    Started playing this a few weeks ago so I missed a lot of the bugs and things people were complaining about, but even now they are still working on it. A 3GB update was applied just a few days ago. No rules PVP server being added beginning of March which sounds like a blast. Gonna be a nervous wreck but it sounds fun. Announced there's going to be more additions like raids to the game too.Started playing this a few weeks ago so I missed a lot of the bugs and things people were complaining about, but even now they are still working on it.

    The game IS Fallout. If you like Fallout you'll like this.. There's plenty of things to do in the game. It's practically identical to Fallout 4 and uses a lot of the same assets. Every 2-4 weeks they've been adding GBs of content and updates too. I am very happy with the money I spent on this. I find it hard to believe there's so many zero ratings. I think a lot of these people haven't even tried the game yet and are just being tools riding the rage train.

    Anyways bout the game. It's Fallout.. It's fallout, it's fallout... You either like Fallout or you hate it.

    Graphics are great but if you really want to customize them you need to find the ini file and edit the settings there. Game uses a lot of the assets from Fallout 4 so you'll see a lot of familiar things.
    It is a resource hog so with a decent rig you're gonna struggle with framerate. (get used to tweaking)

    Sound is good but could use some better 3D positioning. The vertical position is a lil off and obstructions don't alter the sound as it should. Like if I hear you shoot a gun on the other side of a house it will sound no differ if I remove that house.

    Gameplay is typical Fallout 3,4. It really doesn't feel much differ accept vats is in real time so you have to be quick if your build focuses on using it. Lot of guns, melee weps, explosives to choose. Typical first/thirdperson shooter with melee. Almost feels like Dying Light but without the parkour. Instead you have mech suits with jetpacks and mutations that make your run faster or jump higher.
    PVP is meh.. Because if you attack someone they only take like 5% damage UNLESS they fight back and THEN they take full damage from your attacks. SO that leaves out the stealthy sneaky builds to initiate a fight, but that's why in March they are going to release a unrestricted PVP server and THAT is in my opinion when everyone should pick up the game. It's be much more exiting knowing anyone can wack you at any moment and take your stuff (just junk, not your gear). There's also a public base mechanic where you take over a base already in the world in order to get certain loot over time as you control it. Other players can contest that base and try to steal it and you have to fight them off. You are however able to build turrets and other defenses to protect it from them and waves of occasional monsters.
    Perk system, stat distribution, and mutations are extensive. I highly recommend looking into an online planner to plan your character's build. There's just thousands of ways you can build your character. It's practically unlimited depending on your combo of gear, mutations, perks, whether or not you use Power Armor and/or what type of legendary effects you have on your normal armor...

    Content isn't bad. There's a few dozen differ enemies. A month in and I still haven't seen everything. Granted I've just been grinding away instead of doing the story or side missions. Which I only just started working on. Weapons can be upgraded like barrel, stock, receiver, magazine/clip, scope, etc plus you can find legendary versions with mutators like making the ammo explosive. Kinda like Borderlands. Can build your own base then pack it up and deploy it where ever you want. The world itself is pretty big. Definitely bigger than fallout 4. Quests aren't bad either and a lot of them will kinda force people together whether to kill each other or work together.

    I enjoyed Fallout 4 and I pretty much got what I expected from Fallout 76. I'm not a huge story guy so lacking NPCs really didn't do much for me as I usually skip the dialog and just hurry back to the fighting anyways. There are NPCs but they are just voices over a radio that give you missions, robots that sell stuff, or this one traveling super mutant merchant and his pet cow.
    It has some quarks but from what I see Bethesda has and is making an honest attempt at correcting things as they come up. So far it looks like every month they release patches and updates and quite big ones too.
    I can definitely see where people are coming from at release though. The game did have a lot of game breaking crap wrong with it. I guess I'm just lucky I started after most of that got fixed. Just a bummer that I'm stuck playing legit with a bunch of people that exploited the game, BUT when the pure PVP server comes out everyone will have to start over so I'm really looking forward to that.    … Expand

    Spent more than 100 hours in this game.
    Reached Level 250 with two chars.

