(PSN)zeratul____12 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I'm just wondering how will Bethesda will implement the mods, like for instance, will it be possible to make them on console or will they only be made on PC, and then they will be screened by the Dev's and then approved for download on the consoles.

crazyN00b Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I somehow can't imagine creating mods on console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickBox Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I assume they'll only be avalable on PC. But maybe they could add some as free DLCs on consoles stores.But they won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Error989 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 My guess is that mods that demand more power (are more APU demanding) wont be available because PS4 and XBOne can hardly run Fallout 4 as is at medium-ish graphics settings.And yes they have to be made on PC (you cant 3D model on a console xD) and ofc that they will have to be approved by devs...meaning it will be really really limited...

AM-Bunny Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 They've confirmed that mods will be available on consoles. They still have to be approved by Sony, so no nude mods or anything that has gross copyright infringement. That being said, I'm curious how this will be implemented myself.

Kai_Shiba Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Modding would be very limited to consoles. It's possible, but not like what the PC can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)zeratul____12 Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) I somehow can't imagine creating mods on console. well, i have heard that this new console generation is on par with a middle to low-end PC. So its not entirely out of the question, they'd just need to design an interface for it Edited November 20, 2015 by (PS4)zeratul____12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero.No.Hikari Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Console mods may just be cosmetic stuff that doesn't push the consoles too hard. They'll probably be filtered by Bethesda (so no nude mods for console pervs) but for PC who knows. I'm wondering if they'll be able to do extensive mods that are like expansions because of the dialogue systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noveltyhero Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Didn't Bethesda talk about creating a system for mod purchasing? First off, mod buying will be back, secondly the really good things might get ported as a DLC to consoles. Most importantly, some mods will become obscure through DLC patches, Skyrim had this where Bethesda added and changed quite a few things to make them part of the core game rather than mod necessity.

(XBOX)Grihaly Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 If I recall correctly, all PC mods will be downloadable for XB1, AFAIK PS4 doesn't get get mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know what they're doing is finding popular mods on PC and adding them to the PS4/XB1 store as either free downloads or microtransactions. Hopefully they'll atleast check to make sure you don't need a script extender to run that mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)KestralSylver Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) so no nude mods or anything that has gross copyright infringement. BUT THOSE ARE THE ONLY THINGS I WANT!!! Worst news ever... Jk If I recall correctly, all PC mods will be downloadable for XB1, AFAIK PS4 doesn't get get mods. They've announced that PS4 will get mods just like XB1, they just didn't have anything official on that at the time of the E3 presentation, so it wasn't mentioned.

Yes, but i love the taste of salt though, anyway i don't hate the Xbox or its games for that matter. I hate the Microsoft company in general actually.

izzatuw Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 First of all. R.I.P all dialogue quests. Secondly, consoles hardly run the game at 30 FPS at probably low-med res. The most I'm realistically seeing is armor/weapon mods, retextures etc. I truly doubt we're gonna be getting Project Nevada/FWE on consoles.

Freelancer27 Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I suspect MxR, a popular youtuber advertising Skyrim mods, to be announcing a handful of them probably this December, considering the development time of the mods and how new the game just came out.

Probably the same way mods worked on UT3 on PS3, IE the mods would get uploaded to bethesda somewhere, then the approved ones can be downloaded via an in-game menu. Contrary to popular belief mods for console are no new thing, they are just usually more limited than PC mods, and cannot change anything resolution wise.

You would be surprised as to how many console mods there were, sadly most of them are behind sites that require membership or even payed subscriptions. A lot of console mods could simply be added in via the save file, others required you to move the game files to PC and then modify it on PC and move it back and the game would recognize the mods as an official patch. Modding for console was quite safe so long as the mods took into account the hardware that it had available. Some mods could be highly stressful for a console and cause it to crash. However you had to be careful with console mods because you could be account and/or console banned for using them in a multiplayer environment, regardless of whether the mod gave you no performance advantage or not. Although towards the end of the X360 days I will admit I used a lot of mods on dead island in MP, that game was too boring to play unmodded.
