Fallout Update on engine please
How can it be that No Mans Sky just dropped an amazing Update, really adds a lot to the whole game experience, while FO76 had nothing of that volume, just new locations, why can't we get QoL updates like on how the game looks like and how the Game is played, i can't stand it when i sprint forward and than try to strafe left or right it stops me from sprinting, it really shows how poor and lazy Bethesda worked on this, it could be such an easy fix but no, push out new "atom shop" stuff that only some would buy.

You mean No mans Lie?
That game dosnt deserve it to be compared to any other game, it took them what? 5 years after release to get Multiplayer? I remember that lieing POS Owner saying mere days before release that it has Multiplayer.

Also pretty sure Hello Games has a bigger dev team working on NMS then Bethesda has on 76.

You think they're going to update the games graphics, when they literally downgraded them on purpose during Wastelanders because the engine was trying to hang itself?

You can, just not from Bethesda.

If it isn't going to dramatically raise their income, they do not care.

You can hate all you want because they lied and released a incomplete game, but, while all other dev would just fix somethings and move on to the next project they keep releasing new expansion FOR FREE for years, I dont even know how they are making money, and you should look on why the game was released that way.

Every time I see a "upgrade the gaming engine" thread, I think, "Tell me you have no idea how game development works without telling me you have no idea how game development works."

You would have better Luck at Reviving ELVIS.

The statement, "It's such an easy fix" is the giveaway.

If it helps MS basically told them the use of the creation engine is over. Thank god. Just being able to get stable fps with modern hardware without ini and downgraded settings for once. So at least going forward there's more hope.

There have been a multiple internet articles suggesting they might (2021) and board threads on reddit discussing this in detail; such things lend to the belief that this is easily doable. For those of us less coding-literate it's pretty easy to get confused. Guilty of "listening" too much, myself.

It's still better than all the other complete crap titles of modern day. Don't like it? Bye. You wanna make honest but scathing commentary to push them to actually be better, be my guest. Complaining about mistakes long past is just trolling. Let's focus on what to do better from here - rather than complaining about the source code that permits a freedom in game that many players cherish.

I started the game in 2018, after a severe injury left me unable to focus or enjoy much in life. By 2019 I had received another severe injury which prevented reading for long periods; the amount of text within game was about as much as I could handle. Until 2022 it was very difficult for me to move freely with consistency and this title literally got me through it. Having fully recovered with a piece of software as my main crutch is rather astounding, to me; I've always been a book- lover, but broken or not 76 is better than what others are offering and a lot of the players have some incredible input and interaction to offer.

You take personal offense to the title? I take personal offense to you.
Get off my lawn.

Calm. Everyone has a right to critic. If you look into its history thanks to some YouTube creators who went above and beyond digging everything up we learn the biggest issues and strengths with Bethy MD was the long standing core group of small guys who have been there from the start but post Starfield most have left I'm guessing due to MS. Basically using the same engine since Elder Scrolls 3 had it limits but also allowed those core people to work more efficiently but at a cost. They could never make any true next gen leaps with their games due to that engine beyond finding less then optimal work arounds. Beyond just being comfortable with software and this applies to all fields when you have any group of people that have been together that long its hard for them to accept change or criticism.

Yep, MS sunset a bunch of older core members. "Time for them to retire since they were using archaic methods" is hopefully true and not just cutting costs. I put little faith in any youtubers that profit; their agenda will always be income, not caring about the subject. I think MS could have managed that fine on their own.

I don't think it will be a good thing. Heavier, probably with millions of bugs.
1st of all as you know Bethesda devs do not read any topics on Steam forums, you will be better off on Reddit.

2nd just deal with it, this is what you get and it is not bad, play the game from day one and still enjoy it.

Sure i love to see some things chanced but i'm very realistic and i know it won't happen... ever. I just deal with it and still have a blast with Fallout 76.
