    This game is definitely not worth buying even for 10$. It's just so boring.

    Ugly, dated graphics. Boring, mindless grind play. I want my money back. A stark disappointing contrast to other amazing releases this year. This game has killed faith in Bethesda. If the next Elder Scrolls uses the same game engine, will not be buying.

Мне хватило более 10 часов стримов ( не обзоров) чтобы понять это не та игра что стоит по цене ААА проекта. Куча багор, глюков и лагов и под предлого что в будущем все будет починено, тогда может стоило с начало починить а потом продавать. Рад что не купил.… Expand

    It has some of the look and feel of a Fallout game but it doesn't deserve to be part of the series. They should have never released this mediocre attempt just to produce an online experience. Instead Bethesda should have realized what they are good at: deep single player RPG's, and improve on that.

    This game is borderline unplayable at times. They released a game that wasn't ready and what seems to be on a server that can't handle the type of gameplay. Game has a ton of lag, bugs and glitches. I'd spend your money elsewhere.

    I really, Really, REALLY tried to love this game. I have been a huge fan of all of the other Fallout games but this one has soooo many things wrong with it, I just don’t know where to start! After playing only 50hrs (and only at level 22) I am ready to throw in the towel. I have spent far too long trying to manage the weight of my items and the amount I am able to carry with no luck.

After playing only 50hrs (and only at level 22) I am ready to throw in the towel. I have spent far too long trying to manage the weight of my items and the amount I am able to carry with no luck. After dropping nearly everything I owned I still only just came under the weight so as not to be overencumbered. On top of this there have been so many game freezes and bugs that it borders on ridiculously frustrating!
    I have enjoyed the brief time of actual gameplay/building/exploring etc I have been able to do without becoming annoyed by something stupid in the game. But frustration heavily outweighs enjoyment!
    I look forward to Fallout 5 - fingers crossed.    … Expand

    It's difficult to give a game a one-star rating when you technically enjoy the setting and gameplay more than most games.

Fallout 76 earns a one-star rating despite having the POTENTIAL to be one of the best games of the year because it fails at every level to be a playable game. As I sit reviewing this trash fire of a game, I can still hear another mic'd player lamenting the fact that I got loaded into his blast zone (no hard feelings, dude, just one of the many glitch-adjacent joys FO76 players get to look forward to) literally TWO MINUTES after I got disconnected from the server and had to Alt F4.

    Where to even begin. From the constant server crashes to the fact that the Bethesda team only ever seems to apply patches to things no one actually gives a crap about ("WOW, this game lags so much it's like playing a slideshow but THANK GOD someone fixed the shadows left behind on the Nuka Cola bottles!"), the entire player experience just feels like a joke. A really, really bad joke.

    The storyline is OK. The graphics are decent. The gameplay is really fun IF you can go 5 minutes without getting knocked from the server or randomly being teleported into a horde of enemies. I didn't have strong feelings about multiplayer one way or another, but it's not even possible to rate the game on those terms, because it just frankly doesn't work. This outdated engine is so clunky that if it was a car, you couldn't sell it to one of those businesses advertising that they "buy junk cars" for $5. It is really, really that bad.

    Just such a waste of potential, such a waste of an incredible setting, cool lore, and standard but enjoyable mechanics. Oh, well. I guess if you like the idea of Fallout, but instead of a playable game, it's a slideshow, this one's great.    … Expand

    While being an absolute hardcore Bethesda fanboy, this game is the biggest disappointment of the last decade. The game world is boring, empty and doesn't really add much in terms of renewal.

A classic Bethesda game, like Fallout 3/ New Vegas or Skyrim, should be single player only and never even attempt to go multiplayer unless they have a good formula and a really, really good reason to do so. With games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Spiderman out there at the exact same time, this game just gets demolished under a pile of garbage while the rest is praised to heaven, like it should be. If this game had to be described with one word it would be: Shame. Shame on Bethesda for putting this game out there, as a lowkey cashgrab that dares to call itself 'Fallout'.… Expand

    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.

    I waited to give it time. Let them fix it and make it better. I dont feel they have. It is still buggie and i just dont understand why they keep messing up. I feel there greed is showing and i will not buy another game from them without renting it first. If you are enjoying this game good for you but this left a bad taste for me.

    Goddamn this game is horrible and how the mighty have fallen.

    Releasing a game broken on launch is a recent trend in gaming eg. Anthem and it is making me sick and tired of online service games which now I just don't buy because of how insulting they are to fans. I didn't even play anymore then 15 hours of this game because it was tedious and hurt my eyes looking at this garbage. 16x    Goddamn this game is horrible and how the mighty have fallen.

    With the release of fallout 1st being $100 a year is even more insulting, what happened to the free DLC, I am so glad I got a full refund for this game.

    Wow was this bad. After playing fallout 4 and really enjoying it, this was really disappointing. I put a good amount of time into it at launch, but I couldn’t even bring myself to finish it. The story (if you can call it that) was lifeless and empty. Just a terrible game and a complete waste of money.

    They said fallout 76 will be great after the wastelanders update. They said everything will be tested now and it will work this time.
    Don't believe them!
    It seems like they have just tested one part of the campaign. If you play as a rider you have to restart role levela sometimes, because you can't xontinue. The game is still laggy. Enemy's just spawn arround you and even if you respawn    They said fallout 76 will be great after the wastelanders update. They said everything will be tested now and it will work this time.

    One if the fun parts of fallout was always to collect stuff. But in fallout 76 they still haven't figured out how to implement more storage space. You can just store 800g in your storage.
    When you want more storage place you have to pay 100€ extra per year or you can throw stuff away.
    Even when the new story is quite fun, you always feel, that this game is just a cash cow. So if hey want to sell this game to you for the full price, just don't buy it.    … Expand

    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.