    This game is a scam. Seriously
    Glitches and Bugs aside this game is nothing than trying to get as much money from players as possible.
    If you dont know how the game is by now just search review on youtube.
    This game is utterly broken and lives from microtransactions!

It takes the better part of a whole day, messing about with updates- and updates are at least twice a month. You expect people to buy content (which should be free with the game, as far as I'm concerned, as the game is far from cheap in comparison to the cost of materials). You have dissapointed everyone who has bought this abortive attempt at escapism. You should be ashamed of yourselve for this mess! I will never buy anything from Bethesda ever again. I want my money back! I am so annoyed with you, for my partner having to just sit around waiting for you guys to pull your socks up. This will ruin you guys - and I wouldn't be surprised if you started getting law suits against you. This game is garbage - do yourselves a favour..... do not buy!… Expand

    How you rate this game will very much depend on how you approach it, or what you want from it...

    If you want a deep mix of multiplayer, PvP and story telling...well you are s..t outta luck. Approaching from that standpoint, this game is going to hurt your feelings. On the other hand. If you approach it looking for a single-player, tried and tested shooter, simple survival game, then    How you rate this game will very much depend on how you approach it, or what you want from it...

    On the other hand. If you approach it looking for a single-player, tried and tested shooter, simple survival game, then you might just enjoy this game.

    The problem here, is that Bethesda decided to use us as free testers to see if they could do multiplayer. It turns out they can't, and we paid the price.
    They decided to jump on the cynical cash cow that is micro-transactions and loot, like so many other scummy game companies out there today. And like the other game games companies they have come to the harsh understanding that we won't swallow their BS anymore (see Anthem as an example of public revolt against shallow online garbage).

    Yes, Bethesda played VERY dirty (no refunds, changing pre-order conditions, getting greedy etc.) And yes, this game isn't really a multiplayer game, but if you want a sort of lonelier Fallout 4.5, then it's actually quite fun to explore, read lore, blow stuff up (assuming Beth don't nerf your guns, mid-play).

    All the zero scores are a bit harsh, but I can understand why, given Beth's treatment of their fan base. Personally I've enjoyed it as a single-player game, but nothing more. It's worth a shot if you can get it cheap, and it seems maybe Bethesda have learned a hard lesson and cleaned up their act a bit.    … Expand

The recent announcement of Repair kits in ATOM store only had me login just to update my comments and drop my score. Most items I've calling out below are still true. I'm a long time fan of the Fallout series and was excited to see this new online version hit the streets. Watched all the videos and learned all the "Before B.E.T.A." details I could fine. I broke down and created a Metacritic account for the first time just to provide feedback as a LOT of folks are stating this game is getting negative bombed. Well - it sort of deserves some of the negative feedback based on it's $60 for a "New" game, but we got sort of the same things we had in Fallout 4 + DLC.

    I'm not giving this a high score as I feel like it's still in BETA and should have seen BETA 2 months ago to course correct all the major items they are now starting to address as targets to be completed this year.

    My major issues with the game include the following:

    1. Stash Capacity has to be my #1 issue with this game. For a game that requires you to constantly Eat, Drink, Heal, Upgrade Gear and fix your gear you would think an unlimited Stash would have been default.

    2. BUGS - lots of baddies getting head stretched out and/or can't see them. Gun shots going off and nobody is nearby. Hammering noise from certain direction of map (No matter where I go on Map).

    3. Base CAMP has major issues with blueprint storage, duplicate issues, over capacity, etc. When I'm over budget and delete several items and still can't even put a bed down - it's a big problem.

    4. Voice active by default and no Push to Talk (Coming soon), but this was mind blowing to me.

    5. Costs of repairing is not in line with the realistic number of items you find. Same is true with Vendors and CAPS not being realistically available. (I buy 200 caps of items then they have 200 more caps I can sell stuff against)

    6. Server Disconnects really punish the player in this game. If you are in the middle of a quest you come back into another server and no accomplishments. If you happen to just capture, repair and upgrade a massive resource node and Disconnect (You are going to hate this game then). I've spent time collecting materials to build out a resource base only to have a disconnect lose everything.

    7. This game - looks like Fallout 4 with updated mechanics for Events and Online play. The engine and most of the textures seem near identical to our FO4 games.

