First Look At The NEW PTS Update! Playable Ghoul, New Locations, & More!

[@EpsilonCobra]

Legendary Beelzbub, giant bee of Yore, i must say the new team that holds Fallout 76 is going wild and i appreciate this, this game is getting a good treatment nowadays.

[@scottshep8978]

The interactions with the factions definitely need to expanded/changed. Plus like you said any outfit that covers your head should work and have the ability to change out of it.

[@Ghost_-nz5dy]

Good news it’s in the PTS so it’s libel to change

[@CalsonD.Tytreides]

thats was my number one issue with this pts was the fact of there being no reaction to us being a ghoul and it feels like there is no actual negative impact to being a ghoul.

[@MachineGunSean]

For the BOS, they should have who you chose to lead play a role. Ramani seems like she would be slightly more accepting of ghouls in their ranks while Shin doesn't. So maybe that could be a circumstance that affects a playthrough.

[@Swordslinger-hb1ns]

Everyone thought after Fallout 76’s disastrous launch that this MMO lite spinoff of the beloved franchise would not just die but kill the Fallout franchise….. but Bethesda actually listened to our outrage and feedback and started correcting course. After the Wastelanders update Fallout kept on getting patch after patch and updates after updates giving it a much needed lease on life. So much like the vault dwellers of Vault 76 themselves Fallout 76 managed to survive the nuclear apocalypse and rebuilt themselves to make Fallout 76 not only the success it intended to be but also be fun and enjoyable. Wish BioWare’s Anthem and DICE’s Battlefield 2042 had that phoenix rebirth but I guess it wasn’t to be. Sucks I know.

[@HendarsChannel]

Awesome tonik thanks for checking this out I had no idea. This is cool!

[@T0nik]

No problem!!

[@RevivalDan]

Thanks for the preview T0nik. Haven’t had a chance to try out the PTS yet but it all looks great. I’m especially excited for the new locations

[@SirShadeyy]

The giant honeybee with the flowers is super neat

[@Basarius]

I hope I can at least look similar to my character that I have before turning into a ghoul. Or in the very least if I want to turn back I look how I did before. I spent a lot of time on my character and for it to be changed would upset me just a wee bit.

[@RobertRife-h6w]

That first quest-line ghoul voice sounds just like Danny Glover.

[@lisaskatesIRL]

I can't wait! Already started a new character to ghoulify! 🎉

[@izeckx]

I'm really dissapointed with the "disguise", but this is still very early stuff. We'll see how it goes. Here's hopping for something more robust

[@mrshmellowyt6189]

I like that new event with a boss its how a game like fallout 76 needs to be updated

[@Fehn_Fennec]

Gosh I’m so excited for this, I’d definitely take the trade off to be a Ghoul in such a world

[@Fehn_Fennec]

A Question I’ve had since they announced the Ghoul update is if they make is so Instead of the “Assassins” legendary effect doing more damage to humans, if they’ll switch it to “Ghoul Slayers” when you become a Ghoul

[@MothMaidenCeri]

how did modus react to you being a ghoul?

[@T0nik]

Just tried going into The Whitespring bunker and I got the same message as the other places. "The Enclave is distrustful of ghouls, a disguise is needed to interact with them"

[@MothMaidenCeri]

@@T0nik i still don't get why raiders and foundation, both of which have ghouls say no to your ghoul character.

[@MothMaidenCeri]

@T0nik I didn't notice a vendor at the settlement, there had to be at least one right?

[@DeaconBlues117]

@@MothMaidenCeri Those do specify _unfamiliar_ ghouls - they don't know you're not feral yet. Which IMO should result in distrust, maybe some bigoted dialog or higher prices at vendors, not a disguise you can't take off.

