Will this be the first console game to natively output 4k?

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Holy shit this is awesome. Modded Skyrim in 4K on PSPRo. Fucking in.

 

[MUnited83]

No external assets.
LMAO

 

[CONCH0BAR]

What does the custom assets thing mean?
Like you can't get an M1911 handgun because it's not built with Bethesda assets?

Exactly. They'd have to tweak the stats on the pistol already in the game to make a "weapon mod".

 

[LelouchZero]

Enhanced lighting and graphics features are also coming to Fallout 4 on the PS4 Pro.

Mod support will come to Skyrim first. We and Sony have worked hard to make this possible. Mods on PlayStation 4 will allow you to modify and create your own content by using our Creation Kit available here. You will not be able to upload external assets with your PlayStation 4 mods, but you will be able to use any assets that come with the game, as most mods do. By creating a Bethesda.net account, you’ll be able to browse and try mods right from within the game.

We are excited finally to get modding to our PlayStation fans who have supported us for so long. Modding has been an important part of our games for over 10 years, and we hope to do even more in the coming year for all our players, regardless of platform.

After the work is complete on Skyrim, we’ll be updating Fallout 4 for both mods and PS4 Pro. We expect Fallout 4 to take advantage of the PS4 Pro in 4k along with enhanced lighting and graphics features.

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Balance is restored and everyone's a winner, result!

 

[gossi]

Will this be the first console game to natively output 4k?

No, Elder Scrolls Online from Zeni/Bethesda supports Native 4K at launch.

 

[Matush]

Fuck, I sold my F4 copy last week, I guess I will wait for GotY edition down the line.

 

[5taquitos]

Wait if there's no external assets...then it's completely useless to have mods. Wow. That's what Sony got stuck on? The entire point of modding?

I mean, it's better than nothing though right? Like you can still get unlimited inventory, new quests (that use existing assets), tweaked items, etc.

Sure it's not full-featured, but it's a far sight better than nothing at all.

 

[KKRT00]

Native? Screens are at 1400p

 

[neurosyphilis]

Awesome, now I can get Skyrim for my PlayStation instead of my Xbox One.

 

[ZeroCDR]

Fantastic, glad they didn't let this stand. It was a tremendously bad look.

Very happy to hear about PS4 Pro support, looking forward to mods taking advantage of that extra power

 

[etta]

Exactly. They'd have to tweak the stats on the pistol already in the game to make a "weapon mod".

No crazy outfits either, then.
That's like 80% of the reason people mod.

 

[Megawarrior]

Enhanced lighting and graphics features are also coming to Fallout 4 on the PS4 Pro.

....they are really tempting me to rebuy this...

 

[RoboPlato]

Native 4K for Skyrim? Nice

 

[Prologue]

competition is good!

 

[Elios83]

Native 4K for Skyrim on the Pro is a better selling point than mods to me

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Sony: We need 4K and HDR + enhanced graphical features for FO4 and Skyrim for PS4 Pro.

Bethesda: We need to have mods on your platform.

Both: Deal.

 

[MuchoMalo]

I dread to think of how Bethesda games will run in 4k on a console. Also, where is 4k DOOM?

 

[epmode]

No external assets is one hell of a downside.

 

[Hanmik]

How does modding on xbox one work..? Is it different to this?

 

[Elatreus]

Nice one. Will almost certainly pick up Skyrim on PS4 now.

 

[Tecnniqe]

No crazy outfits either, then.
That's like 80% of the reason people mod.

;(
Shame.

 

[Bitch Pudding]

Native 4K

Yay!

I mean, it's a 5 year old PS3 game.

Booooooo

We expect Fallout 4 to take advantage of the PS4 Pro in 4k along with enhanced lighting and graphics features.

Not a 5 year old PS3 game, but probably not native 4k, either.

 

[Hystzen]

I will wait til it actually is up and running would laugh it few months Bethesda like nah mods ain't coming to PS4

 

[Triggerhappytel]

I wonder what changed....

Seriously. It's only been about, what, two weeks since they said it was out of the question. Couldn't they have just sat on it if they were that close to reaching an agreement?!

 

[Jarod McChicken]

Will this be the first console game to natively output 4k?

Along with Mantis Burn Racing, TES Online and The Last of Us Remastered yes.

 

[liquidtmd]

No bonkers costumes from other franchises, no nudity, Jesus guys you're killing me here

 

[F0rneus]

I mean, it's better than nothing though right? Like you can still get unlimited inventory, new quests (that use existing assets), tweaked items, etc.

Sure it's not full-featured, but it's a far sight better than nothing at all.

It's complete horseshit. Xbone versions can still get new armors, weapons, weather systems, new areas of new assets...

PS4 gets none of that. It's horseshit and I can't believe that this is what held things up with Sony. New content in mods. Jesus it's the entire point of modding.

 

[GreekWolf]

Welp, and there's the entire next year of my life.

Rise of the Tomb Raider, Skyrim Remastered and Fallout 4 on the Pro.

I'm feeling warm fuzzies :3

 

[Karak]

Whats the memory allotment?

 

[Gaiaknight]

Starting to get really happy i pre-ordered my pro

 

[AmuroChan]

Fantastic news. Will preorder Skyrim to play on my PS4 Pro.

 

[DangerMouse]

Oh man, that's going to look so good in 4K.

 

[Trogdor1123]

I blamed Bethesda for the screw up on this and now I'm giving them the credit for fixing it. Well done!

 

[StrongBlackVine]

I will wait til it actually is up and running would laugh it few months Bethesda like nah mods ain't coming to PS4

It says mods AT launch.You won't have to wait.

 

[Raptor]

If there is a brutal gore mod for fallout 4 I will buy it on the spot.

 

[ShadowKingpin]

Smart move, Sony!

 

[Max_Po]

Native? Screens are at 1400p

did you inform the church elders?

 

[Wereroku]

Whats the memory allotment?

Probably still 900mb but it doesn't matter without external assets everything will be tiny anyway.

 

[Trace]

"No external assets", 95% of mods are cut out right there.

 

[CrichtonKicks]

No external assets would knock out about 80% of the mods I use.

 

[SpaceWolf]

So any idea when we can expect mods for Fallout 4, outside of "after Skyrim"?

 

[NoFaceNico]

I mean, it's better than nothing though right?

So this is what it feels like to be a MN9 backer...

 

[biteren]

one of my favorite kind of mods are weapon mods, a little bummed you cant have custom modeled weapons.

 

[paperspace]

No external assets, huh. So we'll have a FoV-slider and infinite inventory.

Still better than nothing but I don't see why we should be limited in this manner, while the other platform isn't.

 

[schaft0620]

I am not even mad that Skyrim is my most anticipated game this fall.

 

[bananafactory]

Native 4k?? Hot damn

 

[Wereroku]

So this is what it feels like to be a MN9 backer...

As a mn9 backer I am happy I got something that I find somewhat entertaining. Much like this getting rid of the backpack stuff will be nice along with other stuff.

 

[F0rneus]

I blamed Bethesda for the screw up on this and now I'm giving them the credit for fixing it. Well done!

Sony did not approve external content, like new swords, armor, items. 95% of good mods. How is Bethesda to blame for that? Sony literally refused the main reason to mod. New content is a no go.

PS4 is now stuck with limited access to simplistic mods only thanks to Sony.
