The Issue

Dear Bethesda Game Studios and staff,

As avid Fallout and Elder Scrolls fans who have devoted near thousands of hours into your games and enjoyed every second of it, we who make up the bulk of your fan base play on console, be it PlayStation or Xbox. We were overjoyed to hear the news of mod support coming to consoles. “Finally!” we sighed at E3 2015 when we heard Fallout 4 was going to receive mod support. This news was dampened slightly when we heard of a mod limit of 2GB for Xbox users, and only 900MB for PlayStation! We were promised this would only be temporary, but nearly two years later, the limit hasn’t budged at all! When Skyrim Special Edition was released, it boasted 5 GB of reserve for mods! We have played mods with Skyrim on Xbox for a while now, and we rarely run into problems with data caps. However with FO4, We find ourselves abstaining from mods that we should be able to have!

We the community understand limitations on console, but Skyrim SE has proven more than capable of holding 5GB of mod data. We ask as a community to use your influence as an outstanding game developer to allow Microsoft and Sony to increse the mod limits on consoles to a limit equivalent with Skyrim. Bethesda, if you care for your modding community and fan base, please try to increase this limit. This would allow many works from different mod authors to reach people who were shut out by data limits, and allow those people to experience the reason Fallout still has an active and engaged modding community, and why it still breathes life almost 3 years after initial launch.

Sincerely and with highest regards,

Your devoted fan base and thriving modding community

 

Those who support us in this endeavor, all we ask is for a signature and your support. If we garner enough signatures, together we can change our community for the better and have better developer-fan cohesion that will benefit both parties involved
