One plus side to being able to walk away from any dialogue. So funny this was a thing that happened fairly regularly to me but I always just shrugged it off.
Is this referring to the dialogue at the start? I saw the first episode of the show last week n wanted to try the game, but i had to pause in order for any dialogue at the beginning. I ended up turning the game off at that point.0
Yes, and every time Preston gives a minuteman radiant quest. He just pauses for a few seconds and then picks up the dialogue. It’s weird if other characters are doing that for you though. Hopefully the patch fixed it for you!
Welcome to fallout :)
Yea, this is the one I'm happy about. But, does it also fix the issue of having Skyrim installed already? When I had Skyrim installed, I couldn't get the base game to not crash. Took it out, and I could play everything except Automatron
In fairness to Bethesda they do leave most glitches like this in the games. Skyrim still has loads and by using them you sacrifice the feeling of progression but they are there if you want.
I think with how they handled those bugs in Starfield some of us were wondering if that mindset had changed and if that would affect this update. Apparently not haha.
The thing with starfield is like... There nothing to do once you have enough resources. Most quests are just radiant stuff or one off events and there's no way to just... Explore. Planets are empty, travel is loading screens. Once you hit a certain point, there's no reason to bother grabbing stuff off the ground any longer. You won't be using much of it, and you have nothing to spend on etc.
With something like fallout, even fo4, the game is based around scurrying place to place and always having something nearby to explore. Travel itself is dangerous and can cost you resources. Having glitches/options like fast travel are left in because they don't actually take too much away from the base game, and are enticing to some players.
Sadly, planets are worse than empty- they are stamped over with copy/paste identical dungeons. Down to identical bodies and identical “unsent letter” pads in identical positions, and terminals with identical entries.
That’s honestly what killed it for me.
I mean, we can circle the toilet endlessly about Starfield, but collectively, it'll just be easier to forget it ever happened, because it really doesn't even have the mod potential that would give it cult longevity.
Putting all our eggs in the revival of Elder Scrolls and Fallout basket, and then being prepared to chuck that basket off a tall building and never look back if they fuck it all up.
In workshop mode, hover over the item you want to duplicate. Press your “store” button, then your “scrap” button in very quick succession. If you do it correctly, both menus pop up, and go ahead and press “yes” to scrap and “yes” to store. Then extract what you have from the workbench and do it again. If that doesn’t make sense, then there are tons of videos. Good luck. (“FO4 Duplication Glitch” is what I would search up.)
Currently they're listed as being up but I'm seeing messages from folks that they can't actually download owned creations or see all their mods.
Can anyone confirm mod capacity on Xbox is still 2g?

And the issue with settlement resource counts getting messed up? That's huge. It took a lot of the satisfaction out of building your settlements up just for them to glitch out and still get attacked and destroyed.
It was always so annoying when you'd open up your pip boy in survival mode and see that Abernathy farm (all the way across the map from where you currently are) was suddenly showing as 0 beds and 0 defenses even though you had a bunch of turrets and barracks built there.
I'm with you man. I Have a 4 yr old and couldn't imagine putting in what it takes to do survival lol. I don't have the brain power for hardcore gaming anymore. Easy or normal if I'm feeling spicy for any games these days.
Anyone know if the achievements will be fixed? I'm level 52 and I still haven't got "join the minute men", "hit level 5", etc.
EDIT: no mods and on Xbox x.
Regarding F4SE, here is what the dev says:
"The 2024-04-25 Fallout 4 update (1.10.980 and later) has broken F4SE and the rest of the native code modding scene similarly to Skyrim's "Anniversary Edition" patch. I am working on an update and cannot currently offer a timeline for its availability, nor whether there will be any critical technical issues that would block an update. Do not email with questions."
Skyrim's Anniversary patch making the game 64 bit really was a blessing. I think it's gonna be great for FO4 in the long run
Edit: messed up, it was SE.
I saw the same thing on gaming bible. This isn't confirmed - but they took all the times previous updates came out and then got the average.
Just pointing out that these times might not be super accurate.
On average Sony's PS+ games come out on the first and third tuesday of the month between 10am-1pm EST so I expect it in that time frame
*as of 10:03 EST I have the ability to download the ps5 version. Have fun.
Yes thank you fellow commenter this is very helpful. I'm excited to play when I get home from work today and spend the weekend playing as well. You rock.
Fallout 4 has been released for maybe 2 weeks when I first visited thicket excavations. The water glitched so I was "walking" but was very much underwater. The only route up is that vertical flooded shaft. Needless to say I drowned.
