Love FO76 1st. Love the game and community. BUT! FO is resource collecting game which Bethesda have bottle necked stash for cash. Im often dumping resources. If item are on display, such as armour on mannequins, the weight should be removed from your junk box. Ammo storage box is a blessing.

[@kaydenfraser9739]

I think if it’s in your vendor or like on a gun wall or anything like the power armor display should be removed and have those displays have a max weight of like 25 for weapons 50 for the power armor displays

[@paulharris7660]

@@kaydenfraser9739 agree.

My take on Fallout 1st: Too expensive overall and almost necessary to keep playing past the first portion of the game (up to level 30). While the benefits are quite good, the game feels like it has a chokehold on you for stocking up on supplies, yet I still find myself struggling with certain supplies (which I am actively fixing). I've came to the point where it is beneficial for me to ignore essentially every single heavy weapon I come across, even with having almost perk Card in Strength to reduce weight and increase my carry capacity. It makes the game very frustrating at certain points because I feel like I'm missing out on the more fun gear, just to make sure I can keep my materials. Given the fact this IS a PAID game, I feel like the subscription should be at most a monthly subscription at $7.50 ($87.50 a year) or yearly at $72 (6$ a month), or somewhere in that ballpark. These benefits feel like something that should be in the game from the start, or something similar. Maybe a "Scrap Box" with a set amount of storage that you can upgrade to hold more, or instead buy Fallout 1st to get unlimited. If Fallout 76 was Free-To-Play, I'd understand the price, and honestly it would deserve more benefits, but the entirety of the subscription, from the price to the benefits, falls into a gray area from my point of view. It feels like a solution to a problem that was caused on purpose rather than an upgrade, and the Atoms in the deal seem to just be there to inflate the cost of it. For the added free content, while I do appreciate it, I feel like the Atomic Shop already is a great monetization source to make up for that. I know things can't change to any measurable degree, especially years down the line, but I feel like it all should've been handled much much differently from the start.

I'm a player with over 4k hours in the game and have been playing since day one, and my wife has about 1500. We both do FO1, for a few reasons. The main one of course is to have that extra scrap and ammo space. It's an absolute necessity. A big reason, though, is that we both adore the game, in spite of the issues it occasionally has. We're happy to give support in some kind of way to keep it going and help fund further development in it. The fact it comes with as many bonuses as it does just adds to the creamy filling.

[@Darkfae83]

I would love more stash space but , i get why there isnt. Maybe another storage for items that dont have metadata. Like a closet for clothes / costumes

[@P3nAlPineapple]

Same here!! I would love more stash space 👀

[@The_dodger00]

Without Fallout first, I'd be lost. I remember the days of stash being 400 and struggling to collect items, having hardly no bullets because of the weight. Not able to really collect much, as your carry weight is rubbish, and the stash box at the time couldn't hold much. Now I'm a junk hoarder. Thanks to the scrap box, I can collect more and more. And never run out. But I'm a charitable person and give junk to low levels, as we've all been there at some point. It's the same now with the ammo box, I'm now not bogged down with bullets and can store all that I don't use. But again there, I make a lot of bullets and give to others, as I like to help. Any unused ammo collected can be sold in the vending or saved up and given to newbies. The tent is a godsend. And now some have a tinker bench, meaning can scrap any weapons picked up, dump scra in the scap box, and save a few legendaries in the stash box. If you have any meat, you can cook it at the tent/shelter thingy (technical term) and then able to just go about what you need to do to keep the wasteland clean. I save up my atoms, as most bundles in the Atomic Shop go for 1800, and I ain't buying atoms (I'm a Yorkshireman, and we are known for being tight). So I personally I do think Fallout 1st is value for money...

[@P3nAlPineapple]

Yeah back in the day with 400 pounds of stash it was incredibly difficult to hold onto things that you wanted to keep and even to this day with 1200 pounds I feel the same way 😅 The scrapbox has definitely helped with that issue though and I feel just with that feature by itself , you're already getting an awesome deal! but as you said regarding the atoms , you're basically getting your money's worth in return to spend on whatever you want in the game and that's a nice option to have!

