sajuukkhar9000 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 considering bethesda is realising the CK and allowing us to contiue to post mods on sites such a the Nexus there will still be mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MofoMojo Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) This is all speculation and rumormongering. Speculation will get everyone nowhere fast. Additionally, this has been discussed, ad naseum in other threads. Go look at those threads for proof of getting nowhere fast. No one will agree to anything, and there's really no point in discussing it until the CK is either a) released or b) Bethesda comes out and says they aren't releasing it. I'm not even going to get into the reasons why I don't think b) will happen. Once it's released, and everyone can make and objective oppinion based on facts, rather than heresay, rumors, and oppinions based on conjecture and harsh feelings for having to "deal" with the delay, then great. Until then.... Edited January 19, 2012 by MofoMojo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even going to get into the reasons why I don't think b) will happen. Because there's no need.Honestly, it's ridiculous that some people suspect that it wont be released at all. ... Just because they were hoping it would be out on the 1st, and it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perraine Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 And more to the point there has already been about 20 threads which have talked this subject to death ... LET IT GO, FFS! The game hasn't even been out for that long! <sheesh> It'll happen when it happens or it won't, at which point we'll just have to find another way. I have far more faith in the talent of the various contributors to The Nexus than I have in BGS ... If they create it someone will crack it ... "Nuff Said!

Matth85 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Everything about steam, this happens once with TW games and could happen here to,I know that DLCs and mods aren't incompatible but... Keyword being "could", which translates to "I am paranoid and think this will happen!".Really, we got no facts. Stop spelling out doomsday out of thin air. Wait it out, then you can complain. For now, we not nothing, we pay nothing and life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Creative Assembly bet on DLC and don't provide any mod tool or documentation to help" - You have proof that because it's on Steam, that they didn't provide modding or documentation to mod? Sounds like they made the wrong bet. Fallout 3, Fallout: NewVegas are both on Steam, both by Bethesda, and both have TREMENDOUS mod support. Oblivion, which is also on steam now, still supports just about every mod ever released as far as I know. /me goes to log into steam and check out my games list... Counter Strike - ModdableCounter Strike: Source - ModdableDay of Defeat: - ModdableDay of Defeat: Source - ModdableDead Island - Moddable even though I don't think there are tools specifically released by the developerFar Cry - ModdableFar Cry 2 - I think it's moddable but never got into itFrozen Synapse - ModdableHalf Life - ModdableHalf Life 2 - ModdableGary's Mod - Moddable, and not required to MOD Half Life even though valve makes money selling this "Mod tool"Left 4 Dead - ModdableLeft 4 Dead 2 - ModdableS.T.A.L.K.E.R. : Shadow of Chernobyl - ModdableTorchlight - ModdableThe Sims - ModdableTrackMania - ModdableUnreal Tournament 3: Black Edition - ModdableX3: Albion Prelude - ModdableX3: Terran Conflict - Moddable Same of these games are directly BY valve, who places a high value on modding in the community, some of these are from other companies using Steam for distribution which support modding, built either in the game or external editors, and some of them aren't supported by the developer with toolsets but allow a great bit of flexibility and were designed with modding in mind. A quick glance of my TOOLS available to install shows even some I left out of the list: GECK - New Vegas Edition (mod tool)King's Bounty: Crossworlds EditorLeft 4 Dead 2 Authoring ToolsLeft 4 Dead Authoring ToolsPortal 2 Authoring ToolsSource SDKSixense SDK for the Razer HydraTorchlight Editor What part of psychosis is kicking in that people think Steam + GAME = Conspiracy to stop modding. If I had mods that I SLAVED on for months on end that I could put up on Steam and charge, I'd CONSIDER it. There are certainly reasons NOT to do it. If you want a good story of MOD to RICHES just go check up on what Valve did for the guys that took Halflife (A valve game) and made Counterstrike...the MOD.

SoberBarn Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Actually SOPA/PIPA will be the death of mods. This affects us all, American or not. Let your voice be heard here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gengrimm Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Fallout New Vegus wasn't impeded by Steam, nor has the multitude of Half-life/HL2 mods. I don't think there is too much to be worried about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
