Got this from the Xbox One Reddit:

Taken from /r/FO4:

I pulled the grid values from here: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/92563/fallout-map-size-in-game-cells

Using the following dimensions:

FO3 = 51x51 (3.4 square miles)

FO4 = 84x84 (9.33 square miles)

Skyrim = 119x94 (14.8 square miles)

If accurate.....Bethesda wasn't entirely telling the truth about being about the same size as Skyrim. It is what it is.

Hmmm. So smaller than Skyrim. Sucks because i put 450 hours into the game (still haven't finished the main story) and explored every inch of the map. I walked everywhere too. I wanted FO4 to have that same space, or even bigger.

Whatever, at least it's bigger than FO3.
 
I'm happy to report the Pipboy app uses the color you have set in the game

Those
feral ghouls
are crazy fast. Never got far into Fallout 3 so not sure if they were like that before. In groups that could get bad on higher difficulties.
 
I want to ask gaf on a scale from 1-10 how excited/hyped are you for Fallout 4?:D

For me its probably at 9/10. Skyrim was probably my only 10:D still haven't been this excited for ages.
9.5/10. One of the most hyped games ever for me. I just crave some new Fallout badly!
 
how are they able to play on the PC?

Bethesda has given out playable PC copies, and by looks of it it's 100% offline meaning it's not connected to Steam in any way. Very ballsy move by Bethesda as they basically put all trust in randos not to create .torrent from 100% offline PC version of FO4.

Ballsy move that they most likely regret now.

Why does map size matter? They have ALREADY said it's a bigger game than Skyrim. Nevermind that the Skyrim map is wider with more non-walkable terrain inside it's play area.

The streamer on right now has been playing for a good while, and hasn't even made it to Diamond City.

TLDR: Map comparisons are irrelevant.

regret because of streamers or because someone already leaked it?
 
How is there someone streaming the PC version? Early copies gone out to reviewers right? So it might be a reviewer? If it had been leaked and cracked it would probably be all over the net by now.
 
I had to stop. I can't spoil it for myself haha

Yeah I think I'm fast approaching my limit for having more spoiled, especially the open world exploring. If the map seems small to some already playing I really don't want one of the main appeals of these games - exploration and thrill of discovery, to be dashed so soon.

That said,

That revolver rifle looked fucking awesome. Gonna love customizing guns in this.
 
I'm sorry if it's been answered before, but do we know yet if people other than your butler robot say your name in conversations? The one you can choose out of those presets like McFly etc.
 
Meh,I really hope theyve done a good job with optimization,I'm gonna be playing this with a 560 Ti (1 GB) and considering I've played through Witcher 3 on this,shouldnt have problem in theory

Don't forget all the vault, cave, and subway / highway tunnel spelunking as well.
 
i probably will use this app while playing so long as it's convenient to do so

does the game pause while you browse your inventory and whatnot?

Disappointing
 
Not gonna take part in either revering or hating on the map size, but to me it's actually interesting that it seems to be significantly smaller than Skyrim's map. Interesting because almost without exception devs have only made the maps larger when moving onto next gen. Some even a lot larger. Seeing bethesda's new game on next gen actually be smaller than their last game which was on last gen is a bit of a surprise. I do hope that FO4 has a lot of density
underwater since almost 1/3 of the map is water and the map as a whole is smaller than Skyrim
 
I have very hard time trusting these FO4 map measurements. Shit is thrown to the wall based on one running video and few leaked map layouts without any knowledge of scale.

So with 25% of a fusion core remaining, just kinda wandering around it took about 7-8 minutes for it to deplete.

So lets say Core @ 25% lasts ~8 minutes. That is ~32 minutes for 100% Core and with Int 9 perk you can double duration of Core, so you are looking at ~1h of Power Armor gameplay / 100% Core.

Thanks for infos! :)
 
Nov 10 feels so far now that so many people have it :(
Ugh, I hear that! I wish pubs would just break street date when this happens and open the flood gates. Its not guna hurt anyone. Every game leaks early these days. Just send word out to retailers to sell it, pleeeeease.
*cries*
