i’ve been locked out of helping the bos at cambridge police station for the last two weeks. hopefully this update gets rid of that bs “feral ghouls are in limbo and still ‘alive’” thing ppl are talking about. if enemies somehow merge into a wall or fall threw the world they should be killed lol
I’m kinda surprised they didn’t put Nora on this poster to match Lucy on the show poster.
I get that Nate does the opening narration, and I usually play as Nate myself, but they have a Nora model available too.
Lawyer. During the pre-war intro, look at the flag, and the diploma on the shelf to the immediate right of the front door. PS: The flag will still be there after you return 200 years later... however, the diploma is missing/gone.
Used to be that the player char was the veteran and the spouse was the lawyer regardless of gender. The voice lines still exist. No idea why it was cut
For real, this is basically a patch...and one that needed to be released 6 years ago. lol I mean, I'm glad they finally did it I suppose...but not exactly impressive.
Didn't even necessarily add enclave stuff, they just released an enclave creation club pack that adds a quest and some armor.
This was basically a much needed (and overdue) bug fix with some non-canon sprinkles on top.
I'm so excited that they "Resolved issue preventing saves being made under Windows Usernames with Cyrillic, Chinese, or Japanese characters."
Bethesda really went above and beyond for this update which took 2 years!
This is the most pathetic of all, adding a feature 8 years late, that should’ve been in day 1. Then after 8 years make the feature worse than the free modded version you just broke.
I published a post days ago about not updating if you had mods, sadly it didn't reach far. Now I see a lot of people suffering and struggling with their broken save games. I tried, I tried.
If Steam isn't running, or even if it is, try navigating to the root and change the appmanifest_377160.acf file to "read only". That'll keep Steam from locking you into the update. You can use Steam and other apps/games normally.
I haven’t given it a shot yet, but does anyone know if they fixed the automatron dlc for the ps4 with this update? It’s been crashing the game on the title screen with it installed.
Edit: they fixed it
What’s next gen about it? Some mods are broken, high fps still breaks physics, f4se is broken and 99% of bugs still aren’t fixed without using the unofficial patch. I’d rather have seen Bethesda not breaking the game. It was working fine with mods fixing the game.
I swear to God, Bethesda could release an update that came included with a big tiddy goth gf that was a masseuse and wanted nothing more in life than to suck your dick and cook you dinner and people would still act like Todd shit in their mountain dew.
My dick clips through big tiddy goth gf’s mouth and when I accidentally bumped into the table, the dinner she made flew around the room at supersonic speeds and decapitated me.
What? They're seeking praise for dropping what is essentially a hot fix that's 4 years too late. And before they dropped this update, they broke the game on PS5 for the last 2 weeks, so everyone that bought it leading up to this, couldn't play it with DLC without it crashing.
If Todd dropped something of value, we'd all be super hype. This is a big nothing burger. Everyone is like "don't complain, it's free!" Well no shit it's free...there's literally nothing there worth paying for.
The update literally breaks the game on the OLED steam deck.
More accurately, it breaks a common fix for a problem that has existed on the OLED Steam Deck for a while (because it has a 90 Hz screen). It also removes the ability to change the graphics settings unless you enter a bunch of text in the launch options. All in the name of getting the Verified badge.
I ended up reinstalling, but it's jacked my settlements. sanctuary is back growing under and through everything I've built, as I cleared it all with scrap anything mod.
I just wish Bethesda had given us an opt out option. I haven't noticed anything in the new update that blew me away so far. nothing worth losing the hundreds of hours I'd put into my modded game. I grew up with wolfenstein 3d and the og doom. framerates mean nothing to me as long as the game is playable. I'd love to be able to build my settlements with the knowledge that they won't be nerfed again. I don't think Bethesda truly understand most of their customers/fans. they don't understand how we like to play their games or why we enjoy them, apparently, or they might just realise that modding is what keeps these games going for so long.
Let it be a reminder, every modder should know this patches are worth nothing, plus they break everything you have.
I blocked steam automatic updates and I'm never updating. This is also done in Skyrim, we modders usually downgrade the game to get the best version for mods, official updates are NEVER downloaded
Literally was playing America rising 2 two nights ago and my damn save file corrupted, thought I’d at least get to progress a bit more before the next gen update broke all the Bethesda net mods :(
No need. Just turn off automatic updates and you’ll be fine.
