Dear console players. Please stop spamming modders to port their mods.

martin_haddock · 4時間前

Not all of us are like this :)

I really appreciate whatever the modding community make for us Console Players.

I am actually happy to be finally in your debt and have the ability to have some mods! Personally just want an NCR veteran ranger outfit :D...make it now ;) just kidding.

Ignore the minority of fools my friend. Block them out and just do what you do best.

Speaking as a console owner: This was my fear. I be way off base here, and this is in no way a PCMR sentiment (I game primarily on console); I just feel like there are far more immature players on console than PC by design. Mostly because parents don't have as much problem shelling out 300 bucks for a console, but high end gaming PC's can he cost prohibitive to buy for your teen or tween. Again, I don't want to insult console gamers. There are far more that are conscientious, mature and well mannered.

The thing is, that vocal minority really need to keep themselves in check this time. This whole console mod movement right now is an experiment. If we piss off the modders, they won't mod for us. Without quality mods, no one uses them. Then, the experiment fails, and we don't get mods anymore.

Aside from the macro level, there's the micro level. I want to see all the great mods for FO4 come to consoles. So why don't we show our appreciation so much, as to entice the folks that are on the fence as far as console modding, to come over to the dark side. Show modders love, is what I'm saying.

That said, thanks to you and all the other modders out there who are thinking of us. I for one, really do appreciate it. Mods on a console have been something I've always wanted to see, and the folks that are making it a reality have, and deserve, my unyielding respect and admiration. Please, for the love of all that is holy and sacred, keep doing what you're doing!

I've actually thought about starting a modder appreciation thread, but I'm not sure how that would work with forum rules, or how it would go over with communities, or if modders would even be interested in seeing people gushing over your their work. Advise me! I would love to start a thread like that anywhere and everywhere you think it would be appropriate!

TL;dr: I love you modders!

Console player here, just wanting to show you support because there are plenty of us waiting patiently who already appreciate what you modders do.

I know how much of a downer all of that negativity can be; I used to be on the Destiny forums during the first year, and that shitty entitled attitude is a nightmare (and it wasn't even directed at me, but at the devs, I really feel bad for you modders getting treated like that.) .

I hope I'm not pushing the wrong buttons here by asking this, but you sound like a very experienced modder and I wanted to take this opportunity to ask someone like you directly.

Do you know if it would be possible to enable the dev console on the Xbox version with a mod? Might it be as simple as enabling it, then we can plug in a USB keyboard and press that magical ~ key? Even if it was that simple, is it the kind of thing that Microsoft wouldn't approve? This has been my number one hope for a console mod, even though I know it's a long shot.

Either way, thanks for what you do.

I play on PS4, and my only question is "is it possible to bring this mod to console?" I wouldn't demand it, hell no, but there are some mods I would be curious about bringing to the PS4 when we get mods there.

Slingster · 3時間前

"Why can't I make mods on my Xbox" - It's apparent that console players seem to think that the G.E.C.K is simply a program that works like an in-game editor (LittleBigPlanet creation or DOOM snap map).

Learn what modding is before you go insulting the veterans of the modding community. This is even happening on the Nexus? Pretty disappointing.

But also OP tone down the "console peasant" attitude.

ImUrHell · 3時間前

Ahh, I never thought of this being an issue. I'm mainly a console player, and I have been really hyped to get mods finally to console. This is a great thing though, and hopefully we see more and more games following this. Of course console gamers are normally more children than PC gamers, and they need to be taught that consoles can't handle the things a PC can, but hopefully this will come into light when they install clashing mods and freak out. Maybe once the mods come out, more console gamers will try to make their own mods, and see how hard it can be. Then maybe the shitposts will die down some. Just don't think all console gamers are assholes. A lot of us silent ones know how much work it takes to make a mod, and while we are hoping we get loads of great mods, we know the limits and we appreciate all the work modders put into it.

darkweaver66 · 2時間前

At least for me, im super glad that so many modders and big mods are working towards console release :) that said i would happily donate for certain mods which require a great deal of change to work on console to help the mod developer do his thing, and im sure i cant be the only one. Not all of us console peasents are evil :(

damican1982 · 2時間前

Please don't throw us all into the same hat. You have to understand that majority of console players don't even use nexus or bethesda.net ( I use them for Skyrim and FNV ) but in 4+ years I been using those sites, I never once posted anything.

