mods

Bruh the mods that people are gonna make for this game will be so down bad....can't wait tho

[Moga CMDR]

There are certainly live service games that people mod and hook into, particularly for visual stuff. Who knows what happens here, but I doubt I'd bother myself.

Even modding SP, offline games can be annoying when patches hit. And the cast looks decent enough as is.

[Dovah]

They're trying to sell you visuals, I don't imagine they will take kindly to visual mods that compete with their microtransaction. But, I hope I'm wrong.

[Crave]

its unreal engine 5, there will be mods if game remains popular enough, there is nothing they can do about it

[PuRe LEG4CY]

Outriders finally allowed at least a Mod table provided you follow a few rules first

[Random]

Even live service games like a gacha called Snowbreak can be modded without any issues. You can make all the female characters naked or even have different bust sizes to your liking. The same will happen with The First Descendant, mods that don't affect actual gameplay but that only affect the local side like visuals that only you can see but others can't. The main reason people are playing this game in the first place is because of the hot female characters followed by some ok gameplay.

This game unlike most has not just one Anti-cheat. It has two. I doubt they will allow mods and if you mod the game enjoy your ban.

hillarious.
Even Final Fantasy Xi (release 2002), originally a PS2 game, had mods despite never having mod support. As long as the mod didn't turn into cheating or hacking, even the normally pretty strict japanese Dev didn't care enough to hunt.

World of Warcraft has had mods for ~20 consecutive years ranging from visual changes to full UI conversions, adding UI elements showing otherwise hidden values (Mob HP, Threat, ...) and so on. In those 2 decades Bliz only went on a witch hunt against straight up hacks/cheats.

Even other games like Genshin Impact where modding of any kind is explicitly forbidden by ToS does have a "rich" (in every meaning of the word) selection of mods and the dev/publisher isn't exactly actively hunting modders..as long as you don't overstep the wrong boundary even they just ignore it.

Nowadays every popular game is nearly guaranteed to get mods, whether the dev allows it or not. And even asian dev's have started giving up on brutally enforcing their "no-mod" policies.

mods for a live service game, i have yet to see that.

Does Genshin and Honkai Star rail fit what you're describing? Those games have had a mod scene for some time, however it uses software that strictly doesn't affect game files and is purely visual

[Asdf]

Yeah having mods would be nice.
I really dislike most of those helmets on unlti charas.

You definitely haven't played many games then bc there are tons of live service games with mods lol look at genshin impact as the most prominent

It's not forbidden at all in fact you could say it's implicitly allowed. Look up their article "response to scripts, plugins, third party software" and you'll see they explicitly say nothing that affects game progress. They know what mods are available and the response was partly after people got paranoid about using reshade, so intentionally omitting mention of skin and graphics mods is all but saying it's okay. You'll find an almost word for word policy from riot on league of legends which even after getting vanguard has the biggest 18+ skin scene of any game probably

[Pixelica]

You can't mod the game, they will automatically recheck modified file every time you launch the game. It has EAC and BlackChiper anti cheat. Doesn't matter if the dev allowed mod or not, that 2 anti cheat softwares will automatically detect mods as threat. Unless the dev release a modding tool, do it at your own risk.

Mod also can compete with their paid cosmetic products, so I doubt they will allow modding in this game.

[SavageTiger]

It's true that probably we won't get mods for this game to work, unless they abandon it don't care anymore or we get the option for private servers.

But if anyone cares, nobody mentioned the other way around, so take a look at this.

There's mods for Fallout 76. It's not unheard of but anti-cheats usually prevents them from happening at all which Fallout 76 doesn't have (at least nothing invasive).

Again Life. Service. fallout isnt one of those you can play it offline game data is local.

Holy hell you have no idea what you are talking about. Its LIVE service btw.