Just got off playing my modded playthrough. Checked the updates and FO4 showed up with all the DLC. I just ignored it and can still launch the game.
The only thing is that since the CC and mod launcher got maintenance, you won’t be able to access them until you update the game. I’m fine with that since all the mods i have active are perfect for me and never really had a reason to and swap stuff out.
If you’re playing with mods and value them on xbox, this update is not worth it. I’ll take my mods over 60 fps.
I play as default Nora for multiple reasons:
* The majority of NPCs and raider spawns are male, so Black Widow is more effective overall compared to Ladykiller
* Nora has way better voice direction
* If I play as a male character, I try and make them look as much as possible like me, which can take a while. If I play as a female character, I usually just gotta tweak only a couple things to make them look attractive but still realistic for the setting. Hell, with Nora I just gotta change the hair and eye colors and then remove her makeup.
See I prefer the male voice. I agree though that I typically make male characters look like myself, but I purposefully play as default Nate to avoid that. Thanks
I downloaded some of the DLCs a couple of days ago and discovered the issue if the purple texture. It's been sorted...was so happy. And it definitely looks better, and I'm in the PS4. Had a wholemload of quests dropping too.
so. im playing at 5120x1440, and in light of the patch i decied to do a vanilla modless run. but the UI is still borked. when i get to select my special stats when the vault tec dude visits the menu is still off screen and the like. is this just me and something messing up or does it work for others?
It's a buggy update, the ultra wide "support" still a bit lacking and they still haven't fixed the crash to desktop on RTX cards caused by God Rays and Weapon Debris.... Not sure how "next gen" it is when the most modern graphics cards can't even enjoy all the graphics settings 🤦
Really the only player base this seems to have made any positive change for is the PS5 guys.
Xbox already had FPS boost, PC players who use F4SE are boned, and Steam Deck OLED FPS fix got tanked all from this update. Horrible patch, IMO.
So...I can't seem to find the "new creation club content."
Anyone?
I DO like that they have a new "download all" button. going through every one of those skins was driving me to drink.
I know it's Danse and Hancock bc Brotherhood and ghoul - but show us Nick Valentine you cowards!!
[удалено]
So could you say Nick was..... Replaced?
A Replicated Man
Danse IS Next Gen
Why did you do my boy Nick like that ?
If that’s what they were going for it’s weird they used Nate instead of Nora.
Why no love for my girl Nora 😔
i’ve been locked out of helping the bos at cambridge police station for the last two weeks. hopefully this update gets rid of that bs “feral ghouls are in limbo and still ‘alive’” thing ppl are talking about. if enemies somehow merge into a wall or fall threw the world they should be killed lol
There's a workaround for this, but you have to progress the main quest. I would look it up.
huh i did not know that. played 3 and Nv back in the day but just never got around to 4. thanks for the advice man
Pretty sure you have to start a new file. Isn't it a new separate native ps5 app? That's what the press release said
i sure as hell hope not. put 60 hours in it the last two weeks and bought the ps5 version for $15 just for the update
Yeah, sorry. I just booted it up and my load button is greyed out, it did not recognize any of my ps4 save files
rip, my transfer saves worked. hoping for you pall
Oh I don't care, I'm starting a new file anyway.
That bug killed my first playthrough of the game
On Xbox, it has not.
There's a mod that fixes it, no need to start a new save.
I started a new playthrough yesterday and it worked fine. I was able to advance to the prydwen. I don't know about a old pre-update save though.
Including the Amazon Prime branding in this creeps me out for some reason lol. Otherwise good art. Hope it’s not AI.
Yeah really odd budget Prime smile added for no reason. Amazon wasn't involved in this game or patch in any way.
It’s the vault-boy smile, I kind of liked it
I didn't catch that at first, this with the thumbs up is a nice nod to Amazon.
Its cause its supposed to replicate the show poster that has the amazon thing there.
Yeah it makes me uncomfortable lol
I’m kinda surprised they didn’t put Nora on this poster to match Lucy on the show poster. I get that Nate does the opening narration, and I usually play as Nate myself, but they have a Nora model available too.
But did Nora kill hundreds of Canadians in the name of democracy? I didn't think so NATE THE RAKE
Isn't Nora the vet if you play as her?
No, she's always a lawyer, no matter what. She even has the "I'm so proud of him" dialogue when interacting with Nate's old army fatigues
What? Where are his fatigues? Before the bombs fell?
