Bethesfa E3

[old.Tohtori]

So Bethies are going to have their first ever rpess conference at E3.

I'm hopeful it'll be Fallout 4, especially since the actor of three-dog had tweeted towards that a while back.

New elder scrolls would be good too. But gimme F4

 

[ECA]

I hope its not F4 because how bent out of shape the fans will get :d

 

[old.Tohtori]

@caLLous go f*ck yourself. Trolling threads, derailing sh*t.

 

[old.Tohtori]

And dead serious as ever

 

[old.Tohtori]

Yeah, be it anything it's going to be a sh*tstorm of yei and nay. If it is F4 though, not gonna read anything about it outside a release dte.

 

[leggy]

I missed something I think.

Loved Fallout 3... couldn't give a fuck about 'fans'. Most fans of anything are cunts with entitlement issues.

 

[leggy]

Anyway.... Fallout 4 would be welcomed in my open arms.

I'd love 'em to rework the movement and combat physics and the utterly woeful NME AI.

If they could stop it feeling like a clusterfuck of a console twattery shitebox then I'd love it tbh. Everything else is right about it. It would go from awful to great.

 

[Mabs]

f4 would be a new engine though, no ?

 

[Raven]

I would certainly hope so, even Skyrim is ancient.

 

[Mabs]

yea but iirc they always do 1 elder scrolls, 1 fallout, per engine
except New Vegas was a diff studio and doesnt count

 

[Raven]

I thought elder scrolls was on the fallout engine? Or at least a heavily modified version.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Different (kinda)engines for all. Oblivion and fallout 3 used havoc(both modified to fit needs), new vegas used havoc for physics stuff, but also obsidians gamebryo engine and skyrim used betheses own creation engine.

so assuming it is F4, it will be SkyrimEngineV2.0 then

 

[old.Tohtori]

I'd hazard a guess at skyrim 2.0 yeah. Zenimax basically owns all engines anyway(well, they "prefer" company to company resourcing). It's certainly not havoc(i hope, dated as poo).

They've had plenty of time(4 years soon) to fiddle with the creation engine, so if we get a fallout with a skyrim 2.0 engine it's going to be sweet

Only issue is that if they liked vegas a lot, as fans did, they might not give it to bethesda and obsidian is working on it.

 

[Scouse]

AI boost is what's needed most. Combat is like playing fucking Duck Hunt.

 

[Raven]

I never get close enough to the enemy for AI to be an issue!

Though it would be nice if NPCs reacted for more than a minute or so after I take their bestest buds head off with a rifle.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Considering hwo much improved AI gets with mods, even if they upgrade it a bit then the community should handle the rest

That's the sort of thing. Someone gets their head shot off, they don't get themselves into cover and start attacking in any sort of coordinated fashion. Skyrim was kinda dumb in the same way too.

All games suffer from awful AI to some extent - AI development stalled in the late 90's IMO. It's just I find Fallout to be sorta the worst. Lovely weapons, but what's the point of 'em?