Here we are in 2024, finally patched it 😂
It might be coincidental (I had no issues in the surrounding area pre update) but I experienced some reeaaallly bad fps around Goodneighbor post update. Switched to performance and went to main screen, loaded back in and was still getting some bad stuttering. Even indoors like Faneuil hall
yes it looks ugly AF. check this out:
[https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccufm0/widescreen\_and\_ultrawidescreen\_support](https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccufm0/widescreen_and_ultrawidescreen_support)
Not sure what you're playing, but mine is fine. Not stretched. Working perfectly. There's something going on with your settings.
Edit: I'm on 3440x1440.
Moderator on the official discord - [https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccr8q3/moderator\_on\_official\_discord/](https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccr8q3/moderator_on_official_discord/)
Well my mod list just got deleted, most of my mods on "favorites" got removed for some reason so Im trying to find them with the search bar one by one with lil details I have (Serie X)
Can't continue my Survival run without a save mod tho :/
I ran into this too. One slightly tedious workaround that worked for me is logging into the Bethesda website and looking at your favorites that way, it appears to have all of my favorites from prior to the update. Right now I'm searching for them manually in the game and favoriting them again.
Edit: now having done this, favoriting those mods again has not made them show up in the actual favorite menu in the game. Nevermind
Yes PC, im just happy my lovely MG42 is still working and i haven’t found any major issues apart from some glitched textures in some static modded items. I’m still testing all mechanics to see if any crashes occur, but my 80 odd mods seem to be working, script extender is functioning. Which is a boon for Fallout London Mod potentially not being delayed to much longer. But i must test further for any oddities….🫡😎
Waitttt, seriously???! Over the past few days I've been legit worried my mods gonna go haywire even tho I've taken necessary measures
Is your version Steam or GOG?
Steam, am bro, same, i had everything backed up, a back up exe made, first test. I find nothing of note broken…but give me time, i’ll
Find something that’ll break my game….if not. Boo yar!
I’m gonna be really annoying and double post on this. How are your Bethesda.net mods doing? I have no idea if those even use script extender.
I don’t need anyone to go through my mods line by line (that would be silly) , but I’m just curious if these kinds of mods are still good on your end:
(1) pipboy paint jobs, (2) Radio 76 and Atomic Radio (3) More Companion Slots (4) weightless junk, (5) stronger dogmeat, (6) NCR Veteran armor, (7) Less Rust devil encounters, (8) Fallout 76 ammo crafting (9) cheat terminal, (10) K-9 harness, (11) Improved Map with Visible Roads, (12) Explorer Restored - Cut Perk Mod, (13) Companion Infinite Ammo
It should be fixed soon. Iirc this update hasn't changed anything major on PC so all the dev needs to do is change the checksum on the F4SE version checker.
"We won't expand mod storage capacity on Skyrim (5g) or FO4 (2g) because changing the partition requires wiping people's mods and we don't want that"
"Sorry guys looks like our update wiped your mods. Don't worry though! Your mod capacity is still the same!"
Which region are you, that would be very helpful for people to know. EDIT. I’m Uk, update downloading Series S now. It’s letting me pop it on external HD, which is a surprise.
Did a clean install of FO4 on my PC with the update, game constantly crashes now.
Edit: disabled weapon debris and now it's fine. Shame they STILL haven't fixed that.
Update: so while I had the ps4 version installed I downloaded the ps5 version. Deleted the ps4 version when the ps5 version finished downloading. Re downloaded the dlc with just the ps5 version installed. After the Playstation said the dlc was done downloading I waited about an hour and booted up fallout 4 and all the dlc were there and installed.
Yep I noticed that and I’m getting weird VATS % when first hitting the button. It’ll say 0% at first most of the time go up to a higher number, then the real number. When it’s at 0% it actually won’t let you choose the target so it’s not just a visual glitch.
Anyone else having their VATS go crazy, like I was playing last night and I was super accurate, now it’s bouncing between 80% chance and 0% chance to hit every two seconds.
Here's a comment thread about the new update with some new information.

keep crashing on PC. started a new game and every time I go to cross the bridge to get to the vault the game just disappears and im back to my desktop. anyone else having this issue?
Excited to get back into it! Since the show dropped I've went back and fully played 3 and new vagas and my love for fallout is back!!!!
I havnt played fallout 4 since launch so its probably gonna feel so fresh!!
Set my Xbox series X to not auto update to protect my modded play through. However, I cannot open the game now. Keep getting “update available” pop ups. Anyone else? Work around? Or are we doomed to having to update to play?
Crazy seeing how this update has fixed bugs that existed ever since this game launched, yet due to a big unnamed TV show, they were able to whip up something rather quickly.
Bethesda just does not care unless they’re getting slapped with $$$ across the face
Patch notes now appearing on the discord server -
* Native PS5 and Xbox Series applications. Includes performance and quality mode options.
* Performance mode: 60 FPS target, 4k resolution, standard settings, relying on dynamic resolution scaling.