This is pretty much the only game that's going to get mods on consoles. so why would I go and call people that will make that possible names? So a particular mods won't come to consoles? Sucks, but I'll do without it.

So to the OP: Just ignore them and move on. I for one am grateful that you're working on mods for consoles. Keep it up.

dr_bluthgeld · 1時間前

Hate to hear that, I've never really shared that view because I've always been a console gamer and have never lusted after the idea of having mods. Sorry for those who are ruining your hobby, hope that doesn't put you off keeping it up though, I don't see why they should ruin something you enjoy.

Noah-x3 · 1時間前

Do I sense some sort of bias here toward console owners? You do seem to generalize the very small amount of people guilty of expressing self-entitlement here. These few individuals you've seen are just vocal and excited about the ambitious plan to bring modifications to console platforms. In your placement you should consider positively addressing their appreciation for your work. Whining about other people whining just seems a tad bit hypocritical to me.

TehPuppy · 4時間前

Ugh, that's just cringey to hear. I am a console player anxiously awaiting the nodding scene's arrival but I personally am well aware that the majority of the good mods won't even be able to get ported over just due to console performance limitations. I guess my point is, not all of us are entitled little shits. I hesitate to say this is a vocal minority thing just judging from previous experience with other console related issues, but just know we aren't all like this.

rax85 · 4時間前

Keep in mind the people being rude with spamming and nasty language have the actual time to sit down and write these childish things because, well, they are probably children. The rest of us console users who are mature are probably too busy playing the game and enjoying life to bother making any such requests. Personally, I would love mods on console FO4, and I'd appreciate any effort made to make that possible.

bridgesfolly · 3時間前

I play both on PC and Console. After playing the shit out of all the fallouts and skyrim on consoles I wanted to extend the play-ability and decided to get it for PC too. Totally worth it. Mods are amazing and i'm super excited that they're coming to consoles. I have the utmost respect and appreciate for what modders do. I've actually been thinking I might want to start teaching myself how to create my own mods.

SkittlesMeDittles · 2時間前

Console owner here, little to no PC experience. We're all not as stupid as some of our console comrades would have you think, but I think this post speaks to much more than just modding. I think OP's experience in general just describes current day gaming. Entitled brats, bigots, assholes, etc. It's sad that gaming went from being nerdy and geeky to becoming something a falsely entitled brat becomes associated with.

Of course I have no idea on how to fix the problem, unless a purge or something went down. Just one sad gamer's thoughts that I thought should be shared.

dang3r_muffin · 3時間前

Yeah that's no good. Hopefully this is just a weird time of people getting over excited that we finally get mods. Still no way to react or behave. I will continue to wait patiently! Thanks for everything you guys do to make our experience better!

Lord_Ka1n · 11分前

What needs to happen is there needs to just be a check box to make the mid available on console. And that needs to be checked by default.

It's a fact that most people don't bother changing any default settings, so few will go out of their way to change it and make it available, and even fewer would go out of their way to uncheck it and make it unavailable.

Yeah, there's always a lot of those people. It's even worse due to the fact that a lot of the grateful people are busy enjoying the mods ingame while the "loudest" people tend to be rude and heard more often.

Although there's the fact that Bethesda bringing mods to consoles is a pretty new thing for their playerbase, so lots of people don't understand what actually happens with modding and are used to not having to read to find out.

