i Remember starting the game 6 months ago, a guy teleported to Vault 76 right as i exited and gave me a shit tons of plans. As a memory to this guy, i now carry the tradition. Everytime i see a low level player in the forest i give plans, stimpacks, radaway... so yeah tip 10 is very real.
Little late, I seriously recommend giving them a power armor frame with a core (it makes it much easier for low levels if they don't have to find a frame when they are normally scavenged for parts in the aceesable areas)
Oh I remember doing some firefighter quest. I met some high level player but he didn't talk to me so I just talked to a robot there to finish the quest. After I finished conversation he was gone and I found a lv 25 full excavation power armor suit outside (I was lvl 26 at that time) , I thought it was quest reward so I take it, maybe he was giving this to me. Maybe it's time to pass that PA to some player.
@@fallout0624 can we give the frame to others...? I heard once u enter the frame it belong to u only (i just starting about 1-2 week ago so still learning some stuff)
I consider myself a beginner but when I meet a newbie I'm happy to drop a high end weapon or junk for them. If they need something specific I invite them to my camp and even craft the best item I can for them asking nothing. I usually have lots to spare so why not pass it around.
This game made a big comeback, new player, been playing for a week. Needless to say, I'm addicted and the community has been so far....really nice, nothing toxic at all. One time i heard some shots fired behind me while i was crafting, turned a round a few minutes later.....no one was there....except a little paper bag with some plans, stims, rad-aways, etc.
I got like 200 pieces of at least 10 types of different scraps. Before that I had been on a long break, because I was just stuck trying to think how the hell I wouldn't keep running out of everything. Things just seemed too difficult, but that was a nice morale boost I guess :D now I've been playing a lot again
Great tips Mr T. As a daily Day 1 player who runs multiple characters (10 characters across 2 accounts + 25 mules) I’d add the following: 1) Ammo: collect everything - visit a Lvl 50+ camp & use the Ammo Converter to convert to the ammo you want. Saves a LOT of time; 2) XP bonuses: always be Well Slept (sleep at your own camp/bed) & craft Cranberry Cobbler (cook using Cranberries & Wood). 3) Bonus Damage: sneak whilst shooting - double damage whilst still unseen. Welcome to 76 for those reading this! Have fun! 👊🏻😎🇦🇺
Day one player but took a long break for a while. Logged back on a new account today and had the most wholesome experience from a high level player. I started setting up my base he came over and said well I guess we’re neighbors now. Proceeded to inv me to his team and he fully decked out my base with some crazy stuff. Then told me if I ever need anything to just ask. What a kind soul man. So damn wholesome made my weekend. Thanks wildman you are truly awesome.
The best advice I got early on in this game is to remember "Don't fear death." In this game, in death, all you lose is scrap, and if it's an event you will get a longer time to respawn, but really, that's it. You die, you can respawn and kill whatever it was that killed you and still gain the XP and level up, or someone else will have gotten it for you and you level up anyway. But if you fear it and don't tag it for XP, you're missing out!
I remember that I was buying stuff in a train station I was like level 20 and this guy in full power armor just stands there and shoots the ground he gave me a buttload of fusion cores stimpaks and bullets that man is the best person I’ve met in a game
One big tip for early xp, if you're at an event with lots of other players, focus on tagging as many enemies as you can with a bullet or two. You'll still get full xp for someone else finishing them off. And if you're in proximity of your teamates you'll get half xp for enemies they killed. Really good events to join high level players on would be Uranium Fever, One Violent Night, Line in the Sand, And Radiation Rumble.
Just started playing and I'm in love with this game and the community. I've run into a good handful of high level players and they have all been awesome. Shout out to the dude who was level 127 and dropped power armor and fusion cores for me and the other 2 low level guys who joined the party. Great video. Glad this game didn't die. Kind of a no man's sky story. +1 sub
That last tip is so true, my brother and I started playing about a month ago and a player welcomed us with a pipe revolver, good amount of ammo, stimpaks and purified water. We were a bit cautious with him because we thought he was going to troll us until he messaged us and asked if we needed help, that calmed us down and I wanted him to be in a team with us but my brother said it will be a better experience if we went alone. We thanked him for everything and from time to time I check the map to see if he’s on when I play alone. Now that I reached a good level and found some good loot I’m not gonna use at the end of the day, I go in front of the vault and leave some bags behind for when people come out they can get some stuff. Thank you Retro Gamer for giving me and my brother a good experience in an online game, we are way too used to toxic online gamers so it was refreshing to see a good community.
