Now, a gamer called squeasy-orange shared how the recentFallout 4update ruined a collection of unique picture frames they had carefully gathered over time. The collection included 16 different frames featuring images of people, pets, and landscapes. After the update, however, all of these unique frames were converted to blank ones. According to squeasy-orange, the whole collection was fairly hard to acquire. If these items were put into the inventory, they would become blank, so the gamer had to manually carry them to their settlement, which was quite a time-consuming task.

Apart from this issue, the next-gen update introduced a few bugs toFallout 4. A few days ago, players discovered that some of the recently introducedguns were shooting giant exclamation points inFallout 4due to their textures not loading properly, for example.

TheFallout 4community seems to be somewhat divided about the latest update, with many people irritated that it has brought so many issues. Apart from these bugs, players have been finding problems on several platforms, such as Xbox gamers not being able to activate Performance mode inFallout 4, or the patch preventing gamers from changing visual settings on Steam Deck. Several popular mods were also broken, and the eagerly awaitedFallout: Londonmod had to be delayed.

However, the update did fix several of the old bugs, and it improved the game’s performance. Earlier this week, fans noticed thatFallout 4’s load times sharply decreased after the update. When comparing the PS4 version load times on the PS5 against the native PS5 version, gamers discovered they went from an average of 40 seconds to only 15, which is a huge improvement. At the moment, the new problems introduced in the update are still not patched, though, and it remains to be seen whether Bethesda will fix them or not.
