    This game gets a lot of hate because its not a typical Fallout game, if you are mature enough to get pass that issue, its actually a great game to play alone with friends.

My score is intended as an 8.5, but I rounded up rather than down. People are giving this game extreme negative reviews without justification; this game is not a cash grab. The world is huge, new and beautiful, and full of things to do. I find it gets more and more addictive each time I play. Tonight I had to pull myself away from it simply because I have other things I've got to do. But if I could make Saturday afternoon last forever, I could play this thing nonstop.

    THIS GAME IS FOR PEOPLE WHO WOULD ENJOY a huge, post-nuclear yet strangely beautiful, colorful open world game, and who want to meander around the landscape, explore, engage in combat with creatures, craft, and climb the stats ladder, without much of a story (more than the request to go here or there to fight creatures or collect water now and then with no time pressure) to tether them to any particular in-game obligations.

    THIS GAME IS NOT FOR PEOPLE WHO DEMAND a significant story or who only enjoy turn-based VATS combat. The story in this game (at least so far as I've played) is about as significant as the story in MYST. In other words, it just exists in order to prompt you to explore. The VATS combat in this game is real-time and not useful most of the time. Though in my last few fights I have used it to great effect. A bunch of those floating butler-style robots went AWOL and decided to try and kill me. If it wasn't for VATS I would have died. So it can be used, mostly in close combat situations, but not when your target is a fair distance away.

    The major flaws of this game are: no NPCs, which has to change and I am sure will change; and 2 in PvP combat you suffer almost no damage. I understand wanting to do away with the threat of being killed every 2 seconds, but PvP combat could do more damage. Why not at least let it do as much damage as a roving mutant rat? There's plenty of them around who attack, so what's the difference?

    With those 2 nipicks out of the way, let me say that though I am a big retro point-and-click adventure fan (Tex Murphy; Broken Sword), I find this game extraordinary addictive, way more than any past Fallout game and way more than Red Dead Redemption 2. It's beautiful and plays very smoothly. Some complain about the guns, but this is an RPG. The guns fire in a way commensurate with your various skills and the specs of the weapon. You can't just rapid fire a weapon when your associated skills are low. Fallout 76 differs from past Fallout games in that, so far, the plot is thin. Mostly it exists as an excuse to get you to meander through the landscape, which is more beautiful than any other Fallout game, and more beautiful than Red Dead 2 (which I compare simply because it is the other game I am playing at the moment; although Red Dead 2 has the best animals and most amazing horses and horse animations I have ever seen), forage, defend yourself from random mutant creatures, craft, occasionally team up with other players, and explore. But that just happens to be exactly what I was looking for.

    I love story-intense games, but I also love this type of game where I am encouraged to explore. Story intense games make me so concerned about following the plot, I don't end up exploring much, and Red Dead Redemption 2 will even end your mission and put you back to a checkpoint if you stray to far from a mission area. Fallout 76 does not do this. I'll play an earlier Fallout game or Red Dead Redemption 2 for my plot and story fix and Fallout 76 for when I just want to explore unfettered, not tied down by any sense of obligation to visit a particular store, talk to a particular NPC, or hunt down a particular outlaw, to move a plot forward. FYI there are no NPCs in Fallout 76, unless you can call attacking zombies and mutant dogs NPCs. All quests are given through holo-tapes, notes, etc. I do not think that was a good decision, and it is the only reason I gave this incredibly addictive game an 8.5 (I rounded up), rather than a 10. I suspect Bethesda will catch wise and add downloadable content for free with NPCs and better quests. But even as is, Fallout 76 for me has been like eating a giant bottomless can of Pringles - after each creature I kill or each area I discover I want just one more, and end up creeping into bed at 2AM next to my wife hoping not to wake her up (so I can claim the next morning that I made it to bed by midnight).    … Expand

    First things first. The low ratings this game has received are to be taken for what they are "Tantrum Reviews". It's idiotic to give this game anything 6 or below regardless of what your preconceived notions about what the game should be like. People giving the game a zero are like the guy in the video having a tantrum because he only go stop credit for returning the game.

People giving the game a zero are like the guy in the video having a tantrum because he only go stop credit for returning the game.

    The moral of the story is to read the content of the reviews rather than looking at the score.

    I don't write many reviews but when I saw Fallout 76 was getting inundated with 0's and 1's I had to set the record straight with an honest review to oppose the punitive Tantrum Reviews. The eagle eyed amoung you might notice that I have given games a zero before but that's only because they were completely unplayable and/or the game description said the game was something that it wasn't.

    Personally, I find the game to be amazing. I love the fact that I can play Fallout with friends. I've been dying for that for a very long time. The entire system is very familiar from Fallout 4 so the learning curve is very shallow for people who have played that game. I do miss the human NPC's sometimes but only just.

    If you liked Fallout 4 there's just no reason to not love Fallout 76. Did I mention you get to play a Fallout game with friends??????

    The good:

    The graphics are amazing with stunning textures.
    As usual, the character animations are nearly flawless.
    The quests are typical Fallout quests which is good because I like those quests.
    It's very stable for only a few days out of release.
    The anti-griefing measures seem to be working well.

    Cons:
    No human NPCs can be a little disconcerting.
    I had a few lost connections on day 1. None since then.    … Expand

Having no HUMAN NPCs is not that bad, and it servers an interesting plotline and strongly explains what happens to them within the game itself.

    This game doesn't have a tour guide and I feel Bethesda might've been received better if there was hand holding. What it does is, gives you general quest guides to let you find and figure it out on your own. All the thing you find to do, you'll find through exploration and discovering it yourself. Even hidden mechanics to discover.

