The best news to come from that is about the companions and the dynamic enemy attacks that seem to happen at different locations

Enemies literally hide in the woodwork...

Feral ghouls focus more on ambush tactics as well.

We don't get one SPECIAL point each level. They meant the perks are categorized under just SPECIAL now.

Well, I think the companion thing was the most interesting. Either Bethesda cares even less about companions and chose to focus on other things, or we'll get in depth companions. I hope for the latter.

It better not be One Special per level, that would be ridiculously OP, Moats would be unavoidable. :D

Can't wait for the bootleg footage or the real footage. :banana: :banana: :banana: :fallout:

This they showed some obvious features.

BOS is an verified delectable faction is nice, they are an light grey faction like NCR in NV, not shining armor and white cowboy hat or some poor kid needing protection but not asshats either.

My guess is that the institute is more dark grey, hopefully not too dark.

Outside of this nothing new.

Definitely want some Grey with Factions in Fallout 4, too much Black and White in Fallout 3/Skyrim. :brokencomputer:

The Science perk set are required to mod laser weapons, and the perks are tied to the Intelligence stat.

This means not only will your current level limit your perk choices but so will your chosen SPECIAL stats as well.

Example:

Science Rank 3 requires to unlock: SPECIAL Intelligence stat of 6, level 20 and all previous perks.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Fallout/comments/3eh85j/holy_shitama/; Corvega was just a manufacturing plant not a power plant.

Intelligence not useless, that's a good sign. So pretty much like the previous games but more combined, Nov 10th needs to get here now. :bowdown:

Also which was black and white in NV? Legion were pretty damn evil, and NCR Rangers were running around saving whoever they could like good ole good guys.

If that's what you took from the NCR, you should playthrough it again.

Most likely as a incentive to visit the con, I bet lots of those who attend wouldn't if they knew they could watch a vid at home.

Looks like companion romance is confirmed as well.

Someone tweeted about relationships with human companions. Is this true?

YES!, confirmed relationships, no matter the gender!

They seem to be getting a lot of inspiration from bioware.

Done.

Most (and only) evil act is having someone beat up a guy for interrogation.

Makes sense, as no skills was reported i assume they are merged into perks as assumed.

However increasing specials would also be important, note that if you want to build an settlement at endgame charisma and related perks is not an dump stat :)

Yes you can always do radiant quest for xp and use intense training, hopefully this also build reputation.

I'm not going to get into a debate about it right now, but you're looking at just a surface layer of them. It's much deeper than that, for all the factions of NV.

What about Col. Moore ordering you to kill all the Great Khans? Or the Brotherhood?

(I know neither of those factions are "good" themselves, but she's still ordering you to destroy them.)

Perhaps obsidian just stinks at writing interesting factions.

Legion is wholeheartedly "evil" and their opponents want to protect NV from them.

Sounds black and white to me. At least Skyrim could be argued about who's better. You have to be a vile person to side with legion.

Sending troops into battle without body armor?That's callous, and indicative of a faction that has complete apathy to anyone not apart of their elite.As are their exorbitant taxes in goodsprings...
