- the only true 5v5 competitive first person shooter
- the developer has been improving gameplay since the beginning

I like Fallout 4. I do, considering the fact that the configuration of the game is a straight-up nightmare.

1) I'm one of the very few players that use LMB (primary mouse button) for "forward" and RMB for "backward" and I've been using this way of gaming for the last 18 years or so. Every game has the possibility of setting up my controls the way I like to play. So it shouldn't be hard to implement in current games. But Bethesda isn't bothered to let people decide for themselves what they do with their mouse buttons.
And there are other things wrong with the engine, but those are minor annoyances to me.

2) If you want to set up all the graphics options the game has to offer, you would need to download tools from third-party hobbyists, who do a great job, in fact, they do Bethesdas job... which is sad.

3) Physics are still clunky. Like they were in Fallout 3 (included DLCs).

4) I love the dialogs, side quests, weapon modifications, building your own bases and bartering for goodies.

So does all the annoyance way up to the goodness? Yes. It does. But definitely not 5/5!

Even though this game isn't finished yet (currently alpha build) it's an awesome multiplayer experience. Sudden unexpected adrenaline rushes are guaranteed! The open world made by the developers delivers beautiful sightseeing as well as hide-and-seek gameplay in cities and forests.

Since this is still in alpha stage, don't expect bug-free gameplay and expect many features to be added in the future.

Alpha build gets: ♥♥♥♥ 4/5
