343iBot Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 The newest patch for Fallout 76 has arrived, and it's mostly focused on bug fixes. Lots of them. The update brings Fallout 76 up to version 1.6.4.31. The file size varies by platform, but is in the range of 1.6 GB to 9.2 GB--you can see the file sizes for each platform below. As for the fixes, your days of escaping wolf attacks are sadly over. A bug that prevented wolves and other dog-type enemies from attacking you has been fixed. Additionally, the update fixes an issue where multiple enemy types could become frozen and unresponsive. The new Fallout 76 patch also fixes an issue with ally NPCs where they would appear as if they had a weapon drawn after leaving combat. Additionally, the update addresses a problem that could cause water elements to look as if it stopped flowing when Fallout 76 is played in a language other than English. There are some weapon fixes, too, including an update to the Alien Blaster and Alien Disintegrator projectiles; they should now correctly destroy objects and terrain. You can see the full patch notes below, as shared by Bethesda on the Fallout 76 website. Bethesda Game Studios' next release is the sci-fi RPG Starfield, which releases in November as an exclusive to Xbox on console; it's also coming to PC, but don't expect it on PlayStation.
