JCBailey1986: Done three infestations over the weekend. The bosses were nothing more than bullet sponges that had ten or more players unloading onto them. Still took ten minutes before they dropped.

Not fun whatsoever.

tnt737373: “We gave infestation bosses one million HP and didn’t play test because we hate you.”

navybr0wnie: I liked infestations, I just hate every time I tried to do one, someone else would walk up and kill everything before I got the chance. and do it on a solo server I just get mowed down so it's... rough XD

puc_aurawolf: I'm not coming back YET but Raven Rock DEFINITELY has my attention!

loryt6996: scribe blue?HERESY scribe are red while blue is for elder

3081bruno: infestation are "reskined" bounty hunts. just like everything they do.

aeromummy3322: The new Xbox CEO may have killed Todd Howard and is piloting the corpse.

BlitzPlay: I think moving to a wave of minions that need to be cleared before the boss, and maybe a few extra underlings, spawn is the best way to do Infestations. If you get there early, you get more rewards for killing more enemies and getting their Legendary loot but if you arrive a bit late you can still get the boss and the event rewards. I think the minions are tough enough currently but the boss definitely needs to come down in his spongeyness. Doesn't have to be a whole lot but just enough that it still takes some time to kill him without it taking 15 minutes and everyone's run out of ammo. I did one that had the Speedy Assaultron and, oh my fluck, even with eight of us there it took so long to kill it. It was awful. Hopefully, they figure out the balance because I want Infestations to stick around, and for the minions to get their Legendary loot back, as they can be incredibly fun and rewarding.

multidimensionalbeing9561: Raid bosses are more fun to kill than infestation bosses ngl

hughejasse1: I think it likely that people are skipping infestations and complaining about them online so the developers eventually decided to address it. Personally I've been ignoring infestations as the juice isn't worth the squeeze as the rewards are miniscule compared to the time and ammo investment; once they fix the issues I'll give them a shot though. Also the upcoming season just seems like more reskins and since I cancelled my F1st sub I see no reason to renew it thus far.

世界-イシュタル: It’s now difficult to do infestations solo private. Bullet sponges, they are.

Also, new cannery recipes are needed, especially if they can be earned via Mama Dolce’s “Feed the People” event. And one of the recipes I want for the cannery workbench is Canned Chicken Noodle Soup. I know we already have chicken noodle soup in the game, but canning it just seems to make so much god damned sense.

Mesm3r: removing additional legendary drops was definitely a case of "pushing too far"

showtimefu1234: They need to drop at least 4 star weapons

ありおり-m5h: Honestly, the Fallout series has always been one of my all‑time favorites, and I’ve been playing Fallout 76 since day one. But man… Bethesda’s super lazy updates these past few years, their attitude toward never‑fixed bugs, and a bunch of other stuff have really worn me down.

This news is nice, sure, but I just can’t celebrate it wholeheartedly anymore.

I guess I’ll either revive my subscription or just wait and see for a while.

denveroxf: Jon Rush has to go, game is in a terrible state and the player count doesn't lie

aussie_kitty_kat: So it’s great he made an announcement but not everyone is on X. Wondering why it hasn’t also appeared on the Bethesda discord?

mmcg8688: What the heck is Slocum's Joe doing with a Gatling Laser?

aestevalis0: That new PA station's gon' look good in my spaceships. May have to do some rearranging in a couple of them to fit it in though.

jamesthomas6048: Why not instead of giving them millions of health why not have it you gotta take out all the bosses buddies then the boss comes out

tristanurry-xh3bc: Was doing an infestation the other night and 2 minutes into it the health bar was barely touched, as I thought to myself why is an infestation harder than any actual raid boss. Makes zero sense the way things have been laid out between raids headhunts and infestations. Like Bethesda half baked all their ideas and never fully went into them.

troy6882: Be nice to have Power armour stay in a frame rack with magazine and fusion cores and more space there's just not enough storage space 3000 min even when you add boxes for storage space and legendary ring bonuses more legandry items when you scrap then like weapons there nutly rare still the best fallout I've played

LuggageStardate: It is your game, you are going to play it how I tell you to. No you cant kill the boss, you have to kill mobs or waste your time and ammo.

patrickvanloo5206: My expectations are pretty low.

I beleve it when i see it and try it out.

For now i do not do the investations at all , the are finished if i get there anyway.

perceivedvelocity9914: IMO the Brotherhood should not wear Red. It just looks weird

SourChicken1856: More brotherhood slop... Great.

InfinityShot219: I’m honestly just tired of all gaming companies having video titles like this. Just replace “Fallout 76” with any game title and that’s modern gaming

habinations: nice i like that.
