I've been wondering this myself. The shooting in general seems to be much improved, however I wouldn't be surprised to learn that critical hits are exclusive to VATS so character stats still play a big role in the viability of gun combat.

"Divided" from the same sort of people that were incredibly skeptical of Skyrim from the beginning. Internet message board users. Who are not what made Skyrim a widely popular game.

Anyone knows if you get XP for companion kills?

Yes. Whenever Dogmeat killed something I got XP for it.
What stats are everyone going for? I think 3 strength for armor mods, 6 perception (to be raised to 8 for sniper), 1-3 endurance (no idea), 3-4 charisma (2 gives dude killer, 3 solo benefits, 4 extra dog vats hit), intelligence 4 (4 hacker, want eventually 6 for high tech mods), agility 6 (good for AP, want 8-10 eventually), 3 luck (bloody mess). Does this seem like a good all around build with a gun focus?
Go to the PC thread, but tell him that 900 dollars for a decent gaming laptop, even in 2015, is just pushing it. Decent mobility GPUs don't turn up in the 3 digit price bracket.
Really? I don't remember so much negativity about the game as it was releasing. But it was a while ago so I could be remembering wrong I suppose. Either way I don't think some people are going to let the graphics of the game go with out criticism this time.
Apparantly they are both 1080/30.
Good. So annoying in FO3, can't remember if NV was same, when companion OHK's enemy and you don't get any XP because you didn't do certain percent of damage to said enemy.
$900 gets you a very nice desktop build. Unless he specifically wants a laptop to carry it around and game i'd suggest a desktop.

"Crawl Out Through the Fallout" is such a ridiculously appropriate song for them to use, I actually thought it had been commissioned for the game;
The highest is actually on xbox with 96 metascore http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim and no I don't think it will top it. Low 90s is my guess.
It does!

It does have him. You can hear him in the very first trailer.
2 Strength+1 bobblehead for mods
3 Perception+1 bobblehead for lockpicking. Sniper perk at 8 looks terrible, not worth it in a min max build
1 Endurance+1 bobblehead because if you can't outrun a laser beam you should quit and go back to Call of Duty
xxx Charisma+1 bobblehead, dogmeat perk is pretty radical apparently not to mention inspirational and trade route thingy, but the trade route 1 is lategame
4-5 intelligence+1 bobble
7 agility, not fucking around I want Ninja and I want it now
7 luck and I'm going for the Irish perk because that looks nutso, and better crits and crit banking should be illegal

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
I'm seeing a mid 80s. Review community will compensate for Skyrim PS3 troubles by being a lot more critical on this version. Then again 80's would be a great score for a good game and a game like this is a perfect game to give it to even if its for political reasons as fans will be too busy playing to care and people who feel Bethesda needs to have their day in court will be happy as well.
I just hope the game's really solid and doesn't crash on me. I've put hundreds if not thousands of hours into Skyrim but I hope Bethesda were able to capture the really annoying bugs that were in that game in this one before shipping.
I love it! Having a companion that can level you up would make it feel like a natural extension of my body. Sort of like a third hand or second penis... things that would be nice to have as long as they don't get in the way.

thank god for that, in New Vegas I had to install a "personal vault" mod to store all the crafting stuff I scavenged lol
It really does seem that way, doesn't it?
But like you said, I'll let the others rant and rave either for or against the game. I'll be too busy playing the game too care much either way.

88 on MC is my guess.
Wondering this as well. I'm leaning towards investing heavily in Agility and Luck if VATS is required for crits.

For $900? I'd try craigslist or ebay. I have a laptop with a 970m in it and very happy with performance. I wouldn't go anything less that personally. Plays everything great but I paid $1400 for it at release earlier in the year so maybe you can find a used one for that price (ASUS g751 btw). There is also a gaming laptop thread here you can check out.

Doubt it. Mid to high 80s is my guess. I think the new dialog system will turn some people off.
Looks pretty much identical to my build. I thought of stopping charisma at 3 points to get the lone wanderer perk and then adding a few more to luck and agility though.

Who's broken street date god damn it i need to play today
Yes, I'm hoping mods have given permission to post today because VPN shenanigans.
Hmm true only a 4 in perception is really needed. High luck has some awesome perks, but level 4 and 5 seem sub par. Might have to rethink this, but stuff like endurance does add hitpoints although the perks are very weak. I'd like to get at least 6 in luck eventually, might start it at 5 or so instead.
You can raise a stat each level or choose a perk, right? And are bobble heads in the game that add to special like prior games?

lol same.
Any modders know if it will be possible to make the protag silent during gameplay but still talk during the dialog parts

Yes and Yes.
I didn't choose that much perks so far. I level'd up some stats and choose the perks to unlock locks and hack terminals. That's always the first thing to do. I hate it when there are doors I can't unlock yet. I'll try to max out that and do the rest later.
That'd be awesome. I'm still trying to tinker out my SPECIAL build, i had it on vault111 but its down now
The guy said he's posting the OT tomorrow morning after he gets up, and he said the OT title won't be anything posted here including "graphics never change".
I wouldn't expect him to decide to post it early because some people will be able to do shenanigans to unlock early. That's silly.
Gotta mention that the framerate dips frequently as soon as you enter the city - depending on the enemies on screen. What makes this game go into like 15-20 fps, are close combat fights with any gun.
If an enemy gets too close, while firing at him, the framrate tanks really hard. It can be quite jarring and wasn't obvious at the beginning, because you start in a rural area. That's at least my experience so far.

It's going up around 10 am my time tomorrow (approx. 18 hours from now). That's well before the game becomes available via VPN.

For those who have the game, I found another companion
, and said to dogma to go back to
. I want to switch but I cannot find dogma anymore... any idea ?

I don't expect OT to go up earlier than rules allow [~24h before release], just would be nice. Thats all. Also isn't Ninja based in EU so OT is going up quite early anyways, at least for NA people?
That answers my question :b Also very cool, can't wait to smell that fresh Fallout OT. I'm expecting some rads to be there for that added flavor.

If I got the timezones correct, that's 2 hours before the NZ VPN unlock, so like 4am EST
Oh cool, I didn't watch all the media so I thought he was out
Fallout without Perlman is not Fallout.