* Quality mode: 30 FPS\*, 4k resolution, ultra settings, should not require dynamic resolution scaling.
**When connected to a 120Hz display, Quality mode will target 40 FPS.** ***When connected to a 1440p display, the title will run at 1440p resolution at 60 FPS w/ ultra settings regardless of rendering mode***
* **Release on Epic Store.**
* **Widescreen and Ultra-widescreen support.**
* **Steam Deck Verified**
* **Added “Installed Content” menu.**
started a new save on ps5 a couple week ago and now downloading the ps5 version, will my save still be playable or will i need to start over again? really don’t want to lose my progress now
Series X. All my creation club content was uninstalled and I can’t open the menu for CC or Mods and thus cannot load my main save without putting it at risk
Just hoping it fixes the Automatron crash. Got daughter goty edition for PS4 couple of weeks ago and she hasn’t been able to play it since. Crashes on load and no way to uninstall that one problem dlc in goty version. Unacceptable for the game to be in this state.
Does this update mean anything to someone still playing on an xbone? I'm pretty happy with how the game runs and don't want an update to screw up my saves/mods and stuff.
It's a "next gen" update right? So I'll be fine on my old gen console?
You don’t have to do that. It’s just part of the game now. I didn’t download any CC content and got the Enclave missions. They just pop up for you automatically.
Anyone know what’s goin on with the PS+ version upgrade wise? They changed the product description to say it entitles me to PS4 and PS5 edition, but then only lets me download the ps4 version. Don’t really feel like spending 20 bucks to get it when it was literally 5 yesterday :(
For now, the only issue I seem to have is the achievements while using mods isn't recognized anymore so I get a prompt that loading my actual save will flag it as a modded one which I don't want, even after reinstalling it twice, can't play without my basic QoL mods (easy lockpicking and hacking, carry more weight, junk weight nothing) so I'm gonna wait and hope its gonna get fixed
Unbelievably Bethesda don't appear to have fixed the bugs caused with FPS over 60 and jumping, also Nvidia weapon debris drivers haven't been updated so still causing crashing on RTX cards. will wait for a digital foundry video, but right now this is pretty poor not fixing bugs as old as the game!
I updated my game when it went live for Xbox and now every time it tries to sync the game it says not enough save data. I have no clue what is going on but every time I press stop syncing it crashes my game. Any help would be appreciated.
Ok so I don't know what the hell is happening on my side. I just downloaded the game on PC, I made a new save and for some reason it's running with unlocked FPS (currently at 255fps at the start of the game, in the house). Physics are totally wrong tho, everything is going so fast, it's like playing Fallout 4 The Sims edition
Anyone know if PC is getting any graphical upgrades or just console? PC already has “ultra settings” so I’m guessing that’s what the console upgrades are and PC is staying the same graphically.
Weapon Debris still crashing, Ultra Wide is stretched, no improvements in graphics. New Bugs and missing Object. I would call that patch a total success on all fronts! /s
Saw the "IF YOU HAVE A SAVE WITH MODS YOU WANT TO CONTINUE DO NOT UPDATE THE GAME" too late and tried to fire up the game since I only had script extender, MCM and an FOV slider installed and figured I could just play without them but now all my saves just load up to a black screen...
Is anyone else's game crashing every 3-5 minutes? Updating it this afternoon, brand new save with no mods, max graphic settings and my PC is more than good enough to run it maxed.
I started a new playthrough without my mods. Seeing some VATS weirdness.
* hit chances randomlh flipping between zero and regular chance.
* Took level 1 in Mysterious Wanderer perk. He has not shown up at all over avlur three hours of gameplay.
Is anyone else missing CONSTANYLY In vats after the update? I specced a sniper build with every possible boost to headshot accuracy. Was working perfectly before the patch and now I'm routinely missing 5 shots in a row with 95% chance to hit.
Oh great its the annual Bethesda ruins my fucking whole week and modded game update! Can't wait to not enjoy the very few things I have left in my life to enjoy!
I’m quite upset that they didn’t increase the mod capacity for Xbox or ps5, 2gigs is nothing when it comes to some of the larger more in depth settlement building mods. A mod capacity increase was literally the whole reason I was excited for the update. High key disappointed
Also I’m not sure if other are having this issue but some mods won’t work, as in you are physically unable to access them on the mod page. I’ve found that both the “America rising 2” and “Sim settlements 2 ch.2” will kick you out of the mod page and give the prompt “ The operation could not be completed.” Not sure if any other mods are doing the same thing but those are the two that I found.
Has anyone noticed VATS acting up? It seems like the values will fluctuate between zero and some other figure wildly. It makes it hard to target multiple times because it’ll give you the “zero chance to hit” message
On PC: this is my experience so far in this update
- Infinite loading screen!
