    As a huge fallout fan (played all of them, even tactics) and someone who ordered a collector's edition of FO76, I have to say this game is a joke and I'm glad I managed to sell my CE to get rid of it. I've played the so called B.E.T.A extensively on high end PC (by the way - 'great idea' Bethesda to release a beta 2 weeks before scheduled production release) and this is my review:

I've played the so called B.E.T.A extensively on high end PC (by the way - 'great idea' Bethesda to release a beta 2 weeks before scheduled production release) and this is my review:

    + it's a fallout game...kind of

    - abysmal performance and optimisation, outdated graphics, crashes across all platforms.
    - terrible reuse of an old single player game engine to patch together a shallow online experience
    - possible hacks, tons of bugs, easy exploits, terrible AI and pathing which leads me to believe that QA department in this company doesn't exist or they smoked crack while testing it
    - 24 people per server on a giant map. in 2018...
    - game tries to cater to PvE players even though there's no real PvE (robot NPCs, really?), end game doesn't exist
    - game tries to cater to PvP crowd when the combat system between players is totally neutered and really worthless.
    - and a lot of other issues there's no point in mentioning anymore

    Bethesda should be ashamed of releasing a product in this state, regardless of the game design they had for this title.

    If you need your Fallout dose, play one of the earliest titles with mods.
    If you want a higher risk/reward survival sandbox PvP game, play Rust. It's growing very well and has a consistent user base with a lot of different server types. OR play Conan, or Ark. Or whatever else, just not this piece of crap.

    PLEASE - DO. NOT. BUY. THIS
    At least wait for a huge sale (it has already started) and then maybe check it out for yourself. Otherwise please, vote with your wallet and stay away from this piece of crap as far as possible.    … Expand

    Don’t buy this game. I preordered it for $200 cause I’m a die hard fan of the franchise but this game is a colossal **** bag and spit on the consumers. Buggy, terrible graphics, appalling frame rate, no npcs and dog **** combat. I’ve played 30 hours and It was a waste. If you want a good game go buy Read Dead Redemption because that game is worth every penny unlike this game.

Before I first played the game, I was hesitant on the lack of NPCs, but I found that I really didn't miss them, but the quests and story telling were not as compelling as the previous installments and I did not find myself with the same cravings to come back for more. What finally did it for me was the difficultly; it was either ridiculously easy or painfully impossible with no real balance in between. Consequently, I would find myself frequently shifting from being bored to incredibly frustrated. I did not mind the online component and thought it was a welcome change; however, it seems that the developers embraced every annoying aspect of online games and crammed them into Fallout 76. I would have preferred more content for Fallout 4 then this heaping pile of "potatoes" and I don't see how this game will be successful in the long term. As much as I like the Fallout series and despite the money and time I have spent on this game, I no longer want to play it...… Expand

    This is the result of laziness. A Fallout 4 mod quickly spun into its own game, filled with....nothing, Base building for zero purpose, PVP that doesn't work and a world thats so lacking in content its embarrassing.

    Bethesda doesn't have a 'review' function, so I am resorting to this website. Don't believe all the BS that fallout fans are bombing this game simply because it's online, or they don't like the look of it without playing, or some other BS to assure you that only the crybabies are reviewing this game. The hate from people who have actually played this game is real, and OMFG is it deserved!Bethesda doesn't have a 'review' function, so I am resorting to this website. Don't believe all the BS that fallout fans are bombing this game simply because it's online, or they don't like the look of it without playing, or some other BS to assure you that only the crybabies are reviewing this game. The hate from people who have actually played this game is real, and OMFG is it deserved!

    Let's start with bugs:
    You expect bugs from a BETA, right? Of course you do, it's a BETA! The problem is that not only are these bugs rampant and horrible, but the BETA didn't even have a month, and after full release the bugs are still here in the full glory! Pete Hines and his buddies at Bethesda have promised many more bugs to come, and this would be okay if we had a long early-access/BETA period, but the game is fully out already. To make things worse, Bethesda games being buggy has not only become a long running trademark, it has become their unofficial slogan.

    The story:
    When you start the game, you wake up after the vault party and everyone is gone, so it makes sense that as you go about the vault that you feel late to the event and everyone left the vault without you. The problem is you will get this feeling throughout the entire fecking game... There is no more excitement in the story as you will never meet anyone from the billions of holotapes you are forced to listen to, and you will never encounter new and quirky characters who give you a new quest. It's recording after recording after recording after recording after recording after recording after recording. You won't be doing a quest and encounter a vault full of Gary clones, you won't have to make decisions that affect the story or quest, you won't get any real surprises.

