FALLOUT 76: INSIDE THE VAULT – FASNACHT DAY APPROACHES! (Re-Print from Bethesda)

Helvetia’s dutiful Protectrons are gearing up to welcome visitors from all corners of Appalachia in celebration of Fasnacht Day. Read on to learn how you can help them prepare for the festivities, join in some explosive parades around town, and claim some sweet rewards. In addition, we’re sharing how players on Steam can now join us in the Public Test Server (PTS), and we’ve got details on this weekend’s upcoming Purveyor Sale.


FASNACHT IS ALMOST HERE!

76 Banner Fasnacht 750x300

It’s nearly time once again to come together as a community as we usher in the warm rays of springtime, and bid a fiery farewell to Old Man Winter. Pull your favorite mask out of storage, throw together a festive outfit, and shine your marching shoes, because the Fasnacht Day celebration begins February 10!

Once Fasnacht arrives next Thursday, make sure to head to Helvetia every hour at the top of the hour to start the event by speaking with the Master of Ceremonies. There, you’ll team up with other Dwellers to aid the town’s Protectrons with their party prep. Decorate the barn, play a tune, gather ingredients for the feast, and more before lining up alongside the bots to take part in the Fasnacht Day Parade. Defend the robots against any would-be party crashers as they march around Helvetia, and then be sure to cap off the parade by lighting the ceremonial bonfire at the end of the route.

76 FasnachtMaskRewards 2022 1920x1080

The more Protectron marchers who survive the parade, the better your chances to earn rare rewards. When you complete Fasnacht Day, you’ll earn some loot and a legendary item. You’ll also have a chance to earn rare rewards, like Fasnacht themed gear for your C.A.M.P., or one of many coveted Fasnacht Masks, including a few new rare Masks that are up for grabs this year.

With a new parade starting every hour, you’ll have lots of opportunities to get your hands on plenty of those rewards. Make sure to join Helvetia’s most explosive party of the year before the Fasnacht Seasonal Event concludes on February 22.

FALLOUT 76: INSIDE THE VAULT – PREPARE TO INVADE THE PUBLIC TEST SERVER (Re-Print from Bethesda)

We’ve been hard at work making final preparations to reopen the Public Test Server (PTS) for our next major game update, “Invaders from Beyond”. In this edition of Inside the Vault, we’re sharing a look at upcoming features and improvements that will be available for playtesting in the Test Server. We’ve also got details on this weekend’s “Hunt for the Treasure Hunter” event.


INVADERS FROM BEYOND UPDATE COMING TO THE PTS

76 Banner TV 750x300

A little later today, we’re planning to reopen the PTS so that you can share feedback with us on the “Invaders from Beyond” Update coming in March. We’re eager to hear your thoughts on an out-of-this-world new Seasonal Event, Fallout Worlds improvements, a new Public Event that’s planned for another update later this year, and more. Read on to catch additional details before you dive into playtesting.

“INVADERS FROM BEYOND” SEASONAL EVENT

Otherworldly interlopers are invading our skies and preying on our brainwaves! Every hour on the hour during this all-new Seasonal Event, an alien mothership will hover above a high-profile Appalachian location to deploy Brainwave Siphons. Disrupt their efforts by banding together with fellow humans to destroy any Siphons in the area and show the aliens who’s really the boss around these parts. When you do, you’ll have a chance to earn rare plans to craft new alien weaponry, as well as high-tech additions for your C.A.M.P.

We’ve also received reports that our curious visitors have been spotted at various Public Events, so be sure to keep your guard up as you adventure around Appalachia.

FALLOUT WORLDS IMPROVEMENTS

One of the top Fallout Worlds requests that we see from the community is for progress in Public and Custom Worlds to also count toward Adventure Mode. We’re pleased to let you know that, with the Invaders from Beyond Update, you will be able to continue your Season journey by earning S.C.O.R.E. from any non-repeatable Daily and Weekly Challenges you complete in Public and Custom Worlds.

