Just give us the mod tools so we can at least salvage the cool mutants and put them in something slightly less shit pete you fucking nigger.
Why do I keep seeing screencaps in the same format from this literal who site?
It was obvious they were going to use this as a marketing strategy.
That's a pretty genuine statement actually. Hopefully they do learn from their mistakes.
The amount of incompetence and greed that was put into the game was why people hated it. Not because you "tried something different", Pete Hiney.
That isn't what he's saying at all, are you illiterate?
They didnt admit shit, the only thing they understand is it was slightly too buggy.
They are trying to figure out what is the MINIMUM amount of effort they can put it and still have customers buy their trash.
>Something different
>Fallout 4 with a poorly cobbled together online mod
Biggest cope in vidya history.
>"J-just because it went badly doesn't mean it was wrong to try to make a game"
He might as well have said something as retarded as this. The fact that the game was shit has nothing to do with the fact that they tried something different, No one is saying this as far as I've seen.

>decent map and concept
>wasted on the less important dev team cause they were lazy
they could try using a different engine, lazy fucks
Mod tools and real private / modded servers that do not need Bethesda as a middle man.
>just because I was wrong doesn't mean I was wrong
journos with the big think
That's exactly what he's saying. Learn to read, dipshit.
And your poor comprehension of his statements shows why > should only be used for actual direct quotes and not paraphrasing.
Potential of the game was fucking wasted because of the retarded no npc rule
Was fun with some friends tho
See you in skyrim 2
They:
>Picked the wrong location
>Picked the wrong time period
>Picked the wrong game mode (PvP)
>Added RMT
>Reused dragons from Skyrim
>Released a game that failed even as a tech demo for multiplayer Gamebryo
And that was just the initial reaction to the release
They also
>Took a franchise whose entire fanbase wants nothing but singleplayer offline RPGs and tried to make it an MMO
>Doesn't Mean It Was Wrong to Try Something Different
It wasn't bad because they tried something differend, it was shit because it was just a soulless platform to sell microtransactions.
They have not learned shit. Just watch: they gonna try something similar with next tes and starfield
Boy i sure fucking wish "TrYiNg SoMeThInG dIfFeReNt" meant other people paid me 60+ bucks a head to do so
I've never firebombed a game studio, that'd be "something different" i could try and not be criticized for it as i was just expanding my horizons
Nobody wants to use the bethesda launcher
Lets meet up for drinks outside Bethesda studios

>Just because fallout 76 didn't go well doesn't mean it was wrong to try something different
Objectively correct statement. HOWEVER, Fallout 76 was just a worse Fallout 4, but modless and attempting to price gouge the player with the least amount of effort possible. And Fallout 4 is just a worse 3.
Go a different direction or to a spinoff if you'd like, but make it good. Let it be in development for more than fucking 6 months before shitting something out
>They finally admitted
They "admitted" it last E3.
It wasn't wrong to try something different. It was wrong to try and fleece the playerbase.
>sold over 4 million copies on launch
Financially it was a success
That’s a lie because it’s only known to have sold 1.5m copies
why do you lie
I liked west virginia, I thought of all the problems this game had location and environments werent one of them
the audacity of these niggers.
with EA and co you expect it but with batehsda...
they used to be decent at least.
>>Added RMT
I thought the only P2W they added were the repair kits, they added more?
Why doesn’t Fallout set a new game in the midwest around the Chicago area and have filthy decaying rust belt areas like Gary?
The statement is correct; trying new things in fact isn't bad to do.
But what they tried indicated how COMPLETELY out of touch with their customers the company's upper management is. They're fucking CLUELESS.
They took a studio and franchise known for making roleplaying games, and tried to make an FPS shooter
[x] Strike One
Said studio is well known for massive incompetence at every level and hasn't made a good game for the better part of a decade
[x] Strike Two
They tried to fill the buggy piece of shit game with microtransactions and penny pinching bullshit
[x] Strike Three
What the fuck did they think would happen? These companies are all run by morons.
Too hard. Require think. Can't recycle ideas made at Bethesda
It's wrong to try something different when literally everyone was saying that it would run like absolute shit on Gamebryo and that Fallout is better as an RPG.
something different they say.
what is this "something different" he's talking about? I wonder if he can define what he means?
Hiw about they finally clean up the code in their shitty engine? Maybe things will run better.
every game they've made was a bug-filled pile of shit that was salvaged by fan's mods. then they had the audacity of twice trying to take advantage of that for themselves.
fallout 1st
get this, you get to pay $100 (yearly) to play solo.
Do you think a single human being likes Pete Hines?
Do his children like him? I kind of doubt it.
Of course it wasn't wrong to try something different. Hopefully they take it to heart and try using a different engine for once.
He's probably talking about an online bethesda game
But ESO already has that, and 76 is essentially just Fallout 4 so they didn't really try anything outside of their comfort zone
What he means is that investors are losing faith in his competence and he needed to buy some damage control stories in the media to get them off his back
nothing you read in a newspaper is news, it's all damage control and propaganda
even after they implant the changes they promise its still a worse Fo4 without modding
just put a bullet in this projekt and focus on games you can still save
That's not RMT, RMT is something like exchanging thousands and thousands of caps or a super-good legendary for a few bucks or vice versa.
Maybe they are just absolute shit developers and the moment they try anything slightly different and go outside their comfort zone instead of the same game they've been making for decades, they show how incapable they really are.
One trick ponies.
They reused dragons in Fallout 4, at least the AI. They used it for the Vertibirds, which is why they fly like utter retards.
FO76 is a dumpster fire but there's definitely a demand for it, ESO is reasonably successful and Skyrim's multiplayer mod had a lot of interest. I think they would have been better off starting with a smaller size spinoff with small party co-op instead of trying to go whole hog with an MMO though.
Lets be fair here people did want at least coop in a fallout game which is why there have been multiple mod attempts
Give the OpenMW guys a couple of years and you can play every fucking bethesda game in multiplayer.
It wasn't wrong to try something different, it was wrong to make a game so awful, buggy and have such a lackluster release it was a disservice to those who would have maybe enjoyed the game otherwise. Then you started to siphon money out of those who DID play the game .
the very things that will never happen and you can thank the fucking retards who keep giving Bethesda money. make no mistake, even if it's one person still buying shit, they will milk him until their profit margin reads $0.00, then they'll probably just shut it down forever
and no one ever even talks about how shit the story and sidequests were. I tried to get into the game because i love fallout but I dropped it when I got to that mansion the fired lady from fallout 4 made a real life superhero refuge for wayward girls in that operated after the bombs fell. Fucking retarded.
Once a week I find a post on Yas Forums I agree with 100%, this is that rare moment.
Every single time I hear something from Pete Hines I'm convinced he's a fucking idiot. I can tell from those two sentences alone that they haven't learned anything from 76 and that they'll probably double down on their stupidity for their next game.
