This is a useless update especially for PC, and only hinders FO London's release. Completely useless.

Defiantly considering the quality mode is broke lol. I was more so looking forward to London
Damn, still not showing up on my end. Guess the wasteland will have to wait.
Weapon Debris was crashing it for me too so glad its not just me.
Does anyone have a fix for the FOV? I had set custom World and FPS values in the INI file but the game seems to ignore it now.

You can just open the console and type the FOV you want. You will need to do it each time you play, which is maybe not the answer you are looking for.
Playing on Series X. Logged 6 hours prior to today, experienced a couple bugs, but nothing game breaking. I was trying to play on Survival to heighten the experience but lowered the difficulty after dying in the same spot three times towards the end of a quest. Wish I wouldn't have lowered the difficulty, i was definitely enjoying it more with the extra mechanics. Of course after lowering the difficulty i found a bed that would've helped me out a bunch prior to lowering the difficulty. Would love customization like in Grounded, where you can tweak each setting to exactly how you want to play.
The bump to 60fps on Series X post update is great. Haven't noticed anything else.

No? I just DLed all the stuff all over again an hour or so.
Yeah was looking for like I had it before, I used to have the weapon FOV further out as it feels too close in UW for me at the moment. Thanks though!
I see it right there in both the Steam and Series X versions.
Game is running fantastically for me in both instances. PC is a 13700, 4080, Series X is a mini-fridge looking thing.
so far so good on ps5
runs a solid 60
maybe some dipping during the deathclaw fight in concord but not too noticeable
loading is fast too

there have, in fact, been multiple words that it will get the free upgrade.
Heh, based on reading this thread, kind of baffled why they even updated the PC version. Sounds like things that were an issue before like the weapon debris crash remain so. Perhaps with how 'incremental' this update is that once F4SE is updated the vast majority of mods will continue to be supported without needing new updates (which would be ideal since I imagine a lot of mod authors have moved on in the past 9 years), but will see.
Yeah, can't argue with that.
F4SE's creator called out this the same way Skyrim's Anniversary Edition broke everything. If you didn't buy the Anniversay Edition, the update did practically nothing, but it utterly decimated your mods. I held off on the update for quite a while before finally running it, and after a week they released another update, which I also put off for like six months. And when I finally updated it a week or two ago, it took me several hours to get the game running again. It's ridiculous. Their "love and support" for the modding community only goes so far, it seems.
I have this on with Horizon and it rebalances everything. I can't wait until I can update the game with F4SE, most people said their mods worked (the ones that did not require F4SE).
They changed the compiler, it's like AE for Skyrim. Mods will need major updates.
I've been itching to play Fallout 4 but I knew in my heart of hearts that this update would launch with a bunch of issues and it would probably be months before it would all be (hopefully) patched up. That's just the state of games these days and it's doubly true for a Bethesda release. At least it sounds like they fixed the really bad crashing that was happening on Series S. Hopefully it stays that way over the course of the next couple of patches.
Yeah honestly it's pretty wild that they pushed this out for PC like they did. Could've just been a free DLC pack instead of a patch. The "widescreen support" is a joke, and it's not like they added DLSS or higher frame rate support or anything.
That weapon debris bug is going to turn so many players away from the game. If Bethesda isn't going to bother fixing it, they should add some kind of warning about it at least. I just happened to find out about it by searching for posts about crashing on the Steam forums.
Hm, on Series X some mods I try to download kick me out to the main menu, is the maintenance still ongoing? Not that I know if it's related at all
I spent a bit of time with it on my xbox series x. I used the 1440p mode and the resolution bump helps a lot. I played previously on the fps boost mode that is 1080p.
The main update, on PC, i was hoping for was an update to loading speeds to take advantage of ssds. I havent updated my pc copies yet but im getting the impression that it didnt happen.

Maybe it's because I've never played a single Fallout game and am currently super in to the show, but I have had an enjoyable 3 hours so far. I do agree that there seems to be no difference between quality/performance modes on XSX, and the VATS dmg numbers seem fucked up, but my enjoyable is not being hindered at all.
The vibe of the game is fucking amazing. Why have I been sleeping on Fallout?

Assume no mods are working for the time being. The only stuff that works is creation club downloads.
Considering the issues it added, this update shouldn't have released on PC, but man I'm glad it got released on Xbox. Prior to this update, I literally couldn't explore around Boston Common and Goodneighbor on One S or Series S due to constant crashing. Faneuil Hall in particular was an area I couldn't even look at without the game sending me to the dashboard. I just ran around Boston Common, Goodneighbor, and Faneuil Hall murdering shit, with no crash on Series S, though there were some frame drops.
Damn that sucks then. Wonder how many mod authors will come back to update these then. Briefly some of the mods I've been looking at over the past few weeks haven't been updated since 2016-2017. Don't know how the mod scene bounced back after that Skyrim update, but honestly just feels like such an unforced error. Why break 9 years of mod support for this? I realize probably not all mods are broken after this, but still.

Garbage update honestly. Don't understand why it's so hard to implement a native FOV slider for these games, 9 whole years later.
Was expecting a Witcher 3 type next gen patch.

Quick PSA that maybe 9 years ago it didn't make sense with 1080 displays and older PCs/GPUs, but NOW....with modern machines and 4K displays, the 50 gig High Resolution Pack really solves the lower res textures problem in some areas.
You can compare right at the start in Shaun's room, the SPECIAL book, the furniture, everything.

As always, if people want to break the game, head over to vault 81 and by the Overseers Guardian
Man, wasted time downloading and waiting for it to complete and install only to realize that I picked the PS4 version (I started the download through the phone app). Now to delete and download again...
Yeah, it's the dialog interface. What a shame, that was thé mod I wanted this playthrough, lmao.
