Where will Bethesda look for feedback? What will they add?

Post » Sat Dec 05, 2015 10:51 am

It was stated not long before release that future DLC and free updates will be made based on wanted features and feedback from players. I am curious where they will be looking though? I have never seen anyone except forum mods here so I don't know if the devs themselves look here often. The fallout subreddit also seems to be very active but again no dev activity.

So where do you think they will be looking, and wha do you guys think will be address in future updates and DLC judging by current popular opinions?

Just because a dev doesn't speak doesn't mean they aren't reading.

Its called being a silent observer.

They have a website for reporting bugs and suggestions, that is where they will look.

They may not be saying anything, but they're watching. Don't you worry.

They're probably looking through a lot of fan forums and going through lots of reviews to find the most common complaints. Well, the most actionable complaints, at least - there's nothing they can do with an update or DLC to get anyone to start saying it's finally an RPG, but the lack of weapon variety is something they can address in a DLC no problem.

I do think one of their main focuses will be adding way more weapons and armors. Bethesda's not the type to do weapon packs, though, like what Obsidian did for New Vegas with Gun Runner's Arsenal; I imagine they'll just throw in a ton with their story expansions, like what they did for Skyrim and Fallout 3. (I'd honestly wager that Fallout 4's DLC pattern will be very similar to Skyrim's)

Surprised a Suggestion thread was never Pinned (that I know of).

On that note, Settlers with a job should be renamed. Farmer, guard, scavenger, etc. Easy enough fix I would think/hope.
And if no layering armor, then allow them to be modded with 2-3 slots.

Sorry, not sure where to put these comments without starting another thread that will just get buried. 8 l