I literally realized, two days ago, the watch tower survey ability. Also, after you get to level 10, 20 ,30, etc., scrap your backpack and build a new one with the higher level with more carry weight. I was hauling around a small backpack from level one and didn't realize you could build a higher level version until I accidentally went into the option. I was a level 35 when I noticed! It's the same with armor too. Wasting resources, repairing a level 5 armor piece is ridiculous when you can build a level 30 version for the same amount.
Me too... except I was like lv 70 I think. A vet was telling me about weight, packs ect. I mentioned my pack n that I hadn't done the tadpole yet. He said, Just craft a lv 50 pack !!! I literally almost fainted. Blew my mind... lol 🤯
@@tom2gunzbombadil689 You have to be careful, building your character and backpack to carry excessive weight. I found out the hard way they you can buff your character enough that they can carry more weight without power armor than with. This means you can move freely through the world but when you suit up for extra protection, you're over encumbered with power armor as your backpack is removed when wearing it.
@AtariBorn happens to me all the time.. the only time I wasn't was when I first crafted excavator pa. But then I got that bigger pack n now if I'm wearing pa I'm wayyyyyy over. I'm like lv 141 now. But I typically don't use pa, just collect it. Unless it's a boss fight in a event or something. Or for the jetpack.
I remember coming out of the vault and being kind of freaked by a high level player acting weird and dropping something. Turned out to be a nice level 15 weapon I'm glad I hung on to, instead of the booby trap I was worried about. Gave that weapon to another player later on. Now when I see a new player I mod out a couple of level 5 weapons they can use right away, ammo and whatever else.
I don't like multilayer games, but I'm a huge fallout fan. Thanks for giving me the confidence to give this one a try and thanks for the tips. Despite my anxiety I will try my best to engage with the community. War never changes after all
I have to say this community has been extremely welcoming, polar opposite to something like Gmod. Thank you for such a wonderful experience and I hope to enjoy this game for years to come.
I’ve just got back into the game, haven’t played since it first came out, I’ll be the first to admit I was intimidated by how many high level players there were, but even as I’ve been wandering the wasteland in a dress, almost every other player I’ve come across has dropped me some items to help me get my start! Usually, I’d never even consider joining a public team, but seeing how kind this community is, it’s starting to change my mind!
One tip for high level players: do not overload noobs with supply drops. They don't have the weight reduction perks and your generosity may overencumber them!
I have been gifted A BUNCH of plans when I first came on 76 while low leveled. Now I do the same thing when I can if I have them in hand. I also sell A bunch of plans for max 20 caps to help out. It’s hard out there and this vid helps a lot.
I remember getting this gane on sale, i would say a year mor or less after release and jumping in to my first gane, i was free roaming until i crossed paths with a guy who had the power armor and a ton of loot i imagine since he dropped me some gear that i couldn’t even wear due to being high level and was giving me tips, i didnt even have a mic but he kept on explaining things to me. We played until he decided to go his on way. I believe he is in my friends list still cuz i remember adding him but im not sure. I will never forget that guy, i just started playing 76 again today and here i am. The gane runs so much better now, back then the fps was bad on the ps4
New fallout 76 player here. Before I saw this video I discovered by accident that when you scrap weapons some times you can get plans for the weapon you´re scrapping. Also yesterday, a higher level player came out of nowhere and gave me 10 stimpaks. So I can confirm that the community takes care of new players. Great video. Hopefully I will be able to try some of the tips soon.
I love this game I just started a couple days ago and immediately some high level gave me almost everything I could need at least 200 blueprints and some guns
I just started my first character last week and have been having a good enough time wading in ignorance, but this has been one of the best, most informative, and mostly-spoiler free tips-n-tricks vid I've ever watched.