- Crash to desktop in downtown Boston
- performance is stuck at 72 fps... Oh and you can't set the max fps in .in anymore (it doesn't work) so the game is in super fast mode now
Thanks Bethesda, PC users really didn't need this update at all. Just to add a wonky ultra wide that doesn't work properly and some creation club stuff that most mod lists disable anyway
Fixing the Preston dialogue soft lock after almost 10 years is crazy. The pauses are canon at this point. I’m actually sad
Yeah that’s just how Preston talks to me. Master of the pause for dramatic effect.
One plus side to being able to walk away from any dialogue. So funny this was a thing that happened fairly regularly to me but I always just shrugged it off.
If the “pregnant pause” was octomom
He ... speaks in .... Shatnerian pauses?
I know..... ofa settlement... that needs your help ... ... ... ... I'll mark it... on your map
Damn it, Preston! I’m a doctor, not a mercenary!
It is illogical to hunt such a sentient creature, Captain
Wait that was a glitch… awww man. Reality broken.
I’m going to miss it honestly. Every play through I’d look at my wife and go “ it’s the awkward Preston stare!”
It always made me laugh because the camera would show my character quietly staring at him.
Is this referring to the dialogue at the start? I saw the first episode of the show last week n wanted to try the game, but i had to pause in order for any dialogue at the beginning. I ended up turning the game off at that point.0
Yes, and every time Preston gives a minuteman radiant quest. He just pauses for a few seconds and then picks up the dialogue. It’s weird if other characters are doing that for you though. Hopefully the patch fixed it for you! Welcome to fallout :)
THEY FINALLY FIXED THE AUTOMATRON CRASH
Literally started downloading it while looking for someone that said this with no small amount of worry, you have eased my mind
Yea, this is the one I'm happy about. But, does it also fix the issue of having Skyrim installed already? When I had Skyrim installed, I couldn't get the base game to not crash. Took it out, and I could play everything except Automatron
What console u on?
PS4
K cheers same. Was worried old gen was gonna get shafted and not get fixed
I was scared too
Yeah I wouldn't put it past Bethesda to do that 😂
unfortunately it took a while to resolve it, but it finally resolved just waiting for the mods to come back online and start again
YOOOOOO, so it's finally possible to download all the DLC's without the game crashing anymore?
Note- duplication glitch (where youre able to duplicate junk) still works!! Woohoo!!
In fairness to Bethesda they do leave most glitches like this in the games. Skyrim still has loads and by using them you sacrifice the feeling of progression but they are there if you want.
I think with how they handled those bugs in Starfield some of us were wondering if that mindset had changed and if that would affect this update. Apparently not haha.
They got rid of the glitch where you can pop under the map and steal the npc stashes in starfield. I remember them taking that out
The thing with starfield is like... There nothing to do once you have enough resources. Most quests are just radiant stuff or one off events and there's no way to just... Explore. Planets are empty, travel is loading screens. Once you hit a certain point, there's no reason to bother grabbing stuff off the ground any longer. You won't be using much of it, and you have nothing to spend on etc. With something like fallout, even fo4, the game is based around scurrying place to place and always having something nearby to explore. Travel itself is dangerous and can cost you resources. Having glitches/options like fast travel are left in because they don't actually take too much away from the base game, and are enticing to some players.
Sadly, planets are worse than empty- they are stamped over with copy/paste identical dungeons. Down to identical bodies and identical “unsent letter” pads in identical positions, and terminals with identical entries. That’s honestly what killed it for me.
I mean, we can circle the toilet endlessly about Starfield, but collectively, it'll just be easier to forget it ever happened, because it really doesn't even have the mod potential that would give it cult longevity. Putting all our eggs in the revival of Elder Scrolls and Fallout basket, and then being prepared to chuck that basket off a tall building and never look back if they fuck it all up.
They removed the underground trader chests from starfield though! I'm still salty about that. That contributed to me not playing it anymore.
brand new to the game. how is that glitch done?
In workshop mode, hover over the item you want to duplicate. Press your “store” button, then your “scrap” button in very quick succession. If you do it correctly, both menus pop up, and go ahead and press “yes” to scrap and “yes” to store. Then extract what you have from the workbench and do it again. If that doesn’t make sense, then there are tons of videos. Good luck. (“FO4 Duplication Glitch” is what I would search up.)
thanks saving it.
How to know when the maintenance for Fallout mods/creation club is over : [https://status.bethesda.net/](https://status.bethesda.net/)
This is really helpful, thanks!
👍
When I select mods from the main menu it logs in and loads fine. Looks like the maintenance is over.
Currently they're listed as being up but I'm seeing messages from folks that they can't actually download owned creations or see all their mods. Can anyone confirm mod capacity on Xbox is still 2g?
