Fallout 4 players were disappointed with developer Bethesda when they were seeking to pass a frame rate patch, but now players are with Bethesda as they are trying to improve the game itself. The 1.8 patch for the game has started rolling out for PC gamers and PS4 gamers would be getting mods.

"Fallout 4 1.8 Update is live on PC today. Xbox One and PS4 are in certification. Come back for updates. https://bit.ly/2faAC9", Bethesda posted on Twitter. The Fallout team on Twitter also posted "Our next title update for #Fallout4 will add PS4 Mod Support. We expect it to release this month. Stay tuned for updates".

This means that PS4 gamers have something to look forward to this month, and since the 1.8 patch is live for PC, consoles might be getting their patches as well. The 1.8 patch comes with notable bug fixes and performance improvements. This patch will improve sound effects, fix occasional crashes, and reduce image blurring. GameSpot reports that these patches would be enough to please the gamers on issues they have been facing.

Here are the Fallout 4 1.8 Patch Notes:

Fixes:

• Fixed an issue in which some sound effects would not persist after reloading in an area

• Resolved an occasional crash when exiting to the Main Menu, and trying to start a New Game

• Fixed issues with spaces in Mods search queries

• Cannot rate "WIP" Work in Progress Mods, and Mods can now only be rated after they have been downloaded

• Doubled the amount of browse-able tiles in the Mods menu

• Fixed a rare crash that would occur when a Mod had an unexpected data structure

• Fixed an issue in which Library and/or Favorite Mods categories would not display correctly in specific situations

• Fixed an issue in which some Mods images would not load when scrolling quickly

• A Sentry Bot firing dual Gatling Lasers will no longer cause the audio to cut out

However, the star of the show are the PS4 mods, as XBOX One and PC community have enjoyed the mods for a while. Bethesda and Sony have settled their differences and have been working on the PS4 mods to help the PS4 community get the most of their post-apocalypse world experience. Skyrim and Fallout 4 are two of the games that will now have mod support on PS4. The catch, however, is that players are restricted to use the assets in game, and therefore the diversity of modding would be reduced for PS4. 

Stay tuned for more Fallout 4 updates.
