Fallout 4 Mods will be available on Xbox One

Would be pretty funny, if these mods turn out not to be free.

 

*shrugs* that's why god made interns for.

PC Superiority achieved.

Here's an archived version for individuals with certain sensibilities.

 

As I said, this is gonna be a magnificent trainwreck.

 

I got the popcorn ready!

 

Most of these mods are going to be trivial things like simple re-textures or NEW GUNZZ and armor. Larger mods require FOSE/NVSE anyway.

 

I honestly believe that Bethesda thinks that mods are just, armor, guns and cosmetics. I have a bad feeling that the mods for Fallout 4 are going to be pretty shallow. I would like to be proven wrong but so for it doesn't look good.

 

I don't think texture mods will run that well on consoles. At least not the better ones.

 

Not on a toaster like the Xbox One. God no, the FPS drops on that will be massive.

 

I'm not too savvy on the Xbox One architecture but aren't they going to be running Windows 10 on it at some point? A lot of mods should transfer over fairly easy I would think. Not the larger ones as others have mentioned, but I don't see why a script extender wouldn't be feasible. Granted I'm not a programmer so...

 

It will be interesting to see if someone will be able to program a script extender for the XBox One. Hats off to however is able to do it.

 

Unless they go with paid mods...

 

I am curious ... are we already at the point where the consoles actually become like non customizable computers?

 

Well if you install Windows 10 on the thing and then play modded Fallout 4 installed off of that, it's not really "console mods" anymore, is it? I mean if you install Windows on it, the Xbox just becomes a(n overpriced) PC with a fancy case.

 

I really dont see how this could be considered a BAD thing. Unless you are a PC elitist (note I said elitist, not PC gamer) who doesnt want consoles getting the ability to have mods.

 

Nobody is saying a bad thing, we ar ejust saying it's gonna be a complete disaster because Bethesda is not regulating anything and the tools and software that are essential to running a stable modded game are not that easy to get or inject into a PC. I mean they even included a failsafe to have an "unmoded state" save file separate from the regular ones.

 

I thought we reached that point some time ago.

 

If nietzsche was a gamer-nerd he most probably would say that both, console peasants and PC elitists are just the interstage to the true uber-gamer that will be superior to both console and pc gamers and that instead of fighting each other they should actually work together to create this master race.

 

damn is this true? im guessing you will have to order from Bethesda them selves for that right?
