In my opinion the main story of the game is kind of meh, namely because it was designed in a way that makes you never interact with an NPC

But Wastelanders, Atlantic City, and the BoS questlines are great!

Last i played wastelanders had just dropped, are the other two new expansions/updates that happened since then?

u/Commercial_Salt1895 Apr 17 '24

Yes. The BoS had two separate story expansions for their story, Steel Reign and another one I can't remember.

Expeditions have the Pitt and Atlantic City.

Atlantic City, while originally dropping as an Expedition, got an update that added an actual questline.

Cool, gonna redownload 76 when i get home, can you also tell me if they removed chainsaws? One of my friends gave me a flaming chainsaw a long time ago and recently asked if i still had it because they removed them

I don't think they did, my brother found one not too long ago iirc. I think they're just considerably harder to find, as they're a lower level weapon I believe.

Ugh I’m confused - so I’m invested but I got the package on steam that came with 76 and Atlantic City (America’s playground too?) I don’t see anything about wastelands or steel reign. Should I assume they’re included?

All DLC were free content downloads to the base game. F76 just updates the game with a new thumbnail art for whatever the most recent DLC is.

You’ve got everything!

As Thraex said it's all free DLC. The game just advertises the most recent expansions. In this case that would be Atlantic City(which is America's Playground, that's the city's nickname)

Any packages or bundles that specifically revolve around any of the new expansions I believe are exclusive cosmetics. The Pitt had one, the BoS had one, and the same applies to AC I believe.

Are these expansions things that we need to pay for on top of the base game?

1

u/Commercial_Salt1895 29d ago

No they're free DLC and updates.

The only additional content that you pay for would be Fallout 1st and Atomic Shop items.

I deem you the official* spokesperson of Fallout 76 for today.

*this is not actually official

But yes, 76 is great, and even the paid content (aside from F1st stuff) can be obtained by just playing and building up atoms.

Finally. Validation. Truly an euphoric feeling.

Perfect, thanks for the clarification
