WILD APPALACHIA
RELEASE: SPRING 2019
New Quests: Shear Terror! – Uncover the ‘encryptid’ secrets of Appalachia in a new series of quests and encounters to separate monsters from myths.
They kinda already have all the tapes and this just sounds like a daily thing of go kill a monster.
New Quests: Ever Upwards – Journey to the deepest reaches of the woods with new stories for the legendary Pioneer Scouts. Earn merit badges, climb the ranks, and earn a customizable backpack for increased utility.
Another lovely daily quest located at BFE part of the map no one goes too.
New Features: Legendary Vendor and Scrapping – Locate the mysterious Purveyor to exchange and scrap your unwanted legendary items for new legendary gear. For every star rating on a legendary item you scrap, increase your chances to get the legendary weapon or armor of your dreams.
This should have totally be in the game in at launch.
New Features: C.A.M.P. Decorating, Player Vending, Functional Camera – Use items from your stash to decorate your C.A.M.P. Build vending machines and flag items for sale. Simply set your prices and walk away to continue your adventures in Appalachia, being sure to capture all your favorite memories using the new functional camera. The vending machines do all the work, you just need to count the caps.
I thought they said this would be in at launch.
New Features: Brewing and Distilling – Go on a new quest to discover the secrets of the forbidden brew Nukashine and bring the party back to your C.A.M.P with new brewing and distilling systems and recipes.
So basically the nuka distillers from nuka world? Kinda should have already been in the game.
New Seasonal Event: Fasnacht Parade – Chase away Old Man Winter and quicken the coming of spring with the ancient festival of Fasnacht! Join the celebration and complete this new limited-time event to earn unique rewards in the form of festive Fasnacht Masks.
A new event that happens with useless masks, meh.
New Game Mode: Survival – This all-new game mode brings a higher-stakes PvP experience with fewer restrictions, increased rewards, and new challenges plus all the original content of Adventure Mode.
Pvp in the game is just awful.


NUCLEAR WINTER
RELEASE: SUMMER 2019
New Game Mode: Nuclear Winter – An entirely new way to play Fallout 76, completely changing the rules of the Wasteland.
This will just be warmth and wet modifiers to go with food and drink. So maybe something they could have cannibalized from mods already.
New Vault Raids: Vaults 96 and 94 Opening – For our most seasoned players, test your strength in all new high-level group Vault Raids.
Snore super duper mobs that take millions of bullets.
New Feature: Legendary Players – An all-new prestige system will allow players above level 50 to become Legendary, resetting their characters with all new more powerful abilities.
More skills to not balance or maybe to fix their awful skills.

WASTELANDERS
RELEASE: FALL 2019
Embark on a tale with true choice and consequences in Wastelanders – our biggest and most ambitious update for 76. Wastelanders will include a new main questline, new factions, new events, new features and even more surprises.
The fireworks will be wet.

F76 would benefit hugely by allowing player run servers. Then folks could keep to themselves if they wanted, not need to be always online and best of all, could build things with groups of friends and keep some permanence. The idea that nothing you do matters and building stuff is pointless because when you log off it's gone is absolutely bonkers to me. That's like playing the Sims, but you have to make a new Sim every time you start the game an move them/build them a new house. Every time. What even the gently caress?

I don't remember having much issues with Mothership Zeta, beyond the "punch your way out of the cell" at the beginning with a character with no melee skills. I wanted to like Point Lookout more than I did, I still want a Fallout Louisiana after all, but by the time I got there the level scaling was absolutely hosed. Actually, why is Bethesda really bad at level scaling? Broken Steel's high level enemies were the worst, and spending minutes back-pedalling from albino radscorpions was the antithesis of fun.

Did you not have the dartgun? I always do Tenpenny Tower first so I can get it ASAP and trivialize the rest of the game

Alright, let's do this
Didn't Bethesda say that the latest bans over having too many toys were temporary? Do they think people are going to come back in a month or whenever they feel like lifting the bans?

I mean I know gamers have stockholm syndrome and can't quit their abusers but culling their playerbase and then hoping they will come back or somehow attract more customers at this point is a bit optimistic.

Tei this is disingenuous and you know it. Fallout 76 cant be a home. And if it was it would delete it the moment someone else tried to enter and replace it with theirs.

And then you would get banned for duping somehow.

Also unless Anthem is also the absolute trashfire of a game that caused a 3 hour video of bugs to be created i think it comes out looking better.

poo poo its the first game in a "new" series so there isnt even a pattern to emulate. Unlike 76 where the pattern is well established and still got hosed up amazingly.

The only thing that fallout 76 has going for it over anthem is that this dumpster fire is possibly funnier.

Always remember that FO76 is a game where 99% of the features are direct ports from other Bethesda games or mods, and they still hosed it up this bad. I don't know what kind of drugs Tei is spending Todd's money on, but they must be good.

Anyone read that there's some new Fallout pre-order listed in Amazon? Apparently it has a countdown video with a green tint or something. Maybe it's a F3 remaster.
