I agree 100%, especially in a game like Fallout. There should be minimal settings to change these types of systems. If you don't like it, mod it. If you're on a console fuck you.

Hodj, suck on this: Soldier of Fortune (2000) has a gore system better suited to Fallout's original design doc than FO4 has.

This is false and this entire argument is stupid.

The dismemberment gore isn't integral to the Fallout experience. It's a clownish realization of the gorish intent of the game. A less dramatic dismemberment system could actually help improve the style and experience of the game if one wanted more realism. Telling someone who doesn't like the...

Lone wanderer level 3: When adventuring without a companion, you take 50% less damage and carry weight increases by 200 I'm glad that they have this to balance out people who generally don't like having companions. 50% less damage is huge but if your playstyle takes a lot of damage your...

Another perk map, should have same info as wiki. http://i.imgur.com/Ipbu9Zh.png

The perk list is basically complete: Fallout 4 perks - The Fallout wiki - Fallout: New Vegas and more - Wikia I don't know how they completed it though, since I imagine there's no way to cheat up your perks on console versions? I don't really know how crits work but I'm a little dubious...

Yep. Endurance (a level 10 perk) giving +2 END is strong evidence of that. This is also how it works in Fallout Shelter which is technically the latest Fallout game... Would be interesting if SPECIAL works like stats in D&D where it scales exponentially. Ex: 18 is a typical strong man...

finally, the perk list: [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/3r5qhl/spoiler_perks_organized_by_their_letter_in_special/]

I don't even know of any other forums like this one, with pretty much exclusively high level min/max discussion on popular games, though I suppose I wouldn't know. EJ is basically dead, back when I played WoW it was the #1 place for end-game discussion. Gamefaqs is dying but usually has...

So who is going to wake up at 6AM with me?

I remember doing that for skyrim and all the VPN services got wrekt from overusage, lol. Anyone use golden frog VPN service before and can affirm it works for steam localization? Also, based on the time change the US just had, midnight NZ is 6AM EST right?

Given what we know about FO4 that could be an optimal build. Why do you say 32 levels? There's basically two reasons people like me are theorycrafting about FO4: 1. It's what we do for fun. 2: We want to play FO4 and it's the closest thing to playing it.

oh come on =\ hang on my wife is home with my second breakfast, this time it's a Steak Bagel from McDonalds instead of pasta (not even a joke...)

Just read a few more of those comics since I liked that one, they were pretty disappointing =\ I'd love a comic that just made fun of film tropes.

agree 100%. In FO3 difficulty increased the exp you got (+50% modifier on hard, -50% modifier on easy). Speaking as a player who generally only plays RPGs on their hardest setting it makes no sense. I want the challenge to be clean and not blurred by extra levels.

I agree with you, Caliane, that would be a good system. Much like my NPC gossip network though it'd be expensive to make. And in the end you'd end up with a very complex and expensive system that wasn't that important. Nothing is sacred. Everything is permitted. As far as the general NPC...

Karma is a shit system and I'm not sad to see it go. Bethesda should grow some balls and build a smart NPC gossip-based network where the reputation hit or gain from an action depends on how many people see it. Kill a nomadic family in cold blood? Zero hit to your reputation. Get caught...

I imagine Survival mode is a separate off/on thing and that very hard is the hardest difficulty setting. Either way whatever difficulty setting gives the highest chance to drop legendary weapons is what I'll choose. I generally don't like it when they tie rewards with difficulty, it makes for...

Congratulations! Having 2+ kids at once must be a nightmare and comes with risks (rest in piece little girl) but man if you wanted 2-3 it'd be nice to just get it done in one shot. If you had 3 kids at 3 year iterations it'd be an extra 6 years before kindergarten and an extra 6 years before...

I think anyone who is real with themselves and has a normal kid thinks this when times are bad. People won't admit it when things are good or in public of course. And those people that are image building on facebook? They've probably thought it the most and that's their way to offset those...

Sorry for not linking. I calculated that each point in Intelligence increases XP gained by AT LEAST 6.666...% (using reasonable assumptions and basic math) : fo4 He thinks it is 10% per point.

Guy has some evidence the int bonus is 10%. It's not definitive without knowing the leveling curve or perks, but 10% would be pretty good.

That's pretty much it. I wouldn't even call it a complete overhaul of the stats/leveling system.

I watched this whole thing, was a bit disappointing since it's the same blind theorycrafting as everything else. We really don't know anything about optimal builds.

I prefer minimal comments in code I read, the people who decide how much to comment all their code then just eventually shit bricks of useless comments bother me more than the guy who comments nothing and I have to figure out what's going on by reading through code. I used to, but for the last...

Nope. Itll probably be the same with a few improvements. In fact I'd say compared to changes made from ES2->3->4->5, FO3->4 has the fewest known changes pre-release.

I'm top ten. It's great.

didn't watch, going to skim over this weekend: I guess this guy did a one health bar, no sleeping/eating/stimpack run of FONV/FO3 or something. I didn't watch those vids but that sounds impressive at the start.

So is anyone else planning on rerolling when they discover their name isn't voiced? I'm usually Tuco in these games but it's such a novel feature (No one else has attempted that, right?) that I feel obligated to use it. If I had to guess what they used as a base for their name selection it'd...

Tunneling makes more sense for adventure style games or scene exploration VR (which will be a huge field of VR, it includes things like virtual museums/art galleries, architecture demos, product (ex: cars) demos, animated virtual porn etc) and makes very little sense for other fields of VR. I...

It's a concern but I won't really care until players are saying the game is unfun because of those tradeoffs. A huge space that can occur is the flight mechanics and it seems like they are working with player concerns to improve it while still providing a level of realism.

I really hope we get full perk tree leaks in the next 10 days.

Re: special vs perks, I'm surprised that's the case. I know at first SPECIAL points will be allocated purely to get perks, but I'm assuming that perks will reach a certain level of exhaustion at high levels and SPECIAL will become more attractive.

I like the change as long as vats isnt a laggy buggy piece of shit like it was for me in both fo3 and nv on multiple platforms.

Those who played FO3/NV and the new MadMax game, how do you think vehicles in fallout would work? I feel like it'd negatively affect the game in certain ways.
