Hi,

I'm finishing a new cool map for Knock'Em Out that will be released this next week if everything goes as planned.

I also plan to add a new set of costumes based on the theme of the new map.
I'm also reading feedback from the users so I'll try to improve some aspects of the gameplay to make it feel better.

If you find any bug, feel free to report it on Steam or in my discord (I'm very active there).

Stay tuned for more updates, see you soon!

Welcome to Update #74 where everyone is just suddenly a lot more stylish and good looking! Today, we've got a big visual upgrade to the material and texture stack for faces, fixes for your Stressed out Hacker and an unwinding of a bug that was reading Contact Power Levels as one big upgrade instead of pinning the upgrades to each individual Contact.

Our next major roadmap milestone is chewing up the majority of the team's time and none of that work can be released until base building is ready. But it is coming closer by the day now! Between now and base building, we'll have a series of additional updates with new heists and new recruits as we prep that colossal release for prime time.

If you like the pace of updates, continual improvements and the direction we are heading with Cyber Knights please take a moment to leave a review 👍 and help us continue this frantic and exciting pace of Early Access!


With Update #74, we've completed a major upgrade to the detail and quality of all character face textures in the game. This upgrade has a number of pieces that come together to form the look, including (1) increasing the texture quality of all faces, (2) adding subsurface detail and roughness to the faces to help them act more like real skin (3) adding small shadows to all faces to help highlight areas and prevent the face from feeling flat (4) adding a new Face Details cosmetic choice that will expand with more types of facial detail options.

The results feel great! The results speak for themselves. Without leaving behind the unique style that we set out to hit for Cyber Knights: Flashpoint, we've still achieved a big upgrade here.


This one follows on the big lighting engine update as one of the other highest priority and most discussed visual upgrades from the game. We've heard so much about the character look from both players who are playing Cyber Knights: Flashpoint and those who are taking a look from a distance.



This upgrade affects characters in all cases which they appear, making improved headshots as well as making them look cooler in dialog and on missions.

To make changing skin color easier, we've moved it be an option of the Face selection and the new Face Details option has 2 choices within it right now - smooth skin and freckled skin, but this category has a lot of cool potential to include scars, burns and more.



We also added 2 new facial hair options giving you some variations of a lighter, unshaven look. The classic 5'oclock shadow is looking good!

A few updates ago, we punched up the Stress generation capabilities of the matrix, high damage lethal feedback and also Dumpshock. We've heard a lot of feedback that we went overboard and your Hacker's rapidly skyrocketed to the most Stressed out team members. This was related to (1) issues with how Lethal Damage was calculated an passed to the Stress generator before being blunted by your Deck's defenses and (2) Dumpshock just granting 50% too much Stress.

Both are resolved in this update and should be significantly more inline with the Stress that other team are suffering for their job as part of the heist team.

Sorry for the Stressed out Hackers, they will recover in time! Try to use a Hype Limit Break or two to get them back on track.


Thanks to great F10s, we found and fixed a bug where any Power Level increase to one Contact was actually a Power Level increase to all Contacts! This was causing the entire Contact list to end up with 10+ Power Level after a little while.

Notably, this is not a form of data corruption or loss, this was just a bad query to the saved game that would read all Power Level increases to any Contact when asking for those of a specific Contact :sweat: so you'll see your games immediately snap back to the right values as Update #74 lands.

This is fixed just in time for the upcoming Exposure and Influence LImit Breaks.

We've made a few small fixes to Carnivore, including swapping the objectives for the extraction points which were switched. Thanks to everyone putting in F10s!

Enjoy the new update, mercs! We'll see you in a few days with more :D



- Improved all face textures, detail and roughness to look less plastic and just better
- Added new appearance option "Skin Detail" - current options for smooth and freckled skin with more coming
- Moved skin color option under face for much easier selection when modifying appearance
- Reduced Stress caused by hard disconnect in the Matrix by 50%
- Fixed issue with previewing short beards just disappearing constantly
- Fixed issues where sometimes character or contact eyes would be a dead gray
- Fixed bug where each Contact's Power Level was calculated by summing all bonuses to all Contact Power Levels (oops!)
- Fixed issue where extraction objectives in second stage of Carnivore were switched
- Fixed bug listing the wrong Trait level after Hype Limit Break mutation (1 instead of 2)
- Improved performance in appearance tab

After dealing with the Chaos Insurgency in Act 2, the area has become infested with SCP-337! Players must take on the daunting task of defeating these monsters and destroying their spore nests to clear the canyon and restore safety to the region.



We’ve added a feature that automatically sorts items by their usefulness, making inventory management easier and more intuitive.

We’ve fixed the issue where the inventory screen would move unintentionally while dragging items, ensuring a smoother interface interaction.

We've modified a fight to feature SCP-377, which now not only enhances the encounter but also unlocks an additional mission for players to tackle.



This is just the first of many side missions we are planning to introduce. We are already working on more and invite you to join our Discord server where we post the most current progress updates.

