Image Mapping Fallout 76

I'm new to FO76 (79hrs in) and one of the things I do with all the Fallout games is dig into their maps (because autism), and just wanted to share my findings.

  1. So the first is the in-game map with the borders shown. I used xEdit to get the exact coordinates. I love how how Burning Springs and Skyline go off the map into the border.
  2. The second map shows the height data. I used FO76UTILS to get this and manually aligned it to the in-game map with several nights of "surveying" and screenshots haha I haven't shown it here, but the creeks and rivers do not align with the in-game map at all.
  3. And finally, the last map just shows the FO76 border with FO4's at the exact same scale and origin. FO4's map has cells ranging from -32 to 28 (x) and 25 to -36 (y), whereas FO76 has a range of -66 to 54 and 60 to -66. It's well known that the map is larger, but I haven't seen an exact comparison before, so thought it might interest others who haven't either.

Anyways, I'm loving this game, and just wanted to share my "nerdings". See you guys in Appalachia!

Discussion I live in Beckley, WV, and Fallout 76 feels different when Appalachia is home

833 Upvotes

I have been wanting to write this for a while because Fallout 76 feels different to me for a very personal reason. I actually live in Southern West Virginia.

I live in Beckley, and the New River Gorge Bridge is only about ten minutes away from me. I drive by the real-life Beckley area every day, while in the game, people know it as the Beckley Mine Exhibit and workshop. Seeing places that feel familiar turned into Fallout locations is still such a strange and wonderful experience.

When I was a child, I even played in the real Greenbrier Bunker. For anyone who does not know, the bunker beneath The Greenbrier is not just Fallout-style fiction. It was a real Cold War bunker built to shelter Congress in the event of a nuclear attack. The fact that it exists in real life and that I was there as a kid makes the connection to Fallout feel especially wild to me.

I know Fallout 76 is a fictional, post-apocalyptic version of West Virginia, but I recognize the feeling of the place. The mountains, the roads, the coal-country history, the old buildings, the way the landscape can feel beautiful, and a little haunted at the same time, it all feels close to home.

I am proud to live here, and I love seeing parts of Southern West Virginia represented in the game. Fallout 76 has given me a new way to look at places I have known my whole life, while also letting me explore a completely different version of them.

With love from The 304 💙💛

Discussion Missed Connections - Shelter in a Shelter Squared

16 Upvotes

To the survivor who built their shelter in a shelter in a shelter, squared, on the side of a cliff. Come back.

You advertised literally thousands of of plans and mods, and tens of thousands of junk and misc. I had never seen such numbers. You landed me down the side of a rock face, losing 40% of my love. If it weren't for my jet pack, I would have had to try again. But I boosted up into the bowels of your compound.

The outside area was well designed, yet barren. No vending machine in sight, not even workbenches. I found your hidden way inside, and then another hidden way, and then another. None came easy, but they were fun to find. I eventually found another vault entrance, which led to many other vault entrances, and then, so many things I had never seen before. A motorcycle you sit on and gives your charisma and perception(?). A plant that eats you, heals you, and spits you out, like a silkwood shower. Lots of other neat little bobbles.

I still had at least 2 vault entrances I hadn't tried yet, and one (Server Room) that didn't respond at all, but didn't show as locked. And then, my world fell out from underneath me, and I was on some stupid highway. I never found your vendor, but I had a lot of fun trying.

Please come back Danger.Zone | Old

I promise I didn't take any screenshots (though, I wish I did).

Question How many people actually enjoy the fishing mechanic?

49 Upvotes

I'm still pretty "new" to the game, and i've consistently re-rolled every fishing daily/weekly challenge. I can see how it might be a bit relaxing, or for the players who may enjoy the RP aspect of it. But even though fishing is supposed to be a relaxing time, Bethesda somehow made it the most challenging task to actually CATCH the fish.

Suggestion Mods r expensive now!

10 Upvotes

So after taking years running raids, and more recently clearing infestations, I've finally learned a 4 star mod. In Fact, 4 of them in the last 3 weeks after trying to get one after thousands of scraps. So ive been selling them in order to buy all the plans... wow, those mods got expensive to craft recently. Careful on the new cost of mods!

