Fallout 4 Upcoming Hotfixes and Creation Storage Increase

345 Upvotes

We’re actively investigating issues you’re encountering with the latest Fallout 4 update and Anniversary Edition launch. You should now see faster load times of the Creations menu, game menu, and redemption of Creation Club items. We plan to publish a hot fix early next week to address the following:

  • Hot Fix: Fixing stability problems particularly on XB1/PS4.
  • Hot Fix: Fixing an issue causing creations that rely on DLC to not work.
  • Hot Fix: Fixing an issue causing DLCs to become uninstalled after updating the game on PlayStation.

The hotfix will be followed by two patches. The first patch will be the week of Nov 24th, and the second, in the first half of December. We’ll provide an overview of these patches soon. Thank you for your continued updates and support tickets, it’s helped us to pinpoint issues. We’ll work to address these as quick as we can.

Notably, in the November patch, Xbox Series X/S players will see Creations local storage limit increased substantially. Growable up to 100GB to match your needs. We are also looking into increasing storage on PlayStation.

----- 11/13 update ----

Thank you all for your continued communications with our support team. We've seen a lot of questions about the "Tale of the Beast Hunter" Creation not being accessible on PlayStation. Please know that we are working to bring this Creation to PlayStation at a later date and it would continue to be free for players.

----- 11/17 Hotfix ----

Today’s Fallout 4 hotfix addresses the following:

  • Resolved an issue preventing users from enabling Creations that rely on DLC.
  • Improved stability in the Creation menu, particularly on PS4/XB1.
  • Identified an issue causing DLC to become uninstalled on PlayStation. For players still experiencing this issue, we recommend the following: Please enable any of your Creations after your DLC is completely installed.

We’re continuing to collect everyone’s feedback and encountered issues, so if you’ve submitted a ticket with our support team or provided details to our team in Discord, thank you. It’s been extremely helpful.

For next steps, the team is focused on additional fixes in our first November Patch. We’ll share those details as soon as we can.

-------- Update on May 27th 2026 ------

Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition Mega Thread

510 Upvotes

Bethesda has made a statement about the state of the update

Just wanted to make a thread clearing up some confusion and compiling the known issues of the new update.

Editions

There are three new SKUs for the game, the Anniversary Edition, the Anniversary Upgrade, and the Creations Bundle.

Anniversary Edition includes the base game, all DLCs, and all the new creations content.

The Anniversary Upgrade includes the DLCs and new creations content.

The Creations Bundle includes only the creations. If you already have the base game and the DLCs, this is the only new addition you need to have all the new content.

Known Issues

This will be updated periodically

  • The Creations Menu seems to still be under patience and will kick you out if accessed
  • Quitting to desktop crashes the game
  • Game not launching for some. This may be solved by disabling mods
  • DLC being uninstalled/not installing

I keep catching myself at it and feeling embarrassed. My sister was walking through the room and laughed at me when I was like 'Yeah, well that remains to be seen!'. She called me a nerd and I had to own it.

It's curious to come across these kinds of errors; allow me to introduce you to "The Human Lamp".

Context: While exploring a certain area, I came across some looters and, after eliminating them all, I began looting the corpses. While looting one, I realized I no longer had the miner's helmet with the lantern, but I did have the lantern's light, though not the helmet itself.

Discussion Anyone else loves watching the BoS fight against a strong enemy and later scrap what's left?

101 Upvotes

So, I'm at the point of the game where random vertibirds start appearing and having shootouts with hostiles.

Of course sometimes they win, but then and now they are fighting against a high level hostile like a cybermech tank bot or sentry bot.

I sometimes swoop in, hack the bot to rile it up and vanish again and watch them duke it out.

It usually ends with 2 dead BoS dudes in power armor and a downed Vertibird.

As soon as the fight is done, I run and scrap what's worth scrapping.

I know, I'm a sneaky little wastelander.

Discussion Maxson being a little baby. Spoiler

21 Upvotes

I just completed the base game quest line and was able to keep the Minutemen, Railroad, and Brotherhood somewhat happy by blowing up The Institute. After completing this, talking with some of the NPCs, they seem okay with how I handled The Institute.

Talk with people on the Prydwen, they even seem okay with everything. But when I go to talk with Maxson, he keeps ignoring me. Like.... come on dude. I am still knocking out quest for the BoS, and you still want to sulk. Come on bro... You didn't even have to use Liberty Prime and I probably saved thousands of lives. You should be happy that they are gone, and keep the peace between the Commonwealth and BoS.

How much crap should I take with me to nuka world? (Survival)

9 Upvotes

Somehow never played this dlc before so I’m about to start it for the first time. Playing on survival and I’m a hoarder so I’m always running into space issues. From what I’ve seen you don’t get a settlement until like the end of the story, so it would suck not having a place to dump all my shit but on the other hand I guess I won’t be picking up as much crafting junk?


r/fo4 10h ago

Settlement Had a bit of fun making this. Wanted to bring a bit more worldbuilding to the minutemen effort

I've done 5 playthroughs now. 3 endings with the brotherhood of steel and twice with the minutemen. Each playthrough feels new, like I always discover something new. What faction should I commit next? How many playthroughs have you done?

Tip Fantastic way to farm XP & Caps: Buy Steel Shipments of 250 for 900 in the Nuka Market. Craft 50 Poisoned Caltrops for XP. Sell them for 1600! Repeat and scale up

Keep going in and out of the market to respawn Shelbie’s caps and steel. Just need the chemist 1 perk. Helps to invest in her store and to have the strong back perks and high charisma. Pop some grape mentats for better prices. Figured this out after 900 hours with a level 215 character lol

I just completed Diamond City Blue and opened my pip boy only to discover that it's all distorted. Does anyone know how I might mmbe able to fix this?

Edit: I restarted my PS4 and it just fixed itself. so... problem solved I guess. I would still like to know people's theories about how it happened, though.

Question Any tips on how I can get Amoral Combat to trigger?

Upvotes

I’ll start with saying that I’ve tried standing on that one wire, hugging that corner wall of cola cars, running from the entrance of cola cars out through the back until the music changes to queue I’m out of Nuka World, i’ve tried waiting multiple days in the Commonwealth and taken the monorail back then walked into the entrance of Nuka World, i’ve even waited over 20 days in the Commonwealth and did the same. I tried to get it to trigger for like four hours last night and got nothing. I even tried talking to the Google AI to see if it could help me, but it believes my game is broken, because the bodies aren’t despawning or something.

I could technically load back but the last save I before open season is like a dozen hours prior to my most recent. I really don’t want to do that.

Just asking in case there’s anything else I can do that I haven’t tried. All the information I’ve been able to find pertaining to this is like 9 years old so maybe there’s something new. The infinite ammo Gatlin laser is a core gear item I intended for this playthru’s build. I’m going to be really bummed if I have to choose between playing without it or resetting like a dozen hours. I appreciate any help.
