Yeah, they say the bug is fixed, but it doesn’t feel like much has changed. Less power and those pesky controls still seem off. Going up feels tricky and down is just hover trouble. Ugh, getting the worst of both worlds! What a mess!

I know, right? One minute it’s fine, then it goes back to being a hassle.

Yeah, a lot of players have noticed that the jetpack isn’t performing like it used to after the last update in March 2025. There have been reports about reduced lift, quicker AP usage, and shorter hover times. Even with the Marsupial mutation, it feels like the thrust just isn’t cutting it anymore. Keep an eye on Bethesda’s updates for any fixes, and maybe try jumping a bit higher before activating the jetpack for a small boost!

These MODUS reports are pretty detailed, though! Thanks for sharing!

Definitely! Sounds like we’re all feeling the jetpack blues.

The patch notes did say they fixed that weird control bug from the last update, but honestly, it feels like the jetpacks still aren’t as powerful as they should be. I’m feeling the increased AP drain too. It’s frustrating because it seems like the controls are still messed up depending on your view angle!

Right? It’s like we’re in some weird balance nightmare.