Man, if I knew that high leveled players are as nice as you described I wouldn't of fast traveled away so much. A level 230 player was going towards me on the map and I panicked and fast traveled away because I didnt want to die. I feel bad for doing that now...
Some excellent tips! *** One tip i would like to recommend is to go retrieve your dropped loot if you should get killed. Later in the game it is not as important, but early on, all junk, etc. is useful.
The game became free for playstation plus this month so there's been a lot of new players (inlcuding me) recently. I see a lot of people in first responder uniforms taking stuff up to the vault so people seem a lot nicer than I thought they would be so far
Started playing Fallout 76 2 days ago, last night was just wandering around and got nervous when a high level player came up to me, started giving me lots of ammo and supplies, even got me a set of power armor, this community is awesome
I've been playing since the beta but with any game I always like to watch beginner guides because there always might be something I missed in any game. Never hurts to check
On your information about high level characters giving stuff to you I had one give me the nuka cola paint plan when my main character was around 10th level before I knew where to get it on my own so yeah take the gifts they offer even if you can't use it yet it's helpful
I would recommend walking around and just exploring -- there are so many unique things to find in this world and unique random encounters! There are weird teddy bear or gnome set-ups, sad tales of the demise of others, or just things that make you think.
I went crazy on playing when the game first came out and played for so long and am gonna try to get back into it, crazy how much has changed. Loved the game at launch, never like the people that mob hated on it, beautiful game.
As a new player myself, I have only had one person try to harass me. Aside from that, I have had 6 people that gave me things, then they just left!!! Literally the best community I've ever experienced in a decade!
I just saw the game on sale on PS4 so went for it - It was Deluxe version for $14, the standard version was much more expensive for some reason. Don’t even know what extra will the deluxe version give since the descriptions for both looked kind of the same, LOL. Anyway, I noticed this video was made using the PC version of fallout. I hope the community on the PS4/5 side is as nice and helpful as what the comments for this PC version indicate. The game is downloading now, 1 hr 25 mins to go, LOL
Me and one of my buddies just started playing this and mannnnn ive never played an online game with this little toxicity have had multiple high level players and even some not so high players drop stuff for me! Only been lured into one trap camp and my lesson was learned😂
Today was a good day I’m a level 13-14ish NCR ranger Some level 90 Fellow NCR ranger comes by and admires my recon base camp, drops so many plans and recipes he doesn’t need, I’d say maybe 80-100 plans and recipes, gives me a thumbs up and leaves, I now have a Brahmin, flood lights to illuminate my crops and base, jukebox, and a ton of other things We need more people like him
Got this game when it came out but stopped playing becuase of glitches and other reasons but I recently just found out that it got a big update and now Im coming back to it.
I love fallout 76 we have the best community I'm a lv 14 and I try to help anyone I can and I gotten help alot too love this game and I love the community
One thing I think is very important to mention is to make sure you specialize one type damage perk early on because the enemy scaling can be really rough mid game
Iv been playing since beta and still watch to beginner guides incase i learn something new. Have a tendency to run around dropping PA frames for new players. Great guide man. 👍
I just got this a few days ago after being on the fence about FO76 since 2019 when it was in a really rough state. I'm glad I got it; it's actually quite fun to explore in. It does feel mostly like Fallout 4.5, but with some new mechanics and much better writing. Thanks for the tips. EDIT: Did I see someone who was level 1153??? How is that even possible?
3rd day playing fallout 76 here. (30hrs) once you join events where all high level players immediately teleport. you gonna get what you expect (killing 3 star legendary boss) random players I come across and see me in a power armor but no fusion core. They give me like 10-20 fusion core (that's just one example) the community is so cool even at always random. until you accidentally rob their unmarked base.....
While I do sometimes get the mischievous urge to aim my weapon at a wanderer, I prefer keeping the peace and helping others, thought I'm usually the one needing the help since I'm newish lol
Just tried the game yesterday, and right off the rip, someone had my buddy and I follow him and set us up on stims and weapons. Was expecting a rust type of environment from people, was very presently surprised!
