Camp building is central to Fallout 76, and with the April 27 update, players can finally create, save, and manage multiple campgrounds, a huge boon to the game’s more diligent architects.
Called ‘Locked and Loaded’, the April update, which also includes a new loadout manager to quickly switch between character builds, will help reduce some of the major sources of friction that still exist in the more than two-year-old online game. Currently, players can only build one campground at a time. If they want to build a new one elsewhere or completely change the look, design and theme, they’ll have to scrap it and start all over.
Camping slots change that by letting players save existing camps and then bring them back if necessary. You can still only have one campground active at a time, but in theory you could rotate between your main penthouse, an outpost, and a mountain jaunt if needed, adding more variety to exploration and rewarding Fallout 76more creative players by encouraging them to try new ideas. For the uninitiated, Bethesda Fallout MMO is home to some really cool creations
Special Loadouts is a new feature that makes it easier for players to manage their character build. In Fallout 76, these revolve around perk cards that you collect as baseball cards, upgrade, and equip them based on your total stats for the corresponding card type. It’s a unique system but also a mess to deal with and frankly something I never want to see in another Fallout game. Being able to quickly switch between different builds is a great reason to really play with all the different perks in the game, rather than sticking to the ones that make you a tank-like DPS snake and only switching every now and then to get crafting buffs. while making new weapons back into the camp.

The Locked and Loaded update will also expand the game’s existing and heavily loaded special ops grind and finally bring back the PTS, allowing PC players to experiment with upcoming changes to the game in advance and do free QA for Bethesda during the game. process. . But April 27 is still a long way off at this point after what has already been a pretty slow winter for the live service game. Last year, Fallout 76 switched to a seasonal model aimed at handing out Battle Pass-style rewards.
The third season, The Scribe of Avalon, kicked off last December, a few weeks after a new questline called Steel Dawn went live. Unlike some other live games, Fallout 76The seasons have been heavy on the grind so far, but light on the new content, and some players are desperate to see what the game’s 2021 roadmap will look like. Camp slots and loadout managers are nice improvements, but not new content to play. Fallout 76Season 4 is expected to kick off when the new update comes out at the end of April.
