A player has found a way to stack foundations in their C.A.M.P. in Fallout 76. This is actually not intended, but some players have followed suit and even built giant pyramids with it. Even Bethesda is amazed.
On Reddit a post has surfaced, in which the user pandaru_express showcases their camp. The special thing about their C.A.M.P. is that it was built in the style of an Inca pyramid, which is actually not possible with the available parts in Fallout 76.
pandaru_express used a technique to stack specific foundations. As seen in the picture, concrete foundations form the blocks of the pyramid, with steps made from simple stairs.
At the top, pandaru_express has set up a small altar surrounded by torches. Burning trash cans light the way up. Even the interior is furnished and decorated.
How do you actually build pyramids in Fallout 76?
This is how the trick works: The YouTuber Monsterbird Nation has shown in a video how it is possible to stack foundations. This exploits what appears to be an unintended bug that allows the parts to connect.
He first places foundations together that make up the ground. Then he sets up stairs that face each other and must have at least two parts distance at the top. To one of these stairs, he attaches two half ceilings.
A campfire is placed on these ceilings so that it protrudes slightly over the edge. Now a new foundation can be placed on the ceiling, standing directly on the lower foundation.
By picking up and placing the campfire and the stairs again, more foundations can be built next to or above each other.
Bethesda finds the pyramid cool: In the Reddit thread from pandaru_express, even an official employee from Bethesda commented. He stated:
!!! This is amazing!!!
The reaction surprised the community given the fact that the pyramid was created through a glitch or exploit. Apparently, this glitch is considered not too serious.
Players are now hopeful that Bethesda will implement a feature that allows foundations to be stacked by default. As the pyramid shows, really cool structures are possible this way. Furthermore, people wish for a larger building budget – or even the ability to build entire cities.
Since it is still unclear how Bethesda will handle the glitch, we advise against recreating such structures at the moment.
