The fact that the team faced difficulties should go without saying, considering the product’s issues made its development history quite clear to those who played it. “We knew that we were going to have a lot of bumps coming out with the game, and we definitely had some, some of them a lot harder than we anticipated,” Howard said. “And this was a very new and different project for us.”
Howard failed to elaborate on the details of what these difficulties were, instead choosing to talk about the developer’s continued dedication to improve upon Fallout 76, adding, “There’s a lot of cool content coming.”
Bethesda is still facing difficulties, as expected, but the really devastating issues facing the title at launch have mostly been ironed out. There have been many strides to fix lingering problems and improve on the experience. For example, the developer recently rolled out a fix for item duplication and server disconnects that were causing headaches for players. Additionally, Stash limits were raised to combat issues with inventory management. All-in-all, jumping into Fallout 76 now will be a better experience than it was at launch.
Those interested in roaming the post-apocalyptic wasteland should take a glance at the game’s roadmap, which provides a clear picture of what new content is coming, such as the Wild Appalachia expansion. With this update, a new crafting system will be introduced that will even allow Fallout 76 players to brew their own beer.
Fallout 76 is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
