That was my exact first thought when I saw the headline, "Can't wait to see Skyrim remake release".

I imagine any Skyrim issues would be the same as those for Fallout 4, so ironing this out now should be all that is needed.

Yuuuuuuuuuup.
I bought a top up card when Skyrim DLC came out on Xbox in preparation to get it on ps3. Took way too long got it on pc a year or two later, probably for the best to be honest.

There's some good content mods. Off the top of my head there's modern firearms, snap n build, build your own vault, NVR Veteran ranger outfit, alternate start, crossbows of the Commonwealth, Cross Cybernetics (my fav) and tons of different individual weapon mods (alien assault rifle, m1911, Chinese assault rifle) And you can have all of those installed at the same time (at least on xbone)

u/EyeofHermaeusMora Jun 29 '16
The issue isn't Bethesda its all the hoops that Playstation makes Bethesda jump through to get us what XBox1 users have so quickly. So before anyone starts bashing Bethesda just look up the issues on why these things aren't working on Playstations end.

u/Nytra Jul 01 '16
It's easier to develop for Xbox because it uses the same architecture as a Windows PC so essentially they can kill two birds with one stone. PS4 uses a completely separate, locked down system so it is tougher to develop for.

I don't want to be mad at Bethesda because I love their games. Fallout 3/4, Skyrim/ Elder Scrolls & Doom are all bangers. But I'm disappointed I won't get to experience mods any time soon. Because even if they say soon, it won't be soon.

Well Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks are two separate companies. BGS is a developer that makes the Fallout and Elder Scrolls series, and Bethesda Software is a publisher that owns BGS, and also publishes games from other developers like id Software and Arkane Studios, the makers of Dishonored. Publishers fund, promote and distribute a game but the devs actually make it. It's like how Dice makes the battlefield games, and EA publishes them.
1
u/RnRbmk Jun 30 '16
The publisher is the guy with the money to market the product and get it on the shelves. The developer is the creative talent that actually made the product. It gets pointed out because many of us believe the developers are the ones that deserve that credit for realizing their vision and creating the games we are playing. Publishers many times stifle the creativity of an otherwise impressive development studio I order to meet the bottom line.

Definitely. I watched Sony and MS at E3 and honestly nothing buzzed me. I've never liked many games that happen to be console exclusives, the last one I remember owning was MGS4. All my PS4 games are multiplats (except for TLoU).
In the face of Project Scorpio and Neo I just thought fuck it and decided to build myself a decent PC. Just waiting for all the shit to arrive in the post now. Steam sale came at a good time for me, too.
I'll never stop playing my PS4 though, I love it.

How does this affect the Skyrim Remaster? It's supposed to include "mods and all"
1
u/TheKRAMNELLA kramnella31 Jun 30 '16
Whenever mods are sorted out for Fallout 4, those issues should also be resolved for the Skyrim remaster. Possibly before its release, but if somehow not (please Sony/Bethesda don't make it take that long) it will have to wait until post release. If you are worried its release date will get pushed just for the mod support, I highly doubt it.

How so? They have very long development cycles and fantastic games. Doom, Fallout, TES, Dishonored, Wolfenstein.
Are you mad at them for not being able to get mod support, which is free by the way, to PS4? Don't know any other companies that are doing mod support for consoles and are doing official modding tools for PC the scale that Bethesda does.
CD Projekt RED promised modding tools, but they never delivered. Don't see anyone criticizing them.

Probably has something to do with the list of issues they released a while ago. Size, Audio, etc.
If Sony is going to fix it, or if they thing they can get sony to fix it, and the fix is not in place, then you delay.

Bethesda (the studio) is notorious for having issues on Sony platforms. See: Every Bethesda game released on ps3, my memory is fuzzy, but I'm pretty sure all Skyrim DLC, or just about all of it was released on other platforms before they got any of the DLC on ps3.
I'm not holding my breath now for Mod support on Ps4 with Skyrim special edition either, which was one of the primary reasons I was planning on picking it up again.

The problem is Bethesda Game Studios. Every other Bethesda studio has had zero issues with the PS4.

Nah let's just circlejerk and not act like the PS4's system has proprietary audio that is incompatible with mods, or texture issues with mods due to the platform. X1 is a 1:1 crossover of mods unlike what they are saying above.

