Hahah I called it. Bethesda released a hotfix for this update yesterday. Unfortunately, I was a day late on the news, but hey, the update to the update still don't fix much. Y'all can expect several more updates for a while. I definitely recommend staying on the old version of Fallout 4, until they for sure stop updating the game. For all console players, I'm praying for y'all 🙏 stay strong boys
Also, hope y'all enjoy the new face cam. It's something I wanna do more of going forward (definitely not showing off my baller cd collection)
6 seconds? crazy
I could care less about the Amazon show. Its another example of f*cking the preexisting lore. Just like the Witcher series and HALO from Paramount. It retcons Fallout 1 and 2, and by proxy FNV.
I am not expecting yaboy to have long hair.
I see ya MoistCr1tikal x Jesus
I can't even access the mods tab, so... yeah. "Hotfix" my ass. More like patching a sinking ship with duct tape.
This "update" took the same time to come out as Bethesda gave obsidian to make fallout new vegas... Let that sink in
Pretty sure the update took longer, update took 2 years, New Vegas took 18 months.
New Vegas didn't crash whenever you shot an object, either. Even as janky and busted as it was at release, it wasn't *this* busted.
Roughly the same amount of time from the announcement, who knows when they actually started working on it? Based on what we got I'd say last month. 😂
Keep in mind, Vegas was also a cannibalization of Fallout 3, and scraps of what would have been Fallout 3; It wasn't made from scratch. Bethesda, on the other hand, made this "update", that was basically 50% "jank", 45% "mod breaker", and 5% "slop content that could have been tossed in years ago"; They seemingly intended to break the very game they made, because simple incompetence doesn't cover this crap, particularly after it happened maybe twice with Skyrim.
@@Umbra_Ursus if an interview with the director of fnv is anything to go by that wasn't the initial plan, obsidian truly wanted to make something unique but hey... Bethesda wanted a game made in 18 months so cut had to be made (and the fact that it's still the best game in the entire franchise says a lot lmao)
For a studio operating entirely on "modders will fix it", Bethesda really goes out of it's way to make the modders' life not easy, huh.
jealousy. todd realised the modders will always do what he does better
@@justbread4570 personally I think that they are just utterly incompetent. Todd knows that modders do what they do better, and cites that as a selling point, so I doubt that they do it maliciously.
They don't think that. They unironically think the sun shines out of their ass and what they are selling is alright.
Did you see Todd at the Game awards every time Starfield was nominated and didn't win?
He thinks he is god, he deserves awards and can't even fathom the alternative.
Modders are the reason a somewhat good game like Fallout4 is still played 10 years after its release (same goes for Skyrim). Modders are BSda PR team, aftersales team, content creation team ... and they make it for free.
And all that hard work has gone through the toilet. Dick move BSda
@aa-tr9xt
It's absolutely malicious.
There's two points to this:
1. Bethesda wants paid mods. They want them so, so badly. They will keep trying until it works. They will make modding as frustrating as possible, while still being feasible, as they try to slide the mod cake over to their plate, which will promise being easier because they aren't actively messing with it, or at least will give heads up to (in theory, lmao). They want to make money off your free labor. They want it so, so badly. It's a dog trying not to look at the cookies on the table, it's the cat pretending it doesn't care about the birdcage so you forget and leave them alone together.
2. Especially after some of the rhetoric around Starfield's release (the "neat game, I'll buy it in 2028 when the mods are done" crowd), Bethesda has come to realize that their biggest competition is their old games, which have been modded beyond their ability to overtake. Bethesda wants you to buy TES and Fallout whatever on release, not keep playing modded Skyrim and pick it up years later.
Bethesda does not want your mods to be free. They want to make money off them. That is their goal. They don't know how to do it yet, but they want to. If they thought they could both nuke Nexus or whatever, AND keep even a fifth the community using their paid service instead, they would do it tomorrow.
If you have any doubts whatsoever, remember, these are the people that pioneered the decay of DLC. From "expansion pack" to "a house or some textures for 5 bucks".
By releasing an update for a near decade old game, they break mods that no longer have creator support, and permanently reduce the glue they would need to break to get people to pay for them instead.
I guarantee that's the goal. Fewer mods to compete with, with either their next attempt to sell mods, or else to compete with in the future.
