Hey all! Please visit this thread for more up-to-date information: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/fallout_4_nextgen_update_is_coming_but_will_likely_be_slightly_delayed.

Right now, I can't unfortunately give you anything concrete.

The update proved to be more difficult than expected but we're determined to make it happen. We're actively working with Bethesda to bring it here. No ETA to give you though :/

jeepersGames: I, for one am new to PC gaming and just want to play the base version with the latest update. I have gotten tired of waiting and requested a refund and disappointed to say that i have gotten no response.
Exactly the same for me...

I also contacted the GOG support some time ago, but have still not received a reply...

That's not really a good customer service...

As I see too busy holding a stick up their asses because of June pride.Fallout 4 updates because GOG as the only platform for 2 months doesn't move its ass to make this NEXT gen come in. Fucking slackers.

No matter what you think of the NextGen patch, what can GOG do if Bethesda has other priorities? You should be more angry at Bethesda and less at GOG. What is GOG supposed to release if Bethesda simply can't finish the patch for the GOG version? The NextGen patch may have been released on other platforms, but it can't be adopted 1:1, it has to be adapted by Bethesda first (DRM-free and other changes for this version).

Agree with Bibbsi. Though I think GOG can be moaned at for some games' problems, I just don't understand the bile from some gamers in this instance. The main issue is because GOG's version of FO4 is DRM-free. And the so-called "next-gen" update, at least for PC players, is little more than some iffy CC DRM-heavy content (along with a mini-quest to force-fit them into the game). Other than that Beth added some fresh bugs and slightly restructured the game archives (for no real gain other than to completely break many existing mods). Thus Beth essentially broke most PC gamer's mod-lists just to make a version (i.e. sell a few more copies) more compatible for other platforms. And then Beth had the bare faced cheek to deliberately misname it "Next Gen". For it most definitely is not that. It should be called "CCC Gen" (Crap Community Club Gen).

So blame Beth for the delays and be glad GOG's version hasn't updated to it. As for mods, FO4 came out 9 years ago and so there's already thousands of great mods. And remember, this isn't at all like Skyrim which was originally built on an older 32bit engine (and thus many happy to see the 64bit Skyrim SE) - for FO4 was already 64bit anyway.

I don't care about excuses, if they can't give an update then let them return the money and take the stick out of their rear end because of their dubious pride on Twitter.
Seeing such ineptitude makes me reluctant to buy anything here, and as for next gen I'll judge for myself and no one will give me crap.

Still waiting for a release date of the update at least.

Rezaprtm55: I don't know what you people are smoking, but believe me it's better to NOT have the next-gen update. There's so many things wrong with it and if you mod the game then you'll have days and days of maintenance nightmare. I for one am happy the next-gen update is not rolling out soon and would rather it didn't all together. Very little gain for very massive loses.

Mrwednesday75: If It was possible for me to care less about modding, I would. I find modding useless and I stay as far away from it as I can. So for me, I'll just take the update and play the game. Just my little thought there.
Modding aside, I don't see the appeal for the next-gen update at all. What are you hoping to get? Every review of the update either only shown mainly it being used on the next-gen consoles and being terrible or it being on PC, having no significant changes whatsoever, doesn't even address many of the bugs that's been plaguing the game for 9 years heck it adds more bugs.

If they are such [offensive word removed] and can't do any updating here then let them return the cash. If it was free I could just download it from the net and not give a fuck about those GOG donkeys.

I just made myself a repack and the game runs very nicely. Now GOG can kiss my ass.
If I had known there would be no updates, I would have returned the game within 30 days of purchase, I felt cheated and will never buy anything here again.

DM.09: Will they bring creation kit with the update? Tbh, I'm looking forward to the CK more than this update.
I really hope they do!

I ALWAYS blame Bethesda in cases like this.
