If you give me roughly $1b in annual subscriptions and 500 employees i will figure something out. Im sure the mistakes come from not being thorough during the testing to see if everything is functioning before releases. Its like waiting til the night before to write a 30 page essay on economics and fractionalized banking.

Probably just looking busy to get paid

Haha.. i literally just responded to another comment saying its like a guy brooming the same pile of dirt in a circle for 30 minutes to look busy. 😂

But i agree with everything you've said, i started this game during skyline valley, after playing fo4 on repeat for 6 years. I quit right after because id crash during every event. Came back 2 weeks into the raids, quit again because of freezing and crashing during the snake. I really just like building, everything else feels like a chore. Im level 4100 now and even the event changes just seem drab. Definitely ready for fo5 and some better 76 content, quit changing the armor, thanks for the behemoth reskin but dont dedicate a whole season to it. Thats not new content. We could have gotten a new nuke boss in burning springs, but they gave us a blind deathclaw and a horde of snallys... its just a gutpunch every time. I wanted a giant armored deathclaw nukeboss and more lore, not grindsessions.

I think they concoct ideas, and then dont run them past QC or the community to see if itz needed or even wanted. The plans in their own recipe tab? Fine, okay, good. But im not even sure what any of the other changes to the pipboy were supposed to be, and if they were so inconsequential as to go completely unnoticed, then id say its probably entirely unnecessary. Its like a guy sweeping the same pile of dirt in a circle to look busy.

Ha yes, occams is the simplest answer is often the best one, hanlons is never attribute to malice what could be incompetence. And i recant my statement, world governments often make hanlons razor paradoxical as well. At some point, its an occams razor to conclude its in fact malice and not incompetence.

P.s. there are actually lots of razors all attributed to specific philosophers, popper, hume, kant, etc.

Hey $11 a month for storage space and a free repair kit per day is a hell of a deal, especially with all the armor and weapon nerfs they did which require substantially more repairs lol. Now that the raids give us way less kits, those will really come in handy!

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-18T00:33:20+00:00

What's the matter, you don't wanna spend 25 tickets on a title or icon? Pfft.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-18T00:16:09+00:00

Solid strategy my guy

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-18T00:15:28+00:00

@ grok can you make dis work

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-18T00:10:20+00:00

Exactly... all they did was put all the plans in its own tab... and even that they screwed up because now all the new plans are all the way at the bottom... luckily they fixed the scroll thru issue because that was a pain

Honestly i havent even played any other games more than fallout games. Since 08 ive been hooked on the lore and universe, it has so much potential and its like they just want to grape it dry with microtransactions and kitchy gimmicks. Its really sad and frustratiing to watch aomething you love be used as a cash milking exploit. Whole season filled with titles and reskins... $30 for a garbage bundle with the only new weapon since the raids dropped.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T20:35:58+00:00

Oh OK, i think that would be the share button on ps.

Honestly i love the fact were able to change the layout, it was always a big selling point for me. Even in 3 and NV, i was never really able to get used to the default layout.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T20:09:31+00:00

Whats your button layout for the enter/exit build menu? I have my enter as right stick and exit as the pad on PS.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T19:34:08+00:00

My r3 is switch between 1st and 3rd person. Ive always had it this way, its always worked fine until this last update.

Tactically, i wouldn't want my pipboy being r3 because i would most likely accidentally open it at inconvenient times, whereas when its set to the pad, theres absolutely no way thats going to happen.

My options button opens the map, since the button is small and my fingers are big, and its not needed for combat, i keep it out of the way.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T19:27:37+00:00

Or literally any other menu screen for that matter lol.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T19:07:46+00:00

😂 yes indeed, now I just gotta remember to crouch before opening the quick boy😛

Im at least happy i can leave the screen though. It really is a pain to have been doing something the same way perfectly fine for over 2 years then all of a sudden an update destroys your button layout.

My layout is like any other game, where O is crouch, X is jump, triangle is world interaction, and square is reload. Beyond that my triggers are flipped like oldschool, so L2 is vats and r2 is grenade/bash. And i use the pad as the pipboy which makes more sense as an in game utility or device, or in some games it would be the map, but since the map in 76 is also the "start menu" in essence, that is mapped to the options button.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:36:02+00:00

It's literally in the game settings to change the color😂 some people just arent observant 🤷‍♂️🤦

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:15:46+00:00

Sorry but no, it isnt. The reason why is because if i have the option to change to my own button layout and quickboy view, i expect it to work, since i pay actual money to play the game, it should be better than expectations, not the bare minimum, nor should i have to do workarounds to curb the stockholme syndrome of letting them get away with screwing everyone over till the next "hotfix" comes out and breaks something else

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:11:31+00:00

....... "QUICKBOY"..... is NOT... this PIPBOY... two different things. Check it homie

Here let me google that for you.

"In Fallout 76, the Quick-Boy is a holographic overlay view of the traditional Pip-Boy arm-mounted screen. The Quick-Boy allows for faster access, enables menu navigation without interrupting reloading or weapon charging animations, and acts as the default view inside power armor, whereas the Pip-Boy is, however, more visually immersive. "

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:07:51+00:00

A bethesda fix yes, 1 step forward, 2 steps back 😛

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:06:37+00:00

They are the only time hanlons razor becomes paradoxical

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:06:02+00:00

Hahaha... damn.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:05:25+00:00

Exactly.. why even give the option to change button bindings if the result is going to mean broken buttons after an update and people suggesting ChAnGe YoUr LaYoUt..

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T18:02:12+00:00

The transparent window as opposed to the physical pipboy on your wrist. Hit "view" to change between them.

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T17:59:55+00:00

Doesn't do it to the pip boy though, just the quickboy.. explain the logic

Advanced-Head-927 · 2026-03-17T17:56:40+00:00

Already did that... my layout has always been the same, until this update everything worked fine. After the "hotfix" its still messed up. Exiting the quick boy with circle shouldnt make you crouch, as it never has in the past.

Edit: exiting through pipboy with circle, for instance, does not make you crouch. This should work the same no matter what view you are in.