Additionally, we’ve rustled up a variety of new settings for you to tinker with in Custom Worlds. Disable VATS versus other Dwellers, or turn it off entirely, make your enemies explode into a burst of confetti, allow C.A.M.P. objects to intersect with one another, and more!

“TEST YOUR METAL” PUBLIC EVENT

Please note: “Test Your Metal” is slated for a future patch that will arrive after the Invaders from Beyond Update. However, we’ve included it in this PTS to begin gathering early community input. Give it a try and let us know what you think.

The Brotherhood of Steel recently learned that the Rust Eagles, an offshoot of the Blood Eagles, have been cobbling together a regiment of deadly combat bots from spare parts they’ve scavenged. Scribe Valdez sent a Field Team to investigate the threat these bots pose by competing against them in the Rust Eagle Arena. If they’re going to come out on top, they’ll need a little more firepower—and that’s where you come in. Gear up and help the “Gladiators of Steel” emerge victorious over the Rust Eagles’ robot army. The more Gladiators who survive the Arena, the higher your chances to earn rare rewards, like the new Raider Robot Armor plan.


IT’S TIME TO HUNT FOR TREASURE HUNTERS!

76 Banner TreasureHunter 750x300

Extraterrestrials may be arriving with our next patch, but they aren’t the only ones planning an invasion. Treasure Hunter Mole Miners are already digging their way up to the surface so they can plunder the Wasteland all weekend long. Track down Treasure Hunters in all regions of Appalachia and take them out to loot their Mole Miner Pails, which you can open to reclaim some of the riches they’ve scavenged. You can also visit your favorite Vendors to exchange Caps for Empty Mole Miner Pails. Take them to a Tinker’s Workbench to fill them up, and then open your freshly-crafted Mole Miner Pails to claim some more loot.

The Hunt for the Treasure Hunter event begins at 12:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, January 13, and it lasts until that same time on Monday, January 17.


Have a fantastic week, and until next time we’ll see you in Appalachia.

NEW SEASONAL EVENT: MOTHMAN EQUINOX

A group of robed travelers have just arrived in Appalachia, and they’ve taken up residence at Point Pleasant to celebrate a dubious occasion known as the Mothman Equinox. Calling themselves “The Enlightened,” this sect of the Wise Mothman’s most devoted followers plan to summon the cryptid through an elaborate ritual. Aid their dark endeavors and fend off rival cultists to earn the Wise Mothman’s favor!

  • Until December 21, the Mothman Equinox Seasonal Event will take place every hour at the top of the hour at Point Pleasant in the Forest region of Appalachia.
  • Begin the event by speaking with Interpreter Clarence on the roof of the Mothman Museum.
    • Join other Dwellers to aid the Enlightened in completing ceremonial tasks around Point Pleasant, lighting ritual bonfires, and defending against an onslaught of rival Mothman Cultists.
    • If you manage to finish each objective before its timer expires, head back to the Mothman Museum’s roof to complete the final step of the summoning, commune with the Wise Mothman, and have a chance to earn new themed plans.
    • While you’re in Point Pleasant, don’t forget to hunt around for ways to learn more about the origins of the mysterious Enlightened.
  • As long the Mothman Equinox Seasonal Event is live, you’ll also encounter Cultist High Priests during your adventures throughout Appalachia. Hunt down and dispatch them for more chances to earn Mothman Cult themed rewards, but watch out for their shadow creatures!

FALLOUT 76 SEASON 7: ZORBO’S REVENGE

Former (and self-proclaimed) Emperor of the Universe, Dr. Zorbo, has never forgotten his crushing defeat at the hands of Captain Cosmos during “The Legendary Run.” Now, Zorbo seeks to enact revenge by assembling a villainous crew, who will help him build a massive war machine he’ll use to obliterate the Captain. Here’s what’s headed your way during Fallout 76 Season 7, which begins today:

  • New Scoreboard: Join forces with Dr. Zorbo on the “Zorbo’s Revenge” Scoreboard as he travels from planet to plant to recruit a crack team that will help him take down Captain Cosmos. Along the way, you’ll be able to earn a host of new in-game rewards this Season, including cosmetics, in-game currencies, consumables, C.A.M.P. objects, and much more!
  • New Allies: As you rank up on the Scoreboard, you will also unlock Xerxo and Katherine, two new Allies who can join you in your C.A.M.P., sell you their wares, and offer a daily buff.
  • To Rank 100, and Beyond!: As with the previous Season, you can once again surpass Rank 100 to continue earning additional rank-up rewards through the end of Season 7. Each rank you achieve after 100 will award items like Perk Card Packs, consumables, Atoms, and more.

