After the highly controversial Next Gen update, Bethesda is now at it again with a less desirable Fallout 4 update.
Fallout 4: 2nd Next Gen Update on May 13, 2024! Patch Notes for glitches, bugs and mods!
In a vacuum (for someone who has never downloaded a mod and never will), these updates might not be so bad. For the rest of us, the updates are breaking our mod lists. This article will detail exactly what changed in Fallout 4's May 13th Next Gen Update 2, and perhaps more importantly, how to roll back those changes in a version of the game compatible with all of your favorite mods.
In the previous update, Bethesda added the ability to choose between Performance Mode and Quality Mode for anyone playing on PS5 or Xbox Series X. The difference is pretty simple: Performance Mode gives you 60 frames per second with lower visual fidelity, while Quality Mode gives you 30 frames per second with better visuals. In this patch, that system has been further refined.
You can read Bethesda's rather vague description of the new console options on their website, or read on to get the information in plain language.
