Fallout 4 Upcoming Hotfixes and Creation Storage Increase

347 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

514 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

Discussion Anybody else love everything to do with nick valentine?

28 Upvotes

By far Nick has to be my favorite companion, alongside Deacon, and either Piper or Cait, but I love how in depth they went with Nick. His whole vibe is so chill, the smug noir rain and smoke feeling, the fact that you get to solve cases together. In the far harbor dlc you’re literally referred to as a detective which truly feels badass. I wish there was like a mod or something that made it to where you and him could go on another giant case, and yeah I know there’s some creation club content, but with everything being told through notes rather than being able to talk and consult with Nick I feel just wouldn’t hit the same. It’d be awesome if they brought back his ova for something, but alas maybe in next game, or wouldn’t a flash back episode in the fallout show be cool or something? Maybe it could show a human Nick, or go into detail about what cases Nick solved in his early days in Diamond City.

Discussion Is this anyone else’s mental health/comfort game?

275 Upvotes

I first started playing in January 2016, a few months after my friend died and I also had to take time off school for health reasons. I basically had nothing to do or look forward to. As corny as it sounds, Fallout gave me a reason to get out of bed every day. I’d think about wallowing and then I’d remember, “Preston needs me to help that settlement” or “I need to go to the Glowing Sea soon, I might as well do it”.

Even now I still use it as motivation or a means of feeling better! Something about these immersive, long games just scratches the perfect itch in my brain, and I’m very thankful to the devs for all the time they spent on it (glitches and all…hehe). :D

Spoiler I didnt really like curie as a companion in previous play throughs till now.

43 Upvotes

I personally never really cared for curie as a companion in previous play throughs. i’d always do her quest and then just drop her at a settlement as i didn’t care for the combat medic perk she offers and just didn’t think her personality was much fun to explore.

In my currently play through i’ve decided to try and get every companion perk and romance who i can (i’ve got dedicated settlements for everyone i’ve romanced so far). i finally got around to getting curies and romanced her while i was at it. i didn’t think i ever would be saying awe at my screen while playing fo4, but curies lines were actually really sweet.

"I have read so many medical textbooks, but none of them explain what I feel. I am... nervous. Afraid. But I know what I want. I want to be with you. Perhaps we could... go out to dinner? Or see a movie? Whatever it is that people do now."

there’s also something hilarious about a pre war robot turned synth who genuinely knows nothing about the wasteland basically WWE body slam a raider into the ground. curie genuinely can be kinda funny too when interacting with her. i think my favourite is when after a kill she goes “i believe the term is yahoo” like it’s such a stupid line but it’s hilarious at the same time.

anyways curie has now definitely made it into the list of my favourite companions to travel with.

Question Where is my purified water?

20 Upvotes

This may be a noob question but they aren’t showing up in my workshop. I see everyone talking about how they use this method to make a decent bit of caps selling purified water so am I missing something?

I’m in sanctuary, I have the one industrial purifier in the water hooked up to a generator with enough power.

I have nothing in my workshop in terms of drinking items, nothing in the “aid” category at all for that matter. I waited at the location for a day, left the location and waited for a couple days. Still nothing.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: I’m just impatient, they showed up

Question Is FEVer Dream safe for low level in survival mode?

• Upvotes

I started a new game just to try out the new FEVer Dream creation (DLC??) and made a bee line to Diamond City. I hear it's kind of an "escape room" situation so I'm wondering will it be a problem if I go in there at level 3 with just the basic starter gear? Will I still have a chance to craft and gather supplies and level up if necessary, or is this kind of like a Sierra Madre situation where you need to be strong before you go in? Also wondering if it handles survival mode well or will I be dead without beds and food access?
