    If you have friends to play with, this game is amazing. If you don't, it is probably not for you.

    - "Filled with bugs", as you play the BETA.
    - "No NPC", wrong, no HUMAN NPC because they're all dead.
    - "Microtransaction Cash Grab" yeah... but it's all cosmetic...
    - "Its not fallout i remember" because it's not.. it portrays the FO world better than their other games imo

    Now for the actual review.
    You basically get to play 2 different mode in this game, solo & co-op. I personally enjoy both for different reasons. Solo, i get to listen to all the story. Yes there are stories. The quests are, in my opinion, even better than Fallout 4. I played the full beta and at the release, I dropped 16 straight hours (thanks to the GF for grabbing me food) and didn't even feel like I finished the story I wanted to. I haven't had engaging stories like this from a video game in a long time that kept me immersed for 16 hours. I'm at work now and I can't wait to get back and find out what happened in the story.

    Now co-op is a whole different story. It opens you to goofing off with your friends. You run face first into any challenge and start doing events rather than quests. You start capturing workbench and territories and join group PVP events such as "civil war reenactment" or play who can craft the better base. When your friend is downed by a horde of melee supermutants and you lob a grenade in the middle because you're an **** Hilarity ensues.

    Also, I've sank probably over 40 hours into this game now if we're including the BETA and I didn't encounter a single game breaking bug. I was disconnected once (about 12AM EST at launch) and was able to instantly rejoin, and a few t-pose scorch. If that's unplayable to you, then idk. Good luck finding a game without bugs. Even my horse in RDR2 was running halfway into the ground at one point.    … Expand

    Had my doubts, but the first time I jumped in, after wandering around a while, ran into another player who teamed up with me and we spent hours adventuring together. Some of the best fun I've had in any Fallout game. I'm sold.

    It's my favorite crafting game, my favorite survival game, a good story with some of the best voice acting I've ever heard, wrapped up in Fallout 4's gameplay. I have encountered only one bug, and it's already fixed. I have no complaints.

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.
    My personal review just had a few exerpts of the game, all in all, I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend to anyone who enjoyed Fallout 4    … Expand

    People like to hate on this game because Bethesda wanted to try something different. Is it the best narrative story? No. But it is an amazing game for what a multiplayer fallout could be.

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

    Having jumped right into F76 like I have with the whole franchise, F76 stands up there with player outrage like its distant cousin Fallout Tactics - Brotherhood of Steel. And whilst Bethesda have some work to do ironing out the player base grievances, Bethesda's foray into the survivalist MMO genre is, for me and my friends not as bad as many make it out to be.

    What it gets right:    Having jumped right into F76 like I have with the whole franchise, F76 stands up there with player outrage like its distant cousin Fallout Tactics - Brotherhood of Steel. And whilst Bethesda have some work to do ironing out the player base grievances, Bethesda's foray into the survivalist MMO genre is, for me and my friends not as bad as many make it out to be.

    What it gets right:
    Playing with friends is easy - real easy. Team up, hunt down and kill them Scorch beasts or wanted players.
    Base building is just as enjoyable as it was in F4 (yes that had some frustrating placement issues too)
    Large open world with different and great looking biomes. Some of the places look beautiful and atmospheric.
    Crafting. Like all Fallout games collect, collect and collect and then hope you have Adhesive - (not for the short attention span folk, that's for sure). Its a junk/equipment management balance, but when has a Fallout game not been?
    PERKS. A great little system. swap cards in and out and even with boost friends with your cards.
    Holo Tapes. If you actually listen to the tapes there is some great stuff to be heard.

    Whats in the middle?
    Combat, not much has changed since F3. V.A.T.S now requires some skill, yes I said it. Real-time action V.A.T.S control can be honed to a deadly art with the right PERKS, but combat is still sluggish and movement "gluidy".
    Quests - The dailies are fun and there are many to choose from. Random quests will also pop up after discovering a location or encountering a creature. But basically they have gone bare minimum here, basic fetch/kill quests when it boils down to it.

    What it gets wrong:
    Servers - The world you are in is not that persistent, you cant have rivalries unless you make them your friends and then that would mute the point of rivalries. You get disconnected and that daily or pop up quest you were on is gone.
    No Human NPCs - I think that was a mistake.
    Main quest is weak and not very rewarding thus far.

    F76 tries to please both sides of the gamer fence - and that lets F76 down. A full hardcore style like RUST would open the game up to a larger audience, but loose the Fallout playerbase, but the "soft" approach of Bethesda have taken with the MMO survivalist genre makes it little hollow in places. But there is room for improvement, and with regular updates and content F76 will be a game I keep playing.    … Expand

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

If you enjoy experiencing the lore or narrative of Fallout, this is not a game for you. If you enjoy interesting companions who grow alongside you, this is not a game for you. If you enjoy a world that feels lived in, this is not a game for you. However, if you played one of the Fallout games and thought, "This would be even better if my friend could jump in," then this is the game for you. You can spend endless hours running around with your friends, building bases, completing quests, or hunting down strange enemies. I would not, however, recommend playing this game solo. If you play this game solo, every minor issue will become frustrating, and the major issues will be rage-inducing. You'll find yourself in encounters which were obviously designed for multiple players, often resulting in your own death or retreat.
    Overall, Fallout 76 is mediocre. Yes, you can find some fun in it, but you will have to deal with many technical issues (at least for now) and there is not a very good story behind the game. I would recommend playing this game with friends or not at all.    … Expand

