This mod seems like it really understands what Fallout is and should be, at it's core. Just the phrase "long forgotten advertisement" displays perfectly that the developers know what makes Fallout special
God everything about this looks absolutely top tier, everyone should be very proud of the work they've already put in i cant wait to play the full thing. Also Robert Brookes being part of this makes me even more excited
I've worked on several big projects in the past, and watching this one and the gameplay trailer had me saying "wow" every time I saw the vistas, fields, and love put into every aspect of the level design. You guys are doing an excellent job.
I just found out about this mod, and I am 100% amped to play it. You've managed to make an ACTUAL Fallout story, we haven't had one of those in decades! And these environments look gorgeous!
I have waited for an excuse to get back into playing FO4 after several years of abstinence. This is no doubt going to be one of them! Hat's off to the amount of work you're putting into this!
I only just discovered your alton il mod from @ramblelime, and he mentioned this at the end of it. And holy shit im fucking hyped for this, its crazy the sheer level youve come from that previous mod. After watching the first trailer i was worried cause the nexus page and moddb didnt have updates since last year. So glad i checked your channel to see if there was anything new. Im subscribed now and cant wait for the eventual release!
This looks so damn amazing I cant believe youre doing this thank you! And I really hope it doesnt have too much incompatibilities since I have a lot of mods 😂
I cannot wait to see the 14th in game, the visual effects and armor make for such a cool aesthetic. Is the worldspace inspired by the Nashoba areas north of Concord? I love looking at fallout locations and their real life counterparts.
I adore the level design on display in this mod! I really wish I had taken the time to learn to use the creation engine in the past, I would have loved to contribute to this.
I am just hearing about this mod and must say I am thoroughly impressed from this! It looks absolutely incredible and the music is wondeful! Looking forward to seeing the progress and playing it at some point! :)
Is there anyway some assets like the armor can be made standalone mods too? Would love to have some for the commonwealth as i wait for this gem of a mod!
Hey there! First priority will be releasing the cabin assets as a standalone Workshop mod. We're also interested in releasing some of the 14th assets as standalone, glad to hear you're interested in this too. I'll admit I wanted to get going on this standalone work sooner, but got distracted with more pressing ABW work - but I'll try to get to it early this year. :)
Hi Elijah, I love FO4 since I began to play it a few years ago and although I have also FO3 and FNV and above FO76 installed, I didn't install them because I mod me to death and what you and you fellow colleges are developing here is so beautiful that I surely will one of the first players who will dive into that vast adventure that you are about to give us. I really hope that next year I have enough money to build myself a to-noch PC that is capable letting me play this marvelous mod of yours in the biggest possible beauty. My thanks for you work 'till now. I subscribed to your channel and will join you discord as well although I probably can not help you in realizing this masterpiece of a mod.
The update is unfortunately I am hugely forgetful and have been distracted making pretty landscapes for Abbot County instead. :') I will prioritize getting it out soon, as I know folks have been waiting for it! Thank you for the reminder, and apologies for the long wait!
I just learned about this, I am really excited, I don't know if you answer questions but you mention that t hey find themselves hunted by retention synths and a courser. If you finished the game with the Institute, do you get to side with them in this expansion as well? Or is that asking for too much :D
I appreciate the hard work and beauty that is going into this mod however personally I don't see it as being for me simply because I prefer my fallout to have a more decayed aesthetic. I understand some people believe that the world should look more alive and it's arguable they're correct since the bombs fell 200 years ago but for me it was never about the science it's about the art and I already have the elder scrolls for beautiful lush living vistas. I come to the fallout universe for the morose yet gorgeous vistas of devastation and toxicity. For me it is a subtle but potent reminder that the real world we inhabit is fragile that we would do well to be the best stewards of the one home we all share. Please do not let This statement be misconstrued as disapproval, nothing but respect for what this modding team is accomplishing. It's gorgeous, utterly gorgeous. I hope that everyone who tries it has lots of fun with it
If your comparing to 76 sure but the other franchises are a different style of wasteland going for baron and crumbling instead of Last of us over grown like nearly everything is doing now.
@@RedAlpha101 think he is referring to the fact 76 went for the overgrown nature environment style which makes more sense to compare to than to other fallout entries which have a complete different style for environments
It's pretty unlikely we will be able to fit within the filesize limitations presented by consoles, but we will look at our options when the time comes. :)
Do we play as the sole survivor in this mod? Can I go back and forth from this place and the commonwealth in my existing playthrough like far harbor or nuka world? And does it matter whether we've finished the main story in fallout4?
Hey there! You play as the Sole Survivor. You can travel freely between the Commonwealth, Vault-Tec Plaza, and Abbot County. Completing the main story is not necessary, but your decisions in the MQ will have effects on dialogue and certain quest steps in A Better World.
@@ElijahHouck Thanks. Would I be able to start the mod straight after coming out of vault 111 in a new playthrough or is there a level requirement or an MQ milestone I have to hit first before the mod starts? And does all of the mod's content take place in the new worldspace or is there stuff in the commonwealth too?
@@ph0759 This is still something we're thinking about, but probably there will be a level requirement, but it will be relatively low. Almost all of the mod content takes place in Abbot County, but there will be a couple of small moments that take you back to the Commonwealth.
this is so hyyyype but im asking myself how the next gen update to fallout 4 will work with new mods. Do u guys keep that in mind while developing this insane mod, or do u think it will not matter to how mods work?
Unfortunately there’s so few details about the next gen update there’s no good answer to this. Hopefully the update is fairly simple, and won’t require a bunch of work to ensure mods are still compatible, but we probably won’t really know until the update is actually released.
@@HattaTHEZulZILLA86 Oof, that's some old hardware, though depending on which gen your processor is, a GPU upgrade might work well for you. My older setup is an AMD FX3850 + RX580. In what we considered out more FPS intensive areas, was able to achieve around 40fps at 1440p High/Ultra settings. And this is before we have done any optimization, so ultimately would probably be able to squeeze some more FPS out of that. I assume you are playing on lower settings, but a good way to gauge is if you can get around downtown Boston just fine with your current setup/settings, you shouldn't have any problems in ABW.
@@jhardindrums My priorities is NOT on teh purdy graphics but STABILITY and LESS CRASHING. Which is why I sometimes use the environmental graphics DOWNGRADE mod. Traversing downtown Boston with that mod activated made me feel like I'm playing an entirely new game.
Not rude at all, totally valid question! We're a very small team, and I really try to put a _ton_ of care into these videos, to really showcase our work in the best possible way. However, that also means that these videos take me ages to produce (usually around three/four weeks of planning, recording both video and voice, polish, and editing), and that takes a lot of time away from our standard ABW development pipeline. So, I try to space them out a bit further to help keep development moving steadily, and also so you guys get a big significant update, rather than smaller updates along the way. :)
Please tell me this is still being worked on after this Starfield (over) hyped train, I’ll stick to fallout 4 until they add more alien species (intelligent ones), proper settlement system (not just a tent or a small outpost on a deserted planet) and real space navigation to Starfield
Love the game size mod and the effort put in to this, only gripe is all the green and foliage, seen a lot of games that have designs and wastelands with different styles like fallouts wasteland of baron lands or Call of duty Black ops 2 Tranzit with the smokey Ash air and larva with a planet ripped apart. fallout has some areas like 76 with reason. Cod BO3 is getting a tranzit mod with the overgrown look and It seems most mods now just make everything overgrown because the last of us game looked nice. I like the look but not in everything even with mods or games being their own thing, when you see it a thousand times then it gets boring and bland to look at, always down to see people try coming up with different ways to looks, something we haven't seen before. Good mod keep it up though.

