Fallout 4 Teaser Site Updated

Teaser site update cements idea that Fallout 4 is due to be revealed by Bethesda.

After news that Bethesda were hiring for a next-gen RPG, trademarks being filed for Fallout 4 and what is alleged to be a teaser site for Fallout 4 appearing, the prospect of an upcoming Fallout 4 reveal is looking ever more likely.

That aformentioned teaser site has now been updated to read, "Nuclear Winter is coming in...," followed by a countdown.

I'm like a fly to a light when it comes to Fallout 3

dragon823807d ago

Give me a PS4/XB1 Fallout and I will be set for months.

Evilsnuggle3808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

Yes it will be on PS4 and xboned put it will not be next gen it will be on ps3 and 360 also . It will be on the skyrim engine.

Golden_Mud3808d ago

We don't know what engine it's on......

Indo3808d ago

Highly doubt it, they are going to use a newer up to date engine for nextgen then port it to PS3/360. Most likely

SilentNegotiator3807d ago (Edited 3807d ago )

It really bugs me that people really think that the engine determines if it's next-gen or not.

Wanna know a secret? Most engines are based off of constantly updated old ones. Even most of the new ones are HEAVILY based on old ones.

If it's based on the Skyrim engine, I guarantee you that it will be an updated Skyrim engine.

captainbigballs3808d ago

I guess you can also say that i'm a fly drawn to light as well with Bethesda. I'm just really curious as to the validity of this website. I took the time to do a simple right-click and inspect the website's code. Found a few cool things, but what I found the most interesting was that the developer of the website left his name in the code. I was sure that Krzysztof Furtak (@KrzysiekFurtak) is the designer of the website. Someone already asked him about this mysterious treasure and he has no clue about it.

I was gonna ramble on about how this website is fake until I noticed something. He only coded the plugin used for the countdown for this website. The search for the truth continues. If this is fake, I tip my hat for pulling my leg on this one. By the way, man, doesn't Winter Fallout seem fucking awesome?!

Bonerboy3807d ago (Edited 3807d ago )

I couldn't have said it better myself grumpc. Fallout 3 was and is still one of my favorite games. Here's hoping they can reinvent the same stellar experience.

Please be PS4, please be PS4...

raWfodog3808d ago

I'm pretty sure that there will be a PS4 and Xbox One version. Or do you mean that you wish it to be next-gen and PC exclusive?

Ezz20133808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

they would be fools not to bring it on the most wanted next gen console (Ps4)

Skate-AK3808d ago

It will be. After the nightmare Skyrim was on PS3.

Sodeadly1233808d ago

Maybe its gonna be in a colder region. I think it'd be awsome if it was in chicago during winter. Isn't Chicago the brotherhood of steel's last big stronghold in america.

GarrusVakarian3808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

"Nuclear Winter" refers to the ash that falls after an atomic explosion that makes the landscape look like its coated in snow, but yeah i do agree with you, snowy areas would be awesome.

dumahim3808d ago

No, it isn't just about looking like winter. Nuclear winter is the expected temp drop due to smoke and ash blocking the sun. Depending on how bad it is, even during the summer in warmer climates it could be below freezing.

RDF3808d ago

I think its the Enclaves last stronghold. Miraposa Base is the Headquarters for them.

Logak3808d ago

No, It's not going to be set in Chicago. Gonna be in Boston i,e; The CommenWealth. It's like a massive robot city place thing, where they're lots of scientists.
The Morse code playing in the website translate to;

"MY DEAR SISTER. I’M HEADING TO THE INSTITUTE. GOD KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS PLACE NOW. THIS OLD BASTARD WILL HELP US. HE MUST HELP US. –0321–"

^ The Institute is a scientific society thing located in the Commonwealth, and it's headed by Zimmer, the guy from Fallout 3 who came down looking for an android he made that ran off.

Before there was a different Morse code playing, and it was;

“Call Any Station, Calling Any Station, Calling Any Station, This is From OZ (Oscar Zulu), Please Wait.”

