Fallout fans are no strangers to patches and updates.
Bethesda games are almost always massive, but that size can make it awfully hard to squash any bugs or root out any glitches that could be lurking under the surface. It's almost tradition that new Bethesda releases will launch with a few hiccups — thankfully, the publisher is typically great about releasing fixes in a timely manner.
Take Fallout 4's most recent DLC pack, Contraptions: players have encountered everything from Legendary weapons being demoted to missing menu options. These glitches aren't necessarily game-breaking, but they can be a major annoyance — though, with the latest console patch on the way, they shouldn't be an issue for much longer.
Due out later this week, the 1.5.4 patch for consoles will fix most (if not all) of the DLC's current suite of issues. Not only that, but it's designed to help bolster mod support for consoles as well: players won't have to worry about oddities like false Load Orders for too much longer.
Again, it's nothing that Bethesda fans aren't used to — and with a game as complex and multi-layered as Fallout 4, it's understandable that a few glitches would make it through the cracks. At least there's a fix on the way, right?
There's still no word on when exactly console players will be able to download the 1.5.4 patch, though Bethesda has confirmed that the update will be released later this week.
