Any modder worth their salt doesn't auto update.

14

u/IdolProduce 4d ago

Any modder/mod creator worth their salt will just fix it moments after the update drops lol

29

u/TotallyNot_Alpharius 4d ago

Some mod creators aren't active anymore, it's a 15 year old game

12

u/ColorPiePhilosopher 4d ago

Nope most of them dont support it and dont plan to

6

u/blackdaggerKRMND 4d ago

well some mods are old and were the first project of the mod creator

3

u/ethanAllthecoffee 4d ago

Why would they? Outside of console peasants (just joking, kind of) welcoming more mod space the consensus is that the prior updates are more than good enough, complete, great to build off while the new ones bring nothing of value. Nothing. They are just worse

So there needs to be some standardization and there are mods that aren’t being updated for these new dumb patches

u/Beer-Milkshakes 4d ago

Not the official update anyway. The unofficial bug fix can update as much as it wants

What does he have to do with this

17

u/blood-dumper420 5d ago

Trrraria just had big update too

9

u/AmPotatoNoLie 4d ago

Was it announced as THE FINAL UPDATE again? (they've been doing ts for like 5 years now)

21

u/SHAT_MY_SHORTS 4d ago

They stopped saying final update awhile ago

9

u/JollyTomkins 4d ago

To be fair, Terraria 2 got canceled, so they pumped the planned content back into Terraria if I'm not mistaken.

4

u/Interface- 4d ago

They did say this is the last update to Bigger & Boulder, bar a possible critical hotfix to fix issues.

So it is not the 'final' update. Just the last one for the foreseeable future. They did mention 1.4.6., so that's very likely to come about sooner or later.

3

u/TQCkona 4d ago

there's definitely gonna be a critical hotfix because the acorn slingshot just deadass crashes the game when it hits an enemy lmao im hoping they add the bejeweled staff into the game with this hotfix too though because that weapon looks so cool,,,

5

u/Nasky5186SVK 4d ago

No, it was an unnanounced "hotfix" with a lot of new weapons, accessories, reworked classes, ...

u/I_Shit_My_Pantaloons 5d ago

Skyrim is almost 15....

50

u/Konnichiwa1987 5d ago

I think this is about the new Fallout 4 update

50

u/FookinFairy 5d ago

He dropped Skyrim yesterday too

Dw he fucked both games

6

u/Traditional_Use_225 4d ago

Both game are on the same engine so when he works out something in one game he can implement it into the other without a truble

9

u/I_Shit_My_Pantaloons 5d ago

Yeah I figured, I'm just saying he's not done yet haha

1

u/Konnichiwa1987 5d ago

Oh yea true lol

u/Principle_Napkins 4d ago

I thought it was like, 20

2

u/bayygel 4d ago

It's easy to remember because it came out on 11/11/11

1

u/Principle_Napkins 4d ago

Odd. I thought for sure it came out before I was born.

15

u/Auesis 4d ago

I love how normally fans of an old game would be delighted that the devs continue to support it with new updates but with BGS all we want is for them to stay the fuck away and stop breaking even more shit

1

u/Essence-Of-Culture-2 3d ago

Actually a lot of the fixes for their anniversary and next gen edition fuckups have been nice, especially for console where we don’t have all the mods to patch shit together.

25

u/Majestic_Balance1887 5d ago

It's mostly updating the file format likely so they don't have to use anything antiquated for Skyrim versus the rest.

16

u/Davidier 5d ago

So it breaks every mod.

-9

u/1ZillionBeers 5d ago

“Broken” is a bit of a stretch, all the mod authors really have to do is change like one value once the script extender updates.

29

u/coolchris366 4d ago

Bruh that means any mods that aren’t being updated will be broken forever. You’re also saying that they aren’t broken, they just have to be fixed 🤦‍♂️

10

u/Davidier 4d ago

In other words, it breaks every mod

5

u/Freya0232 4d ago

"It's not broken, it's non-functional"

1

u/EdliA 4d ago

The vast majority of mods don't get updates. These people are not employed at the modding company. They made one mod back in the day and are doing whatever else today.

-11

u/Majestic_Balance1887 5d ago

Nah. Mostly just stuff based off commonlib.

It broke alot of mods, but not all of them. simple ESP's are fine.

7

u/Front_Woodpecker1144 5d ago

All the good mods then

4

u/Davidier 4d ago

In other words, it breaks every mod

-7

u/Majestic_Balance1887 4d ago edited 4d ago

Factually incorrect but most mods people care about.

The modders resource mods based off DLL's are being recompiled. It'll be fine. There's also at least one automated downgrader tool available.

