    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will not list all the limitations of this wretched game since hundreds of other users have done it for me. I'll just add something from myself. I sincerely regret that Bethesda has acted like this with Fallout. I just can not hold back tears. Todd, thank you for killing this series of games.… Expand

    As a Bethesda fan since Morrowind teleported me to another world when I was a kid...this is absolutely embarrassing.

There's barely any writing in this game, and it's all delivered through mindnumbing goddamn audiologs. The rest of the experience is equally half baked, and relies so heavily on the genuinely awful creation engine and boring, repetitive combat. The multiplayer does little to lift up the rest of the experience. Wait for red dead online to come out instead… Expand

    I have been a huge fan of the franchise. Replayed Fallout 1, 2 and 3 several times. Fallout: New Vegas, very good in my opinion. Fallout 4 not as good as the previous one, but still, it felt alive.

    The feeling I get after playing for like 20 hours, is like if I was doing a game and I would tell a friend: "OK, so this is the world, this is where people will be able to walk. I just need to fill it because it's empty." It is absurdly empty. It feels dead. The holotape system is awful and irritating, and doesn't help at all to follow a quest path so you can immerse in the story . All of them feel random tapes. ALL OF THEM.

    CONS:
    Enemies. Enemies? What enemies? All I'm killing are scorched dudes. I killed 2 roaches and 2 mole rats. The rest scorched people.

    Paid content. You can actually pay MORE money to buy stuff (very **** in my opinion) for the game. Like how can you even do that? Where is your integrity? In my wallet? Keep looking then. I find this part extremely hilarious XD Like for real. You can PAY MORE MONEY. Who would do that?

    The no NPC system kills the vibe. To be honest with you, every time I play I keep thinking that I will find a hidden NPC. But it's not gonna happen so... f*ck that.

    PROS:
    Let me state that in NO WAY, the pros make the game any better. Not at all.

    Looks like mods for weapons and apparel are OKish.

    The C.A.M.P it has a loooooot of problems (just like in FO4). But I kind of like the building of your own base.

Enemies are coming in such big numbers, that you basically die every few minutes. You have to collect and produce stuff all the time - otherwise you'll die. It's just stressing you out. I think I will delete the game and replay Fallout 4 with some mods and additional DLCs. That's way more fun.    … Expand

The game glitching and shutting down twice after the 47GB upgrade was even more maddening. I've built my place I have my work benches and I can survive all within five hours of gameplay. I'm now left with no point in the game. My character could survive forever. Anytime I get matched with someone they just breath heavily into a mic and are also lost in the fact of what we're supposed to be doing. Not only that anytime I've ever died nobody has come to revive my character they just walk right by because theres zero rewards for them to save you. I would not ever purchase this game and I strongly want my money back. This game was merely a copy and paste of fall out 4 without the story and heart. Its a pure cash grab do not purchase this game...… Expand

    76 has come out after Fallout 4, and yet there is literally LESS in 76 than in its predecessor. I can't believe that this isn't a joke. This game feels like a hollow shell of a game. They've literally taken Fallout 4, removed everything that made it a good game, and sold it back to us as a AAA game with a $60 price tag. The game crashes ALL THE TIME, the bugs are actually ridiculous, the world is empty, quests are boring and uninspired, and I happen to run into another player once every 2-3 hours. Talk about an immersive multiplayer experience!

Nothing to do with the atmosphere of a fallout game, instead it feels empty and looks like a easy zero-effort cash grab. A $60 beta that will most likely be abandoned in 6 months

    5. They implemented a store for microtransactions that works better than the rest of the game. That tells you how much they cared about the main game.

    But then, you produce this. hype it up beyond belief, charge so much and for the menstrual gush that fallout seventy crap is.

    Even Video game companies are getting in on your hype.

    GAME invested in this double decker bus with an advertisement of the worst game since No Mans Sky launch game not No Mans Sky NEXT.

    How is it wrong? Simple you listened to the wrong people and this is where it gotcha a FALLOUT 4.5

    Major updates:

    Few more enemies (WHOOPEE DOO)

    1 new power Armour (WOW - I feel so warm inside)

    CO-OP playability (There is no sarcasm here... good job Bethesda, but you balls that up too)

    4 times bigger map (really, is that your biggest headliner,oh no wait)

    You can now use nuke codes ( And? so... ah, this is the headliner)

    someone used 3 at once and killed a server - give an idiot a handgun and well.... look what ya did.

    thas it, Kapuut, thas all she wrote...

    oh no, you can now build anywhere ( You had a building system in place and what did you do... ya screwed the pooch)

    DONT FORGET PEOPLE:

    These are the editions you can get your copy of Fallout Seventy crap

    Normal
    Tri (I don’t care anymore) centennial
    A Helmet (to pay this amount for this level of TURD, you must be an idiot)
    A PIPBOY you have to build (kill me now, what think tank thought... let’s get the idiots, I mean consumers have to build a 146 piece heap a balls)

    So in further detail:

    1. Old Engine used
    Fallout Seventy Crap utilises the “CREATION ENGINE”... forget about the bits and what it does, we all know what it does.

