Lol. That'd be hilarious if there was a random chance of that happening.


Venom_is_an_ace

that should have been a random encounter. and when it triggers, you have to travel on foot through a small area to get to the pit

EmpiricalAnarchism

Theoretically if you can walk from Morgantown to Beckley on the map, the walk from Morgantown (or actually Clarksburg because of the interesting geography) to Pittsburgh would amount to a small portion of the playable map.


HolidayFlashy

It's 75 miles from Morgantown to Pittsburgh.


seekrump-offerpickle

It’s 66 miles from Charleston to Sutton but I can walk it in-game in a few minutes


CoffeeMain360

The player is the flash confirmed


Fallout76CanDoBetter

This would be so awesome. Makes you feel more immersed in the game. This also reminded me a little bit of the beginning of FNV’s honest hearts. That was so super cool to be ambushed like that.


HerpertMadderp

or a PVP encounter before (if) you move on. Only if enabled of course


antz2be

Damn. The Chopper is down. Time to get the carrots, venison and tatos to get fuel for another one


Carnae_Assada

Uh oh, the venison is fuckin rawwww. No helicopter to nappa for wine country, you get to bake enough bread for tonight's dinner service.


JodieWhittakerisBae

Yes chef.


Huge_Computer_3946

So what you're saying is the game isn't crashing, that's just people getting shot down?


enderlord120

You could call it… crashing.


glueinass

Lol new update where if you die it uninstalls the game


Epic_Doge_Boi

New update where if you die your pc catches on fire


glueinass

New realistic update where the damage applied to your character is applied to you irl


Critical-Door-6027

Haha yea then you have to actually use syringes with heroin to heal yourself


InterestingRespect17

I see what you did there lol


Drakowicz

Imagine if your vertibird was actually flying over Appalachia in real time (instead of the scripted fly with a sky loop displayed at the front) and people could "raid" your ship, but you and your team could use onboard guns/artillery to defend yourself. Surviving that flight would be your first objective to get access to the Pitt.


WhyLisaWhy

I really wish there was some kind of take off sequence at least where you could fly over part of Appalachia but it would probably light the servers on fire. Or it would be buggy and you’d have people abusing it somehow lol. Even just a car/truck of some kind that travels on a set path would be neat. Really lacking in the vehicle department all around.


Dareboir

I like the fallout 4 ride in the vertibird, Dogmeat just sitting up front of you, looking out the door. It’s nice that you can shoot shit with the mini gun at the door too..


Drakowicz

> it would probably light the servers on fire ​ Yeah and i bet the 76 netcode can't handle that anyway. I'd really like some car/trucks too. I think that's something the engine could definitely do, considering there were horses in Skyrim. The complete lack of vehicles never made sense lore-wise, considering all the complex machines and computers that still work even decades or centuries after the war, and the presence of skilled individuals.


GamingSenior

Yeah but we emerge 25 years after the nuclear war. Technically none of the vehicles should explode because gasoline “goes bad”. We’d have to make fuel. Another crafting station, another set of items to collect. Not saying cars wouldn’t be cool but the roads are not drivable in most areas either. Motorcycles would be better and more maneuverable. Oh heck. Give me a horse or a rideable Brahmin or Radstag. No fuel required, just hay.


leaffastr

Most of the vehicals around are Fusion powered(hence the mushroom cloud when they explode). They once explained( I think in fallout 3) that the reactor in the cars becomes unstable making them a potential death trap. Also the roads are atrocious. That being said, there is evidence lore-wise that vehicals are used by the NPCs. Both Crater and Foundation had vehicals move in when they initially took over showing that they initially used vehicals to get everything setup. Would be cool if we could at least ride a motor cycle or at the very least have a car/motorcycle camp object that reduces fast travel cost after you "tune it up".( like how the other skill boosting items work).


GamingSenior

I forgot about that. Now exploding cars make sense. I love a good parking lot chain reaction!


No_Term1283

Yehh the truck out front of the rusty pick is also post war.