Hell, for how out of touch Bethesda has been lately, there's a non-0 chance that this is the result of Starfield underperfoming already. The problem wasn't that they made a mediocre, anemic game, the problem is that all the millions of people that should have bought it were all playing modded Fallout 4. Again, maybe that sounds crazy, but Bethesda was arguing with people for having the wrong opinion on Starfield, meaning the idea that the game was actually good and successful, but there's just something wrong with the end consumer already exists.
Bethesda
- Break the lore
- Break the game
- Break Mods
- Break your computer
Meanwhile the fanboy : Wow Bethesda really respect us by updating the game.
True. Also, I didn’t expect to see you here. I always see you in Tectone videos lmao.
Bethesda literally hates Fallout because it isn't THEIR creation, this is why they retconned basically the NCR out of existence.
They HATE the idea of Fallout EVOLVING.
@@streptococo4735 Spoilers for the show
I wouldn't say they retconned it out of existence. That's a bit of a leap. The NCR isn't confirmed gone by any means. Also, if they hated other creations so much then they wouldn't have ended the show by showing new vegas.
@@infinityseven5924 your not paying attention then.
Vaults 31 to 33 are canon according to the showrunners and Bethesda.
Vaults that would have existed in FALLOUTS 1 AND 2. Games that werent made or written by BETHESDA...
Said VAULTS would have been raided by the Master since the Cathedral was near Santa Monica and he had access to VAULT TEC RECORDS.
The Enclave have a " base" NEAR NCR Territory, when they were outright destroyed and lost most of their forces on the Oil Rig. The ones " mentioned" in Chicago disobeyed orders and might have joined the BoS there.
If Bethesda "doesnt" hate Obsidian or the older games, Why did they reject Obsidian in 2018 when they approached them to work on another Fallout?????
Im really sick of people making excuses for Bethesda pure f*cking incompetance and stupidity.
@@MLPDethDealr32 Wow, ok. I'm no Bethesda fanboy by a long shot and I'm certainly not making excuses. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe they want to fuck up new vegas with their own writing. However, there are many reasons that they could have rejected obsidian creating more fallouts. For one, the original writers aren't there. There are many more business reasons why they would reject it. Still, maybe they did reject it just because they didn't want obsidian becoming the one known for the franchise. You're ranting a bit much here, but a lot of it is just speculation. There are many inconsistencies across the franchise and I certainly wouldn't immediately assume that it was intentional to rub out the old lore. They can't even put accurate loot in prewar containers. Regardless, there has been no hard retconning of the NCR. I've never defended Bethesda for anything. I shit on them like everyone else for the garbage they pull. In this case I'm just not jumping to conclusions. Tone down the ranting a bit.
And they STILL haven't added classic visible holstered weapons, amazing
There was already a mod that did that... and guess what mod doesn't work now?
@@googleisevil8958 My stomach dropped when i realised that mod wasn't working anymore.
Man, i'm pissed many essential mods that add or fix so much become useless even for a small bug fix, and i feel bad for the authors having to rework their mods when they've been working perfectly for years.
This mechanic was ripped from fallout 4 so bad what even before next gen update this mod was a pain to install and make it work. At least for me.
I still can't believe they were so lazy that they didn't add that back. Just baffles my mind.
Um.. have you seen the armors in Fallout 4? They weren't designed to account for holstered weapons. Just look at the Raider armor.
I still cannot fathom why they didn't just leave the PC version alone. "Next Gen" should be a term only applicable to consoles
There are legitimate improvements that could be made that PC players could make use of. But as your Boy said, it's not really a "next-gen" update. It's a spoonful of slop to capitalize on the resurgence brought by the show. The casual filth who are playing the game for the first time and going "omg, it's just like the show!" won't care either way.
next gen barely even applies anymore, Bethesda is just late as hell
Fuck no. Leave consoles alone too
@@GibsMeMunny until they crash because they picked up a gun and tried to shoot it or some other stupid reason
No no, it’s to represent the Fallout TV show.
The best way to nuke a game and town at the same time!
Literally lost everything with this update. Multiple saves, along with a whole library of mods, all gone 💀
thats what you get for trusting methesda.
Hey, now you have no reason to play Fallout 4, instead of buying Starfield, TES6, and Fallout 5, right? And no reason to not just immediately jump on the paid mod wagon, since all your mods are broken, right?

