I'm curious where I (and people in general) can go to suggest mods to mod makers. The one mod that I want more than any is the Alternate Death from Skyrim. The biggest problem I have with open world games is that there is absolutely zero repercussions for dying. None, whatsoever. Just reload and try again. I love the whole, "dead is dead" playstyle that a lot of us hardcoe gamers do but I often find it a wee bit excessive, although I've played that way many, many times.

The best of both worlds is for an alternate to death. For those who don't know here's generally how it works and it would be absolutely perfect for Fallout, probably even more so than the Elder Scrolls.

When you "die" you never really die. But rather you're knocked out and essentially any number of possibilities can happen to you. The screen goes black and you are...

Left for dead, all of the possessions (including gold/caps) are gone. You might get lucky and they may have left something on you.

Or you're now a prisoner in a bandit camp.

If you're lucky a friendly traveler saw you and took you in to help you.

The possibilities are truly endless. And anyone looking for a hardcoe playstyle, this is a must-have. It makes dying meaningful. You carefully consider your options and have to choose your battles. It's how I love to play and I really hope that this mod finds its way into the game. Again, especially for Fallout, I'm sure this would have fantastic possibilities.

That actually sounds really fun! I'm with you on the dead is dead is meh view. The alternative being no reprecussion is also meh to me as well. Having consequence to my death always makes things more intense. When I'd lose a junkload of money in borderlands I'd be pissed. Hell I walk around with 150k in caps in NV lol I would make more calculations in my actions if they had the potential to really bite me, which I like the idea of

The Skyrim mod was good but has a lot of room for improvement. I can promise you though, if you're like me, there were moments when my heart was racing and I was literally running out of a cave (in Skyrim) from some kind of enemy as I was about to die. It was INCREDIBLY intense and I've never really experienced anything like it in a game before. All of this was because dying svcked. It wasn't just run in, guns blazing, if I die, oh, well, reload.

Also, it should allow you to tweak what happens (and what percentage chance that all your stuff is gone) when you die. That's what the Skyrim mod did. But it also allowed you to get your crap back. In Skyrim I was "killed" by a Bandit Maurauder who stole all my stuff, including my favorite sword. I was able to track him down and I had to fight him with lesser weapons and armor. It was an epic battle and it was the best feeling when I defeated him and got my junk back. Standing over his dead body and getting my sword back was so satisfying.

If I was able to make mods, this would be the one that I would work on. I have so many ideas with this that would add so much to the game.

Once the game is out, thereabouts, a new sub forum for modding will appear, along with the rest of the sub forums. Usually people will post mod ideas, requests, or post their own mods for people to browse.

Alright, thanks. I'll keep a lookout. This is one that I'm really hoping someone can make.

Well, that's mods for ya. See a need, fill a need. Usually, though, the mods are made for a mod makers own personal use and design. Some make it a real hobby with proper shine and polish. That's one of the things I like about Bethesda games, you get see some really clever and creative work come out of the Community. From real winners like the New Vegas Bounties series, to ambitious but ultimately pipe dream projects like Morrowlivion or Skywind, which make see a full release by the time The Elder Scrolls 10 is out.

Honest question here: Is is kosher and/or acceptable to offer a mod maker money to make a certain mod? I'd pay to have an Alternate Death mod for Fallout 4.

Nope. Can't do that. It's also quite difficult to get a mod made unless you do it yourself. Some Modders already have ideas in the works that may or may not be similar to your own. So there's that.

That is the exact mod I came in this thread to request. I hate seeing my characters die so I'd like to request a mod that when you die, you get knocked out and wake up in a hospital bed somewhere. It could even be like the Megaton clinic. There is bound to be at least one clinic in FO4.

It's a virtual certainty given the popularity of the idea that either the actual mod author of the Skyrim alternate death mod will do it him/her self or one of the innumerable other modders out there will come up with their own version of it if for some reason he/she doesn't choose to make a Fallout 4 version of that mod. This game is going to be hugely popular, SOMEONE out there in modding land will take up the mantle to fill this request I've no doubt, along with most other popular mods and ideas from previous Fallouts and some ideas from the Elder Scrolls games as well..

One of the only mods that is a must is MCM which I thought I heard rumor that he wasn't making one for 4...Hope that's not true....

Sometimes I like to just cheat and have silly fun so I'd like to see a bunch of god mode stuff like unlimited carry, caps, ap, etc. There was a mod for New Vegas that, right outside the clinic was a weapons cache that had every weapon in the game inside haha that was cool
