    By far the worst game iv ever played not just in bethesda but on the entire ps4 platform itself.. An obvious money grab. I purchased it for 15€ just to see if its as bad as i ultimatley knew it was going to be. 15 is too expensive for trash like this... I feel bad for anybody who spent 200 on power armour edition

    I played all fallout games and they were all amazing. I never expected this game to be the worst game I ever played. I tried giving it a chance but the glitches never stopped. The game does not have a good storyline and it was just a waste of money. I feel bad for the fans and who purchased the expensive packet. If I would have waited and see all the flaws, I would have never purchased this game.

    Bethesda had a gem and turned it into manure.
    I was such a Fan of the franchise and now I'm angry and sad whenever I hear about fallout. Everything that was good about fallout i.e. solo player mode; human NPCs, amazing storylines, every new location feeling like you're discovering it for the first time is gone. Instead you will find a sad, lonely, and soulless multiplayer game. What a

    I feel this has become a solid game with a rough start and now it's just popular to hate it. I'm enjoying it almost as much as I have enjoyed other fallout games and feel the game has even improved in certain areas. This game will continue to grow and I'm excited about that because there will be new and evolving stories that hopefully keep the game fresh and interesting.

    It's not the worst fallout game like everyone is saying but not the best either way.
    It's just a decent SPIN-OFF, don't forget that people.

There are a few bugs from time to time that aren't pleasant but they didn't destroy the overall experience either. The world building is great. The map and its different areas is really immersive. The missions almost everyone has a different feel to them. There is a lot to discover here and exploration is really rewarding. And I think the outdated graphics works in the games favor in this case giving it a cool retro art style that just makes a lot of sense. The environmental storytelling isn't the best though, but it is ok for now. My personal experience is almost an 8/10, but there are issues here and the graphics aren't up to date so I have to objectively score it a bit lower. They are still improving the game though and that score might rise with the introduction of human NPC's this fall. Expand

    This game needs work. A lot of work. The co-op in the game was a great idea. But Bethesda did it so poorly, I feel they will drop it completely and never attempt it again. But what went wrong was making it a mini MMO. Instead of an entire open world, they should have started off with 4 player co-op. Or 8 player co-op.

But Bethesda did it so poorly, I feel they will drop it completely and never attempt it again. But what went wrong was making it a mini MMO. Instead of an entire open world, they should have started off with 4 player co-op. Or 8 player co-op. This would have had the game running significantly smoother, with less errors and problems. And cut down a huge amount of problems they had. And would have been much more fun for the players. I was really looking forward to playing a Fallout with friends. But having to worry about other people ruining the world, made it all the harder to play.

    The PVP combat system is a little broken. And I will admit to trolling a little bit in the game using their broken PVP combat against them. I would stand in front of players until they hit me in order to force PVP. This is a cheese way, but hey, if this is the system they gave us, then we gotta utilize it.

    The biggest downfall was the amount of people who used exploits for duplication, and got carried away, crashing the servers. Bethesda wasn't prepared to handle the amount of glitches and errors within the game. They really should have brought on a more experienced team to help them. At least for the first year of the game.

    However, I really hope they don't give up with the co-op. I hope they learn from their mistakes, and try again. Better. And perfect the next attempt at co-op.

    Да,у этой игры и в правду очень старый движок для 2018 года,графика плохая,ч человеческие NPC отсутствуют,есть баги.Но Fallout 76 постоянно обновляют,добовляя в игру новые события и исправляют баги,а так же в скором времени в эту игру добавят человеческих NPC!Если эта игра и была плохой то только на старте,а сейчас с ней за исключением графики всё нормально.Играя в эту игру порядка 20 часов я не нашел никаких багов и просадки фпс,всёс этой игрой в плане оптимизации нормально.

    As of 2021, this is easily one of my favorite RPG's ever made. The new content updates have made this game a real treat for anyone who likes Fallout. If you played this game in the passed and were burned by it, give it one more chance. You'll probably love it.

    This is definitely a must with friends. - Redownloaded it and I'm remembering all of my fallout 4 moments but with friends. 99% of the bugs I complained about initially are not there anymore and I'm enjoying exploring. The only thing I do not like is the micro transactions but that's just a small part of it. If you like fallout 4, give this guy another chance.

    This game, has it's bugs. This is true.
    But it is still o e of the best games out there today. Bethesda is known for glitchy games, it happens, it's no reason to hate it. If you can't handle a crash or glitch once or twice a day, then you need to learn more patience. Overall still a 10/10 and I am happy to put 12+ hrs a day 3 days a week into it without any negativity.

    This game is extremely fun. Great story mode, great survival aspects and great weapon builds. This game is perfect if you love survival games, although the occasional glitches and bugs make this slide away from a 10/10 slightly.

    Good concept that made me preorder. Word of advice if you have friends willing to play do not miss the opportunity. Without friends this game will beat your head in with a major difficulty curve other than that its pretty ok

    I like the game but it has it problems. Like i bought a backpack thingy in the Atomic Shop and i couldn't use it in game. And the smoke from the generators is weird. I recommend a video on Youtube called The fall of 76. He goes in to a lot in the video.

    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.