If they actually want to bring back the enclave they gotta make them joinable and have actual depth instead of just being le evil american government with cartoonishly evil people in it.
what’s even worse is that they keep making the protagonists friggin vault dwellers every. dang. time. interplay and obsidian? Vault Dweller only for the first game, then a tribal, then a random courier.
ugh…. outside of From, and occasionally Capcom with Monster Hunter, all the old AAA studios are complete useless crap now.
@@mkv2718 Micro Forté: protagonist is a fresh BoS recruit (a wastelander) in Tactics.
Also I think Fallout 2 kinda implies that at that point everybody should've already gotten out of the vaults or died. Because a lot of time has passed. But Bethesda still clings to the idea that people can live in Vaults still. For hundreds of years at this point.
plot twist its a dust or frost mod plot
They were just minding their own business this time, and you murdered them all. Or they were genuinely trying to be good people that time, and you murdered them in cold blood.
@@cjnf11 I can't remember who it was - Shoddycast, RadKing, EpicNate, or someone else - did an in-depth discussion about how Bethesda refuses to move the game forward and is stuck on a short list of "quirky ideas" from the original Interplay Fallout. Vaults? Check. Brotherhood of Steel? Check. Supermutants? Check. People building settlements out of trash? Check.
Of course, this entirely ignores the direction that Interplay had been going with Fallout 2, with actual newly-built towns and cities, a resurgence of technology in the NCR being an actual manufacturing society, and the fact that supermutants were created by the Master and not all were brain dead morons. But Bethesda just can't let go of the gimmicks and try something new or move the story forward. It's like they're criminally addicted to nostalgia.
I swear every dev and company is in a competition to see who can screw over their fanbase the hardest
That competition has been going on since 2013.
They just went to find the minimum they can do to get paid
One exception is weirdly enough Hello Games.
Imagine if Fallout 4 kept getting massive mods every few months, but were made by the developers themselves and were forever a core part of the game's experience after each update.
That's basically what HG is doing with No Man's Sky. Each update literally feels like you installed a high effort mod only because I'm used to that actually being the case with other games.
Play indie games.
@@incomprehensible3945 Many indie games suffer from problems similar to those of AAA games, the difference is that there are more good games on the indie scene, making the problem less visible
The worst part is, this update still didn't fix any bugs present from launch: namely the various game-breaking settlement bugs such as beds despawning when away from a settlement - which for whatever reason is caused by having electronics in your settlement like TVs, jukeboxes, and radios, so you're still effectively barred from having those decorations if you don't want your settlement happiness to suffer.
To think that even a company like Rockstar decided to officially incorporate a modder-made fix to speed up the infamously long loading screen to GTA Online as part of an official patch (and paid the modder for it), while Bethesda still continues to ignore the numerous fixes mods provide for their games.
im not surprised at all, people were saying fallout 76 is completely fixed, perfect, amazing game. It was literally the only game that crashed on my borrowed PS5, it was the only game i experienced some kind of bug or glitch every few seconds. Some being completely massive and making me turn off the game constantly. None of the 20 other PS5 games had any issue like that. I guess bugs is one thing that Bethesda consumers do not care about in the slightest, therefore developers have zero reason to address them.
The bed thing is actually a canon random encounter, the electro-spotting bed bandits (yes, thats their actual name, seems like the devs had some fun with encounters like the skeletons and teddy bears) are a group of raiders that are masters of stealth that go from settlement to settlement looking for electronics that are there for settlers enjoyment, so they steal their beds as an eye for an eye exchange. The radios and tvs raise happiness, so no beds reduces it. The devs just forgot to add the factor of happiness the radios and tvs produce when powered and turned on. They usually come when you are away, but there is something like a 0.47% chance or something like that where you can spot them taking a bed from one of your settlements. I know for a fact because i saw it, i killed them as they were carrying the bed and they had a note on them counting with tally marks how many beds they stole, and there were around 10 marks. I lost about 30 beds to them, so i dont think it links, but the beds stopped disappearing after i killed them. I killed them at around 40-ish hours, and now im at 79 hours and havent lost one since.
Don't you dare to touch my junk dupe and force attach glitchs
I wish game devs would embrace ambitions from fans, within reason, and collaborate. This would literally inspire the new generations of gamers to one day even become game devs themselves.