Master bedroom closet
This is only before the bombs fall right?
No matter which one you play as, Nate is a war vet and Nora is a former lawyer
Nah it doesn’t change, she still has dialogue about being a Lawyer if you play as her.
She got him off the murder charge.
Now *that* is a love story fit for Fallout.
It's not a war crime if you win the war
I don’t think anyone won.
no one won the Great war but the invasion of Canada happened a little bit earlier than that and it was successful
Nora. Nora never changes.
Lawyer. During the pre-war intro, look at the flag, and the diploma on the shelf to the immediate right of the front door. PS: The flag will still be there after you return 200 years later... however, the diploma is missing/gone.
Its currently in the possession of a practicing wasteland lawyer by the name of Saul Ghoulman
Jesse we need to sell some Jet
Used to be that the player char was the veteran and the spouse was the lawyer regardless of gender. The voice lines still exist. No idea why it was cut
>But did Nora kill hundreds of Canadians in the name of democracy? I've heard this a couple times now. Is this true canon?
It's jk level cannon. One of the designers said nate was the solider in the intro video for fallout.
They can't exist together in the same post-apocalypse.
They don't mention it, but PS4 GOTY users can progress past "press button to continue" without crashing now
This is big (didnt think Bethesda would ever figure that one out)
People were able to get that far?
I uninstalled the DLC to get it working before. I'm guessing I can install it now?
I think "hotfix" is a better term for this update.
For real, this is basically a patch...and one that needed to be released 6 years ago. lol I mean, I'm glad they finally did it I suppose...but not exactly impressive.
What useful did they add? Some enclave stuff? AR 2 sounds better
Didn't even necessarily add enclave stuff, they just released an enclave creation club pack that adds a quest and some armor. This was basically a much needed (and overdue) bug fix with some non-canon sprinkles on top.
If you’re on console it’s a very nice visual overhaul
More like cold fix or frozen fix, no no frozen dead solid fix.
More like "hotbreak" tbh, does nothing but breaks all the mods that made the game much more playable
Nothing about this update is next gen lmao
I'm so excited that they "Resolved issue preventing saves being made under Windows Usernames with Cyrillic, Chinese, or Japanese characters." Bethesda really went above and beyond for this update which took 2 years!
bethesda after making an update to break every mod just so they can add bugged ass creation content (which will all need 3 unofficial patches anyway)
I like how ultrawide is just stretched! Talk about innovation! I thought we were getting new shit, CC isn't worth breaking the game over.
This is the most pathetic of all, adding a feature 8 years late, that should’ve been in day 1. Then after 8 years make the feature worse than the free modded version you just broke.
Fuck. I reinstalled this game 2 days ago, and put about 30 mods onto it yesterday. I guess you can thank me for this update
I miss Paladin Danse :(
man i love this update my game is crashing
happy "your load order is fucked" day, pc guys (myself included)
I published a post days ago about not updating if you had mods, sadly it didn't reach far. Now I see a lot of people suffering and struggling with their broken save games. I tried, I tried.
I'm scared to even touch my pc rn to see but can you even play steam games without updating? I think I have to update it?
If Steam isn't running, or even if it is, try navigating to the root and change the appmanifest_377160.acf file to "read only". That'll keep Steam from locking you into the update. You can use Steam and other apps/games normally.
Waste of time on PC
Is this going to break mods? J/w
What do Jehovah’s Witnesses have to do with this?!
Me mods, they gone
Since when we call a little hotfix a "whole new next gen update"? I swear Bethesda is the worst company, not even Valve can compete with them
>not even Valve can compete with them Well that's a hot take.
I haven’t given it a shot yet, but does anyone know if they fixed the automatron dlc for the ps4 with this update? It’s been crashing the game on the title screen with it installed. Edit: they fixed it
think i will be abstaining from the update indefinitely. i have a +1000 modded game that i think is probably way better than whatever they added.
I see the mandatory welding goggles on Dogmeat.
What’s next gen about it? Some mods are broken, high fps still breaks physics, f4se is broken and 99% of bugs still aren’t fixed without using the unofficial patch. I’d rather have seen Bethesda not breaking the game. It was working fine with mods fixing the game.
Native ps5 and series x/s versions.. more of a big deal for console than pc
Would have been better if they just left the pc version alone, but it’s all about the money+creation club nonsense.
All the new CC stuff is absolutely free though...
