The long-awaited next-gen upgrade for Fallout 4 landed on April 25, bringing many noteworthy changes. PC, PS5, and Xbox Series players will want to use the brand-new Performance and Quality modes. Not everything\u2019s going smoothly with the game\u2019s latest release, though. Players have reported broken mods, poorly implemented ultrawide, and framerate-related shortcomings. PC players, in particular, have encountered issues when loading previous modded saves. Broken mods represent another problem introduced in the new update. As a result, Reddit users have advised fellow players to redownload all Creation Club content, lest further troubles arise. Xbox players claim they\u2019ve faced similar hiccups, with one person writing on Twitter: \u201cMods are clearly broken on Xbox.\u201d Mod creators will need to issue updates to address the matter. YouTuber Tyler McVicker and several others pointed out that the addition of ultrawide support stretches the UI too far, so users should revert to fan-made patches for a solution. This hardly constitutes the end of Fallout 4\u2019s next-gen update troubles. For one, anyone trying to play the RPG at over 60fps will still encounter problems, given that this version of the Creation Engine continues to lag behind. Meanwhile, others have stated that playing on the OLED Steam Deck does not guarantee any of the update\u2019s promised FPS boosts. One such player on Twitter lamented, \u201cFallout 4 still runs at half the frame rate on the OLED Steam Deck even after the verified update lol.\u201d Hopefully, modders can begin updating their mods at the earliest convenience to sort out some of these troubles. Bethesda has yet to issue a comment on when fixes will go live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frustrated Fallout 4 players waited years for next-gen update and it\u2019s broken Bethesda SoftworksFallout 4\u2019s next-gen update has finally arrived roughly two years after its announcement, but Bethesda didn\u2019t release it in the best state.
