Fallout 76 come to steam in 5 days
>Monetization related
>Average, not lower because of the shills and the Steam release
>Decent, not groundbreaking, depends on how well they can fool people into thinking that NPCs suddenly mean it's Fallout 5
>LOL NO
>what kind of shitstorm do you expect?
Not much. Everyone already knows the game is an absolute fucking disaster and a continuous trainwreck. I doubt there are many people left who had any interest in the game that either have not played it yet or have no desire to play it because it's such a mess. A steam release will change nothing.
My mother likes it, so I guess there is some kind of audience for it.
>Still requires account on bethesda.net
What the fuck is the point
Even if it was f2p, no one would bother playing that shit
What has even happend with F76 lately? The last shitstorm I heard about was some hack that let you completely strip another players inventory even their cash items. Before that it was those special edition helmets giving people cancer and before that the canvas bags and before that everyone who bought F76 getting doxxed
>>what kind of shitstorm do you expect?
Nobody care about it at this point. In wouldn't be surprised if we got flood of positive threads abouf F76 since only hardcore fans are still playing at this point.
people are stupid and will still buy this shit I bet.
People still play this heaping pile of shit
what the fuck is point of bethesda.net in DOOM, Rage 2, and probably all their next titles
>depends on how well they can fool people into thinking that NPCs suddenly mean it's Fallout 5
to be fair fallout 4 NPCs wenen't nothing extra too, with few expections
they already have many things to sale, don't you want fallout fuck you 1st
>have a reliable game franchise
>turn it to fucking multiplayer
Why companes keep making that mistake? It didn't work with Elder Scrolls, It's obvious that it won't gonna work for Fallout.
Wait do you really have to create an account on their shitty site to play doom eternal's single player campaign? Because if so I'm pirating
It's pretty stable now. That inventory stripping hack was patched out within a week. There's still some hackers and bugs appearing from time to time but it's got a stable performance and almost bug-free compared to when it launched. Wastelanders will bring even more bugfixes and fallout 3/nv style dialogue and quests. Critic reviews for wastelanders have been highly favorable for the most part.
I had completelly forgotten that bunder. Guess I'll check the reviews in a couple weeks to have a laugh
Zenimax acquired a multiplayer game studio and tried to make them work on something more unique than another tf2/overwatch clone.
It’s pretty ok now so nothing. Keep in mind that we live in a timeline where PUBG and Fortnite were the two biggest hits for years. Compared to those even FO76 is a masterpiece.
>It didn't work with Elder Scrolls
8th game on steam by gross revenue in 2019
problem isn't that its multiplayer, its their incompetent game design
game didn't need human NPCs, it would be enough to have well written supermutants, ghouls, robots etc. giving you quests
game had 0 PvP
monetization is garbage, it would be much better to have normal DLC
p2w didn't help it
I'm not sure about campaign, as i never buy games in full price, but i think you will have to buy doom coins to have access to DLCs, in rage 2 you need bethesda.net to get preorder bonus and DLC and even than you still need buy in game currency for other DLCs
Nice fucking try Todd lmao
I will play it if it cost less than 10$ or free
its just Stockholm syndrome from playing so bad game
he is actual victim
>game had 0 PvP
It's gotten a fortnite game mode though.
You can easily find a copy cheaper than $10 especially on console. Playing this on xbox, no buyer's remorse.
I got Fallout 76 few weeks ago for pennies and I have actually enjoyed playing it for a week once I got passed the learning curve(if you can call it that).
It's pretty much Fallout 4 but without NPC. Let's be honest, story and quests were so shit in 4 that the game would have been better without them. 76 has better and more interesting locations. So if you liked 4 for exploring you'll like 76.
Biggest downside of 76 of course is always online so there is some lag even if you want to play alone and that means that some locations will be cleared of enemies when you get there, it's pretty annoying. You have to pay a monthly subscription to avoid that. And another downside is that there is no mod support
FO76 is the least fun game I've ever played. It's not even so bad you can be entertained, it's just relentlessly pointless and bland
>will it work?
