Have we any indication of a launch date?

People are hyping for October 23rd. Sounds about right tbh.

One thing I do kind of want to see is the Skyrim levelling mechanic. It doesn't make sense for the most part that you can shoot a bunch of ghouls in the metro and level up your speech skill because of it. With that, though, I'd also want it not to be easy to just glitch the game to level up skills, such as in Skyrim. I guess I can't have my cake and eat it.

It's a single player game. If you don't like ways of abusing the level up mechanic then don't do it

Agree with you about using the Skyrim way of levelling, feels better for immersion.

This is going to be a 2015 game for sure they would not have put the pre-order page & a price up on Steam could even be late September. I think its going to be stunning on PC especially with mods @ 4K I hope they also create some worthy DLC over the post release year like they did with Fallout 3.

Most likely the DLC is being planned now & the main game in final beta stages

I'm installing Fallout 3 now with these mods and play through it in anticipation of 4;

Using the Nexus Mod Manager?

The trouble is, 3 with those mods will look better than 4.

Just got to level 100 lock pick on NV and found my way inside Hidden Valley to start power armour training. Damn I love this franchise.

That vaseline smear.

Everything just looks so blurry n' bloomy with ENB.

It's depth of field, it's how vision actually works.

I wonder how many Vaults will be in Fallout 4 and what twisted experiments will have been carried on the inhabitants.

If you have cataracts maybe.

Who said that?

 

[Smokey Deza]

Really enjoyed Fallout 3.

Also in disbelief this is 7 years old. I mean really wtf.

60fps version of the OP's trailer. Much smoother.

 

[EMarkM]

Massive Fallout 3 fan here who never played NV, or any of the previous games.

In addition to this, I actually loved the ending to FO3, loved the VATS system, and really, really hope that there is no co-op or online element to FO4 unless it has absolutely zero impact on the single player game.

I'd certainly like to see a greater variety of enemies, crave more of that lovely 1950s music, and hope that I start to hear "heroic" announcements about my character's achievements over the radio.

And, as reported in one of the previous threads (I think) a map that is multiple times the size of Skyrim's? Oh, yes please, mother!

love the series but at £49.99 pre-order they can suck my spuds, I won't be buying it.

£22 if you know where to look, i.e the OP.

That sounds awfully tempting...
