Fallout 76
Bethesda has kept its word and recently released update 1.5.3.10 for the online game Fallout 76. This is especially interesting because it fixes some particularly annoying bugs that fans have been complaining about for some time. Among other things, the update takes care of a problem that prevents enemies from spawning correctly and thus caused some chaos and confusion. Due to this bug, it was not
possible to complete certain challenges in which you had to defeat a certain number of opponents within a given time window.
Furthermore, there is a bug that caused this that a weapon sound is played in a continuous loop, which can logically be very annoying. There are also numerous other fixes, changes and optimizations in various areas of Fallout 76 (buy now / € 35.99). You can find the full patch notes on the
Bethesda official website. Here is a small excerpt:

Fallout 76 Update Fixes Combat, C.A.M.P. Problems
Fallout 76 got a new update this week from Bethesda to address some of the problems players have been having regarding different systems like combat, C.A.M.P. setups, and more. The update’s patch notes contain a multitude of fixes and other improvements for the game, but there aren’t any huge new features to try out or anything like that. For that sort of content, you’ll want to head to the game’s test servers to preview some of the new Brotherhood of Steel content that was added there recently.
The only section of the Fallout 76 patch notes the update contains is for “Bug Fixes and Improvements,” so that tells you not to expect anything too major from this patch since there haven’t been any game-breaking bugs circulating the Internet to speak of. Still, the changes are notable if you’ve been having problems with different areas of the game, so they’re worth looking over to see if those issues have been fixed.
Fallout 76 players can find the full set of patch notes for the latest update below.
