Was pretty disappointed with 76.
Extremely disappointed here. Only game I ever pre-ordered.
Started up again yesterday with this expansion. It seems a little better, but the inescapable “survival” mode is still tedious.
I gave up on 76 almost immediately. It came free with my X-Box 1. Having played, and enjoyed the series predecessors I thought I might like it. No, I didn’t. I don’t see how adding NPCs can pull it out of the funk it’s in either. I doubt I’ll even take a look at Wastelanders now, and that’s a shame.
Played Fallout’s 3 & 4 but not 76, is it worthwhile?
Because i may never get another chance, in my opinion Red Dead Redemption 2 is a piece of crap.
Pre-ordered it, got all the extras, played 30 minutes once then never went back to it.
Replaying Witcher 3 is far more satisying than jumping into the Fallout 76 dumpster fire.
No Man’s Sky was my first and last pre-order.
no mans sky is a completely different game at this point.
No man’s sky has been completely remade.
I’ve heard that. Sort of like the ex who shows up at your door swearing she’s changed...
Yeah, and No Man’s Sky turned a C- game into an A game for free, no DLC.
Fallout 76 was all hype and no game, so I hope it will at least be decent because it was BUGGGGGY.
F 76 wasn’t as bad as I expected but still the pretty weak the choice of no NPC’s was just an terrible decision. The characters you run across in the wasteland is a key element in the game. This expansion is an improvement but the constant having to eat and drink survival mode is just tedious as hell and you can’t turn it off.
If you still own it, fire it up. Can’t possibly hurt.
Just make sure you download the massive change.
I have a VR set and went back to it when they released the VR patch. Its pretty incredible.
I’ve considered it and definite props to Hello Games for taking the long view and making it right. Right now still having too much fun with Witcher 3. If I can slot it in before Cyberpunk 2077, I’ll give it a shot.
I’ve been playing ARK Survival Evolved for awhile now and still enjoy it, even though I seem to get raided on a regular basis playing on a PvP server.
76 has an odd feel to it. Don’t know if its the graphics, or the “survival mode” or just the general aesthetic. The C.A.M.P system is no where near as satisfying as the settlement system in FO4, and nearly totally unnecessary.
It does not feel like the other Fallout games. It’s more like Elder Scrolls on-line, but not in a good way.
Since I got to a lot of the map last time, I’m going to give it another chance with the NPCs and related quests.
I must be one of the few who loved 76. I still play it, and I’ve met and played/traded with a bunch of players in the same ‘guild’, one of whom I visited in Texas last December. The free-for-all mode, Nuclear Winter, is extremely fun, and extremely challenging. Everyone starts off with nothing, and you have to find your own weapons and armor, which are dispersed in containers all over the maps. It makes everyone even in the beginning, and you have to be a good player to advance, whether you’re on a team (2-4) or alone.
I dunno. I enjoyed it, and tons of changes have been made since release. New quests, an ever-expanding STASH box system, and new cryptids.
It also helps that I had fried to team up with from day one.
*friends
Stupid phone.
Thanks Ben, i like the elder scrolls.
I will watch some live play vids and see if it might interest me.
