Can I NOT update Fallout 4 ?

How can I NOT update Fallout 4 ?


At the moment I have appmanifest_377160.acf
write protected ---


But it stops the game from running !
Unless I use 'Off-line' mode.


Maybe I should just back it up
and see what Bethesda F up ?

First skyrim then this, then probably everything, due to the "success" of their new garbage they are on a mission to make sure their old titles are properly hated by the community while they add more junk, bloat and garbage. unfortunatly the nest solution is to own a totally standalone version like the GOG variants, the old variant ofc and not the "new" one.

What are you on about? Have you actually read the changelog? I mean, I know that hating on Bethseda is trendier than Swift & Kelce, but this really is stretching it.



Also, I thought this forum is for Amiga games support?

Well I decided to disable all my mods and then roll a new LUCY toon, okey dokey

Of course it doesn't help that I do like to run around in almost nothing to see if any of the NPC's notice, but they don't.

the changelog doesnt mean much when in real world use PC users have stated that nothing much has improved and they havent fixed any of the long standing/known bugs/problems, not even something simple like being capped at 60fps or rtx cards crashing which have been a known problem for a long time.

The only real benefit seems to be for Fallout4 console users, improvements over there are apparently substantial enough to warrant the update, the same cannot be said for the pc update.

Skyrim was bad enough, adding 12gb of junk nobody wanted, breaking mods, just so they could add an online store, we are just lucky they didnt add rootkit malware like so many games today do...for reasons, still amazed people will install games that grant higher than admin level access which isnt even needed for "anticheat" willingly just so they can play the latest "cool" game such as Helldivers 2 and many more.

Yep but the ones that are visibly active, are not the ones who can rearrange things. Given your more than 31'500 posts (even if some were... ), if there are vacancies, I vote for you as GMod.

I've been there before (some 20k posts ago ) and don't really have the time for it anymore. It would be good to have at least one more active GM though.

Holy saints are in short numbers these days, i both appreciate such people using up their time for such things but understand why we dont get such people in sufficient quantities. Then take that logic and apply it to any and every forum or chat channel out there.

But it started to validate FO4 --- so had to go offline again

Sorry for not choosing OT and kicking the Hornets Nest

Still an important question, though.

I remember setting the update times to hours I wouldn't be logged in and playing the game in offline mode.

I downloaded the GOG offline installer when I heard the news of what they were going to do.

I think there may still be files around of version 1.9-Something before 'Creation Club' was a thing.
