Todd confirmed that modding in fallout 4 can be transferred and played for free onto Xbox One.

Just out of curiosity which interview was this?

Edit: in the MS conference

How will this work for heavy duty texture/gfx mods?

I feel they will filter what can be placed into XBL

Source of this information?

Todd just announced it in the MS E3 conference.

Todd was on stage @ the Xbox presser.

A tad suprised tbh...

And now I am officially debating buying an Xbox instead of a PS4.

It was on the live E3 stream, during the Xbox media show.

Okay thanks!

Uh, I smell paid mods.

So they're going to allow PC mods on consoles, but only on XBox One? PS4 players are SOL?

Yeah, that's gonna end well.

Sony need to pull their finger out then.

Not surprised - the Xbox 1 is closer to a PC than the Xbox 360, after all.

Deep frying the Xbox One

Edit I swear I wrote X.B.O.N.E Edit. 2 Why!!!??? is it cencoring it?

I only upload my mods to the Nexus, which obviously won't be available to console users. I can already see an extremely small library of mods for Xbox users.

Todd did say it was going to be for free.

About the same as a PC with similar graphics capabilities, I imagine.

They will be free.

what does that smell like?

Did Todd Howard specifically say they were exclusive to Xbox? I mean, he presented it at Microsoft's conference, but maybe he'll do the same for Sony?

That would svck if it were exclusive to Xbox. Curious has to how it will work as well in regards to where the mods will be coming from?

After what happen with Skyrim I doubt Bethseda really care about PS gamers.

Yeah...

It's impressive, but I wonder how they are going to be able to port mods to the Xbox One while guaranteeing safe gameplay? Console software isn't as readily manipulated as a Desktop should be.

I'm still getting it for ps4 for my vanilla experience but it's really looking like this be the last Bethesda game for me.
Mods for xbox1, congrats xbox1 users, but now Microsoft or Bethesda has to spend money on an organizer for the mods. Without an organizer, I would bet money we will hear a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth because someone downloaded something before they were supposed to download something else and now the Xbox just resets when they play the game.

I hope they have thought all this though.

If F4 doesn't have script extender functionality built in, then Xbox's library was already bound to be much smaller.

It's better than nothing and a step in the right direction for Microsoft.

I wonder how this will work out. Can't really be bothered to alter work for consoles or go through hoops to make it work on a lesser system. Did they say anything on the hardware side?

Can already see a mountain of potential problems. On X1 how is mod management going to be handled? What about load order which is quite crucial? Mod compatibility with each other? Merging leveled lists?