If it makes you feel any better, there's a lot of people (me included) who extremely appreciate the work that modders do, whether big or small. . Or you could always take a break and entertain yourself with the comments, because some of them sound pretty funny.

I think that the large part of the problem is that so many console only players, be it little kids or adults, dont have a lot of knowledge when it comes to how modding works. Hell I dont either, but im the type that likes to read and educate myself first so that I have more confidence in what I'm talking about. But please dont let these individuals ruin your dedication to your hobby that you take pleasure in.

Ekserowan · 2時間前

one thing people have to remember as well: a large group of modders have doubts porting their mods because of the loud minority of people killing mods at bethesda.net because of the horrible rating system. thats something the devs should do something about. alot of console players have waited for a long time to be able to play with mods and its sad that some of the best mods wont be ported in because some people were traumatized with the way bethesda.net users treated them and their mods.

WykkydGaming · 1時間前

I've done add-ons and small mods for games myself. I've seen the swarm of entitlement hit nexus like a wave. I feel for you, and the rest of the mod community. I really do. But this is precisely why I've mostly steered clear of making anything I do public (just simple bat files I've published, and not even maintained).

One thing people forget:

Modders do this for free.

You are entitled to exactly nothing. Nothing. You didn't buy anything from them. They haven't sold you a product and refused to deliver. They are doing their work out of the kindness of their heart in the manner, and medium, they personally prefer. They aren't your slave.

You don't have to like this fact. You don't have to like that mod ### isn't available to you, and you really want mod ###. You also don't have to be a complete dick and assault someone who did something for free, usually at the cost of a lot of free time and stress.

If you can't use a specific mod because a specific author won't do what you want, or publish it how you want... tough. Guess what, I ate the rest of my home-made 14-hour smoked pork shoulder for lunch today with home-made, home-grown carolina reaper sauce and it was delicious. You can't have that either.

It should be mentioned that Console gaming has a fair amount of children on it compared to P.C Gaming just because P.Cs are pretty expensive and complicated to acquire and maintain for gaming purposes. This is important as the people spaming the boards are probably not old enough to even play the game, judging from some of the responses you received. Don't take it as console gamers being entitiled. Take it as COD types brats doing what they do best, being childish and annoying.

Gruffily_Wilkins · 49分前

CommanderPaco · 38分前

On bethesda's forum page the comments on my mod are 4 pages of "plz bring to xbox" Even though it says in the description I designed it specifically to work on xbox (simple scripts, no hi-res assets)

On the nexus console owners are posting rants about us asshole PCMR modders who "refuse" to bring mods to consoles. I have been called an asshole because I can't bring a mod that uses third party libraries over to console. It's literally impossible to port this mod to console. I explain this and they come with calling names and posing solutions that I should consider. I've been called a dickweed because I removed a feature from the console version of another mod. It caused lag on a monster pc, it would kill a console. Yet this was a bad decision on my part.

I've been threatened because "I paid for the damn game, I have the right to use that mod!"

There has even been a poll on bethesda.net posted by console players that modders who refuse to release for console should be permabanned.

Wow. Just wow.

I play on both console and PC, and this is exactly why I don't play MP much on console. I've started dabbling in modding recently, but crap like this makes me think twice.

Unfortunately, this is still an experiment and from a marketing standpoint, it seems like Bethesda did not do a good job making it loud and crystal clear that not all mods are going to work on conoles, and if they do, they might might not work as well as they do on the PC. Not only that, they didn't make it clear as well as they should have that mods are created by fans and players...Bethesda has nothing to do with their creation.

Stupid behavior is going to kill this experiment fast.

AdonisBatheus · 33分前

Console players always tend to be younger because consoles are cheaper than PCs so it's easier to convince parents to get them. This isn't saying that all console players are young whiny kids, but this means you're more likely to experience these toxic, entitled children/teenagers.

Not sure what to say, but I hope you keep modding and that this dies down soon.