What a coincidence that Bethesda dropped an update out of nowhere just as Fallout:London neared its release.
This is exactly what I thought too.
Why would get sabotage london on purpose? You still need to buy F4 to play london
@@roosty2266 Not the first time Bethesda gets pissed at modders because they release superior products for free, and actually bother to fix Todd's broken ass games. Hence "coincidence".
@@roosty2266 same reason triple AAA studios got mad at baldurs gate 3

@@roosty2266 because it has become such high quality that it is literally embarrassing to Bethesda that a team of basically consistent 30ish volunteers and a few paid people to make a game bigger than Fallout 4 with more innovation and interest.
I mean why did they advertise canvas bags and send me a plastic vinyl one? I don't know why you trust them
I bet Bethesda didn’t even plan on ever releasing this update they just saw how much attention their game was getting and cooked it up in 3 weeks
And they probably outsourced the whole thing.
3 weeks????? LMFAOOOOOO
don't be generous
they're so good at ruining their own games
Only they announced it over a year before it came out.
@@ZiddersRooFurry Only imagine thinking that makes any difference. Clown.
Not only did the update delete all my mods, it also deleted my favourites list.
It just works...
Thanks Todd 👍
And thats why I stopped playing long ago, because they don't leave things we already enjoy alone...
I have to play offline to not download their updates, but then I can't use mods to fix the broken base game.
Just don't support them anymore
No more money for them.
Wait until games are on sale or something months later if you must play them.
the whole preorder and day one buys is what's making games worse and companies rich...
IT JUST WORKS!
@@RSAgility Completely agree, reality is now i probably won't play Fallout 4 for a very long time, maybe years.
Too much effort sorting all the mods out again for an old game.
And I'm with you with pre-ordering games. Absolutely no reason to do so in the digital age and is 100% the reason for today's janky, buggy releases.
Last game I pre-ordered was Snowrunner back in 2020 and vowed never too again.

@@smeggiamagarwine On Xbox series X so not exactly much choice but to use the in game mod browser
When Bethesda dropped the Skyrim patch in December that ruined mods, I thought it was just gross incompetence. When they did the exact same thing to Fallout 4 a few months later, I can't help but believe this is intentional and malicious.
It would have been courtesy on their side but why do they *have* to take mods into account? Saying it's malicious is just fan boy garbage.
@@tamfuwing1 because they're aware that mods are the single reason their games are popular in the first place and that's why they release mod-breaking updates to force people to use creation club?
@@tamfuwing1 We know, and Bethesda knows, that modding is what keeps their games relevant. It gives them much more replayability than they would otherwise have. Whenever a high-profile mod is made, it gives Bethesda a ton of free marketing.
Everybody wins.
Bethesda incompetently pissing in the face of modders is discourteous, to say the least.
Maintaining compatibility would've been trivial from a technical standpoint.
They're not malicious per se, but they've demonstrated a strict policy of pretending mods don't exist, even if it's idiotic and damages their own brand.
I've been wondering why I haven't been able to get mods to work on Skyrim. Any idea on how to work around it?

Because the show is (from what I've heard) decent/mid, whereas modders making what is essentially a new Fallout game is, at the veryleast, impressive. @@sambacchiochi7037
The worse thing about this is how it affected Fallout London. A group of passionate fans of Fallout who know more about making a game than a AAA studio felt the need to postpone their project because of Bethesda's incompetence
It's not a bug, it's feature. It's not a coincidence, it's intentional. Bethesda aren't selling it as overpriced DLC, so by video game studio logic, it's better if it's buried.