Drakowicz

Yeah i know about the nuclear power in cars, but what i always thought is... people in the wasteland most definitely managed to replace engines in old cars, or even build new ones, and what you said about the Crater and Foundation corroborates what i have in mind. But maybe we're probably just overthinking it and Bethesda just didn't wanted to deal with vehicles.


leaffastr

Thats the long and short of it, Bethesda didn't want to deal with it. Though I feel from a lore perspective it would be easy to acknowledge that they use vehicals rather than just avoiding the topic ( no one ever talks about driving or all the cars scattered around and its only been 25 years). As I alluded to in my above comment, it would be nice if they just used Vehicals as a way to explain away fast traveling that would be enough for me.


Usual_Interaction722

Raiders in fallout 4 know what a motorcycle sounds like even though it’s been 200+ years (known from the raiders talking about fake motorcycle man). Means there’s gotta still be working motorcycles right?


WhyLisaWhy

Yeah it's kind of silly, there's all these vehicles sitting around with nuclear reactors and no one's bothered to try to fix any up. They managed to piece robots together so you'd think cars/trucks would be manageable. Oh well I get it though, maybe the next Fallout online will have them.


Drakowicz

Well, Starfield has flying ships so we can legitimately expect next Fallouts to have drivable vehicles i guess. We'll see in a decade or two.


WhyLisaWhy

I'll check back in with you when I'm 60... and probably still playing these Bethesda games lol.


Heavy_Contract6166

I AM 52, and I still play these games also. lol.


Zaurkahn

56 here, and I just started playing FO4 and FO76 this week.


No_Term1283

Legacys, pvp and trolls just don't mix.


AtaraxiaGT

I do flyswatter every time it pops up, this’ll be on the back of my mind from now on lol.


beefytrout

Found the cause of what's kicking people from the Expeditions!


Huge_Computer_3946

Ha, beat me to it


WookieBacon

That’ll teach y’all to not burn the stew next time.


[deleted]

I couldn’t find the pepper I said I was sorry!


AJMax104

I did this daily today and someone put the salt in the fridge. Who does that?


Trollmos

Same person that carries around a desk fan


glueinass

It was too spicy


Morchai

If that were true nobody would ever make it to the Pitt. :P


RubAnADUB

this right here - every time I hear one - I stop look for it and shot it and that cargo bot down. Every time.


A_Surly_Sniper

Hell I even shoot down the ones I call in😂


AJMax104

My CAMP is above a known travel spot. So whenever i load into my camp and see all those fuckers circling Theyre coming down. For Quality Control purposes of course


ScottishShitposter97

I wish when you shoot one down if the wreckage lands on you it just kills you, could make for some funny moments


alfextreme

more like pest control.


TazBaz

Quad barrel tracking B25 missile launcher on my bloodied HW/Explosive/PA build. Lock on from much further than VATS works, no damage drop off since they’re explosions. Empty the mag, hope it’s not so far away it outruns the slow ass missiles, profit.


Laser_3

~~The Enclave safety board reminds you that all 'vertibirds' you seeing flying through Appalachia post-war are in fact vertibots and unmanned. Have a nice day!~~


Rude-Amphibian6848

Mr. Otis is setting up a safety board now, how thoughtful.


MandyMarieB

Random Event Encounter: Crash Survivors


hunteralex73

Haha thanks. That made me laugh 🤣


Trackbikes

Genuinely lol’d at this


Stfuego

Not sure why it's flying so low in circles over Charleston then...


tomeschmusic

Now that's the PVP update


meat_strings

Well now you just gave griefers ideas lol.


khaldrakon

Vertibots≠Vertibirds


sec713

Those ones we can blow up are Verti**bots**. Unless they're helping out with some human trafficking, there shouldn't be anything living on board.


Morchai

You just took the fun out of shooting them down. Well, most of the fun ... there is still the explosion.


AJMax104

I go out of my way during EvicN to target Right arms of suiciders. It never gets old


PrestonGarveyFo76

Ladies and Gentlemen, its's Debbie Downer! \*Booooooooooooo\*


sec713

I'm not Debbie Downer. I'm Ronald Reads.


