Fallout 76

I truly hope this doesn't mean MMO, but I hope it means that you can either play in servers or you can play with just co-op through Steam. Co-op Fallout would be amazing.

Yeah he tweeted again mentioning that it didn't necessarily mean it was an MMO, but that it wasn't going to be strictly a single-player game

Take my money!

Bah, I hate online games. None of my friends really play, I can only play at random times so I cant join other people really. Hope that there is a major "single player" experience here, not some shell meant for co-op (like GTA V online & the focus on heists) or, worse yet (for me), MMO style.

This may be an over-reaction to that one post/news item that came out, I'm just sick of this push to online that seems to be inevitable. Also, I am curmudgeon-ey this week

So the main team from Bethesda worked on it? Sigh.

Was hoping it was a Bethesda Montreal game or something. I wonder what it means for the E3 conference, starfield, etc.

I could live with the latter - I really hope it's not the former.

Amen!

Yeah I admit my hype balloon deflated a bit when I saw Jason's tweet.

I have nothing against co-op (love it, in fact), but rarely can get someone to play with me these days.

I hope there's a great single player experience as well.

Fallout: Battle Royale

Fallout 4 was a big disappointment for me so I am not going to get carried away with any hype.

I am hopeful though. I still adore Fallout 3 (and would love a Switch port of it) so am holding out hope for another great Fallout game.

"Online" makes me wary though.

 

[Mikeaveli]

If this is a Bob the builder simulator I won't be too happy

It was a massive disappointment for me too, which made me so sad. I put the least amount of hours into it compared to any other fallout game.

This seems....interesting, I am more of a single player myself so not sure if I will like it.

My guess is that this is going to be Bethesda experimenting with base/settlement building beyond Fallout 4 to improve the mechanic for Fallout 5

If it's not an MMO, then there aren't too many other alternatives unless they do something groundbreaking. I'm thinking something like GTA Online (as a poster mentioned above) or Destiny. I'm hoping it's more like GTA, where we still get a really solid single player storyline and the online is focused on after launch.

I'm really just hoping that you can play up to 4 people co-op, with the world adjusting the stats according to the number of players in the server. Another online aspect could be something like user made missions or other forms of content that could flow in and out of the game (I think Infamous 2 did this?).

As long as you can play it single player I'm fine with all this. I like being a loner in games.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Meh, count me out.

[Leafs at Knight]

Yea, no thanks from me.

 

[Warden of the North]

Sounds great! Ive always enjoyed the survival aspect of Fallout games the most. The scrounging and barely scraping by etc

 

[Diddy]

I dont think this is going to be a traditional Fallout RPG

Neither was fallout 4.
Adding online co op would be weird for a game where youre the lone wanderer

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

Survival horror games are pretty cool, I'd give it a whirl.
