    The game can be extremely fun with friends (like most things). For the most part, the funniest things are usually bugs or glitches though which isnt a good sign. Exploration and the world on the other hand are amazing in my opinion. It is way more interesting and detailed and colorful than Fallout 4 was and so it gives sort of more insentive to look around and find cool places. I have to admit, F76 has some of the best looking areas in any Bethesda game to date. I have't explored the whole map yet so I cannot say if the game gets boring after that, but it certainly isn't that yet.

    I haven't played the main quests or really any quests for that matter, since they are not interesting at all. There are no memorable characters. Unless a roaming super mutant merchant or a 100th Mr Handy bot with the same exact voice is memorable to you. It really is you making your own story and fun which isn't really what Fallout has been nor what people want it to be.

    The technical side is a mess. Graphics to me do not look as bad as some people are saying but they're not good either. Animations are janky and outdated, lack of push to talk makes it so nobody is ever talking, game lags when loading things in (almost as badly as Subnautica for instance) and there is a lot of pop in in certain areas. Enemy AI is braindead for the most part and either run right at you or run away as fast as possible so you can't even hit them with VATS.

    Gunplay to me is also very outdated and takes some getting used to and I suppose it has its own charm to it but it could be way better. VATS seems fine to me, though I do only use it on enemy npcs and not other players. PVP is a complete mess. The system doesn't seem to know what it wants to be. I was being shot at and all I had to do was ignore it and not shoot back even though I was in someone elses base. The gunplay does not fit pvp at all and the hitboxes being weird in this game, I don't see a reason to do any PVP at all.

    Overall I do enjoy the game even if I don't want to. It could be a good game but Bethesda has taken a wrong way to go with the game. I do hope they fix the issues that are present in the game right now but knowing Bethesda that might not happen. I guess my final verdict is that the game is NOT worth 60 dollars but if you can get it somewhere cheaper, sure go for it. It can be fun    … Expand

    I was actually excited for a multiplayer Fallout game, but this game is just boring. People can't attack you unless you want them to. The enemies are extremely easy to defeat and mostly they just stand in place and shoot, doing little damage. There is a VERY thin story that really is only there to get you to walk around. The events are "keep spawning bad guys until timer runs out."I was actually excited for a multiplayer Fallout game, but this game is just boring. People can't attack you unless you want them to.

The events are "keep spawning bad guys until timer runs out." Your base is meaningless because people can't steal your stuff anyways. So what are you supposed to do in this game? I'm level 10 now and I honestly don't know. You can complete "go press a button on a computer terminal" and/or "kill enemies until the timer runs out" quests to gain experience then haul stuff back to your stash. That's basically it. With almost no plot, no NPCs, no penalty for dying, such a low difficulty to play, very little extremely casual PVP... I really don't see why anyone would put more than a few hours into this game. The point of the game really seems to be to explore the map and look at the pretty scenery. With no real in-game motivation to keep progressing, it almost feels like you would be better off running through all the areas without fighting anything so that you can see all the sights without having to waste time leveling up. I'm willing to give it a 3 for now, maybe it's just the beginning content that is bland but I really see no hope for this game getting better as I rank up.… Expand

    This game is Early Access, content bare, and is just an expansion map for Fallout 4, to the point where mods from that title are working without any changes in Fallout 76. That is how little work was done to fix the engine. If you want to see the OCD cleaning simulator, they by all means grab it at full price and hope that they sell enough copies to eventually add in all the missing content and fix the *amazing* array of bugs. It would also be nice if they can stop all the cheating that is already being noticed two days after launch. Just Google "Fallout 76 Nulear Codes" and you will see all Bethesda'a claims about nukes being limited and not overly useful for PvP, just became a lot less true. All because they implemented it in the laziest way possible that took one whole day to bypass.

    Fun Fact: They made a profit of $400m+ from Fallout 4, and now have a team size of 400 people. Apparently 85% are all level builders...    … Expand

    On a basic level, FAllout 76 is fun. It's fun to explore the map with friends, listen to audio diaries and shoot a few crystal zombies. However, after about three hours a feeling starts to settle in that you've seen all there is.