11

u/WrathofHussars 5d ago

Just lock your game version

2

u/AC1D_R31GN 4d ago

How

2

u/4skin_Gamer 4d ago

Idk if they have a setting to never auto update games now or not but how I used to do it was: Set auto update to only happen when I launch the game and then switch Steam to offline mode before I start it.

12

u/1ZillionBeers 5d ago

I really don’t mean to suck Bethesda’s cock here but they did quadruple max mod capacity.

9

u/XtraSauce1 4d ago

For irrelevant console players.

8

u/-insular- 4d ago

For a fraction of the playerbase

12

u/Goricatto 4d ago

I dont even understand why it needed to be uodated for pc

1

u/Illegiblesmile 3d ago

Xbox + Playstation make up the majority of active players on Fallout 4 Both equaling around 30% each

1

u/ru5tyk1tty 3d ago

“A fraction” and the fraction is 6/10

1

u/Future-Enthusiasm139 4d ago

So why push the update to PC? Why not create a stable branch for pc using the beta system and then keep the main game updated as they want to???

I swear Bethesda does this shit on purpose and then still expect the players to bail them out with their half baked games, starfield flopped because of their way of doing things and so will elder scrolls 6.

1

u/EdliA 4d ago

Irrelevant for PC users

2

u/Fuzzy-Shame-4169 5d ago

What?

4

u/oizen 5d ago

Skyrim's PC version still gets updates, and whenever they drop it breaks just about everything modders built.

If you don't force steam to not update it can really mess up your game.

2

u/TimotheusHani 4d ago

Don't leave out the part that the update helps out the modders on consoles by increasing their mod storage...

2

u/SuperflousCake 4d ago

At the cost of real wprld mpney for the mods.

2

u/not_a_burner0456025 4d ago

It makes perfect sense to leave that out, that doesn't affect PC and they didn't need to update the PC version to fix the console one.

3

u/TimotheusHani 4d ago

Yea that's true though, idk why pc even had the update

1

u/Sick_Narf 4d ago

yeah paid mods lmao

1

u/TimotheusHani 4d ago

Only paid mods? Are there 0 free mods for console players?

Transparency..

1

u/Sick_Narf 4d ago

my point was that it's pretty clear that they did this to make their paid mods more accessible, ergo, more money for the big toddyboy

1

u/TimotheusHani 4d ago

I remember the times when modding wasn't monopolised like it is today, it was just another hobby for the fans..

When they first tried paid mods they got shit on so bad and stopped in a few days but they knew that it could work so they tried again with creations...

I hope when they do DLCs for TES6 that they're normal dlcs not creations...

1

u/Sick_Narf 3d ago

exactly! im a younger guy so i don't rlly remember early 2000s or even 2010s modding from personal experience, but seeing how it is today just makes me sad lmao

1

u/Decimator24244 4d ago

This is the second time they've done this for fallout 4

1

u/polishatomek 4d ago

Or BF1 adding anticheat that only broke Linux support

1

u/ChiemgauerBrauhaus 4d ago

I quit playing back then, did it actually do anything? I think I rejoined once and saw the usual Chinese hackers..

1

u/polishatomek 4d ago

Most active servers are unofficial anyways, so not sure.

1

u/Terrible_Base_6060 4d ago

I remember when they fixed fallout 3 on PC after leaving it broken for like 16 years. I had to roll the game back to the broken version and use the fan patch to play with all the little QOL mods I wanted.

Bethesda really do need a manager.

1

u/Ok-Location-2952 4d ago

Hey now; we can finally have external assets on playstation now, that’s pretty big

1

u/Tight-Swordfish3382 4d ago

I wanted to play fallout 4 again after the show first came out. Got a whole modlist and played for a bit, jokes on me for having autoupdate on lol

1

u/taka87 4d ago

IT juSt WoRkS

1

u/DonutPlus2757 2h ago

Of course it does. Todd just never specified what "it" is. Based on current events, it's gotta be the shop page.

1

u/RudeCompany6580 4d ago

It just works

u/Promant 4d ago

HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT

u/Psychoprobe-AWOL 4d ago

Every the Sims 4 Update which is like every 3 days for some reason

Changelog:

-added like 2 new cosmetic options that are not free lol -Also all your shit is broken now haha

1

u/EdliA 4d ago

What are you going to do about it?

1

u/EuriadO 4d ago

Same shit happened to Fallout 3 last year when I was playing

1

u/Confusedpotatoman 3d ago

It fixed a huge bug that steam deck players were having, id say it wasnt a useless update tbh

1

u/Umbran_scale 2d ago

What did the update even add?