    8. Can't play with my XBOX friends (I'm on a PC) and we have tried multiple tricks and even a couple forum post tricks with no luck (maybe it's broken or maybe it's just never going to happen). Playing cross PC/Xbox with friends is about the only "Cool" thing with this right now and it's not working.

    Most of these items are negative in nature and I'm not here to just slam on the game. I think it has some great potential, but right now it's really still in BETA for those that started playing on Launch day and we really saw "Alpha v2.0" during the limited BETA periods. I'd wait at least a couple months (2019) before purchasing this game as it's got some major issues to resolve first.    … Expand

Many of the games issues stem directly from being an online only game. I am constantly playing will lag, damage takes about half a second to register and many shots seem to miss despite aiming at the target. Enemies sometime spawn, but are not animated until you attack them. Other players are also a big issue, not necessarily by intent, but many time i have encountered other players during 'events' and they are often much higher level than me, meaning i am basically useless during the event as higher level players are just one hitting every enemy, whilst i have to shoot them several times. I have had other people approach my area after i have killed all the enemies, only for the other player to inadvertently trigger all the enemies to respawn and at a higher level. Leaving me surrounded by high level enemies that i have already killed.
    There is also next to no story in the game. No NPCs. No plot motivation. The small amount of meaningless story is delivered through occasional holotape recordings and terminal entries or notes to read. But even those are hard to actually consume seeing that the game is online, you can't pause. Therefore stopping to read a note or hack a computer leaves you standing there whilst enemies are free to attack you. Not very immersive in the story if i feel i need to rush read so i dont get attacked.
    In general the game feels like a chore to play, with nearly no motivation to play. No story. And the Looting really isnt very great either, i rarely find any stash of interesting loot and i dont feel rewarded for any of my actions in game.

    I have just come back to the game to give it another go. Maybe they fixed the issues from launch?
    Well, not really. Certainly LESS bugs, but still buggy. Lag issues still persist (likely on part because my internet is trash, but despite that other game have very little issues with lag). And the game still feels very empty and pointless.

    Cant recommend this game at all really. Some people seem to enjoy it, and i guess if you can see past all the issues, then maybe you could enjoy it, playing with a group of friends may be enjoyable for a short time?
    If they added the option to play entirely client side (offline), then that would likely improve at least my experience. But even with that, the game will still be empty and pointless.

    As a side not regarding reviews of this game: Many people think its fair to give this game a 0 whilst others think 10. Both are very wrong, really no game is zero, and very few would have justified reason for giving them a 10. Perhaps people should think more fairly about how they review rather than be angry at the game or at people who say bad things about something you enjoy. Fallout 76 is objectively a bad game, that doesn't mean no one can enjoy it.    … Expand

    Now it seems to me, the best way to experience the wonders of fallout 76 is to not listen to any reviews posted in and around the beta stage of the game and just play it for yourselves, they are all mostly wrong, way too negative and that to me seems odd, I explored the game and found very little that was being said, I heard rumors that they weren’t being paid enough, who knows, they certainly tried hard enough to kill the game before it could grow and develop.

    For whatever the reason is for all the negatives for this game, it’s beautifully designed, the weather systems seem dynamic and constantly changing, so the game world might look all grey and dull but on other days, bright and full of color.

    When you leave the vault, you are dumped into a mystery, you see signs of life but only dead bodies remain, and you soon come to realize that something else has recently happened to change what was already a world in a mess to become an even bigger graveyard.

    The story unfolds before you in many ways, a lot via diaries found on terminals but a lot are found scattered around the map, a skeleton of a woman found slumped over her pram, while surrounded by bodies of dogs, many of these set scenes are chilling, while some are damn right funny.

    If you are expecting a coop version of Fallout 4, this isn’t it, if you wish to explore a fallout world with other players, then Fallout 76 is for you, you can complete it with friends or solo it all the way to the end.

    My favorite part of the game is the base building, it allows you to claim a small part of the map as your home, to build the type of home your fallout survivor would love to build.

    Just see for yourself, if you loved the other fallout worlds, you should love this, and don’t fret over the fallout lore too much, there are reasons for most of it if not all.

