Danny of Gamespot witnessed Fallout 4 behind closed doors and gives us new details on its large scale battles, improved interface, enhanced shooting mechanics and much more:

I think it will be a sandbox Action Shooter with some RPG elements like Farcry 4.
I never really used VATS so this is a welcomed change for me.
But that was half the fun. Did you try to make the game more difficult or something?
Yep - I play real Shooters on the hardest difficulty level - so Fallout 3 was way too easy for me (in the unmodded version).
One of the reasons why F3 and beyond are hated by manyI just thought Fallout was always about survival in an empty and dangerous wasteland and that you should always have had much less ammo and guns to shoot easily anyone get in the way, since as long as I can recall in Fallout 1/2, it was too hard to me to kill even a simple DeathClaw and still keeping my resources for next battles. I should say that's why I'd never imagine a Fallout game going to have "Bigger Battles"…
I'm not going to prejudge the game, just seems a little weird to me.
Sorry if this is a silly question, but I haven't been following Fallout 4 that closely:
Have they talked about some kind of hardcore mode like in New Vegas with eat, drink and sleep requirements? I haven't played NV so I don't know how it functions there, but I like how it functions in FWE and iNeed for Skyrim (accompanied by Frostfall and Hunterborn it was simply amazing). For contrast, I didn't like how it worked in a similar mod for Oblivion whose name I can't remember. That mod penalized you gradually for not satisfying your needs and gave you little to no bonuses only if your needs were fully satisfied, which might be more realistic but for me not that fun.
Not sure they have mentioned any modes that might chase away console players
Anyway, seeing they didn't implement such thing in Skyrim,
In all likelihood, vanilla will come with a similar mode. The form should be different though as settling the base will come into play, along with NPC settlers (probably subjects to a form of survival themselves) and raiders.I think there's a slim chance of it being implemented in Fallout 4 (even though Fallout series is more survival oriented TES series). I guess I'll have to wait for mods for that one.