I just started the game I loved new Vegas but I have to say there is something here for sure my cousin and I started playing it together and within minutes of getting out of the vault we ran into a level 600 who set up both of our camps dropped us OP ass weapons and told us about mutation I didn't think I would like this game but the fallout community is just too awesome
I haven’t played the game since launch and I played it the other day, fresh start. 2 level 500-something’s dropped me enough ammo for HOURS and cool guns to use in just a few levels! It’s a great game. Love the community
Im a rather old player now but I will say this, guides like this help alot, even more then I can hope to do (I'm the guy who drops power armor frames for low levels who probably don't know where to find them and I try to keep their Cores at a minimum of 50 precent)
great tips, and not just for beginners. Leader of the Pack is my go to event when I need to kill 1-3 legendaries but dont have a lot of time to play or search for legos in game. I've had waiting parties outside Vault 76 for noobs, only to have them run past us and straight down the stairs. apparently 6+ ppl standing their with weapons is intimidating.
Watched this cuz im thinking bout jumping in and being a veteran gta online player hearing that the community is super nice sounds like it will take some getting use to but sounds like fun so i think im going to get fallout 76 tomorrow
On the topic of helping people, don't be afraid to join daily ops teams with 2-3 high level players. Most of us can solo Decryption anyway, and as long as you at least try to do the objective in Uplink, we'll gladly carry you to some nice Elder tier rewards.
Also I’m pretty decent at the game everything going pretty well by the way I am a OG fallout player since fallout 3 and my favorite fallout by far is fallout 4 because it’s underrated I think personally fallout 76 is getting a lot of credit tho for its online community but I think Bethesda is pushing it to far for fo76
Literally picked the game up last night and had a lot of questions and didn't really know what I was doing I joined an event and took no part in it and was met a while later by a guy who gave me a heart emoji and dropped a bag of goodies for me he was the leader. I thought ye was going to give me shit for not helping but no soon nice cheers for the tips answered some questions I had
Liked your video, getting back into 76, bought it when it came out and quickly lost interest as there wasn't much to do... But the TV show resparked my interest, as it did so many others... So here I am drunk and watching vids to catch up on what's new... thank you!
Really great line up of beginner tips! All of which took me a minute to learn such as crafting ammo (makes the game SO much more enjoyable lol)and that high level characters arent constantly gunning for you and actually probably want to hook you up lol my group has just started introducing a new player so this video even helped me to remember all those little fringe tips that you really have to learn! Funny memory I have of being super low level, my husband and I play together and he picked a lock at a workshop and he of coarse became wanted and we were panicking because we thought someone would be able to kill him and steal EVERYTHING. So I left the team and killed him myself and looking back it is truely hilarious and cringe worthy beginner antics 🤣 the dramatics we're way too much lol
I'm not a 100% on this, I'm a noob myself, but, I believe that to lose the "wanted" status quickly it's best to get killed. So I wouldn't get upset if something similar happened and you got killed - they probably just helped you out.
So I just started fallout 76 today it’s fun so far I’m like level 5 and I came across only 1 high level player and he didn’t even help me but it’s ok because I have a lot of fallout 4 experience so maybe one day I will be up there on that level
Good advice, I'm a few thousand hours in and this is pretty much how I'd start a new character. Regarding gifts from high levels...high level players, ask the low level if they want help! I start a new character every six months or so and OH MY GOD there is nothing more annoying than being chased around by some level 1000+ who insists on giving me stuff. It takes away from the experience of the game and the incentive to take the time for new players to understand the grind, pay attention to the quests, and so on. Not everyone wants the easy way out. The absolute worst are the ones who try to drop a fully modded kit. For the love of all the game is only hard when you don't have all the things. Finding the things is the fun of the game! If you want to help so badly, get on the mic, ask if they need help, offer to team up and show them around a bit, give advice on buffs, make a friend.
Or just don't take any of the stuff the higher levels drop. If it bothers you that much and they follow you, switch servers. Funny to see someone throwing a fit over another trying to help.
