Fallout 76

[Euphoric]

A friend of mine pre-ordered this on pc and got a few beta codes to send out for testing. I loved fallout 3 and new vegas when they came out, playing fallout 4 for awhile I felt let down and found it became tedious with the game having you re do quests and re visit certain areas. However after playing the Fallout 76 beta for the time it was available today I decided I will buy this game. As far as I could tell it was running fine, connection to the server was fine, and gameplay with friends was very entertaining. It's anything you could want from fallout, and with friends. I think there are a couple more beta testing dates on 11/6 and 11/8 but it will not be open as long as it was today. I'm just curious to see if anyone has played the beta, what their thoughts are? or if you are just interested in the game, enjoy the franchise, have seen gameplay footage, or if you are buying? Or maybe you are unsure, or will not be buying the game. Me personally, I thought it was great! no complaints here, it was a little buggy on some points but I'm sure those will be worked out. let me know what you think!

Are you going to play when this is released, Euphoric? I played a bit during the beta tests and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I've read that they're going to add text chat into the game too which is great.

I plan to do so but I may be away the following weekend on its release. That would be a nice feature! either that or push to talk because its hard to communicate with a private party, then people in game, and then if you're a streamer you have a chat too. I had voice disabled during beta just to make my chat with friends easier. Maybe it's not a big deal to some people, but I found it bothersome. Although it does help for player interaction and RP I suppose.