Now that the game is out, I must admit I'm actually having more fun than I anticipated, exploring and coming across SOME story elements and quests. But there is indeed more bad than good with Fallout 76. The fact that there's no LIVING humanoid NPCs, and instead literally hundreds of dead raiders, settlers, and First Responders, is a sign right there. Fallout, as a franchise, is all about the story and the RPG elements, so why make a Fallout that lacks those things. I do like the perk cards, it's a nice change of pace, and excluding the fact there's no NPCs alive, there is so much great potential for story. But other actual players also hampers this. Why would Vault 76 get the "best and brightest" for 25 years, only for all of them to unleash on each other the moment they step out of the vault... Again, pros and cons. This COULD be a great game if they add some NPCs, maybe an offline mode (because if it is only online there WILL come a day where the servers shut down and no one can play this game again), and please, Bethesda, tighten up the PvP. No one WANTS to get harassed constantly by someone else, even if they can't outright kill you. Had a guy follow me, shooting me, for maybe 10 minutes. He was higher level so I didn't dare fight back (tried that once before, ended with me dying of course). Also, bugs and glitches, but they aren't the worst, so not really worth mentioning, at least for me. 6/10, just an ok game, and a bad Fallout.

    I remember when this game was first announced, people were worried that they'd be getting beat up by every "13" year old kid that decided to buy the game. There is a decent mechanic akin to that of Borderlands where both parties have to attack to initiate PVP, or listen to the same radio station. But now everyone is crying there isn't any PVP, I don't understand.

    But the game itself while not perfect, has promise. If Bethesda constantly supports further development of the game we could eventually see more NPC's more quests given by NPC's, more areas, fixes to all your problems. The game is exactly as it stated it was going to be an Online Fallout and the mechanics reflect it (V.A.T.S is a big one), it never claimed to be Fallout MMO 76.

    It is what it is, but it isn't a zero. I would recommend buying it if you're a fan of fallout, because there is still lore here, and if you're worried about them messing up the lore take the time to learn what happend and what is happening, don't expect a MMO, and don't expect the sun and the moon... especially from a new release from Bethesda.    … Expand

    Really good, really fun, not as many bugs as people say there is. People are just salty because it's not Fallout 5. You asked for fallout multiplayer and you got fallout multiplayer so stop complaining.

    Very good game, I advise you not to listen to the brave who put 0. The game is very well provided and does very well job, a good game coop and fun to 4! It has been so long that a multi in cooperation on Fallout was expected!

    Ich halte FO76 für atmosphärisch durchaus gelungen. Manche Interface-Entscheidungen mögen einer Überarbeitung würdig sein und die Grafik ist kein Upgrade zu Fallout4.
    Es lässt sich aber hervorragend als Singleplayer (wenn auch online) spielen und erhält durch die Multiplayer-Komponente einen Gewissen Reiz des Fremden. Wir kennen das Spieler-typische Verhalten aus Survivaltiteln    Deutsch:

    Es lässt sich aber hervorragend als Singleplayer (wenn auch online) spielen und erhält durch die Multiplayer-Komponente einen Gewissen Reiz des Fremden. Wir kennen das Spieler-typische Verhalten aus Survivaltiteln wie Rust, DayZ, etc.; diese aggressive Spielweise fand ich bisher allerdings kaum (zumal das System eine solche auch eher hemmt) was dazu führt, dass man zwar anderen menschlichen überlebenden begegnet, seinen postapokalyptischen Alltag eher allein oder mit Freunden und Bekannten bestreitet. Ein Nachteil beim gemeinsamen erkunden und enträzeln ist dabei die umfangreiche Vertonung vieler Quests. Diese stört regelrecht die absprachen im voicechat (vor allem ts) oder der voicechat kann nicht verstanden werden weil gerade irgend ein endloser Tagebucheintrag verlesen wird.
    Deshalb nur 8 von 10; vorallem aber auch 8von 10 um den zerreißenden Wertungen entgegen zu wirken.    … Expand

    Somewhat buggy start, but it has potential to develop into a good game. It's almost like playing an early access game. I look forward to seeing what they add, and what changes they make as the game matures.

    The game is complete recycle of Fallout 4 and so much it is actually embarrassing. However the game is pretty much fun to play and id give probably 7 or 8 for the game itself cause world is huge and there is bit of everything really from weapons, various customization to building but what really infuriated me so much is when i saw among active challenges the one challenge called ExploreThe game is complete recycle of Fallout 4 and so much it is actually embarrassing.

I mean what do they take people for ?! Jerks who d gladly dedicate their life entirely to explore some piece of **** video game ?! That s so abusive enough to make me vow never to play Fallout game again. Also what the **** is meaning is the last story quest called "I Am Become Death" ?! For **** sake why encrypt stupid nuclear launch sequence ?! What is the point in doing that ?!… Expand

    I am a big fan of this game. I do not play it for pvp or pve, I here to explore the world and have fun, and that is what is happening.

    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.