It is impossible to take the world in Fallout 76 seriously when almost every character you hear or read about in the game is female and it is so obvious how they are trying to push the "strong womanz" agenda. There is even a sort of super hero underground "batman" base with super skilled women "super heroes" who appraently can kill 100 of raiders on their own. Just now reading in one database in the game about some guy named Freddy who is a real badass and miss his girl. Oh wait, no wait, "his" name was actually Freddie and it was a girl and it was her girlfriend she was talking about. The whole game is filled with this.

    There is no wonder that Bethesda has started to fall from their grace in the quality of their games falter when they concentrate more on hiring for "diversity" instad of competence and it show right through in their games now (Just like what happened with Bioware and Mass Effect). It is no wonder their "throne" is being overtaken by companies like CD Project RED that actually has some integrity with their games and try to focus on making quality products instead of pushing some pathetic political agenda.

    The second reason this game gets a zero is that there is absolutely no point in having this game online, and it is likewise as obvious it is only done because they hope to be able to get more money that way. Having this game online just annoying when their servers crash, you get lag and there are other annoying players nearby who just distract. I even disconnect sometimes when entering a new area where there are other players to see if I can reconnect where there are no players around. There is absolutely no reason this game should not have an "offline" mode, besides because of the $$$.    … Expand

    This is the worst version of Fallout I have played. Fallout 76 is an empty world with no hint of a story and no motivation to spend hours walking through this empty wasteland. The constant harassment of the new hunger meter, thirst meter, and disease meters combined with online play make this game feel like a large scale mobile phone game that your not supposed to put down. The inclusion of the paid in game store currency "atom" supports this point. The quest system constantly spams your screen and I have found several major quests unplayable due to major bugs. The event system seems great in theory but it has you walking all over the wasteland to further pad the game with pointless objectives. Save your caps and skip this one.    … Expand

    We live in a time when hate sells even more than the video games themselves, and it seems that many reviews are looking for that way, Fallout is not a perfect game but of course it is not garbage and you can appreciate the effort and love deposited in this game.

Set as a resident of Vault 76; players will craft a character and be amongst the first to venture into the Post-Apocalyptic world set in the Virginia wilderness as they attempt to help rebuild a new society.

    Along the way players will encounter all manner of mutated creatures and threats that have zero qualms about tearing a player to pieces or bringing an arsenal of weapons to take down players.
    Anyone who has played any of the series will know that gathering, trading, and crafting is essential to survival as being able to buy, repair, and exchange weapons and armor is essential as they will break and need to be upgraded frequently.

    This is always a trick for some players such as myself as I never know what to fully prioritize when I encounter scrap and can quickly become overburdened. This makes for some very tough choices as player movement will be very restricted and players will be unable to Fast Travel to previously explored areas of the map.

    There is also the matter of needing to ensure that an adequate supply of food, beverages, and medicines are available to restore health as in a radiated area; even stopping for lunch can cause potential damage and mutations to happen.

    There are numerous weapons available to players from crude Pipe Guns to more advanced energy weapons and machine guns and knives. I have found that Melee weapons such as an Axe or a Sledgehammer can do wonders as they do pack a solid punch but are slow and unyielding.
    The map is extremely vast and filled with many areas to explore from old towns to hotels, shops, a mall, an airport, train stations, and pretty much anything else you would expect in a typical community.

    One of the biggest issues in the game is the numerous bugs which hampered the game at launch. Bethesda has worked to fix them through several patches but issues still remain as I write this so players will have to understand that this is part of the game and being addressed but they will likely encounter issues along the way.

    The game has taken a considerable amount of abuse for the state of the game at launch and while I freely admit there are issues; I have had a lot of fun playing the game and have logged a considerable amount of time in it. Despite the frustrations; I have been drawn back to the game time and again to play more. Players I have encountered have been generally helpful and friendly and the game has not become an open Free For All as the Bounty systems in place make it less appealing for players to pick off inexperienced players who are out minding their own business. Some higher-level players have been very generous in passing and have initiated trades to give me High-Level weapons even though I was not able to use them until I reached a higher level.

    There are various Pop-Up events that happen where players can get some nice rewards and slipping into your Power Armor to take down a pack of Scorchers is always a fun experience.

