A bug in the Fallout 76 beta launcher would cause the game to delete itself. After instructing gamers to "not click any buttons," Bethesda admitted the bug and instructed affected players to re-download the 50 GB title. In an effort to make good with its playerbase, Bethesda extended the beta to include this Thursday, November 1, from 2 PM to 11 PM.

There's nothing more fitting for a post-apocalyptic game like self destruct button. All the "Launcher" needed is explosion graphics and we'd reached the new heights of creative marketing. "It's not a bug, it's a feature"
Bethesda.
Bethesda never changes.
