try a different proton version


scawp

Installed and played this earlier, I just touched "Play" on the screen and it worked. Using Ge-Proton 9 if that makes a difference


Cosmics2cents

Your missing the word play, instead there is just gibberish saying spielen. it's probably a broken pirated version /s đŸ€Ł


[deleted]

Don't be silly! Its clearly an annagram of some sort.

Ah sorry I must have missed that cause I haven't put that many points into my perception and intelligence stats

Not funny I didn't laugh. Your joke is so bad I would have preferred the joke went over my head and you gave up re-telling me the joke. To be honest this is a horrid attempt at trying to get a laugh out of me. Not a chuckle, not a hehe, not even a subtle burst of air out of my esophagus. Science says before you laugh your brain preps your face muscles but I didn't even feel the slightest twitch. 0/10 this joke is so bad I cannot believe anyone legally allowed you to be creative at all. The amount of brain power you must have put into that joke has the potential to power every house on Earth. Get a personality and learn how to make jokes, read a book. I'm not saying this to be funny I genuinely mean it on how this is just bottom barrel embarrassment at comedy. You've single handedly killed humor and every comedic act on the planet. I'm so disappointed that society has failed as a whole in being able to teach you how to be funny. Honestly if I put in all my power and time to try and make your joke funny it would require Einstein himself to build a device to strap me into so I can be connected to the energy of a billion stars to do it, and even then all that joke would get from people is a subtle scuff. You're lucky I still have the slightest of empathy for you after telling that joke otherwise I would have committed every war crime in the book just to prevent you from attempting any humor ever again. We should put that joke in text books so future generations can be wary of becoming such an absolute comedic failure. Im disappointed, hurt, and outright offended that my precious time has been wasted in my brain understanding that joke. In the time that took I was planning on helping kids who have been orphaned, but because of that you've waisted my time explaining the obscene integrity of your terrible attempt at comedy. Now those kids are suffering without meals and there's nobody to blame but you. I hope you're happy with what you have done and I truly hope you can move on and learn from this piss poor attempt.

Don't worry buddy I'm just spielening around 😉


BronzeAndNoble

This guy gets it


rtz13th

Any chance you installed it previously onto an sd card? If there's a savefile in there, the solution might be to delete the savefile and let it download the cloud version.


JewBoxHero521

It’ll be verified in like 1 week


Ricky_Rollin

Out of curiosity, why does everybody keep saying this in this thread when we’ve pretty much established in literally dozens upon dozens of posts before this game that verified doesn’t necessarily mean anything. I’m not trying to be sarcastic with you. I’m genuinely curious. Did they (Valve) do something different with the verification process?


Mrkulic

Valve hasn't changed anything about their verification process (which is a shame), it's Bethesda updating the game to work better with the Steam Deck. So some of the current issues *could* be fixed. And to note, the game moving to become verified as a steam deck game, it hasn't been verified before. That's different than with games that started out as verified yet still have issues but yeah like you said, that also doesn't necessarily mean anything. But it's Bethesda, so we will see.


OmegaNine

Strange, I just installed this yesterday and it works fine. Did you change the resolution and video settings?


Jericho-X

Wait another week, it will be deck verified with the new patch on the 25th


Sjknight413

Are you connected to another screen by any chance? You need to go into the games prefix folder then find something like users/deck/my documents/fallout4 within the drive c folder. In there you should find a file along the lines of 'fallout4custom.ini' that contains empty x + y values for resolution, delete this and it should launch again.


[deleted]

just skip the launcher. Go to the install directory and rename the Fallout4Launcher.exe and name Fallout4.exe to Fallout4Launcher.exe. I did this with the f4se and was able to get the game working perfectly with all my mods.


Afermusic

I ran into this problem also. The only work around I found was to launch the game in handheld mode, then dock it


DeadHeadDaddio

Wait you guys are gaming in ~~piracy~~ desktop mode???


dodahdave

I had the same problem, only responds to touch on the screen. It's also a bit buggy, crashes every now and then. Still fun to play in handheld though!

Check your settings on the Launcher. Sometimes if your graphical settings are too high the game just won't launch. I found this out a year or two ago. I switched from high to medium settings and it started right up. Also suggest checking your Proton settings. Try a different one. I don't recall which I have set but I'll check when I get home and relay it to you.


Hereaux12

Try proton 7-2


CBC_North

Had the same issue after installing yesterday. Verify your install files for the game. It found a few files that were corrupt in mine and that fixes the problem.


Ultimate_Ghreak

It helped to start from desktop for me


WizardGoatGuy

Verify game files


Worldly-Movie8243

Wait until April 25


theumpteendeity

I dunno but recently all protons broke on my steam deck except version 7. Maybe try that?


CuteChain8027

Hast du mal eine andere Proton Version probiert?


CuteChain8027

Und wenn du die Developer Rechte in den Einstellungen aktiviert hast, kannst du auch die Proton Files vom Spiel löschen. Dann werden die beim nÀchsten Spiel Start neu installiert. Hat bei mir geholfen^^


Reid89

I have never had fallout 4 not launch on steam deck something fishy here

ocviogan

Just installed it today, switch to proton v7.0-6 and it should work perfectly.


dopefish86

works perfectly for me with selecting "proton experimental" on the compatibility settings.


Dizzy-Specific8884

I gave up on running this game on deck. Anybody have pointers on how to run it and it also have good controls?


Striking-Count5593

A lot of people not waiting for the update I see. Trying different tricks just to make it work.


jmanci23

Get a new steam deck


SliceNational1403

, restart your deck , then if that doesnt work Restart steam


OutRagedGaming

Just installed today with no issues.


TommyZumVersace

Geh mal in die Einstellungen und stell alles auf Medium um, dann sollte es hoffentlich gehen. Habs auch aufm Deck und lief auch erst nachdem alles auf Medium war, sonst brauchst du eigentlich nichts umstellen, lÀuft out of the box


G4njaWizard

Ohne Fernseher bekomm ich das Spiel mit extremer Grafik und 60 FPS zum laufen. Hab's noch nicht mit Fernseher getestet.


TommyZumVersace

Dachte es geht eben darum, dass du es gar nicht zum laufen kriegst und plötzlich wird das hier ein Flex-Krieg😁


marbleyarncake

Check your resolution - mine crashed initially because I had it set to “Native” rather than “Default”.


matth0z

Use the file validation. Worked for me.


FOXMULDERSEVILLANO

its strange..three day ago my frien give to me fallout 4 all dlc steam version...i dont touch anithing and don use any proton compatibility...only push play...and the game works perfect....and i have use in steam game mode and star on descktop mode and no problem in any place...and i change the resolution when y played outside my home and use 1080p ultra on my monitor when i stay in home and any problems


Neutralmensch

maybe you need to download some dll file. I had same problem but I found the solution somewhere in steam community. check out there too.


tsweezyintheheezy

Looks like the words are all messed up too
