Fallout 4 has gone gold; leaked gameplay vids

It worked fine in DA:I.

I loved DA:Origins but it always seemed strange when your character was silent and every single other person had a voice.

There's always going to be a trade off, but I think DA/Mass Effect showed you can still have great strong rpg elements with voiced protags vs games that have silent ones.

again, disagree completely but to each his own. wish fallout didn't go to voiced protag, we already have enough of those as it is.
 
Please don't discuss story stuff without tags, even if it's only to characterize it.

See, shut up with this kind of thing as well man. You might as well be spoiling it. Nobody gives a shit what you think about the ending.

One has to wonder whether a thread which is fairly liable to have spoilers given the discussion is partially about leaks is the best place to be for you guys, given you seem so sensitive about spoilers that even a characterisation of the story will ruin it for you. God knows how you poor lads make it through reviews, when they're just throwing around shit like 'story was poor' around willy nilly like a bunch of arseholes.

1. There's a spoiler thread already
2. Show me a game review from a decent outlet that talks about the ending specifically rather than the story in general

Hell I can't even remember the Mass Effect 3 reviews being that detailed about the conclusion.

Well, we have a spoiler thread for stuff like that. Anyone who posts story spoilers of any kind will be reported and banned. You know how it is, this is a thread created to watch and discuss gameplay, not story spoilers.

Edit: I sound like a dick, but that's the way the cookie crumbles I'm afraid.

I don't think they're being unreasonable given there is thread dedicated to spoilers. I'm not sure many reviews would specifically address the ending either. At the end of the day, I think using spoiler tags about particularly sensitive stuff is a matter of courtesy.
 
It has become rather annoying. What can be done though?

I think in this day and age of the Internet and leaks.....devs need to be a bit more dynamic and adaptive with their release dates......the game has gone gold for a couple weeks and stores have had their shipments delivered.....if there are already leaks because they have been unable to contain it....then just release the game early and avoid the game being spoiled and let gamers enjoy the game the way you want them to....

Exactly, there was many a time with MGSV, Bloodborne etc where I wanted to just tell you all how amazing (and shitty) some of the story was but I just couldn't outside of the spoiler thread or PM's. Hell, even you warned me a couple of times ;)
 
We have it in the OT with idiots giving "hints" about Star Wars, I've waited for this game for years and I'd quite like to discuss it without fear of being spoiled.
 
Yeah, there's a spoiler thread already. Discuss actual spoilers there, it's simple.

Has there been a game that done that kind of thing in the past? Releasing the game early because some reasons.
I'd love that to happen, personally.
 
Speaking of spoilers, the stream everyone has been watching is currently doing some pretty heavy story stuff now so people may want to avoid it.

They spend probably 70m dollars on marketing based around the release date. It's a huge and very very expensive release with retailer partners all around the world with midnight releases, posters, preorders etc. They will not release early just because a small amount of people got the game early.

Haha! I remember that (sorry!). Resident spoiler-free defence force member, me!
 
Fallout 4 hype.

Sometimes I love their comics.
 
I've been wondering this too. I want a stealth, guns, thief, sneaky-type character and I'm wondering which direction I should go as well.

Hey Krappa, yeah I want to do the same with my character. But I am not sure. Agility looks pretty good. I am going to try to make a build here http://www.nukahub.com/tools/special?s=1&p=1&e=1&c=1&i=1&a=1&l=1 and will post it.

Will try that as well (+ I want to build stuff).
That's where I'm at right now:
http://www.nukahub.com/tools/special?s=3&p=4&e=2&c=5&i=6&a=6&l=2
I'll need AGI and CHA bobbleheads for Ninja and Local Leader, but aside from that, I'm only missing Sniper.

That looks pretty decent. Depending how powerful weapon mods are though, I would possibly go this way to get Blacksmith http://www.nukahub.com/tools/special?s=4&p=4&e=1&c=5&i=6&a=6&l=2
edit: Derp, didn't realize Blacksmith was melee weapon mods only.
 
Someone here also ordered at Gameware.at and got their email shipment confirmation yesterday? In the order management on the homepage it just says, that the shipping process just began, which means it didn't leave the shop yet. If someone receives it today from them, please write it here :P
 
Started playing it tonight. Spent about an hour in the player creator, and about 2 hours in the world.

The game opens so well, I love it. They do well to cover up the jankiness here and there, and it feels so much more polished than the last two. I was worried giving my female lead long hair, as I thought it'd be Like Dragon Age: Inquisition where all the long hairdos are immovable lego hair, but the hair actually moves enough and convincingly that you could tell they put some love into it.

The game functions well enough as a shooter without using VATS, which I love. Everything feels a bit daunting at the moment, but great. They introduce the settlement stuff early on and I have absolutely no interest in it, I'm glad it's optional.

Also, the first armor you can get looks so much worse than the vault dweller default suit. Wish I could get all the armor benefits just wearing the jumpsuit. Crossing my fingers for mods to show up one day!

I've noticed some odd stuttering here and there on PS4 while in 3rd person, not sure if it's exclusive to that view, but first person has been pretty smooth.
 
This is going to blow some people's minds. We have a large contingent here that refuses to believe Bethesda is capable of releasing a game that isn't filled with bugs.

You keep talking about Bethesda releasing a game that isn't filled with bugs like it's some type of achievement or something.
Should be fucking normal in my opinion.

Mine jumped from shipping in progress to shipped this morning. Received a E-Mail that it was shipped yesterday though.
 
It's time for my daily enquiry into if anyone in the UK using simplygames has had their order despatched yet?!

Still holding out a desperate hope for a Saturday arrival...

Usually the mail is the last thing I get and mostly one day after the mail, I also get the game. Would be really nice if it's arriving today. I'm at work though, so if you get yours today, PM me or write it into this thread. :o

Ordered from Gameseek here and nothing yet. I get the feeling Simply, Gameseek and TGC will all start sending out around the same time once stock comes in. Probably sometime today, tomorrow at the absolute latest. Calm before the storm.

Yeah, figured these past couple days they will have been focused on get Black Ops out the door on time. We needed a bank holiday weekend, pretty sure that was the main factor in people getting Phantom Pain on Thurs/Fri before release.

How long does it take to reach the "open world" part?

Didn't like the linear tutorial at the beginning in Fallout 3 or Skyrim.
 
Now it's back to this:

Quick question as you're from Germany: do you know if the game will be in English on steam, or will we again get a cut german only version?
I only play my games in english, and was pretty pissed last year when I bought New Vegas and was german only...

Ah okay, I am dumb then lol. I smoked too much and thought it was for gun mods.

Gun mods are in the Int tree and covered in my build, I want them too.
 
But can you imagine the complaints of the folks who just want to play as busty...,

After the thousands who complained were heard I've worked out a deal with Bethesda for some branded Fallout DLC which will let you play as me, it will be out by next spring.

Thank you.

I'm pretty sure it's multilanguage and uncut. The latter is confirmed. I preordered the Xbox One version though, which is multilanguage as well.

Ah good, gun mods look amazing. I'll use your build I think, thanks. Do you plan on sniping? I think I will.
