The Fallout effect (for the wrong Fallout )

I heard that this game is good in the current year.

It's like CP2077. In a much better state but still buggy.

If you could make it through New Vegas (still the buggiest Fallout game to this day), then there's no real reason you shouldn't have fun with 76. Just play it like any other Fallout and ignore other players until you feel ready to start participating in multiplayer events.

How is the performance on PS4? Played it on release and especially the Harbor-DLC was so bad
Sold the disc, but just took the bullet and bought the GOTY edition for 9,99€

Yes, I actually liked the game.

Pretty bad at the moment on PS4 (or PS5 backwards), as mentioned by someone else, the game crashes almost immediately when you try to play it, if you have certain DLC installed. Doesn't even pass the first Bethesda logo and hard crashes to desktop. There's reports of missing textures or big pink glowy areas where those textures are missing in game too

Which is strange as it was working fine up until recently? Last update was version 1.16 which is from 6 years ago

 

[Sleepwalker]

FO3 is supposedly getting an enhanced remaster in the next year or two. But it's playable in 4K/60 right now on SX too, if you have one. Or 1440p/60 on Series S.

Time to dust off ye olde series x

The DLC is often on sale for $1.99 a piece so keep an eye on that too. I reckon Broken Steel is damn near essential.

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

I fired up FO4 GOTY edition to prepare for the update...

Noped out of that shit in bout 15 mins. That damn Garvey was insufferable.

Will try again after the update actually drops.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Can anyone tell me - if I have mods and an ENB, but I just started my playthrough, should I just wait until this releases and then reset all my mods? New to how this works

If you want to do a big, clean playthrough with these mods, I would wait till after it drops and see which mods get updated. If you don't give a F about the update, play away. I'm holding off for a few days, personally.

 

[Longcat]

I just hope this doesn't split the modding community apart like the various Skyrim editions did.

 

[blue velvet]

It should it's been optimised for more powerful hardware.

Given that Starfield runs like absolute booboo using the same engine, this doesn't provide confidence that they're able to fix it.

That game is pretty old in terms of mechanics and gameplay by now. Not sure how just a light remaster could fix those things, although obviously it is an incredible game.

 

[Spukc]

What about Fallout 4 VR? Does it get an update, too?

HAHAHAHAHAH










no

 

[Negotiator101]

Starfield is a new game and looks significantly better so educated guess tells me it will run fine.

 

[xrnzaaas]

A 60fps performance mode for a 2015 game, yep that's Bethesda. And knowing them it's still going to be highly unstable 60 fps.

 

[Dazraell]

FYI Fallout 4 already works fine on Steam Deck, in fact it’s in the top 50 most played games on it.

I think the only change is there will be an official Deck performance profile, which is always nice.

I know, I played a lot of unsupported games on Steam Deck just fine. I was referring to being relieved that this update will bring official support as this imply patch may not bork anything performance-wise, which is my main concern

 

[-BLITZ-]

Well, it's already been two days since it was finally brought back to GeForce Now. I've been playing it for two days, and it's really stable, it moves very well, I have no problems. I waited nine years to play it. So this update comes perfectly on time.

 

[playsaves3]

Yeah, that bit is a little weird.

The original One X version can run at 4K with a very good 60 FPS (with some acceptable drops) with the V-Sync unlock mod.

I hope we have the option to unlock quality mode or maybe quality mode is already unlocked by default?

 

[playsaves3]

And with another mod or two, it is locked bar one interior at native 4k. So let’s keep our fingers crossed. Great that it’s free!

Maybe we are looking at this wrong and quality mode is 4k and performance mode is 1440p 120

 

[Portugeezer]

Will the PS Plus version of the game get the patch, or do i have to buy it?

I read that it will, but it's not been 100% confirmed. The game is on dirt cheap sale until the 24th, hopefully we get clarification.

 

[Varnish La PS]

The million dollar question.

 

[TVexperto]

It wont! Those are different SKU

 

[Badlucktroll]

Wut?

I literally asked this on Twitter and got nothing. What the F are you talking about ? ..you should try harder to live up to your weak ass screen name.

I was just triggered because i probably have to delete the ps plus game and reinstall the purchased game

 

[King Dazzar]

I hope you're right. But likely not as the engine never used to handle anything above 60fps without issues. I'm split between two scenarios. With one they will max grass density etc and lock performance to a lower res and 60fps. And the other 4k 30fps. Or both modes are 60fps, with different settings and one locks and the other has occasional drops.

