Those of you who'd like to know what the developers have in store for Fallout 76, the long-running post-apocalyptic series' multiplayer-focused survival spin-off, should watch the “What's Next for Fallout 76” panel recorded last weekend during QuakeCon 2019. Here it is:
And if you're more interested in a quick summary, you should instead check out PC Gamer's articles that offer a recap of the major talking points. Among those you can find an update on Fallout 76's raids, a few paragraphs about a new map coming to the game in September, some news about the game's private servers, and some additional info about its upcoming NPC interactions. A snippet from the latter article:
"Also, remember this isn't the Fallout 4 dialogue system, said project lead Jeff Gardiner during the Fallout 76 panel discussion. "This is more like Fallout 3, where you have a list of stuff..."
Here, Gardiner paused and laughed due to the sudden burst of applause from the audience—who clearly prefer Fallout 3 to Fallout 4. "So you'll have a list of things, and you're not just limited to those generic options," Gardiner finished.
We also learned that in addition to the two rival factions of the settlers and the raiders, there will be sub-factions in Wastelanders. We didn't hear much about the sub-factions, except that one include a cult of Mothman worshippers. I'm definitely interested in meeting them.
