The latest update for Fallout 4 has brought some exciting additions for players. PC players can enjoy new features, including ultra-widescreen support, bug fixes, and compatibility with the Steam Deck. Additionally, free Creation Club items like the Enclave Remnants questline have been included.
The current-gen update is free for existing Fallout 4 owners. However, players using older hardware will also receive a patch with stability improvements and quest fixes, although it may not include all the features of the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions. Despite the positive changes, there have been reports of lingering issues.
Some players have experienced problems such as the notorious lip-syncing issue, where NPCs’ dialogue plays faster than their lip movements, leading to context being skipped. Other players have encountered crashes, including the “Buffout4” error which has plagued the game since launch. Given these reports, it may be wise for players to wait for mod updates before diving into the updated version.
Fallout 4 offers a wealth of new features to the series, such as base building, an enhanced armor system, and an expansive open world.
