Fallout 4 MP needs to be UN-Ditched

Post » Sat Mar 19, 2016 1:41 pm

Hello, My name is: Austin Acree


I have opinions on the MP of fallout 4;


1. Fallout 4 has no involvement in single player at all, anything done in this mode does not harm anything in single player like killing a character.


2. It should just be there to explore and survive. This mode should just be for those who want to explore the wastes and build their own base with a friend and in general just survive. It should only have 1-8 players, like gta v online there is a solo session mode and unlike gta v online it would be better to have less people as it would be harder to find people and when you did find someone it would be either an unpleasant or pleasant surprise. 8 PLAYERS MAX, NO EXCEPTIONS


3. This mode should have pvp and if you go about killing people you would have a bounty or something like that on you (still not sure about that idea, I think maybe towns should be non-pvp to avoid killing traders ect as you get supplies from the towns)


4. It should be a survival mode. Basically it would need to be strict survival to make up for the lack of quests, as there would be none. So you would need to scavenge food and various other things you need for survival.


5. GTA. What I mean by this is that gta online doesn't really matter, your actions don't really matter and that's what fallout 4 online should have been built on. If you want a break from the great single player and just want to kick about the wastes with a mate then that's what mode you would play. Indeed not a lot of the games development should be focused on multiplayer because that's not what fallout is about, its about single player. But none the less I would play it if it met my requirements.


Thanks, Austin Acree

In before lock...



I kid! I Kid!



Seriously though, this thread will get locked and suggest you go to the already in progress MP discussion. There's a search function in the top-right of the forum, it works pretty well.

Todd Howard mentioned there were 3 wacky things in the works for Bethy.



I would bet gud money FO multiplayer is one of them. Afterall, didn't Bethy just win litigation that FO multiplayer is their property now?



Huh, tweet by some actor or some shizzle, seems like somethings brewing? No? Yes? lol.

Yep. Keep your hands off my fo4 code. For once they actually created a fairly stable engine, and now folks want to muck it up? No. :obliviongate:

I hope Bethesda continues to champion the effort for the ultimate single player experience long into the future.


No multiplayer in Fallout. Ever.

No multiplayer in TES. Ever.

I don't want an online multiplayer, but 2 player/server might work. Similar to the Skyrim mod which added an extra player to the game.

A drop in/drop out co-op system could be great, but PvP multiplayer? Eurgh.

MP does effect SP..... because it takes up dev time & budget.




And, yeah




What he said.




(also, if you want a decent MP game, it needs to be designed - game mechanics, game engine, net code - for that from the beginning. Trying to crowbar MP into a game was designed to be SP, will just give you crappy MP.)

GTA Online, Cash Card business, and how the dev treat the entire thing ruin my most favorite single player game series.



So I hope this doesn't go to Fallout.

Same I always love GTA single player and GTA 5 has a good one but GTAO doesn't add much to GTA5. The heist are fun but once you done them online is boring with overpriced weapons and cars you'll use maybe once.



Another example is Dragon Age Inquisition. Good single play but terrible and useless mp with microtransactions

No thanks. I hope it remains single player only for the entirety of the franchise. You want to play multiplayer? Pick any of the multitude of other games out with multiplayer.... there's no shortage of them.