    There is a ton of things to do. Its just a matter of exploring and discovering the world.

    The complaint about the lack of NPC's.. I get it, i agree it is missing some of that NPC color in lieu of having any other human being the colorful real life people you interact with. So far this hasn't been much of a negative. I do miss the NPC color, even Preston Garvey, but the genuinely decent community of people I've encounter have made up for it.

    Overall, this game is phenomenal, but its not a guided tour. They're plopping you down in an arcade, you just have to go out and find what you want play and have fun with it.    … Expand

    I played throughout all the Beta sessions on PS4, also stayed up all night to play it during release, have +30 hours in total. Played mostly solo and for about 7 hours partied up with other players who I stumbled into randomly.

    The game is excellent if you have a bit of fantasy, allowing you to create your own adventure. I could never get into Fallout 4 as I found its premise and plot quite bland, but I love other Bethesda games, such as Fallout New Vegas, TES: Morrowind and TES: Skyrim.
    I can understand how the concern of the lack of NPCs can be alerting, but so far the story was very engaging: some of stories were very emotional and thought-provoking.

    PVP is surprisingly fun - had a lot of interesting encounters with other players, which ended up becoming a shootouts for half an hour. The only thing I would change about it is the revenge mechanic, infinitely respawning on your opponent is silly.

    Graphics is great for PS4, being a multiplayer game I did not expect the graphics to be any better, otherwise the server would not be able to handle it. Freezes do happen every now and then but do not require a restart.

    Overall I believe FO 76 has a promising future, can't wait to see what Bethesda has in store for it. See you all in the Wasteland!    … Expand

    The biggest issue I have with this game is that it is, basically, Fallout 4. This isn't really a problem since FO4 was a fantastic game. I would have liked to see something new added though, to be honest, I can't really think of what that would be. This is also a plus, as unlike Elder Scrolls Online, there is no mistaking that FO76 is a modern Fallout game. (Full disclosure, I also enjoy TESO).

    Now are there some flaws yes, Server issues on day one were to be expected and I had a few mobs disappear on me before I could loot them. But overall I have had no major game breaking bugs in my play.

    The game feels like two different games and that's not a bad thing. The solo player experience feels like Fo4, you are exploring buildings reading notes. And as this is the closest to the bomb drops we can see almost like a snapshot in time. It's really interesting to explore and discover some of these personal stories.
    When playing in a team things change as you don't have the luxury of exploring every nook and cranny, reading every note (unless your partner is also a completionist) but it adds another aspect to the game which changes it. When solo a herd of rad scorpions is something you might avoid. but in a team you get cocky and run in.

    Base building is back and vastly improved. You can now build wherever you want and it feels much better. I lost hours tweaking my cabin, modifying things building a garden. It's feels like a natural addition in this game vs the pushed mechanic (that i mostly ignored) from Fallout 4.

    the TL-DR: It's like Fallout 4, If you enjoyed that you will enjoy this. IF you didn't it's probably not the game for you. The game doesn't deserve the hate the trolls are tossing at it. 90% of them haven't even played the game.    … Expand

For those wondering what to expect, think of Fallout 4 with improved visuals (still behind other current AAA games) add multiplayer (upto 16 players per server) and a darker universe (some dark stories in this iteration)

    Whats new or back;
    Gun condition and ammo crafting, you cannot sell or dismantle ammo you already have which is a shame but the low cost of making ammo makes is not to bad, just be careful not to make too much as ammo has weight and you have at this time a limit to your stash size (more on this later)

    SPECIAL, now you start at 1 for each stat and grow as you play and level up, every time you level until level 50 you get 1 new SPECIAL attribute to assign as you see fit.

    PERK CARS, this new system is somewhat confusing until you start messing with it and it becomes quite clear and easy, Want to play a snipper today and a melee brawler tomorrow? you can now do that.

    Semi-Survival, You need to stay fed and hydrated, but nowhere near as hardcore as Fallout 4 Survival, you can still get sick and need to cure which add to the survival aspect of the game,

    Inventory
    I assume they did these changes for server stability but I honestly am just guessing.
    The Bad: You have a player inventory which is the same as you are used to, but now you have a limited stash, currently this stash amount is 400lb which at first doesn't look like enough, and you are probably right, but they are perk cards to combat this to make it less a pain (the pain is still there), some decrease your junk wright down 90%, some do the same for your guns/armor/meds.
    During the BETA I never kept my stash over 200lb selling stuff to vendors when I went over or with items I had an excess of.
    The Good: your stash is linked to chest all over the map, this is not the most realistic but it is very convenient when needed.

    Base Building: you can build your base almost anywhere albeit not to close to someone else or to close to a town, as you level up your base size grows and you can add more to it every time.

    Plans: Now you dont come out of the vault just knowing have to build a pipe pistol, you need to find the plans to build it, same goes for gun and armor mods, instead you can either find the plans to it or you learn them over time by dismantling guns and armor.

    I am glad there is finally a Fallout game I can play with a friend and the changes they made are all positive in my book except maybe the limited stash size.

    There is graphical bugs, but nothing even close to game breaking. Keep in mind this game just released a BETA for the game before it even launched ...problems were expected. I am personally happy about how quickly some of the problems were resolved.

    There were major stability improvements since beta offering a much smoother gameplay day one. I’m looking forward to the planned updates that will add an even more enjoyable experience.

