Fallout 76 Power Armor Edition - Windows

I bought this collectors edition for the helmet with no intention of playing the game. Too many other great games out right now and Fallout 76 itself looks very mediocre. The helmet itself is amazing, huge and fully wearable with an adjustable frame inside like you would see on a construction hard hat. The plastic used for the eyes are a bit foggy, so hardcore users may want to replace that with something else. It is sturdy and well built but still light enough to be comfortable. It also has a cloth transition around the neck to help conceal any skin. The moving eye piece feels a bit flimsy so be careful with that. The map board and figurines are nothing special, just plastic army men type figurines. Bag is OK but I probably won’t use it. Not sure where I am going to stick that amazing helmet though it is almost too large. Took a star off because the game is lackluster and BestBuy shipped the entire thing in its retail box and it got all wet and dirty due to snow and bad weather. I probably won’t keep the massive box but would’ve been mad if I wanted to. I would only recommend this to hardcore fallout fans who want the toy and already have Pip Boy, lunch box, mini Nuke etc.

The last two games I've got the special editions and I wont again they lied about the bag you get to hold the helmet. It was supposed to be canvass, but its nylon. The one I got from best buy there were batteries in it already really badly beaten up ones. It came with new ones too. I don't know why it had battieries in it, but they are same brand and the ones that were prepackaged in the box.

Promised it would come with canvas bag, received nylon bag instead.

Helmet is better made than most of the collectables generally included in these collections. Nice map. Terrible game. Would have been a GREAT single player game but they left out the NPC's and bogged you down with requirements such as CONSTANTLY needing to find food, water, meds...what was an optional play style in other games. And to make matters worse frustrated PVP players find the need to grief other players that just want to do quests (most of which are poorly set up). Nothing like someone jumping in front of you while crafting or throwing grenades at you when you ignore their antics. So if it's just about the game take a pass on this. If you just want the collectables...go for it.

The game itself has it's problems. But this edition has it's problems too. The canvas bag isnt canvas it's made of nylon. ... I was pretty saddened by this. For the price you would hope you would get what you pay for. But ... sigh. There ain't a physical game disc. Theres no soundtrack theres a cool map and nice mini figures. The helmet itself is ok. The harness inside is not so great. But the outside piece is pretty cool. Not really something to cosplay in. But a good display piece.

The game was released clearly unfinished and conceptually flawed. I've been a Fallout special edition collector since F3. Sad to see the promise of a delightful canvas bag versus the crushed thin nylon bag they included. Sadder still has been the communication and poor response to the community of loyal fans Bethesda has essentially grifted in this roll out. Hard to imagine being a day one buyer or even interested in a new Bethesda game again. You have lost karma!

As a fan of the series I was excited for the new game, but it's very, very glitchy. A major problem is getting stuck in power armor. You can take it off, sort of, but you end up in your underwear with a disfigured body and cant get back into it or fix the problem without running through an entire fusion core, dying, and restarting the game! And it's now multiplayer only, no more mods, and lots of server crashes. I prefer the older Fallout games. And FYI, you won't get a canvas bag with this kit, they switched it to a cheap nylon bag.

The game is not bad, but it might not be the fallout you know and love. As for the contents of the box, the little army men are cool, the helmut is wonderful, I wouldn't be able to make something like this of my own, but it is a little too plasticky? But the bag is certainly not the bag that is pictured. It's nylon, and not canvas. So be aware.