    The Creation Engine has been around since the PS3 (wait, what?)... The latest character creation tool Creation Engine is an updated heap a programming ass compared to the previous incarnation Gamebryo.

    You have not brought anything to the table that engages the consumer, you say the graphics and the new engine delivers more detail...really, have you seen how crap it looks on a 4k TV with a PS4 Pro... I have more detail in the turd that’s still clinging on to my rectum.

    2. Lazy programming

    Have you played your game? In the last 6 days my wife and I have given you 7 days worth of patience, 72 hours of gaming in the last week. My wife, being new to gaming... she was my wingman on Fallout 4 Awesome... now she wishes I get rabies and my balls fester in a corner due to the fact that she has been infected with playing such a horrendous game. 3. No NPC story telling Fallout 3 and 4 had immense and immersive storytelling, the quests and side quests were superb, the engagement and satisfaction from having “Cogsworth” “Nick Valentine” Paladin Danse”... so many stories. what do we have in Fallout Seventy Crap: Notes, Robot and Holotapes (Wow, really...the level of sarcasm is nuclear level....just wow, I bet you spent thousands working on such guph) 4. Graphic detailing poor at best As previously stated, walk up to a wall and check out the Atari 2600 detail of a wall or a piece of wood. Wow... I thought playing a DOS game was poor 5. Someone’s getting released from their job Over the last 6 days your share price has dropped, your position in the video game industry as a pinnacle of what is right and great in the video game industry has been rocked... by no one else but your own laziness. My wife told me to give you inspiration, to facilitate building you back up... I have as many gamer has invested in the tercentennial and for what...... a blister on the face of gaming humanity “Fallout Seventy Crap” You should have hit the ground running with the success of Fallout 4 Awesome. If Fallout 5 was going to take until PS5, people would have waited, and that’s what you don’t get... gamers will wait, if the game or brand is good enough. Instead... you deliver a un finished travesty. The fact that it does not offer the game play or experience by which it was advertised. No you are in no way shape or form in the position of No Mans Sky, but you have pushed so many gamers away by producing such poop. Who ever pointed the direction of Fallout Seventy Crap to go in “Sack them”, Their vision was blurred by their own vanity believing they were more than what they are. Should have stayed true to a single player game than to go multi player and suffer the slings and arrows of such degradation. Me P.s: I take no joy in what I have written, but this gift that I bought that was Fallout Seventy Crap...was an early Christmas present and the bulk of 8 weeks of saving my money so that she could play the tricentennial. you have failed us    … Expand

Seriously disappointed at Bethesda for absolutely exploiting the Fallout franchise. The actual story doesn't make sense either. It doesn't match with the lore.

While it runs fine on my overpriced system it is nothing to be happy about. Because this is an online only game, extensive mods that would likely fix or mask over the glaring issues mentioned before would be impossible. The fact that bugs from the inception of the 'Creation engine' are still present is baffling. Apparently the game physics being tied to the fps was patched the first day, and if so, it must've been a simple fix; why was this not fixed in earlier Bethesda titles then? I haven't had many game breaking bugs but have disconnected multiple times, losing progress each time. Overall this game is a disappointment and is definitely not worth even $20 at this time. I was expecting a Borderlands like experience which would've been fantastic. The backlash wouldn't have been so bad if it were a DLC for Fallout 4, though I understand that technical limitations make this impossible. I will see in a few years if this project will be fleshed out and improved or prematurely abandoned like Fallout 4. Looking forward, I have very low expectations of Bethesda's future releases.… Expand

    Fallout 76 can be fun. However, that fun is buried under an almost insurmountable mountain of glitches, bugs, and technical problems.

Instead, you can find countless references to the work that talented writers and designers made in past entries to theFallout 76 can be fun. However, that fun is buried under an almost insurmountable mountain of glitches, bugs, and technical problems. The intriguing stories and quirky characters that gave the Fallout franchise its distinct character and draw are nowhere to be found. Instead, you can find countless references to the work that talented writers and designers made in past entries to the series. Fallout 4 began a trend toward emphasizing the style and aesthetics of Fallout over its substance and writing. Fallout 76 takes this shift to new levels, by stripping away the core gameplay to encourage gameplay loops revolving around a base building mechanic that provides no benefit, sense of progress, or satisfaction to the player. There seems to be be very little thought towards progression at all in this game, as many of the main quests are bugged and unable to be completed. End game content is barely differentiated from early game content, which only reinforces that the game gives little incentive to reach the end game.