Don't forget fallout Miami, God knows how much longer its gonna take aswell sadly
Fallout London guy is quite a crybaby honestly. He should release it on pre-next gen version cause right now we will wait another year or two
Well I hope it's not another frontier mess like oh boy
They’ve known about it for 2 years, they can bitch and moan all they want, they knew about it for a while now
Leave it to Bethesda to basically win a lottery with the TV show reviving interest in Fallout, only to screw it up a few weeks later with their absurd incompetence. How do you make a next-gen update for a 9-year-old game 4 years into the consoles' generation and still eff it up?
actually its skill issues. Bethesda's reliance on the Creation Engine, one that was already out of date by the time they made skyrim held them back. Bethesda should just use Unreal Engine 5, it may cost a bit more but they'll be able to shorten the amount of time it would take to release the games. they should hire better talent and raise the bar higher on their games
@@fangslore9988Yet modders can make the shitty engine work
@@larb6314 true but its an old engine and bethesda don't exactly hire the best tallent, they're mainly a publisher than a developer with only currently 4 active IPs in their in-house studio they developed themselves with many others they simply published including but not limited to doom, Elder Scrolls Online, Redfall, Dishonored and a few others (Elder scrolls online is technically a Bethesda IP but it was made by Zenimax and published by Bethesda)
It took Bethesda almost two years to work on and drop an update for Fallout 4, which added very little content, very few fixes for bugs and also added some new bugs as well... Yet Obsidian only had 18 months to make New Vegas, which to this day stands as the best _Fallout_ game to date.
To say I'm disappointed would be correct, because I was sincerely hoping for tons of new content, similar to the level of content Skyrim got with its Creation Club and the Anniversary Edition.
I get it - Starfield was the main focus for Bethesda at the time, and almost all hands needed to be on deck for that game. But as we can all see, even Starfield turned out to be middling at best. Meanwhile, Fallout 76 gets feds like the proverbial holiday hog...
Bethesda on their way to casually break everything they touch
Bethesda try to be competent for 1 fucking second challenge (Impossible)
"Hmm, what was that quote again?... If it ain't broke, BREAK THE FUCK OUT OF IT!... Yeah, that's gotta be it."
I must be super lucky then. As a newish player with 0 mods the only thing that gets stuck is the loading screen, so I minimize the game then watch t and pull it back up and I'm good
It is not casual
@@GA-br8wj yeah it's professionally
Its funny, i remember reading an article saying that Bethesda wouldn't be able to update the mod limit on console because it would reset everyone's load orders. Now here we are with no limit change and the mods are broken anyways
(But the mods are still stored on their website, but was randomly cleared…
this i was so annoyed at this
like i would be able to cope with the lack of mods if it meant soon i can have 5-10GB, or even maybe 20
and the limit from 150 to 200 or 250?
just so i can have more mods to actually take up that space
They didn't do it because it would wipe peoples saved characters. but I wish they would've bc it's unplayable now.
How is Microsoft tolerating Bethesda failing this pathetically over and over? Are they going to make back those 7 billion through merch sales alone? If so, how are they going to sell merch if Bethesda ruined all their IP's? Keeping Bethesda as it is just makes Microsoft look worse in association.
Exactly, Microsoft should have the power to control the development of their Products and they have their own publishing studio/department/staff so why take on the cost of additional publishers like Actard and Bethesda Softworks.

You compared it to Cyberpunk 2.0, but I think a more accurate (and humiliating) comparison would be Witcher 3's Next Gen update. Not only was it a genuine update in both a graphical and gameplay sense, making the game look better and addressing numerous complaints about the balancing of certain systems, but it also included a fairly lengthy new quest... with full voice acting. No little text notes needed! It turns out, voice actors like to work, and will come back if you pay them. Shocking, I know!
While we're comparing things, I've heard it said that it would be too much trouble, or too iffy from a legal standpoint, for Bethesda to just fully incorporate fan created bug fixes or mods in their game. To that, I say: popular roguelike _The Binding of Isaac_ had an enormous fan-created overhaul known as Antibirth which launched right around the time of what was supposed to be the final version of the game. Rather than shut it down, Edmund McMillan got in touch with the mod authors and straight up hired them, and although it took a while, the result was _The Binding of Isaac: Repentance,_ an absolute masterpiece that included nearly double the content of any other version of the game, including Antibirth, and is regarded as the definitive version of the game.
Passion can be such a powerful tool if you are willing to do what it takes to harness and nurture it. There is so much passion around Bethesda's games, but like everything else they have, they don't know what to do with it.
@@theguybehindyou4762Probably because they’ve spat in our faces so many times. Even when someone is being intentionally malicious, they still won’t be happy when you’re critical of it.
ehhh, a little fanboy-y on the Repentance ride. It absolutely was not a masterpiece, it was buggy and unfair, and i don't think most people consider it the definitive edition, especially on launch lol
hiring modders or buying their work (as in, Bethesda should buy the fallout london work and release it as a dlc) should really happen more often.
