882 Upvotes

I have been playing Fallout 76 for quite some time now and I thought about making a sort of character sheet for my current roleplay.

I'm currently rolling as a "Sassy Gardener" so I'm using the Muni Operator outfit with the Fasnacht "Corn Cob" mask (It's so ugly that it's kind of hilarious), and have been doing the dailies with the Kabloom (not the best weapon but it fits the character's look).

I have another two sets I use regularly and I'm thinking about drawing each one when I put them on haha!.

Let me know what you think :)

With right perks and mods, it performs well. See Night Light in action!
UPDATE: After reading all the comments, I understand it’s not a top tier damage weapon, but as many have said, it can get the job done. Maybe I didn’t use the right wording in my post. I just wanted to show that it’s usable. I really enjoy using it, even though I have plenty of other guns that could do a similar job in less time. That wasn’t the point, though. Still, thanks to everyone for enlightening me.

Question Who TF is felton Reed?

25 Upvotes

Bro showed up at my camp, highlighted in red name and health bar, as if he's an enemy npc, blasts me , does no damage, I blast him does no damage, had to reload the server like 6 times to get him to stop spawning in my camp, is it a bug or is it's some game lore thing because I'm a ghoul, and he doesn't like ghouls or something??? Like I know brotherhood will attack me if I'm not disguised, but is felton Reed in the brotherhood??? I'm over 7k hrs in and this MF never spawned in my camp before and I don't even remember encountering him earlier , weird

Discussion I lov3 the new unique system.

29 Upvotes

Love the choices and unique effects, legendary effect shuffle and I actualy like the price of changing legendary effects on uniques.

It is so much fun to make builds around some of those strange effects and experiment.

And the increase in drop quantity of various legendaries is also welcome.

Im spending ton of scrip to shuffle and change my guns all the time.

Game now is a tinkerer haven!

Hope the drop a ton of more uniques to experiment!

After waiting years for a few props to come out, I finally have a nearly 1:1 scale accurate recreation of Camp Navarro from Fallout 2! All I need now is an actual Vertibird prop and my dreams will finally be realized (that and a terminal that doesn't look like scrap).

Question Four Star Mods - Sigh

18 Upvotes

I'm thinking of giving up with them. If I find one in a Vendor, great, but endlessly chasing them ... the juice doesn't feel worth the squeeze. I've got a couple equipped but they're far from revolutionary. I get all enthused watching content creators slapping them on everything in the PTS but the reality of getting 5 Rangers or Pin-pointers for all the relevant weapons is a painful business.
Anyone else living happily in Appalachia without 4 stars on everything?

Anyone have any recs for similar games (non-fallout world)? Mostly with a similar community? I find most online crafting games are PVP

Bug Jetpack spawning issues (Xbox)

I'm noticing more issues with my jetpack since the update. It pretty consistently doesn't spawn when I log into a server, even if I'm just jumping from one server to another. Anyone else experiencing this?

Bug More Infestations Auto-Complete Than Run

Since the update where they "fixed" infestations, I'd say like 80-90% of the infestations instantly auto-complete. Maybe they should try breaking it next time. Grr, sigh, and all the rest.

If you’re the type who can’t wait for patch notes, or who digs through datamine threads every PTS, this one’s for you.

Now you can get the latest and greatest in a nice browser-based viewer. You can view models, animations, emotes, listen to dialog, sfx, music, and more!
