>the vicious shit cycle

Just what a way to end the year by throwing away a good 60$ on trash just to get banned

I imagine that women studied programing just because it makes money, and got work at Bethesda because of feminist mandated women quotas.

I imagine that, because Fallout 76 is what a person which doesn't play games must imagine that a game is. They ask themselves "why would anybody do such a boring thing. Just shooting at random stuff spawning randomly and doing boring things"... So, just to be paid, they just do the boring thing that they have prejudices against.

... and that's why they do the nagging on "bad boys misbehaving". "Write an essay to demonstrate that you learned that you are a bad boy".

Yeah, cause every publisher allows people to freely mod and tamper with your game that runs on persistently online servers, lol. Looks like Bethesda, again, is the only publisher on the planet that can't do what literally everyone else is doing without being the bad guy. You people do know Bethesda has already stated they will be opening up specialized servers for that, right? If you did, would it make a difference? Something tells me I doubt it.

I lost account of how many games were fixed only by modders. Google why PC is the best gaming platform. You will learn that allowing modding is a major feature of games.

[Teratus]

Practically every Bethesda game would be on that list XD

[isturbo1984]

Google why PC is... ?? Quick hypothetical: Would you think someone is retarded if they were to tell you the same thing, when you already had a PC with several heavily modded games? I would that's why I ask.

Anyway, back on topic... I never devalued the importance of modding on PCs. Even if I didn't own and play on a gaming PC, this has nothing to do with the importance of the modding community. Also, I never asked for you to randomly start preaching about false ideals on fanboyism. You aren't really retarded, are you?

Can't blame them for using graphical mods. The game runs on a 20 year old engine, and looks like shit. Starfield and ES6 will have the same terrible graphics and crash often.

RIP Bethesda. I'm calling it. After TES6 running on the same turd engine, the outcry will be so loud, that they will go bankrupt sometime thereafter. Maybe that is just my bitterness saying that though. Most people seem to finally be not taking this crap anymore whereas they ate it like birthday cake with Fallout 4 though, so maybe I'll be right. 2018 was the year that the straw broke the camel's back and gamers finally as a whole said no to BS of all types.

So much truth!

Leaves to go play that good Fallout game from Obsidian.

Still waiting for my essay from Bethesda about why it hurts to release broken games using outdating mechanics and engines.

How is Bethesda not burnt to the ground from their own heat?

I recently saw a video stating that only players running Cheat Engine are supposed to be banned. There are players saying that just having Cheat Engine installed on their computer, though not running for 76, has resulted in bans, too. Modders that were banned are not required to write the essay and should contact Bethesda at help.bethesda.net. I've looked at some of the comments on the mods I use from Nexus and haven't seen any saying that they have led to bans. I still haven't been back on, but I will update this later on whether I end up banned for mods or am able to play. lol



Here's the link starting at where LegacyKillaHD is talking about the bans. The official response from Beth starts at 5:50.

So they can freely rummage your property in search of your files and documents. How is that ethical or legal.

It definitely presents a problem. It's one thing to detect Cheat Engine software running while the game is connected to the server. It is another to scan a player's computer and it is wrong for them to do that. But they also deleted about 50GB of data from players' computers when the PC Beta opened, too. That was a problem for several of us because the launcher should not have been able to delete files like that. In my case, the data was still there, it just wasn't recognized by their worthless launcher. Even when I renamed the files, I was still forced to download almost the entire game again.
They also haven't taken care of players that exploited (and still exploit) bugs in the game. I haven't been on in weeks so I don't personally know how bad the servers currently are. I've heard that the large amounts of exploited resources some are running around with is putting a strain on them, though. Bethesda needs to fix the bugs and exploits instead of worrying about people with Cheat Engine on their computers. If it is really as bad as some say, then they maybe should just wipe the servers and everyone starts clean.

Also, there are many other uses for cheeatengine, that had nothing to do with multiplayer or cheating, as using it for artistic screenshots, from impossible camera locations, and enabling or disabling shaders and lighting effects.

[pxfbird]

Yep. My bf has it on the computer to mod the Dark Souls games.