    As a final note, I strongly dislike MMO; have tried many, but played few. Fallout 76 plays different than every MMO that I’ve seen or played. It keeps true to fallout feel, while throwing a little BioShock story telling into it. The game has a wonderful mix of new and old mechanics that will bring a refreshing experience to present and future.    … Expand

    This game is far better than many of the reviews on here would have you believe. There's a lot to address, but for the moment I'll lead with this:

    This game is Fallout, and this game is always online. If that sits well with you immediately, you'll love the game. If that immediately makes you cringe, you will probably not like this game.

    If that sits well with you immediately, you'll love the game. If that immediately makes you cringe, you will probably not like this game. And if that makes you vaguely uncomfortable, but you're not sure why - give it a whirl and you'll probably find that it's a good experience.

    The online nature of the game means that you'll find other real people in the world. I've found a number, and they've always added to my experience, however they chose to interact with me. My time in this game has been enriched by the people I've found, and we've only had the game for a couple of weeks now.

    This game is also a Fallout game. There is immersive storytelling, a dark and interesting world, and a lot of fun, punchy gameplay. I find the contextual storytelling in this to be up there with the best games in the fallout series, and I have been constantly surprised at how well the writers can get me to emotionally invest in characters with only a few emails or a note left behind when they died.

    For the rest, please play the game before judging it harshly. Stash size limits, an empty world, or any of the other WORST THINGS EVER all tend to fade into the background in the face of the fun experience of playing the actual game.    … Expand

    A blast with friends in an immersive world and one of the best-designed environments I've ever seen in a Fallout game. It successfully translates that singleplayer fallout experience to a multiplayer format. It is a beautiful game.

    Despite Bethesda's reputation for bugs and some valid issues that need to be addressed, this game does have some promise. It may not be anything like the typical singleplayer Fallout's, but it was never intended to be. That is what Fallout 5 is supposed to be for whenever that happens. Until then, I'm going to enjoy this refreshing take on a Fallout spin-off with my friends or even just solo.    … Expand

The isolation provided by no NPCs adds to the eerie feeling of the game. No friendly faces to wish you luck on your quest, no nice guy telling you exactly where to go and what to expect. There are bugs in the game but that is absolutely to be expected in an open world Bethesda game, and the differences between the beta and now are immense as far as my experience has gone. If you love open world small scale mulit-player, i highly recommend it, even if you weren't a fan of the other fallout games like myself.… Expand

Every single location my buds and I have visited so far has had an interesting story to tell. Emotional holo-tapes (some several minutes long), notes, hand-written journals, terminal logs, and sentient robots all shed light on what life was like for past, pre-war inhabitants. Many times, their grim stories will even kick off a variety of small quests. It's a far cry from other survival games like Rust, Conan Exiles, DayZ, and Ark Survival that don't even HAVE quests, let alone much backstory. From what I've seen of the survival genre, the sole fact that FO76 is NOT Early Access already has me hooked.

    Overall, aside from a few graphical bugs I've encountered, I've had a ton of fun surviving, exploring, fighting different enemies, building my own mini-base, and uncovering crazy secrets on the map. Even though it's not your traditional single-player Fallout RPG, the amount of content and systems at play in FO76 is staggering for an online survival MMO and can keep you and your friends occupied for weeks. If you're into PvE and Roleplay the West Virginia hills are vast and filled with NPC monsters for hunting and looting. If you're into PvP, there are always good bounties waiting on Hunter/Hunted Station radio.

    Some sage advice from an old arcade player, if you're ever not sure whether a modern game is worth it's full price, rate it at $1 an hour. If you can get 60 hours of game-play from a $60 retail game, it's well worth it in my old-school, coin-operated book.    … Expand

    There's so much to do and see in this wasteland and I've had a great time exploring it thus far. Bethesda was brilliant in the way they approached the PvP concept. You don't have to engage if you don't want to. And you can go for it if you do. And unlike ESO, it seems you can play the totality of the game solo. I'm really happy about that.

    I also love the CAMP system; I enjoyed the settlement building in FO4 as well. I hope they will work on the mechanics of the CAMP system though, as it's really difficult to relocate a blueprint unless you have a minimal 1st floor foundation.

    All in all, I love this game so far and am eager to play more. Sure, there are a few bugs I've experienced, but nothing big. Looking forward to seeing how this online community evolves. Highly recommend.    … Expand

    I wrote this review because I saw all the wrong information about the game, and I wanted to clear it up.

    The world is alive?

    While you usually have open city's to explore, now everyone is dead or left, and you can figure out why. There are ''Survivor strory's''. Those are holotapes on dead body's that if you listen too, you can figure out some easter eggs.

    For example, one guy died while being locked up in a locker. After I heard him scream for a few seconds. After that he told the guys the location of his heritage. The guys, who had no interest in the money (There is a story about that too I think) never picked it up so after listing to the holotape a couple of times I found myself a new gun and some caps.

    There are still a lot of stories hidden in terminals, holotapes or speakers and I enjoy them alot.

    I find the world to be quite nice to explore, there are a few easy areas that I'm trying to explore right now, and a few really hard ones that I haven't been able to discover.

    Bugs?
    After playing 10 hours I haven't been able to find any bugs.

    Load times?
    The game loads way faster than skyrim after entering a building and leaving it since it loads the openworld in your RAM.

    Pvp?
    It is possible, but it is hard to kill somebody if he doesn't shoot back since it is kinda ''Dual'' focused. Which I like, the game isn't about killing and greefing other players, but about exploring it. (for me atleast)

    If you really want PVP, it is also possible to get a toggle a pvp event where you're hunted by a player, but you have to hunt another player.