Ain't no way bro called repentance a masterpiece 💀 I love Isaac but repentance is lowkey ass. Made the game way harder to the point Hutts, a pretty popular streamer, said it multiple times if you are just getting into isaac turn repentance off, because the game is way easier without it

I like a few small parts of the enclave content.
But getting assaulted by the enclave for doing existing creation quests reeks of "punished for playing the content you may or may not have paid for".
They added three magazines to grant "Enclave" settlement assets, but for some reason the better, more compact power armor station couldn't be one of them.
The genuinely new, makeshift weapons are neat, but getting ammo for them is basically impossible. I had to download a MOD to allow the crafting of the ammo, since enemies rarely spawn with the weapons and ammo, and, unlike the rest of the Creation weapons which use existing ammo types, you can't benefit from Scrounger when trying to get ammo for them.
Just more, half-baked content that the community has to fix later.
I was speaking to my friends about this whole update fiasco. During the discussion a term came up concerning Bethesda that I still think to this day
Uniquely incompetent
After the whole "we dont use design documents thing" and "lead writer makes main character accessory to war crimes on a whim, walks back after realizing it" I feel like they're very much stuck in an amateur group think mentality.
Where they can't ditch the way they've been doing things because they're clearly successfull, so improvements are discarded, and they've been doing it that way for so long that attempting to improve it feels out of reach.
Its like this weird vortex of incompetence and excellence and mediocrity that barely limps over the finish line just to be acceptable enough.
But I feel its going to catch up. Starfield was such a big disappointment.
@@dreukragthey’re literally just stuck in the past. Their games are pretty ground breaking and ambitious… for 2006.

They even tolerated us wasting Elder Scrolls 6's dev cycle on a shitty pay-to-win MMO that nobody asked for. How quickly do you suppose we could convert all these loyal fans into fanatically pissed off ex-customers who will never buy another of our games and how exactly would we go about doing this?"

I didn’t and won’t ever purchase Starfield, I just watched my friend play it once when it came out and that was more than enough for me. It’s funny that No Man’s Sky had a much smaller and inexperienced studio, an arguably worse launch- but they were still able to one up Bethesda before Starfield even released.
Can't believe you fell for Starfield. I get dicked over by them every time they do one of these updates, but I at least stick to the flagship games. 0 sympathy for Fallout 76 or ESO players either being real with you. Use your brains, people. At this rate I'll be pirating their major releases instead of buying them.

you should see what happened to some of the creation club content, which requires the latest update of the game to work.. the noir apartment or whatever its called had all of its textures removed and meshes messed up so when you finish the quest and get the key you enter it and everything around you except the doors are invisible; a lot of people bought it recently because it was on sale and now they cant even use it (me being one of them). Apart from that, you would think that they would implement a bullet counted reload system as a part of a "next gen" update, but no the game still treats one bullet missing as the entire gun needs to be emptied then reloaded, not to mention the BCR mod requires F4SE and a update by the creator of the mod to get it working and so far nothing. Leave it to Bethesda to actually downgrade a game when attempting to add content.
How anybody can continue to defend Bethesda just baffles me
They must either be willfully blind/ignorant or their IQ points are in the negatives.
The problem is that not everyone has the same history of being fucked over by Bethesda, especially now that there's a lot of new fans through the tv show.
Best thing we can do is telling them about all the shit Bethesda pulled over the years. If that doesn't convince them, there's absolutely no point...

You cannot convince me this wasn't Bethesda sabotaging mods like London, Arroyo, 4NV, Cascadia, and Miami just because they know those mods would be better received than the TV show. And that they released *another* update just a 2 days after F4SE got updated? And that Nexus mods suffers an outage on the day that happens? All just coincidence, I'm sure.
Because people lack basic mental function (in fairness, most people liked the TV show, so case in point), I don't actually think Bethesda nuked Nexus mods, and I know Next Gen 2 (stupid name) was only to fix the cascade of errors that came with the update, mostly on Xbox. But yes, the tinfoil has ballistic weave and a few legendary effects.
No. The TV show did pretty good regardless. I wouldn't put it past being suggested though.