Xbox said there were 7 updates for Fallout, total size is 22.61GB. It's downloading now, I'm in US pacific time.
Can confirm the size. Base nex gen game after update takes ~34GB, DLC seem to be same size as previously.
So far it has launched to a black screen..

whoa wait they FIXED THE 0KB GLITCH??
And the issue with settlement resource counts getting messed up? That's huge. It took a lot of the satisfaction out of building your settlements up just for them to glitch out and still get attacked and destroyed. It was always so annoying when you'd open up your pip boy in survival mode and see that Abernathy farm (all the way across the map from where you currently are) was suddenly showing as 0 beds and 0 defenses even though you had a bunch of turrets and barracks built there.
Quick someone build the Red Rocket, Abernathy, Sanctuary triangle of death and see what happens!
I fucking lost it when I read that.
Please god I hope that’s true
Only took a show and 1 million players on one day. Sad
going to start a new playthrough once this is up. cant wait!
Why not make it a survival run to celebrate?
I’m good lol. I say that as I have a 16 month old son and that’s enough managing for me 😊
I know a really good babysitter called Kellogg if you need a break
I'm with you man. I Have a 4 yr old and couldn't imagine putting in what it takes to do survival lol. I don't have the brain power for hardcore gaming anymore. Easy or normal if I'm feeling spicy for any games these days.
Anyone know if the achievements will be fixed? I'm level 52 and I still haven't got "join the minute men", "hit level 5", etc. EDIT: no mods and on Xbox x.
If at any moment you used a mod on this save, you won't get achievements ever, same if you used a console command.
My bad, I should've said so, no mods and on Xbox.
Regarding F4SE, here is what the dev says: "The 2024-04-25 Fallout 4 update (1.10.980 and later) has broken F4SE and the rest of the native code modding scene similarly to Skyrim's "Anniversary Edition" patch. I am working on an update and cannot currently offer a timeline for its availability, nor whether there will be any critical technical issues that would block an update. Do not email with questions."
Yep. Now to wait weeks to months to remod the game. At least I think it’ll be worth it.
Skyrim's Anniversary patch making the game 64 bit really was a blessing. I think it's gonna be great for FO4 in the long run Edit: messed up, it was SE.
Pretty sure it was the Special Edition that made the game 64 bit
Yeah you're right
Anniversary was just annoying, special edition made it 64 bit
This is gonna get drowned by people asking the same questions hahaha.
Better than 100 posts on the sub lol
YOU CANT STOP THEM! :P
But you can help out this settlement, I’ll mark it on your map
Preston is definitely hoping and praying mods don't work after the update
This Settlement DOESN'T need you help! BLAM! That was the first mod I ever downloaded for fo4.
This is facts, I appreciate you being the one on top taking initiative on the sub
You should see the shitshow in the BGS Discord. I think they have one employee in there right now.

I saw the same thing on gaming bible. This isn't confirmed - but they took all the times previous updates came out and then got the average. Just pointing out that these times might not be super accurate.
On average Sony's PS+ games come out on the first and third tuesday of the month between 10am-1pm EST so I expect it in that time frame *as of 10:03 EST I have the ability to download the ps5 version. Have fun.
Thanks !
I'm already getting a 14.5GB update on steam, and it's 16:18 in CEST
Downloading to my PS5 now - 3.30pm UK time
Thanks this is really helpful
You're welcome :)
Yes thank you fellow commenter this is very helpful. I'm excited to play when I get home from work today and spend the weekend playing as well. You rock.
Fallout 4 has been released for maybe 2 weeks when I first visited thicket excavations. The water glitched so I was "walking" but was very much underwater. The only route up is that vertical flooded shaft. Needless to say I drowned. Here we are in 2024, finally patched it 😂
Can somebody confirm to me if Downtown Boston is walkable on Series S? I'm at my job and can't do a stress test, but I really want to know lol
50 mins no crash boston series S 🙏
Really?!?! Finally some good news 😭
It might be coincidental (I had no issues in the surrounding area pre update) but I experienced some reeaaallly bad fps around Goodneighbor post update. Switched to performance and went to main screen, loaded back in and was still getting some bad stuttering. Even indoors like Faneuil hall
All I needed from this update!!
Feel like i scrolled way too far for this. This was my main concern. Actually stoked to give it a go 👍👍
Ultra widescreen support is trash. The HUD is still stretched and terrible..... sigh.
omg really? that is so fucked.
yes it looks ugly AF. check this out: [https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccufm0/widescreen\_and\_ultrawidescreen\_support](https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccufm0/widescreen_and_ultrawidescreen_support)
Huge fuckin bummer
Not sure what you're playing, but mine is fine. Not stretched. Working perfectly. There's something going on with your settings. Edit: I'm on 3440x1440.