    Interacting with players?
    Since I can only tell you about my interactions, I will.
    I found multiple people I teamed up with, you can see them on the map, and most people are really friendly and love doing quest/hard monsters together.

    In 10 hours I had 1 lvl 5 guy that tried to kill me, which ended in a shootout between both of us.

    Micro transaction?
    There are a few microtransaction (purely cosmetics) that you can buy with points that you get from achievements (like killing 76 ghouls)

    Why I like it?
    I love roaming around, exploring new places and finding exotic weapons and new plans to build a nicer place for my own.

    Why I wrote this review?
    I was annoyed by the fact that after Bethesda announced and released a non-pvp focused, online Fallout game that had no NPC's, I found myself reading reviews that said they hated the game because:

    It was online
    It had barely any pvp
    It had no NPC's

    TLDR: The game is what they told us, and I like it! It isn't for everybody, but if you want to buy it, go check out some YouTuber that isn't biased from the start, or log onto twitch and see if anybody is streaming it. Go look for yourself :)    … Expand

    Do not believe most of these reviews. Most are an attempt to express anger that 76 is not the game they wanted it to be. It's fine to not like a game, it's another to try and bomb it because you're unhappy about what it is.

    Now the actual.

    The Bad:
    1) Yes, there are bugs.
    2) Yes, the graphics aren't top of the line
    3) Yes, there are some performance issues.

    The Good:
    1) Insanely fun with friends.
    2) If you enjoyed the mechanics of Fallout 4, you should love this (and I didn't play it, but I know they're largely similar)
    3) Lots to do. The lack of human NPCs is not a big deal. There are still NPCs, there are still a ton of quests and other things to do.
    4) While griefing will certainly be possible, their attempts to mitigate it are pretty good. They seem to have looked at other games griefing issues, and tried to implement similar solutions.

    I see people complaining about things like getting hungry and thirsty. My response is, they told you that would be the case. Now yes I think the rates should be slowed. But you can also get perk cards to help with that. Ultimately staying hydrated and fed is not that hard. But if you didn't want the survival aspect, you shouldn't have bought the game. It was not a secret.

    For those complaining about lack of ammo, they either completely suck at aiming or aren't looking. I have over a hundred rounds of each type of ammo even though I primarily only use one type. You find plenty. Plus you can craft it.

    For the microtransactions, again, don't buy them then. They don't impact gameplay. And they said they'd be there. I'm totally fine with cosmetic MTXs. Which is all they have. No XP boosts. No loot boxes. The most "gameplay impacting" things they sell are emotes.

    For the complaint about microphones, you can turn it off. Yes it'd be nice if that could be improved. But just turn it off and you're fine. You can also just mute individual players instead of everyone. I personally set it to team. Can't hear anyone I'm not in a team with.

    Complaining that this game is Fallout with multiplayer and you didn't want it, but still bought it (or probably didn't and are just whining about it), is ridiculous. For people like myself, I'm insanely happy the game is out. I wanted to play FO4 but didn't since it didn't have co-op. And I'm not good in games like that where I'm just running around by myself. So now me and my friends are having a blast in it.

    Yeah there are occasional frame rate hitches. But overall last night the game was solid. If you don't like the premise, don't buy it. If you do, you'll have a lot of fun in it.    … Expand

I've played all of them except Brotherhood, and I started with them as a child. I've liked every one. I do enjoy 76 so far, but for slightly different reasons than the last games.

    So far, Fallout games have been about exploration, marked and unmarked locations to discover and explore, a story to experience as you go through the world, side quests that usually have some humor or a bit of information about the larger world to add to our understanding of the setting. Well, 76 does have all of these things. 76 manages to do a lot of these things that we expect from a Fallout title. The thing it does not do, that (most) of the previous titles did have, is player choice in the narrative, and NPC interactions.

    The difference between this and previous games is that all of the NPC's we would normally talk with, died shortly before the player shows up. We find the remains of battles and we find their bodies and such. The plot is discovering why and how, so we won't go into that, but the point is that the normal NPC interaction that people are used to in these games is missing. We do most of the lore discovery, and most of the storytelling, is done through notes and terminals and holotape recordings. Which is fine for learning about the world, and it's adequate for telling us information, and there have already been a few holotapes that were dramatic and conveyed emotion to me, but I understand the criticism that many people have. It's adequate for conveying storytelling, but it's not that interaction that people are used to. They want to talk to people. It's a bit unfortunate that a lot of the other reviews are very hard on the game and this seems to be the most common reason. Bethesda said from the start that they want to roll with the idea that every human you come across is another actual human player. This was the game's pitch, it's what made it unique. Someone at the company had this idea and they rolled with it. This was clear from the start, so a lot of these reviews that seem to be disappointed by the lack of NPC's is a bit perplexing.

    It's also worth noting, on the lack of NPC issue, that there is more voice acting and recorded dialogue for this game than every other game combined. Look it up on google, it's a fact. So it's not that there just isn't any voice acting or things to learn from people. It's just that the people are all dead, and leaving their diaries for the player to discover. It's not actually all that much different than an NPC going on a longwinded story of his recent events. One of the criticisms of New Vegas is that NPC's will occasionally stand there and go on and on spilling information to the player. It's not that different in cases like this.

    The positive aspects about the game are that it has many new enemy types, a map 4 times larger than 4's map, more voice acted recorded dialogue than the previous games, and the sidequests are just as involved as the previous games. The storytelling is done through discovery, so the player is more like an investigator after the fact, rather than in the middle of events, but the tone this sets up is unique and works.

