Cashgrab 2 - Fallout 76 gets a subscription service called Fallout1st

Well difference is Fallout 1 is designed to be a single player RPG experience trying to tell a story so yeah, you're going to miss out on a fuck ton if you end 2 hours in. 76 is an MMO that's mean't to be played daily and with the main goal being to "rebuild the world". You're going to experience a lot of what the game has to offer quicker in comparison. I mean, one of my favorite reviews of 76 was from Rags and his gameplay showed he was at least level 50 by the end of it, along with his stories showcasing he experienced quite a bit.

Honestly the most confusing aspect of this whole 76 thing is the slight hypocrisy. You get a games that aren't very good and everyone has with no issues shitting on them but when it comes to 76, with all it's PR and gameplay issues, it's just "people making mountains out of mole hills." Kind of makes me want to play AC: Unity since even a game like that had care put into it.

 

Most of the reviews i checked were from people that played dozens upon dozens of hours to see the most of the content. People like Joseph Anderson, Rags and even Angry Joe (he also has a friend that got to like level 130 or something like that) and they all had lengthy reviews showing examples of everything wrong with the game. And all showed a lot of convincing arguments as to why the game is a colossal disaster.

So no, i'm not gonna waste money on this game to know if it's shit or not. I already hate Fallout 3 and 4, i don't need to subject myself to something very similar, except somehow worse.

If you literally didn't knew a single thing about the game and were shitting on it, then maybe you had no right to criticize it. But after watching several lengthy reviews showcasing a lot what's wrong with the game? I don't need to waste my time with this crap.

 

It's this one.

2 1/2 hours long but most of it is about his experiences with the game. He's friends with Mauler so like him, Rags goes all out on the details rather than skimp over on stuff.

 

To be fair here if you played Fallout 4 then you don't need that many hours in F76 to judge it. So it's not 2-3 hours, it may be 80 hours + 2-3 hours.

 

When you think Bethesda couldn't do anything worse than this.

Press X to doubt

Wait, really? Is this confirmed?

 

It's not "confirmed" but from what they've said about it, and what I've read about it, it doesn't seem to be anything more than a session. If the host is the only Fallout 1st member, it stops the sessions when they leave. A server, in my opinion, would imply that you and whoever you've allowed to join the server could freely join and quit the server with no different repercussions than that of a normal server. I don't understand how something like Nexus mods can be allowed if you can't even have the server running when the Fallout 1st member is offline or that you have to bring in your characters that you started on other servers. That definitely eliminates mods that could affect leveling up, perks, etc.

I could see it being worth way more if you had hosted servers per Fallout 1st subscriber. They get a server ran for them by Bethesda in some way, shape, or form. They can freely mod it, tweak values, etc. but the only caveat would be that those characters on that server are not allowed on any official server.

EDIT: Korin can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, which I very well may be but this is just how I'm interpreting the information. It does seem like sessions not actual hosted servers like one might expect. Apparently it's opening the session in Amazon Web Services for the temporary server?

Bethesda introduced Class Warfare to Fallout 76. Nuke the rich indeed.

 

Eh, I dunno about that. Thought the pvp in that game was almost non-existing, because folks who don't agree to do pvp will barely get any damage dealt to... so this action is a pretty useless thing to do.

Besides, it's kinda hypocritical. If these people were serious, they wouldn't have bought the game in the first place.

 

It's funny anyway.

 

They introduced a new mode called Survival which is a more PvP focused mode. So it's likely happening on those servers?

 

It's absolutely disgusting what Bethesda has done to the Fallout series with Fallout 76...