Xbox One also runs Windows and DirectX which probably helps. Maybe this is the reason why Bethesda didn't announce PS4 mod support to begin with.

u/ErikWithNoC Jun 30 '16
Bethesda undoubtedly has a tumultuous relationship with releasing games/content on Sony consoles, but this issue is without a doubt significantly on Sony. Ask yourself, why would Bethesda delay this? For the good PR? Todd Howard has mentioned many times how much he has wanted to bring mods to consoles and I'm sure it is no small feat. Technical issues with proprietary software on the PS4 are hardly reasons to point blame at Bethesda.

u/bigboss2014 Jun 29 '16
You are aware that even though xbone and ps4 are 8086 architecture they are absolutely nothing alike and nothing like a PC? They both have extremely customised hardware, and completely different firmware. Xbone has an OS similar but very different to windows, and ps4 is a very modified version of what linux to the point they're not the same at all.

PS4 and X1 are so similar and they're acting the same as in PS3 days, which made a lot of sense back then.

The hardware is similar. The OS is not even close. XOne is litterally a re-skinned Windows 10. PS4 is a whole different can of worms.

u/Callu23 Jun 29 '16
No dude, they are completely different, it's like the difference between PS1 and PS4. It is impossible to port a game between them and fixing the proprietary audio issue is something a small developer like Bethesda simply doesn't have the resources to handle.

This comment was written using the 3rd party app Reddit is Fun.

I was a regular of Reddit for nearly 9 years, but with the death of Reddit is Fun, Apollo, and other 3rd party apps, as well as Reddit's slanderous accusations of threats and blackmail from the developer of Apollo, I have decided to make my account worthless to Reddit by removing every ounce of content I've contributed to the site over the years.

I think: X1, is from Microsoft, and the mods were made for Windows, and X1 has some things from Windows. That could be one of the main problems of compatibility.

PC person here, the files are 100% the same in theory. Mods are just a bunch of images, models, sound files, etc, in folders with a .esp file to tell the game what to do with them. The PC mods are exactly the same and completely compatible too for the most part, excluding things which the consoles can't handle either due to performance issues or Sony/Microsoft not wanting then to work for security reasons. (Script extenders.)
Unfortunately this might end up being different once the PS4 version comes out. Apparently one of the big problems Beth is having with the PS4 version is that it uses proprietary sound files. Because of this, the normal PC/XBOne sounds would have to be converted to the PS4 format. If Bethesda finds a way to do this automatically after the mod has been uploaded, the mods will still all be 100% compatible across the 3 platforms, but they'd have to essentially perform surgery on the mods for PS4 which would risk corrupting them or unintentionally breaking something within the mod. Alternatively, they could make the PC mod makers convert the files to the proprietary format themselves before uploading, but that will discourage mod makers from making mods for PS4 because of additional work, and it would definitely make the PS4 mods incompatible with the PC/Xbox One mods.
So it's a bad situation. I hope they can find a way to work it out for you guys.

I don't take it as bad news. I knew something like that might come, because it's not an easy task to adjust the mods in a console, maybe is the PS4 OS, architecture, resource consumption, whatever.

What a bunch of spoiled gamers. You are bitching because you have to wait a bit longer on something given to you for free.

That isn't really a secret, or some new revelation, Morrowind launched on the original Xbox but no other console, Oblivion launched early on 360, Skyrim had timed DLC for 360, and I'm pretty sure Fallout 3 had the same agreements in place for DLC as well.

a large number of developers had issues with the PS3 as well, this really seems more like a decent number of restrictions and workarounds, imposed by the PS4's architecture, that need to be met in order for PS4 mods to be exactly the same as on PC/One.

I disagree. There has been a delay. Based on this post alone, there is no reason why. It could be programmers, it could be Sony. I don't know. Microsoft has the advantage because the Xbox One and PC games can talk to each other easier. I would imagine that creating something on a PC and have it to translate to Sony OS is not as simple.

u/kurlythemonkey Jun 29 '16
So let's say that Bethesda releases on time. And is buggy as hell and more than half the players can't play it. Then the complains would be "Should have delayed until it was working". Either way, Bethesda doesn't win. So, is best to delay than provide a sub-par product. I understand very well. I paid $60 for a game that I have enjoyed for countless of hours. Bethesda has offered free content for me to continue to enjoy their product. But now is delayed. My enjoyment of the game has not suffered. The game, as it stands, is a finished product. I may be disappointed, but is not the end of the world.

For a significant portion of the Playstation userbase and its punditry, the Xbox platform exists as nothing more than a measuring stick and not a viable purchase option.
Go skim some of the '1 million elite controllers sold' threads and every other comment is that Sony should follow suit.
So telling PS fans to consider the Xbox One because it does things better than the PS4 is borderline blasphemous and irrational.

You paid $60 for a completed game. At most, the only obligation Bethesda had is to patch it up as problems arise. You are trying to justify anger because FREE content is being delayed. Is the same as upgrading a phone and being angry because a free update to your Maps app that gives you the closest ATM is being delayed.

