I’m curious how the stats look for 76 vs the rest of the games. I was thinking about it this morning, and I still have no desire to play 76. I don’t want a multiplayer experience in my Fallout, and the fact that I’m not free to heavily mod the game because of that forced multiplayer experience just kills any interest I have in trying it solo.
Given the popularity of the show, I just feel like the chances of us seeing another Fallout game without an Always-Online requirement and the freedom to mod it (without paywalls or outright charging for mods) get slimmer every day. I’d be willing to put up with that decrepit engine for one more game if it meant we could get a good mod scene going for it.
I started playing 76 for the first time. I got it for free at some point.
At first, I was inundated with ads for the monthly fee thing. When I got into the game, it took me through a tutorial and then asked if I wanted to be level 2 or level 20 w/ pre-set perks selected from a few sets. I took the latter.
I was initially fairly impressed. It felt very much like Fallout 3/4/New Vegas, except that VATS didn’t pause time, IIRC. Which sucks, obviously.
I got through a few more tutorials and was setting out from my C.A.M.P. (which you place wherever you want in the shared world) and was about a mile down the road and the server disconnected. I found myself back where my CAMP was placed… But no CAMP! Someone in another instance had put their CAMP too close to that spot, so mine couldn’t go there any more and was back in my inventory.
But back up a step. I was a mile down the road, and a server blip put me back at CAMP, losing my progress.
I exited the game and uninstalled. I’m playing 4 again.