[@kennethgrey7829]

They should just give the regular box more space

[@tom2gunzbombadil689]

Imho its a MUST HAVE. I played 2 weeks or so without it n 90% of that time was spent in my stash box running numbers. Now arguing it should be free is a valid point but it is what it is.

[@Denis-ye1bz]

Stopped playing after 2 months because got tired of inventory management and lack of space. With unlimited scrap and ammo box I could play longer, but it doesn't worth 120 euro.

[@Coconut.]

i personally buy fallout 1st every few moths as i dont play the entire time and i usually get it to where i can have it stretch into 2 season scoreboards

[@dpellek74]

1st is worth it for sure. But. They should make it 9.99 i think. Keep it at just under 10. I think a lot more ppl would sign up.

[@wardenofwisps442]

I mean as mentioned but there should be a apparel box with separate weight and the fridge to be separate from stash box lol

[@dpellek74]

But they need to raise up the stash max number 1200 is way too low. Make it a nice 2000.

[@HuiHaiZ]

Nice video overall. To me personally it is worth because: 1. Scrapbox (im hoarder) 2. Private World 3. Survival tent 4. 1650 Atoms 5. Custom world 6. all other like discounts, rewards etc But i can see why some people don't pay for it/ don't find it worth the price.

[@Snakepit_Media]

I'd get fallout 1st, but to get it for a year I have to pay 100 dollars So, no thanks-

[@SheLuvssBlaze]

I don’t agree with scrap box cause other mmos (specifically ESO) does basically the same thing where crafting mats take up space unless you have the paid service

[@s6za755]

Realistically, it’s not worth it. The game gets no updates for being a $60 game it’s really dry and the optics that we do get or for noobs

[@SwearWoolf]

I just today paid for my second month of Fallout 1st. I never would have believed that it was as good as it is, on paper it doesn’t look like it. I can’t imagine playing without it now.

[@DevStarkiller]

As a non-member, I can say that the game does take more inventory management. Not being much of a CAMP builder I make it work. Have a few, focused character builds, resist the urge to pick up all of the things and it is completely doable.

[@Marwell0709]

I believe you're a minimalist, no offence intended. Most folk do not like to fit in such hard restrictions, nor in game, nor in life. Fallout extremely small player base is a obvious proof.

[@P3nAlPineapple]

Yeah I felt without it , it does take a lot of inventory management but I agree if you're not a camp builder you can definitely make it work! and if you do have a few characters , it can work even better with sharing items with other characters but I feel when it comes to unique items that are locked to your character that's where I fall short, I keep everything and use up so much stash space 😅

[@Mohawk_Productions]

yes i can see how some people think its expensive but honestly since starting the game back up and already being encumbered a bunch of times yesterday, i think next paycheck i'm getting FO1st, the tent is worth it alone and the atoms are even yay moment, personally i've been playing 76 off and on since release and i still find it entertaining, even more so now that a lot of my loading screens are of my character's cute backside and her frontside (Dont judge me lol)

[@adamantiumreaver4283]

Im sub to fallout 1st is OP. Just the tent and scrap box make it OP. I can farm guns and items get walk out of the location over encumbered, place the tent for free, scrap everything and store and do it again. Not to mention private servers, where I claim almost all workshops in one go and just defend them to get endless amounts of items. Its a bit OP in terms of saving time and effort.

[@bobloerakker7010]

I still can't get over the fact that if you play this game for 7600 hours, you get 76 atoms...like wtf.

[@metallicaaa]

Maybe once we get some actual in game content, they really are only giving us the bare minimum.

[@TattleDelta]

Probably because 76 is only being given a minimum of support. A small studio called Double Eleven is handling the game these days.