    Instead, the game seems to be designed to provide a convenient way to spend $5 of your hard earned money to buy one of seven digital outfits from the atomic shop for your soulless avatar to show off to a soulless world void of any functional or worthwhile gameplay. Most of the content of the game is locked behind a poorly designed game economy and difficult to discover plans and schematics. You can modify weapons/amor you find, but to craft them you must find plans that are given out randomly as quest rewards or from in-game vendors with woefully small inventories. The game seems like it was designed to encourage microtransactions, but at the last moment was changed to help reduce some of the backlash the game deserves entirely to receive.

    My final thoughts are that it is disgusting that this game was released in this dysfunctional and incomplete state. Baffling design choices plague the game, showing an unwillingness of Bethesds Game Studios to commit to anything more than a ground level, proof-of-concept for a monetzation scheme. I have spent 100 hours in this game, and the longer I play, the more I find wrong with it. I want to like this game, but there is just too much wrong or missing from it for it to be considered a $60, AAA release. I rate it 0 out of 10 because it's not even a complete game. It is a heartbreaking waste of time.    … Expand

    - 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.

This infuriated me, and because I am such a fan of Fallout, I was truly hoping they would make it right with at least a refund. Because they won't make it right, I was compelled to create a meta-critic account. So here it is. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.
    UPDATE: On 1/10/19 they are finally agreeing to refund my purchase. I'm going to stop boycotting Bethesda because I believe they finally see the light. This was a terrible experience but in the end, they did the right thing.    … Expand

    First, this game is so bad that the positive reviews it gets from the critics just shows me which critics take money for reviews. This game is bad across the board.

    I think a lot of people have covered why the game is bad, so I'm not gonna rehash the combat, story, interactions, bugs, and general lack luster game play.

I regret buying it, and I may touch back on it in a few months to see if they have decided to make a new game between now and then, but for now, I'll be spending my time playing better games. Or watching paint dry. Both are more fun.    … Expand

    If they tried to make a game that was worse than this I don;t think they could have done it. Not only that but I can't get a refund of this trash because I did a digital download. This will be the last dime Bethesda gets form me. So long old friend. It was fun while it lasted until you decided to squeeze $60 from me for an unready and poorly designed game.

    Gave them a pass on Fallout 4, I felt like they deserved it. But this? Nope, the unfair launch I got as a consumer to then see 50% discounts within 10 days is why this gets a 0. Pretty sure everyone else has pointed out the more legitimate gaming reasons that I don't need to mention again.

Even with friends it can get boring very fast when you realise there’s nothing but repetitive quest from terminals/robots/holotapes. Bethesda was always known for their buggy games and at times they were funny, however here with the game itself being a mess, the bugs/glitches are much more and they really standout. The graphics looks like they came from 2008 and that’s because they still use the out-dated game engine which in today’s high standards is unacceptable. There are also the other problems like carry capacity limited but I think I’ve said enough for today.… Expand

A year more of wok needs to be done before people can justify this cost. The store to buy extra cosmetics is a joke!!

    They took the worst parts of Fallout 4, bundled them, and sold them for $60 bucks.
    I will sum it up for you: There is little to no point in the game other than to collect junk (LITERALLY), scrap said junk, go find more junk, have no place to put your junk, and then kill monsters on your way to find more junk. I have no idea who in their right mind thought this was going to be enjoyable.    They took the worst parts of Fallout 4, bundled them, and sold them for $60 bucks.

    The story is mind numbing, and PVP is a joke. To top it off, you have to eat and drink every 10 minutes, ,which just turns into a chore having to deal with the terrible inventory system. I literally spend about 20% of the game in the Pip Boy Inventory screen. Who in their right-mind thought this game would be fun? Bethesda should be ashamed of themselves.    … Expand

    I wasted C$109.99 on this game, it one of the worst decisions I have EVER MADE.

    I expected way more from a AAA publisher like Bethesda.

    I would ask for a refund but I know I would not get one because of some excuse made to make as much money as possible, even if it means losing a loyal fan base they ripped off. Fallout 4 was great Fallout NV was one of the best games I have ever played, but this? Fallout 76 is what I would expect from a small indie developer, not Bethesda.

    From the lies told at the E3 event to the manipulative “B.E.T.A.” this is a mess.

