    Do not ever buy. Why, may you ask? Cause the hame is a glitchy, buggy mess. I am so tired of lagging when I literally turn. There is so much wrong with this game. First off, the hit registration is straight trash. My attacks will literally do no damage. What? Aren’t these bugs that should have been fixed forever?

There is so much wrong with this game. First off, the hit registration is straight trash. My attacks will literally do no damage. What? Aren’t these bugs that should have been fixed forever? Secondly, the performance of the game is so terrible. I keep failing time based events because the game can’t load the fact that I’ve completed the event before the time runs out. Also another thing about Fallout 76. The team working on it only care about content and ways to make money. They don’t care about fixing their game. It’s sad how they can’t even get some of the basic stuff. It’s a pathetic excuse for an online game. It’s a shame to see a company that used to be so amazing fall so quickly. Whatever team is working on Fallout 76 should be fired and replaced, cause they can’t figure out what to do right.… Expand

    The game improved a lot, some bugs where fixed, but most improvements were made in making it more monetary success, not much changes in terms of game play. You join servers and you only spot few players who just stand afk waiting for some trades and automated-junk collectors. Addition of NPC didn't solve the biggest problem of the game: it feels empty, don't get me wrong you have a lot of quests to do, but somehow world doesn't feel alive, bad voice acting and recording does help.
    I really would love to see them scrap this game and start from scratch, maybe with new engine    … Expand

    I've seen all the complaints of problems with gameplay and the Atom shop related to early and later dates after the initial release and the Wastelanders release

    I really love this game. it seems simplistic at first glance but there is so much detail added to the world and the gameplay, I have to commend the designers.

    I can't comment on PVP, but I play solo and in a team with friends. I have noticed any griefers and the community is helpful and friendly.

    I understand there was complaints about the amount of content before the free Wastelanders release, but I can't fault it now. As a previous WoW and Guild Wars player, plus many other solo games, I'm enthralled with Fallout 76

    The base-building aspect of the game adds a very pleasan't thrill to the entire experience. Also the Vendor machine mechanism of selling in-game items to other players for in-game currency, is also a brilliant idea. As a busy person, I appreciate the Atom shop which allows (for the most part) cosmetic improvements to be purchased for real money. The range and number of these items are a pleasant surprise

    I could list bugs for hours but what bothers me the most is that Bethesda doesn't do anything about it. They don't care instead to spend money on Fallout 1st.

    This concept could be cool but should have just been a part of fallout 4 like GTA or Red Dead but, i'm not even sure the online could work on the 20 year old engine that it uses. This one has too many bugs, too many microtransactions, and too many exploiters

A change a while ago completly ruined the game for me tho. Enemies now scale with your level so there is not really any player progression. A low level will deal as much damage to an enemy as somebody with a higher level since the enemies scale to each player. When you get stronger over time the enemies in the same area get stronger aswell so there is not point for me to upgrade my character. The System before was way better, where enemies would have a certain fixed level in a specific area. I also prefered the perk system in Fallout 4 where you could unlock every single perk. It is a grind to unlock every perk, but this was another reason that kept me playing. Why couldnt they just make a Fallout with coop combatibility instead of an online Fallout. Im just gonna stick to the other Fallout entries for now.… Expand

    It's a Fallout, open world, MMO (in a way) and with lots of details from the saga, that's good. But it has too many bad things for this game to measure up to the others in the series. The store, that's bad.

    The game started as total garbage at launch, but today it's not bad. Most of the updates the game gets are actually improvements.
    The game is mostly fun, especially if you have friends to play with, but a real modding experience is still missing, and we got a crappy subscription service (FO 1st) post launch.

    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.
