Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. Extended

A tweet from Bethesda Game Studios announces the Fallout 76 beta, or BETA rather, is being extended due to some issues players have encountered. Word is a glitch in the game launcher required users to re-download the entire 47 GB client. DSOGaming digs into other problems with the beta, noting that 16:10 and 21:9 aspect ratios are not supported, and that game speed is tied to framerate, leading to undesirable results when framerates are unlocked, but there's no word on such issues. Here's the revised beta schedule:

We know some users have been forced to redownload the #Fallout76 B.E.T.A. and not everyone will be able to enjoy the game tonight. To make good, we’ll be extending the B.E.T.A. for everyone on Thursday, November 1, 2pm to 11pm ET.

Thanks for your patience. #ExtendtheBeta

I wish Bethesda would stop tying things to the framerate. It's really annoying. It couldn't be that difficult to tweak their engine so that it works properly with an unlocked framerate. Is this still going to be a thing when ESVI comes out in 2022 or whenever? Ugh...

Unfortunately, it's an inherent limitation/flaw in their ancient POS engine. Modifying that would take a significant mount of work/time/money and more or less isn't possible without rewriting a large portion of the base engine.

Which is what they really need to do. Scrap the engine entirely and write or lease a new one. Come on Bethesda, it's long past time.

I'm interested in TES6 and Starfield, but if they are still using this junk, they won't be getting my money.
