'Fallout 4' won't support user mods this fall

4.6
One of the biggest surprises from E3 this year was that Fallout 4 would support user mods across PC and Xbox One. That's still in the cards, but it definitely won't happen at launch. Of course, that's because the tools that'd allow you to, say, replace the game's fearsome bear-like enemies the Yao Guai with 3D models of Yogi the Bear don't exist yet according to IGN. Publisher Bethesda Softworks' vice president of marketing Pete Hines says that the team's focus is on making sure the game ships on time. "Our entire focus is on finishing the game," he said. "Nobody cares about mods if the game sucks." Concise! Once Fallout 4 proper is done (and the team likely takes a bit of a break), work on The Creation Kit will begin; it'll take "clearly into next year," according to Hines.

Seems like a good idea, if the game sucks then that would ruin it completely.

BloomyPosted:

I was really excited for this feature so this is very upsetting to hear.. Hopefully they get this up and going soon after Fall.

I have a feeling this is going end up like what Rockstar did with GTA v, where they took a year to give us heists. Hopefully we have the mods by christmas

-Corgi People can still make mods with mod tools. This just means that they aren't making an official mod tool yet, right? User created mods without the mod tool will still be available I'm guessing.


Yeah they can, but it'll be illegal because you won't have permission to make mods yourself.


It wont be illegal, it's just not officially supported at launch.

This doesn't really bother me. I just can't wait to play the game.