Ehhhhhhhh normies wouldn't be interested immediately overhauling FO4 with massive mods.
I think the devs are just under strict orders not to acknowledge the existence of mods in any way whatsoever.
Doing so makes Bethesda look bad. Maintaining compatibility would be a wink to the modding scene, and we can't have that now can we.
Take off the tin-foil hat.
Apparently London's the only one that really got screwed over; seems the others planned around the release of the Fallout show, figuring Bethesda would pull something like this once it dropped.
Nexus mods suffering an outage because people flooded it to check for updated mods wasn't part of Bethesda's plan, and if Bethesda were capable of organizing something like that, they'd be capable of making better games than they do. And releasing another update to a massive patch none of the customers were happy with within a handful of days has nothing to do with F4SE also getting updated in that time; Bethesda's trying to do the bare minimum possible to keep their games selling, while F4SE's dev is always playing catch-up because he can't know what Bethesda's going to break in each update until it drops.

@@Leeloo-Foxx man u can explai how do that pleasee🥲
fallout4/mods/81471?tab=description so, ya know.
regardless. new vegas is a trillion times better than literally anything bethesda has ever put out.
They plan to wreck New Vegas with an update too last I heard. Good luck. I'm off this shit completely for now.
What’s even worse is that Series S and X already had 60 FPS through the Xbox FPS Boost program. I had absolutely 0 performance issues on Series X prior to the update and now we’re plagued with constant stuttering and frame rate drops. Leave it to Bethesda to break something that wasn’t broken beforehand. And to add insult to injury, the follow up update addressed literally none of the reported performance issues. All it did was add models to the shitty creation content they didn’t bother to play test. Lazy as fuck
There were two main points to Bethesda releasing this next gen update for Fallout 4: one was to kill off people being able to play Fallout London (which likely would have had more players than the original); and second was to drive new players brought in by the Fallout TV show who would be frustrated by Fallout 4 and re-direct then to play Bethesda's cash cow Fallout 76. Both games received huge updates at about the same time: Fallout 4 got a broken, wonky, unplayable update, while Fallout 76 got a beautiful. pristine update. And the whole reason that the Fallout 4 next gen update was delayed a year was to time breaking the game with the influx of fans from the TV show.
It's not all bad. Fallout 4 now runs at a marginally higher FPS on my computer!
Oh and it took me two days fixing my mod load order and I had to disable or Uninstall half of my mods and I had to make a new save
Bethesda could barely operate a single macdonalds franchise at this point
I can't even access mods now.
I've lost all hope for Bethesda. They KNEW this was going to happen. Should've just scrapped the update for a 9 year old game and offered free creation club stuff. Or offered a free-play weekend for all the new players coming in.
hell, the new content in this update could have been creation club content, even the next gen graphical changes
I honestly feel like Bethesda resents mods for their games. They can't come out and say it because of how many people they would royaly piss off, but everything seems to suggest it.
That must be why they continually release modding tools for their games.
The Brotherhood's entrance is *still* tied to using a particular console when NPC reactions to the arrival are tied to completing a quest that doesn't require touching that console. Also companions still die if you take the veribird to it. These two bugs should have been fixed in the first patch, not still in the game after 10 years.
You can go over 60 FPS in Morrowind with OpenMW.
Bethesda never ceases to impress me
Bethesda is a smoking pile of shit by now. If TES6 ever releases and it sucks they are dead.
If Bethesda didnt call FO4 an "rpg" i wouldnt have to hate it so much
I KNOOOOOW RIGHT?!?! I’ve been trying to describe the concept of “fake” RPG’s to my friends for years. Fallout 4 is the perfect example of one.
If I was in charge of this shit, I’d do something like a “I want you!” event where the authors of the most popular bug fixes/graphics mods were talked to and asked if they would let the mods be added into the base game
Lmao no they just steal the code for the next installment of their games. They don't ask.
Valve used this same exact strategy to make Counter-Strike, Portal, and TF2. I dont understand why more games studios don't do this, especially Bethesda
after this update, the frame rate began to drop randomly to 30 every five to seven seconds
it's quite a funny situation to me that you can find relatively great story mod in FO4 but in FNV it's the other way around, it's hard to find a mod with story as good as the main game
It's unbelievable. They fuck up EVERY SINGLE THING THEY DO.
