Except PUBG isn't trying to tell a story... shit was distracting as hell. This coming weekend will have extended BETA periods so I'll make up my mind then but I still have two unfinished Fallout games NOW. What's the point in buying another one I'll play fro a few hours then put down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One, I never said "I didn't get my money's worth from a Fallout game" I put 70 hours into Fallout 3 and probably 30 into Fallout 4. I said I didn't beat two of them... Fallout 4 and New Vegas. Two, The thing that intrigues me about Fallout 76 is the online co-op aspect which I haven't tried much yet. Several people from the boards that I play online with regularly are planning on getting the game and I don't know if THAT aspect will be compelling enough to keep me playing for an extended period of time... I DON'T KNOW YET. That's why I said " I'm going to put some time in this weekend when I can spend more time with the Beta". I haven't played much of it yet so as far as I'm concerned the jury is still out. Is that ok with you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 The best comparison for this game is probably Borderlands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclyp Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I think the marketing of this game could end up pissing a lot of people off lol. They seem like they’re going out of their way to make it seem like a normal Fallout game. It’s kinda rubbing me the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 They need to trick people into buying it because it's a game that people who know what it is don't want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Vic20 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 My pre-load deleted itself when i fired up the client an hour ago, and I'm now spending the first PC BETA time slot downloading 46Gb of data at 365K per second on a gigabit connection. Well played Bethesda. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 We are actively investigating an issue causing PC players to redownload the #Fallout76 B.E.T.A. If you see a progress bar, please allow the download to complete. Thank you for your continued patience while we work to resolve this issue. — Fallout (@Fallout) October 30, 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, and after a quick check, also true! Unfortunately it seems its also irrelevant as attempting to launch the exe without the launcher results in an error message. Boooo!