Looks great and I'm excited to see more later this year.
Bruh this is so good that this might as well be a new game. 🤯

Thanks so much! Ramblelime's analysis of Alton was great, and I agreed with a lot of it. Glad that the 12 years of learning since then shows. :)
@ElijahHouck it really does show. Like I said I cannot wait for this mod, I honestly think it looks like the best "dlc sized" mod I've seen for fo4
This really looks amazing so far. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
Ow wow, the environment design is so incredible!
Can’t fucking wait!! Thank you all for the amazing work and effort. Everything is looking stellar so far!
I can't wait for the cabin set and props to come out !
Good Lord ! Just wow
Amazing work guys !
Just heard about this via youtube and I’m already impressed, Outstanding work!
AWEsome work everyone.
It looks amazing guys, I cannot wait to play it!
Everything looks already so good already, I cannot wait to see it finished.

Just found out about this mod, and I have to say the environment and 3d art look absolutely gorgeous.
It’s incredible how modders like you and KingGath (Sim Settlements 2) are keeping this game alive
Much much better than the vanilla questlines 😊
Sometimes I forget how beautiful video games can be. This has genuinely brought tears to my eyes. Godspeed team!
I adore the level design on display in this mod! I really wish I had taken the time to learn to use the creation engine in the past, I would have loved to contribute to this.

Looks awesome.
I found your cabins and such a while back (I really like them), I dint know about the larger project. Looks really good!!
So awesome
Beautiful environment.
Don’t forget to add lots of settlements
No doubt one of the most promising Fallout 4 expansion projects, it's clear that there's a strong vision behind it
It cause we all wear glasses 🤓
Looks amazing!

Thanks Peter, I'm so happy our mod has connected with you! Look forward to a new dev update + landscape showcase video, coming next month.
Will this new story quest mod have some new companions / followers too?
Any update on the release of the cabin set that was scheduled to release last summer?
The update is unfortunately I am hugely forgetful and have been distracted making pretty landscapes for Abbot County instead. :')

GYATDAYUM THIS SHIT LOOKS FUCKING FIRE DAWG!
I’m very excitement
This looks…FANTASTIC
I hope there's some cosmic shit in this. A story where some (former)institute ppl find something like that and start fucking with it would be cool.
What State does this mod take place in because the only State with an Abbot County is Maine so I'm assuming this takes place in Maine.
the environment looks so much better than what bethesda created

This looks very very promising
Amazing. Too bad we will never get to play it.
Is that so?
Can't wait
Playing some fallout 4 while watching this
Will this eventually be ported to console the worldspace looks phenomenal and theres nothing else like it
It's pretty unlikely we will be able to fit within the filesize limitations presented by consoles, but we will look at our options when the time comes. :)
@ElijahHouck that's understandable I'll be keeping an eye on the progress of the mod just in case best of luck 👍
It's beautiful. I wish i could play it.
