The survival MMO Fallout 76 has disappointed fans with the recent Patch 11 and introduced many annoying bugs into the game. The developers want to address this quickly, but so far they have had little success. Fortunately, there is soon going to be a big barbecue party that everyone is looking forward to.
What is the problem with Patch 11? The latest patch for Fallout 76 has caused discontent among fans. Numerous bugs and issues have entered the game. The community was bitterly disappointed and even pleaded with Bethesda to please include them in the quality management process in the future by making the new updates available to all players on a test server beforehand.
The developers have not confirmed this yet, but they want to listen more to the community and are already working on hotfixes.
Developers promise quick help, but it’s not quite working yet
What has already been done: At the time of this news, the developers have already deployed a hotfix that is supposed to solve a particularly annoying issue: Legendary enemies often do not drop legendary loot. Unfortunately, this has still not been completely fixed.
Even though some players seem to have had luck, many still did not receive the loot they deserved. Others even report that no legendary monsters appear at all anymore.
It seems that Bethesda is still not quite finished with the bug fixing work.
The developers want to change the following: Other issues that the developers want to address as quickly as possible include:
- Enemies that are not legendary but appear as legendary should no longer occur.
- Missing parts of power armors should reappear.
- Bugs in events and daily quests should be fixed.
When do the developers plan to implement all this? Bethesda only stated on the official page that they are working through the list as quickly as possible and will address the issues with the next patch. They did not provide a specific date.
Big barbecue “Meat Week” makes everyone happy
What is Meat Week? Better than the faulty or still non-existent bug fixes, players welcomed the announcement of the upcoming “Meat Week”. This is a big event in the Fallout world where a super mutant named Grahm fires up the grill and cooks tons of meat.
Additionally, there are two repeatable events:
- One-A-Bite: Every 15 minutes you can participate in this event. The goal is to hunt special animals and bring their meat to Grahm for the grill. This brings experience points, caps, and legendary items.
- Grahm’s Meat Munch: This event starts every hour. Here you won’t need weapons, but you have to help Grahm keep his big barbecue party running. You need to clean up trash, feed Chally the moo cow, and extinguish fires. The better everything goes, the more loot you will get.
When does the fun start? The party is supposed to kick off on July 30, 2019, and last for a week.
Update: In a post about a new hotfix for Fallout 76, Bethesda announced that the party will be postponed and will probably start on August 1.
This is how fans react to the barbecue party: Unlike the patch issues, fans seem to be in a better mood here:
- “That sounds great, I can’t wait!”
- “Events with Grahm? I’m in!”
- “I’m already so excited about Meat Week. An event centered around Grahm is already a hit for me.”
Other players are a bit more cynical and doubt that Bethesda will offer suitable loot for the event.
