While "Fallout 76" is retaining the name of the franchise – barring the number, of course – this next installment seems to be anything but "Fallout." There have been a lot of complaints from hardcore fans of the franchise since game director Todd Howard presented it during BE3.
One of the major reasons that deter players from buying and playing the game is the presence of PvP in "Fallout 76," Euro Gamer reported. It’s important to understand that fans of the franchise have been enamored by the game because it lets them explore and discover places, both dangerous and engrossing, all on their own.
While "Fallout 76" does allow players to explore the new area, there is the danger of running with other players who might be trolls or griefers. These gamers are the kind that would kill others just for the fun of it, which can completely ruin game immersion.
There’s also the fact that the game will only be available online and there will be no offline mode whatsoever for "Fallout 76." This major divergence will surely perturb some, if not most, of the players who want to spend their time exploring on their own without worrying about players who might ruin their journey.
Moreover, Todd Howard said that there will no NPC in "Fallout 76" and that quests will be available through terminals and holo tapes found across the game. Howard said that they wanted players to interact with real people in the game, which frustrates those who wish to be left to their own devices.
Having said all of these, there are some deterrents that Howard and his team put in place to discourage trolls and griefers from ruining the experience of others. One of these is a bounty system which racks up the more a player attacks other players in "Fallout 76". However, this sort of deterrent has been proven time and again to be insufficient as trolls would only see this as a challenge to be an even bigger headache for others.
In any case, the beta version – or B.E.T.A. as it’s called – will be available in October while the real launch will be on Nov. 14. For those who want to be a part of the beta launch, the only method confirmed so far is by pre-ordering "Fallout 76" – a practice that is currently receiving bad reviews from gamers given how EA and other game developers handled it in the past. Of course, those who are still interested but will not be pre-ordering can simply watch streamers who will test out what exactly "Fallout 76" has to offer during the beta launching.
