Got the F4 GOTY edition with all DLC that’s on sale. Ready for the update.

I’ve put in some hours of Fallout 76. While I do like the exploring and leveling up/perk card system… other things about the games I don’t like. You’re basically playing in Hardcore mode from other Fallout games. You have to worry about your thirst and hunger, ammo carries weight, and you can’t pause with the VATS system during combat. Plus it costs you caps to fast travel to some places.

Uninstalled F76 and went ahead started a new F4 play through. Wanted to go ahead and do early game stuff before the new update hits and I get into the DLC. Already put in 7 hrs, love this game!

I’ve never played any. Seen cool breakdowns of certain stories/quest, honestly the only one I refer now is the one about the guy stuck in a tree and there’s like the or four outcomes for the guy.

Kinda tempted in getting it but don’t when I’ll play it, cos backlog

That quest was in Fallout 3 I remember that one.

I’m already at almost 15 hours on my new play through. I haven’t even made it to Diamond City yet. Explored the Northwest first, helped Preston, got my settlement going in Sanctuary, and now I’ve been making my way down the railroad tracks towards the middle of the map exploring as I go. All I want to play right now I’m hooked again.

With the success of the TV show and the increase in Fallout being played I really do hope Microsoft and Todd are talking about spinning up a Fallout dedicated studio. Missed opportunity not to have a game in the horizon with the popularity the TV show has.

The next fallout installment probably isn't going to be seen until towards the end of next gen at this rate.
 
I forgot I had created a second character based on the below build. He uses power armor with filters that reduce chem addiction so he can constantly use Jet in combat to go into slow motion and blast fools with a shotgun. The diverse types of builds you can make in this and Skyrim still blow me away.

Never even thought of a build like that. Good stuff.

Yeah I got the goty edition, started a new game but then jumped back into my older save to mess around in, will probably start the DLC when the update drops.

Imagine thinking the studio behind the IP should consult you before patching a game they allow you to make mods for(unlike many others).



Gotta love the entitled people in gaming that think the world should revolve around them.

I’m already over the 20 hour mark on my new character. I’m not playing with any mods just the DLC. I wonder if this update will force me to have to start a new game, but if I do I have a better idea now which stars my SPECIAL should be at and which skills to go with early.

As usual, IGN making an issue where there is none. Everyone gets a free update when excitement about the game is higher than ever, but let's whine about some free mod that nobody ever heard of. It isn't like they are even shutting down the mod, just updating the modding tools.

Possibly. But then this upgrade pack was announced a long time ago and at the end of the day no studio has to run this stuff by modders.
Mod team need to get over themselves.
