Fallout
A new roadmap for Fallout 76 is here to detail out just what new features and quests will be added into Fallout 76 as we progress through the year
It is crazy to think about Fallout 76 hitting the market 100 days ago and that it is still up and running even after all of the backlash it has received. I, for one, still find joy in the game but many still call afoul on Bethesda for what actually came to market. It was a learning experience for the developer/publisher and it may have cost them loads of Fallout fans in the process, but that does not mean they have given up on the title and are still working on making it better. 300% better since launch according to their latest update. Something that also came along with a lot more fun for those still willing to give it a try or have been playing through nonetheless.
In a new update for Fallout 76 from the team, it looks like they have laid out the plans on what to bring to the game as free updates for the rest of the year. Some of it starting on March 12th and then continuing through other major updates until Fall of this year. Some of the basic things like adding in new quests and items are in there, but we also get to see new events to unfold in Fallout 76 as well as some new gameplay modes. Also the addition of new events to take place to keep us all playing longer than the average 4 hours a day. That is their number, not one I made up for fun.
You can see all of these new updates detailed out below. Obviously, the ones to hit Fallout 76 sooner instead of later have the most detail. The update coming to the game this Fall has some of the most cryptic wording that it should have been left out until Bethesda was fully ready to explain it all, but now we have something to look forward to. That or to bitch about again as seems the case with all of the Fallout 76 haters that have been generated in the last 100 days.
