Fallout 76 - online Fallout spinoff from Bethesda - now on Steam with Wastelanders NPC expansion

[Vyvian]

It was a mistake to add human NPCs to the game. Ruined the entire feel that I actually enjoyed of being one of like two living people left in a desolate wasteland of monsters and unchecked AI.

 

[Myobi]

it's perfectly acceptable for what it is, a looter shooter exploration game.

A looter shooter where you spend more time micro managing your loot than actually looting or shooting because the tiny ass storage limitations set in place to push you into buying their dumb ass subscriptions.

"Perfectly acceptable" for any crayon muncher with no standards like you.

 

[Fedora Master]

I didn't say it was bad

But it is.

Did you play it?

I don't play terrible games.

 

[Fedora Master]

Because it's perfectly acceptable for what it

Okay retard

Did you play it?

I don't play terrible games.

But how can you know a game is terrible if you didn't play it?

You know, I never played the original game at launch, how was it?

As a game it felt much the same except there weren't random NPCs wandering around, building houses or quest/storyline NPCs at all. Everything story related had already happened for the most part and you were basically picking through the ashes trying to figure out what the hell happened to everyone.

AI like the one in Grafton were pretty much the only things that were "alive".

ftfy.

The absurdly limited inventory space is what really killed it for me. It should be a solo game, there’s barely any human interaction anyway. It's more like Fallout 4.1, with absolutely no improvements compared to it, and it definitely doesn't deserve an ESO+ like subscription just to stash your loot

>mfw your "massive multiplayer" game can only hold 24 players per server in a world that's 4x the size of Fallout 4

Yeah, you're begging for players to not interact at that point.

 

[Drakortha]

You need an ESO+ subscription to stash your loot as well.

Instead of providing anything of value they put artificial limits on gameplay to the point of inconvenience. Bethesda want to make money by milking their customers but this the best idea they could come up with. The most profit for the lowest amount of effort on their part as possible.

>Fallout76 has 220 pages of discussion on the Codex

I've been interacting with absolute retards for the last 6 years... fucking MMORPG brainrot, goyslop consuming retards.
At this point I don't even blame the Jews anymore, they're absolutely right, the goyim are cattle.
I'm converting to Judaism, fuck you guys!
Infinitron Hook me up with a rabbi bro.

 

[Myobi]

fucking MMORPG brainrot, goyslop consuming retards.

Did you just called a shitty video game with a max capacity of 24 fucking players a "Massive Multiplayer Online" game while accusing everyone else of being fucking retard?

... well, you do have a point, I guess.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

>Fallout76 has 220 pages of making fun of on the Codex

ftfy.

 

[Vyvian]

The online landscape of gaming is grim, especially in the MMO sphere where even simple multiplayer games like Fallout 76 can claim a place.
We basically have FFXIV and WoW as the top dogs and both of them are ancient in videogame years and both are really showing their age in recent years with nothing on the horizon to take their place.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

WoW as the top dogs and both of them are ancient in videogame years and both are really showing their age

vov has always been the most vanillaestest mmorpg ever, it added NOTHING, it improved NOTHING, it had only the name and the chinese bots numbers to push for it.

It never did anything more than the other games, exactly like all Blizzard games. Exploration was better in EverQuest and DAOC, and those were also very atmospheric. Player interaction was better in UO. The secret is that it was easy to pick up, very polished, and fun as every ANCIENT blizzard games were. It’s terrible to see that it’s still the big dog, and there’s absolutely nothing else taking its place.

"MMO" is now synonymous with "Online game that lots of people play". I blame Steam. They tag most games with half a dozen genres now. Suddenly every game is everything with complete ambiguity.

Only developers and Steam users can apply tags to games, and when enough players tag a game with say, "Immersive Sim, " that game will start popping up in the search results.
Steam moderators CAN also tag specific games but rarely has this ever happened from my understanding.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

Maaan, the original tags system had so much potential before they butchered it.

The limited inventory keeps the economy from getting too zonked at least. People usually only have a couple good pieces of gear to sell that are worth the shelf space. The rest leaves the game by being left behind or exchanged to the closest vending machines for scrip (weightless currency used to gamble for other items). Ammo and chems always sell but everyone has a stockpile so you have to sell it for minimum price.

 

[deuxhero]

Did the Atlanatic City area have anything interesting lore or visualwise?

Ammo sells... but who's buying?
I thought ammo was fucking worthless, and you are better off chucking that shit in the donations box or using the Ammo Converter.
Until I got the Bandolier Perk, I was carrying almost fuck all ammo, like 30-40 for single-shot guns and a bit more for the automatic stuff.

 

[PunchYouInTheFace]

Ammo sells... but who's buying?

People with maxed caps, early level players. As long as you're willing to sell for 1 caps. Other than that fluxes sells like a hot donut at least last year when the sweatiest thing people would do is killing SBQ.
