Future Looking Bright for Fallout 76 and Its Legions of Players

Only further encourages developers to release games broken and fix it later so whatevs.

I dont care what add ons they do. This game felt repetitive and stale after awhile. Pretty much par for the course with a live service game.

I really like fallout 76 Appalachia is a great map to explore probably one of their best. I just played the whole game solo completing main and side quests and exploring

releasing broken and not being just single player got it a bad reputation that it will never shift and people just dismiss it. but i just play it single player like i would any fallout game and exploring the world is great

better than fallout 4 in my opinion

May give this another go after Christmas. What’s the monthly subscription for? I assume you don’t need it?

The only game worse than any major Bethesda game is this one
Crap sells
Depressive as always
And something good like lou multiplayer gets cancelled because not sustainable financially

Glad it's finally getting a new area to explore and not an expedition. The pitt was boring but the Atlantic one is actually pretty nice.

@Nightcrawler71 Nah, you can ignore it. Only worth it if you want to hoard everything in the game or end of season to unlock a bit of extra camp items.

any ps5 improvements? like 60fps?

@trev666 I've played FO3, New Vegas and FO4... Never interested in online games, I've read there's kind of a single player campaign in 76? How the whole experience compares to the previous entries?

76 is hugely improved since launch and deserved to be mentioned in the same breath asno man's sky and cyberpunk when it comes to a redemption arc.

I am not a big 76 player, or any multiplayer title really. But credit where credit is due, they have done a really good job fixing and improving the game and its turned into a pretty popular game

I've enjoyed 76 ever since the wastelanders update (and abit before). It's also a nice chill game to play at this point along with a Great community and you can pretty much play it solo.
Servers are pretty solid as well and the building is fun.

I'm one of those visitors, for like 10 minutes of boredom.

I absolutely love fallout but I'm not touching it. Live service games are poison.

ESO is better, fallout 76 just seems to be full of bullet sponge enemies and forces you to use one specific weapon type so say if you want to use energy weapons well you better get good rng with the perk cards or you're out of luck... I have a max rating legendary alien blaster that barely does any damage to super mutants.

Pretty much a game in which you can't use the majority of the stuff you loot, never had this issue with any other fallout game or any elder scrolls game including eso a game which is built upon having a specific playstyle yet still allows you to complete story pve content doing whatever you want. Fallout 76 enemies are the most spongy in any game i have ever played and that's using weapons which my perk deck is built around, it makes division 1 enemies look like call of duty 4 one shot kill enemies.

I need to get back into this. I kind of fell off when I found the overseer in the first town I went to, just at random and then just lost a whole load of quests due to that. I will go back to it as I love Fallout and think they have brought this back from what it started as.

@MattSilverado Im not interested in online games either. I loved FO3, New Vegas, fallout 4 not as much. this absolutely has a main campaign that i did single player a well as many other main missions that I did single player and many side missions i did single player.

Ive played it all single player like you would any other fallout game. the only difference is you can do it multiplayer as well if you wish.

Ive enjoyed it more than fallout 4 much better map to explore no constant shootouts with settlement in trouble rubbish. i only built the stuff i needed to for the quests

Nah I’m good. Cant really fix trash

@zebric21 Being 30fps on ps5 was one of the main reasons why I stepped back from the game.
But finally the game is 60fps. I don't think the visuals have improved though

@trev666 thanks for your feedback! Better or at least on par with FO4 is good enough for me then 😅... I might even try some online stuff as well.

@MattSilverado its got a bad reputation and the multiplayer rep that made me dismiss it at launch, gave it ago when it was cheap

Its a fallout game, I like fallout, I like fallout 76

I loved this game from launch. Just you and an open Wasteland. Working out what had happened when the first people left the vaults. It's absolutely packed with NPCs now. Just a completely different game.

I gave this a go earlier this year and had fun. The world is fun to explore and there are plenty of those personal tales scattered about on audio logs which make Fallout great.

@RawnDawn good to know, thanks 👍

What an utterly pointless article..

I think it's a great game now, just can't find the time required for these ongoing games. It is a legitimate Fallout experience.

I would definitely put it on the no man's sky, Cyberpunk list of successful turnarounds.
