Multi-player Fallout
Well it finally goes online. So is it good or bad. Right when the game came out it was bad. But after several updates the game is good but not great especially if your a die hard fallout fan. I like it way better playing with ur friends then playing solo. Plus I caught it on sale for 5.99 plus got a blu-ray Steelcase case with it. So its worth getting the bestbuy app so you can check the deals. FALLOUT 76 7.4 OUT OF 10 BEST BUY APP 9.5 OUT OF 10

Worth the (reduced) price
The game is fun, but it DEFINITELY has its bugs and glitches. With the additional content since launch added for free, the "main storyline" is now extensive, there's significant endgame for both PvE players and crafters/builders alike. And between collectibles, daily quests/challenges, and multiple currency systems, there's always something to do. But...expect glitches, expect crashes, and expect quest-ending bugs. At least once an hour. The game is not the train wreck everyone says it is, but there's a LOT of smoke pouring out of the engine.

Definitely Not A Quality Game
There are not many games I deeply dislike, but this is one of them. Bethesda Game Studios's first multiplayer was a complete disaster. Which is really sad because I do love there single player games. This game just had too many technical & graphical errors to be enjoyable. Avoid at all cost and look for another game.

Great online RPG in the post-apocalyptic genre
Being an avid gamer and proponent of the Fallout series going back to Fallout 2, Fallout 76 is a great addition to the series, and adds the spice of immersive multiplayer to the radiated wastelands of West Virginia in 2101, 25 years after the bombs fell. So far, haven't had any major glitches and the multiplayer system is smooth. You can choose to play single player or team up with other humans (You can also choose to fight them). Interesting world to explore with some hard enemies to fight. VATS system has been updated and you must fight enemies in real-time (no pausing, which I somewhat miss :)) Crafting and building has been streamlined with a portable CAMP system and crafting tables everywhere. While there is plenty to read for the story, my one qualm is that they need to have more roleplaying and interaction options with NPCs, or perhaps this is coming later in the game. So far it's just been robots.

Not worth the hype
I was really excited for this game. I preordered it and came home to play the beta over the weekend. They shut the beta down but still allowed me to purchase it including the code. Okay a bit miffed but okay.. Game comes out with a huge update. Okay so we wait. Finally get to play... Aaaannnndddd it’s lag city. I have to aim at least a half inch to the right to hit anything accurately. I thought maybe the guns were faulty since they were so low leveled. I’m level 18 now still having the same issue. Getting kicked off the server multiple times makes it really tough to keep interested. I played 4 hours last night...Didn’t see another human player the entire time. The map is so vast but there’s nothing in it. They charge sooo much to fast travel and caps are few and far between. But who wants to wonder around the wilderness of WV by themselves with no other means of transportation but your feet? Meh the stash only holds 400 which is totally insane. I have to keep purging items that I want because I’m too heavy and my box is full. I understand this is their first online game, but they really needed to take a page out of Red Dead or GTA5’s books and learn something. Also the game is so dark. I find myself getting attacked by things with no clue where they are because it’s so dark. You just gotta run and hope for the best. The story line feels secondary to just grinding through loooking for items and food. It’s very monotonous. Overall. I’m not too happy. I wish it was as good as it could have been.