I believe Steam release coincides with the Wastelanders update, so no, probably not.
I heard this works now. Are those just lies too?
Depends on how many people on Steam are clamoring for a new survival tedium sim.
I think that fad has gone the way of VR.
bitch, the game is a dumpster fire from the core gameplay. Even if it had no bugs and worked as intended (bethesda game lol) it would still be a gigantic piece of garbage on flames
Why didn't Bethesda realise the whole fun of Fallout is in the story and lonesome exploration (and mods)?
This game is literally just an empty, dated, buggy shell with mediocre gameplay and no endgame
Why the fuck would anyone play this?
They did. They just want their own MMO to milk. And FOfags are the most spineless consoomers out there so they'll eat anything. Case in point, people still playing this trash heap.
Because it’s fun.
>we could have more good games if people didn't eat up any shit they were fed by devs
>endless grinding is fun
ok
There were literal people e-mailing the devs sending videos and clips of glitches/game breaking shit they found trying to plead to them they want to help fix the game....they fucking banned them and did nothing about it.
I'm pretty sure the game is still fucked.
fuck off drone. Malware-76 is not fun even it the broadest of the broadest definitions of the word
If it's F2P I'll check it out if only because I've got way too much time during quarantine
Some kind of Fallout survival game in the same vein as Conon Exile, Rust or Ark (never played any) was probably the basic idea.
>it's not free 2 play yet
are fallout whales really that lucrative?
The only time i would consider playing fo76 again is if they let you play singleplayer and with mods
>Sea of Thieves
>Now FO76
lmao
It’s a shame because it has a really nice world to explore. Even if they just copy and pasted fallout 4 with all its faults it could have been worthwhile
will probably get the same review as fallout 4
What kind of a logic is that? If the whales were generating a lot of money it would have already gone f2p. There is barely anything worth buying for real money in F76 and anything that is worth buying you can get for the atoms that you get as a new player. It's shocking how bad the items in the shop are considering they have a paid team making those and you compare them to the mods people make for F4. It still costs money because that is the primary income for them right now
what could they possibly price this? wasnt this at a garbage bin for $1 and even being given away for free in some places? what the fuck is their marketing department even thinking? " yeah lets wait a few months until people forget and then try to sell it again"
this shit blows my fucking mind
All the dissenters stopped wasting their time so all that is left are braindead fanboys who desperately need someone to play with them.
as F2P right?
I'm going to buy it so I can leave a bad review.
haha.
Never played it.
not that user but does this mean the game is launching on steam without the update that adds characters into the game? I was just astonished bethesda launched without having characters in the game. A series about completing story quests like a checklist without characters. What the actual fuck?
>Todd
>Giving a game away for free
Lmao
With all the knowledge we have about this absolute shitshow of a video game, how could anyone possibly bring themselves to buy this?
yes
you need one to just boot any (new)bethesda game nowadays
Don't think so. One of the things they're pushing is that current F76 owners who link their account to steam before the Wastelanders update/steam release will get the steam version for free.
Steam launch will be with the Wastelanders update, but it's also the day the patch goes live in general, so expect it to be unplayable due to whatever bugs that might introduce.
> Using a Launcher to Start a different Launcher to start a game
What?
anyone who buys this game deserves the rope. no exceptions.
>fun
you are lying and a fucking faggot
Why are you fags raging because I’m enjoying a video game?
>yeah lets wait a few months until people forget and then try to sell it again
skyrim in nutshell
you probably never heard of upay or origin
>Steam launch will be with the Wastelanders update, but it's also the day the patch goes live in general
>steam launch on patch day
>bethesda
bitch that's a mistake somebody tell them to delay it wtf
eh I'd buy it if it's cheap enough, which should be the case considering regional pricing.
it was already delayed tho, well at least we get on Yas Forums hundreds of threads about chink-yea
i cant wait for their hotfix to delete game from disc tho
Not sure, I remember having fun with it when it came out; made Hitler as my only character and took him down the path of a preacher until I joined the Enclave and made him Mecha Hitler.
