Title: Fallout 76: bet on the metacritic 43 mc (6 reviews) 54 oc (14 reviews)
Post by: Legend on Nov 07, 2018, 04:01 PM
Main Betting Thread (http://vizioneck.com/forum/index.php?topic=6810). Give a high, medium, and low prediction. Please see the main thread for a breakdown of how scoring works.

Fallout 76 for PlayStation 4 Reviews - Metacritic (https://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/fallout-76)

https://opencritic.com/game/6227/fallout-76

IE you expect it to get a 95 so you set that as your middle. Then you set 97 as your high because you don't think the game has a good chance of scoring above that. Then you set 88 as your low because you don't expect the game to score lower than that.

Review embargo ends when the countdown ends. Feel free to post predictions and edit them up till that time.

No, it isn't.

Also seems like it'll be unplayable even on consoles thanks to hackers. Doesn't seem to have a lot of network security features.

A lot of people are saying they should have made a Fallout 5.  
Someone gave it a 0, while saying they didn't buy or play the game.

I think a lot of people like the game but a lot are still upset by it. It sounds like its barely a fallout game at all, its just Rust with a fallout skin, and lots of people aren't happy about it.

I would have expected a lot of reviewers to at least got a basis from the beta, since it was so close to launch not much will change anyway, and then use the launch to update the review and get it out. I'm also quite surprised no reviews have come out yet, the game's been out for well over a day.

Yeah, but it had that huge update day 1!  
Today is probably the first day some reviewers are playing it.

User reviews are wank. Not only have 90% of those reviews not actually bought the game but those that have had only had it a day. Therefore the reviews are wank either way whether they give a 10 or a 0.

On the USA psn store it's got a 4.5/5 rating. Now while i wouldn't take that as gospel at least we know they came front people who bought it.

Also if reviewers were putting up reviews after a day they'd be equally wank. This is the kind of game a credible reviewer will play for 3 to 4 weeks before giving a verdict. A few will but most won't. At least we'll know which are genuine after a month.

The number scores mean nothing at this point but it's hard to ignore all the general issues with this game. It doesn't take 3 to 4 weeks to tell this game will be lucky to score in the 80s.

No but it does to review this type of game properly. The main issues I'm seeing is its not the traditional fallout. Well no shame it's not trying to be. That's fallout 5 that will probably come out in 4 or 5 years. Until then there's fallout 4.

I expected it to be low 70s but wanted to go with the fun score. Did not expect 50s and below to be possible though. Ouch.

The next patch will just install Fallout 4.  And the reviews will go up.

45 is very rough score, lol.

I feel like Opencritic should have another lower mark for games which are super bad. Everything 65 and lower being called weak is crazy, that's more than two thirds of the whole scale!

Speaking of, shouldn't we use opencritic for multiplats?
