    First we get the XCOM2 announcement, now a semi-official teaser for F4 - this could be 2010 again for gaming :D

    You mean 1998, or maybe 2008 :P

    So excited for this though

    Really hoping this is going to be a proper reveal trailer and not a 10 second teaser until e3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    hour and a half to go :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 937 ✭✭✭Dair76


    Gamespot (I know, I know) are saying it's current gen only, which is good to hear.

    Wouldn't really expect anything else from a game like this. Given that they will probably be increasing the size of the world dramatically and who knows what else it would be difficult to get it on everything. Same as witcher 3 and arkham knight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Ant695


    The teaser site went live early but its down now. Ign are expecting a trailer and more info at 3 O'clock and rumours of a 20-30 minute gameplay video at e3.

    Fallout 4 - Official Trailer




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,454 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    BoS.
    Dogmeat.
    Capital Wasteland (I think, or is it Boston?).
    Enclave.

    Seems to be the same world, looking far better than before.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    I believe it's Boston

    Also, Mister Handy, and Ghouls! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,454 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    Boston it is. Nice one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Was there a release date/window?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,777 ✭✭✭flyingsnail




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    I should probably go play Fallout3 before even looking into this trailer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,230 ✭✭✭Wetbench4


    Maybe the 111 on his back means the release date? Nov 1st???? :eek: Just wishful thinking outta me, it probably just the vault number.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,387 ✭✭✭glynf


    Planning on a play thru of 3 myself with NMC’s Texture pack.

    Hopefully Fallout 4 before end of the year.

    Looks great,

    I hope it doesnt feel too much the same as fallout 3 though, but i imagine if the storyline and wandering experience is strong enough that wont matter.

    To be honest the new XCOM trailer has excited me alot more than this trailer. I am hopeful however.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Ant695


    Looks awesome. Think I'll have to replay fallout 3 and new vegas to tide me over until release.

    Possible. They did something similar with skyrim 11.11.11

    For a company with so many sequels, They sure do like 1's :D

    Blasphemy!!!! Heretic!! etc. :pac:

    I'd recommend you also play through New Vegas. The one big criticism I have of Fallout 3 is that Bethesda don't (or didn't at least back then) "get" the Fallout world & it's wierd & wacky humour. Obsidian did when they made New Vegas. I hope that Bethesda have been educated on the error of their ways with regards Fallout 3.
    I'm also bit ambivalent about the whole flying airship thing in the official trailer. It's a bit too steam-punk looking and out of sorts with the game's history, which brings me back to my point about Bethesda not understanding the Fallout world. Vertibirds, yes, Old-school rockets and retro-crazy looking airplanes (as seen in New Vegas), yes. A steam-punk looking airship? no. Fallout is not steam-punk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    Actually, the brotherhood of steel
    used airships in the lore, as early as fallout:tactics

    The only Fallout game I've never played ... I stand corrected :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    it's actually some really cool lore too if you look into it :)


    edit: sorry meant to add this - narrated by Ron (War, War never Changes) Perlman - the second cinematic of Fallout:Tactics, the origin of the brotherhood and their airships :)



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,452 ✭✭✭✭The_Valeyard


    Wonder when it's set. During the time of fallout 3, after in New Vegas or a prequel?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 937 ✭✭✭Dair76


    Release date will surely be this year, given that you can already pre-purchase it on Steam, GMG etc.

    The War was 2077
    1 was???
    2 was 2041
    3 was 2277
    Vegas 2281
    I think it will be after 3 due to the water thing.

    Some rumours:

    Its out in October
    Map is 3 times bigger than skyrim.
    1st DLC is november

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    Unless there's a specific storyline regarding one of the prequels it doesnt need a set date to be set in, provided it's within the average timeline of the vaults opening or being opened, destroyed sabotaged internally, water chips running out (hehe) etc..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,452 ✭✭✭✭The_Valeyard


    I am very interested in a collectors edition.

    Have the New Vegas CE with the casino chips, playing cards, art booklet and vault covers.



    Be interested in another one for Boston

    Holy Crap. A working pitboy!



    OK so the app will work on your phone/tablet regardless ...but a working PITBOY?!!! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    OK now I really need to go play Fallout....Steam sales added more **** to my list last few days, but think I will bump Fallout up to the top(once I finish Wolfenstein)

    I hope its just "prototype", work in progresss. You wouldnt need a melee weapon at the start of F4 with this on your hand :) Feels a little bit to "plastic" for me.
    Something like on sec pic would get to me.
    Overall the news of F4 look great, it was nice to see some gameplay instead of short clips and loads of talking like a lot of others publishers/devs are doing. They even found a space to add minecraft in to i. The world goes crazy :P Probably asking for ios/android app for managing the build outpoust sould be to much?

    Well there goes November :D


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 28,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Shiminay


    Now, here's a thing, the first time I played a Fallout game was only this year and it was New Vegas. A couple of hours in, I became cross with myself for not having jumped on this particular bandwagon sooner :D So having seen the extended showing from E3, I'm very impressed and I can't wait to get stuck in come November :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,061 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    III is completely superior to New Vegas if you havent played that yet...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,761 ✭✭✭✭degrassinoel


    1&2 is superior in storytelling and humour :P

    feck off, i'm old and i like old things! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,454 ✭✭✭Dave_The_Sheep


    I'm seriously considering the Collector's Edition for this at this point. It looks excellent (though will doubtless be a bugfest on launch), crafting and building particularly. I can see myself losing a few hundred hours if not more.

    I think it might be appropriate to book the week of the 10th off :p

    thats my November and December out the window


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 811 ✭✭✭yoshiktk


    Amazon preorders on Pipboy are already gone. Priced at 120$.

    Already done.

    Building your own settlement is a game in itself!!


    Defo buying the CE edition. Looks like a good game. No real change with the combat system.

    Wonder what's the map size?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,061 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    3 times the size of Skyrim apparently.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    Well have the standard edition pre-ordered.

    We haven't seen much of melee. Shooting doesn't look stupid inaccurate, though. Then again this was just a trailer, who knows what kind of godmode stuff they had going on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭god's toy

    Yep same here, pipboy sounds fab but really it's not something your gonna use... CDkeys have the game for 40 Euro for PC via steam.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 8,601 CMod ✭✭✭✭Sierra Oscar


    Can anyone remember if Fallout 3 / NV came with a physical map for the retail versions of the game? Was wondering if Fallout 4 would come with a map, but now that I think of it I am not sure if the other Fallout games did.
