Oh my :story: I can't stop laughing.
Serves them well for supporting this corporative bullshit of a game, better grind that stuff back numales.
If you really think about it the hackers did them a favour, they either give up and search a real game to play or they get a lot more timeplay out of the game now that they have to start from scratch

Brendaniel has said that he poured so many hours into Fallout 76, and he never had any fun. The people that still play this game have an addiction.
When he collabed with Kreal, you can see that he's fucking level 115

I honestly expected them to have ironed out the most egregious bugs when they announced the super-duper deluxe membership money scam, but I guess this just goes to show how :optimistic: even that was.

The only other vidya clusterfuck I can recall that even comes close to this is Rome 2: Total War, which reminds me: it took more than five fucking years of solid patching for that to become even remotely playable, and that was a mostly single-player game made by a semi-competent dev.

Bethesda's greed and incompetence coupled with a core playerbase of masochistic whales has to potential to generate an even more sustained and lengthy period of fuck-ups, and 76 has only just passed the one year mark. :stress:

How many players does this POS still have? It can't be more than a 1000 tops.
 
The hackers are now claiming they've devised methods to invade private servers and permanently kill players.

How is it even possible to fuck up this bad? Why is it even POSSIBLE to flag a player as an NPC, in a game with no NPC’s?

IIRC there are NPCs, just they're robots to receive fetch quest mcguffins. The real answer is that this game was written in a very short time using a 20 year old single player RPG engine and they did the bare minimum amount of work to make it functional... Sort of.

Is the engine really 20 years old?
