    Bethesdas Netcode was absolute ass. Lag made things like VATS not even work half the time.

    One positive thing about Bethesda getting bought up by MS; maybe, just maybe MS will help Bethesda get their shit together on that front, and a few others.

      There are so many aspects of Bethesda games that would be changed for the better if they took inspiration from their stablemates, like Arkane or iD. I’m still waiting, though. Nor am I holding my breath.

        Just a lil ‘hey brudda, this is the first time we’ve done an online joint like this here fo76, can we get a lil help getting the netcode solid so everything goes smoothly?’ would have sufficed.

          Exactly. Although if my own experience is any indication, they probably did, realized they would have to not use a shitty engine in the first place, then just gave up and tried with what they had.