It would be great if they added HDR. Not only for PS5, but I reckon there's a chance the auto HDR option is removed in the new version for XSX too.

 

[Laptop1991]

Fallout 3 remaster was on their list to remaster, so that might happen, but i don't think Bethesda will remaster New Vegas,, they have never liked NV and still don't judging by the end of the TV show, that makes no sense to me, i'm a big fan of all the 3D single player Fallout's, i would want a New Vegas remaster the most, i just can't see it happening.

 

[Shake Your Rump]

play it! game's bad rap is very much undeserved, imo.

Meanwhile, I gave it a serious try and was bored to death. It's one of those "what were they thinking?" games.

Just play Skyrim or Fallout 3 again.

Your initial comment… “Will the PS Plus version of the game get the patch, or do i have to buy it?”
Clear you are trolling as you said you didn’t buy it initially.

i just wanted to post a funny gif based on the ps plus version of the game but ended up just buying it for $5

I thought you were cracking on me with the gif, saying I was triggered, that’s why I got so defensive. If that’s not what you were saying, my apologies.

 

[Nihilum]

They've made us wait this long on PC just for ultrawide? No engine changes from 76 where they solved uncapped frame rates. No DLSS / FSR??
This is the laziest shit ever.

I’m still annoyed that I have to use my disc to get my save games to work, if I install my digital copy the saves don’t show up, it’s been like this forever.

I downloaded my saves from the cloud from 2015 and then the game had no weapon sounds or voices so i found some info and was instruced to delete “controlls” and “settings” from the save files, and that fixed the issue

 

[Methos#1975]

Any word on if these will have their own achievements / trophies lost. I plat it on PS4 but wouldn't mind doing it again on PS5 if it's a new list.

If it is a "PS5" release, it will 100% have a new list. You can't share lists between the two, but if you have it completed on PS4 sometimes it will auto populate those lists and unlock again on PS5.

 

[rkofan87]

i will give this game another chance.

Fallout London Mod delayed

never heard of this Fallout London Mod, does it looks promising or more specifically why should i be excited about it?

Its a complete game set in London set in the Fallout world, its the size of Fallout 4 and Far Harbor combined and its free on PC, so if you want to play a Fallout game set in London you can, ohh and Mansoor im not triggered lol, just posting news. Other posters know about it in this thread

 

[Denton]

Imagine working on something for 4 hours and finally having a release date and then...getting fucked by a patch for 9 year old game because it breaks mods and mod tools.

Really hope the modders will be able to resolve the issues quickly, I was looking forward to London.

I would think the significant changes to code are primarily the change on console to bring us current gen native application. With PC it sounds like some specific bug fixes, rather than say moving Skyrim from 32bit to 64bit. So whilst it may impact some mods, you'd hope many wont need much if any rework. But hey this is Bethesda...

 

[Superkewl]

Probably fairly substantially since that mode is 1080p/60fps and running on the One S performance profile.

My biggest hope if that they increase the mod limit. My main draw to fallout 4 is the sim settlements 2 addon, and that alone takes up almost all the mod memory.

To be fair, they say in the video that they don't know for sure if it'll break and mod compatibility.

That's why they're delaying the launch so they can test it.

 

[amigastar]

Currently Fallout 4 has 66 000 players on Steam, not bad.

 

[Chronicle]

Really? Wow. Time to do the dlc. I love Fallout.

 

[Ocean Dweller]

What's the best way to determine why I am crashing? i.e. which mod?

I followed a step by step guide and then used LOOT to sort etc. Is there anything that might be screaming at me as to what the problem is?

I am at the start and created my character. I went through the intro and the NUKE just went off and as soon as I start running up the hill to the bunker it crashes

Here's an image of my LOOT

 

[adamsapple]

Downloaded the full game + all DLC + 60 FPS and a couple of other mods like the full dialogue, on Series X in advance, just in case the official update is fucked, lol.

 

[violence]

I’ll take a Dead Space TV show if it gets a new game made.

 

[Damien Crowley]

There goes my mod list... because of "stability...

Try turning off "weapon debris" in the advanced settings. I don't have any mods but I was crashing constantly as well before turning it off.

What are the chances of Bethesda banning this mod?
