I forgot to ask about the theme song to this mmo?
Why did bethesda not use when fallout 76 first came out i was excited until I've seen bethesda did not use john denver as the singer to the theme song so why did they not use john denver's song instead using a not so good singer?

There is no theme song. Never heard of Beth aiming to use John Denver. All songs used must be licensed though. Can't just grab a song and use it.

No theme song? i propose something like "songs of roman slaves in old roman ships", to remember all those junior programmers fans who wanted to help bethesda and in return to make this game, todd gifted crunching them with no mercy and destroying their dreams.

this isnt an mmo, its just a multiplayer game

It's an mmo, the limitation of ppl/server is just intentional to maintain a sensation of the wastes, there is no sense traditional stack of players/map will play all together, ppl still thinking in a rigid system with immovable rules like an mmo must have 300 players playing all the time together because is massive multiplayer online/server, but all of them are wrong, this game wont accept this rule and doesnt have sense we play 100 ppl in the same server in a fallout world all destroyed by nuclear warfare.. from where all this ppl came from? so no, its not only a multiplayer game, is an mmo with other rules, also in steam we are very few compared all ppl who plays in console.

Maybe John Denver's version is too new (1971). Most of the songs used in the game and in promos are from the 60s and older: Johnny Guitar, Beach Boys' Wouldn't it Be Nice ("The Hills Are Alive" trailer), Petula Clark's Downtown (The Pitt trailer). This is in keeping with the game's lore, I suppose.

Yes I remember watching allot of them on American Bandstand in Black and White. Some of the songs are remakes of even earlier songs of the 40's and 50's. Most of the background music is done by one guy-I found it on line. Most really done good long mellow songs (instramentals).

Not all artists or their estates want to be associated with certain products.

For reference read up on The Wanderer and FO4.

Was just about the marketing not the actual product. Also goes to show he doesn't understand the game at all.

hmmm yeah. there isn't a Flo, rosey, janey or any girl around (which refers to the guy being a player,) but the song is so upbeat. In the post apocalypse, you have to stay upbeat not depressed all the time to get through and shoot all the scorchies that try to kill you.

haha i just checked his other song, " runaround sue" .. he likes to sing songs about player guys and gals. XD

maybe a quest with a gal named sue, with that song...
"she'll love you and put you down' LOL

anyway thanks for the music update OP, nice to look at the oldies.

The fun part is, that all Dion did was ask money (1 mil). So in the end he's ok with violence and morally indefensible content as long as he's paid for it.

I find that particularly interesting. Because that actually makes Dion look worse.

sorry I meant the song that plays in the game trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9FGaan35s0 this singer is ok but I prefer john denver and I don't think anyone could get a licence now that he is at rest R.I.P my fav he was still is.

licensing costs money and i believe it goes till 100 years back before something could be considered eh "public domain"
!! i'm no attorney, so above statement should be taken with a truckload of guessing salts

btw being dead doesn't mean it's up for grabs
greedy record labels, greedy record labels never change
