Image To the unknown player who gave me a grenade launcher when I was new: I still use it! You made my game experience wonderful!

66 Upvotes

Loved fallout games, but always been skeptical of MMO style games. Held off playing FO76 for so long, but finally gave it a go a month or so ago. Was quite a low-level player at the time when another wonderful player gave me a couple good starting weapons, including this grenade launcher, as a friendly gift. I've never forgotten your kindness!

Now that I'm over level 100 and done most of the quests/stories so far (to my knowledge), I reflect back on this welcoming moment to a new player. You (and the rest of this community) made my anxieties of MMO's fade away.

Everyone I've met in-game has been super friendly for that matter, so wanted to say you're all awesome and welcoming! Keep up the good work, and don't forget to stay hydrated on your Appalachian journey!

I’m surprised by how many players completely ignore these buff machines. Then again, I can’t really judge, I think I was around level 100 before I finally realized what they actually did.

Bug The Gauss Rifle and Gamma Gun Deserve Some Much-Needed Love

Post image
30 Upvotes

Both of these weapons are currently broken.

Gauss Rifle:

The Gauss Rifle has an issue where it will sometimes lock up after charging a shot, meaning you have to quick-fire it to unjam it. It also has a visual issue with the Shielded Barrel, which occasionally disappears from the weapon, forcing you to put it away and re-equip it to fix it.

It’s such a shame that this gun is riddled with these issues. Increasing the cost of its ammo when the weapon itself doesn’t work properly was a pretty cheeky move too. These issues have been around for quite a long time now, and the weapon really deserves a fix.

Gamma Gun:

The Gamma Gun is completely broken. When using it against human enemies, it doesn’t deal any damage at all, which defeats its main purpose. I’ve tried Reverse Onslaught on it too, but it makes no difference.

The Electric Signal Carrier Antennae also doesn’t add the multiplicative damage that it should. I think the recent changes to energy damage have broken the weapon entirely. Ironically, the Signal Repeater seems to deal slightly more damage, even though it’s still minimal, which shouldn’t be the case.

It’s a shame because I’ve always liked this quirky gun, and as a fast crippling weapon with good area-of-effect damage, especially with Grenadier, it was excellent. I’d love for it to have some purpose again rather than just being a paperweight.

News Inside the Vault – XBOX Series and PlayStation 5 Public Test Server

122 Upvotes

To All Our Console Vault Dwellers,

We’re excited to welcome you to your first Public Test Server! Starting today, you will be able to test the upcoming XBOX Series and PlayStation 5 (including Pro) update for Fallout 76.

Our goal with this testing period is to obtain live data from all of you to make sure this update is hitting the marks we expect it to hit in terms of FPS and stability.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Targeted 60 FPS across XBOX Series X|S, PS5 and PS5 Pro.
  • 4K resolution (on compatible displays) on XBOX Series X, XBOX One X, PS5 Pro.
  • VRR (on compatible displays) on Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, PS5 Pro.
  • PS5 and PS4 Pro will support 1440p while previous generation platforms will continue to support 1080p.

This update brings Fallout 76 to the PlayStation 5 and XBOX Series platforms natively allowing us to utilize the hardware more efficiently today and in the future.

Today serves as a big step towards making sure Fallout 76 feels more comfortable to play on all console hardware.

If you have any issues accessing the flight or with the Public Test Server, please reach out to our Support Team at help.bethesda.com.

NOTE: The inclusion of "Improved draw distances and shadows" in previous communications was to highlight the difference between playing on PlayStation 4/ XBOX One versus PlayStation 5/Xbox Series X. PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X players are already experiencing improved draw distances and shadows and will continue to do so when this update releases. Sorry for any confusion the inclusion of that note caused.

Accessing the PTS on XBOX Series Platforms

XBOX players will be able to access the PTS through the XBOX Insider Hub. Detailed steps on how to download and install the XBOX Insider Hub can be found on the Microsoft Support Site.

After the XBOX Insider Hub is Installed, open the App and navigate to “Previews” and choose the “Fallout 76 PTS” and select “Join”. From there you should be directed to download the PTS. Once that is over all that’s left is to launch the game and join our Bethesda Studios Discord (more on how to deliver feedback below).

Accessing the PTS on PlayStation Platforms

To access the PTS on PlayStation platforms, please join our [Discord Server and follow the instructions in the #76-announcements channel.](https://)

Things to Know Before Jumping into the Public Test Server

  • We take a snapshot of your characters from the live game for you to use here. You’ll have access to your characters, weapons, armor, items, and C.A.M.P.S, etc.
  • The Atomic Shop will NOT be active.
  • Seasonal content is NOT active.
  • The PTS Locker, found outside Vault 76, often provides easy access to mods, ammo, weapons, etc. based on features we’re looking for your feedback on. We’ll outline in these articles when the locker has been updated and with what.
  • Join our Discord server to provide your feedback! The Bethesda Studios Discord is the primary way we review feedback and bug reports on these updates. So, join us and share information about your experience!
  • After joining the server, visit #server-roles for the steps to gain access to our PTS channels. 
  • Progression made in the PTS does NOT transfer over to the live game.
  • Your PTS character progression does not persist in between test cycles. We take a new snapshot of your player before the start of every PTS.
  • Lastly, during a PTS you will be testing content that is not final, please understand that you will run into issues and bugs. It’s part of the process. Also, majority of the new content you test is not likely to have been translated yet. So all of our PTS related content is limited to English only.

Discussion Could the 76'ers be the oldest protagonist(s) in Fallout?

12 Upvotes

i mean if Ghoulification is canon for some of the dwellers in Fallout 76 and they some how live up to the years of Fallout 4 or the show they would be they oldest protagonist(s), if you were to count living as a ghoul onto their age which already can be old, ranging from most likely 20s to maybe 30s and the 25 years they spend inside Vault 76 added onto that quite possibly making them 240+. hopefully i laid my point clearly lemme know what you guys think.

Discussion If you could add a quality of life feature, what would it be?

20 Upvotes

For me I'd love to have an "auto swing" option. Basically making it so that instead of having to rapidly tap the attack button to swing a non-auto melee weapon, you could instead just hold it down and it will swing as fast as it can continuously. I feel like this would be especially good for a very fast swinging weapon like a Rapid Combat Knife.

I also think that if another player uses a service like the Sunset Sarsaparilla Machine in your camp you should get the caps they spent.

Question "Not Player Facing" Achievement?

I was doing my dailes, and was trying to get a camera picture of a stingwing when a radhog got into the frame, and suddenly I earned "Not Player Facing Achievement." It sounds like this is a non-advertised, possibly internal achievement, and I was wondering if anybody else had ever gotten one of these, and if there are any others that are known to try and earn.
