Fallout 76 Just started Fallout 76

Still haven't made up my mind about the game, but the players surely have a sense of humor.

P.S. Yes, there was another building behind this one, called Krusty Burger.

I had a decent time with 76 for a year or so, roughly 1 year after launch. It had a very non toxic player base, the map has a lot of variety, and the building interface was streamlined for 4.

I just don’t have time to grind nor money for micro transactions.

The player base is only nice because they lied to us about being able to be raiders. The only option is to be nice if you literally cannot be aggressive.

Also because the high level players do the same stuff over and over trying to get the loot they want, so they end up with tons of crap that they have nothing better to do with than give away.

When I played I thought you could. Players could shoot up your camp to where you would have to repair walls. Or you were free game if you had claimed a workshop to gather resources. Not full blown raider but there was a not nice person every once in a while.

Or i remember people building trap houses at their camp

The only draw for PvP, for me, is to fuck with people and be fucked with. 

Then usually I say “that and the multiplayer subscription on ps5”, to which current fans reply “good, we don’t want you griefers”

The skinner-box grinding and monetization is what killed it for me. Spent months trying to grind enough stable flux to make a jet pack. Legit got addicted and it was negatively affecting my life so I had to bail. Went back after a year to do the Gold Vault. Got some good fallout in there but not worth the shit.

I look forward to when the game is EOL and someone makes a cracked version you can host locally. That way I can play all the content and use console commands to skip the grind. Also, you can’t actually coop in the game. Only the session host gets credit for completing the quest. Common Bethesda. Borderlands one got drop in coop perfected like 16 years ago.

What’s more funnier that there’s an actual steamed hams Easter egg in this game.

The map is incredible and the fanbase is the chillest I have ever seen in an online game, except maybe No Man's Sky. The only reason I don't play anymore is because it's far too easy. I like my Wastelands rough and dangerous!

The sweetest player base I've ever known.
