Fallout 76 is off to a very rocky start. The latest entry in the series released last week on PC and consoles with a lot of issues, many of them getting fixed soon, and it seems like players aren't willing to give a pass to Bethesda for releasing the game in such state.
The latest sales data for the UK for the past week is in, confirming that Fallout 76 sold considerably less than Fallout 4 at launch, despite the game debuting on the third spot of the weekly all formats charts. The online entry in the series sold 82.4% less than Fallout 4 at launch. Only retail sales are tracked, but it's unlikely that things are much different counting digital sales.
A new Fallout 76 patch is releasing later today, introducing a variety of improvements. The PC version of the game is also getting some new features and graphics settings.
Stash Limit Increase – We hear you loud and clear. We will be increasing the stash limit in the coming weeks. The current limit is there for technical reasons, to cap the number of items the game is tracking in the world, including every container and stash. We believe we have some ideas in both the short- and long-term that will address the size without risking stability, but this is one we need to take our time on to make sure it is done right.
Push to Talk for PC – After listening to all of your concerns, we have made progress on getting this into the game and it will also be included in an update in the next few weeks.
Ultrawide Support for PC – 21:9 support will be coming soon. We have seen it in testing and it looks awesome.
FOV Slider for PC – We know this is popular request for our PC players— look for an FOV slider soon.
Fallout 76 is now available in all regions on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
