Fallout 76

[duckbutta]

Have any of y'all actually played the game? Starting to sound like Reddit, a big circle jerk of people dissing the game without even playing it.

Because people who have played fallout games know that the things that make fallout great don't really lend themselves to an online game...

One of the biggest things that keep people coming back to fallout games is mods...and obviously as an online only game...this won't have very many...so unlike other fallout games where i know eventually so much extra user content is going to come out I will be able to change virtually every aspect of a fallout game to suit my needs...not going to happen with this game...

Another big thing is the lore of the game...it's pretty much impossible for the BOS to be in this game if you follow the canon of the series but since you have power armor in the game you have to have the BOS in the game...so right off the bat the game isn't even following traditional fallout lore...

Fallout has a TON of npc's and a TON of dialog...but Bethesda had stated multiple times that they made it a point to not have a lot of npc's in this game...

So it's pretty much a fallout game with a lot of stuff stripped out of it...but still called a fallout game...

Like I said I will cop a year or two from now when it is an offline game because I haven't seen any positive takes on this game ANYWHERE...

Minus some more points for doing the whole save player one campaign and then releasing a multiplayer game...

All these lazy fukks had to do was replace the BOS with Enclave and they could still have power armor in the game.

Bethesda is just using the BOS as a mascot to move merchandise for the dumb casuals who don't know anything about Fallout lore.

These dudes sound just like the people that hate battlefield 5 without ever playing the game because of stupid shyt like character creation.

The game is just a multiplayer spinoff game but these nikkas will swear that this is fallout 5 or something.

Most people that have played it has said the game is fun for what it is. Gamers are just a bunch of babies that cry about everything now.

 

[Anti-Anime]

Imagine if this is a big success because of the brain dead casual gamers and they throw all their single player games in the bushes

Because if this game is a success Bethesda is going to continue to have fallout move away from what made it great in the first place. This would also give them more incentive to make Fallout 5 an online game and not focus on the story or single player experience.

Plus they are charging $60 for essentially a beta game and they are asking fans to be patient about a game the majority of Fallout fans didn't want in the first place. If you play on PC you have to use their launcher and if the game sucks you can't get a refund.

People streaming the 2 hour beta on Twitch. Ready to watch this trash.

This is complete bullshyt.

There is no proof that Bethesda is looking to move away from a single player experience even if the game is a success. Just like elder scrolls online was not a test to turn the series into an mmo. Show me where Bethesda said they want to turn the fallout series into multiplayer games.

It's a multiplayer spinoff game and nothing more, yall need to stop with these ridiculous ass theorys. Yall starting to sound stupid as fukk hoping this game fails over these unproven allegations.

Did you not play Fallout 4?

Like another person said Fallout 4 was a test run for this game.

Bethesda already removed a lot of RPG elements for Fallout 4. Fallout 4 is essentially a shooter with light RPG mechanics.

Plus Bethesda is not going to allow another developer to work on Fallout so they can essentially fukk up the lore and continue to move the game away from being a true RPG.

The worst part about this game is that it pushes Fallout 5 back even further. Starfield is next in line and then Elders Scrolls 6. We won't see Fallout 5 for probably a decade.

The time they spent on this cash grab they could have spent developing Fallout 5 or even Elder Scrolls 6.

Yes I did play fallout 4 and just like I said earlier in the thread, the hate for that game is unwarranted. They didnt remove that much RPGs elements from the game and actually added a bunch of rpg shyt regardless of how you felt about those elements. Just because they made it actually fun to play doesn't mean the game is a straight up first person shooter. People love bringing up new Vegas when that game got shytted on at release too, yall nikkas are just babies who love complaining about everything.

If there's any reason for Bethesda not letting another developer work on another fallout game, it probably because of the initial reaction to NV when it released so blame crybaby ass gamers such as yourself for that.

Fallout 76 was already in development before fallout 4 released and Bethesda has said they dont plan on releasing another one until they have a new engine so fallout 5 was always gonna release after ES6 and starfield.

Everything you've said is bullshyt groundless allegations, Bethesda has never shown an interest in moving away from single player games.

Give examples of RPG elements Bethesda added to Fallout 4.

The entire settlement aspect.




Show me where Bethesda has said they want to make fallout a multiplayer series.

The entire settlement aspect.

The settlement aspect is not RPG elements.

That shyt is for the minecraft crowd. The settlers are useless. At the most they can be assigned to shops, provisioners, and defense. That's it. No unique qualities or abilities.

The settlers can't even defend themselves. The game tells you to go back and protect them. Even if you put a million laser turrets and rocket launchers all over the settlements and arm them with good weapons.

Now if they added special stats to the settlers and they had perks that can help or hinder settlement building progress.

They already added special stats to the settlers in Fallout Shelter.

Why didn't they do it for the settlers in Fallout 4?


The whole settlement system is bland and soulless just like Fallout 76. Mods from Nexus are the only thing that saves settlements.

If Bethesda's shareholders/execs want to turn Fallout into a multiplayer series they will. And they are calling the shots on this game. They see how much money Rockstar made with GTA Online and they want to jump in on the action.

 

[Redguard]

This shyt doesn't even make any sense.

What's even worse is the tweets defending this bullshyt.

The ability to build and control your own settlements is the very definition of role playing.


Simplifying the conversation system doesnt make it a first person shooter.

Just cause the gameplay is serviceable instead of a broken buggy mess doesnt make it a first person shooter.

What rpg elements did they get away with that makes it less of a fallout game? People complain about quest having you go somewhere and either collect something, talk to somebody, or kill somebody. That the same shyt you did in fallout 3 and NV.


You still have yet to show where Bethesda said they are pushing the series towards multiplayer because Todd Howard has said that its simply it's own thing and not the plans for future titles.

Bethesda’s Todd Howard Says He’s Sometimes Afraid of Fallout 76 Going Multiplayer

"We want to be careful with our fans and other people who ask, ‘Is this what Fallout is for ever now?’”, Howard told The Guardian. ”It’s clearly not. It’s definitely its own thing,” he stressed. “We had the idea, and for a while now we’ve been thinking we should try it"


So tell me exactly where you heard that this was the future of the series or are you just pulling shyt outta your ass.
