Personally I could never get that damn transfer settlement mod to work in Fallout 4. I tied to transfer a few of mine, and even downloaded a few off of nexus to try out.

Your standard for a good game is pretty binary, Joxer.
What's binary in my case is something else. If it ain't good, well, on PC we have a luxury to make it good. With tinkering. Mods. If possible ofc. Sometimes it's not possible. Noone managed to stop bears from instarespawning in Hinterlands.

And now for something different. An opinion from someone who has actually played the game. Someone who doesn't do hysterical Youtube videos for a living, with names like Angry Joe, Terrible Timmothy the Tantrum Throwing Toddler, or Screaming Lord Byron.

I'm shocked Joxer hasn't used MMO in every post in this thread ? We've finally gotten a REAL mmo on the news page and joxer can't seem to say MMO ?

Shame about Fallout 76, but I think most people knew this was a bad idea from the start. Not a bother to me, though - I have so many other games I want to play this year. I'm absolutely swamped with amazing titles.
I don't understand the notion that I have to experience a game to understand it, though. If Fallout 76 doesn't have NPCs, and a reviewer (someone who's meant to illustrate facts for their readers) tells me that, I'll take their word for it (depending on the source of course). I don't need to play the game to see that.
Similarly, while I understand the concept of not partaking in PVP, it also means I'm not making use of an intended feature - the game was designed for multiplayer. PVP doesn't interest me. I also don't typically enjoy crafting either. So what am I getting out of Fallout 76? In a game built around the idea of survival in a post apocalyptic setting, what am I surviving against?

I'm up to level 26. Does anyone have any questions?

It's Fallout, it's fun. All of the hate is totally uncalled for.

Online PvP, PvE, private servers & paid mods does not compute to make it a real Fallout.

Perhaps, it got better with time. I use it for some of my own designs and some I downloaded without problems. Nowadays, even the electrical grid connects itself automatically. Very convenient.

We don't even need to talk about gameplay details to know this isn't a real Fallout. Scrambling around to put together codes and launch nuclear missiles from old silos at areas which you then run towards, to get fatloots off of mutated "bosses" your nuke just created instantaneously (hah) isn't Fallout. Give me a break. Bethesda's blowing up the setting, either because they just don't give a shit, or never understood it to begin with. I suspect a bit of both and also that "real" Fallout, most likely, is pretty much over at this point.

Is there anything that's improved in Fallout 76 that can be carried over to the future Fallout 5? That's all I care about at this point as I doubt I'll ever touch this game.

Please define real Fallout?

Well thanks for the reply at least. I know Fallout 4 isn't popular either.

Many new members seem to have difficulty getting a YouTube video loaded.
Most of the time you are simply using the wrong code, you have probably put the entire link between the YouTube brackets.
You just have to use the code from the YouTube URL in your browser.
Say, for example, you would like to embed a video with the link:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=JFwCCL0Vh6U
Usage (but without the spaces):
[ youtube ]value[/ youtube ]
Given our example this means (but without the spaces):
[ youtube ]JFwCCL0Vh6U[ /youtube ]
So just use the number behind ‘v=‘
