Will try the game, even tho post-apocalyptic settings tend to bore me.
Going a bit OT, there's one thing I don't get: why does Bethesda always get a free pass when it comes to technical shortcomings? I've seen glitches and shitty texture work on streams and video reviews that would have generated dozens of pages of flames if this was a game by Ubi o CDproject, or someone else (just random names that spring to mind, I'm speaking in generic terms).
Just find that curious, that's all. Is it because we EXPECT a Beth game to be technically sub-par and riddled with bugs? And so there isn't that feeling of "betrayal"?
why all the hype ? the game sucks like all the rest of the games that came out of 2015 tell me a good game ?
goty will be hard to choose because there a no games to choose from
30fps lock by default? read on steam forums that you need to edit ini to remove it
Inter and Neon are playing just fine, not 30fps lock mentioned

Wow. You were just a super SUPER genius, weren't you? How about "CRACK-ONLY" uploads on every torrent site and file sharing place known to man? RIN posts "CRACK-ONLY" every time.

Because everybody knows that Bethesda=Bugs=Shitty Textures -> Wait for unofficial patches and mods.

They don't? It's one thing everyone on here is pretty much unanimous about; Bethesda make some of the buggiest and more annoyingly technical lacklustre titles out there.. and they get enormous mounds of shit about it from all of us Hell, the last few dozen pages have been about nothing but the ridiculous visuals, the streamlining *and* the target audience
We still play Beth games though, because they're massive and they offer huge worlds and enormous timesinks.

Nope. This version (the key I activated on steam) is locked to run in a specific country. It doesn't matter if you use VPN to unlock it earlier
Yup I know that. The Steam message looks different to me though. You activated your region product with some other region IP and it seems locked permanently now unless you play it with a NZ IP. I'm not very good in these things though. Most probably I'm wrong.
80-100 FPS maxed out, 1440p. Still seems a bit "stuttery". Looks nicer than I thought. But already encountered my first serious bug, while trying to acces terminals. First one worked but now whenever I close connection to one I am stuck and can only look around, not move anymore... Beth quality, as usual.

Try to play with the godrays / shadows settings. Those usually make the game "stutter" even at high fps.

Nah, it's not that coz it won't run using NZ vpn So I'll just have to find a crack only and play a cracked version and tomorrow it unlocks properly for my region.
It’s the end of the world
I guess we should talk about bugs. It wouldn’t be a Bethesda game without bugs.
Let’s see. 1) Accessing Power Armor from the front sometimes results in your character trying to walk through the suit, locking all the controls and forcing a reload. Accessing Terminals that have chairs in front of them can sometimes have the same result.
2) Late in the game, trying to fast travel to a certain location (named “Ticonderoga”) would cause the game to crash-to-desktop. Every single time.
Fallout 4
Oh, so uh...stuck in the floor again, eh Nick?
3) Companions are dumb as rocks. I actually loved the one I was traveling with—a gentleman by the name of Nick Valentine—except he is apparently programmed to go sit down whenever the player is busy. It would be a nice touch except that he’ll often sit down and then never stand up to come find you again. Companions will also try to walk through walls, take off running in the opposite direction when you get in an elevator, fall through the floor because they can’t jump, et cetera.
4) You can walk away from any conversation. You’re no longer frozen in place. Unfortunately, neither are NPCs. Sometimes you’ll be having a serious conversation and characters will just turn around and walk away from you, forcing you to start the whole conversation over.
5) I had three different quests where the scripting broke. Two of them I was able to fix by fast-traveling away and then back, forcing the game to reload the quest triggers.
6) The game wouldn’t even launch to the menu on my laptop (with a 970M) in fullscreen mode, Low settings, but ran fine on a mix of Medium/High in borderless windowed.
7) Not really a bug, but the menus in this game are a mess. Sometimes Escape is used to exit menus (like the workshop), other times it’s used to pause the game—at which point Tab is typically your means of exiting. Actually, keyboard and mouse controls are across-the-board wonky.
Fallout 4
These are only the major ones. There are innumerable graphical and audio glitches that also plague the game, plus fairly major optimization issues in downtown Boston—issues that seem to get worse the higher you climb a building. And the load times are predictably lengthy and obtrusive.
If Bethesda releases a patch that eradicates some of the more egregious bugs, add another half-star to Fallout 4's review score. It's that buggy.
Bottom line
For a long time, nobody made games like Bethesda. There is a leniency afforded to you, I think, when you’re the only one doing A Thing and it’s A Thing people like. You overlook the bugs. You overlook the bad AI. You overlook the poor main story.
But now...It’s not that Fallout 4 is a bad game, or even a bad Bethesda game. It’s that other studios started doing Bethesda’s whole open-world thing. Sometimes doing it better.
I enjoyed the hell out of my time with Fallout 4, despite my complaints. I expect a lot of people will. The setting is Fallout’s strongest asset, and if Boston is less iconic than Washington D.C. or Las Vegas it at least makes up for that fact by being an extremely important locale in Fallout lore.
This isn’t the step forward I expected, though. Here we are, the first Bethesda game on a new hardware generation, and I can’t help feeling like we’ve regressed—like Fallout 4 really is Oblivion-with-guns. A decade later, it certainly makes many of the same mistakes.
FOV is locked at 80. If you change it in the ingame console it immediately switches back to 80 when you exit the console.
If you edit the ini's it completely disregard them.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