Best events to join for beginners doesn’t matter what is uranium fever event or radiation rumble. You will gain so much xp especially if your in a team due to xp sharing and you’ll get a several legendary weapons and armor. Screw leader of the pack at those events your on your own since barely anyone does those.😂 If you want free bullets without spending caps or resources join a group to spam daily ops not only will you get hundreds of ammo but also a lot of xp.
I join teams to get about the map whenever i make a new character but recently ive found a lot of high levels will kick you if youre anything under lvl15/20 Like c'mon! I have collective levels of around 500+ across my characters... Im not just some noob tagging along to steal XP. Let me join youuuuuu However Ive played 76 from the not so glorious starting point it had and I have to say the amount of effort thats been put into the game since and the higher levels that keep the community strong are what keeps me coming back.
Great video, I really like that you thought to include the info about playing on servers with other people and their expectations, from their point of view, seeing someone new.
I just started fallout 76 on ps4.. I’m so overwhelmed with everything with this game, I love fallout but this game seems so in-depth.. probably a long shot but is there anyone that could “show me the ropes” per say? Would be great to have a good team to start the game.
To quickly claim a power armor set that is in a power armor crafting station (e.g. shed W of Mama Dulce’s or outside shed at Blackwater mine), enter the crafting station, then immediately leave. Then just grab the PA as you would normally pick up your own (Y on Xbox)
Thanks for this! I never knew about the train station free way points, or the boost to exp on groups! I've always been a solo player, on and off, never got past lvl30. Looking forward to hoping back in!
My first FO76 toon got a full set of the mining armor from a level 100 something. Very cool people in FO76. I just started a new toon. Want to experience all the new content with a new character. My main is only level 134, but I'm seeking the new experience :)

Great tips Mr T. As a daily Day 1 player who runs multiple characters (10 characters across 2 accounts + 25 mules) I’d add the following:

We played until he decided to go his on way. I believe he is in my friends list still cuz i remember adding him but im not sure. I will never forget that guy, i just started playing 76 again today and here i am. The gane runs so much better now, back then the fps was bad on the ps4
I just started this game last night. This morning a high level guy hooked me up with tons of stuff i have no idea how to use but hell yeah
New fallout 76 player here. Before I saw this video I discovered by accident that when you scrap weapons some times you can get plans for the weapon you´re scrapping. Also yesterday, a higher level player came out of nowhere and gave me 10 stimpaks. So I can confirm that the community takes care of new players. Great video. Hopefully I will be able to try some of the tips soon.
just bought this game thx for this useful guide this will help me alot for my journey
No problem, hope you enjoy the game!!
I love this game I just started a couple days ago and immediately some high level gave me almost everything I could need at least 200 blueprints and some guns
I just started my first character last week and have been having a good enough time wading in ignorance, but this has been one of the best, most informative, and mostly-spoiler free tips-n-tricks vid I've ever watched.
It's a fun game! Welcome to the community!
Great Video! Virgin FO76 guy here as of today lol. Played 3, 4, NV but new to 76.
Man, if I knew that high leveled players are as nice as you described I wouldn't of fast traveled away so much.
A level 230 player was going towards me on the map and I panicked and fast traveled away because I didnt want to die.
I feel bad for doing that now...
Some excellent tips! *** One tip i would like to recommend is to go retrieve your dropped loot if you should get killed. Later in the game it is not as important, but early on, all junk, etc. is useful.
The game became free for playstation plus this month so there's been a lot of new players (inlcuding me) recently. I see a lot of people in first responder uniforms taking stuff up to the vault so people seem a lot nicer than I thought they would be so far
this channel is carrying me rn istg, and I agree this community is honestly one of the nicest gaming communities I've ever seen.
Started playing Fallout 76 2 days ago, last night was just wandering around and got nervous when a high level player came up to me, started giving me lots of ammo and supplies, even got me a set of power armor, this community is awesome
I've been playing since the beta but with any game I always like to watch beginner guides because there always might be something I missed in any game. Never hurts to check
On your information about high level characters giving stuff to you I had one give me the nuka cola paint plan when my main character was around 10th level before I knew where to get it on my own so yeah take the gifts they offer even if you can't use it yet it's helpful
I would recommend walking around and just exploring -- there are so many unique things to find in this world and unique random encounters! There are weird teddy bear or gnome set-ups, sad tales of the demise of others, or just things that make you think.
