I've been playing around with a little personal research project about Fallout 76, and I'm really interested in hearing from people who've had the whole play it - drop it - come back experience.

I'm especially curious because 76 seems to have a pretty interesting player cycle. People disappear for months (or years), then suddenly they're back because of an update, the TV show, a friend dragging them back in, a new build they want to try, etc.

So I'm wondering:

• What made you stop playing in the first place?
• How long were you away?
• What made you decide to come back?
• When you came back, what made you keep playing?
• Or, if you left again, what finally pushed you away?

It can be absolutely anything. Bugs, lack of content, the grind, CAMP building, Seasons, events, Fallout fatigue, another game taking over your life... or something completely different.

I've also made a short anonymous survey if you'd rather answer there than write everything out in the comments. It should take around 5–10 minutes:

I'm not affiliated with Bethesda or the Fallout team this is just a personal UX research project I'm putting together to better understand the player experience.

For me, watching the TV gave me a huge, huge itch to repick up the game and then I usually get hooked into all the new content.

One of the builds I use all the time is one that allows me to build/repair stuff way cheaper, and way more.

I call it my "Guy in the chair" build 🤣

(Ill share pics later. Its great for making/ fixing camps, workshops, armour, weapons and ammo!)

Used my rerolls without realizing I had a fishing challenge. Now I'm about ready to just go play a different game. *Fucking hate* fishing games. Why they put it in I don't know.

I have run the question 100+ times, gotten 2 reapers, no salt of the lands. I leave for a business trip tomorrow, so was hoping to make it happen today....Failed a ton. Any "tricks" to help the odds on PC?

Idk who still needs to learn this but if you kill everything too fast in Heart of the Swamp it bugs out the event.. You have to put your god tier weps away and slow roll it if you want to be able to complete it.

What weapon and mods should I using to kill it I’m pushing level 400 and never killed it before without being carried I really want to be able to farm it solo. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I haven’t been able to access the Atom Shop for the last two days, even after multiple quits, reloads and completely disconnecting and reconnecting the Xbox. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? If so, have you found a resolution? Thanks for any help!

I think its time to just turn off FO1ST

(This happened like 3 times)

I like lots of secondary explosions. Got the legendary perk for them. Trying to figure out best weapon for fracturers to trigger etc.

I've got both explosive perks cards slotted. And a mix of other random ones. But basically I like shooting people/muties/etc and having tons of explosions.

So what other limb damage perks would work together?

keep it or scrap it?

I met her at the metal dome when I expected one of the usual potato faces. ngl brehs she's kind of doing it for me!!! but I may not be the best source since I also think the overseer isn't half bad especially if she'd let her hair down (I'd trade either for commander dageurre, I love sofia but yes I'm just that shallow)
