This game may be secretly brilliant for it's bugs. I can't wait to see a compilation.
On this topic, someone on reddit finally had the reality of "multiplayer means no console commands" truly sink in:

So keep in mind this will be the first 3D fallout game where you can't just use the console to fix bugs. You can't give yourself noclip or godmode or anything like that. You also cannot mod your game for stability. Knowing this, and knowing they pushed preordering hard, it seems like release day will be a small disaster. They were smart to do a beta test phase.

The hardcore 76 fans have blocked out all criticism of the game and warnings from people who have struggled with the bethesda launcher and etc. in the past. I'd bet some of them will have a very sudden mood change about 76 and voice this change online.

Oh my loving christ in heaven I never even thought about that. The SetStage console command is the only thing that got me through bugged quests.

Also the "moveto" or "additem" for when people or items disappear.
I will never not find it funny watching people come to the horrified realization of "oh god we can't just use console commands, we actually have to rely on Bethesda to fix all these bugs".

The first guy is wrong though, pretty much every bug you see in this beta will be in the initial game release (because it's only 3 weeks away, that is literally not enough time to find the bug, fix it, and release a signed-off multi-console patch).

The gameplay you're watching on Twitch right now, that's it; this is Fallout: 76 in all its glory. All its buggy, janky, stuttery glory.

Don't open/close doors on alerted enemies or they'll clip into it/get stuck in the doorframe and become invulnerable.

The only enemies that seem to put up any sort of fight are the feral ghouls, I wonder if that's just a "low level starting area" thing

e: by any sort of fight I mean attacking the player at all after the player aggros them

Yeah the one I saw flew around blocking the drop, then went underground and shot off into space while on fire. Pretty realistic imo

"Normal levels of Bethesda jank" is a big loving problem in a multiplayer game:

10 seconds of noclip is a workable solution to jank in a single-player game, not in multi-player.

I can see why the framerate isn't solid - in addition to the tacked on multiplayer, it seems like there are lots of interiors that can be entered without a loading screen, more than in Fallout 4. That probably affects performance a bit.

I'm just waiting for someone to take the map and assets and mod it into New Vegas, doesn't look like it's going to be fun for more than a couple weekends with friends.
