Fallout 4 PS4 Mods Have Some Serious Beta Issues

Gotta love the morons blaming Sony when Bethesda has never been a staunch Sony ally. Ultimately, if you want a genuine modding experience get a damn PC and quit crying. Though I will relish mods on my platform of choice if they can be ironed out, I am not ignorant of the fact that mods started on, and thus work better with, PC.

This makes me switch to the Xbox 1. Am I the only one that feels this way. Approximately 900 MB are you serious I was really anticipating the mods on my Fallout 4 game play but I guess not. Thanks Sony

Well fellow ps4 owners, this sounds rather dissapointing doesnt it haha. I confess that when I hear a known memory issue in a Bethesda title my save files shudder in terror. Oh well, see what happens I guess

I wounder how much microsoft paid bethesda to make eerything sony related as shitty as possible.

Bethesda games and PlayStation never work out the best.

That's what happens when Sony uses the Linux Operation System,

I am sure that Micro$$ has nothing to do with why mods are released to Xbox one first, and Bethesda is continuing to have issues with DLC and mods on the PlayStation 4. Are these legit issues on the PlayStation 4 or did Microsoft pay off Bethesda for DLC and mods?

Haaaaaa PS4 is da Weekist ... know that MS rules hahaha Only Stooopeds buy Sony !!!

Ok i'm not fooling anyone with that but some of the comments on GS are pathetic .. I do however hope Bethesda sort the issue's out quickly !! and all Gamers can enjoy the game to its fullest (Whatever their platform of choice may be).

They're going to waste a lot of time getting this to work somewhat reliably. And with a 900MB cap on PS4 and a 2GB cap on XBOX One, I'm afraid the result will be underwhelming, especially when compared to PC. I know they're bound to raise the cap, but it doesn't sound like it'll be by much. My Wrye Bash Oblivion/Skyrim mod folders are above 50GB each (compressed). They shouldn't be wasting resources on this IMO.

It's cool Bethesda is putting mods on consoles but I can't imagine the troubles encourage them to continue doing it beyond Skyrim: Special Edition.

Perhaps these are signs of growing pains. Maybe it will be smoother in the future.

The problems they mention are the sort of thing that should have been ironed out ages ago... they aren't hard, they just need somebody to do the work (e.g. talking to Sony to work out the sound/texture formats).

I get the feeling from this that they didn't actually start working on PS4 mod support until very recently, and they've got like 1 or 2 guys on it...

@ihatesony: so Mr ihatesony, why do you hate sony? Just curious.

@ihatesony: issues arent to do with the network . . . Or did you just not bother reading the article?

Its easier for the Xbox probably due to Windows being a part of its OS.

I'm not interested in mod support if that only means the ability to load mods created by PC gamers with apparently gimped functionality. I want the actual creation kit on PS4 to make our own mods because I'm a creative person. The map editor in Far Cry 4 was the defining feature of this gen so far, because it handed true creative freedom to the console gamer via a very powerful editor.

The mod support Bethesda is offering is very lame. Todd Howard is never going to treat console gamers as equals and allow peasants to have the creation kit. Yes Sony have strict rules in place that limit storage space, but the texture and audio format is a bethesda problem because the creation kit should be outputting the correct formats when it's set to export a PS4 mod. What's the use exporting to a device if what you are exporting is not compatible. That's an example of Bethesda PC arrogance. They will export to PS4 but PS4 has to change in order to load them.

The Skyrim remaster is another example of Bethesda PC arrogance with Todd Howard enjoying rockstar status. Console gamers have to pay $60 for a remastered game they have already played in order to subsidise PC gamers who get the remaster free. The excuse is that the PC version was higher quality than the console version, yet the PC gamers never paid extra for that luxury. If the remaster is of no benefit to PC gamers, then don't port it to PC. If it is of value, PC gamers should pay for it, not be subsidised by console gamers.

Man, it's times like this I wish we still had Feedbackula.

Last generation, the excuse for poorer performance of Skyrim or Fallout 3 on the PS3 was understandable, because of the PS3's system Ram being half of the Xbox 360's.

This generation there is absolutely no excuse for this garbage. The PS4 uses faster DDR5 ram, and has a better GPU than the Xbox One. It proves that Bethesda prioritizes Xbox hardware over PlayStation. It's the f ucking truth, and Todd Howard can go suck one. Used to really admire this guy...not anymore.

Maybe they just dont know how to work it lol. Either way I dobt like Fallout 4. I have it for PC and had to jailbreak the game and go into the files and set resolution to 4K. It was stuck at like box shape 1200x900 or something. With no option to change resolution to even 1080p. Now im stuck at a spot where i have no ammo andbgotta fight that huge creature lol

The PS4 isnt powerful enough to handle mods. Lol. Get the more powerful Xbox One or wait til the Neo comes out. Lol. I'm joking of course but I love laughing at this stuff just because I despise fanboyism of all flavors.

It's always the SAME crap with any competition against M$. Apple doesn't have games on it's system but is available on M$. Suspiciously, you have to buy/subscribe to software from M$ & or their official website to make it run games on Apple. Then there's Playstation. PS doesn't get even the most popular games,/DLC on time, or they're buggy compared to M$'s. Yet all games, & DLC for Playstation, when it's exclusive to Playstation, or when M$ isn't looking, those games/DLC will run just fine. I never noticed all this until BUG-thesda's Fallout 3, and Elder scrolls' Oblivion games came out BETTER with more DLC, then Ps had. Yet, it was running TERRIBLE on 360. It was definitly rushed.

You guys can't believe they don't sabotage at least some of these games...

It always looks to me like M$ can't stand competition.

Ever since M$'s console came on the scene, games don't all the sudden run well on PS. I've been playing games since BEFORE M$'s "ME TOO" console was on the scene. There's was such respect for what PS does. They made great games, & great memories. M$ saw a money opportunity, and they pounced. I could see why. Around the time, they released Their Me2 Console in 2001, they were getting SUED by the United States & Eurpeon Union & being labelled as an "Abusive Monopoly"! HA! They're not in it for the games. If they were, they would've been in the games & console division from the beginning. It was thanks to Playstation/Nintendo to show them, this is a money making industry. When the other gaming companies fell out of existence (Atari, Sega) They still didn't show up on the scene. When Sony broke off with with Nintendo, & made a VERY successful name brand for themselves, ALL the sudden M$ is interested in making gaming consoles. Sony has been around since the 40's. YES! Founded on May 7th 1946!!! Sony KNOWS what it is doing. The fact that Sony would ever have problems is bull. To top it off, Sony's console is 6 years older then M$'s. Even releasing a console a year apart makes a difference when it comes to how successful a console will be compared to your competitor's.

I don't see how a company can do WORSE with it's products, as it gets more experience, not better. To make more mistakes?! VERY odd.

And at the same time...conveniently, enough (as usual for M$) I don't see how your competition can do better, when they're the fumbling noobs on the scene.

I'm just going to throw this out there: I think M$ hates creativity SO much from their greatest competition (Playstation) that it might have messed up our getting Silent Hills.

I think this game could've single-handedly done a lot of "damage" to the minds of M$'s biggest fanatics. Making them cross over to PS. PS has the upper hand, & has millions of games at it's disposal, to re-make. That will always be M$'s greatest threat. lol

Does this mean Skyrim, will be a hot mess?! Probably. Hell, they can even rush the hell out of it on M$'s console as well as PC!!! Buyer beware.
