Fallout 76: E3 Trailer

TerminallyChill; mate, you are completely missing the point?
That one perk that completely fits your play style but somehow doesn't ever show up will be specifically absent on purpose?
Why? you ask and I'^m glad for that question because us fine folks at Bethesda have been hard at work to save you from yourself.
Think what would have happened if you were able to min-max your character.
You guessed it right, in just 20 hours you would have become-ed (tenses shmenses) the bestest best specialist and that would have been booooooring.
Instead, the fine folks at Bethesda insure that you will have ages of playtime before you can finally reach your goal and achieve your build?
Isn't it great?

Fallout 76 Perk Cards

As players earn experience points in Fallout 76 and level up, they will accrue perk points; one per level. Gamers who played Fallout 4 will recognize this system. However, the way that players spend perk points in Fallout 76 is very different from the perk chart from Fallout 4. Players can choose to spend each perk point in one of the seven S.P.E.C.I.A.L. categories. When you spend a perk point, instead of choosing a perk from a chart, the game will display three different “Perk Cards”. Each of these cards offers a different perk, with three ranks for each, and players can choose a single card to invest the perk point in and keep.
Each of the Fallout 76 Perk Cards has an Upgrade System
Each perk card has its own upgrade system, with a 1-star, 2-star, and 3-star rank. Each rank offers a better version of the base perk, similar to most of the perks in Fallout 4. While the process of unlocking perk cards is different, the way to use them is also very different. Instead of having permanent access to all perks that you invest in, you have a limited number of perk card slots. You can choose to assign any perk card which you have invested in to one of these slots, thus gaining the perk’s benefits. Although you can’t use all of your perk cards at the same time, you can switch them around on the fly.

Vampire as some sort of Mutation style Perk card? Ugh.

We are clearly in the darkest timeline. :(
 
But guys... Now we can be a vampire and then all of a sudden we can just stop being a vampire and be something else in a blink of the eye. All we have to do is change the Perk card.

Now this is how RPGs should do choice and consequence and character customization. Look at all the possibilities and it also has lots of limitations since you can only have 3 cards active at any time. We can also give our cards to friends, so they can personalize their characters too the way they want to at that time.

It's like the best of RPGs with the best of CCGs! :V
 
This is going to be impressively crappy even for a Beth Fallout. No, really, I'm IMPRESSED at how many "crap" boxes they're ticking here.
 
BUT GUUUUYS!
You are missing the brand-spankin-new game modes this wiil enable.

You can now set up limited time, draft tournament scenarios where each participant gets to draft his class and compete with others on the interwebs! It will be grand!
Only for 99¢ a pop! It's a steal I tell you, it's a steal!
 
"There's totally going to be roleplaying in our online game."
*proceeds to set up a system that will incentivize the fuck out of powerbuilding*
"Totally, guys."

If I can place burning barrels and mattresses in mah settlement and roleplay as hobo, then it's a roleplaying game, don't know where is your problem.

It won't let me roleplay as the world's biggest asshole, if all the crap they're planning to put in to hinder PvP interactions is any indication. This is an outrage.

Pete Hines stated; “If you want to have the Minutemen, then be a Minuteman and recruit other people to be Minutemen who go around the world helping folks and finding settlements that need help and going and do that. If you want to be a trader, if you want to travel around the map or you want to build an outpost where people come and buy and sell stuff, you should do that. You don’t need us to craft those systems. The game will just allow you to do that. You go be who you want in this world.”

Ahahahahahaha... It's so sad and hilarious that they are so clueless about these things.

No kidding, the very first sentence describes Pete hines perfectly. "If You want to a minutemen, be a minutemen". Somebody needs to fire that moron. Attention span of a goldfish, ignorant, cant understand RPG for shit.

Reminds me how he accused modders of being hackers, because bugthesda refused to release geck.

Still, plenty of morons just like him will buy this shitty game, because IT Has got Fallout name in it.
 
I doubt anyone will fire Pete. He is Bethesda Softworks' vice-president. Only one person can fire Pete.

Do you think this guy will fire Pete:

He knows even less about games than Hines. He is a true businessman.
