No one who is into the old Fallout Games and New Vegas is the target audience anymore. I don't know why people expect anything from Bethesda or Fallout just because it shares the same franchise as the old games. The suits don't care, Bethesda doesn't care, its about money and jumping on the newest gaming trend with a well-known franchise. For most people Fallout isn't interconnected with any of the old RPG mechanics, its just the gimmick of the whole post apocaliptic America thingy and power armor. Why would I care, or get mad? If I want more Fallout like stuff I just play Underrail or ATOM. Not that I expect anything out of Bethesda anymore, their RPGs at least had the redeeming factor of being a platform with a great modding community, it would seem that this is a thing of the past as well.

Someone that will LOVE Fallout 76 seems more butthurt than people who make fun of it. :lol:

Like I said before, everything related to Fallout 76 just makes me laugh :lol:.

I watched a preview video about F76.
It's just a spin off, a cheap game (asset are reused a lot from F4, no camera animation during dialogue because there is no dialogue, same gameplay...) to make us wait for the next game. They'll make fun of this game in a future E3. Mark my word.

This is very true the modding is what kept many people interested in their games without this they practically have nothing of interest.

Bitching about a "competitive advantage" in a game which actively punishes hostile players and is hardly competitive is dumb. If they don't have to wipe progress during a beta or even alpha test, they shouldn't. Also, fuck that guy for making a 11 minute long video for something that could've been said in under two.

PvP servers will likely come out of people wanting to kill each other more freely. Not soon but eventually is my prediction.

Mate. I appreciate the laughs, but it's also getting a bit sad. Not to mention it is clogging the thread.

Don't take it too seriously, being so butthurt or angry is not good for your health. Why do you care so much what others think of something ridiculous as a videogame?
Aren't you the one that will LOVE the game? So why are you so angry at those that will not? Does others not liking it makes you lose your enjoyment of Fallout 76? It shouldn't, so if it does, maybe it is not as enjoyable as you first though.

Look, this is how you should post in a thread about something you will LOVE but others don't seem to:
  • Post about good aspects of the game.
  • Post about what in the game is exciting for you.
  • Post about what you hope the game will offer.
  • Post about features you want them to add/remove in the future.
  • Post about ideas for future DLCs.
  • Post about what kind of character you will want to make.
  • Post about what kind of camp/base you hope you can make.
  • Post about what you plan to do with your friends in the game.
  • Etc.
By doing those things above, you might be able to attract other people who think the same as you into this thread, and actually talk about the game. As things are now, this thread is mostly negative towards the game and might make others that like what they saw not want to post.
Also, since you would be talking about actual things, it would be much harder for others to dismiss, ignore or counter your points.

As you are now, you're just a troll, so people will not give you the time of the day.

Unless you're a real troll... Then... Well.... Then I applaud you sir, you definitely got me there.

I really do not understand why they did not go the "normal" way ; this feels like a game that is neither Fortnite nor Fallout nor Rust nor anything, while summoning elements from all these various games. It feels like a mess without identity. They could have taken the easy route and make a classic MMO, basically the Fallout version of Elder Scrolls Online. It would probably have been just an average MMO, but the Fallout fanbase would have bitten and it would have made a lot of money.

Is this just a rush job ? Was the "NO NPC" born more of a Zenimax time constraint than a design choice ?

Todd Howard's Sex Dungeon - Send Help
My theory, they wouldn't let Todd make Starfield unless he shit out this game and TES 6. I'm going to go with that Todd probably knew the idea was bad but figured he had to make this crap in order to make the actual game he's wanted to make since before Morrowind. Because Todd has gone on record in the past stating that his games wouldn't work in Multiplayer so why did he suddenly change his opinion?

this game is developed by a new studio, and game director is some other dude, not Todd. Todd is basically bethesda's frontman.

hurr this gmae looks STOOPID rite guys?

brofist pls

No, man, it looks awesome. Always wanted to teabag deathclaws and take selfies with my online bros.

:lol: Bethestards as usual are the most easy to butthurt of all fanbots.

And you'd think braindead people would be immune to emotions.

Like seriously, is there any other group that goes to the length of creating revenge trolling threads? "Imma show you guys not liking my favourite games! I'm gonna make fun of your games now! Hahahaha!"
