Our review of Fallout 4: Far Harbor went live this week, heavily criticising the add-on's performance on the PlayStation 4. Many argued that we should have given the expansive expansion a pass considering the quality of the content contained within, but we believe that critical framerate issues such as those encountered in this instance should be punished – the content isn't cheap, after all.
For those of you who forked out ahead of our appraisal going live, however, you may be wondering what's next. Well, to its credit, Bethesda has released a statement noting that it's "actively working on more improvements". We sincerely hope that this solves the issue swiftly, because the publisher has been mistreating PlayStation players for far too long now.

Good to hear. Fix the frame rate and I'll play through it again and maybe enjoy it this time!
They should have delayed and fix before release
Wow.entitled much?it's a fantastic chunk of content,not just story but weapons,crafting options and more.this one pack justifies the original 29.99 price tag.to bash Bethesda and cry "they have been mistreating PlayStation players far too long",sounds more like a personal issue than a true evaluation of content.frame rate is an issue worth noting in a review,not basing an entire opinion on.and personally,I've had the frame rate drop twice.solid content folks.play and have fun in the fog.
From what little I've played, the frame rate is pretty bad. Love the look and the story so far. Hope they fix it soon and also add a trophy for completing the new survival mode (I just need it okay!)
@Bkhaotic1 Entitled to something that should work as intended? If you somehow haven't had any frame rate issues then fair enough, but please don't act like this isn't a problem. Or would you rather Bethesda never improve as a developer?
Far harbor on ps4 is virtually unplayable with such poor performance issues. If I had paid £20 for this I would be wanting a refund, as it stands I guess I'll have to wait for a patch before trying again.
The low review score given to FH is appropriate for the frame rates experienced by the reviewer. I have also experienced the poor frame rates and agree 100% with the review and score given.
There is also the issue with season pass holders as they can not pass on purchasing FH because of technical problems reported because they have already purchased it.
Shouldn't have gone live on ps4 with such issues. No ifs or buts.