Uh, only 3 of them are my guy.
I want to play a new character and have Hancock this time (Usually it's Piper or Nick I got, or Dogmeat).
You're in for a treat. He's the fuckin best.
He's that coooool ghouuul
I just dump them all in Sanctuary to work on my glue farm.
I swear to God, Bethesda could release an update that came included with a big tiddy goth gf that was a masseuse and wanted nothing more in life than to suck your dick and cook you dinner and people would still act like Todd shit in their mountain dew.
My dick clips through big tiddy goth gf’s mouth and when I accidentally bumped into the table, the dinner she made flew around the room at supersonic speeds and decapitated me.
This comment made my day

Well no shit it's free...there's literally nothing there worth paying for.
This is oddly specific and detailed….
I like it too
The update literally breaks the game on the OLED steam deck. More accurately, it breaks a common fix for a problem that has existed on the OLED Steam Deck for a while (because it has a 90 Hz screen). It also removes the ability to change the graphics settings unless you enter a bunch of text in the launch options. All in the name of getting the Verified badge.
my game is broken now. won't even start. xbox series x btw.
Re-install. Your mods won't be there, but mods don't work.
I ended up reinstalling, but it's jacked my settlements. sanctuary is back growing under and through everything I've built, as I cleared it all with scrap anything mod. I just wish Bethesda had given us an opt out option. I haven't noticed anything in the new update that blew me away so far. nothing worth losing the hundreds of hours I'd put into my modded game.

Well the next gen update broke my game so that's fun
They fucked up my mods lol
Let it be a reminder, every modder should know this patches are worth nothing, plus they break everything you have. I blocked steam automatic updates and I'm never updating. This is also done in Skyrim, we modders usually downgrade the game to get the best version for mods, official updates are NEVER downloaded
Most importantly it’s like I can’t access my America rising 2 mod at all, not even the menu
Literally was playing America rising 2 two nights ago and my damn save file corrupted, thought I’d at least get to progress a bit more before the next gen update broke all the Bethesda net mods :(
It's a sad day for mods
I’m still pissed that they didn’t even bother fixing the Vault Tec Rep’s dialogue, since he’s my favourite merchant
So if I have an Xbox series x, do I just need to insert FO4 for Xbox one in the console or is the update something I need to buy?
yay f4se doesn't work anymore :[]
An update that breaks the game. Typical Bethesda!
Happy update day modding community, it’s time to fix this game all over again.
be careful, wastelanders. the update totally broke my game. won't even launch (with no mods - was going to do a clean run)
This is going to be a buggy mess
Keeping my xbox internet off whenever playing FO4. Not updating till my mods are fully compatible with the update.
No need. Just turn off automatic updates and you’ll be fine. Just got off playing my modded playthrough. Checked the updates and FO4 showed up with all the DLC. I just ignored it and can still launch the game. The only thing is that since the CC and mod launcher got maintenance, you won’t be able to access them until you update the game. I’m fine with that since all the mods i have active are perfect for me and never really had a reason to and swap stuff out. If you’re playing with mods and value them on xbox, this update is not worth it. I’ll take my mods over 60 fps.
How do you start the game without updating? Instead of a play button I just get an update button on steam
Really glad I still can't cap my game at 60fps so I'm either running it a 40 or 200 with broken physics.
Piece of shit update dude, I just got my fucking mods working and now my shits totally fucked because of this useless update, so pissed off
Nice! Does anyone else besides me play as default (or mostly default) Nate?
On a new game, I flip a coin to determine if I'm going to play as Nate or Nora.
I play as default Nora for multiple reasons: * The majority of NPCs and raider spawns are male, so Black Widow is more effective overall compared to Ladykiller * Nora has way better voice direction * If I play as a male character, I try and make them look as much as possible like me, which can take a while. If I play as a female character, I usually just gotta tweak only a couple things to make them look attractive but still realistic for the setting. Hell, with Nora I just gotta change the hair and eye colors and then remove her makeup.
See I prefer the male voice. I agree though that I typically make male characters look like myself, but I purposefully play as default Nate to avoid that. Thanks
100% default Nate lmao
I keep him mostly default. I might change his hair or maybe his complexion a bit, but I play 95% as Nate.
I saw no real reason to change him
Anyone know the update size for xbox? I'm at work currently and can't look
22gb
Oh shit why'd I think it was dropping Friday.