QUALITY-OF-LIFE IMPROVEMENTS

Community feedback plays an important role in how we approach shaping and leveling-up Fallout 76, and we love reading all of your ideas about what you’d like to see added to the game. With today’s update, we’re implementing a number quality-of-life improvements that have been suggested to us by many of you in the community. We hope you enjoy digging into them in-game, and that you will continue sharing your thoughts with us.

  • Nearby Corpse Looting: Unlike many of the creatures who cross your path in the Wasteland, you’re a born survivor! Whenever corpses start to pile up, you’ll no longer need to pick through each and every one to grab your loot. When viewing a fallen enemy’s inventory, you can now see and collect all the goodies that the creatures around you have dropped by hitting the “Nearby Corpses” button. Happy looting!
  • Legendary Loot Sharing: Going forward, if you’re within sight range of a legendary creature when it’s killed, you’ll be able to loot it. With this improvement, the days of trying to hit legendary enemies before they die, are over.
  • Team XP Sharing: Sharing is caring, and leveling-up as you adventure with your team is about to get easier than ever. Every enemy that you or a teammate takes down will now grant XP to everyone on the team, so long as they are within sight range of the creature when it dies.
  • Build Menu “New” Tab: We’re adding a “New” tab to your C.A.M.P. build menu that will display any new C.A.M.P. item plans you’ve learned during your current play session, as well as new C.A.M.P. items you’ve unlocked in the Atomic Shop.
  • Pip-Boy Keyring: Tired of all those keys cluttering up your Pip-Boy? Get organized with the Keyring, which is a new item in your “Misc.” inventory tab that stores all of the keys you’ve collected from your adventures in the Wasteland. Click it to view or access any keys in your collection as needed.
  • Pip-Boy Menu Color Customization: Show your true colors by changing the hue of your Pip-Boy menus using a new set of customization sliders that we’ve added to the game’s settings.
  • Ammo Everywhere: The contextual ammo system has been a very popular aspect of Daily Ops, and so we’d like to bring it to all of Appalachia. Now, all existing sources of ammo, like containers and creature loot, have a chance to drop a small amount of ammo for your currently equipped weapon.

PUBLIC EVENT UPDATES

We’re bringing a variety of improvements to Public Events through some adjustments to the Public Event system itself, the addition of a reward preview to Public Event map descriptions, and a number of balance change across many of the events that are currently available in-game.

PUBLIC EVENT SYSTEM UPDATES
  • We’ve streamlined the way that Public Events become available in-game by making the cooldown times between events much more consistent.
  • Public Event start times are now based on real-world time, and a new one will begin every 20 minutes across all worlds.
    • Each world’s next Public Event is selected at random. In addition, a Public Event can no longer appear twice in a row in the same world.
    • Seasonal Public Events that begin every hour, like Grahm’s Meat-Cook or Mothman Equinox, will take priority over normal Public Events.
  • We’ve adjusted the timers for the following Public Events to help them fit within the 20-minute Public Event time cadence:
    • Campfire Tales
    • Distinguished Guests
    • Feed the People
    • Heart of the Swamp
    • Line in the Sand
    • One Violent Night
    • Path to Enlightenment
    • Project Paradise
    • Radiation Rumble
    • Tea Time
    • The Motherlode
    • Uranium Fever
  • A few Public Events, like Scorched Earth and A Colossal Problem, have special requirements in order to start and can be triggered at any time. That has not changed, and these events are not part of the timed Public Event rotation.
PUBLIC EVENT REWARD PREVIEWS

As mentioned above, you can now preview the rewards that are up for grabs at each Public Event directly from the event’s description on the Map.