Attention, freelancers!

Here is the next update for the game. Check out the full change log below!

*Please note that these changes are not in any particular order.*



Stay Alert. Stay Armed. Stay Alive. Don't lose your humanity.

That's all for now, enjoy!

Two updates in a short period of time? I think I'm getting the hang of this game development thing.

In all seriousness, there's a whole lot of content to go over today, so let's get started.

Here are the bugs I fixed while working on the new maps for the update:

• The debug trigger linked to 0 on the Number Pad has been removed, so players won't accidentally destroy hours of progress while playing Reconquista.
  
• Region names during the selection process should no longer be bugged in the menu. So no more weird names that put Georgia in South America.
  
• The city of Lima on the map "Peru" has been removed due to difficulties drawing the graphics for it.

The big part of this free update is the addition of eight new maps to play on. Everything from Texas to California to New England to the Midwest.

Since America is, well, America, these maps can have up to 30 Regions for you to liberate.

Here's a quick preview of these new maps:









Yeah, I mean it.


One of the big reasons I'm making this a major update is to announce the new campaign mode for Tyrannis, called "The Revolution." In it, players will be tasked with freeing the Americas, as in all of the Americas, from dictatorial control.

We're talking, 27 Areas for you to liberate from pole to frozen pole.

Now, I can't say too much, but it's going to be a unique campaign that combines roguelike mechanics with turn-based grand strategy gameplay in what might, quite possibly, be the first of its kind.

As much as I hate to do it, I'll be increasing Tyrannis' price from $5.00 to $10.00 upon the launch of "The Revolution" Update.

While I know price increases aren't the most popular thing, I think the addition of nine new maps this year, plus the new rogue-lite campaign, are enough to justify the increase.

That, and I got scammed out of about $100 by a company claiming to be the people I needed to pay to renew my Sole Proprietorship requirements with.

But for what it's worth, I'll only increase the price once the new campaign is added, so you probably have until June to buy it at the lower price.


Anyways, that'll do it for this new update. Tyrannis' new campaign, "The Revolution," will hopefully be out by June, at the latest.

Welcome to Inside the Vault!

This week we have some exciting news to share about our next major update which expands our map deep into the wooded heartland of Skyline Valley!

Starting today, Vault Dwellers on Steam will be able to start testing this new update in our Public Test Server (PTS) and providing feedback on their experience in our community Discord (which you should join to stay up-to-date on all Fallout 76 news).

Read on to learn more about what’s currently being tested.


The PTS for the Skyline Valley update will happen in two parts, Part 1 launches this afternoon and will allow you to get acquainted with the new region, participate in a public event, and stake your claim on the land by placing down C.A.M.P.s. Part 2 will release in May and will introduce you to the all-new main questline.

The new public event that you will be testing is called Dangerous Pastimes. In this event, you will help thrill-seeking storm chasers get the best picture of the storm by protecting them from the elements, the Lost, and nearby Charged creatures.

To help you plan around what to test, we’ve prepared a special outline of when events will be happening throughout the PTS period. We invite you to join and provide feedback on these events.

Public Event Testing Schedule (Please Note: These Dates Are Subject to Change)

April 18

• Once PTS is open, the new public event, Dangerous Pastimes, will be running every 20 minutes.

April 27

• Dangerous Pastimes event will be replaced by Fasnacht as we test some changes around the event. Primarily, the changes will be focused on the performance and pacing of the event. Fasnacht will be running at the top of the hour.

April 29

• Dangerous Pastimes replaces Fasnacht.

Along with testing the public events, we want to specifically request that you all nuke the region while playing. Maybe something will happen, maybe nothing. Probably nothing... right?

Keep an eye on our Discord for updates on when all these events are active and for feedback threads where you can share all of your thoughts and report issues you may run into.


Starting with the Skyline Valley Update, we are beginning a series of combat updates that are aimed to improve your experience. Our goal is for these changes to have positive effects on combat throughout the game. These will be tested during PTS.

To help set expectations, we expect these changes to take effect in a variety of places (Weapons, Creatures, etc.) across multiple patches. Giving you all a lot of time to provide feedback on the adjustments being made to ensure we’re moving in a positive direction.

To start things off, we’re adjusting the following creatures:

• Angler
  
• Cave Cricket
  
• Floaters
  
• Gulper
  
• Mutant Hound
  
• Protectron

We have also improved how we calculate the falloff for weapon damage at range. We expect this to smooth out the falloff damage for weapons that historically lost most of their damage right away. All ranged weapons benefit from this, but it should be most visible with Shotguns and Pipe Guns, as well as when fighting larger creatures such as Deathclaws.


All players who own a copy of Fallout 76 on Steam can participate in our PTS. Please note that progress from the PTS does not carry over into the live game. The Atomic Shop is also disabled during this testing period.

To install the PTS, open your Steam library, and install “Fallout 76 Public Test Server”.
