Forgot to change that.

lol doh

That's the hard thing when you've got so many moving parts. Something is going to slip through the crack.

 

[Stiler]

My prediction - Initially a holiday 15 release date. Delayed to Q1 16 sometime in September.

don't think Sept is in Q1...

 

[Kacho]

They've changed it, now it's only "TBA" http://store.bethsoft.com/fallout-4.html

LOL whoopsie

 

[DOWN]

Would be amazing if it has a November release

 

[Dan]

This fall would be brilliant. It looks like a relatively sparse holiday season for my tastes, so Fallout 4 would fill the gap wonderfully.

don't think Sept is in Q1...

He means it will be delayed in September 2015 to early 2106.

 

[wingwah]

This is a golden age for PC gaming

Don't be ridiculous.

 

[Slermy]

All in for the "surprise, it's out now!" reveal during the Bethesda conference.



Where and when?

You know what would be amazing? If they announced the release day on the release date.

I mean imagine that? They have a big showing at E3, then at the end they say "You can buy and play fallout 4....now."

I always wondered why no one has tried a release like that, I mean a series like this is going to sell PERIOD, so why not generate amazing excitement/hype by doing a super huge surprise release like that? Totally blow everyone's socks off.

I think the problem is that in a retail ecosystem, it'd be hard to keep everyone from stockers, to managers, to basic employees quiet about such a release. If everything were fully digital, then it could happen. Actually, I think Nintendo's pulled this off a few times with some of the eShop releases paired with Nintendo Directs.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

If for real, going to be an insane holiday season.

If this happens it will take an actual Great War to ever top it.

 

[Gorilla Shark]

OMG Life would be awesome if this was a 2015 game... Please Bethesda....

 

[Shredderi]

Let's fucking go 2015!

 

[Ape]

I'd like more same year announcements of games.

 

[Nick_C]

Makes the most sense given everything. I'll be quite surprised if it's slated for next year.

Maybe if it's confirmed at E3 they can change that snarky thread title.

 

[Tigress]

dude look at your avatar

that's a bigger open world game in 2015 with a lesser budget than this



im bummed out, yeah, what I meant is that this rarely happens with me so it should say something about how bad I think it looks

but, yeah, we're already discussing it elsewhere. still glad its coming

You know, the other fallout threads are already been ruined with this crap (you can't talk about anything else related to FO cause it gets drowned out) can we at least keep it out of a thread that this is very off topic to?

 

[Mindman]

I firmly believe this.

Can't wait.

Me too. This game has been in development for years already.

[King Beyond the wall]

I god damn knew it. This could be the most stacked fall in history.

How am I going to find time to play both fallout 4 and persona 5? I looking forward to both so much!

 

[WhatsintheBox]

im excited to see a limited edition.

[RootCause]

im excited to see a limited edition.

Yeah, that's what I'm waiting for.
This fall is going to be packed.

 

[FullMetaltech]

Colin Moriarty was right all along? Well I'll be damned.

Im hoping he was right about the 4 years of dev time this has been through. But i wouldnt be suprised if it gets moved back for more polish.

 

[Portugeezer]

If you say it enough times it will become true. 2015 BELIEVE!

 

[BobTheFork]

Hell Yeah, THIS is how you announce. None of this announce an announcement for a game that just getting off the ground. We all knew this was being made; Announce it near E3 for a fall release and get the fuck on with it!

 

[Croatoan]

Guys, what if we get a Mass Effect this year?

Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Bloodborne, Mass Effect... Best year?

 

[FStop7]

don't think Sept is in Q1...

I meant the delay to Q1 16 will be announced in September 15.

 

[Nirolak]

Guys, what if we get a Mass Effect this year?

Mass Effect isn't this fiscal year, so it will be April 2016 at the earliest.

 

[Dual Blade]

I just will not believe. Too good to be true!

 

[Drazgul]

October 2015, come on!

 

[Salsa]

are you like, reading what you're quoting?

and the previous post

or my original edited out one

 

[M0nochromatic]

I hope it's Out this Fall

 

[Seth Balmore]

Don't do this to meeeeee not on the same year as MGSV and Persona 5 I'M GOING TO NEED 48 HOUR DAYS FFS

 

[Blue Ninja]

Come on, Beth.

 

[Professor Renegade]

Holy crap 2015? I bet it's gonna be an October or
December release.

 

[Fushichou187]

I hope it's Out this Fall

lol they do seem to like the seamless transition from title to release date with that.

 

[Capella]

I'd like more same year announcements of games.

Me too. I hate the year or more wait where they drip feed us new information.

 

[fork_bomb]

I hope it's Out this Fall

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

PSN will be hammered with preorders the moment it goes up.

 

[Fushichou187]

Me too. I hate the year or more wait where they drip feed us new information.

totally. I get that platform holders like to tease titles out-- particularly exclusives-- to give their base something to look forward to, but ideally we'd only have 6mo. max gap between reveal and release.

In the world of Early Access and Open Betas however, release tracks seem to be dragging on even longer, but probably because the player is being involved with it at an even earlier date :\

 

[phen0m24]

I'm going to need more hours in the day, come fall.

for

Spoiler

The Taken King

Yes, I think we all will. Looks fantastic.

 

[Queen of Hunting]

doom and fallout this year ?

or maybe doom beta this year and fallout 4 this year. then next year doom 4 releases

 

[Wolfie5]

Oh man, I hope this is true. I will be there day one. Been looking forward to a new Fallout game.

So....

Wasn't Fallout 3 revealed at E3 2008?

[The Praiseworthy]

Dear god let it be 2015 please!

 

[Red Hood]

I honestly expected as much. A game like Fallout 4 doesn't need years of hype to build momentum. Announce that shit, release it within 6 months and a fuckton of people will be running towards it. But at the same time I thought I might have been a little optimistic. Can't wait for their conference in 2 weeks!

 

[Blue Ninja]

No, there was an announcement trailer before that. The one featuring The Ink Spots.

 

[Tengrave]

Lordy. If we get MGSV and Fallout within months of each other, that would be insane. Fall will be packed as ever.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

nice!

The teaser trailer dropped before E3 2007 (June 5th) which noted a Fall 2008 release. The second trailer was shown at E3 2008, with the game's actual release being October of that year.

You guys were right. But yeah, hope it comes out this year.

 

[Fushichou187]

But yeah, hope it comes out this year.

Well we won't have to wait long to find out! There are a number of signs that point to a 2015 release though, so that's encouraging
