Bethesda recently announced that it will release a new update for "Fallout 4", which aims to fix a number of technical issues and prepare for expanding the console version's module storage space.However, after experiencing game crashes and large-scale module failures caused by the previous "Anniversary Update", the player community generally expressed concerns about this move and strongly called on the official to provide a "downgrade" channel to protect module compatibility.

According to the official announcement, this update was originally scheduled to be launched in November, but has been postponed.The patch will focus on solving DLC ​​installation failures, occasional game crashes, and optimizing the performance of the "Creation Center" menu on all platforms.In addition, some bugs that affect the game experience, such as soft locks when entering and exiting menus, and infinite reads that may occur when loading saves with "Creation" content, will also be fixed.

As compensation for previous issues, Bethesda will make a set of "Creation" content free to all players.The first content will be launched later this week and will include a new exploration mission: players will delve into an underground facility and solve puzzles to obtain a brand new viper rifle.

Despite the official apology, the player community is upset about yet another update that could break mod compatibility.In the comment area of ​​the official announcement, a large number of players expressed their dissatisfaction.

One player's comment highlights the core contradiction: "The modding community is the cornerstone of your game's longevity. Instead of respecting the modders who invest a lot of time out of passion, you seem to be mocking them."

Another common sentiment is hope that officials will provide a simple technical solution.Another player commented: "Just set up a public branch on Steam, allowing us to choose whether to stay in the old version, so we don't have to worry about updates breaking the mod. This can be done in the Steamworks developer backend in just a few minutes." This proposal has received support from a large number of players.

Currently, Bethesda has not yet responded on whether it will adopt this suggestion.Until the official comes up with a more reliable plan, "Fallout 4" players may have to continue to make a difficult choice between "experience new content" and "maintain a stable mod environment."
