Fallout 4 Update Fixes Explosive Piggy Bank Glitch, VATS Problems Remain

May 14, 2024 11:37 AM

Fallout 4's recent next-gen update has brought a mix of bug fixes and ongoing problems for the players. While the update fixed some hilarious glitches, like explosive piggy banks turning into giant red signs, it seems to have left some issues with the VATS system unresolved. Some gamers are experiencing targeting bugs allowing them to shoot enemies through walls. Despite this, the update has been well-received in terms of improved graphics and performance, particularly on the Xbox Series X/S and PS5. This next-gen improvement has had the unfortunate side effect of delaying the highly-anticipated Fallout: London mod. However, modders and fans remain hopeful for its eventual release.

What new weapons are included in the Fallout 4 next-gen update?

The update added new makeshift weapons like the Piggy Bank Fat Man and Piggy Bank mines, which are considered very powerful additions to a player's arsenal.

Fallout 4 has been a significant title in Bethesda's lineup since its release in November 2015. The game is known for its open-world post-apocalyptic setting, deep role-playing mechanics, and robust modding community. The next-gen update aims to enhance the game for the latest console hardware, offering improvements in graphics and framerate. Fallout 4's enduring popularity is largely due to its extensive mod support which allows players to customize and expand their gaming experience significantly. The forthcoming mod, Fallout: London, is an ambitious expansion created by the community that promises to introduce a brand new setting and narrative to the game's universe.
