  • Fixed an issue with the Head Hunter Scythe, Cauterizer, and Drill Fist unique weapons where their unique appearance was incorrectly applied.

In fact, all uninvited enemies should be 4 stars. Three stars are mostly useless at this point.

Question Does anybody still walk between locations?

73 Upvotes

I know this is an MMO and the fast travel system is there to make things easier, but I still find myself walking across the savage divide, or from Morgantown to the ash heap. Anybody insane like me?

I truly just enjoy listening to the radio and walking the wastes

Bug My Fallout 1st Expired a Day Early

Had a fun lil moment playing today. I got kicked from my private world while fishing today (October 16), thought my game disconnected etc., nope! Apparently I have no 1st Sub!

Funny since it renews tomorrow and won't let me renew it a day early either. Thanks Bethesda :).

Level 1000

I started playing right when the Love Hurts mini-season launched I think it was February. FO76 took a hold of me and I've played almost everyday since. Any build, any gun, any activity, I play it. If it's grindable, I grind. If it's killable, I kill. If it's craftable I've crafted it. It's the stuff I haven't found or completed yet that keeps me playing every day and this season has been my favorite so far despite the prevalent crashes. Could be the live service or maybe my old PS4 Pro just can't hack it anymore either way, I love this game and I will continue to play.

Question Will I miss the Slasher quests if I only start playing in December?

4 Upvotes

I haven't played Fallout 76 in a while, and I was planning to return when the World Pets update comes out. But the Slasher updates sound really cool too!

Will I miss out on the Slasher content or any previous quests if I only start playing in December?

Or will all the Slasher quests still be playable in December when the World Pets update comes out?

If you didn't grab their legendary item in time, just remember their bodies tend to get flug down into the lake below the landing platform! I've found a body down by the dock at least three times cause it's out of range of the "nearby corpses" prompt. I often use the "follow" "backup" emotes down in the water if I find the body.

My idea was to replace furious with two-shot, durability with lucky hit or perception, and get severing if I ever get the mod. I was also wondering if there's any perks I should add/replace?. I'd appreciate the help.

Question An Atom Shop outfit has straight up disappeared from one of my characters

16 Upvotes

I've had the Black Ice outfit for at least a year. Now I can't craft it?

It doesn't appear in the list of outfit options at all when I go to craft it. Not in the unlockable section either. But, the headwear IS available to craft. Just not the outfit...

Strangest thing is I checked on my older character, which I know for sure 100% had the outfit in the stash box - it's there! It's like the fit doesn't exist for one of my characters, my most recent one (number 3 out of 5).

I switched servers and shut the game down to see if that helped, and it didn't. Bit annoyed because I like that outfit.
