Bethesda brings more fixes to Fallout 4 with a new beta patch

Last week Bethesda released the first patch for Fallout 4 on PC, the patch is a 'beta patch,' meaning it's a work in progress and has the potential to cause a bit of mayhem. So before anyone decides to opt into the beta, Bethesda suggests to back up saved games.

The initial patch brought new features and general fixes to the game and the latest update (bringing Fallout 4 to version 1.2.37) has added three more fixes, one of which is an extension from the first update.

• General memory and stability improvements
• Performance improvements inside the Corvega Assembly Plant
• Fixed issue with player becoming stuck in terminals

If you haven't opted into the beta yet and would like to, you need to do the following:

1. Log into Steam
2. Right Click on Fallout 4 in your Library
3. Select Settings
4. Select Betas
5. A drop down menu will appear. Select Beta Update
6. Select OK.
7. Wait a few minutes and Fallout 4 should update.
8. When done, Fallout 4 should appear as Fallout 4 [beta] in your Library

If you decide you beta updates aren't your thing and no longer want to be a part of the testing, redo steps 1 – 4, at the drop down select NONE – Opt out of all beta programs.

PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players will have to wait a little bit longer before they get their hands on a patch for Fallout 4. Bethesda wants to make sure the patch won't break anything before deploying it across all platforms.
