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

Surely it can't be too tricky to move Fo76 across to the Starfield Creation Engine 2, given that it essentially an upgraded version of the same engine they've been using since 2011, Skyrim, Skyrim Special edition, Skyrom VR, Fallout 4, Fallout 4 VR Maybe even move it to Creation Engine 3 that will be used for Elder Scrolls VI as a test.

Liking a couple of the fixes though. The Loot nearby corpses fix is very nice, but the bigger one for me will be the ability to switch between my PC's soundbar and my headphones and DAC without having to restart.

Other than that... Yeah... I've actually paid no attention to the new infestation thing. I'll give it a go for a while though.

They had had to butcher the engine to make it work with online functionality and if I remember had to get engineers from ID Games to help them get it to work so would suspect updating it to CE2 is not so simple.
 
So, a new infestation spawns every 10 minutes.

Does it Bethesda? Does it?!!!

Been on for a couple of hours and only seen 2.

Also, been having disconnected from server issues.

More importantly:

To all our Appalachian Vault Dwellers!

We would not have made it 25 Seasons (and the two years before that) without the support of all of you. Every Blue Ridge Caravan member, Brotherhood of Steel Knight, C.A.M.P. builder, Enclave soldier, Ghoul, Lone Wanderer, Mothman Worshipper, and many more.

We have heard your feedback that the rewards for the past couple of seasons have not met your expectations, so we are going to fix that. Starting with Season 26, we will bring you more, higher value rewards that are themed to be in line with the content for the update accompanying it. We’ll also provide fewer rewards that are alternative colors of already existing items and lean into providing rewards that are unique and new.

Your feedback means the world to us, so continue sharing it. And as always, thank you for playing.
 
Infestations are so buggy if your in Burning Springs they never even appear on the map you have to constantly wander the other regions wait for the green circle to appear....all for some BS 4 star legendary which will get nerfed as soon as they see player data on how strong it is!

I did 2 then gave up its a pretty pointless addition doubt they will do much to fix it. Think it will just join the endless list of new ideas poorly implemented then left to fade away! Its pretty much the same as grunt or head hunts 1 player turns up with a mega weapon its all over before you can even join in the event tbh :rolleyes:
 
What an absolute pile of smeg. There are maybe 3 or 4 items from the scoreboard I'd like & that's pushing 'like' quite a lot. And what's up with the hill-billy music? How does that tie in with infestations? Too little too late to take notice Beth, can't see myself or many others dragging themselves on every day for this pile of tosh.
 
Rank 19 already will be 22 by end of today cannot wait to clear this season not sure I m even going to bother farming after Rank 100 either as its so uninspiring right now!

Next gen update is not even coming to PC either not even the DX12 build which has been announced its a next gen console only update at this time :rolleyes: that's not going to go down very well with PC gamers!
 
Managed to solo 7 infestations bosses in the night on my 1st private world ha ha!

Its so buggy.....took 3 bosses out with a single grenade! Others were bullet sponges its designed to frustrate players for sure as some bosses get all their health back for no reason whatsoever......! Terrible poorly coded content for sure its literally burning springs head or grunt hunts in other regions with terrible rewards.
 
Anyone else having an issue with re-rolling?

Just causes me to be disconnected from server right now. :(

I do between 5k and 8k damage to super mutants per shot, had a boss that I was doing 800 damage per shot to. I had no hope of killing that one in any reasonable time as he could kill me from full heath in about 2 seconds, and once I'd respawned, they had healed! :mad:

Most of the bosses are buggy get trapped in the scenery then it becomes easy to take them out just wait for them to shoot first return fire duck repeat until all their health goes and hope they do not have the magic health bar which goes to full health again for now reason!

Its so buggy though the lack of QA even for Bethesda is appalling!

Rank 27 already will be 32 on Monday then 35-37 on Tuesday!

Maintenance Announcement - June 8, 2026

On Monday, June 8 at 10am ET/9am CT, Fallout 76 will be undergoing maintenance on all platforms to deploy an update that addressees the following:

  • Issues with the Survival Tent causing players to crash on PlayStation platforms.
  • Unequipping the Gazebo, Vault-Tec, or Houseboat skins can serve as a temporary workaround in the meantime.
  • Vault Boy remaining on screen after using the Sharpening Stone.
  • Addressing a crash that can happen when players are near the Gleaming Depths raid.
  • General stability improvements.
For server status updates, keep an eye on the Bethesda.net Status Portal.

We also want to let you all know that Infestations challenges have been temporarily disabled while the team continues to investigate reports on the challenges you have faced trying to participate in the content.

So I've got a couple of old bugs back again.

Have to unequip and re-equip my armour every time I get onto a world.

Can't fast travel as is always says "You can't fast travel when you are taking active damage"

Yay...

And I got 178 of the Infestiation Protector Kits. I got quite weighed down. :cry:

Rank 37 already today reckon I might hit 44!

40% SCORE boost currently helps a bit plus if you do a few head hunts in a team you can lvl up every 2 head hunts with buffs & boosting etc etc!!
 
Rank 42 today. Nice to see that Bethesda still Bethesda's.

Mutated events are broken and have been disabled. Re-roll anything that wants you do them. Killing mutated enemies can be done in the Daily Ops.
