Why were you so forgiving of Fallout 76?

If your thinking "forgiving of what?"


I love Fallout and Elder Scrolls, but you cant be that forgiving. If you support a product despite flaws it will just convince companies to do the same thing. And playing with friends isnt an excuse to ignore the problems.

*The numerous new bugs when the game came out.

deletes game bug

Reddit Fallout 76 bugs

*The RETURN OF PREVIOUS BUGS from Fallout 4.

*The Fallout 76 collector edition canvas bag controversy

Canvas Bag promise fulfilled....finally

*The Nuka Cola Rum controversy.

* The Nuclear Weapon code controversy

Nuke codes 76

I'm pretty sure everyone who's still playing it has acknowledge it's flaws but are still enjoying it for what it is.

Would you like them to stop playing?

I lurk the shite out of this board and haven't seen one post on the game that fits that description. Even those who rave of the game talk about how they wish it wasnt so buggy.

Jefforize and a few other posters in the 76 thread are really loving the exploration part of the game, which is a big part of the draw of fallout games to me. I hate their decision to not include NPC's. I understand their reasoning but still think it was dumb. I would hate getting the entire story from endless audio logs.


They'll get this to a good point and I'll pick it up again. Just too many other games to play right now.

Strange thread. I trash the game almost daily yet play it almost daily too.

Eta: removed, pointless

There is a robot on top of the ski lodge named rose that's basically the Queenpin of all raider operations in appalachia.

Also a roaming super mutant vendor.

Remember..its just no human npcs.

The worst bug is the dupe bug. Two shot explosive legendaries are the meta and the God rolls have all been duped and the economy is fricked.

Also pvp balance is beyond broken due to this.

I just jumped back in last night because I was so pissed at what they gave us at launch.

To Bethesda's credit, they're actively fixing a lot of issues and listening to fans. It's still not great, but it is improving.

It's not much more than a survival game, but that's always been one of my favorite aspects of Fallout.

I feel like this is how most games like this play out.

There is always a meta and something OP no matter what. Once something is nerfed it will just be something else. It’s a carousel of bitching lol.

its a frickton better since launch.

however the Dupe bug is going to be nearly impossible to fix and unfortunately that completely fricks the economy.

with player vending coming, this is a major concern of mine.

if you ignore all the multiplayer frickups and just treat fo76 like a single player game where you sometimes run into other players , a good time can be carved out. If you want to rush to the "end game" and power farm/grind, this game sure as frick aint for you unless you are a true fallout fiend.

also the main "enemy", scorchbeasts, are probably the most annoying, lamest, least fun "end game monster" in the history of video games.

I can trash this game all day, trust me. its fricked. I wouldn't even recommend it to friends. Yet I keep picking it back up. Its very chill and soothing and provides enough excitement to keep me engaged.

I feel the same. As much as I love a good Fallout story (New Vegas), the real value lies in exploring the world, which they've done well in this game.

The map is massive and extremely interesting.

My main complaint is that the graphics are still 2015 Fallout 4. It's not a big deal but I'm a graphics snob.

I want to call you crazy, but this is exactly how I was with No Man’s Sky at launch and for like the 8 months following
