I own fallout 4 on disc and the season pass. Because I'm lazy I purchased the digital version in the sale as it was super cheap. Just the standard version. Once the transaction went through it showed the game of the year version (that's not odd it's done that before when you own all the extras)

Went on today to download it and it's gone from my purchases list. Just shows I own it on disc. All the dlc is untied to the account. It's like I've bought the season pass but never downloaded the dlc...

Wtf do I download?... I don't want another entry on my download list with dlc repeated ? also what gives with no option to upgrade? Why is it not showing in my recent purchases either ? I really don't wanna have to deal with their customer support again

I was having issues earlier, as I too have the standard edition on disc and bought the Season Pass. I installed the game the other day in preparation for this, but when I tried to download the PS5 version today it kept showing me a price with the DLC showing as Free. I had to put the disc in and everything changed it started showing the PS5 version for Free as well as a Download button for the DLC. Now, why it's not counting the fact that you bought the Digital version? I don't know. But try putting the disc in and see that allows it.

I'm gonna hold off on the DLC. I don't want more multiples. I have 3 of the same dlc listed for infamous second son. Infact I have 3 of the game itself in my library lol Theres another game, I forget which but that shows dlc for other games in that's list ?

I used the app, went to my PS4 FO4 and addon then manually added to library each that was "free" since I had bought the season pass. Then choose version and picked PS5 upgrade. Added to library then the GOTY version showed bought for PS4 and PS5. Before doing thatI had to buy the GOTY. But now it's purchased. ?

Personally, I had no issues downloading anything it was all very smooth and simple. My save data was transferred well too (although I bought the digital PS4 version a while back). My trophies didn't auto-pop though so I started a new character since I didn't make it too far with my original.

Unfortunately, the PS5 version crashed within the first hour of play. I was making my way over to the first town for the first major quest and it crashed. I've never had a game crash within the first hour. Usually that happens after 30+ hours or more. Hopefully, they're looking into fixing some of these technical issues because I can't stand it when games crash.

I recently bought the GOTY on disc and got the DLC from the code that came with that. Just checked and I got the PS5 version of the game as a free download despite never having even put in the disc of the PS4 one, so the system recognizes if I have that code I also must have the disc.

Fallout is an American post-apocalyptic drama television series created by Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet for Amazon Prime Video. Based on the role-playing video game franchise created by Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky,[a] the series stars Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Kyle MacLachlan, Moiss Arias, Xelia Mendes-Jones, and Walton Goggins.

Amazon purchased the rights to produce a live-action project in 2020, and the series was announced that July, with Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy's Kilter Films joined by Bethesda Game Studios in the production. Nolan directed the first three episodes. Bethesda Game Studios producer Todd Howard, who directed various games in the series, signed on to executive produce alongside Nolan and Joy. Robertson-Dworet and Wagner were hired as the series' showrunners in January 2022, and Goggins and Purnell were cast in February and March, respectively.

Fallout premiered on Prime Video on April 10, 2024. The series received generally positive reviews from critics and fans, with praise for the performances (particularly of Purnell, Moten, and Goggins), writing, visuals, production design, and faithfulness to the source material. Later that month, the series was renewed for a second season. Fallout was also nominated for 16 Primetime Emmy Awards including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Goggins.

The series depicts the aftermath of the Great War of 2077, an apocalyptic nuclear exchange between the United States and China in an alternate history of Earth where advances in nuclear technology after WWII led to the emergence of a retrofuturistic society and a subsequent resource war.[4] Many survivors took refuge in fallout bunkers known as Vaults, most being unaware that each Vault was designed to perform sociological and psychological experiments on the Vault Dwellers on behalf of Vault-Tec. More than 200 years later in 2296,[5] a young woman named Lucy leaves behind her home in Vault 33 to venture out into the dangerously unforgiving wasteland of a devastated Los Angeles to look for her father, who has been kidnapped by wasteland raiders. Along the way, she meets a Brotherhood of Steel squire and a legendary ghoul bounty hunter, each having their own mysterious pasts and agendas to settle.