I went crazy on playing when the game first came out and played for so long and am gonna try to get back into it, crazy how much has changed. Loved the game at launch, never like the people that mob hated on it, beautiful game.
Seems like back then was the hardcore era cause gah damn there's so many quality-of-life updates.
As a new player myself, I have only had one person try to harass me.
Aside from that, I have had 6 people that gave me things, then they just left!!!
Literally the best community I've ever experienced in a decade!
I tried killing a guy next to Summerville, what that you?
@@crimzenwoffinden9973
I'm going to rebuild the country!
(Starts killing everything around)
watching this coz i just started playing the game yesterday. :) I love when you mention that higher level players are giving stuff.
I hope you enjoy the game dude! And It’s an awesome community :)
I just started playing this game. I'm a level 13. And I didn't know any of these tips haha. You really just saved me a lot of time. Thank you!
No problem, glad I could help!!
I just saw the game on sale on PS4 so went for it - It was Deluxe version for $14, the standard version was much more expensive for some reason. Don’t even know what extra will the deluxe version give since the descriptions for both looked kind of the same, LOL. Anyway, I noticed this video was made using the PC version of fallout. I hope the community on the PS4/5 side is as nice and helpful as what the comments for this PC version indicate. The game is downloading now, 1 hr 25 mins to go, LOL
Perfect to recommend to a friend!!! Thank you 😁
No problem!!
Me and one of my buddies just started playing this and mannnnn ive never played an online game with this little toxicity have had multiple high level players and even some not so high players drop stuff for me!
Only been lured into one trap camp and my lesson was learned😂
Today was a good day
I’m a level 13-14ish NCR ranger
Some level 90 Fellow NCR ranger comes by and admires my recon base camp, drops so many plans and recipes he doesn’t need, I’d say maybe 80-100 plans and recipes, gives me a thumbs up and leaves,
I now have a Brahmin, flood lights to illuminate my crops and base, jukebox, and a ton of other things
We need more people like him
The last tip is so accurate. Been playing for 3hrs max maybe and got all sorts of gear from one player. Bless
I’m starting my Fallout 76 journey. This video was very informative. 😊😊
I just started playing a couple days ago, maybe 3-4 hours in right now, and luckily I’ve been able to find around 600 shotgun shells….
He's 100% right this game really does have THE nicest community I've ever seen online multiplayer game. I've only ever been harrassed once.
Im brandnew to fallout comeing off a long GTA grind and the community was like a breath of fresh air 🤙
Got this game when it came out but stopped playing becuase of glitches and other reasons but I recently just found out that it got a big update and now Im coming back to it.
I love fallout 76 we have the best community I'm a lv 14 and I try to help anyone I can and I gotten help alot too love this game and I love the community
One thing I think is very important to mention is to make sure you specialize one type damage perk early on because the enemy scaling can be really rough mid game
Iv been playing since beta and still watch to beginner guides incase i learn something new. Have a tendency to run around dropping PA frames for new players. Great guide man. 👍
Thank you!
Facts there always new things we learn
I installed this and have a few days off from work starting tomarrow . I’m excited
I'm almost lvl 100 and still learning new things. Thanks for the video mate.
I just got this a few days ago after being on the fence about FO76 since 2019 when it was in a really rough state. I'm glad I got it; it's actually quite fun to explore in. It does feel mostly like Fallout 4.5, but with some new mechanics and much better writing. Thanks for the tips.
EDIT: Did I see someone who was level 1153??? How is that even possible?
3rd day playing fallout 76 here. (30hrs)
once you join events where all high level players immediately teleport. you gonna get what you expect (killing 3 star legendary boss)
random players I come across and see me in a power armor but no fusion core. They give me like 10-20 fusion core (that's just one example)
the community is so cool even at always random. until you accidentally rob their unmarked base.....
I started playing two days ago and a high level built me a base and gave me loot love this community
Nvm it's been destroyed 😪
Someone gave me a Fixer rifle, and I still use it as one of my main guns. You're right, nice players, almost entirely.