    The big issue for many, Human NPCs:
    Without Human NPCs this game is dull and boring as hell. Almost 40 square Kilometres, and only 24 human players to fill it. Human players who usually treat this game as a full MMO. This means, don't care about interaction beyond friends and squad, story doesn't really matter, and Bethesda's stupid pipe-dream of everyone taking up the roles of human NPCs with stores and interactions is a joke. It's a nice idea, but was more of a lazy decision to rush out a game and have it so all the story is delivered via recordings. This won't work outside of private strict roleplay servers, and will *NOT* work on a massive map with not even 1 person per square Kilometre. The server capacity for this game is a joke as even early-access indie games such as Rust have more players on the servers. I mean 40 square Kilometres with only 24 people and no Human NPCs for a fallout game is just a terrible idea...

    General gameplay:
    Ranged combat is sluggish, unoptimized, and just plain terrible in 3rd person. Unless you are shooting at long range, you will find aiming to be a pain with guessing how far to the side you have to aim in order to hit. Throwing knives are buggy even in 1st person at short range and with perfect line of sight to your target. Hit boxes frequently fail to connect with your attacks, and ranged attacks hitting seem to rely on RNG mechanics more than any other MMO I have played. The most exciting thing that is likely to happen during a trip is maybe a pack of glitchy dogs attack you. C.A.M.P is pathetically disappointing. All I do is move to one area, kill some mobs, and go to the next.

    Conclusion:
    The way I see it, some people at Bethesda wanted to make another Fallout game, and they had a meeting. In that meeting person NO.1 said " We want to make money with this game, how do we go about doing that? Ideas, go!". Person NO.2 replied "Well one thing we could do is cut Human NPCs out of the game and have all quests delivered via recordings. Also server capacity should be limited to 24 people, the map should be stupid big, and let's fill the world with mobs and a few boss monsters". Person NO.1 "Sounds good, should rake in millions, who cares about what the fan-base really wants?!".

    The weapons and armour have been expanded, nice survival mechanics. The graphics are great! I don't know why people are complaining about that, we don't need a giant leap in graphics for a game to be good. I loved Fallout 3 and NV graphics, and I loved the newer Fallout 4 graphics, and what Fallout 76 has isn't new, but it's just fine. The amazing map, with amazing locations to explore is fun to go about killing mobs and looting their corpses, but that's all you'll do...

    This game is just a generic bare-bones explore and kill mobs MMO with Call Of Duty server player capacity, lot's of mind-numbing audio recordings, lot's of bugs to enjoy, grindy as hell mechanics, and 40 square Kilometres of beautiful boringness to explore and kill mobs for XP and measly cap rewards. This is just a bland lower player capacity MMO that isn't really an MMO, that has a fallout skin slapped on and blessed by Crinja, so that little Fortinte kids will want to play it    … Expand

    They didnt have to hire all these voice actors or program a lot of AI , or even really do much to the story. It is a very lazy cash grab and nothing more. the game is shallow and has no soul, it's a pew pew game with the same chores over and over with no cool or interesting NPCs ( no NPCs at all actually)...

    If this was $20 I would tolerate but selling a multiplayer mode for $60 that uses almost all the assets from fallout 4 and hardly any of its own is ridiculous.. I dont know whats up with devs lately , it seems it's not about making great games anymore but to make a quick buck. . Gaming is no longer about pleasing the customer, it's about customers pleasing the companies only. We give all our hard earned money to these people so they can go to work and get away with doing a crappy job over and over again..

    This game suffers from the worst flaw of any game. It's boring!

    Of all things the only thing a video game is supposed to do is: be fun!

    And yet, devoid of any substance or complexity, this game is just waiting for a modder to come along and make it actually good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After playing this game for hundreds of hours, trying to find the 'fallout' in it, I've been greatly disappointed in the games many problems and embarrassing errors they should have fixed before putting this piece of work on the market (especially at a $60 price tag). There was really only 1 thing I found good about this game...and a lot bad.

    Pros - game has great exploration; graphics are perhaps above average for this era.

