Difference between revisions of "Fallout 76"
From PCGamingWiki, the wiki about fixing PC games
(→Availability: no need to put the online requirement in every row, as this is already covered by the notes below and above the table; {{cn}} for the Tricentennial Edition on Steam - the game is already available to purchase, no signs of it) |
(→Essential improvements: removed "quick configuration" mod from essential improvements section. The mod has not been maintained as of July 2023 according to its developer on Nexus Mods, and comments suggest using it can lead to in-game issues.) |