[@nflisrigged1395]

Yea it is. If I could still afford it right now I'd be a member. Having that survival tent ⛺️ alone is worth it.

[@kristianshreiner6893]

The deployable survival tent justifies the price alone (the connivence and quality of life difference cannot be understated in my opinion). Scrap box is another boon, icing on the cake. And the monthly atoms are the cherry. All other perks, just sprinkles. Private wold, happy birthday candle/ wish.

[@Lordoftheapes79]

Honestly? You're basically buying 1650 Atoms per month and the rest is a bonus. FO1st is the best $$ to Atom ratio.

[@Durrtyboy]

They should just add the scrap boxes and ammo box to the base game and then keep the rest on first the survival tent is nice but not needed the atoms are nice but not needed the private server is nice but not needed the limited storage space is just a money grab and should just be base game

[@Shypwreck]

I used to subscribed, but when I canceled I lost access to some items that I purchased via the atom store or got free. Mainly the scrap box, etc. I really need the scrap box (s) etc. I asked if bethesda can make an exception for just the scrap and ammo box...nope. So I decided to delete my game from steam. I may return in a year or so, but honestly if I cannot access my scrap box (s) then to hell with fallout 76.

[@leefylee73]

ive played since it was free on playstation store, got fo1st the week later and couldn't play without it.

[@sloppymyhammer]

im only paying for the scrapbox and ok items on scoreboard

[@Tomboiwebb]

You know what would be even more great if the service would stop crashing it crashes on me like 5 or 6 times a day and I'll pay for Fallout 1st I'm thinking about canceling it until they fix their servers

[@mrplayfulshade]

I pay for it each month every month because I play the game often enough to where it legit is a good thing to have, saves alotta time and just great in terms of camp building since you get a shit ton of atoms per month. Yes it's totally worth it if you are actually gonna play the game

[@patrickgould923]

Star Trek Online a free to play game, has a 1 time subscription fee that does just about the same thing as Fallout 1st but better cause its a LIFEtime subscription & if you dont want to do the lifetime sub you can still get everything threw the game with a little bit of work, unlike fallout 1st

[@patrickgould923]

BTW most online games have become a PAY TO WIN game

[@tpak819]

Same reason I quit ESO. Bethesda constantly puts QoL stuff behind paywalls. You already pay for game, dlcs, etc ...then they try and squeeze more $ from you. Screw Beth and streamers that support this crap. These are QoL stuff ...not new content. Save your money ...buy Fallout 4 and use mods.

[@tom2gunzbombadil689]

I couldn't afford 10k a week for an extra box.. id pay real $ tho 😆 🤣 😂 I know its terrible but I'm a legit hoarder

[@Jerusalxm]

It's basically paying for convenience

[@michaelaweber2205]

Its Always worth getting

[@betterarmed]

Absolutely worth it.

[@CrityCrit]

I wish it was a bit cheaper and its kinda of disgustingly unfair tbh.

[@michaelgauthier6264]

Fallout 1 we need it free

[@thealiens145]

Not worth it. You pay 5 dollars too put a can on a Shelf and its so cool.

[@P3nAlPineapple]

I think you can do more than that with it but again it's definitely not for everybody 😅

[@thealiens145]

@@P3nAlPineapple yes. On fallout 4 I have so many Saves with so many universe. Fight clubs, Ones a Military, ones a Mobster. So many ways too customize the camp. The camp made that universe. 76 seems so limited. Awesome Work you do friend.

[@P3nAlPineapple]

@@thealiens145 Yeah when you look at what was possible with Fallout 4 compared to Fallout 76 it's definitely worlds a part 😅 & thank you I really appreciate it buddy , thanks for you support and thanks for your feedback 😊

I am ty to pay fallout 1

[@DraintheDefiler]

nope buy a second account or play with a friend

[@TattleDelta]

I have it, but only because I am comfortable money-wise. If money was a little tight, FO1st just doesn't offer enough to justify its' monthly price imo.
