We've now finished releasing today's hotfix across all of our servers and we've begun re-enabling Fasnacht Parade in-game.
Please note: Fasnacht decorations should now be appearing in Helvetia, and the first run of the Fasnacht Parade event will begin about an hour from now, at 2 p.m. ET.
Thank you for your patience, and we hope you have a blast during Fasnacht until the event comes to an end on June 9.
Hi again,
As a further update on this: Fasnacht is not currently available for play at this time. However, we are actively working behind-the-scenes and will let you know just as soon as our hotfix is live in-game. Stay tuned for more details and thanks for your continued patience!

Hi everyone,
We’d like to share an update with you on the status of Fasnacht Parade, and what we’re doing to get the event back up and running.
Shortly after we enabled Fasnacht Parade yesterday, we began receiving reports that critters were not spawning correctly ...
Read moreHello everyone,
Unfortunately, due to the issue being reported here that is preventing critter spawns during certain objectives, we are going to disable Fasnacht Parade until we can implement a fix. We will reschedule the event once we have the fix ready to go. Keep an eye on this thread in our forums for updates as soon as we have new information to share.
Apologies for the delay, and thank you for your patience. We will let you know when we have new dates for Fasnacht.
Hi everyone, thank you for your reports. Unfortunately, we needed to disable Fasnacht Parade while we investigate a fix for this issue. We will reschedule it for a later date, and you can check this thread in our forums for updated information as soon as we have it. We plan to bring Fasnacht back as soon as possible once the fix is ready and we apologize for the delay.
From the looks of it, seems like vending should be back up after this :)
We're still actively working on the Vending Machine and Display Case issue, so they will remain disabled after maintenance today. We want to release that fix as soon as we possibly can, and we will hotfix once it is ready to go.
We’re releasing Update 19 for Fallout 76 today, which introduces Ally Customization, includes new and returning events, updates for automatic item naming, backpack skin improvements, and new limited-time Nuclear Winter Challenges and cosmetic rewards. We’ve also addressed a wide variety of bugs, including many issues reported by the community.
Update 2: That's a wrap! Thank you so much for all of your questions and comments. We had a great time and grateful for all the thoughtful messages. We would love to come back in the future to do this again. Until then, thanks again and see you in Wastelanders!
Hello again, r/fo76!
Today we’re trying something new and holding an Ask Us Anything on Wastelanders with Project Lead, Jeff Gardiner (u/jrg993) and Lead Designer, Ferret Baudoin (u/BGSFerret).
Wastelanders launched last week and we’ve been having a blast seeing the screenshots you have been sharing and hearing all about your adventures.
Starting at 11:30am Eastern (about 30 mins), we’d love to chat with you, answer your questions, and hear stories of your travels throughout Appalachia.
Thanks for having us and please, ask us what you want to know about Wastelanders!
Read moreThank you for your concerns about these issues, everyone. We share them too, and we are actively investigating everything outlined in this thread, as well as other reports we’ve received here, on our own forums, or through support tickets. We have commented in a few previous threads about some of these issues. However, even though we can’t respond to everything, each report, video, and screenshot of an issue that you share with us helps us narrow in on fixes.
In our next hotfix, we are planning to include a fix for the issue where NPCs can occasionally take a player’s weapon when they die. The remaining issues mentioned in this thread are all still active investigations, and we want to resolve them as soon as possible. If they can be addressed in time for our next hotfix, we will definitely include them.
We don’t have an exact timing to share on that hotfix just yet, but we will let you know as soon as we do.
Read moreHello again r/fo76,
We wanted to take a moment to recognize all the incredible members of this sub. The time and passion you've invested into Fallout 76 has really kept us and the game going.
We poured a lot into Wastelanders, not just the content, but all the little things we hope make your core experience better, from interface issues to optimizations and lighting. Seeing all your positive posts and comments has made all that time worth it.
Thanks again for sticking with us and the game. We can’t express our gratitude enough.
More to come!

