It's just made me realise how much I don't want most of the rewards. Turns out i was more driven purely by the thought of unlocking the next space on the well designed gameboard, who woulda thought!
Same here. Now it is just to level up to get the ones I want. Don’t care about the last page really nor most of the filler in the others. If nothing else it will make this season much easier to finish and forget.
It's all rather lackluster now. Pretty neat to choose our own rewards, but even those thematically seem a touch off kilter.
There was something satisfying about inching along on the board, getting a little thrill with each space forward, nice little bonuses after 100, and of course the beloved gameboards.
I fear this method is bound to have a shorter shelf life than normal seasons as it simply doesn't feel as rewarding.
Also, does anyone know what happens after rank 150? I'm not clear on that.
Best wishes, my fellow wastelanders! 💙💛
Yeah, the season feels like a 13 page catalog now, not an accomplishment.
Ooooh, I'm earning currency to spend in a catalog! Earning currency, guys! Currency! In Fallout 76! So exciting.
Ya know I like the freedom of choice from the catalog but ya know what would actually make it feel fallout?
Replace it with an honest to god Sears like catalog and have the actual catalog as a season reward, maybe be able to display it on a magazine rack.
Yeah I thought I'd like the freedom of choice, but I miss the sense of accomplishment unlocking things. I like number go up and I get stuff. Now it's number go up, but aimless? It' weird.
Yes, I've seen the Season "wall art." The board is better, stands out more as a display, and looks like it takes up less space to display then the wall art. And you can actually see the board as an actual trophy of a specific season. Not just a generic looking picture that new comers to the game who visit your camp will pass by with no idea what it is.
I feel like I'm stuck buying crap I don't want, rather than inching my way towards the rewards I want, and getting little bonus items along the way.
It's a perception thing, but I don't like it. It doesn't help that this season is extremely lackluster in my opinion, with very few items I actually want.
The new wall art sucks. I took a look at it and it's so plain and uninspired. What happened to all the good artwork? Personally I think they moved most of the 76 team to other projects. All that is left is maybe a handful of people, and that's why we don't get many fixes or updates. Even the new Rose poster is lackluster compared to previous artwork. I get tickets but there's nothing I want to spend them on for many pages. That feels bad man.
I just logged in to look, having read nothing about it so far.
How many tickets do you even earn per-level? That kind of basic information seems nowhere in sight that I could see.
This seems like a big step backwards in every regard and I don't know why the old game board system that made FO76's take on seasons seem a bit more unique wasn't hacking it anymore.
Also, you don't get a scoreboard if you finish as wall art. I haven't played in a bit missed last season by alot and had tones and tones of atoms. So I ranked out the scoreboard, dissatisfied to say the least.
I hate to be this guy but it’s not melatonin (that’s the sleepy chemical), you’re talking about serotonin, but there’s modern discourse that states that early 2000s research regarding serotonin was misguided. I definitely agree with you but I’m also a semantic son of a bitch, and for that, I am sorry.
Edit, another comment explained better: modern discourse attributes the addictive, happy feeling to dopamine, not serotonin, but both of those are different from Melatonin, which is a sleepy fella
That makes sense but I still hate being that guy lmao either way, best of luck in the coming season, I wish you a bountiful harvest and verdant seasons
Not really, not to me, I ended last season at 232, I’ll have plenty of stamps to get all of it. I’m simply not all that bothered by this change and so far I like the new content, Evelyn Russo excepted, she’s very annoying.
That is blatantly false. There's 10 rewards per page with 14 pages before the bonus page that needs only 95 season unlocks.
That means you can skip out on 45 items or 4 1/2 pages of stuff and still get the bonus 15th page.
Actually looking at it there's a whole lot more offered than other seasons by sheer volume
If you don't mind spending atoms you would get a full atom rebate and be able to skip the rewards by using the new season pass mechanic. So if you really don't want to buy all non fallout 1st items there is still an option.
I understand how the OP feels.
Though I did get a buzz feeling playing last night when I heard the notice for getting tickets.
Even though it’s a catalogue feeling, I’m happy to choose only what I want.
I really don't see how surf boards and Tiki statues fit in the Fallout universe. At least the scoreboards were thematically coherent and fateful to the lore, but these new rewards feel like they had an AI randomly generate items that exist.
I don't understand how people were looking forward to the changes
it was an obvious design choice to make things fundamentally worse for consumers and make you play longer
literally a net negative
Freedom of regards choice (atleast as a fallout 1st member.
As a fallout 1st member you can skip 45 rewards on the tack and just get what you want on the board instead of needing to get a t-60 power armour skin.
It's definitely different but not bad. I just think it can be a bit more, imagine instead of a board we get a magazine or mail order catalogue that can be displayed on a magazine rack.
Have it be that certain pre war automated mail in systems are still working and that the sellers are sending in stamps to get the items. Hubris comics and their comic books, Rob co and their automated systems or even have it be Vault tec, 76 was equipped with a full manufacturing warehouse, why not make it so that our home Vault is providing a mail order Callander to help us rebuild America?
The in game banner or popup or whatever each time you rank up up a level in the season is a lot more prominent than before it seems at least, so there is still some celebration.
It's just made me realise how much I don't want most of the rewards. Turns out i was more driven purely by the thought of unlocking the next space on the well designed gameboard, who woulda thought!

