MS giveth and they taketh away...here is the message they just sent me lol

"Our pricing error on Fallout 4 has been fixed and your free download will no longer work. For the inconvenience we will deposit $10 by the end of June in your Microsoft Account. This expires one year from the time it was deposited."

I was only able to try it for a lil bit last night....now I might have to actually buy it because I was intrigued, PC version of course :P

I wish I got paid $10 to try Fallout 4. I played that bullshit and had to pay money for it...


Microsoft is seriously loosing hundreds of thousands of dollars on this. Somebody is in trouble. Big trouble.

You're better off getting the 10 bucks honestly. That game must run like a From Software title on Xbox One.

Some f*cker would just end up suing them and opening a floodgate. At least this way they can catch the horse after they shut the gate.

i really doubt tens of thousands of people downloaded this game on the same day.. if it hurt them too much they wouldn't offer anything

@xantufrog: not necessarily poorly at the start, but it looks choppy with no implementation of motion blur at all. This on top of being an ugly game in general.

@Blabadon: I'm surprised. I know the Far Harbor is a disaster for whatever reason on PS4 but the base game has been generally pretty smooth and attractive (for FO4). I wouldn't think it would be much different on X1

I dont think ive seen that before where they revoke a game due to their own pricing error. Nice they gave $10.

Only reason Microsoft paid ten bucks to those who've gotten it, is because Fallout 4 is actually that bad of a game, that you could sue someone over it.

So, hush hush money to pay for the damage done, even if you've played it a little.

I dowloaded far harbor but I deleted it, I can still install it though but I won't so I won't corrupt my saves when they revoked the licence, I'm still going to buy far harbor when I need to do, but i spend way too much time with the minute men so I still got a lot of stuff to do

I don't know what xboxone version they are playing but mine runs butter smooth, the only frameratedips I'm getting is when I'm overwatching the map from a helicopter or a very high tower.

pc version doesn't look all that much better either. It's a difference when you play at 4k but my tv only supports only 1080p.

Transaction complete and goods exchanged, then MS, like a thief in the night steals it back leaving a note that they'll give store credit (that expires) and people seem grateful.

@asylumni: can't complain about a bug giving me a free game, then getting it fixed and still get 10 dollars for their mistake. In my mind, I got a few achievements plus 10 dollars for just clicking around.

What if you played the free expansion and saved the game before they took it away, does that mean those people have fucked their saves until they buy the expansion for real?

@princessgomez92: yeah it is, don't know why so many on here are bashing the game. Probably the same type who only play multiplayer shooters and not rpgs... although fallout 4 is not much of an rpg it is a great rpg-fps mix.
