PC update is great.

No problems. As with any update, mods will be broke temporarily until modders can fix them.

If you are getting crashes during the prologue (before the nuke goes off) you probably have weapon debris turned on. That bug isnt fixed for everyone. Turn it off, you arent missing anything really.

Ive done that and its been perfect playing. Some of your mods will still work. But nothing script intensive until F4SE can update their mod. Gradually reinstall some QoL mods (like Raze my settlement holotape one, best scrapper and safest one available.)

Turn two on, test them, make sure its not breaking/broken anything. Save, repeat. This is the Way. :)

There are of course haters out there that are like vultures looking to ♥♥♥♥♥ at everything. My computer midrange, is four years old, runs the game on ultra at 60fps. Dont let them discourage you, definitely worth it, and the stability to engine fixes are hard to measure. No one promised it perfect, but every improvement is great, and we should be glad Bethesda did anything at all, or we'd all be looking at 76 again with much reluctance in our hearts. (sorry 76 apologists, i see everywhere that its good now, but its still multiplayer and that's not a lone wanderer experience for me, not the spirit of Fallout imho)

Good luck out there. Happy scrapping.

This is great for people who have no problems like you, but people who have 32:9 displays can't get past char creation without mods.

That's fair. I havent even seen a monitor like that where i live yet. So i suppose this is for the majority of people living more on the humble side of life just wanting to enjoy the game.

What did the update actually offer that you couldn't already have with mods? I was excited for it after the show but it doesn't seem like much of a "next gen upgrade". Seems like they just did in name only to generate news stories aka sales. It's just an ad in a different form, imo. Maybe it was good for consoles I guess.

Have you tried to save a game yet?

Someone posted a fix in another thread just tested and it works for me:

Follow this guide to fix stretch resolution proportion on games
Tip for whose using above 1080p resolutions:
Go to your gpu control panel;
Search for 'Adjust the size and position of your desktop area to work on video or gpu';
Enable 'replace proportion size overall for gaming and apps';
Adjust to fullscreen;
Execute scale from gpu and not video;

Is what I did after having regrets for buying 23,6 inche monitor about 9 days ago. After doing this procedure, all games and desktop area stopped looking stretch.

If this update so great then why it is running only 30 fps after clean install?

[Lit_Reflex]

My framerate is unlocked with sped up gameplay with a fresh install and game, no mods.

I know how to fix it but refuse to play with only 60 FPS on a 165 Hz display with a 4070 Ti.

what really sucks is i have some mods that are older that wont be updated (highly doubtful anyway, been a few years since they updated) that I absolutely adore. Be Exceptional is one that comes to mind. Completely changes the game for the better, and im now sad.

The problem isnt he update. the problem is steam took away the option to update your game when YOU felt like it. A while ago you could go into settings and DISABLE updates. but not anymore... soon as you launch it, there ya go. :(

I did, everything's fine. Y'all scared me tbh, but it looks like it's all fine.

If your game doesn't work you either bought a weird monitor and have crazy expectations for games like this to work on it, or you modded your game and likely have FOSE installed.

Either way it's not nearly the catastrophe certain people are making it out to be.

If you bought an Ultra-Wide you should know by now it's not "Widely" supported especially in older games lol get it Widely. So... your fault.

And if you modded your game at all... your fault.

I avoided buying Ultra Wide because it's not really that great and the support for it is limited, and I don't mod much because modding always breaks my game. So things are fine for me.

I got a bunch of quests too it seems, gonna go check these out. Later y'all.

If you want to play, get a NORMAL monitor or TV, Nuke your entire game and reinstall, no mods, no CC content. Turn off weapon debris, 60fps limit and you're good to go. This ain't that hard guys. Mods break the game, you don't need them trust me. Mods are like a drug addiction, they feel good at first, and you become dependent on them, but in the end, they always end up breaking things.

I agree with OP. I uninstalled and reinstalled and everything works great. Definitely no complaints from me. I disabled all mods and looked for update for F4SE and found a note from the mod author saying he's working on it as we speak. So, I'm all good.

Extra content which was free and seamless installation. No mod manager to be concerned about or load orders. My last save loaded up fine and the game is just as stable and smooth as before.

I was not expecting a Next Gen graphic update. It looks really good on my PC with ultra settings, at 1440p. The console players got graphic updates to match the PC. Which is good.

yeah...people who play with mods will have to wait for an update to f4se. if f4se doesn't work, then most mods wont work either.

Except some of us who deliberately removed mods and re-installed and all that...
find ourselves in that same awkward position from release dates. Weird fps, random crashing, stuttering, etc.,except now we don't have the third party fixes to fall back on.

If this BS doesn't show the higher ups at Microsoft how *cough cough- Inept Todd's tiny team of turfwads is...

You need to cap it at 60 fps. Go to your desktop settings, Display and set your monitor to 60hz refresh rate. And then make sure the game's resolution matches your monitor's.

That’s how it’s always worked. Steam never allowed you to turn off updates - it’s always been “update on launch”.
