A Fresh Fallout 4 Patch Has Snuck onto PS4

Bugger! I was hoping it was for the hardcore mode. It's all I'm waiting on to delve in again fresh from the beginning.

I've stopped playing Fallout recently. I got fed up of the settlement issues; zero water, food etc. Having to constantly travel back to settlements - to stop happiness levels dropping like a stone - become a chore, and a diversion from the gameply.

I have no intention of playing it further, until the issues are fixed. Which is such a shame, because I think the game is excellent, otherwie.

@Bloodguard I stopped playing as I accidentally killed a Brotherhood of steel npc and now they hate me. So I cant progress that mission line.

@themcnoisy first rule of Bethesda is multiple save files

@themcnoisy

You could always carry on with the factions left, then restart anew to follow the Brotherhood storyline!?

I will still be playing Fallout 4 for years to come. I was still playing Fallout 3 GOTY edition up until the release of F4. I really wish Bethesda would consider a few remasters of their games.

@Bloodguard @ztpayne7 Yeah I could - maybe I will continue as I am. Bad times, I haven't picked the game up since.

@themcnoisy

I think the game is excellent (sorry for repeating myself) on the whole. Because it has so many different options.

Can we get a patch that makes Preston leave me alone? If he had his way the whole map would be covered in settlements.

This looks fun, I'll have to build some Deathclaw arenas and trap some raiders in them 😃

@themcnoisy

The brotherhood is the best faction IMO, I've previously allied with the Minuteman and Railroad in past playthroughs. I'm going through the game currently (for the second time, we'll I've already beat the main storyline with the Brotherhood)......and I'm enjoying it much more, granted, this time I've skipped settlement building completely, and I think it's for the better (obviously you still have to craft, but that's fine in my book).

@Neolit

Railroad = idiotic idealist that are borderline terrorist
Minuteman = neutral faction that are also the most boring
Brotherhood = militaristic, but also the most fun to play as
Institute = a bunch of rich yuppie snobs

I went with the railroad. I liked that bunch. It suited my stealth playstyle too.

I totally agree buddy. I should have said "a PS4 version or a PC port" because I absolutely loved Fallout 3.
Im not sure why Bethesda haven't done an updated version of either Skyrim or Fallout 3 since they're very popular games, and of course would make Bethesda a tonne of money.

I would happily pay £100 for an anthology of either The Elder Scrolls of the Fallout series that had all dlc included with it. That would probably be my only game purchase of the year.

@glassmusic

You play it how you wish! That's entirely up to you.

But Bethesda did make a massive deal of it at E3, and personally...I like that aspect of the game. I just wish it would run like it's supposed to!

@glassmusic

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound confrontational!

On the whole it is a very good game, and as you say... it's Bethesda. I've been on many forums, looking for an answer to the settlement issues. Unfortunately, none of the answers supplied work, and lots of people seem to be having the problems.

I find it rather annoying, that Bethesda have issued dlc without fixing the bugs and whatnot in the main game first. Don't get me wrong, they have addressed a lot of the issues with their patch releases, but this particular problem is a longstanding one. And one that (depending on gameplay choices) is an integral part of the game.
