Is this the official release day in EU or is it tomorrow?
Does anyone know if the norwegian version will have english subtitles or just Scandinavian? I love to play games with subtitles on.
It's not like the previous games, all SPECIAL starts at 1 in FO4, so it's worth doing your research on the type of character you want - I found this helpful:So, how much can you increase particular stat when playing? For example if I start with 5 agility can I get it to 10 somehow?

Just to confirm: I can have dogmeat AND one humanoid companion with me without any perks or anything?

What he says about INT seems particularly interesting and has biased me towards starting with an INT of 8 or 9.
There's no level cap, and you can choose to increase stats instead of buying perks at each level up, so I'm pretty sure you could technically max out every stat and get every perk, but that would take an insanely long time if the levelling works like Skyrim's (levelling takes exponentially longer each time).
I would love to know how many "free" stats we can get though, like from bobbleheads. Is there only one bobblehead per stat? Do magazines give special points? Trying to work out whether to start with 9 INT or 8.
Hmm, just now finding out that some names are voiced.
I'm assuming it's only Codsworth that says your name and it's not completely voiced right?

Can you summarize his most important points about INT for this thread?

Still need to have that game, Meaty.

Sure. I should emphasise that there is obviously a hefty element of speculation, but the upshot of it is that due to the bonuses INT gives in terms of increased XP, in the long run it pays off to get your INT high as early as possible in the game, because of its knock on benefits of allowing you to level up faster and therefore earn all the other perks etc more quickly.
As I said, it is speculation based on what is known about SPECIAL at the moment, so may end up being incorrect, but it seems logical and the idea of being able to level up as efficiently as possible is appealing to me.
I read somewhere that subtitles on the PS4 version are broken - is this a wide spread problem for people or just an instance?

Keep in mind you can go the other direction with this and sacrifice INT entirely, and get Idiot Savant in LCK as early as possible instead. Either way without a level cap it is now much more beneficial to make considerations for XP bonuses.

I think it is pretty much confirmed that INT works like this to increase exp rewards from doing stuff. Although most people will probably want to have a final INT of at least 6 anyway, to not border off an entire wing of the upgrade system. I get that an INT of 9 compared with, say 2, will probably lead to a huge difference in gained xp over the course of the game, but how important is 9 compared with 6?
Probably been asked already but what time do the reviews come?

Very true, and goes to show the level of thought put into this system. I can't wait to get stuck in!
Yeah that's a sensible take on it. I think if no two people can agree on a single best assignment of points, it shows Bethsoft have done their job of making a balanced system.I'm supremely confident this is a terrible idea
If anyone has ANY experience playing through RPGs on hard difficulties, they'll know that the early game is always the hardest. Always. Less options available, less gear, less stuff, basically you'll be battling early.
You shouldn't be compromising your earlygame to just boost intelligence to get fast levelling. The earlygame is just the toughest bit. If you level up a little slower that's not a terrible thing, the enemies are semi-leveled anyway.
5 intelligence for scrapper then bobblehead for hi tech mods should be more than enough.
Plus, every point you sunk into intelligence for faster levelling is another perk point you have to spend levelling up agility/luck/charisma whatever to get to the high end perks like gun fu and the lvl 9 luck, and the settlement charisma perk. So those "fast" level ups you got are being wasted because you need to spend more points in Special, and the level ups only take longer as your level climbs.
Anybody have that release time by region chart around?
I'm having some trouble finding it online.
No. It unlocks first in AU/NZ.

Any missable bobblehead at the beginning of the game?
I mean, like unreachable once you leave the area.
14 hours...
