Fallout 4 to feature Nvidia Gameworks

Saw this on reddit and just had to post it. :D

Devs under Bethesda umbrela don't need Gameworks to be bug fests. They manage to crap out on their own. Most recent one is Skyrim with its no instruction set for CPUs policy. Every single game under Bethesda was complete mess on launch. I fear with such late Gameworks announcement we might have another batman on our hands.
 
This.

So many bitter little people on this forum over a graphics card lol

Have you never played a Bethesda game? They are always bug fests for months and months - largely due to the incredible scale of their games.

That said, people not ordering due to this make me laugh. Talk about cutting your nose off. Like it will make any difference to anything.
 
Fallout three and new Vegas runs perfectly on my system. No stability issues. I did find odd ingame bugs but didnt have any sort of graphical bugs or optimisation issues. We will see how fallout 4 fairs in this department.
 
Having just played it all the way through, I can confirm it is still a mess of bugs. I installed the unofficial patch but still crashed a lot. I haven't F5'd so much since the older days of fps shooters.
Modding the ini file to use more cores and threaded AI helped, but the recommended core count of 2 still left me crashing. Setting to 4 alleviated a lot of crashing but gave zero performance gain.
This was on Win 10 so some of the blame could go towards that. Running it on my Win 7 work laptop while waiting for a new mobo was much more stable (but visual quality was cranked right down).

I loved FO3 and that still isn't 100% stable.

It's either InumHWthreads or the dreaded sound crash.

Given Inum was fixed in later exes I would say it's the sound crash, in which case just convert the sound files to wav and run the GNR fixed patch.
 
Still play through fallout 3 and the cores set 1 in The ini file was the only thing that made it completely stable, not 1 crash in 200 hours.

Hope fallout 4 lives upto my expectation.

Also pre ordered mine.
