“Will it finally stop crashing? Since the update, and about 20 hours or so, I am at 7 crashes now. The last one I was simply building a farm for a settlement and it crashed while planting corn. The game feels so unstable (still),”said one X user.
After Amazon Prime Video released its Fallout series, the game received a large influx of players, which prompted Bethesda to push for a performance update. Despite what was promised in the patch notes, the changes made little positive change to the overall game.
Players began postingside-by-side imagesof what the game looked like before and after the update, noting that there was barely a difference between the Quality and Performance modes and even less of a difference between what the older-gen build used to look like.
This wasn’t the only issue, though. One of the biggest complaints about the Fallout 4 update was that it broke many players’ games. The update almost completely brokeFallout 4 mods, causing many players’ games to crash.

“Oh great, I was hoping you’d break all my mods again,”said another X userafter Bethesda’s announced the new update.
It appears that Bethesda is aware of the problem at hand, which means there may still be hope for Fallout 4’s current state.