Downloading this game as it’s on offer and I’m excited to play the game really glad with these tips and can’t wait to meet the Fallout community
I used to wait outside the vault for lv 1’s to come out, I would have stimpaks and radaways for them sometimes purified water too
While I do sometimes get the mischievous urge to aim my weapon at a wanderer, I prefer keeping the peace and helping others, thought I'm usually the one needing the help since I'm newish lol
Just tried the game yesterday, and right off the rip, someone had my buddy and I follow him and set us up on stims and weapons. Was expecting a rust type of environment from people, was very presently surprised!
Game being free on PS Store brought me here, Appreciate the video💯 Great Game and Community!
Excited to give this game another try. I only briefly played before and had a good time but didn’t stick with it.
I just started the game I loved new Vegas but I have to say there is something here for sure my cousin and I started playing it together and within minutes of getting out of the vault we ran into a level 600 who set up both of our camps dropped us OP ass weapons and told us about mutation I didn't think I would like this game but the fallout community is just too awesome
I haven’t played the game since launch and I played it the other day, fresh start. 2 level 500-something’s dropped me enough ammo for HOURS and cool guns to use in just a few levels! It’s a great game. Love the community
This is all great info. It is so much easier to level up a mule using all these tips.
i ran away from someone man that sucks when you said they are gonna try give you something but now i know
haha me too 😭
Im a rather old player now but I will say this, guides like this help alot, even more then I can hope to do (I'm the guy who drops power armor frames for low levels who probably don't know where to find them and I try to keep their Cores at a minimum of 50 precent)
New to fallout, first ever fallout game was 76. Best community everyone is so nice in game.
great tips, and not just for beginners. Leader of the Pack is my go to event when I need to kill 1-3 legendaries but dont have a lot of time to play or search for legos in game.
I've had waiting parties outside Vault 76 for noobs, only to have them run past us and straight down the stairs. apparently 6+ ppl standing their with weapons is intimidating.
Have about 1000+ Hours into Fallout 4.. Just saw FO76 is on the steam summer sale.. thinking about picking it up and giving it a go.
Id recommend grabbing it while it's on sale. The new storylines are pretty good and the map is really fun to explore!
The community of this game is one of the best I've ever seen
Watched this cuz im thinking bout jumping in and being a veteran gta online player hearing that the community is super nice sounds like it will take some getting use to but sounds like fun so i think im going to get fallout 76 tomorrow
Already my favorite RUclipsr intro lol. It's so simple yet so catchy.
after 2 minutes out of the first shelter some high lvl player was crafting me a very well-rounded rifle. you right about the community.
On the topic of helping people, don't be afraid to join daily ops teams with 2-3 high level players. Most of us can solo Decryption anyway, and as long as you at least try to do the objective in Uplink, we'll gladly carry you to some nice Elder tier rewards.
I’m not a beginner but I still watch these videos because it’s amazing on how much I don’t know lol… thanks
Also I’m pretty decent at the game everything going pretty well by the way I am a OG fallout player since fallout 3 and my favorite fallout by far is fallout 4 because it’s underrated I think personally fallout 76 is getting a lot of credit tho for its online community but I think Bethesda is pushing it to far for fo76
I like how nice some high level players are with loot sharing
Literally picked the game up last night and had a lot of questions and didn't really know what I was doing I joined an event and took no part in it and was met a while later by a guy who gave me a heart emoji and dropped a bag of goodies for me he was the leader. I thought ye was going to give me shit for not helping but no soon nice cheers for the tips answered some questions I had
Liked your video, getting back into 76, bought it when it came out and quickly lost interest as there wasn't much to do...
But the TV show resparked my interest, as it did so many others...
So here I am drunk and watching vids to catch up on what's new... thank you!