    It's missing a couple things though, so I wish I could give it an 8.5 instead of 9. The PC version should allow for DoF adjusting, widescreen support, Push To Talk, rendering distance options, and other quality-of-life options that PC players are used to that scale with the strength of their machine, and aren't uniform like on consoles.

    Overall, the game offers many of the things we expect from Bethesda's Fallouts. Marked and unmarked locations to explore, some interesting quests, discovering lore about the setting, etc. It ends up being a very different experience than the other Fallouts, because you are an investigator after the events, but this is just a different tone of game. I've been enjoying it so far, and I understand that it's a very different tone than most other Fallout games. I think at the end of the day, whether you like it or not mostly hinges on whether or not you mind that you're coming by after the events and discovering what happened or if you want to be in the middle of them. This tone is a lot different and might not be for everyone.    … Expand

I'm over 30 hours in, level 35, and there's still tons of content, areas to explore, and story to dig into. So to make things simple, I'll dig into what this game offers and what it lacks. Also as a side note, I don't factor in bugs with my reviews, as I'm rating the game based off of fun factor, as that's what people play games for.

    Pros of Fallout 76 (Consider this all to be for unmodded Fallout)
    The best character customization Fallout has ever had. (Layered armor/clothing)

    The best weapon/armor crafting

    The simplest survival mechanics, balance between eating, drinking, and radiation

    The largest most diverse world

    The largest variety of enemies

    The most weapons

    The best shooting (though admittedly, Fallout shooting is not amazing)

    More perks than Fallout has ever had.

    True perk builds. I've seen tons of perks to improve shotguns, pistols, melee weapons, big guns, laser weapons, automatic rifles, automatic pistols, and more. And yes, I mean more than Fallout 3, NV, or 4 had combined. If you want to try a build, it's likely in the game. All weapon types finally seem viable.

    Multiple builds per character thanks to the way that perk cards work. You don't need to make a new character if your build ends up with something that you don't care for. You can simply swap the card to suit your needs, assuming you have the proper card.

    Great soundtrack. I've heard songs from Fallout 3 as well as many new tracks put into the game. The ambient world music is amazing as well, and helps to capture the vibe of the different biomes. Boss creatures have their own music as well which really adds to the action when they show up.

    Unrestricted player trading. This is balanced by the fact that weapons and armor have levels to keep them in check. They also break, so being equipped with top tier gear only matters if you can maintain it. The best part about this though, is that you can sell things to anyone or you can just drop them. It keeps groups organized and ready when you have a good balance of food and ammo. It helps if you have a steady team where one person does the crafting/repairs so that you can build your character differently. This goes more into reinforcing the team aspect of the game which many games nowadays try to include and fail miserably.

    Attention to small details. Most of your story comes from notes and terminals, so if you're the type to read those things, this game has a ton of depth.

    Cons of Fallout 76 (Some of these are subjective. The PvP is not)
    PvP is unrewarding garbage. The mechanics to enter PvP are terrible and serve as a major annoyance. Being able to see everyone on the map invites griefing, and there's essentially no reward for killing other players or destroying their property. There's no satisfaction whatsoever in getting a high bounty, and because when you're wanted, everyone can find you, there's all risk. That said, there is a dedicated PvP which is better, as everyone there has the same intention and you don't find yourself getting punished by systems that shouldn't be in play. This stops any player from living the fantasy of being a wasteland raider who ambushes and kills unsuspecting people.

    While there are NPCs, they're all robots or super mutants. This isn't inherently bad, but it makes the characters you encounter less surprising. They do have unique voices, but this also means that there are no real settlements other than those made by players for players, and no one is going to congregate while the game is new and full of things to do and find.
    Lack of nonhuman NPCs means that there are no Raiders as well. This is where I start deducting from the game's score. If the PvP worked fine it wouldn't be an issue, but because it doesn't, the wasteland feels less immersive when you know you'll never run into raiders trying to own all they can by force.

    A few of the perk setups are badly designed. Most perks stack in the game, but Lockpicking and Hacking don't. Meaning that there's close to no chance that you'll be unlocking max level anything before hitting endgame. You can't just stack multiple of the same for these two cards to improve at it and that leaves it fully to RNG.

    The respawn system. Respawning in this game really detracts from the danger of the wastes. When you die you can just come back nearby until all the enemies are dead. Fallout with a lack of gameovers makes things feel pretty easy and that's a turn off to a lot of people. This bothers me most in PvP however, as I can kill a wanted player and he can spawn back, until I run out of healing items.

    The only reason people hate on this game is because it has Fallout in the title.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Yes, the game is laggy. Yes, I get disconnected. But that doesn't ruin the fact that it is a good game. Oh no! No NPC's? Who cares!? Yes, they add more depth, but it makes sense in this case. It's only 25 years after the bombs dropped, AND there is the threat of the Scorched, which you need to nuke to defeat. This game is still fun, and because of that, this game deserves less hate. People keep talking about "Oh, it's buggy" and "Oh, it crashes". 1: It is not buggy and 2: It does not crash. Maybe on PS4 and Xbox it's different, but I enjoy playing this game. People can hate on it has much as they like, but I won't care. If I enjoy it, I will play it!… Expand

    Entirely reasonable Fallout entry. A lack of short-scripted human NPC's isn't a problem, many quests in previous games were driven from terminal entries and holotapes. It just means that instead of hammering "next" on the NPC speech until you get to a speech check / option, you have to actually read, or listen.

