Those kinds of physics have already been modded into Skyrim (HDT support for SOS) so you'll probably see similar mods for FO4.

IF I DON'T GET DEV CONFIRMATION THAT MY PROTAG CAN DO THE HELICOPTER I WILL CANCEL MY PRE-ORDER.

Seriously though. Know what I want as part of the body thing? Chest hair. For real. This Ken doll thing has gone on for too damn long.

This sounds like a wonderfully satisfying sandwich.

Some bounce physics please. You know ... to be realistic.

I can't imagine the whole body thing being anything more than what we had in Skyrim though, which was something at least.

I find your statement very puzzling.

Why would a 'just-bones-and-skin' character be strong? Why would an obese character be fast or have high endurance? Stats were a thing in the time of table-top RPGs because there was no better way to represent your character's physique or abilities. Now that we have the technology to modify our character's appearence to make him look strong or agile or whatever, the logical thing to do would be to tie that physical appearence to the strengh, dexterity etc. he would be displaying in game.

Why would you not like that?

This wouldn't bother me either way. I like to play with a limited weight threshold, in skyrim I dropped it down to about 75 so I only had space for one set of heavy armour or the like. But I could if I wanted to reflect my characters carry weight with their strength number.

*looks at the people at beth who designs the clothes and armor in the game as they lay on the floor crying at the design terror this feature would bring*

yeah...I think we should settle for skyrims body slider.

I hope there is tattoos and some sort of injuries like limbing or missing fingers and such.

I doubt that every dweller sported 2 eyes and full set of fingers.

Cause some people like super-strong skinny people, or because "it's a game who cares ?" or they want to be acrofatic, etc. Also, have you seen how big and buff super mutants are ? No amount of realistic musculature should allow you to beat them in a slug fest, yet you totally can stomp all over them. Hell in FO3 I punched a *Behemoth* to death.

Its a requiremnet for any post Apocalyptic fan.

Have a lovely day!

Some how my auto spell said April Calyptic. That would be a sweet band name.

Yeah I too hope/wish that we are able to customize our whole body. That technology has been around for a long timenow.

Because it doesn't add anything to the experience for me, and I want to have the freedom to make whatever kind of character I want without having to worry about how their appearance affects my gameplay. I much prefer the freedom to make mold-breaker kinds of characters over the added sense of realism from having my appearance reflect my stats.

In a universe where I can paralyze a Deathclaw with a punch and recover from crippled limbs and gunshot wounds with Stimpaks, I'm really not too fussed about that level of realism.