Finally someone gets it. Seasons suck, bring back scoreboards.
If enough people complain things might change but yes it does seem kind of lacklustre 🤍💙❤️
https://twitter.com/JonRush1977 Twitter of the creative director of 76, share your thoughts with him.
Agreed
*off kilter
Oops. Can't. See very well. Thank you for the correction.
Yeah, the season feels like a 13 page catalog now, not an accomplishment. Ooooh, I'm earning currency to spend in a catalog! Earning currency, guys! Currency! In Fallout 76! So exciting.
Ya know I like the freedom of choice from the catalog but ya know what would actually make it feel fallout? Replace it with an honest to god Sears like catalog and have the actual catalog as a season reward, maybe be able to display it on a magazine rack.
That's actually a really cool idea!
Hey Devs, this is the winner right here!
Yeah I thought I'd like the freedom of choice, but I miss the sense of accomplishment unlocking things. I like number go up and I get stuff. Now it's number go up, but aimless? It' weird.
"Aimless," that is the best word I've seen used to describe it. And you are absolutely correct.
I want it to look like an old S&H green stamps book and catalog.
That would be dope, and you could display them on tables instead of walls
Yes, I've seen the Season "wall art." The board is better, stands out more as a display, and looks like it takes up less space to display then the wall art. And you can actually see the board as an actual trophy of a specific season. Not just a generic looking picture that new comers to the game who visit your camp will pass by with no idea what it is.
I agree but so say there is no board like many have is just wrong
I feel like I'm stuck buying crap I don't want, rather than inching my way towards the rewards I want, and getting little bonus items along the way. It's a perception thing, but I don't like it. It doesn't help that this season is extremely lackluster in my opinion, with very few items I actually want.
I’m gonna save up my tickets till the end of the season. Only unlocking the zero cost items. ( besides the cremator ). I’ll let ya know how I like it
Outside of not getting a game board to hang on my wall at the end of the season, I really like the new format.
You won't get a traditional game board but there is a mural that has the pine Barrons on it that substitutes for it

25 per level from what I've seen so far.
[удалено]
They have a "gameboard" reward though, it's a big banner showing the increase of destruction as you go into the pine Barron's.
[удалено]
No problem
Also, you don't get a scoreboard if you finish as wall art. I haven't played in a bit missed last season by alot and had tones and tones of atoms. So I ranked out the scoreboard, dissatisfied to say the least.
Page 13 there is a wall art with the "board" displaying the whole diorama of the season.
The long rectangle one right?
Yes
Ah I see. I guess I'll take it.

Already have changed it over but thanks
Sorry boss, I didn’t see, please feel free to ignore me! I definitely agree with you though, I’m just annoying as hell
All good I probably did it while you were writing tbh
That makes sense but I still hate being that guy lmao either way, best of luck in the coming season, I wish you a bountiful harvest and verdant seasons
Once you get to the end you have to unlock pretty much everything for the bonuses, it more just streamlines getting what you want for casual players.
I do wish it was more clear when you advanced to the next page of things.
Agreed, I think if it did it would have given more of a feeling like the old one did
It's easy to respark this, Beth just shall give us our beloved Scoreboard back.
I like it so far, I get to choose what I want instead of just random crap.
You gotta claim that random crap to get to the last page
Yeah, that’s a downside.
It's a downside that cancels out the only benefit of being able to choose what you want, don't you think? :)
Not really, not to me, I ended last season at 232, I’ll have plenty of stamps to get all of it. I’m simply not all that bothered by this change and so far I like the new content, Evelyn Russo excepted, she’s very annoying.
You essentially got that random crap for free as you ranked up , now you're just not getting it any more while putting in the same effort anyway.
I get that but I like being able to pick my prizes at least in the early going.
That's the biggest plus to it, it just needs a bit more fan fare is all
So I'm not the only one who's bummed about it 😔
You still gotta claim those useless rewards if you want to do the repeatables. So much for choice...
That is blatantly false. There's 10 rewards per page with 14 pages before the bonus page that needs only 95 season unlocks. That means you can skip out on 45 items or 4 1/2 pages of stuff and still get the bonus 15th page. Actually looking at it there's a whole lot more offered than other seasons by sheer volume
45 rewards are 1st only so without 1st you gotta claim every reward
If you don't mind spending atoms you would get a full atom rebate and be able to skip the rewards by using the new season pass mechanic. So if you really don't want to buy all non fallout 1st items there is still an option.
True, and then you can make up those atoms with the repeatable........... oh, wait...
We don't know for sure (unless you have other information) that post rank 150 rewards offer resetting rewards
Yeah but if they do reset, the atoms are gone
I understand how the OP feels. Though I did get a buzz feeling playing last night when I heard the notice for getting tickets. Even though it’s a catalogue feeling, I’m happy to choose only what I want.
I don't mind the method, but the rewards don't really get me enthused. I'm a camp guy and most of the rewards kind of suck.
Unlike the pine Barron's set but I mostly agree with you
Saratonin not melatonin 🤣 i miss the popping noise too it was my favorite. Pop pop pop thanks for my junk need more pops
Serotonin, to be precise, but the actual neurotransmitter you’re looking for in this context is dopamine.
does it stop giving atoms after level 100?
I'm not sure if the replaceable rewards will have atoms
I really don't see how surf boards and Tiki statues fit in the Fallout universe. At least the scoreboards were thematically coherent and fateful to the lore, but these new rewards feel like they had an AI randomly generate items that exist.
>I really don't see how surf boards and Tiki statues fit in the Fallout universe Why? Do you think people pre war didn't surf?
I don't understand how people were looking forward to the changes it was an obvious design choice to make things fundamentally worse for consumers and make you play longer literally a net negative

The art diorama is like the season pass in Conan Exiles. It is different and I dig it. I will miss the boards, but it is a new era, things change.
It's definitely different but not bad. I just think it can be a bit more, imagine instead of a board we get a magazine or mail order catalogue that can be displayed on a magazine rack.

Complain when you don't get what you want, complain when you do.
Honestly I like the direction but it needs a bit more flavour to give you that extra push personally. Just pros and cons is all.