    In many ways this is one of the hardest reviews I have had to write as I can see how some people can be disappointed with the game and will take serious issues with the bugs and general direction. I also see the fun in the game and the progress being made with the updates and enjoy the game despite the issues. If you are patient and temper your expectations with the understanding that the game players have now is not the game they will have several months down the road, then Fallout 76 may be the escapist game you are looking for.

    I like TES and Fallout games because they are immersive. Fallout 76 is not immersive because Bethesda can't account for the unrealistic or idiotic actions, appearances, etc of other players. Their names, clothing, manner of movement, etc just don't make sense from a third person perspective. I'd play a Bethesda game if they go back to relying on NPCs, but not any more like this.

    First, Anyone that votes 0 has ether not played the game or only played it for a few minutes. Don't count those votes as they haven't even put enough time into the game to even judge it.

    I've played this game for about 250 hours now over the course of several weeks. My opinions are outlined below. This game is a beast. There are tons and tons of activities to do in the game. There are    First, Anyone that votes 0 has ether not played the game or only played it for a few minutes. Don't count those votes as they haven't even put enough time into the game to even judge it.

    I've played this game for about 250 hours now over the course of several weeks. My opinions are outlined below.
    This game is a beast. There are tons and tons of activities to do in the game. There are hundreds of quests and even more hidden areas. There is a plethora of lore to be learned and the map is simply astonishing. There are several unique regions in the map that have different creatures and enemies. There is building, farming, and exploring. With the new leveling system, you can change the perks you want to use at any time within the same tree.

    Down to business. The combat. Since the game is primarily online, the VATS system is kinda different. There is a slow degradation on your AP while it's in use and there is no slow time. This makes the VATS system a little different from previous games while still keeping it useful.
    Combat is limited to 2 types, ranged or melee, with trees in each category. While some may want to use a melee build, there is one enemy in game that will annoy you to no end because you become helpless, which is the Scorch Beasts. These nasty creatures fly high in the sky, similar to the dragons in Skyrim. Without a way to ground the beast, a melee character is essentially target practice for the flying balls of death. For this reason, I recommend picking a ranged character.

    For perks, the way it works is each level in a tree, ex; Strength, will give you one more point to spend on cards (perks) each card has a point cost associated with it and can be 'equipped'. If you have level 10 Strength you get 10 points to either spend on 10 cards that cost one or any combination of leveled cards equalling 10. I like this system as it lets me invest into lockpicking but I don't have to keep it active when I'm not picking a lock.

    For building, you can place a house almost anywhere. You set down a camp and hop to it. You have a camp budget and turrets take a LOT of it. If you want a nice home, build it in an area you won't need turrets to defend it. There are mining sites all across the map that let you build machines to gather resources for you passively. They need to be emptied regularly as there is a limit to how much stuff they can hold. Building a home is fairly easy but outfitting it with all the trinkets you want is harder as most of the placeable items are locked and need plans.

    For weapons and armor, the armor in this game has levels. So pick a version you like, and stick with the one. If you want more physical damage reduction compared to energy, then pick something that caters to your class. No one armor is better than another, it just depends on what you like.
    For power armor, this can be argued as better. But you lose access to fist weapons and you have to carry heavy power cores.
    For weapons, you need to scrap them to get attachment plans. See tons of shotguns? Scrap em. ballistic weapons are currently the go to at the moment but don't let this stop you from hitting robots with a weapon their weak against. (energy)

    If you come to a point where you can't put any more items into your stash, you're hoarding too much. Stop it. This isn't Fallout 4. Keep at most 4 weapons, a pile of ammo, and 100 scrap/bulk of each type. If you're running a shotgun class you don't need 3 Fat Mans in your stash. Pro tip, Mini nukes and missiles weigh a lot. If you aren't planning on using them when you pick them up, don't put them in your stash. Same with grenades. USE THOSE EXPLOSIVES.

