Doesn't Fallout 4 or Creation kinda cap out at 4 cores anyways? Maybe they've fixed that here though. (Would be nice but I suppose not although it should clear up once it's playable on PC.)
That and Fallout 4 really liked high-speed RAM although I guess that's more common now than when it initially launched so it should help '76 here nicely if it's the same thing.
(Though the 24 players and 4 player groups might see a bigger demand on memory and such this time.)

Heh, weird requirements. It's either random, based on what bethesda has lying around, or this game is very unoptimized as their gamebryo games usually are.
Probably both

Interesting. Intel i7 4790 has 8 threads, Ryzen 1300X has 4 threads. Despite that difference, they are the minimum requirement.
