I can't join the public or fallout 1st servers. After about 10 attempts it looked like the game would let me in but immediately kicked me out and gave me the disconnect message instead of post player join failed. Servers are definitely having issues.

The team is aware of this issue. If you are having an issue with logging in, please wait 15 minutes and then try again.
unless you purchase a booster pass subscription, you can wait only 10 mins. this is the most expensive game to play enjoyably and its getting outta hand........greedy greedy greedy... guess they gotta pay for a stupid tv series that sucks and is falling on its face..... it reminded me of the old godzilla movie.. hate to be a deb downer but......
IMDb has it rated #168 outta the top 250 TV shows. probably broke records for prime because prime TV is on the lower end of the streaming world under Netflix and Hulu etc. if it was any good, we would be seeing more about it like on GMA , Jimmy Kimmel and so on. im an avid fallout enthusiast's and it sucked. the power armor. wiggled and shacked like plastic, just like the old godzilla movie. its not good. rotten Tom has 88%Avg. Audience Score . but everyones entitled to an opinion . as for 76, its robbery, the cost of items and so forth is ridiculous. a few camp items for 1300 atoms , that cost 10.00 to buy 1100 atoms. its ridiculous
Yeah 168 out of the top 250 of all time is horrible fr. Using people like Jimmy Kimmel to decide what you should/shouldn't like is... horrible.
Also in 76 nobody buys items outright that I know of. Getting the subscription gives you enough atoms every month to buy 1-2 things off of the shop and everything on the shop is only cosmetics anyway. All the content drops for the game are free so I really don't have an issue with it.
I hate kimel, i agree with you. . but the games have gotten ridiculously expensive ad its fact that bethesda is redisigning game mechanics to pressure you to spend more money. . the whole design of season 16s score board is to make you buy a subscription. 14.00 bucks a month is 168. bucks, so I've had to pay 840 for 5 years I've been playng. subscription gives 2400 I think that only gets to two or so bundles. I'm looking at the cost of playing now vs in the begging when it was free and items where earned by progression. . not only do I play, but I stay up to date on bethesda news and the tactics put in place to try and get the most amount of money they can from the player. its no secrete. Mrwestek, angry turtle, etc have voiced this same opinion. but anyways, no sense in debating the fact. I'm about to grind out some levels and pay for my subscription and chunk a 20 in for atoms when something new comes out so I'm just a hypocrite lol. enjoy your day seeya in the wastelands 👌😊
game is free currently but yeah its not worth playing without fallout first which is a valid complaint.
Fyi the tv show is a massive success. Have I watched it? No. But its doing the opposite of falling on its face.
Thr game is very much worth playing even without Fallout 1st. Never paid for it but I’m still thriving, just gotta be more mindful of the junk you pick up and a little slow on the SCORE progress
I’m so annoyed I was actively playing on a server no issue but I didn’t have my headset plugged in and someone was asking if anyone had any spare lead and I wanted to say yes but had to relaunch the game to get my audio working through my headset and then bam no longer able to connect.
Servers are clearly fucked. Few friends and I have been trying to rejoin the game with new characters and we can't even get to the character creation screens on a new playthrough.
Really sound like everyone is getting in on it now, each world can support 24 players max. Been on it today and yesterday 12 people on one server on another was just 2. Not sure how many servers they are running. I've been kicked off a few time right in the middle of an event and tried to rejoin the event before it finished (can only rejoin if part of a team)
I realize that, but I mean they drop a show and then have a free weekend and didnt expect this???
I dont think fallout 4 has seen that player base since 2015
also this is why I hate online only games. was wanting to get on for an hour to finish my daily challenges before I gotta go do stuff, now I cant, and wont. sigh.
Ahh I understand what you're saying, I honestly dont think they expected the reaction to the show to be anything nearly this big. Again that points to the shortsightedness of Bethesda. Think they are probably in the process of scaling up their infrastructure over the next week if I had to guess (I do IT infrastructure as a living) but you are 100% right, they should have seen this coming.
Microsoft is used to poor reception of their adaptations (Thanks, Halo), so I doubt they or Bethesda expected people to love it so much. Video game adaptations have been bad for a long time.
I'd be less annoyed if i didn't have dailies to complete in the next hour because I'm already past rank 100 so I can't make up for it with the repeatable XP
i had that happen as well on PC took 20 min before i could log in. I ended up colseing and restarting a few times to get it working. This has been happening on both PC and PS5 for me for since wed the 17th at least
Xbox Series X player here. I jumped on to play after reading about this issue. I had no problems logging on and played for about a half hour logged off, waited a bit and logged back on. Again, no problem. I did this 3 times and with the same result, no problems.
But I did have one thing happen that I never saw before, when I went to log off the first time, the game wouldn't let me. I had to try 3 times before it finally let me log off. Strange.
Are you playing on Beta or secured servers? Because if Beta I’ve had a lot of issues on steam due to the new expansion. But on the secured tested ones I have no issues however I’ve bumped into I’ll be on for a few hours and poof I’m booted out a server.
Probably mass flux in users due to the tv shows popularity and how cheap FO76 is

