    Sometimes fun, but mostly trash. Bugs, crashes, and reused assets. A money grab.

    I think its a great fallout game, been playing it alot since release. If you're interested in the game, just look on lets play videos on the game and decide for yourself. Don't listen to the youtubers that just copy their information from other youtubers and subreddit.

    Most servers are full and the players are very helpful.

    I've been looking at trying this game ever since it got added to Steam but only recently decided to give it a chance due to such mixed opinions on the game.

    It's a glorified fetch quest game with nothing ever interesting, annoying survival meters and too small inventory / stash size.
    I encountered some bugs (although not as bad as I thought it would be or used to be), the first being my UI was invisible, my fps was capped at 72 and my controls never saved, all of those I managed to fix with some .ini edits.
    The other bug I had was I lost everything I placed in my base half the time when I close the game which sort of killed any motivation to keep playing.

    If you don't mind fetch quests I would maybe say try it on sale. Never full price.    … Expand

    this was just a cash grab. it'll be interesting to see how many more times they can do this to the Fallout series. The smart people I know avoided this game. I got it for super low $ and i'm glad i did because it is terrible.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fallout 76 took over my life. Besides bugs, glitches and weekly disconnects, this game has alot to do even after level 50 and main quest line completion.
    I highly pushing your way to level 50 before you decide not to play. Stay rested, eat some cranberry and you will soar through levels in less than 24 hours game time.    … Expand

    This game is not as bad as people say. The main idea of all games of bethesda is present. Players can do everything they want, the are so many different locations to visit and many enemies to defeat and rewards to beat them. Graphics are bad and there are technical errors but the game is still fun

    По сути это мультиплеерная 4ка. Я рад, что беседка не забила на игру и довела её до играбельного состояния, конечно у игры остается ещё огромное количество недостатков, но постепенно разработчики исправляют ситуацию, игра обрастает контентом,По сути это мультиплеерная 4ка.

Multiply it by, at least, 2 to get, for example, PVE (Hunter's) and PVP (Assassin's) sets. Even boosters can't help me as there is a daily limit of 300 Legendary Scrip.

    The plot of everything is boring, and the whole game is underdeveloped and buggy. They keep adding new bugs and rarely fix old ones.

    It's fun. Definitely got much better since launch. The story isn't as good as single player fallout, but it is workable and there is lots of stuff to grind and do.

I do not have anything negative to say about repetitive quests. I think this talk about frequently mentioned stuff is enough.… Expand

    It's actually fun game with a pretty good map and neat character development system. The basic gameplay loop is satisfying enough, the problem is, they want you to pay for it like for an mmo, but offer nowhere near enough new content, the endgame is basically just grinding weapons and stuff for your house, if you are into building you can easly read this review as 8 instead, just keep inIt's actually fun game with a pretty good map and neat character development system.

    I bought this game for PS4 at launch. It was without a doubt, one of the worst, most buggiest, boring and downright annoying games I have ever played.

    If you put all bethesda's dodgy dealings and goings on aside and look at what they have done with this game since, its absolutely astonishing.

    It plays perfectly on my P.C, 20 hours in and not a bug/glitch or crash.
    The graphics are slightly dated and the combat similiar to older games but the introduction of N.P.C's has really made this game into a true fallout experience.

    I am so happy that Bethesda didn't just bin this game and that they stayed true to their word in the end.

    This game for me is about on par with F04.

    The Map is awesome. I really enjoy the atmosphere of the game and it feels really good playing. But well yeah its a mess of bugs the storry sucks there is no text chat, PVP is the worst and micro transactions. Worth buying? If you have friends to play yes, if not no

    I liked it more when they had more love for the PvP. but its a nice place to live for a while. but i dont feel like it has too much life let in it unless they revamp PvP in major ways.

    W życiu nie grałem w tam mało klimatyczną grę. Twórcy w ogóle nie wiedzą o co chodzi w świecie Fallout ! Bardziej to gra SIMS niż Fallout. Szkoda czasu - i tak projekt zostanie zamknięty do 2 lat.

    Как по мне игра не плохая, в чём плюс , прошло больше 2 ух лет, а она продолжает развиваться. По мне это больше одиночная игра , нежели онлайн , тут кому как. Советую всем хоть чуть-чуть ,но поиграть в неё и основываться только на своём опыте.Как по мне игра не плохая, в чём плюс , прошло больше 2 ух лет, а она продолжает развиваться.

    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]