^ "Oscar Zulu" was a mystery radio station which was going on about how a man and his family were very sick and they needed help, and when you finally found them,they disappeared. I suspect that it would be related to this family, and their sickness... In which they travel to the Commonwealth in search for a cure, though that's just speculation.

howittsdone3808d ago

I wonder if the 0321 at the end could be the release date. Its a Friday in March (so it very well could be, Skyrim was released on a Friday). That would be amazing! I can't wait!!!!!!!!!

problemchild843808d ago (Edited 3808d ago )

I always assumed they had died, there were several skeletons in the place that they were holed up in (meaning that the message was quite old and was playing on a loop for many years) if I remember correctly. Anyway I can't wait for some more Fallout!

How To Solve Fallout 4 Next-Gen Update Performance Issue On OLED Steam Deck

Despite being verified for the Steam Deck, Fallout 4 has issues running on the OLED version of Valve's handheld device. Here's how it works.

Isn't this a better and easier work around?...

There is a partial workaround that adds the Fallout 4 launcher back  ;to the Steam Deck version of the game. Players need to add “SteamDeck=0 %command%” to Fallout 4’s launch options in the game’s settings on Steam Deck. But it’s wild and not great that players have to do this just to change visual settings while playing on Valve’s portable PC.

Fallout 4 next-gen upgrade woes continue for some PS Plus users

yup, worked for me a few hours ago

MrDead2d ago

This update on PC kills mods, they still didn't improve or fix the draw calls and if you have an RTX card the game still crashes unless you turn off debris.
So if you mod the game it now looks worse, plays worse, all of your saves are broken and the game breaking bugs are still present.

purple1012d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Good work detective

Bethesda strikes again, always thought their games were a tad boring anyway, this was even before Microsoft brought them. Used to quake 3 team arena to death, on an old pc, at the time it was new, fresh, fast paced and innovative, their games these days, are none-of-the-above

Michiel19891d 17h ago

Ever heard of a game called Doom or Wolfenstein, detective?
Also quake 3 arena was made by ID, which at the time wasn't part of Bethesda.

Profchaos1d 20h ago

Yeah I've had friends rebuy the game because the ps plus didn't work and they used to own the last gen version sold off the physical after the PS plus pack included fallout when they got the ps5.

So overall I know ms has likely warned quote a bit from this error.

Barlos1d 13h ago

This game hasn't aged well. I was really looking forward to the update, but I'm just not enjoying it. I never did get on with the settlement building and raiders, and I still don't. I won't be going back to this now.

mkis0071d 10h ago (Edited 1d 10h ago )

Settlement stuff was way undercooked. Too many settlements and QOL updates are needed, and can only be added by mods...which disable achievements. The game does 2 things better than past games: Gunplay and scavenging.

Profchaos1d 8h ago (Edited 1d 8h ago )

Have to agree settlement stuff was boring and dull but I loved the game outside of that still do. But next to other games is it's era like witcher 3 it always felt a little stuck in the mid 2000s

anast1d 7h ago (Edited 1d 7h ago )

They aren't really missing much. I've been playing it for awhile and it's just a polished turd. Low effort, hyped up like a full release.

Fallout 4 Next-Gen Update Has A Bugged Out Quality Mode On Xbox Series X|S

anast2d ago

Ha! They messed up the Xbox upgrade.

GamerRN2d ago

It's not messed up. This mode runs 60fps 1440p with ultra settings. If you want to see the other modes, disable 1440p somehow.

anast1d 7h ago

The S doesn't have ultra settings.

Ironmike2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

They have and they haven't just download 60fps and ultra setting mod and gane looks great

GamerRN2d ago

And Ultra Settings ... @1440p. It's working as expected. There is a star that states in the patch notes that if 1440p is available, quality mode will stay in 60fps 1440p with ultra settings.

Barlos2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Surely not! Bugs with something from Bethesda? Get outta here!

Father__Merrin1d 13h ago

I noticed that performance mode on or off both 60fps which is best mode to use then?

BeRich2331d 13h ago

"On" does seem to perform better too me.