[@aimp227]

​@@MothMaidenCeribethesda is lazy can't make it realistic only brotherhood has reaction

[@Ghost_-nz5dy]

Yeah, it makes no sense. Why the wayward or the crater would have an issue with you considering crater had a ghoul and also wayward has a ghoul in it. Luckily, this is in the public test server so hopefully they iron this shit out before March , also it’s kind of ridiculous that you can’t take off your disguise unless you talk to the person who gave it to you so hopefully that’s fixed as well

[@MurkyGames]

i hope they make it so we can go in anywhere just add reactions don't lock us out of any building or quest line also this looks awesome

[@canisider4365]

I was hoping that the new event had to do with healing the toxic valley but this is good

[@redfield7389]

Soon I shall make a ghoul paradise at the nuclear waste disposal workshop and it shall be named The Underworld ™!

[@zuzukaji7541]

Maybe off topic,but what about Windy,she is on the PTS or not?Cant check myself

[@NachoCheese2]

I’ve heard that the map was shrunken from back then, how was the old map? I swear there’s places on the map that are showing object but the game has a fence to stop you

[@DeaconBlues117]

The old map was the size of this map, minus the new expansions (you couldn't get to the part of the map that have the new places, just hit an invisible fence). So no, the map wasn't shrunk from before. Places and distances are a bit altered from the real WV, because otherwise Flatwoods wouldn't be very well-placed for beginners and Harper's Ferry probably wouldn't be on the map at all, but those places are precisely where they were when I played B.E.T.A.

[@NachoCheese2]

@ I’m so confused, so they limited our map by invisible walls? I’m new, I bought the game in July for my bday and I played for bit nonstop then left shortly after miner pail event went up then came back to the present event (miss the Mothman event stampede every1 was using the f1st emote) but I am surprised that they r still changing and updating things, I knew my card perks got changed when I came back from playing

[@MASON_99]

Did being a ghoul make feral ghouls friendly?

[@Jao_Poo]

How many days update

[@zeiprls4428]

New player here. May I know what weapon are you using? Thanks!

[@T0nik]

I’m using a bloodied handmade rifle with the light em’ up skin!

[@Nilon241]

The art for the Ghoul Perk cards are so much better than the base game ones. They look so out of place now.

[@MRICECOLDCOLE]

i deleted a lvl 900 to replay as a ghoul.... what a waste thats the effort they put in

[@joaopaulodealmeida5018]

Ghoul or human 4 PA builds?

[@JamieW907]

human because all power armor has massive rad resist

[@akiempow]

This ghoul transformation is permanent?

[@Oooga-Chaka]

I don't believe it's permanent At least according to the info I've read so far.

[@T0nik]

You can change back to a human! At 3:50 on that pop up at the bottom it has some more info. It seems like you can only change back once

[@TheeMasterSword]

Why didnt you talk about Glow or Feral as it pertains to gameplay? Show it off or anything.

[@rileighhosier727]

Ps5 version next pls

[@sergioalexanderdeinschlimm9752]

Does being a ghoul work with bloodied?

[@hiddendesire3076]

From what they said, bloodied and Ghoul Mutation aren’t compatible.

[@sergioalexanderdeinschlimm9752]

@hiddendesire3076 Ohh i see thx

[@MothMaidenCeri]

like #16, i'm gonna be testing my predictions for ghouls that i made back during the original announcement on the pts today. want me to let you know some of my findings based on those predictions?

[@zedcunningham6975]

Are they adding more pride flags????

[@Ima184mm]

Feo fuerte Y formal.

[@GoldStandard8774]

Do we know when the Update will actually release for everyone???

[@combatsoldier2160]

Some time in March from what I heard.

[@GoldStandard8774]

@ WEAK. 😒

[@DeaconBlues117]

@@GoldStandard8774 You want it rushed and buggy, like the original release of the game??

[@DE_Charlie]

First?

[@Storm-np3cf]

If they don't improve it, no one will play it.

[@Hakuru15]

Such a good update a tiny map expansion is dope!

[@ItsHerDaddy]

Maybe this is a work towards faction outfits like in new Vegas, maybe this could also play into pvp 🥲 one could dream. (The disguise system)

[@harrygraham5810]

Of course the devs fuck up interactions with none techno fascist groups XD raiders welcome ghouls, mort lives in the wayward, foundation just let Penelope walk in without issues. typical bugthesda