Bethesda had been approached multiple times about a television adaptation of the Fallout video games since the developer released Fallout 3 in 2008, according to Bethesda's Todd Howard, though he felt none of the suggestions met the vision of the Fallout series.[7] Bethesda's marketing executive Pete Hines had also cautioned the company in 2015 about the potential impact of a poor adaptation of their video games, saying, "There's way more things that can go wrong than can go right with this," since the adaptation's director may override the vision of the series.[8] Hines pointed to the example of the 2005 Doom film as an example of a bad adaptation.[8]

The situation changed when Jonathan Nolan approached Bethesda with his idea of a Fallout television series, having been an avid player of the game series. Howard, having seen what Nolan had created with the Westworld series, found that Nolan had a clear vision for the adaptation, and agreed this approach was a good way to bring the game series to the television screen.[7][9] Bethesda gave Nolan freedom to craft a story as long as it remained true to the Fallout universe but served as its own unique story within the game series and not translate one of the existing games to television.[9]

The television adaptation was formally announced in July 2020 under Amazon Studios (later renamed Amazon MGM Studios) with Nolan and Lisa Joy developing the work.[10] Joy described the series as "a gonzo, crazy, funny, adventure, and mindfuck like none you've ever seen before".[11]

The series is canon within the Fallout continuity. Howard wanted an original story, instead of an adaptation of the games,[13] though the series continues game storylines and factions, such as the Brotherhood of Steel. The series' 2296 setting is the furthest in the future that the Fallout franchise has occurred.[14] On April 18, 2024, Amazon Prime Video renewed the series for a second season, following the immense success of the first season's release.[15] Season 1 of the show had a budget of $153 million.[16]

In February 2022, Walton Goggins was cast in a lead role as Cooper Howard, a Hollywood actor who became a Ghoul after the bombs fell.[17] In March 2022, Ella Purnell joined the cast as a peppy Vault-Dweller.[18] In June 2022, Kyle MacLachlan (Hank MacLean), Xelia Mendes-Jones (Dane) and Aaron Moten (Maximus) joined as regulars.[19]

Filming began on July 5, 2022, in New Jersey, New York and Utah.[21] Wasteland scenes were additionally filmed in Kolmanskop, a former mining operation-turned-ghost town, as well as on Namibia's infamous Skeleton Coast. The desolate location is where desert sands meet the sea, where the western Namib Desert reaches Namibia's South Atlantic coastline. As a result of the treacherous seas offshore, the "skeleton" coast is dotted with both historic and recent shipwrecks;[22] some scenes were filmed at the wreck of the Eduard Bohlen.[23] Nolan directed the first three episodes of the series, with Stuart Dryburgh and Teodoro Maniaci as cinematographers.[24][25]

Primary filming of the second season will occur in Los Angeles and Toronto, to take advantage of a $25 million tax incentive offered by California.[26] Filming is scheduled to begin in September 2024.[27]

In January 2024, it was revealed that Ramin Djawadi had composed a score inspired by the works of Inon Zur's Fallout series compositions.[28] Fallout also features a licensed soundtrack like the video game series.[29][30]

Jay Worth was the production's visual effects supervisor,[32] returning to work with director Jonathan Nolan and executive producer Lisa Joy following Person of Interest, Westworld, The Peripheral and Reminiscence. Grant Everett was the on-set visual effects supervisor who brought together a variety of visual effects studios for the environment, creatures, hard surface work and more. Framestore in Montreal took on the Yao Gui and Gulper creature work, RISE FX in Germany handled the Vertibird shots, Power Armor work and numerous environments, Swedish studio Important Looking Pirates took on the Cyclops overseer of Vault 4 and Snip-Snip.[33] FutureWorks in India did the Ghoul nosework. Refuge, CoSA, Mavericks, One of Us, Studio 8 and Deep Water FX were also involved across the 3,300 visual effects shots of the season.[34]
