But there will inevitably be some type of 'Ultimate build guide' demanding players never exceed 8 or 9 in SPECIAL and then telling them to skip ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ everything and go to a shack on the other edge of the map for a book that increases a stat by 5% before your first level. That way I am able to pass any possible speech checks that rely on SPECIAL attributes early in the game. I've been toying with the idea of distributing all points to upgrade SPECIALS to their max before distributing anything into perks. Therefore, 4 points distributed into SPECIAL and 8 in Perks for a total of 12 points distributed. The level 14 character in the video has 32 SPECIAL points distributed and 8 perk points distributed (2 in Gun Nut). You also start at level 1 with a total of 28 points across all SPECIAL attributes. The character is level 14, and has not distributed their point for level 14 yet. While he never actually states, word for word, that there will be one every level, all you need is some basic math when looking at the level of the character in the demo, the number of distributed SPECIAL points and the number of distributed perk points.

The actual quote from Bethesda's Video says that you'll be able to choose them when you level up. You have an officially info thats confirm that? in the video released yesterday, Todd Howard talks about the character leveling and says you get one perk every level.
