The quality mode not working is the only real bug. Mods being broken because of an update is expected and normal. Give the mod creators time to update their work and it will be fine.
Unless they’ve moved on to other projects, then you gotta use a specific version of the game. But that’s also not out of the ordinary.
Give the mod creators time to update their work and it will be fine.
Depending how serious a game developer takes its modders, the way to achieve exactly that is by releasing a beta.
Yeah sure, they should have contacted the modders, gave them an early version, have them polish their mod before release, and then it would have all worked out dandy. Or at least, potentially it would be a lot smoother.
You don’t need to act a donut just because your username is donut.
Expecting Bugthesda to take modders seriously is like asking a venture capitalist to share with the poor. It’s definitely in the realm of “it could have been better in theory” but in practice you know that Bethesda can’t be arsed to do anything for their community unless it means more profit.
People forget how much of a shit show their first attempt at paid mods was. No support, people downloading mods off Nexus and just uploading them to the paid store with no repurcussions or way to report it.
They still haven’t released the CK for Starfield either right?
I forgot that too. Modders pulled their content from Nexus because their content was getting sold on console without their knowledge. This made fans be upset at modders, while they should have been mad at Bethesda for facilitating “theft”.
Can you roll back versions on console?
Doubt it. I think the only method is installing the release version from disc if possible, and then disabling auto-updates.
not sure on xboxes, but on playstation and nintendo devices, it depends. sometimes you can delete update data and find a disk or local device that has a specific update and install it and its be fine. for some titles, games have memory that a higher update exists for the device after uninstalling it, and refuse to boot unless that update is installed.
you for sure cannot have version control over store updates on console though.
Even then having a choice between something akin to 1.0 if they have physical media back or latest of they go online is very different to rolling back the latest update.
The Bethesda way.
Classic Bethesda shitshow.
yeah, giving the people watching the tv show the classic bethseda complex game experience, filled with bugs
I wonder how many new people bought Fallout 4 after watching the show, and started playing it vanilla. I don’t think I’ve ever played it un-modded.
They really Bethesda’d the update.
Reminding everyone of your major flaws after getting so much attention from the TV show seems kinda stupid. They should have just left it alone and people would have still bought it after watching the show.
No launching a next gen upgrade is about the minimum they should have done. There wasn’t a better way to do this, they should have just not fucked it up.
It just instantly crashes for me after clicking “play” on the launcher. Fresh install, no mods or anything else, updated drivers etc.
Is it a true fresh install? Or do you have leftover files from a previous playthrough? Especially if you use more than one SSD, I would go back in and delete the entire folder, from both/all drives, then verify install and try again.
I just barely managed to cancel the update and apply hacks to prevent it completing. I
was one of the many people who got hit in the nostalgia from the show and decided to replay. Of course that meant grabbing a mod list which took a couple days to get downloaded and working. Then a couple days later they release an update that breaks all the mods. Would have been much better timing if they released the update ahead of the show so modders had time to fix things before the rush.
Im juat gonna play fallout 1, 2, and new vegas. Cant break a 20+ year old games which is a nighmare to work on or New vegas which is held together by spite.
I love how I could play my game on Steam until I upgraded. Such a customer first stance!
And why doesn’t the game start in the foreground? It’s always in the background and I have to Alt+Tab to get to the game. Buggy PoS.
my buddy had his keep crashing during the intro sequence as they were running to the vault. when he checked the discord it seemed many were having this issue and that it was fixed by turning debris off.
Worked great on ps5 so far. It came with mods by default, shortened load times significantly, increased the resolution and frame rate. That’s enough for me. Everything else is bonus.
Same for me on PS5. Worked great playing all day yesterday. I had one bug that happened when i went o pick up loot and got stuck in the pipboy but nothing game breaking. Great update so far.
I have it for PS4 I wonder if it’s better there too
No, PS4 doesn’t get the next-gen update. It’s kinda in the name.
I don’t know if it will improve resolution or load times on ps4 since those are taking advantage of new hardware on the ps5. Might get the new mods though. Those make it look nicer imo.

It isn’t so much that they broke the fallout London mod as much as it is that they broke the Script Extender mod that all of the really good mods hard require.
Because that mod hooks into the executable and every time they patch the game, the executable changes, requiring a new version of that mod.
Serious question, if I made a game. Then someone took my game and modded it into a different game, and made money off it while cutting me out, you damn right I’d shut that shit down. Why is bathesda wrong?
Because Bethesda isn’t being cut out of anything. You still need to buy the original game to use mods. And most mods are made using the official modding tools that Bethesda released (Creation Kit).
Who is making money from mods?
Having a patreon is reasonably common nowadays, actually locking content behind it is not common.
How does that corpo shoe taste?
Lol it’s video games dude. Don’t play video games if you don’t like corporations. Everything gaming related is made by corporations, from the hardware to the software. This isn’t the place for your moral, anti capitalist grandstanding, while you play video games created by capitalists.
On PC the same stupid scripting bug where you are stuck in your house in the very beginning of the game is still present from the original release. Ridiculous.
Also the stuff like dialogue still being tied to FPS is so dumb urgh.
Ok but Morrowind update when
OpenMW?
The update looks great. I’m confused as to them saying quality mode doesn’t work on XSX, I just loaded it up yesterday and that was the setting enabled by default for me, or at least I thought it was. I had one crash to dashboard trying to exit a terminal menu, but other than that my one hour play session went just fine.
Skyrim Ultra Legendary NG when?
On PS5 and running performance mode. Prologue (the house in 2077 and in the Vault) had rather low framerate (and in quality mode unplayable AFAIC) and encountered 1 crash. So that gave me a scare and I got skeptical.
After leaving the Vault into open world - everything’s great so far. Good performance, suprisingly good graphics, great fun. Hope I didn’t just jinx it!
