'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.

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.

Mubb At least they'll eventually support mods, rather than banning people for using them or being completely against them


They will be fine if there are mods at launch. There just won't be a mod tool in place at launch, that will make modding easier.

Arzua It doesn't bother me. As long as the game is good, I'll be fine.

Looking forward for this game, and I think it is good that they are trying their best to make the game "not suck."