    I really enjoy this game and having the chance to play it with friends is really nice. If there was one thing I could change about the game, I'd add a Dragon Rend to make those Scorch Beasts land on the ground. It's unfair to melee characters.    … Expand

    Sumado a la habitual cantidad de bugs (marca de la casa), problemas, micropagos, el abandono de la plataforma Steam y el nefasto servicio postventa ofrecido por Bethesda, lo convierten sin duda en lo peor que recuerdo.
    No vale ni un céntimo del dinero que se paga por él.
    De ahí que la rebaja en el precio sea ya escandalosa. Pero la gente no es -tan- tonta, el juego no va a remontar, y me alegro. Nunca debió nacer.

    There were less people, and finding someone without a chat was reeeeally hard, i tried teleporting in front of them and emotes, but usually it was of no use. And oh boy i tried using voice chat to communicate, if you don't like talking to yourself - not recommended. So, since all the easy zones were completely done and i needed help with the harder ones i went to discord, but discord parties didn't prove to be efficient, cos nobody was committed enough, and parties like this last 30 min to 2 hours, usually doing nothing. So i decided to give it some time, and stopped playing for a month.

    When i have learned that a mod (a mod, carl!) for chat came out, i rushed to check if f76 is now somewhat playable. I ve been logging in for a couple of weeks to try and find someone i can finally team up with to explore those harder zones, but as it turned out, few people play f76, and even fewer use the chat mod, so i tried to do at least something in this game while i am looking for a teammate, and started building my camp anew. There were 2 players in the session, me lvl 50 and some guy lvl 120 or whatever, so while i was building this guy sneaked up on me and rezkilled until i alt+f4, my lvl 30 shotgun did him about 20% damage, and he paralyzed me with a 50% hp shot.

    Anyway. Today i was ready to try it one more time. But my fallout 76 is not launching anymore, and there is literally no help on forums or google. Google only contains posts of hatred and so on.

    And i understand those people, there is no way to leave any kind of feedback about this horrible game to anyone. It's not even on steam!

    People may have different opinions, but DO NOT TRUST ALL THOSE 10 REVIEWS, NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD GIVE THIS A 10, EVEN A MASOCHIST PLAYING THEIR FIRST GAME IN VR.    … Expand

    Bethesda is currently on notice. Do not buy any games from them and do not pre-order anything they put out until you're 100% certain that what you're getting is worth what you're paying for.

    This game for me is the definition of bad. I really can't put it any other way, from the gameplay to the world almost everything finds a way to get under the player's skin and infuriate them. Here are some of those things that stuck out and ultimately destroyed my experience:

    Deserted wasteland- The world itself is actually pretty good with plenty of unique places to go and explore, but    This game for me is the definition of bad. I really can't put it any other way, from the gameplay to the world almost everything finds a way to get under the player's skin and infuriate them. Here are some of those things that stuck out and ultimately destroyed my experience:

    Deserted wasteland- The world itself is actually pretty good with plenty of unique places to go and explore, but it seems like Bethesda went for quantity over quality. Nearly every location is empty and void to any life. There are holo tapes and notes that go over the location's past, but each location on the map feels identical just with a new coat of paint.

    Gameplay- It's the worst. Each gun feels the same with semi-auto being the only real choice because of scarce ammo and the fact they do far more damage. You can only run for 10 seconds before you have to slow down. There are some cool enemies to fight, but you won't be fighting them because the game wants you to fight either the scorch, robots, feral ghouls, or super mutants, all of which are the same. There is honestly no redeeming qualities for the gameplay.

    The story and how it's told - The story is really weak. It has something to do with scorch(zombies), but that is all I could make of it. It's told in really boring holo tapes and computer screens and only those.

    The inventory - This is going to be hard to explain, but basically, for every hour of play you need to spend 5 minutes looking at a horrible UI trying to optimize your carry capacity. 5 minutes might not sound like a lot, but it slowly becomes harder as the game expects you to carry at least twice what you can normally carry.

    Overall: should you buy this game? No, even if you are someone that really enjoys these types of games, do not buy this game right now. There has already been a 20$ price reduction and currently, the game isn't that stable. If the game drops to 20$ and is bug-free, I still wouldn't recommend this game; but at that point, it's up to you. Just keep in mind Bethesda is not allowing for refunds.    … Expand

    No NPC and a sorry excuse for a story. Originally false advertisement for the collectors edition, only when possible lawsuits came up could the company be bothered to fix this or rather promise to make up for it with producing canvas bags - as advertised.

