I wonder how that will effect the roadmap for this game. Also, who is the idiot that said it'd be cool to reuse code owned by another company?

I knew Behaviour cut corners but Jesus Christ, why the ♥♥♥♥ would you copy off Bethseda of all the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ companies in the business?

It's cheating off the student who's getting Straight Ds in math. You could have copied off of anyone else and not got noticed.

I'm looking forward to Fallout 76 too.

From the way that reads, Behavior took code they wrote for FOS and just reused it for Westworld. Not so much stealing as reusing something they wrote in the first place but shouldn't have been reused because of liscensing or copyrights.

Pretty much this.

eh... different game... What it could mean is more cosmetics cause they will need to pay off Bethesda now.

Might be a good thing.

According to the wiki, they assisted Bethesda in making Fallout Shelter. I have no idea what parts were done by Behaviour. Obviously whoever thought it would be a good idea to take code done under the contract of one company and reuse it for another company should be fired. That's some stupidity.