    Fallout 76s world is functional. Someone really had fun with the map editor. They're on-pair with Fallout 4, in some cases even better. The places feel lived-in and every town went trough little transformations that where build by the survivors.

    Shame you don't meed a single one of them.

    What you meet are crystal zombies, molerats, wild dogs and ghouls that will some times spawn in hordes five meters behind you like in an early 2000s mmo whenever the game feels you need some action. Not that it would be a challenge tho. You can easily outperform the ai by simple walking backwards and shoot the approaching enemies. Often enough they will bug on reaching you, make their attack animation. Then stand there for a second like they just forgot what they wanted to do before approaching you once again.

    Public quests are similiar. I've seen more interesting ones in RIFTS initial release - in 2011. But they don't matter - the loot that they offer doesn't matter. Like most loot in the game. After finding more then fifty pipe pistols it starts to get tideous.

    Fallout 76 feels like Fallout 4 - just less. Less crafting. Less building. Less enemies. Less character development. I would write less rpg too, but the truth is that Fallout 76 isn't an rpg anymore. It's a mediocre shooter with progression trough lootboxes.

    It's noteworthy that there's a surprising lack of clothing and furniture in the game. The cynic in me assumes that it has to do with the built-in online shop. As the 60$ initial cost where merely an entry fee to the shop. Here you can buy hats for 5$, power armor paintjobs for up to 20$ or new furniture for your base. As well as looks for your character and other cosmetics. Even clothing.

    Which is kinda neeeded if you want to stick out. The Character Editor is even more basic then Fallout 4s, which is baffling considering this is a multiplayer title. You will see the same 15 faces again and again. Because that's all you get.

    Last but not least is the inventory management and menu control: It's bad. On the pc, building a base feels like playing the Piano. There was no effort in improving controls. It's really, really dissapointing.

    Fallout 76 feels like something the B team made with existing assets. A quirky little thing for learning and testing the waters. Sold for 20 bucks. But it's not. It's a fully fledged product for 60$ with an in-game shop containing items for hundreds of dollars. And to me, it feels like someone wanted to make the most money with the least amount of work possible. The truly nefarious could even go as far and say that it's another take on paid mods by turning the Fallout franchise in a 'live service'    … Expand

    But let's be honest, Fallout 76 is a buggy mess which reminds me of DayZ version .01 bad. Half the quests have to be done 3 or 4 times to complete right, many times enemies are frozen in spot. New Vats feels like an afterthought.

    No Push to talk is retarded, absolutely the stupidest thing in any game online EVER, (will be fixed in time they say)

    No NPC's(where will they scream REEE now?) the lack of any rush or real connection like previous fallout games had is just a total show of how much Todd cares about the cash over making something to be proud of. If they are not DLC/Patched in this will be a total waste of a game.

    Last rant before the good, "Level Capped Weapons" Thinking back to my favorite fallout game being tactics (yah I'm that one guy :P) they had special locked games so you worked towards more strength or intelligence. but no Bethesda screws us with level capped gear, breaking any immersion. such a disappointment the faults.

    The good.
    -The community is awesome so many people wanted this to be their dream fallout so unlock the mods Bethesda before we all jump ship
    -Team play when it works is amazing, Taking down a DeathClaw pack with the wife and some friends was epic
    -lighting is nice, not great not awesome just nice
    -Card system is actually pretty cool
    -Camp is way better now
    -clothes and armor can be fun to mess around with

    there is so much more meh and bad I can say but I leave this to Bethesda, if you do not bring NPC's to this game and improve the glitches I will wait till another company picks up the pieces and makes their own fallout like game as it will be the last I buy from your studio

    Did you like Fallout 4? I sort of did but it was my least favourite Fallout game by a large margin.

    Did you enjoy wandering about exploring in Fallout more the story stuff? I did not.

    As a PC gamer do you like the idea of playing a Bethesda that has no mod support. Nope!

    Do you like the idea of survival games such as Conan Exiles? I didn't know before I played this and now I'll probably never touch the likes of Conan Exiles.