Read moreWelcome to Wastelanders, our biggest update for Fallout 76 yet! It brings an entirely new main story, including many quests to the game, as well as plenty of people to meet in the form of human NPCs. It also adds a dialogue system, NPC Factions, Allies for your C.A.M.P., new events, daily quests, weapons, armors, enemies, and much more to the game. Read on for an overview of each of these additions, as well as other improvements and bug fixes coming with today’s update.
Thank you to everyone who brought this to our attention. The AstroTurf flooring was only intended to be available as part of Sports Week with our most recent Atomic Shop update. We want to make this right, and we are currently planning to refund the difference in Atoms for those of you who purchased it at full price last week.
If you purchased this item last week at full price, please keep an eye out for an email from our Customer Support team early next week.
We are actively working on a fix for the issue that can cause the friends list to appear blank, and hope to have it released as soon as possible. Once we have additional details to share, we will let you know. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you in the meantime.
Thank you all for your reports of this issue this week.
We’re releasing a small update for Fallout 76 in order to make some behind-the-scenes preparations for the upcoming Wastelanders update. Like our previous patch in January, we’re also fixing a few bugs that were safe to implement without disrupting our work on Wastelanders. Read on to catch the patch notes for today’s update.
Download sizes for this update will be around 6 GB for consoles and under 1 GB for PC.
It's curious to me that Fasnacht has yet to be mentioned.
This seems like a really good time to have it, seeing as Wastelanders was pushed off to early April and we're looking at a month (really, in addition to the past two months) of what's basically been a holding pattern.
We're definitely planning to bring Fasnacht back again this year!
We've seen how much excitement there is in the community for the Fasnacht Seasonal Event to make a comeback. While this event was lots of fun the last time it was available, there were also several things we wanted to improve before it returns. The shift of Wastelanders release into 2020 also meant that we had to move these changes around. As a result, Fasnacht is going to be available later than it was last year, but it should be a more enjoyable experience when it returns. We can't wait to parade around Helvetia with you all again this year, and we will have more details to share with you on the date soon.
Read moreCheck your character selection screen. You might have a second version (the older rolled back character) as well as your newer one there. It's what they did last time people lost their characters. If so, you could trade over the gear from your old character to your new one using a friend or private server
Yes, what /u/Iron_thumbs posted is correct. If it looks like your character was rolled back after joining a world, log out to the character screen and then select the character without a number at the end of its name. Further details should be coming to players soon via email.
Today, we’re releasing a new update for Fallout 76 in order to make some behind-the-scenes adjustments for the base game in preparation for our upcoming Wastelanders update. We’re also fixing a few bugs that were safe to implement without disrupting our work on Wastelanders.
We are still working full-steam-ahead on the Wastelanders update, and when it is released later this quarter, it will contain plenty of new content for you to explore and conquer, as well as a large wave of bug fixes for the base game.
Read on to catch the patch notes for today’s update.
Download sizes for this update will be around 2.5 GB for consoles and under 1 GB for PC.
Hi everyone,
We are investigating reports of a PC-only exploit that could be abused by cheaters, which may have resulted in a few players losing items that their characters had equipped. We have been actively working toward a solution for this and have a fix that we are currently evaluating for release today.
While we’ve determined that only a small number of characters have been negatively affected, we are taking this very seriously and resolving this is currently our top priority.
We would like to apologize to those of you who were impacted by this exploit. We want to make this right, and we are currently looking into ways we may be able to compensate you. If you believe you have been affected, please let us know by submitting a ticket to our Customer Support team.
As mentioned above, this issue only affects PC, and we are currently planning to bring the PC version of the game offline today to release a fix. We will let you know as soon as we are ready to begin maintenance.

Read moreWe are actively working to address the reload issue as soon as we possibly can. Currently, we are looking to revert the original Patch 16 change that was intended to fix the +250 Damage Resist While Reloading issue, which as some of you have already mentioned, is the source for this new bug. Today's Inside the Vault will also have information on this, and we will have more details to share on our timing for reverting the fix soon--likely today.
Thank you for your reports of reloading affecting bonuses provided by Armor. We are investigating this now, and we will let you know as soon as we have more information to share.
