New Vegas charting that high in a revenue chart while costing 2.49 is impressive
Nice
Nice
EDIT:
you can try these mods but if you do, disable FPS boost and possibly HDR depending on the mod
without the mod, FPS boost on, Series X
60 fps ultra settings 90 fov mod, FPS boost disabled
No Mod
Mod on
Mod off
Mod on, seems to be hold 60fps most of the time but I not done much stress testing

I'm really considering giving Fallout (probably 4, maybe New Vegas) another shot because of how great the show is. Only Fallout I ever played was 4, but it lost me after a couple hours.
I'm hesitating a bit because of how they have aged graphically, but I imagine there are mods on PC to bring it more up to date.
Not saying that an OT would be necessary, but it would be pretty cool to have a Lite OT of sorts with the next-gen patch dropping in a week and with Fallout being the talk of the industry lately.

5 days ago, there were 3 Fallout games in Steam top 10 (United States) in terms of Daily Active Users

WHAT A SUCCESS!!!! ggs to all PS players out there enjoying this amazing franchise, lets go!
Xbox/Microsoft seeing this...... I hope they are thinking about if the next Fallout main game is not exclusive to Xbox/PC or if it is Multiplatform day one
That did not age very well
Let me explain why this is actually nothing notesworthy:
Got it?
Anyway, I got Fallout 4. I almost got New Vegas but I think I'll only be playing it if they make a remaster.
A week went by and the game is now 100K, great.That did not age very well
However my statement still stands. One game vs multiple games in terms of 100K CCU gives a very different impression. So I don't see the point in quoting me.
Crazy that there are two games (Fallout 2 and Fallout 76) hitting new all-time Steam peaks at the same time.
I hope this is the fuel that the development behind 76 needs to keep the steady amount of content flowing.
Seems like they've been fairly consistent so far but it's nice seeing such a resurgence.

Fair. I found it funny, i did not expect it to reach 100K either.
Fallout is more interesting, even the divisive FO4 has a better opening. Same goes for exploring the world, the UI and sorely missed Pip Boy. Starfield obviously has better shooting but the Fallouts have VATS and infinitely more mods and no ridiculous amount of loading screens. I'm currently playing New Vegas (mostly vanilla) and despite its age, it's still a fun RPG.
You can count me as one of these people. I haven't touched a fallout game since 4 released, and at the time I found it a little disappointing. No real reason why - I think I just found the Bethesda formula a little tired for me personally at the time.
Now I'm 8 hours deep into Fallout 3 on the steam deck, completely loving it, and I finally decided to learn how to get through the opening difficulty spike of Fallout 1 after watching some YouTube videos.
Of the two, Fallout 1 has seriously gripped me in a deeper way. It feels a little small in comparison to modern games, but I love how it approaches storytelling and only gives you minimal suggestions on what you need to do, trusting that you can think through things, since it doesn't have a traditional journal to keep track of quest steps. I'm over here taking notes on my iPad whenever people say something is going down, and I also love that it doesn't feel completely off the wall like older adventure games - most solutions are fairly logical…aside from where you find that first rope (I bartered with the guard at the front gate of Shady Sands).
Excited to get back into it and bust a shady casino operation later tonight.
Only thing I hate…holy shit some items are so hard to see on the ground. I wish it had a Diablo-esque "highlight items" button. I see it's available in mods, but I'm 4 hours deep on a vanilla save and I hear the saves can be kinda finicky with corruption, so maybe if I move on to fallout 2 eventually I'll mod that one before playing.

Damn, it's passed a new all time high CCU today on Steam. 51,368 now. Could have sworn yesterday it was only like 45,000 or so
The new map expansion is now available on public test servers. It's a glorious time for fallout 76
I mean it's an IP that I've been tied into for decades, so yeah.
New Vegas charting that high in a revenue chart while costing 2.49 is impressive
Nice
I remembered the game being on sale and bought it like 5 minutes before the sale ended.
I have yet to watch the show 😬
With all the amazon prime free offers and gamepass you know 76 is actually way higher. Crazy.
It may justify investing in a whole new mode with more players at once etc... It's not like they have ANY new game on the horizon so fleshing out 76 is their next best thing.

People are happy the IP is doing well, yeah.
Why are all your posts in this thread so passive aggressive?
Installing FO3 again on Steam Deck 😎. maybe this time I'll finally finish the game lmao (I suck at finishing Bethesda games)

I just picked up Fallout 4 GOTY for $8.50 on GMG. Going to wait to play it until after the patch before I mod the crap out of it.
invested in a 20+ years old IP that spawned some of the best games of all time? Really?
Started putting together a "comprehensive" modded install of New Vegas last night, since I haven't played the game in like a decade. Went to finish it this morning and Nexus is getting absolutely destroyed:
"Investigating - We are experiencing much more traffic than usual due to the popularity of the Fallout TV series."
Absolutely wild.

Absolutely wild.
IGN released a video yesterday showcasing the Begin Again FO:NV modlist on wabbajack. That vid has 250k+ views and judging from all the new people in the discord, fair bet this is contributing to the Nexus slowdown (on top of all the other Fallout lists being downloaded).
Begin Again is really solid, I installed it a few months ago and love basically everything about it.
I stopped playing Fallout 4 on my Xbox because of the achievement bug, I hope they fix that soon!
