Controversy, old friend: it’s good to see you! our fallout 76 post made a lot of people happy, and a lot of people very upset… here’s our data

I would have to strongly disagree with all of the low ratings FO76 has gotten too. Buggy? Sure. It’s still a hellalot of fun to play as is and is only going to get better.

I’m enjoying the game. Playing it at my own pace. Some of my Shadow Group friends are grouping - but, for now at 88 years old, I am taking my time with the game.

Good to hear Trustee! And glad you are in game with us. You’re always a trusty guy to have along.

Last night I was working through some resort down SE of the big dry lakebed. Some level 21 and a level 7 entered the building and proceeded to gank me. I was level 13 at the time.

Since I’d dropped a lot of adhesive, I decided to go back. My camp was near so I headed back in and tried to knock off the level 7. I was in his face, unloading my fulled decked out shotgun and not so much as scratching him the whole time?!?!?!?! I chased him around for almost a minute until his buddy came back and helped kill me again.

Now, I’m not one to usually cry foul over PvP, but something was rotten in Denmark there. I put almost 20 some shots into his face, point blank range and his health bar never budged.

So was this a server sync issue maybe? I was shooting where he really wasn’t? Dunno, but it was rather frustrating to not be able to kill someone half my level. He was shooting at me with one of those wimpy laser pistols which didn’t do much damage to me but it was affecting my health bar.

Check in the game settings and see if you have Pacifist Mode turned on. With that mode on you will do reduced damage to other players and will not be able to initiate PVP.
