**** Official Fallout 76 Thread ****

Well I got bored last night around 9pm and decided to fast travel to the Gleaming Depths site, fast travel loaded and just as I was about to load in the game crashed....oh dear said I.

Restarted the game and as that was my last location I spawned back at the GD site, instant crash, same on private server just crashing over and over.

Update gfx drivers, same again, updated sound drivers....same again. Uninstalled the full game and it worked....phew. Put the mods back on and it started crashing again so it has to be one of the mods that is doing it. SFE was just updated but my stats screen still wasn't right, I cant see anything on any of my stats screens, even the little fallout guy isn't there so I think I'll just leave that off for now. I'll try going through them 1 at a time today but when it hit around 1am last night and I was up at 6 I had to get a bit kip.

I'm too old for this lol.

Congrats on turning 40, I'm 53 in a couple of weeks and most of the guys I know who play this are late 40's or early 50's, I guess VATS makes up for our old man reflexes eh!

Mods are like glasses or dentures, we need them but can live without them to a degree lol.
I still have not used SFE, only sorted 1 build out so I just focus on that. Makes life simple. Like me

Yep, I have put Old Explorer. Fitting as I clocked 40 this year lol.

And I'm somewhat inbetween at 46. Does seem to be a large proportion of 'experienced gamers' who play Fo76.

Just heard that the devs fixed a bug server side that would have allowed more than 4 players to join a raid. Was quite a clever method for it to trigger too. Team of 4 goint o the raid. One player leaves the team and sets up a new raid team while still in the raid area. 3 more players join his new team, 1 replaces him on the old team and all 4 join the existing teammates on the raid. Voila 8 players on a raid. All get the same rewards as well. Clever buggers who twigged to that one.

They should have scaled the damage based on 4 to 8 players, that way you could invite the 5th wheel friend lol

I watched the MrWestTek video about the junk shield perk card. It does make a difference and works well with a commando build. Well worth the 1 point investment.

Will have to have a look at it. Been reworking my builds with the new changes so will have to have a play.

It scales with luck and with the max scaling you can get 116 resistance. That's with carrying only 100 vault tach steel as that's the lightest and it does not drop on death.

Yeah it deffo works, I've been carrying cork as I dont have any vault steel....too expensive for my blood but I may do it eventually as it doesn't drop when you die.
