LL is useless currently. Can't log on can barely open a page to read new post and heaven forbid you want to reply... crash city. After about 20 minutes I was able to post 2 replies...

The problem is Bethesda was beating something when they were making Fallout 76 and it wasn't a dead horse.

lol

A female Mckaley Kaulkin (from home alone monologue) does anyone else see this? The sound, pacing and such sounds like... lol.

I believe they are just moving some assets around and renaming parts of their company to better reflect their current jobs(task etc) for that branch of the company. Changing the name to Xbox Game Studios is more in line with what they will be doing and such. Many companies do that. 1 of 2 things can happen as I see it. They can be absorbed into the parent company or they can be allowed to continue. I suspect so long as they are productive and are doing great they will continue with little interference. MS will own whatever they create and can use the end product as they see fit (in advertisements etc) Second thing... they get absorbed with all the assets and such into the main body and future products will be watered down as the main talent will be missing from the production. (or watered down) Still better than what Bethesda and EA is currently doing to their game assets. I believe at least for the beginning they will keep with the first choice. There are projects in the oven and major changes on that level will be really damaging. Once those are done they will possibly restructure and move to the second possibility My biggest fear however, is that they (MS) will require the games to be prepared for Xbox even if they were originally PC oriented and did their best $$$ from PC. Possibly even restricting release to other platforms including Sony and such.

Sure... found nothing interesting.... finding out that you have some white ancestry... that isn't interesting at all. Sure... Finding out that one of your great, great, great, great, great, great grandmother was white. Also, the black man that married the white woman isn't African at all... of course he doesn't matter one bit. What the hell. Does she know how stupid she sounds?

and .... you don't have to pay for tickets to the show!

On my end, I have seen some things that lend credibility to that story as well.

Likely until they release their next related game. Kind of like they did in the past for Oblivion, Fallout 3, NV, Skyrim 1 and Skyrim 2 and skyrim 3 (VR) etc. they don't care.

I don't either... It is a Bethesda Game, with a ported engine. What do you expect? At first I was upset with what they released, what they have been doing with the various issues and such but now I am not. In reality, it is to be expected from their current direction and management. It is what Bethesda is today and we should just stop trying to re-live the Bethesda of old when they released great games like Oblivion, Fallout 3, NV and others. I spend my time now looking toward Obsidian, CD Project Red and other new and upcoming devs.

Why didn't they just use a mature on line game engine and just port over some of the graphics? I am baffled by this. Surely that would have been easier in the long run. Doesn't their parent company have some on line games that are solid?

Who'd blame him?

Yes, exactly... I am not talking about the random exploit that people discover.. the video shows some serious exploits that are insane!

WHO spends the time needed to find these exploits lol.

Don't know those answers as there wan't much details on that. Much like the rest of the game. I agree, I don't think the private servers will happen and if they do, there will likely be the restrictions on only using their services. (Creation club etc) As for actual cheating in game or doing other things against their wishes, they just need to do like other companies have done and get people to moderate the game. I don't have any problems with Destiny or Defiance or other games with "cheats" and mostly no problems with other players either. I believe a few high profile bans of individuals for cheating would curb much of the actual cheating. Also, surely they should be able to see the difference between a texture swap and a actual code change. Seriously?

What an asshole that reporter was

Yes, there is a way to not use mods with their future games... DON'T BUY THEM!... The reason I used mods over recent years was to expand the game playablity of the game. .. and mostly to fix crap that was broken. I usually only have 25~50 total mods. that is WITH SEXOUT and SEXLAB (with their respectful games) Fallout 4... requires many mods to get their settlement crap to work properly. Then their aiming and some other features. If I can't have those mods to fix the game... I am not fucking interested in them. Not one bit. So I don't need mods if I don't have the game. Problem solved. I refuse to pay for mods FROM THE COMPANY THAT CREATED THE GAME to fix the game they released. The saving grace that kept me playing and buying Bethesda games titles like Fallout and TES is the fact I can change files and do shit with the game (mod it) to extend the value of the product. I ACCEPT their fuckups and shit and use the mods to fix those issues. They want to ban people for fixing graphics, modding their game (without any proof that they were cheating) then that game is DEFIANTLY NOT FOR ME. I fully understand if someone is caught cheating considering it is a public MMO. Also on the subject... where is the private servers? I assume that would solve their "issues" and allow people to play the game the way they wanted.

I see that and think that might be an option or something they do, however, there might be tools in their kit that they can't publicly release... however, if you are a "partner" they might be able to get around that bit of legal issue. However, If they move to that point... I don't see them allow ANY MODS to be free or outside of their Creation Club or whatever they decide to call it at that time. If there is a stink on this, they might allow authors to upload their stuff to THEIR servers and mark them as "Free" (until a new game is released and they (Bethesda) decide to release the exact same thing as a Creation Club mod) but, the author wouldn't get any money... with the thought of money and having to jump through their hoops, it won't last long before all of their authors upload for money in that case. (The free thinking and free giving authors moving on to other stuff to take up their time) Then a massive depreciation of skill and quality will occur, as those that don't know move in for a cash grab and those that have the skills move out and don't share their skills.

Todd never stated they would have "free" mods, only that there would be mods. That wasn't a lie... Fallout 76 has the Creation Club where you get mods from. I am surprised that there wasn't also a released statement for those that want to improve their graphics along the lines of requesting the author to go through the "rigorous vetting process" and have it added to the Creation Club for use. Because, we all know those are much better... If there is a way for Bethesda to screw something up, they will. I thought I wasn't going to be surprised anymore, I was wrong. It is like the gift from the very weird aunt or uncle that keeps on giving... in all the wrong ways

It's ok if someone likes Fallout 76... Don't know why they would but it is ok... just don't try to lobotomize others to your way of thinking and I won't try to lobotomize you... lol The funny thing about that thread is neither of us started in on Fallout 76 (at first) we were there to watch the world burn.. well at least the thread. Then we were attacked (I assume) for not even making a comment about Fallout 76 being good or bad just that having a thread discussing it was bad. Soon, Id imagine a person would be attacked for starting any thread with "Fallout" in the name. For Christ Sakes!

Told to the reddits and other forums

Are we starting a POOL? If we are... I take this time tomorrow. With what some of the members over there on LL do, I can't think it would take very long. Not long at all. So sad. The members over there aren't as cool as our members here, just chilling away posting shit and having fun!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from NSFWmods.com. Hope you have a great holidays