    Don't like multiplayer? Well, if you just loiter in the "tutorial" area that you emerge in, yes, you'll be swamped with other people. Wander off across the map and the chances of finding other people drops sharply.

    If you weren't into the base-building aspect of FO4, you probably wont be keen on FO76.

    It's also worth adding that a number of reviews, be them here, amazon or otherwise, seem to be reviewing the BETA. If you're going to review a game, wait until it's fully released at least.    … Expand

The bottom line is, don’t listen to the negative critics on this one. Probably about 60% of them have never even played it, and the other 40% who did went into the experience just to look for reasons to tear it down. Give this game a try!

    There's simply so much to do, and it plays like a higher quality version of Fallout 4, but with random interactions with real people that often make for hilarious events. The quests are pretty fun, some more than others. I think the daily missions are a great way to break away from exploration or questing if you want immediate, intense gun fighting and action. I only see these expanding and increasing as Bethesda updates the game.

    The questing is pretty standard, and comparing it to something like Destiny 2, the Fallout narratives are much more enthralling, and the Overseer in this game is a compelling and likable character. The balance of her decisions feels authentic, and I feel the writers did a great job on the main story line in particular. The side quests and random daily events are a lot of fun, and there's probably about ~40 of them so i haven't repeated any, except for a few really challenging and fun ones (Defecding the BoS fort from Scorch Beasts). Overall, the removal of human NPC's has had somewhat a positive effect as I hated the chat functions of fallout 4. In 76, the narrative progresses as you play over holotapes, and I think this makes for more of an action oriented game, with less breaks from playing to sit and talk to sometimes boring characters. The robots are also somewhat funny, especially the police bots in Watoga.

    The combat is a mix of low level trash mobs that are pretty easy to clear, to more mid level mobs that can quickly swarm you, to the scorch beasts, which are a challenge. I think there can be some AI improvements on the scorched and super mutants to make them more of a challenge, as they seem pretty easy, whereas scorch beasts are extremely hard especially in groups. If more than 1 scorch beast attacks you, be prepared to pop 10+ stims and run away just to survive. I'd like to see some middle tier enemies between scorch/mutants and scorch beasts.

    The new VATS system is perfect for a real-time multiplayer game. I cant think of any other way they could have done it, and for really fast moving, small enemies, it takes the hassle out of playing.

    I really have enjoyed the interactions with other players. Multiplayer has mostly been co-op, but there is a PvP radio station that when you tune in, makes it more full-on PvP without the "first to fire" system.

    There are small issues here and there, such a visual bugs, etc, but this is such a massive game with so much going on, I have been shocked by how high quality every inch of this game is, from the physics to the textures, etc. Nothing game breaking at all.

    The multiplayer is a great addition to what is an awesome stand-alone Fallout game. Being able to jump into activities with friends when they're on is great. Being able to play on your own or with randoms when your friends are not online is also great.

    The crafting and unlock system really gives the player a feeling of progression, having to scrap many different similar weapons to really build a full crafting recipe library.
    The weapon choices are great, and I am loving the lever-action rifles!

    Overall, this is just about everything I want in a MP Fallout game, and I'm excited to see what new features and content they add. I would like a match-based PvP system, I think that would be cool.    … Expand

So here goes:

    Graphics/Visuals:
    With Bethesda using their own engine to power the game, we can all agree that it's nothing compared to UE4. But they still is able to take what they have and bring about a vibrant lively world that is full of wonder/mystery while being full of unknown dangers. Now certain games are able to be detailed down to a single particle or thread through the power of UE4. But the environments are still full of details that give the game a rustic and gritty feel to it that should be expected in the Fallout universe.

    Sounds/Effects:
    Previous games in the Fallout franchise have had sounds that felt a bit overplayed or too generic for my personal preference, but the sounds of gunfire in Fallout 4 and this game have become more exciting and realistic. While wearing headphones, the sound of the gunshots up close can surprise me or when I hear gunfire in the distance, it gives a great feel of immersion in the game. Other sounds such as the haunting hiss of the Scorched or the terrifying roar of the Schorchbeast can give you a feeling of terror or excitement. Some sounds in the game regarding, in example, objects moving around can sometimes be made when nothing is moving (and maybe that is a bug that is going to be fixed at some point) can sometimes throw you off, but there's still more accuracy in the sounds of the game. When you're in a building or house and you start to hear the creaking of piping in the building or floor boards give the feeling of how the setting is supposed to be; nothing more than rotting/rusting buildings that have been abandoned for decades. It makes you really feel like the place is abandoned and gives off a certain atmosphere to the setting.

    Mechanics:
    This one is going to be a beast to write. The mechanics do have the influence from Fallout 4. And in some cases that's okay. While in others, it can be a bit inconvenient. Fallout 76 brings back the mechanics for things such as moving about the world, using a weapon, and even building structures around your C.A.M.P. This game brings back some of those mechanics while expanding on them with the survival aspects, the new VATS, and many more. Using my weapons, navigating through the menus feels crisp and normal as any game should feel, but sometimes the controls can lag a little (and maybe that has to do with the connectivity/stability, but we'll get into that). At times, I would be aiming down my sights to fire at an enemy, but the game doesn't immediately respond when I release the aim button. Another mechanic that could use work, and I know everyone that has played will agree, is the C.A.M.P. inventory space. 400 may seem like a good number at first, but will become smaller and smaller the further you progress in the game. Now, I'm not saying this should be an infinite amount, but I would like to see Bethesda change this number to a higher digit say like 1,000. That seems more reasonable when you're trying to build your home in the wasteland. Plus, it allows the player to store certain items for a later time, or when they become high enough level to use it. I also feel that the vendors should not be asking so much for an item when they will only give you a small portion of caps in return. In example. I saw a missile launcher being sold for 158 caps at the vendor, but only offered me 20 caps when I sold it to the vendor robot. The missile launcher was in a better condition than what was being sold, and I felt like I was at Gamestop trying to sell a game back to them. Another mechanic is the NPC deal. While others believe this was a terrible idea, I still felt it was a good idea. Todd Howard and Bethesda both promised us a game that had every human being you meet be a real person, and they made good on that promise. At the time it was announced, everyone cheered for the idea. Where is all that excitement now? I like that everyone I meet is a real person. When I come across someone, I'm not sure whether that person is going to try to kill me, needs help with something, or just wants to trade items. And that's what this game is supposed to do is give you that bit of mystery instead of everyone outside a city is trying to kill you. And trading with players is great. Being able to decide what to sell and how much to sell it for really gives that barter feeling.

