• 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.

• 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!

Welcome to Inside the Vault!

This week we have some exciting news to share about our next major update which expands our map deep into the wooded heartland of Skyline Valley!

Starting today, Vault Dwellers on Steam will be able to start testing this new update in our Public Test Server (PTS) and providing feedback on their experience in our community Discord [discord.gg](which you should join to stay up-to-date on all Fallout 76 news).

Read on to learn more about what’s currently being tested.


The PTS for the Skyline Valley update will happen in two parts, Part 1 launches this afternoon and will allow you to get acquainted with the new region, participate in a public event, and stake your claim on the land by placing down C.A.M.P.s. Part 2 will release in May and will introduce you to the all-new main questline.

The new public event that you will be testing is called Dangerous Pastimes. In this event, you will help thrill-seeking storm chasers get the best picture of the storm by protecting them from the elements, the Lost, and nearby Charged creatures.

To help you plan around what to test, we’ve prepared a special outline of when events will be happening throughout the PTS period. We invite you to join and provide feedback on these events.

Public Event Testing Schedule (Please Note: These Dates Are Subject to Change)

April 18

• Once PTS is open, the new public event, Dangerous Pastimes, will be running every 20 minutes.

April 27

• Dangerous Pastimes event will be replaced by Fasnacht as we test some changes around the event. Primarily, the changes will be focused on the performance and pacing of the event. Fasnacht will be running at the top of the hour.

April 29

• Dangerous Pastimes replaces Fasnacht.

Along with testing the public events, we want to specifically request that you all nuke the region while playing. Maybe something will happen, maybe nothing. Probably nothing... right?

Keep an eye on our Discord [discord.gg]for updates on when all these events are active and for feedback threads where you can share all of your thoughts and report issues you may run into.


Starting with the Skyline Valley Update, we are beginning a series of combat updates that are aimed to improve your experience. Our goal is for these changes to have positive effects on combat throughout the game. These will be tested during PTS.

To help set expectations, we expect these changes to take effect in a variety of places (Weapons, Creatures, etc.) across multiple patches. Giving you all a lot of time to provide feedback on the adjustments being made to ensure we’re moving in a positive direction.

To start things off, we’re adjusting the following creatures:

• Angler
  
• Cave Cricket
  
• Floaters
  
• Gulper
  
• Mutant Hound
  
• Protectron

We have also improved how we calculate the falloff for weapon damage at range. We expect this to smooth out the falloff damage for weapons that historically lost most of their damage right away. All ranged weapons benefit from this, but it should be most visible with Shotguns and Pipe Guns, as well as when fighting larger creatures such as Deathclaws.


All players who own a copy of Fallout 76 on Steam can participate in our PTS. Please note that progress from the PTS does not carry over into the live game. The Atomic Shop is also disabled during this testing period.

To install the PTS, open your Steam library, and install “Fallout 76 Public Test Server”.