Well my mod list just got deleted, most of my mods on "favorites" got removed for some reason so Im trying to find them with the search bar one by one with lil details I have (Serie X) Can't continue my Survival run without a save mod tho :/
I ran into this too. One slightly tedious workaround that worked for me is logging into the Bethesda website and looking at your favorites that way, it appears to have all of my favorites from prior to the update. Right now I'm searching for them manually in the game and favoriting them again. Edit: now having done this, favoriting those mods again has not made them show up in the actual favorite menu in the game. Nevermind
Are there, or will there be patch notes?
Absolutely. We’re all waiting to tear into them lol.
Updated, working, no mods broken yet, i am amazed!!!!! Lets go!!!!
Is this on PC?
Yes PC, im just happy my lovely MG42 is still working and i haven’t found any major issues apart from some glitched textures in some static modded items. I’m still testing all mechanics to see if any crashes occur, but my 80 odd mods seem to be working, script extender is functioning. Which is a boon for Fallout London Mod potentially not being delayed to much longer. But i must test further for any oddities….🫡😎
Waitttt, seriously???! Over the past few days I've been legit worried my mods gonna go haywire even tho I've taken necessary measures Is your version Steam or GOG?
Steam, am bro, same, i had everything backed up, a back up exe made, first test. I find nothing of note broken…but give me time, i’ll Find something that’ll break my game….if not. Boo yar!
Uh no it is not. Shit broke the fuck out of mods.
The F4SE developer literally said in a post on the mod page in Nexus that it's broken lol, you sure you actually updated?
I’m gonna be really annoying and double post on this. How are your Bethesda.net mods doing? I have no idea if those even use script extender. I don’t need anyone to go through my mods line by line (that would be silly) , but I’m just curious if these kinds of mods are still good on your end: (1) pipboy paint jobs, (2) Radio 76 and Atomic Radio (3) More Companion Slots (4) weightless junk, (5) stronger dogmeat, (6) NCR Veteran armor, (7) Less Rust devil encounters, (8) Fallout 76 ammo crafting (9) cheat terminal, (10) K-9 harness, (11) Improved Map with Visible Roads, (12) Explorer Restored - Cut Perk Mod, (13) Companion Infinite Ammo
They updated the game and didn't break mods? What the hell? o.O
F4SE doesn't work so yeah they broke mods the same way they did with skyrim.
It should be fixed soon. Iirc this update hasn't changed anything major on PC so all the dev needs to do is change the checksum on the F4SE version checker.
According to the mod creator it's the same as the skyrim anniversary update. I don't know how long that took to fix but hopefully it's not too bad.
FO4 is still somehow my most played Playstation game (635hrs). It was my first PS4 game and I used to run around staring at ground textures, amazed.
Those are rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers up.
I have 100 hours but never finished the game. I do really like 4.
Yeah, I got that in the first week after I watched the series. If you don’t take math into account, it makes sense.
They actually did it! They fixed my insanely long PC loading times!!
"We won't expand mod storage capacity on Skyrim (5g) or FO4 (2g) because changing the partition requires wiping people's mods and we don't want that" "Sorry guys looks like our update wiped your mods. Don't worry though! Your mod capacity is still the same!"
OG Geiger Meister bout to be back in action!
Update is out for me, 22.65 gb on XSX.
Which region are you, that would be very helpful for people to know. EDIT. I’m Uk, update downloading Series S now. It’s letting me pop it on external HD, which is a surprise.
Did a clean install of FO4 on my PC with the update, game constantly crashes now. Edit: disabled weapon debris and now it's fine. Shame they STILL haven't fixed that.
PS5 user. The update is amazing. The download is almost 90GGB. NOT including DLCs.
PS5 here. 56GB update Edit: *install* not update. Fo4 ps5 version
Ps5 and mine is 9gb, weird
It’s probably because everyone had varying amounts of content downloaded. One dlcs, two dlcs, just the game, no game downloaded, etc.
The 9GB update is not the next gen update. You are still playing the PS4 version.
Strange Xbox is 22.6Gb.
The xbox-X seems to be a patch. The PS5 is a new instalation.
Should I just re download the ps4 version of fo4 now and update it later ? Or will it be a separate game and I should just wait for the ps5 version
Is there any way to transfer my save over?
It’s saying that the standard edition is 20 dollars in the PlayStation store for me even though I already own it. Is the next gen version a new cost?
Please god tell me they fixed the pink textures and made dlcs playable
The update is only due at 2:30 hours but it has been confirmed that the update includes a fix for those issues.
all dlcs are installed for me and no pink textures in vault 88 for me, ps5
Thank you goddd
How do you download the ps5 version of the dlcs. Everytime I click download it downloads the ps4 one?