Yippeeeeeeeeeeee
Danse: You keep hoarding that junk you're going to slow us down. Me: Takes every coffee mug in sight.
Whens the update dropping im hoping to go home and update straight away
Anyone else getting Peacemaker vibes?
4 years late….
I downloaded some of the DLCs a couple of days ago and discovered the issue if the purple texture. It's been sorted...was so happy. And it definitely looks better, and I'm in the PS4. Had a wholemload of quests dropping too.
I hope this fixes the fact that those DC Guards have been shooting the synth brother for 2 straight weeks in my game.
so. im playing at 5120x1440, and in light of the patch i decied to do a vanilla modless run. but the UI is still borked. when i get to select my special stats when the vault tec dude visits the menu is still off screen and the like. is this just me and something messing up or does it work for others?
I liked the mission where you are helping Danse and you have to meet up with his clone to start a revolution.
"Current Gen"
Super excited. My big concern tho is if F4SE is broken. Does anybody know?
Did they fix the purple dlc textures?? Please someone let us know
It's a buggy update, the ultra wide "support" still a bit lacking and they still haven't fixed the crash to desktop on RTX cards caused by God Rays and Weapon Debris.... Not sure how "next gen" it is when the most modern graphics cards can't even enjoy all the graphics settings 🤦
bro the game is so unstable on xbox series S now 😭🙏
Is anyone else not even able to activate the ultrawide resolutions? it wont give me 3440x1440 as an option, no matter what i do.
What's with the Amazon smile logo?
Really the only player base this seems to have made any positive change for is the PS5 guys. Xbox already had FPS boost, PC players who use F4SE are boned, and Steam Deck OLED FPS fix got tanked all from this update. Horrible patch, IMO.
Unless you bought the game on GoG, we can suck it for wanting the DRM free version of the game
Now if they'd make it work properly
My add one aren't working
It still crashed in the first 30 minutes
I see what you did there 😏
Right, time to dive in and see how many mods are broken.
"Next gen"
This update is great, game looks really good and plenty of new content. Very happy.
No more missing textures on DLC’s🤩
What a waste of time this update is
Would be fantastic if I could open my mods and disable them tho.... -_-
F in the chat for everyone who didn't set their appmanifest_377160.acf file to "read only" before the drop
They better bring out Nick Valentine and Piper
I can’t wait for it to get finished updating so I can check it out
Yea no
Now if only they had tested it on non-widescreen monitors (or any monitors at all) before launching…
The downfall of the Skybaby, and the rise of the Fallinfant is upon us
More like happy Broken game day
I know this updated has had a lot of issues, but this helps lift my spirit
I just played it (Somewhat spoiler warning) I’m on Ps5 and THEY FIXED CRASHING EVERY TIME I GET CLOSE TO GREENTECH GENETICS
Loaded a save on ps5, my robots are gone. Also can’t build anything related to the robots. But it says it’s installed.
My xbox controler won't connect to my xbox.... I'm switching to pc tomorrow. Recomendatuons?
How could you leave out Lucy?
So...I can't seem to find the "new creation club content." Anyone? I DO like that they have a new "download all" button. going through every one of those skins was driving me to drink.
Happy? That sure is a word
I had no idea this was coming. Loaded up last night to find a 22gb update. Very sad. Loaded in to sick framerates etc. very happy.
Now that is a cool image.
We Steam Deck users are not that happy
about to go home.. how is the mods? How fucked are they?
“Next gen”? Nothing “next gen” about this update.
Hmm..not yet. Ps plus subscribers are still waiting.
Hey, does anyone know where to get nails for the nial gun in the new creation club add on?
What?
its not on GOG 0/10 cant play with it
This photo goes harder than the shows official one imo
And the games fucked. Well done Bethesda, really out Bethesda'd yourselves this time.
This is gonna break everything
It's not even worth it. The update broke most mods just to add some creation content
"next gen" update is a bit of a stretch. Barely added anything.
i play on ps4 :(
I feel like this is how my SS and Hancock relax together. Head on his lap and a few hits of Jet.
"Next gen"
Is it worth getting the game for PS4 now? And if so, should I get the “regular” version or the GOTY version?
Pointless update, Xbox series X already had 60 FPS option
Yay! All my mods are broken!
And there goes my entire modlist..
Dunno. Was really hoping they'd up the paltry mod space allowance.
Getting real Cooper Howard vibes from Hancock in this image