Every time someone say PBMR I smile. Damn right PC gaming is the master of all gaming. We have better everything in every category plus the majority of us have class. I have never heard my PC gaming friends talk down about console players, but I have heard every one of my console friend talk down about PC gamers. Now I know that this is not a 100% accurate representation of either PC or console gamers as a whole, but history has shown me that it is close.

Mods coming to console is cool and these people that are being grade A ass-hats will destroy it before it even starts. The PC mod community is very good at cleansing the ranks. If this entitled console owner mentality keeps up then I foresee PC mod creators purposely shutting consoles out.

Like I said, not all this is 100%, there are always exceptions to everything, but one this that is 100% is that no one is entitled to @#$!

I truly hope that the majority of console players realize that mod are there because we all want to share what we already have had. but you cannot not expect to have everything. Some mods just will not work on console and some mod creators will want to keep their work PC pure.

But this is all just my opinion.

Console gamers tend to be significantly younger than PC gamers, so these things are bound to happen. Many of these people are probably just excited teenagers, and you can probably imagine how terrible teenagers can be (think Call of Duty voice chat on Xbox). Try to ignore them.

The_mango55 · 3時間前

Totally agree with this.

I'd also like to add that PC players are no more entitled to mods than console players. Modders do this for fun and then release the mods to the systems they want to release them to.

Someone could create the greatest mod of all time and release it only for Xbox and it would be entirely fair.

Now certain modders refuse to release their mods to consoles based on some idiotic principals of superiority, and that's a shitty thing to do, but it's still well within their rights.

Damn... That sense of entitlement really pisses me off. I'm not a modder (though I'm planning on trying it out for Fo4 - I got some ideas for power armor I want to try), but I really appreciate all the work you folks do.

I see this kind of whiny self-entitled bull all over the internet. For example, people will badger webcomic artists about how quickly they release things, or the perceived quality, or whatever. How about, don't complain about things you don't have to pay for? How freakin' hard is that?

Luciphear · 2時間前

There will always be people who will act childish and spoiled, unfortunately all we can do is ignore them. I will support console modding and in the future ship my mods to console as well but not because of spoiled brats but because I want as many people as possible to enjoy my mods that are compatible with consoles.

I don't respond, or at all actually, to whining. It's better to move on and ignore it. It's as you say, a hobby. We don't get paid for it - even more reason not to listen to the negativity. (There's really nothing they can do besides whine anyway, and it will happen.)

That said - I do approve of this thread. While I don't think this will actually affect any of the people who whine and compain it's worth putting up there.

I understand (as well as many console players) that some mods just won't work for consoles as they do on PC. I am very greatful for Bethesda's choice in porting mods to consoles, and I also love that the PC modders are so down with bringing their ideas to life on all platforms. I wouldn't be so quick to deem every and all console player as some spoiled brat , because a lot of us out there totally understand, and appreciate the work done by the modders, and Bethesda to bring mods to consoles.

Those aren't console owners or even gamers, those are a sub-category which PC gamers call peasants. The millennial "me first" generation just makes it worse.

They are a minority, even though it may not seem like it, because they are vocal as all hell. These are the same people that believe you cannot see more than 30 fps and that it is OK to pay $400 for system that cannot handle 1080p @ 30 fps, and has to dynamically adjust resolution. It's more "cinematic". It is OK to buy a $400 system if it's just your preferred way, no need for falsehoods. They are just loud, annoying and entitled. Their ignorance and flat out defiance of education makes them even more disturbing to work with. Welcome to the new world, 140 characters or less.

Honestly it's Nexus's fault.

What they should of had done is to implement a point system that indicates a demand by console players. The more points the more demand there is for a mod.

They should also implement a comment filer that helps eliminates the spam. I would go further and ban accounts after they've been reported for spamming too many times.

There could also be information made available as to what mods will and won't come and why

Personal insults are never acceptable but neither is labelling groups of people based on the actions of a few
