I'm not saying Bethesda are trolling me specifically, but Fallout 4 and Skyrim updates are imminent just as I've modded up the latter for the first time in ages
Key Points:
- Bethesda announced upcoming updates for Fallout 4 and Skyrim, with Fallout 4's patch scheduled for August 18th focusing on general Creations improvements, while Skyrim's update release date is still pending.
- Players are advised to log into their game saves or manually save their load orders before the updates to ensure they can re-download their entire Creations list once the patches go live.
- There are concerns about mod compatibility, especially for mods relying on script extenders, which may require updates following the new game versions, potentially causing temporary issues for users.
- Experienced modders expect script extender updates to arrive quickly after the patches, minimizing downtime, but abandoned or outdated mods might remain incompatible until further action is taken.
- Players can prevent automatic updates to avoid immediate issues and should monitor mod updates post-patch before resuming regular gameplay to ensure stability.