    Do you like the idea of broken PvP that punishes both players? Obviously no.

    If none or maybe only one of these applies to you like does with me... This maybe isn't the game for you. At the very least for those of you who are interested... maybe wait a year or two and see what they do to improve upon it.    … Expand

I really want to love this title and there are many things to love about it; the land is wonderful to look at but does not render when you zoom in on it. The structures you can build look nice and feel like they are yours but you are going to fight with the build system to make your structure. There are so many new things to find but no explanation is given on what the Mods do and most of them don't even state what item they mod or even how to mod your items... There are heaps of new creatures to encounter but they move in ways that just are not even close to realistic, sometimes not even moving their limbs but still able to easily "glide" after you. The lighting is wonderful unless you are seeing light rays shine through a mountain as the sun sets behind it or notice the glow of a light that does nothing to light up an area or just random light boxes that turn off or on because you are standing on one side of a doorway or other. The sounds are really nice and the environment sounds rich but then you look around to see the birds that are making noise and there are never any birds there are birdhouses that have been constructed around the place and even small setup where the time has been taken to show that someone was making and painting these birdhouses. And not just the missing birds but the radios that are spread around the towns are playing copyright music that gets your videos demonetised and you lose revenue because of this and you can't change the radios to music you may own the rights to because that just is not a function and the radios are tied directly into the "sound effects" so if you want to not get copyright strikes on your youtube you have to play the game with no sound effects.. Why is this even a thing? The map is massive and there is so much to explore and you hardly see anyone and that's really nice but if someone does walk into the area you are in every enemy respawns and you have to fight them all again and if that person is a higher level than you then good luck your about to get owned by all the enemies that will spawn in at their higher level.
    I really wanted to love this game and I got it the first day it was released but I just can't play it anymore. I am level 39 and I am hating the game. I fight with the build mechanics and bad menu system to make a base around the workbenches to have the server kick me and I lose all my resource I put into building my area up around the workbench. My building is never on any of the servers again. In the middle of a battle, the game pulls up my weapons wheel when I am in combat? I am told this happens to so many other players. I love the little things about the game but overall I hate this and if I was a first-time player I would never buy anything from Bethesda after this and I would want nothing to do with any of the Fallout titles. This game is just broken and each time I play it on a Friday I am finding I am hating it more and more. Fix your game Bethesda I know you rushed it out to get the Xmas dollars, now mostly only hackers are playing your game. Oh yeah, the issues with hackers are getting worse. Able to kill you even though you don't fight back to finish the PvP activation. 1 shot your dead? So much for a good time. I am so mad and sad about this I don't even have words to say how much this title upsets me without swearing in many combinations of filthy words. Someone or many people need to be fired due to this poorly rushed game release. The head of Bethesda should step down! On the other hand, some of the level designers should be promoted it's only because out for eye for details and design did I stick out the game for this long. Oh, and the microtransaction store can F right off! Never would I spend a cent more EVER! Don't buy this game unless you plan to let it sit uninstalled until 6 months or a year have passed so they have time to fix the game.

    I was a fan of Fallout games for many years, however this game just doesn't really know what its trying to achieve. Its filled with bugs, 0 story line, every mission is go here, kill this, go here pick up this. I feel totally ripped off to be honest, the hype at E3, trailers all looked great.

    We ended up with an old cheeseburger that has been dropped on the floor, smeared around a little and then sent out for service.    … Expand

    I wanted to like this game, but it has nothing to do in it. No real story and without npc characters the world feels empty. Do not spend $60 on this game.

    this game sucks because the engine is outdated and there is no people I could find and It overall was very boring the graphics looked outdated and every thing dies in one shot, please Bethesda fix your game and update your engine

    Under no circumstances is a full-priced game with microtransactions acceptable to me.
    $60 is too much for a game like this
    F76 is cash flow optimized to milk the customers.
    Bethesda should rather change their engine and publish bug-free games.

    Told Refunds not available, boring unplayable buggy mess. This release for Bethesda needed to be on the ball and execute it properly. They have really let everything slip just for sales and may now have lost many future customers

    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]