    I honestly feel used like many others. This is a sad excuse for a Fallout game, I was so excited, now I want a refund.

    The Fallout franchise was one of prestige in the gaming community, with this release it has turned into the laughing stalk of games in 2018.

    I URGE YOU to spend your hard earned cash on an amazing game like Red Dead Redemption 2, my personal favorite of the year. If you are look for a good Fallout experience this is not that.

    This game was flawed from its conception, and with be known as the game that ruined the reputation of one of the best game studios of all time.

I never once had a fun time, there is nothing in this game, nothing makes you feel immersed. You’ll start off by running from one dead town to another dead town to listen to a tape. This is 90% of the time you’ll spend in the game if it’s not organizing your inventory of 10 slots. This game was a good idea, never once was it executed.

Not bad as old man Pete would say at the Last Plank in Far harbour. However, it's not the Super Mutant's that bring me out in a cold sweat, nor is it the Scorched, not even the anti-human bots, nope it's the bug's !
    Rad roaches nibbling my ankles is one thing but 'full on, boot you out of the game' Rad Bethesda bugs that always strike when you are low on ammo having got cornered by a posse of bad guys is the stuff of nightmares. You got it after painstakingly rebooting the game all you're dead enemies are... well, no longer dead - but you're ammo count definitely is.
    In order to build a decent future for yourself, you will need stuff. But you're store capacity is severely restricted, don't worry though, 'cause you have trader bots - that only have 200 caps - no matter where you shop on the map, it seems like they have a central banking plan - no cash so tough doo-doo.
    They buy for peanuts and sell for over inflated prices, the money you spend with them then suddenly disappears into the ether.
    The all singing and dancing build anywhere C.A.M.P is just a hotel for hobbo's unless you are lucky enough to find the schematics to build something from corrugated steel. You cannot build anything if so much as a beautifully rendered stone or twig is in your way, you cannot build near other buildings, you cannot build anywhere near you're team mates, you cannot build on bumpy ground, but there is little to no flat ground anywhere - the world got blowed up da!
    So anyway getting back to my level 49, T-60 Cammo power armour... I AM STUCK IN IT, I mean like totally stuck in it, I cannot therefore cook or boil water, I cannot craft anything only scrap everything. Bethesda said kill yourself!! wtf, no, not in real life. in the game dummy, but dat dont cure de problemo needa. It must have upset some other high level gamer's because they began nuking maps and then server hopping to do the same, unfortunately I was caught in the explosion on three consecutive maps, died and lost all my stuff including my house (Hobbo Hilton).
    So I started a new character and got myself up to level 24 only to be hit by a rather amorous ghoul who knocked me straight through the join in a wall - I found myself floating under the map for a moment before the game crashed again (tenth time in 48 hours) I rebooted only to find that I had lost all my stash, no little paper bag awaited me, and I just turned the game off and became a member of metacritic, this is my first post.    … Expand

    Fun at first, but so many broken elements to the game kills it for me. High-level areas have bullet sponge enemies that can take an armor penetrating round to the head (no armor) without dying. So many things broken in this game, I don't know where to start. Worst insult to this franchise I've ever seen. Save your money and get Fallout 3, New Vegas, or even Fallout 4.

    Of all the things that disappoint me about Fallout 76, the Bethesda apologists have to be the worst part. Anyone making a claim that any and every bad review of this game is coming from someone who hasn't played it is making a massive generalization and huge logical fallacy. But nothing they do can amount to the mistake Bethesda made when they decided to make this game.

    So utterly disappointing and flawed in every possible way… The first few hours, most of it can be ignored, and occasionally the flaws can be forgotten, but only briefly before they come storming back to the forefront. An awful, boring, empty, pointless experience. There is, however, a glimmer of hope. It's worth mentioning that there has already been a Bethesda title that was equally as unimpressive: The Elder Scrolls Online - but looking at it now, it has transformed into one of the best MMOs out there. There's always the hope the Fallout 76 develops the same way and becomes something special, but for now, that seems impossible. It's a world away from that.

    Fallout 76 isn't your typical fallout experience. You don't have NPCs or dialogue, but instead get real players that should fill this void - that ultimately fails to do so. It does some things right, but as of now I cannot recommend getting this game as long as it stays a broken and boring mess that it is right now.

    Fallout 76 is the series’ Freshman introduction into the world of online, multiplayer games. As a result, we are experiencing all of the awkwardness and clumsiness associated with that season of life. It is imperfect and a bit uncomfortable, but I see opportunity for Fallout 76 to be more than it presently it - to be a truly great, rich Fallout experience.
