Point_Man: There was a rumor going around that the 76 is the release date. So July 6th. That would be weird to show it off during E3 and release it a month later. Then again it's probably just Fallout 4 with a multiplayer mod or something.
blotunga: Or, more likely, ESO with Fallout skin.
I doubt it. Biggest reason being MMOs are the most expensive genre of game to make and take a lot of work. I don't think they were working on this Fallout 76 for long. It would make sense if it was just Fallout 4 with multiplayer. I heard that Fallout 4 might have just been a test of the new modding & base building mechanics for this upcoming game. Maybe that explains why FO4 wasn't really an RPG.
Also if they made another MMO they would be competing with themselves and they spent so much time getting ESO to where it is i don't think they want to jump into all that again so soon.
People are expecting Fallout 76 to be more along the lines of Rust, Conan Exiles or Ark rather than an MMO. Either way i probably won't be interested but i'll wait to see what they show at E3.