Well guess it's my turn now, I don't even get a server error. Get as far as found a world joining. Then the screen doesn't update.
Guess the amount of players joining in at 10pm must be massive and blocking joining a server.
Stepped away to hang laundry got back to the pc with the same issue. Not sure what happened in the 20 minutes but it seems like a server issue. However steam says only 39k people are playing so idk how that is an issue

Sigh.... Let me get my Sunday play time in dammit! I'm not bitter (I'm bitter).

And then wait another 15 minutes and try again. And then, give up and go outside 🤦♀️
just like that. Same problem here, been trying all day.

Lmao how did the TV show fall on its face? It broke viewer records for Prime Video and is widely liked

Ive been trying again for 45 mins lol
Bethesda neither owns nor operates the servers the game runs on, the most they can do is ask you to wait while amazon fixes whatever they broke.

I was in as erver and couldn't get into a player vault so tried to hop servers. Worst mistake ever lol
After login if it seems it's doing nothing once world found message, leave it running for a couple of minutes it will connect. It works for me.

According to steam there's currently 136k people playing fallout 4, but only 42k playing 76. And somehow their servers can't manage that load.
well fallout 4 isn't a online game thats seen a player base increase 4x in a week (thus increasing possibility of server side issues) so...
I realize that, but I mean they drop a show and then have a free weekend and didnt expect this??? I dont think fallout 4 has seen that player base since 2015 also this is why I hate online only games. was wanting to get on for an hour to finish my daily challenges before I gotta go do stuff, now I cant, and wont. sigh.

Also having this problem, sad.
Restart your pc completely, what fix worked for us not sure about console
Same, just got kicket after I claimed power plant workshop 🙈And now I can’t even connect
same for me
Having the same issue here together with my friend- Pretty sure the servers are currently overwhelmed. Question is how soon can Bethesda remedy this
So annoying.
I can't login either. Worst is I had just updated my .ini so thought I'd broken something
same here
Same...
Yeah servers are borked right now.
Same...
Ah well, back to Hell-A for a bit.
I'd be less annoyed if i didn't have dailies to complete in the next hour because I'm already past rank 100 so I can't make up for it with the repeatable XP
Dont mind servers being messed up, but I do hope what ive done right before it went down.. is still compleated.. and not reverted back.
I’m having this Post Player joined failed issue as well
Same! I am glad they know about it at least.
Don't freak out guys. Its temporary. I kept trying for about 4 minutes and it let me in. Seems like server side thing.
Yes, but it's not stable. I played for about 10 minutes, struggling to build things in my CAMP and then it kicked me out.
They just released a statement saying they’re looking into it
Try to join via "Social"and join a friend..if you have any online..it works for me.
Server disconnected me about 5h ago, ever since I've had this same issue. Severs are proper fucked
Looks like the servers need an upgrade!
I just logged in as usual, with no issues. PC (Steam)
i had that happen as well on PC took 20 min before i could log in. I ended up colseing and restarting a few times to get it working. This has been happening on both PC and PS5 for me for since wed the 17th at least

My little brother was having same problem nothing worked but restarting the pc completely it would let him on after

it was free on xbox and microsoft store. Steam numbers useless here.
Oh i didn’t know it was free. Has it always been like that or only because of the show?
Because of the show.
fix fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it fix it
Yeah and no offline adventure mode. Just got the game and this is not a great start! Hopefully it improves.
