    Is this inching towards a battle royal feature. I'm avoiding this game for at least a year & not trusting Bethesda's word, t least not enough to pre-purchase. Bethesda's action were pretty bad regarding FO76 but their reactions were possibly worse which to give credit they have "promised" to correct a few of those oopsy decisions.

    A Fallout 76 update that is not negative or controversial?

    *mind blown*

    Wait, but Fallout 76 is already a survival game. A bad one.

    It's just weird to call it "survival mode" instead of "hard mode" or "hardcore mode."

    Yes instead of focusing of the features that made your game stand out (more co-operative game play, questing, exploration, crafting) you focus on part that everyone else does (and does so much better).

    Plus PvP was a mess last i played and the game economy was/is full of dupers so this just sounds like its gonna be a great big mess.

    Theoretically sounds good, let's just hope it doesn't get mismanaged as bad as Daybreak did H1Z1.

    Thank you for the picture. You gave me inspiration to find a movie i've been trying to find for ages.

    "Gymkata" 1985. Movie was amazing when I was a child.

    On to the topic at hand.

    Whatever!

    I love how this conversation derailed to amazing vintage movies/cult classics. (Honestly its a better topic so no complaints from me.)

    I'm not very familiar with the exact premise of Fallout 76, but I thought it was part of the survival genre.

    Reading the actual content update bullets, I fail to see anything relevant to the survival. It would be more accurate to say that Battle Royale gameplay aspects are creeping into Fallout 76.

    We have lived through decades of MMO gaming that has shown the problems with having more than one form of PvP in a game and the care that needs to be taken to ensure separation of goals, rewards and so on. But to hell with that lets just add game modes!
  • vegetableoilvegetableoil Member RarePosts: 768
    I guess they remove the pvp restriction?
  • WizardryWizardry Member LegendaryPosts: 19,332
    "Survival mode coming"ummm so not one single person sees the irony of that statement?

    This ALREADY was suppose to be a "survival game...roflamo.I guess   they are afraid to use a phrase like battle Royale coming.Let's toss immersion aside and just create a box filled with land and trees and flag pvp,yep that should take a boatload of effort to pull off.....zzzzzzzz.

    They should just send out a presser saying ...."GAME" is coming soon in next update AND we are not going to charge you anything more,well maybe we will add some cash shop though or season pass tickets.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

  • WizardryWizardry Member LegendaryPosts: 19,332
    So yeah they will sell some pvp tickets or something and not feel any shame or remorse for ripping people off......TWICE !!.

    Oh great, let's give our players something they never wanted or asked for in a Fallout game.

    Bethesda Games: Heya playahs! Yo, here's a shit-sandwich. Oh, you know you want it, now eat it and enjoy! And when you're done with that, we've got a shit-sandwich with piss-aux-juice. It just gets better, yo! Wait until we unveil our diarrhea smoothy, next! Pre-orders for the alpha are already available.

    Moar PvP thats a Game mode i wont need there are like 15000000 Pvp games out there. Why not just make 1 good Group Koop based Pve Game with an actual end game or things to do once your max lvl beside just raiding for example ? But it would be so niche just about 50 million ppls would play it in contrast to the 500000000 : 15000000 pvp games gamers. 20 Years ago pvp quickly proved to me as a game mode that is often times more frustrating then fun. I believe the world doesnt soly constist of pvp players why are there only such a few group pve games today ? What went wrong i wonder.
