As previously reported, Bethesda has been having serious problems with "Fallout 4" PS4 mods. The issues determined were in fact unique to Sony's system, resulting to the studio going back to the backseat and resolve everything. Now, as already expected, the title's mods for the PlayStation 4 console are delayed. And this happened with no given feasible release date.
When the studio first released an update for the "Fallout 4" PS4 mod support, it opened various issues and glitches. Surprisingly, most of these are quite unique to Sony's console. Hence the resolution was not easily generated.
According to Engagdet, Bethesda has just announced via Twitter their decision to delay "Fallout 4" PS4 mods beta. While there is no possible timeline, the company said that they will update everyone as soon as they have the information. Nonetheless, if players want to experience "Fallout 4" in its original form, there is enough time to do so.
One of the known issues between "Fallout 4" mod and PS4 is the size limit. Sony, in one way or another, has only enabled the system to hold mods of up to 900 MB. This is pretty small when compared to Microsoft's 2GB. It is also important to note that Bethesda has seen a great number of issues such as wrong sound format, thus pushing the beta mods to a complete void.
We regret to say that the PS4 Mods Beta for Fallout 4 has been delayed. We will update everyone when we can.

Tech Times, on the other hand, reports that the reason behind the sound format not working is simply due to it being a proprietary. This simply means that sound files in "Fallout 4" mods are not directly supported by Sony's PS4. This, among others, is one of the many obstacles that Bethesda has to jump over.
Despite the disappointing announcement, the company should still be praised for coming up with such an idea. After all, "Fallout 4" PS4 mods are a relatively new concept, thus making them work is already an achievement.
Originally, "Fallout 4" PS4 mods were promised to be handed out in June. However, with what is happening, the release date remains a complete mystery.
