Oh boy so there's gonna be another fo4 update from bugthesda?

The steps for the Steam installation already include downgrading and disabling updates until launch.

Downgrading was surprisingly easy, so hopefully Bethesda can't break it until I finish FOLON.

Luckily, despite Bethesda’s blatant attempts to indefinitely stall the release with their conveniently timed updates and lack of heads up, GoG stepped in and saved the day.

So currently Bethesda can’t do anything to break it, even with updates. GoG allows players to play older versions with no risk of forced updates, and even if you’re on Steam, the team has made a downgrader and instructions on how to stop automatic updates.