  • Select an available Public Event on the Map to display its description, and view some of the big-ticket items that are possible to earn if you manage to complete that event successfully.
PUBLIC EVENT BALANCE ADJUSTMENTS

Previously, some of our Public Events could be a little too difficult, end in failure too suddenly, or even last too long. We’re implementing balance changes for a number of Public Events to help smooth out some of these rough spots and improve the experience of playing through them.

  • Campfire Tales
    • The campfire often died down too quickly, which could cause the event to fail more easily than we’d like. Now, the campfire will burn a little longer, giving you and your event mates some more time to feed the flames.
  • Free Range
    • The Brahmin during Free Range were too fragile, so we’ve beefed up their resistances to help them survive more easily (though they will still need you to defend them).
  • Guided Meditation
    • Feral Ghouls now consistently run toward and attack the speakers, preventing an issue where they could remain idle in the parking lot.
    • Ghouls may sometimes still stand around if they don’t sniff out new prey right away, but they will always be much closer to the action.
    • We’ve reduced Ghouls’ overall difficulty during Guided Meditation to account for their increased speaker-busting effectiveness.
  • Line in the Sand
    • Line in the Sand was taking a bit too long to come to an end. It now has an overall time limit of 10 minutes, and uses timers to determine how long Scorched attack waves last, rather than requiring you to kill all enemies in a given wave. These changes should help the event flow more smoothly and reduce downtime throughout.
    • Upon reaching the event’s time limit, it will not fail so long as the generator is still standing. You will receive more rewards, however, if you managed to defeat all of the enemy waves.
  • Project Paradise
    • To help reduce the event’s difficulty, we’re lowering the amount of food required to level-up each biome’s creatures to 15 per rank.
    • We’re also adding some more resistances to friendly creatures that spawn during the event.
    • Project Paradise no longer ends in failure if you do not manage to kill the Alpha creatures. To succeed, players only need to defend the friendly creatures. However, rewards will be reduced if the Alphas are still alive at the end of the event.
  • Radiation Rumble
    • To encourage players to participate in the ore collection objective more often, we’re lowering the requirements to 5, 15, 30, and 50 ore for reward tiers one through four, respectively.
    • Radiation Rumble now has an overall time limit of 8 minutes, even if you have already reached the final ore collection tier. This way, you can continue defending against enemy attack waves until the event concludes.
    • We’ve also lowered the spawn rate of non-Ghoul enemies at certain Ore thresholds to prevent overwhelming enemy numbers.
    • Finally, we’ve doubled the Scavengers’ resistances to make them more survivable.
  • Swarm of Suitors
    • We’ve addressed a number of bugs that could prevent players from receiving the highest tier of rewards and from successfully completing the event. We’ve also made some design adjustments to streamline the event.
    • Swarm of Suitors has been redesigned to focus on killing Mirelurks within a certain amount of time, rather than preventing them from reaching the island.
    • Now, players must kill all Mirelurks in each of three attack waves before the objective timer expires. If they don’t manage to defeat an attack wave in time, a Mirelurk Queen will spawn and the event will end in failure.
  • Tea Time
    • Tea Time could end in failure too quickly at times, in part due to some of the pipes breaking too easily. As a result, we’ve increased the health for two of the three pipes so that they match the sturdiest one.
    • We’ve also tuned enemy attack waves to spawn creatures at a more consistent frequency to keep up the action.
    • Additionally, Rad Ants and Ticks no longer spawn enemy waves that attack the pipes. However, Rad Ants and Bloatflies now spawn in separate enemy waves that focus their attacks on players.

TUNE INTO PIRATE RADIO!

It seems someone out there in the Wasteland has found a way to hijack the airwaves to begin broadcasting their very own Pirate Radio Station! Open your Pip-Boy and tune into the new station to tap your toes to hours of new jingles, and catch a blast from the past with radio dramas and commercials from life before the bombs dropped. The audio interloper behind this rogue station has yet to reveal their identity, and until they do, you can at least enjoy some fresh tunes during your adventures in Appalachia.
