![]() ![]() ![]() In many other MMOs, including Bethesda’s own Elder Scrolls Online, your character’s display name is decided by your own creativity, not your account settings. However, whatever creative, meaningful, lore-inspired name you give your character will only be visible to you and that Gamertag or username you hurriedly decided upon will be how the multitudes of online denizens know you. The name you decide on for your character cannot be changed later in the game. ![]() Your character’s appearance, including height and weight, can be changed at any point during Fallout 76 from the main menu. One fix for this would be to add text chat! Hopefully we’ll see that, and more mic awareness with the final release. In Fallout 76, teammates can often be spread far and wide across the map while still being able to interact, fast travel to each other, and access each other’s XP and quests– which is really cool! However, when you’re grouped, every other non-group player you encounter will not be able to communicate with you in any way (beyond the very limited emotes). Whenever you’re in a group, which is common, there is only group-chat– meaning you can no longer speak to any other players outside of your squad. Making push-to-talk not the default mic setting is a small fix to expect before the full release (c’mon Bethesda you got this!), but there’s another issue with communication in Fallout 76. It was a lot of cursing about the menus, and then more cursing about the player’s momentary inability to find the button he was looking for.įallout 76 has a proximity chat system, push to talk is not enabled by default, and a surprising number of people, it seems, have very little awareness of when their voice is being recorded. ![]() It wasn’t endearing or atmosphere-building chatter either. My very first moments in Fallout 76 were filled with the unintentionally audible chatter of my nearby Vault-mate. Hines has given both a definite yes and a definite maybe on Twitter, and his tweets are getting more and more inconclusive as we near November 14th. Pete Hines (Bethesda’s senior VP of marketing) has given conflicting reports on whether the limit of the Stash Box in Fallout 76 will be increased come the full launch of the game. The stash limit is a serious bottleneck in a primary gameplay loop, and it makes a core mechanic of the game tedious and cumbersome. You need to collect materials to build things, and you need to build things to collect materials– not to mention saving cool items you find until you’re the right level to use them. Stash Boxes fill up so fast because collecting lots and lots of things is a huge part of Fallout 76. 400 pounds might sound like a lot but it adds up really quickly– even for a casual (non-hoarder) player who keeps only a few useful items and supplies on hand. Stash Boxes in Fallout 76 function just like Ender Chests in Minecraft, except for the problematic fact that they only have a 400lb limit currently in the BETA.Ĭalls to Bethesda to raise the storage limit of Stash Boxes is one of the most upvoted topics on the official Fallout 76 subreddit (even with the many duplicate posts). A new feature in Fallout 76 is the “Stash Box”: a personal storage container that’s only accessible by your character at a variety of locations throughout the world. ![]()