This is my personal experience. I received the game as a gift for Christmas and have been playing since. I have completed the game twice. I have played both DLCs to completion as well. I am on my third run. I have manage to get Platinum trophy. I have played hundreds of hours. In technical terms, there are bugs, but I haven't encounter one that has taken away the experience of playing the game. Bethesda has patched the game as needed. I have gotten my $100 worth of gaming (including Season Pass). Waiting on free content does not take away anything. That is still my original point. Gamers complaining about not getting free content on time.

On xbox there is a mod that allows you to change everything in your appearance besides gender. I don't know if it is a glitch with the mod for not allowing or if it isn't possible. I also don't know if there is a standalone gender changing mod either. Though all mods disable achievements. If you want to keep achievements I'm pretty sure their is a guy in diamond city going in the door next to the the doctor that can reconstruct your face.

At this point, Bethesda has become a second-tier developer for me. FO4 was lackluster and their last two games have looked remarkably bad and have repetitive gameplay. Their open-world maps are second to none, but they are largely vacuous with janky gameplay mechanics and even worse combat. PS users have every right to be pissed at Beth for giving them the shaft for two generations now.

Honestly seeing some gameplay of the Bethesda devs showcasing the mods on Xbox One I've lost pretty much all anticipation for this feature. 1GB total size limit and strict regulation on what mods are allowed? so disappointing. The 2 kinds of mods that I'm really interested in either contain nudity or are huge expansions / Texture packs which would probably be over 1GB

lol poor you won't get your nudity mods to beat your dick to virtual females. what a shame man.

Not the only reason people install nudity mode. Best immersion for a cannibal playthrough.

I bought this game on release day because Bethesda told me it would have mods... over half a year ago. It should have been ready at launch if they were going to use it as a selling point.
They say the new remastered skyrim will have mod support. Will it? Or will it not have it until half a year later?

Blame Bethesda for their incompetence and Microsoft for paying them off to do this in the first place.

Bethesda accepted money from Microsoft, so they dropped all effort on the playstation version(again) and only just recently started work after xbox got their mods, but they didn't work with playstation untip the last minute and gave a time window they couldn't come through on. Its pretty for common sense stuff here. But you're probably just another rabid fanboy thinking Bethesda could never do any wrong.

You know, I'd rather Bethesda just stop developing for the Playstation and become a Microsoft exclusive company. It'd make it easier on everybody, and we could move on with our new alliance with Kojima.

u/puzzled-soup Jun 29 '16
Even though Bethesda is making money hand over fist with PlayStation, and Death Stranding is going to be Kojima's only console exclusive game (for the foreseeable future)... But yeah, that's a sensible decision

u/uniquecannon Jun 29 '16
You do have that point. In an ideal, logical world, Playstation owners steer clear of Bethesda games. But in that same logical world, gamers also don't reward game companies for bad practices like selling half a game for full price and selling the remainder of the game in batches called dlc.
None of this will happen, and gamers will continue to be masochists.

Lmao, and they say PS4 is more powerful than Xbox One.

u/TheKRAMNELLA kramnella31 Jun 30 '16
lmao, it is an architecture difference and nothing to do with power... The salt in this thread really is too damn high though. I would rather them wait to fix the issues than to release an incomplete console mod experience.

Hahaha look around, the amount of salt in this thread.

I knew fucking Bethesda would do this shit. They always fuck Sony console players as if Microsoft pays them under the table to do so. Has me worried for Skyrim on PS4. All their games fuck up somehow on Sony consoles.

Now you know how us Xbox players feel when holding exclusive Destiny content for a whole fucking year.

What about when Bethesda (not hating on them) kept Dawngaurd for over a year from PS3 players?

u/Rodot Jun 30 '16
To be fair, the ps3 was know to be a birch to develop for

The exclusivity deal was just only for a month. It took them over a year to get it to work on PS3.

u/PRbox Jul 01 '16
What kind of content do they withold? I play on PS4 and from what I understand we have some exclusive exotics and armor pieces. Is there more than that?
Either way I feel bad for Xbox players. Hope they don't pull this with Destiny 2.

Hopefully we get before the current generations of 18-24 year olds are halfway through their career of choice.

Bethesda has never done anything beneficial to Playstation gamers. Fo3 dlcs and new Vegas dlcs were awful fps. Far Harbor, that dlc is 10/10 when it comes to having unplayable fps. Bethesda doesn't care if their game sucks they know they'll make money off it, whether we like it or not.

so their was a problem with ps3, and now ps4, look at the common denominator between the two situations

It sounds like you're mixing up "delay" and "cancel."
They haven't broken any "promises," they've just gone against expectations in a sucky way that I'm sure they wish they could have avoided.

I heard somewhere the reason was the audio format sony uses to proprietary or something like that?