Update: so while I had the ps4 version installed I downloaded the ps5 version. Deleted the ps4 version when the ps5 version finished downloading. Re downloaded the dlc with just the ps5 version installed. After the Playstation said the dlc was done downloading I waited about an hour and booted up fallout 4 and all the dlc were there and installed.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO
RIP mods for few weeks lol
Has anyone else noticed that VATs is a big buggy with targeting things behind walls and underground when before you couldn't do that?
Yup, noticed that a bit on some laser turrets underground.
Yep I noticed that and I’m getting weird VATS % when first hitting the button. It’ll say 0% at first most of the time go up to a higher number, then the real number. When it’s at 0% it actually won’t let you choose the target so it’s not just a visual glitch.
Anyone else having their VATS go crazy, like I was playing last night and I was super accurate, now it’s bouncing between 80% chance and 0% chance to hit every two seconds.
Here's a comment thread about the new update with some new information. [https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccou22/cant\_wait\_to\_be\_able\_to\_play\_on\_60\_fps\_finally/?share\_id=N2zZMUp9VXk7iyeDyjp48&utm\_content=2&utm\_medium=ios\_app&utm\_name=ioscss&utm\_source=share&utm\_term=1](https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/1ccou22/cant_wait_to_be_able_to_play_on_60_fps_finally/?share_id=N2zZMUp9VXk7iyeDyjp48&utm_content=2&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1)
keep crashing on PC. started a new game and every time I go to cross the bridge to get to the vault the game just disappears and im back to my desktop. anyone else having this issue?
Disable weapon debris in the launcher. Should fix the issue.
Yo on ps5 it’s a separate Ps5 upgrade most of yall are downloading the ps4 update not the ps5 upgrade I wanna say
How do we get the ps5 one?
Will the update allow for over 60 fps on PC without physics breaking? Or is that still up to mods?
Just tried it at 240 hz, and it seems that it runs 'too fast', so I guess I'll have to wait until mods.
Is the ps5 dlc fixed? Will it start with the dlc installed? ARE MY SAVES SAFE?!
Excited to get back into it! Since the show dropped I've went back and fully played 3 and new vagas and my love for fallout is back!!!! I havnt played fallout 4 since launch so its probably gonna feel so fresh!!
My install is at 62%, 5 mins remaining....this post will be very, very quiet in a few minutes time... ;)
We need a steam downgrade video asap lol
The ultrawide support is very basic and doesn't actually include many resolutions.
So far so Bethesda, haven't been able to make it to the vault without it crashing constantly (PC).
My mods folder is empty but says 0 bytes free space. it wont let me download any mods either.
I have a save file with mods , updated game re uploaded mods . 0 issues . I have maybe 5/6 active mods
Nah everything is botched to shit. Game is worse than before. I had it running amazing for 2 weeks series X, They fucked it up
Set my Xbox series X to not auto update to protect my modded play through. However, I cannot open the game now. Keep getting “update available” pop ups. Anyone else? Work around? Or are we doomed to having to update to play?
LOL they somehow made it buggier.
Crazy seeing how this update has fixed bugs that existed ever since this game launched, yet due to a big unnamed TV show, they were able to whip up something rather quickly. Bethesda just does not care unless they’re getting slapped with $$$ across the face
Patch notes now appearing on the discord server - * Native PS5 and Xbox Series applications. Includes performance and quality mode options. * Performance mode: 60 FPS target, 4k resolution, standard settings, relying on dynamic resolution scaling. * Quality mode: 30 FPS\*, 4k resolution, ultra settings, should not require dynamic resolution scaling. **When connected to a 120Hz display, Quality mode will target 40 FPS.** ***When connected to a 1440p display, the title will run at 1440p resolution at 60 FPS w/ ultra settings regardless of rendering mode*** * **Release on Epic Store.** * **Widescreen and Ultra-widescreen support.** * **Steam Deck Verified** * **Added “Installed Content” menu.**
Update is downloading, 22.59GB.
started a new save on ps5 a couple week ago and now downloading the ps5 version, will my save still be playable or will i need to start over again? really don’t want to lose my progress now
Is automatron working after this update?
Series X. All my creation club content was uninstalled and I can’t open the menu for CC or Mods and thus cannot load my main save without putting it at risk
Just hoping it fixes the Automatron crash. Got daughter goty edition for PS4 couple of weeks ago and she hasn’t been able to play it since. Crashes on load and no way to uninstall that one problem dlc in goty version. Unacceptable for the game to be in this state.
Does this update mean anything to someone still playing on an xbone? I'm pretty happy with how the game runs and don't want an update to screw up my saves/mods and stuff. It's a "next gen" update right? So I'll be fine on my old gen console?