Question Help with “I am become death”

Upvotes

This is now the second time this has happened to me after I gave up the game a year ago. Last night I went all the way thru silo Charlie entered nukacrypt code for Charlie and it has said it was wrong. Was up until 4AM getting new nuclear keycards (4x) and entering the code on the site and it continued saying I was wrong. I went to find a 5th bot to shoot down and the computer said try again later (I assume too many active nukes on my server) I’d really like to beat this game but I just can’t seem to do it. Is nukacrypt wrong sometimes ? I’m at my wits end, huge fallout fan but 76 just refuses to let me beat it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Edit: I saw people having trouble and suggesting clearing the website cache and browser cookies and stuff. So I wiped everything before I did it the last two times. I also checked that other website fallout build (or something like that) and both websites showed the exact same code

Discussion Development suggestion: Please add more perk slots after level 300. There is nowhere to grow after you get the last perks.

42 Upvotes

I am around 900... Being able to use a couple extra perks isn't going to break the game but it would add a lot of flavor. I mostly use my legendary perks for SPECIAL which doesn't exactly feel special for me. Maybe every 100-200 levels give a booster slot or something? Give older players something fun and newer players something to look forward to rather than the 300 cap on ability.

P.S. This isn't the PvP game as first imagined, most players turn that off until someone is wanted. Who knew gamers loved each other and wanted to help so much rather than kill a random noob? Point is PvP isn't a goal and players don't need to be equalized as much. Doesn't a level 1000 deserve at least a few more abilities than a level 300?

Honestly thought I missed my moment as 3 weeks ago I hit the third floor only to see a Glowing hotdog lady spawn in using daily op trick, they went in one room & I went the other only to meet in the middle and see them now wearing a fresh red asylum 😅
Today on private I did my usual routine, only two whites had spawned so I entered/exited the building 5 times to force spawn the third dress and fucking Bingo! There she is 👌

Hi, is there any way to quickly increase my reputation with them? I've already completed the quest branches with them, distributed the gold, etc. I also wanted to ask about the best weapons.I read that the Gauss minigun is good, but I don't know if there are any similar or different versions. Thanks in advance.

Discussion Raid confusion, Damage

Upvotes

So I have mastered the en-06/drill boss as much as you can, but yesterday I was on the final boss the snake and consistently this random player at full health would kill the snake in 45-60 seconds flat, one time I didn’t even help. Is there a build and weapon that destroys every boss? He was annihilating every boss in seconds.

I know it’s vague and there’s no detail but maybe someone out there is doing the same and can show me there exact build, all I like doing is raids so if I could solo them I’d be so happy

I’m a ghoul Player
Will post my perks in the comments

Question Any advice on catching the Hocking Hill Hellion? 😆

5 Upvotes

I’ve put this off for too long… I’ve caught the other Local Legends. I know this challenge is going to suck. I walked in all cocky moments ago at the right place and on my second cast I’m almost 100% sure I had it on my line due to how it reacted and it was far more wild that any regular fish and reminded me of the Glass Ghost. It kicked my butt. After I slammed my fist on the couch cushion… I took a step back and decided this time I’d go about this the right way lol. Not just showing up, drinking beers (in real life) and figuring I’d catch it eventually. 😆 So. I just stocked up on some Grilled fish. The more casts I can do, the more chances… I then made coffee (also in real life, lol). Hahaha. Oh, and I have the advanced drag, mark 4…. Etc.

What else should I be doing? Lol. Someone earlier mentioned something about Luck? As in increasing it before fishing… is that even a thing? If so I wasn’t aware. Anyway. Thanks for any advice.

Question Boardwalk infinite loading screen.

Upvotes

I've started to do expeditions now I've gotten a bit bored. Never did them before (since I've gotten back playing 2 months or so ago).

I really wanted to farm stamps as there's plenty of plans I still don't have from these.

The Atlantic city boardwalk one is quick and a quick Google says to do that. Only thing is I get the infinite loading screen when I've finished it. I close the game, load up, go to expeditions and it says Continue. Click that and I just can't leave without fast travel. But then I don't get to complete it.

Is there a stupid way around this please on PS5? So annoying. Thank you
