The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Hello All
Could resist starting a thread on this because I just feel this will be a winner. The official trailer shown at the 2018 Game Awards got an astounding 1 million hits on YouTube the first day. So why not go ahead and have a official topic for it.... The Official Site....The Outer Worlds (Obsidian) http://outerworlds.obsidian.net/ Game Directors....Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky are the game’s two co-directors, and both designers worked on the original Fallout as well as titles like Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, WildStar, and Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Game Awards 2018 Reveal Trailer..... <iframe width="670" height="378" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GNKxTT39YJ8" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Gameplay Trailer.... <iframe width="670" height="378" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EP0xv7kgIQA" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> Game Sites Reaction and Comments of Outer Worlds Premiere Reveal....

They come with unique skills....fighting, melee, sniper, doctor.... * There are six skills to level up...like the SPECIAL ones in Fallout 4.... *There will be a Fear System put in place. The game will be able to record and know your actions over a period of time, At some points you will be given an option of picking a Fear...based on something that happened to your character like a certain enemy that dealt more damage to you. If you pick that Fear, in exchange you will get a Perk for a buff in some other way * Game uses the Unreal 4 Engine |

Games like this are why I felt like Microsoft buying Obsidian was a great move.
Now I just hope the game will come out stable without any major bugs and problems, which seems to be a consistent problem with Obsidian. |
re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Facial animations look like ass, and j don't like how your constantly pointing your weapon, even in the non-combat situations. The latter issue bothers me more than the former. It's a small thing but I really hope the address that.
Otherwise this looks very promising. |

There's a variety of insights into the upcoming game on Game Informer's YouTube channel (via Eurogamer) at the moment, straight out of the Obsidian's Irvine, California studio, with co-Game Director Tim Cain and Lead Designer Charles Staples providing a few interesting info nuggets on its latest project. The first video showcases some new gameplay from The Outer Worlds, in which there's even a V.A.T.S.-style slow-motion system that grants valuable time to target enemies. Weapons include typically sci-fi lasers alongside more conventional firepower, as well as novel melee weapons like sledgehammers ans scythes. These weapons will require maintenance and repair, while companions will also play a valuable role in combat, aiding you in a skirmish by drawing away enemy fire and lending a hand. With a range of RPG mechanics and systems also promised, The Outer Worlds certainly looks promising. Game Informer also has a second video in which the game's Co-Director Leonard Boyarsky offers his response to the negative feedback that Fallout 76 has been subjected to. Both videos are pretty interesting. The Outer Worlds will be heading to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC sometime in 2019 under Take-Two's Private Division label. https://www.xboxachievements.com/new...ew-Videos.html <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MGLTgt0EEqc" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
Re: THE OUTER WORLDS: Xbox One / PS4 / PC
The humor in this one reminds me of the Space Quest / Roger Wilco games for some reason, not a bad thing.

Re: THE OUTER WORLDS: Xbox One / PS4 / PC
Gameinformer is doing a massive in depth series on The Outer Worlds this month...there's a great deal with more to come starting Monday looking at some other places you'll be visiting. Pretty good read..... https://www.gameinformer.com/theouterworlds

Re: THE OUTER WORLDS: Xbox One / PS4 / PC
Space/Sci-FI/RPG from a company with a history of quality...
DAY FUCKING ONE |
Re: THE OUTER WORLDS: Xbox One / PS4 / PC
They'll be using The Unreal 4 Engine which is fine with me. It might not look as polished compared to a lot of games out there....but it does retain that sort of rough-around-the-edge Fallout look. I know the Outer Worlds vs Fallout 76 is inevitable which the guys heading Obsidian apparently don't care for some ripping FO76 using The Outer Worlds for comparison, the Unreal 4 was released in June 2, 2012 while Bethesda's Creation Engine was in November 2011....seems to be some stark contrasts. In terms of performance and technical issues, from what little I read The U4 seems more stable and made for current system & hardware vs The Creation Engine. I just know what I saw playing FO76...was like playing some games from the mid-360 era....

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
There has been footage...45 minutes...of Gameplay released with some outlets lucky enough to get their hands on playing. I haven't...and probably won't watch the entire 45 minutes...but have skipped a bit and caught a few minutes here and there. So I'll leave it up to those on if they want to watch all or just parts.....

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
So, I was about to use a bunch of credit to preorder this when I saw this: https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/dvdtalk...718d1aa043.jpg Included with Game Pass is a really nice bonus. |

Yep, now that MS owns the company

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Interesting...and so far the PS Community is not too happy and wondering if future DLC will get the same....bias treatment....no word from Obsidian as to why...

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
It makes sense that MS/Obsidian would want to boost the desire for the XBox version.... but I still think that it's dumb not to have enhancements for the PS4 Pro.
I'll be playing this because of game pass anyway, so I'm not affected, but I get why people are disappointed in the decision. |

just makes one wonder since Obsidian was acquired by MS will the XB get special DLC or both treated equal. Plus if there will be a Outer Worlds Part II, count out the PS4.......

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Looks like it was all a misunderstanding.

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
I saw that late yesterday on a few game sites...thanks for posting that and hopefully settled down a lot of PS4 players. Still a bit curious even more now how the story got out it was only for the XB One X and not PS4 Pro. I would also like to hear about future DLC.
In a bit of good news about reviews that's a nice change from past games...Obsidian is lifting the Review Embargo days before release.... The Outer Worlds Review Embargo Lifts A Few Days Before Release Next Week.... http://www.pushsquare.com/news/2019/...unch_next_week |
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
I don’t much care for the Fallout franchise, but this certainly looks cool as hell. And fair is fair! Oh wait, that’s a movie, I mean free is free!
|
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
You have to admit...this game does look cool and fun as h*ll.....as many have said...the REAL Fallout is back....hard to pass this up....

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
The Outer Worlds' Day One Patch is as Big as the GameThe Outer Worlds, a wacky Western-style RPG set in space, is one of the most anticipated releases of the year. The Microsoft Store gives the game's approximate size is 36.78 GB. Obsidian say that the title update coming on launch day will be around 38GB to download for Xbox players who purchase physical copies of the game; around the same size as the actual game. It's around 18 GB for PS4 owners of the physical game, whilst for those who purchase it digitally on either platform, the patch will be included in the game's pre-load. |
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
I downloaded for One and it was just over 17 Gb. What up with that? I didn’t download whole game?
|
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
That's not your typical size Day One patch...last game I saw something even bigger was with Fallout 76....and sadly that game had issues for a long time even after a whopping total game install of 97gb....54gb was a patch. I don't know....
|
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
That patch size is downright stupid.

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
I am interested in this but don't like that the graphics remind me of Fallout 3 and Vegas. Those were years ago and this seems to be in the same vein. As long as the game is vein and has a cool campaign. Will wait to see a few reviews and what you guys think.

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Appears it is now up for preload for me with GamePass. That was odd.

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
I'm really interested in this, but I'm going to wait and hope that there's a sale on Black Friday.

Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Pretty solid review:
|
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Yeah, it's been getting pretty good reviews overall, and I'm looking forward to playing it!
But since I won't have time to play it for another week or two, I'll just buy it then. |
Re: The Outer Worlds (10/25/2019: PC, XB1, PS4)
Well with the review embargo lifted, Obsidian decided to let the chips fall where-ever and seems they're getting winning hands …..
