http://m.ign.com/articles/2015/11/10/fallout-4-players-on-pc-have-already-logged-45-million-hours

As of now people have logged 5,000,000 hours on steam playing fallout.

The max concurrent users are over 433,000 users. That has surpassed GTA 5 and is 3rd highest ever in Steam history.

We have a hit on our hands, it may even beat Skyrim.

Congrats BGS. Im at work now but Ill be back in Boston tonight!

It will definitely surpass Skyrim. If Beth's growth exponential of 50% increase with each release holds then at the end of 2017 FO4 will have sold 30 million copies.

Holy crap! The game was only released 17 hours ago. That's pretty amazing.

Even more so because as a single player RPG --which the EABorg executives declared was dead--it's likely going to beat BF3 (EABorg's flagship MMO) as well. Much the same way Skyrim crushed BF3 in sales and replay value to date. :lol:

I know I helped contribute. The game unlocked at 11pm local time for me last night, and I spent all night playing. The only reason I'm on the forums right now instead of playing is that I'm at work. :wink_smile:

I'm parked outside my wife's work Waiting to pick her up and do errands. *sigh*

Can't complain though. After all last week she did buy my Xbox and paid online for my Fallout game two days ago...

I'm so busy playing I no longer care to argue with the grumblies who post here.

It's a wonderful game.

I absolutely love it. And Bethesda did not disappoint on the classic stepping into the sunlit landscape trademark. I actually just walked around and admired the scenery.

I agree. I was initially very skeptical and have been an agitator for adding in certain things from New Vegas that didn't make it in, but Bethesda has amazed me again.

I was a little worried about all the "streamlining", but that is no longer a concern. I thought VATS was dead...wrong; its fully functional, and overall combat is far superior to previous entries. I thought Weapon mods were a gimmick, and I've already made a ton of them. I thought village building was a stupid idea, yet here I am rebuilding Sanctuary Hills...and having fun doing it.

Environments and assets = stellar! Loot = drooling. Story = cool. Dialogue = far beyond anything I expected. Killing a you-know-what with a you-know-what, while wearing you-know-what...all within an hour of game startup = f-in priceless!

Even though I miss some of the things I liked about past games, Bethesda, like they did with Skyrim, totally make up for it with something else that is a pleasant surprise and fun as all hell.

User scores and reviews...pffft. As if any of that matters, or is nearly as bad as the grognards wish...merely wishful thinking from Bethesda's adversaries. This game is going to sell a ton...and I don't think there's any doubt that CDPR, Bioware and Rockstar will be heading back to their respective drawing board wondering how Beth does it time and again...and you can bet their apostles will be grumbling all the while, pointing to any adversity they can scraqe up and will be ever argumentative and questioning as to how so many people love this game and "just shouldn't....because (insert) reason that doesn't apply to Bethesda games."

I'm a Bethesda critic and have to admit they killed it with FO4. This game is fun and I will be in it for hundreds, if not thousands, of hours.

I started playing around...oh god 6:30 this morning...it's 4:20pm now, about to go into work. Been playing all damn day with only an hour break to go to a sammich shop.

The game is good. Really good. I have zero complaints about what I'm experiencing.
