Fallout 4 PS4 & Xbox One Release: 10 Things We Want

Combat and V.A.T.S.

Combat and V.A.T.S.

The Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System or V.A.T.S. is the queuing system that allowed you to commit combat actions to specific enemies. The turn-based system wasn't perfect but it still helped set the game apart from the Elder Scrolls series.

And that's precisely what I want from Fallout 4's combat. Something that's different than just your standard first person real-time combat. Maybe that's an upgraded version of V.A.T.S. (I've had visions of an RPG style top down camera once it's activated) or maybe that's something else entirely. 

This is a huge game and one that has mass appeal so I'm not expecting Bethesda to offer something extremely complicated that intimidates causal gamers. A Skyrim clone wouldn't be the worst thing but it'd be great if Fallout 4 offered something different, even if that something different is similar to the previous games.
