Everything Fallout 76 Gets Right, and Mistakes that Need Fixing
The Good: Multiplayer Base-Building
Speaking of building an isolated cabin in the woods, Fallout 76’s base-building mechanics are pretty fun to tinker with as well. The UI honestly isn’t that much more improved from what we saw in Fallout 4, but it does seem a little less unwieldy.
What makes it even better, though, is the fact that you can create a base with a friend, and there’s a lot of flexibility here, in case you find a better location and want to move your base there instead. With the CAMP module in Fallout 76, players on your team can use their own resources to help build structures in your own base, and you can essentially create a shared house where everyone gets their own room. It’s fantastic.
Of course, this does come with a few drawbacks, the most annoying of which is the fact that if the base owner logs out of the game, teammates can no longer interact with the base until they come back online.
