Fixes

  • General memory and stability improvements
  • Performance improvements inside the Corvega Assembly Plant
  • Optimizations to skinned decal rendering
  • Fixed issue with player becoming stuck in terminals
  • Fixed issue where equipped weapons become locked after completing Reunions
  • Fixed issue with "When Freedom Calls" where the quest would not complete
  • During "Confidence Man" fixed issue where player's health would continuously regenerate
  • Fixed crash related to jumping into water and reloading saved games
  • Fixed issue where Launcher would not save God Rays Quality setting properly (PC)

Bethesda stated previously it plans to beta test patches on PC before officially releasing them widely.

Our Take
Patches for Fallout 4 are a good thing. I personally haven't run into many problems (fingers crossed), but I know lots who have. It wouldn't be a Bethesda game without a huge collection of gifs showing off weird bugs taking over the internet in the following months.