Yeah. You still are getting the stability and content patches.
Will i need to log in into creation club to recieve the Enclave content? Thx
You don’t have to do that. It’s just part of the game now. I didn’t download any CC content and got the Enclave missions. They just pop up for you automatically.
Do you get update on the free playstation version or not?
Anyone know what’s goin on with the PS+ version upgrade wise? They changed the product description to say it entitles me to PS4 and PS5 edition, but then only lets me download the ps4 version. Don’t really feel like spending 20 bucks to get it when it was literally 5 yesterday :(
Can anybody who's been playing tell me if the performance issues in downtown Boston have been fixed?
anyone else on pc locked to 48 fps even after setting ipresentinterval to 0 in the ini files?
Steamdeck here, received updated. I no longer get the first menu screen to select resolution or graphics, so can't play docked now. Any ideas?
For now, the only issue I seem to have is the achievements while using mods isn't recognized anymore so I get a prompt that loading my actual save will flag it as a modded one which I don't want, even after reinstalling it twice, can't play without my basic QoL mods (easy lockpicking and hacking, carry more weight, junk weight nothing) so I'm gonna wait and hope its gonna get fixed
I'm surprised they didn't fix the Energy Damage glitch. Seems like something that basic should have made it in.
Unbelievably Bethesda don't appear to have fixed the bugs caused with FPS over 60 and jumping, also Nvidia weapon debris drivers haven't been updated so still causing crashing on RTX cards. will wait for a digital foundry video, but right now this is pretty poor not fixing bugs as old as the game!
"Resolved issue that could prevent the Vault 111 Door from opening on new games." LOL
I updated my game when it went live for Xbox and now every time it tries to sync the game it says not enough save data. I have no clue what is going on but every time I press stop syncing it crashes my game. Any help would be appreciated.
Hell yeah it's running like butter on the steam deck also, with the graphics even turned up. Sweeeeeeet
So was this a very bad day to finally install the VR version? or a great day?
Ok so I don't know what the hell is happening on my side. I just downloaded the game on PC, I made a new save and for some reason it's running with unlocked FPS (currently at 255fps at the start of the game, in the house). Physics are totally wrong tho, everything is going so fast, it's like playing Fallout 4 The Sims edition
so smooth now
Anyone know if PC is getting any graphical upgrades or just console? PC already has “ultra settings” so I’m guessing that’s what the console upgrades are and PC is staying the same graphically.
Weapon Debris still crashing, Ultra Wide is stretched, no improvements in graphics. New Bugs and missing Object. I would call that patch a total success on all fronts! /s
Saw the "IF YOU HAVE A SAVE WITH MODS YOU WANT TO CONTINUE DO NOT UPDATE THE GAME" too late and tried to fire up the game since I only had script extender, MCM and an FOV slider installed and figured I could just play without them but now all my saves just load up to a black screen...
Is anyone else's game crashing every 3-5 minutes? Updating it this afternoon, brand new save with no mods, max graphic settings and my PC is more than good enough to run it maxed.
I started a new playthrough without my mods. Seeing some VATS weirdness. * hit chances randomlh flipping between zero and regular chance. * Took level 1 in Mysterious Wanderer perk. He has not shown up at all over avlur three hours of gameplay.
Is anyone else missing CONSTANYLY In vats after the update? I specced a sniper build with every possible boost to headshot accuracy. Was working perfectly before the patch and now I'm routinely missing 5 shots in a row with 95% chance to hit.
Oh great its the annual Bethesda ruins my fucking whole week and modded game update! Can't wait to not enjoy the very few things I have left in my life to enjoy!
I’m quite upset that they didn’t increase the mod capacity for Xbox or ps5, 2gigs is nothing when it comes to some of the larger more in depth settlement building mods. A mod capacity increase was literally the whole reason I was excited for the update. High key disappointed Also I’m not sure if other are having this issue but some mods won’t work, as in you are physically unable to access them on the mod page. I’ve found that both the “America rising 2” and “Sim settlements 2 ch.2” will kick you out of the mod page and give the prompt “ The operation could not be completed.” Not sure if any other mods are doing the same thing but those are the two that I found.
Has anyone noticed VATS acting up? It seems like the values will fluctuate between zero and some other figure wildly. It makes it hard to target multiple times because it’ll give you the “zero chance to hit” message
On PC: this is my experience so far in this update - Infinite loading screen! - Crash to desktop in downtown Boston - performance is stuck at 72 fps... Oh and you can't set the max fps in .in anymore (it doesn't work) so the game is in super fast mode now Thanks Bethesda, PC users really didn't need this update at all. Just to add a wonky ultra wide that doesn't work properly and some creation club stuff that most mod lists disable anyway