    Cons - (1) interface is archaic - I have no idea who was overseeing the interface designer, but they should have been fired. From clunky combinations and multiple menus to get to something that should have only taken 1 to key combinations that conflict with others (such as exit power armor and inviting someone to your team, the interface of this game is simply embarrassing to say the least, especially for a company like Bethesda.
    (2) poor/ambiguous PVP elements - from having pacifist mode to being attacked by a high level player and having them whittle me away to nothing (though I am pacifist and don't want to PVP), I found their PVP system to be pretty much garbage. You either are making your game PVP and forcing others to PVP or you aren't. Make up your mind, Beth-tardesda. I personally don't care to PVP and I don't want to be forced into it. But they don't give any explanation of how PVP works. You just sorta have to find out when in game. and pray you've deposited all your scrap in your stash beforehand.
    (3) Bugs. Honestly, this game should be sueable simply by the amount of bugs it has--not just minor bugs--but game breaking bugs. Crash to desktop bugs, which happen regularly--to regularly to be acceptable. Perhaps every 30 minutes or more often. Lag bugs, where creatures are hitting you and/or you them when you've loaded an area, but you can't see anything. Glitch bugs where creatures arms/legs/body is distorted like 20 feet in the air when dead...or creatures being stuck under the ground during a settlement quest or other, making it impossible to finish the quest. The bugs and utter lack of quality assurance in this area break this game. I can take all the things I thought were nice about it and put them in the pot and piss on them. Because it doesn't matter how much of a 'good game' you could have had, if its so damn riddled with bugs it's unplayable. And that is what this game is. It's absolute garbage. I honestly hope they get sued and run out of business. Shame on them for releasing this game about 6 months sooner than it should have been.
    With that said, I say, "no, No, NO!" Don't buy this. Don't even think of buying this. I wouldn't even buy it if it was on sale for $15. It's not even worth that. If they were to ever work out the bugs, the game still wouldn't pass with a 7. WHich brings me to my next con...
    (4) Balancing - I think they nerfed good loot. Haven't seen a decent weapon or armor piece in almost 2 weeks of continual farming. But besides that, you just don't get any good loot or bosses or anything like that at low level. From around L1-40, you're stuck trying to find events around the map and doing the main quests...and pretty much nothing else. No point in farming. There is nowhere to farm. No places, other than those wolf quests, to farm low level legendaries. And once you get 40-50 (and you could do it sooner, if you're careful or use power armor), you go to Whitesprings. But once you're there, that's about it. You level...and level....and do the scorch queen when it's up...and then go back to leveling at Whitesprings. Or maybe Watoga. End game in this useless game is a joke. 0/10 for End game.
    WIth that said, don't waste your time on this game. Don't even buy it if it's on sale for $5.00. It will be the biggest waste of your $5 bill you ever did.    … Expand

    This isn't part of a review bomb, gang mentality or following the bandwagon. This game is terrible.
    The world feels empty, void of any content, it feels stripped of anything that is interesting. You walk around aimlessly for hours following quests which are so shallow it's almost painful, fetch quests are all the game has to offer you. Walk here, collect this, walk there collect that,    This isn't part of a review bomb, gang mentality or following the bandwagon. This game is terrible.

You walk around aimlessly for hours following quests which are so shallow it's almost painful, fetch quests are all the game has to offer you. Walk here, collect this, walk there collect that, shoot a few horrible animated, disgustingly buggy monsters, walk back to the robot hand in quest, get caps (currency) and repeat.
    There is no characters in this game, a few robots that are so similar to each other you cannot tell the difference, no NPC to get invested in, no story or interesting dialogue to keep you pursuing and prodding further nothing. The game is unstable, server crashes, poor performance, so many bugs occur all of the time. The graphics are somehow worse than Fallout 4, it literally feels like a carbon copy of Fallout 4 but somehow downgraded, performs worse, over-saturated, horrendous texture resolutions, terrible animations, terrible post processing effects that blur out everything. You walk around seeing the world as if your face is inside a telescopic lens, everything is so zoomed in and claustrophobic, monsters can vanish from under your nose.
    PVP is the most useless system in this game, you deal a small portion of damage to an enemy to initiate a "duel" however, the duel will not take place until the other player shoots you back. This leads to a situation where the other player can stack on all of the best gear, best weapons and kill you with the very same shot it took them to start the duel.
    The game is void of anything, it is one of the most disgusting releases I have ever come across, it is such an insult to anybody that has paid £50 to play this unfinished, buggy, uninteresting, disgusting to look at, 50GB pile of dog.

    This game feels like swimming underwater, at night, with no oxygen tank or a flashlight in the middle of the ocean. And when you try to go to the surface to breath, you cannot. The ocean drags you back and slowly drains your life while you struggle to survive. You will not survive, it is the worst game I have ever played. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this.

    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]