    Connectivity/Stability:
    Now I know that this game has been pretty buggy to some of you while others don't experience as many bugs. That's just how it goes with games these days. Report the bugs, and hope they get fixed. Don't let it ruin your experience. And the servers are being worked on, people. This is Bethesda's first multiplayer game, and they're doing pretty good with it. Be patient.

    Ending with this, I think the game is a lot of fun. With it's many faults, it still has many great things about it. I will still enjoy playing the game.    … Expand

    Fallout 76 is super fun with friends and almost as good alone. In 76 you are more free than ever.
    To me the lack of human NPC's just makes the story better and the robots are full of witty remarks and holotapes are full of great stories.

    The photomode is a blast with friends.

    A few hiccups launchwise, besides that - 50+ hours in im still having a great time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Level 36, stealth sniper:

    After completing a quest which involved a gunfight with dozens of molemen (mutated former miners) in a burnt out town who just came at me with waves of shotguns, missile launchers and big freaking metal claws - I got jumped by supermutants on the road. Survived, barely. Custom modded sniper rifle broken, shotgun out of ammo. I literally have a pistol and a freaking spear as my only decent weapons left. However, I had a huge amount of junk of all kinds, food (as soon as I could cook it) and water ( liquor quenches thirst in W. Virginia). So! I camp out at a defensible spot and, piece by piece, build a high defensible 18th century block fort with turrets in the gun ports and amenities to sleep, cook and repair my gear. Another player, level 17 shows up. We wave, we chat. He wants to adventure together and I shake my head. I’m doing single player for the survival aspect and to not gun blaze through the story elements. I give him a fusion core and some goodies. “I want your gun and your gas mask.” The little jerk shoots me in the leg and we go into pvp! @^)@&$:$. My double barreled shotgun and the guns on my fort take care of him each time he tries to come from a different angle. Eventually, he got bored of dying and took off. Finally, I was about to have some peace to cook my soup and fix my sniper rifle when I heard the screech of that giant mutated bat / dragon Scorchbeast. I try to fast travel somewhere away but I am still overencumbered. In the process, I saw on my map a level 50 murderer player headed directly my way. I duck and cover inside my fort and prepare to die. Crouching in the dark with my double barreled shotgun in my trembling fingers, I listen to the earth shake and things explode as the murderer singlehandedly duels the Scorchbeast outside my fort. With the first rays of morning light, I cautiously climb out of my fort. I take a badass selfie picture with the dead Scorchbeast. Soon, it will be time to hit the roads again.

People teaming up, helping each other, and just generally being cool and having fun together. There are bugs, and there are a few issues, and no, it’s not as pretty as RDR2, but it’s good at whT it does. To anyone thinking about getting 76 I’ll say 1. Know what you are buying, this isn’t fallout 5. It’s something new and different than regular fallout, but that’s not a bad thing as long as you know what you are getting. 2. Ignore the hate. Half the people complaining are holding up new Vegas as the gold standard, well, new Vegas was ripped a new one in reviews when it came out too. 3. Realize before going in that it doesn’t force feed the story to you, you aren’t looking for someone you lost, or trying to find some lost tech. You have to go looking for the story, but it is there. So don’t play for a few hours and then hop on here and say that there is “nothing to do”. I’ve played about 80 hours or so now and I have hardly scratched the surface.… Expand

    Producing Video Games costs a lot of money and manpower. For Companies a failure in Sales is a big risk, especially for big ones. As a consequence big Publishers tend to be very conservative. I find this highly annoying. This years Title looks, feels and plays like that from last year. Experiments are spares. I find a lot of games plain boring. “Been there, done that.”

    Let’s take a look at Red Dead Redemption 2. The Mission Design hasn’t evolved much since GTA III. And most of the time - forgive me - you look at your horses ass. Sounds fun? Duh…

    I think RDR2 is as highly overrated as F76 is underrated. For a lot of reasons. A lot of critic I hear about F76 is “the emptynes of the world”.
    It’s a world after a nuclear war? What do you expect?
    Besides that I don’t find it empty at all. There is so much to do, so much to explore.

    The choice from Bethesda not to put any Human NPCs into the Game is brave and ingenious. This makes the game even better. You are a lone Survivor and every know and then you stumble over another Survivor and he is a humane player. This is the Wasteland I always imagined and wanted. It’s not overcrowded and you fell a lonelynes when you wander through Appalachia. Brillant, Bethesda, Brillant!

    Warning! The next passage contains spoilers!

