People in here actually complaining about graphics like this game's framerate wouldn't chug it into oblivion if it was anything remotely close to Witcher 3.

this is coming out this year
 
It must be pretty shitty to be a dev and create such detailed environments, only for people to turn around and psis all over your efforts because they have a skewed memory of how last-gen games look.

They don't give a damn. They're proud as fuck. They probably feel sorry for people who don't enjoy it I'm sure. I think when you work on a team that big on a game that great, you feel like a small part of something amazing.

Most people on twitter, and that work for dominoes and the people surrounding them are probably overwhelmingly positive. GAF is some sort of weird space time contiuum where if something is so good, it gets bad... idk lol
 
graphically it really isnt even a skip past FO3/NV

but i for one am willing to sacrifice that for frame rate and gameplay potential and a much bigger world

quite frankly im more/less content with FO3 graphics on max settings if the above is applicable
 
With Sony or Microsoft PR/DLC deals? Any bets?

Well, in the E3 thread someone pointed out whenever a box is in front can be indicative of some sort of deal. So, I wouldn't be surprised if Fallout 4 shows up at Microsoft's conference. They could do some stuff at their own that Sunday and then tell people to watch more Monday morning at Microsoft's show.

does anyone like before and after shoots?

Damn, I miss some of the colour already.

Doesn't seem too bad though. Not like before. Also that second shot might be worse with that tv effect if I'm not mistaken.

Still would like about +10% vibrance or something to the after shots...top image still looks a bit too brown.
 
It looks great. If there are going to be comparisons to TW3, I'd much rather it be about the quality of the quest design and writing. Other than that, I don't see the two series being all that comparable as they are two completely different bests.

What makes The Witcher 3 and Fallout 4 "completely different beasts"? They're both open world, next gen, single player RPGS?

I never played Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas without a lot of graphical mods anyway.

Fallout 4 may look ugly FOR YOU.

But for those elite of us who wait for the proper mods you provide us with some amusement....

You see this as how Fallout 4 will look when you play. I see this as the starter template on which the game I will be playing will be built.

Have you honestly looked at the pictures of fallout 3 posted here? It looks pretty awful, you're remembering it without hindsight, the difference is huge.

I guess the scope of the game must be much bigger than its predecessors to have to make visual sacrifices. Honestly though, considering their previous WRPGs in the previous generation, were we expecting FO4 to look more stunning that TW3 (especially given how it suffers from myriad issues on PS4)?

Personally, I just hope they can lock the performance down to at least 30fps (900p ftw) although, with V.A.T.S. it's framerate is bit less of an issue during combat.

Many responses in this thread is why i'm sure the core gaming market's decline is as much to do with the publishers and devs as it is to do with the gamers. Damn i'm having an headache with the amount of people freaking out over visuals in Fallout by Bethesda no less

And I am annoyed at people dismissing relatively reasonable criticisms so offhandedly. Especially since the look of the game is most of what we have to go on for now.

It is like those people that brush Obsidian's propensity to ship buggy code or the relentless streamlining of Bioware games over time.

Just because a developer has operated that way in the past does not somehow make criticism of the same behaviour in the present invalid.

Am I crazy or are vegetation and interior objects missing AO? Is this due to the possibility you can pick up everything?

b-but the world is so large and there's probably seamless loading! and you can move every spoon so that means they shouldn't cast any shading. and at least we know it looks like shit instead of having it downgraded from 11/10 to 10/10 graphics!

900p 30 fps with this graphic? O_O If they can't handle this game at 1080p better they change their job.