Telling us that we will rebuild America with a 400 lb storage was so stupid. So much time wasted managing the ridiculous storage. The missions delevered by terminals and robots are mostly boring. It probably happened the same thing to the story than to the NPCs: Nothing because it will be to long to implement it and they needed to focus on the ''Holy Release Date''. I bet that the true creators of the Fallout universe are probably mad because someone dnt give them the time they needed to complete the work properly. Endgame is even more boring and grindy. Often no loot because of bugs, at is summum when happens with the endboss! The brightness of the game is aggressive for the eyes and no setting to adjust it... No more special points after level 50 so for the last difficulty gap you need 2 shots weapon not to die in endless grindy shooting of bulletsponges ennemies. And you know what? Facing the lack of centent, they had the idea to nurf the only weapons type that get the job done.

    Хочешь узнать, подойдет эта игра тебе или нет? Попроси незнакомца испражниться тебе на руку, заплати за это и поднеси руку к своему лицу. Если тебе это понравилось, то игра определенно твоя.

    Why people are so negative? I created metacritic account only for this game. Bugs - not so many as you think. For me game wasn't boring. I'm sure, most of reviewers even don't have this game. They just following majority opinion.

    Bethesda should never have released the game like this. They have taken everything out of the game for what Fallout stands and have replaced it with multiplayer mechanics that they apparently do not even understand.

    Like many other gamers, I love Fallout, for me is one of the biggest universes in the history of video games. Excellent games, exceeding expectations and the certainty of many good times, was something Bethesda had accustomed us to, and expected the same here, my hype was very high.

Excellent games, exceeding expectations and the certainty of many good times, was something Bethesda had accustomed us to, and expected the same here, my hype was very high.
    And the day came, and with it the disappointment, the frustration, the sadness, the feeling of being deceived. But even there, I still tried to enjoy the game, tried to forget problems and bugs, tried to play, explore and have fun. The weeks passed, the patchs, fixes and updates arrived and little changed, and I kept going but the game continue the same, nothing changed.

    Today, maybe after 100 hours since i started my journey, after trying almost everything there the game has to offer and explore every corner of the map, after have read and seen so much about this game, I think I can review it properly.
    I'm trying to ponder what I write and not do a review in fury, but so little good I have to write.
    I feel we were deceived by Bethesda, the game was not ready, and even if it transforms in the next few months Bethesda is not a small company, that may need to rush a game for financial reasons, that may not have the money or human resources to create a quality product, ready from day one. Is unacceptable and incomprehensible.

    I'm not going to talk much about the bugs, but everyone knows that many of them were already on Fallout 4 and many of them the community corrected with mods. I'm not going to talk much about server instability, crashes and technical problems. I'm not even go talk about the absurd prices on the Atomic Store.
    I only want to talk about the lack of NPCs and the game history, which are very interconnected, and which are what I miss most against the other Bethesda games. Bethesda used the justification to the lack of NPC's was something innovative, but the argument seems more like a justification for an unfinished work that no one wanted to finish. Obviously it's easier to say that is "part of the picture", that is working as intended than completing what is missing.
    And this lack of NPC's affects the story a lot, after a short time the history becomes so predictable in any quest line that I believe even Bethesda realized that and quit to continue to extend the quest lines, as we were used to on the previous Fallout games.

    Unfortunately I have to agree with many others who dislike the game, the point where it is. And recommend anyone interested in the game to try another game, and hope that someday Bethesda can deliver us what they really promised us.    … Expand

    Fallout 76 represents a big disappointment and the lowest point of the series so far. Riddled with bugs, repetitive and dull gameplay, nonexistent story and outdated graphics, it fails as a both multiplayer and singleplayer experience for fans and newcomers alike.

    Miracles do happen once in a while and No Man’s Sky proved that sometimes it is possible to get back on your feet even after a terrible failure. Right now though Fallout 76 is botched spectacularly on so many levels that even talking about this game is a waste of time. [01/2019, p.46]

    An unfinished game with bifurcated identity and in an almost dysfunctional state. It's hard to build on a bad base, that will never change. Like the war. [Issue#292]
