What will happen on Friday?

Post » Wed Dec 02, 2015 2:31 pm

Check out Bethesda's tweet, I think this is all we get, confirmation that the game is either about to go gold or already has.

Edit: someone was waaay ahead of me. I thought I had read everything until I hit refresh again.

we

well isnt nothing, they announce the game is finish finish finish, so they wont have any delay or anything. Plus all this secret stuff will make it SUPER cool to get the game, i have almost 0 spoiler, that is 100% time better that any other release that u know already the companions and some quest and loot.

On the other hand, this type of 'holding everything to the chest, not allowing reviewers to see anything about the media until release' would indicate that a film or TV show was going to be terrible and the publisher knew it in advance. Hopefully that's not what we've got here, but it's not a practice that has a lot of good history.

I'm not going to lie. I could admit defeat, something did technically happen. So I'll let you call it, or we can both drop 100 caps.

The game was pretty close to being done when they did the E3 presser. I doubt if they thought it was crap they'd have gone through all of that trouble, spending all of that time and money for their own E3 presentation. They would have just talked about their games on the floor, like normal.

Releasing carefully tailored videos prior to release doesn't in any way make it less likely that they're holding back from allowing journalists (or anyone else) to actually see the game because they don't think it's actually good.

The question everyone should be asking is 'What will happen on Tuesday?'...

Actually, that's the day that Wimpy pays me back for the hamburger I bought him last week.


Right. So, I am talking about all of the money they spent on a huge E3 kickoff event. They didn't need to do all of that. If you knew your flagship game for that event was crap, why would you even host it? Why would you make your first ever E3 event a metaphorical spotlight to shine down on a pile of crap? I don't think that anyone would. They would just do the normal E3 floor dog and pony show.
Or, since they set the short announce release timeframe, they could have simply announced F4 was being worked on, showed some stuff and said, "Look out for Oct 2016." IF they thought it was crap, why would they do such a short announce to launch, instead of trying to fix it?



Quite the opposite is happening here. They are confident with this game. They don't need to oversell it with constant bombardment as some games do in an attempt to grab first day sales before bad reviews come out.

By strange coincidence, if you replace all of the capitalised letters above and then rearrange them, you get:

Well they have been releasing some thing on Fallout 4 every Wednesday and we have two more Wednesday to go before release.

I'd think the Quakecon footage would be a prime contender.

I doubt this will happen, but I'd love to see the full clips on the perks.

Since the game has gone gold, there is no reason to lot release the full perk chart info.

I'm hoping for Quakecon footage on Wednesday, then radio silence until Nov 10.

yes, but everything they said was already announced, and I said all they were going to do was tweet about it or something which they did. I think the general consensus here is they didn't do anything.

That's because we are from the "Few-Chaaaa.....". We are 18 hours ahead of Pacific Time (West coast USA), 15 hours ahead of Central Time and 14 hours ahead of Eastern Time (East coast USA).

No idea, I just had the urge to say "Few-Chaaaa.....". I think -Lucifer- was expecting something to happen on Friday.
