Fallout 76 Community Reacts Very Positively to Wastelanders Update

NPC's in a Fallout game! What madness is this?

It’s looking positive at least for Bethesda, they’ve been sorely missing any decent feedback for a while. The game itself still doesn’t appeal to me but they probably should have just tried to make it a Fallout-flavoured ESO from the beginning.

So it's now months later the game it should of been at launch?

Can't see many people changing their minds about this game or bethesda. Basically destroyed what faith people had in them with one game

I still don't get why people have any faith in Bethesda, but I am surprised they even tried to fix one of their games. They've been re releasing Skyrim with more game breaking bugs than visible stars without trying to fix any of them

I thankfully only paid $5 for FO76 so I'll probably download it one more time to see how its looking almost a year later.

I’ll wait for what jim sterling has to say. He said he was planning on revisiting it when the update would come around and depending on how it goes to make a jimquisition or jimpressions on it which could either be positive or negative depending on how good the update would be.

Anyone still in that community has got to be a bit desperate though.

its a 60gb download so i will gladly skip it.

@grahamd Well said but another settlement needs your help here I’ll mark it on your map

Call me cynical but I can't help thinking that this praise may be from the people who have been playing it all along anyway. I'm trying to be optimistic that it really will improve the game but until I log in myself, I won't get my hopes up.

As it is though, I have too much to be getting on with at the moment. I'll try it when my backlog starts thinning.

Anyone know if it still costs £100 a year to access private servers?

@suikoden Actually it's been a year and half. I've never even played the game to be honest, and I have no intention to. FO4 was enough of a letdown for me.

Might install this again and try it. Picked it up for $9 thinking it might be playable some day. How long has it been?

@Preston-Garvey @grahamd Are you seriously defending this trainwreck of a release? I have no feelings towards Bethesda the only 2 games i ever played from their hands where utter garbage. Skyrim is the only game i ever seen released on the PS3 in such a garbage state and after how many rereleases on different platforms they still did not manage to get rid of all the bugs. Fallout 76 was so broken and bareboned it was a joke and instead of fixing the they started monetization first. I would even go as far that this game should have released a year later.

Lets be even more blunt it should have been a €10 early access game.

I have Fallout 3 GOTY on steam. Tried to play the game 3 times. All 3 tomes I got bored after a while. Not sure what it is. Also have New Vegas on Ps3 which I've never touched and an unopened GOTY edition of Fallout 4 for ps4. Have no intention of touching this, especially because of all the fiasco and garbage surrounding it.

@grahamd Even a MMO needs a QA which they probably missed at Bethesda. The game was a joke and way overpriced for what they offered. Any other company would have been crucified for such a terrible job. If you payed €60 i would see it as a ripoff and how could call this a MMO at the start there was almost nothing. And the free update is nonsense a lot of people payed €60 for a joke without any QA testing probably.