Really great line up of beginner tips! All of which took me a minute to learn such as crafting ammo (makes the game SO much more enjoyable lol)and that high level characters arent constantly gunning for you and actually probably want to hook you up lol my group has just started introducing a new player so this video even helped me to remember all those little fringe tips that you really have to learn! Funny memory I have of being super low level, my husband and I play together and he picked a lock at a workshop and he of coarse became wanted and we were panicking because we thought someone would be able to kill him and steal EVERYTHING. So I left the team and killed him myself and looking back it is truely hilarious and cringe worthy beginner antics 🤣 the dramatics we're way too much lol
I'm not a 100% on this, I'm a noob myself, but, I believe that to lose the "wanted" status quickly it's best to get killed. So I wouldn't get upset if something similar happened and you got killed - they probably just helped you out.
@@samulai definitely, we were just so concerned someone would be able to (or want to for that matter) steal his level 10 hunting rifle 😂
New player here. So far the community has been really friendly and helpful!
I hope you are having fun!
Just wonder, I have an old friend from MI with this name... are you from Michigan? Detroit area?
So I just started fallout 76 today it’s fun so far I’m like level 5 and I came across only 1 high level player and he didn’t even help me but it’s ok because I have a lot of fallout 4 experience so maybe one day I will be up there on that level
I just started lvl5 rn and this is pretty fun, but damn they really filled this game with everything the others were lacking
Good advice, I'm a few thousand hours in and this is pretty much how I'd start a new character.
Regarding gifts from high levels...high level players, ask the low level if they want help! I start a new character every six months or so and OH MY GOD there is nothing more annoying than being chased around by some level 1000+ who insists on giving me stuff. It takes away from the experience of the game and the incentive to take the time for new players to understand the grind, pay attention to the quests, and so on. Not everyone wants the easy way out. The absolute worst are the ones who try to drop a fully modded kit. For the love of all the game is only hard when you don't have all the things. Finding the things is the fun of the game! If you want to help so badly, get on the mic, ask if they need help, offer to team up and show them around a bit, give advice on buffs, make a friend.
I always ask first because you’re right.
Or just don't take any of the stuff the higher levels drop. If it bothers you that much and they follow you, switch servers. Funny to see someone throwing a fit over another trying to help.
Best events to join for beginners doesn’t matter what is uranium fever event or radiation rumble. You will gain so much xp especially if your in a team due to xp sharing and you’ll get a several legendary weapons and armor.
Screw leader of the pack at those events your on your own since barely anyone does those.😂
If you want free bullets without spending caps or resources join a group to spam daily ops not only will you get hundreds of ammo but also a lot of xp.
Wow I've been playing for years now and never knew about the watch towers or the train station maps.
I just started on ps4 so this video helps with some things ive never seen the towers or any of the stuff beyond that yet
I join teams to get about the map whenever i make a new character but recently ive found a lot of high levels will kick you if youre anything under lvl15/20
Like c'mon! I have collective levels of around 500+ across my characters... Im not just some noob tagging along to steal XP. Let me join youuuuuu
However Ive played 76 from the not so glorious starting point it had and I have to say the amount of effort thats been put into the game since and the higher levels that keep the community strong are what keeps me coming back.
Great video, I really like that you thought to include the info about playing on servers with other people and their expectations, from their point of view, seeing someone new.
Now that this game is free on ps+ some new players will be trying it out so thanks for this guide!
Me :)
@@EthanC8 so did Franklin not kill you? Or did he kill Michael
I just started fallout 76 on ps4.. I’m so overwhelmed with everything with this game, I love fallout but this game seems so in-depth.. probably a long shot but is there anyone that could “show me the ropes” per say? Would be great to have a good team to start the game.
To quickly claim a power armor set that is in a power armor crafting station (e.g. shed W of Mama Dulce’s or outside shed at Blackwater mine), enter the crafting station, then immediately leave. Then just grab the PA as you would normally pick up your own (Y on Xbox)
Thanks for this! I never knew about the train station free way points, or the boost to exp on groups! I've always been a solo player, on and off, never got past lvl30. Looking forward to hoping back in!
Starting today for my first time, wish me luck!
Good luck!!
Well I have played before watching this and a 47 level player did the exact thing that you said, and thank you very much for those tips
My first FO76 toon got a full set of the mining armor from a level 100 something. Very cool people in FO76. I just started a new toon. Want to experience all the new content with a new character. My main is only level 134, but I'm seeking the new experience :)
