Fallout 76 krijgt grote patch die veel problemen oplost

Bethesda heeft een flinke patch uitgebracht voor Fallout 76 die een groot aantal bugs verwijderd, met een formaat van ongeveer 20 GB op consoles.

Fallout maakt een heropleving door dankzij het succes van de Fallout TV serie, waardoor veel spelers ook weer Fallout 76 in duiken. Vorige week kondigde Bethesda nog aan dat er ruim een miljoen spelers de game in waren gedoken in een dag.

Fallout 76 kwam uit in november 2018 voor PC, PlayStation 4 en Xbox One, en kreeg veel kritiek rondom de release. De afgelopen vijf jaar heeft Bethesda veel updates doorgevoerd, waardoor de game nu een stuk beter wordt ontvangen. Op Steam zijn er voornamelijk positieve recensies voor de game. In een recent interview met Kinda Funny Games, stelde Todd Howard van Bethesda nog dat Fallout 76 "sneaky populair" is geweest de afgelopen drie tot vier jaar.

Via het blog werden de details van de patch onthuld die 12,1 GB is op Steam. Op de Microsoft Store is deze 19,8 GB en op PlayStation is deze 19,2 GB. Xbox spant de kroon, met een update van 23,1 GB.

Naast de bug oplossingen voert Bethesda ook een aantal quality-of-life updates door. Zo is er nu een Max optie wanneer je iets koopt of verkoopt bij NPC's, is de World Activity lijst op alphabetische volgorde, is de scrollbar verbeterd en is er een Ammo Per Shot statistiek toegevoegd aan wapens.

Je kunt de volledige lijst met updates hieronder bekijken (in het Engels).

QUALITY OF LIFE UPDATES

WEAPONS

• Made several adjustments to the Cremator and its mods
  • Dev Note: The Cremator released with a bug that made it stronger than we intended it to be due to the way damage was calculated with its explosion. Players who had certain perks and mods on it did much higher damage than intended. We’ve fixed that bug, which has decreased the damage for that specific setup, but we made multiple tweaks and changes to buff it in different ways. Now, the Damage Over Time (DoT) should be a force to be reckoned with.

SEASONAL EVENTS

• Recipes and some items dropped by these events will continue to drop after you have learned them. These items are now also tradeable to help you get all the plans you want!