    Some of the most memorable moments I had in a Videogame, I had in Fallout 76: one night I was ransacking a house in the woods. When I got out, between the dark trees a pair of big red eyes where gazing at me. Mothman. I ran, like if never run in a game before.
    Another time I was doing a quest and suddenly a big flying Creature appeared on the horizon into my direction. I tried to hide, that failed. I was killed instantly. After a respawn a full blown air fight was developing. Some sort of helicopters where attacking the creature.
    Both these events where unscripted and I love F76 for those moments.

    By the ways so far I played only solo and had a blast. It can only be better coop.

    Yes. There are some bugs. But I didn’t discover anything major so far. The launch was normal for an online game. No big downtimes. Since the last patch I didn’t had any lag at all.

    For me this is the best Fallout so far and my Game of the Year. I am very curious how this Game will develop.

There are blips and stumbles here and there, but nothing that would take away form the pure unbridled exploration that exists throughout Appalachia.

    People complaining about the food/hydration systems have not played this game for very long. Every system, be it shooting, melee, food, hydration, carry weight, all increase as you level up as a player. This is an RPG and if you were in a vault for 25 years and went outside for the first time, potentially ever, with a nasty hangover, you wouldn't be so great with aiming or being able to survive alone in the woods solo either.

    "I love Fallout games but never really pay close attention to the main quest." -This is the Fallout game for you. "I heard there are no NPCs" There are no HUMAN NPCs, but there are plenty of quest givers in the world to send you to new places and teach you new systems. "This game is dumb." -You probably haven't played it and love the idea of being negative for sport. "Bethesda games are buggy" -You're right, and they've laid out a roadmap of what they're fixing with regular updates. "This isn't a single player game." -You're right. This isn't.

The game gets more and more fun as I keep playing it as I discover more hidden storylines, grow my base and equipment, the options for character development grow and the engagements with other human players grows. I've been playing this game with my wife and it's quite perfect as we can play FO76 both together and alone without feeling like either of us has been missing out on a single main storyline. The game is just another totally different experience from the previous single players Fallouts so it should not be ranked according to the same parameters. You can tell that years of work went into this game and frankly it seems rather rude and immature to dismiss this game without even putting a good few hours of trying it out.

    I'm a big fan of the Fallout series and yes:
    - The game is quite buggy and crashes out regularly, which IMO is bad but forgivable as it does not significanty detract from the game experience
    - The lack of human/non hostile NPCs did disappoint me at first, as one of the most enjoyable parts of the Fallout series were the fascinating characters and societies.

    What at first I missed myself and most of the negative reviewers also missed is that:
    - the world is absolutely huge and has so much variety and hidden storylines. Despite the lack of human NPCs, there are many great robot run places which add a lot of flavour.
    - the variety of guns and armour has been decisively increased
    - the search and manufacturing of junk goods becomes a quite rewarding ingredient in the "survival" theme
    - the teamplay (when possible) is actually a lot of fun and taking down big enemies accompanied by other players is really satisfying
    - the camp building is pretty awesome as it requires some effort being put in it to search for plans and levelling up to increase budget. You can also build your base pretty much anywhere which allows for some very cool views.

    So, anyone looking to buy Fallout 76 I would strongly recommend. To those who have bought it and are disappointed so far I say, give it a proper try and add in-world friends, it gets better and better as you play it.    … Expand

    There are a few negatives. I have had some minor bugs. Nothing that ruins the experience. The storage limit is entirely too small (the recent patch helps). The forest where you begin is too easy. That being said, venture to new areas and the game can get very difficult.

    I am honestly confused about the poor reviews for this game. I believe most stems from people not getting a carbon copy of the existing games. It's really great that Bethesda is willing to take risks. I can understand missing NPCs but I don't think the game suffers from this decision. Bethesda open world games have always been buggy and I have experienced less bugs than Fallout New Vegas.

    Всё нравиться, вот только PVP систему бы другую, но говорят что сделают кастомные сервера, с режимом хардкор, вот это круто будет, FOnline 3D. Именно то что я ждал.

    I've been playing FO76 since the Beta and have had a great time. In over 50 hours of gameplay I've had around 5 disconnects, and the few bugs I've encountered have been pretty inconsequential. The map is huge and packed with interest. Anyone who tells you it's 'empty' is, frankly, dishonest, or is weirdly blind to the vast amount of content in this game.

Anyone who tells you it's 'empty' is, frankly, dishonest, or is weirdly blind to the vast amount of content in this game. At a rough count there are 800 primary and secondary locations, not including the many others that aren't listed in the game guides. People complain that it's not 'proper' Fallout (however you'd care to define that term), but it's a multiplayer game based on FO4 which is exactly what Bethesda promised, and exactly what they delivered. Making this a multiplayer experience necessarily changes the way has to be designed compared to previous versions. If you're one of the critics who don't understand that, perhaps think about it a bit harder. TL;DR If you liked FO4, you'll have a lot of fun with this game.… Expand

    El juego pudo y puede tener algunas complicaciones, pero ha mejorado radicalmente. Ahora el problema más grande son aquellos que se aprovecharon de los bugs para obtener ventajas y generaron un desvalance en las dinámicas del juego. La historia es diferente a otros fallout, pero sigue siendo profunda y genial.

    Non capisco tutte le critiche piovute addosso già dalle prime ore. E' un gioco che verrà messo a posto con il tempo. Al momento mi sento di premiare l'impegno e la costanza negli aggiornamenti.

    A lot more fun with the new updates. Still a few bugs and glitches but the community is amazing, combat has improved greatly and the overall gameplay is fun and exciting.

    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.
