I have to admit the gunplay in 4 is so much better then in 3.  Really feels like you are firing guns.

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

I know, right? I just love the visceral feeling of the shotgun, too.
Also, figured out the weapons mod problem, turns out, pipe bolt-action gun mods are counted separate from the more usual semi–auto ones.
In other news, I now have three unique weapons.

Okay, I'm willing to give Bethesda a chance on the gameplay (but I've already seen how they are butchering story), can someone point me in the direction of some videos showing some actual mechanics?  All the videos I've seen so far are just dudes running around shooting things CoD style, I'd like to see some hard info on crafting, base building, etc.

Edit: I specifically mean players actually using the systems in game, not Bethesda's self-promotion.

How the time passes, it looks like the game is getting more and more negative reviews. Most helpful reviews on steam are actually negative. Looks like majority think that people should wait with buying for all bug fixes and that a lot of the game is change or dumbed down in some segments.

Well, theres EnterElysium faffing about a bit with stuff, ah... Splattercat spending some time messing about too, but thats about all I got.

Splattercats vid starts a bit early, due to him rambling straight into messing with stuff.

so i like this whole postapocalyptic setting so much i keep playing it, but objecively, the controlls are so deeply fucked up, i should just uninstall this.
time on the save shows 11.5h, i spend at least 6 of these hours fighting the ui in an attempt to build a fence around my settlement.
inconsistent and illogical keybindings, a snap feature that makes it impossible to build stuff near other stuff exept in a straight line, a camera that makes it almost impossbile to tell where the thing you build will be placed - its almost as if this was made by some sadist with the singular intention to torture the player.
i proalby should ignore this whole feature, and just place the few required structures into the middle of the base under the claer sky. i realy doubt the game checks if there are roofs above the beds or that ill ever see a real assault on the settlements.

gnaaaa. i realy want to like this game, and aside of settlement management it proably even  is quite good.. but this building shit is making it damn hard for me.

The year is 20xx, fox is the only smash char and every game is minecraft.

Apperently you can put a bucket on a shopkeepers head to steal there stuff. Back in fallout3/nv I had to carry the weapons out of his line of sight in a bucket.

i don't have the game but you should be able to rebind keys if you hate the key bindings so much.

Okay, I have to admit that the crafting looks extremely compelling, and the FPS/gunplay has been tremendously improved from 3/NV (not that I give a damn about gunplay.)
That said, the negative views on dialog/interaction are really big red flags, can someone who is actually playing give me a solid breakdown on just what level of limitations are here?  Is this Mass Effect level restrictive?  Worse?  Better?
Is the plot as bad as the sidequest writing? (I've already seen that they reused the 'robot who acts like a revolutionary' bit.)

[nenjin]

I'm in that in between place where my interest has been piqued, kinda like it was with Skyrim. I wasn't going to buy it on release but then read reviews and was compelled to run out and get it. And while I enjoyed it, it wasn't the revolutionary Bethesda game I was hoping it was.

So I'm kinda looking at this game as FO3 plus a ton of stuff. And trying to decide if that's worth getting it now and putting up with the bugs.

[KingofstarrySkies]

Is there any way to hammer the game into shape so it'll work with 6GB ram, Intel(R) HD Graphics, and a Intel Pentium CPU 2020M @ 2.40GHZ processor?

I really want to play it. So badly. But I don't have the cash to buy a new PC.

[motorbitch]

6gb ram work fine here. integrated graphics proably wont cut it. best try a "demo" first.

[miauw62]

Yeah, you'll probably want at least an actual graphics card.

[KingofstarrySkies]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

[BigD145]

Integrated graphics almost never "cuts it" unless it's 10+ years old.
