“Being online, we have to protect the integrity of the game to ensure that players do not inject code and destroy the balance of the game”
If you wanted to official mod support In Fallout 76, you better forget about him. Despite promises made in the past by Bethesda and, especially, Todd Howard, everything indicates that players will not receive this feature. In 2018 the head of Bethesda noted: “We love mods, and we are 100% committed to offer them support in Fallout 76. Of course, we will not be able to offer them at launch,” he indicated
Two years later, Fallout 76 director Jeff Gardiner was asked about it and kept his promise: “We are definitely still working. in support for mods, which are on the way. Call heavy lift (heavy load). It means we have to dedicate a lot of resources to it… because it’s not just drag and drop like in past games, due to the client-server architecture. But is going to arrive“We’re working on it, so stay tuned,” he said.
However, in recent days it has been confirmed that Official mod support will not come to Fallout 76, and there is an explanation for this in an interview on Windows Central by the game’s executive producer, Bill Lacoste. “We’ve never been opposed to players adding interface mods and things like that. But any other mod where you expect to have a script extender, which is often needed in single-player games, won’t happen with Fallout 76. Being online, we have to protect the integrity of the game to ensure that players do not inject code and destroy the balance of the game in some way, shape, or form.”
Fallout 76 will not have official mod support
Lacoste continues in his explanation. “Taking public teams, for example, we wanted to make sure that players’ mods weren’t affected by any of the new features. Although we do not officially support modswe are aware of the mods that players use for UI (User Interface) things… But yes, We do not officially support mods. for many reasons. We try not to break UI mods, but sometimes it is necessary,” acknowledges the Bethesda member.
