[ Game -> Update ] - More info on <a href="#Bethesda Softworks">Company: Bethesda Softworks</a> | More info on <a href="#Fallout 3">Game: Fallout 3</a>

Gavin "Kathode" Carter was nice enough to <a href="http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index ... try9824041" target="_self">post about some of the positions</a> on the Fallout 3 team on the new Bethesda forums. Here's what he had to say: <blockquote>Hayt is a designer who works under Emil. As for me, the various
production titles here can get confusing, so let me explain. Todd
Howard is the Executive Producer. For all intents and purposes, he is
the studio and project director, and has ultimate say over everything
we do. We have a very open and collaborative atmosphere here, and Todd
is always open to debate and revision, but at the end of the day, to
borrow a phrase from Bush, he is the Ã¢â‚¬Å“deciderÃ¢â‚¬Â� <img border="0" src="http://nma-fallout.com/forum/images/smi ... _smile.gif" alt="Smile" />

Ashley is our studio Production Director. His job is to coordinate all
the production efforts of our internal development across all the
various projects weÃ¢â‚¬â„¢re working on. This includes everything from the
big ticket games, to smaller stuff like Oblivion downloadable content,
localization issues, and making sure other cross-project people (QA for
instance) know and respond to our needs. He manages how we distribute
peopleÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s time across the projects, and also makes sure all projects
conform to good standard methods of scheduling and tracking.

IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m the Lead Producer on Fallout, meaning IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m the main production guy
who is 100% focused solely on this project. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m responsible for
maintaining our overall schedule, setting up and communicating
milestones, making sure everyone has the tools, equipment, and info
they need to do their jobs, and hounding people to get stuff done on
time. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve been on the project since the day we started working on it,
and pretty much the day we went gold on Oblivion, I switched over to
focusing completely on Fallout. IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m aided by an awesome team of four
department producers who focus on either programmers, artists, or
designers. Hope this helps clear it up! <img border="0" src="http://nma-fallout.com/forum/images/smi ... _smile.gif" alt="Smile" />
</blockquote> Cool stuff! Now how about some screenshots?

Who'll design the thongs?

Well, seeming they said they had 4 department producers and only listed 3 departments, I'd say that the 4th has an entire team dedicated to the thongs.

What? Is this for real? Are we really gonna do this? Just to stay on Bethesda's "official links"?

We shouldn't have to conform to Bethesda way, they should conform to us. DAC is all about free speech.

Hear hear. We're bound by christmas island laws, if you can't deal with it, then get the hell out you filthy flower.

But really, if some posts need moderation, send 'em to waste... err, AA. Editing posts is against the code.

The news forum has always meant to be kept clean. Same for all the other forums, actually. If it's not safe for work, don't post it outside the wasteland. Smiley's just doing what the admins asked him to do.

Don't think for a minute... that I don't enjoy it.

What's sad is how the oblivion fans are thanking this dev for posting two paragraphs about nothing. Black Isle they ain't.

Still, he sounds more reasonable when his words aren't taken out of context.

But...ugh...it's going to be real-time, for sure.