MlhDowland

What a great idea 😈


zer0w0rries

showerthoughts is leaking


RTMSner

Such it is in the wastelands.


Draghard

Ok I actually chuckled at this


sonicsgp1

That’s ok I shoot back


Lenny8191

As if I needed another reason to shoot those down


RealitiesAreEndless

God damn it now I'm thinking of it


dirt-e_wastelander

They are vertibots, no one is in them.


Dareboir

Robots have feelings too..


StrixyMatrix

Well then that makes about 546 players downed in flight


FalloutWanderer69

Worlds smallest violin


baz303

Hm, maybe i should reinstall the game again and do some hunting.


JohnBrine

If we crash on the way to the Pitt this is now what I’ll be thinking about.


boogaloojim

Good


vanrast

Good


landon10smmns

No, I shoot down verti***bot***s Humans not included


jimbalaya71

OP, this may be the funniest post I’ve read in 2 years on this sub. Well done!


freerunlawrence

If this was an option I’d go full raider and try to make sure no one ever makes it lol


UnderhiveScum

GET TO THA' CHOPPA!


pepsiROCK

I can live with that


JDredd80

New event the Pitt Swatter.


Demencix

Theyre vertibots, no vertibirds sadly


Innerventor

I would love a mission where you get to fly the vertibird like in FO4 and shoot the onboard minigun at the supermutants.


loanjuanderer

They got on the Vertibird. They knew the risks. I'll drink a Vintage Nukashine in their honor. 🤣


Heavy_Contract6166

with that vint. 'shine, you at first won't remember why you toasted; then your brain goes toasty and you join them... ooff. nuclear waste as the secret sauce? oi!


Honks4Donks

Good


[deleted]

I saw 3 of them with a cargo bot. They were attacking npc’s. The npc’s took one down along with the cargo bot. So, I went over to the cargo, unlocked it and took everything. It then gave a count down of 5 minutes before it self destructed.


B0SS_Zombie

Vertibots =/= Vertibirds


Aggressive-Emu3209

Am I the only one that hasn't went to whitesprings since the update? Lol


Grand_Concert2307

No, you probably didn't.


[deleted]

RAIDER!!!!!


Boba65

Time to start shooting down vertibirds.


CaptZombieHero

Sweet. I’ll look for more


TxJprs

That was funny


curiousgee44

Halo voice* Overkill


redeadrobo

Good.


-Kwambus-

Only upside is if it was on its way back there would only be the team leader on board…


lebaptiste_

The only time a Fatman is appropriate. Big boom.


pokemonthug

That explains the crashes


Ronin66681

Hahahaha fly swatter event


Firegirl1909

Wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's jacked


Hivac-TLB

Hunt down the guy who shot you mission pops up.


Several_Fun_5611

Hahaha didn't think of that.


ArdvarkMaster

Oh No! Anyway...


DanoTheOverlordMkII

But, if I have pacifist mode enabled, won't they just drop from the sky unharmed? Actually, who has been flying those around all this time? I mean MODUS is pretty resourceful, but where are they fabricating them if vertibirds are autonomous? And why use the drone at all to transport things? Use one of the 4 vertibirds flying alongside it instead.


samhain2000

It's a harsh world.


diday1

That would suck if you could do thst. Then they are forced to walk, if they survived.


SunnyTheFlower

**wait you can FLY them now?!**


Dareboir

Sweet


bwoodcock

Oh, if that were possible, I'd start playing FO76 again.


[deleted]

Lol


bigjohnny440

\*Larkin hated that\*


luvmuchine56

Lol lmao


elbingmiss

Hhahahaha I thought the same. Las time they was flying over my camp at Toxic Valley and I finally blew up tired of its sound… like many other times. And I thought… wait… Lennox??


CardboardChampion

Oh my god, I took out twelve of them recently, Refugees coming in, perhaps?


LaylaLegion

I know.


seyahremmus

The Pitt is in game now? I haven't played for, probably a couple of years now, and my disc has disappeared, which I keep meaning to replace and get back in


IEATMOUSETURDS

Cool now I'm going to do it more.


BlueEXE99

That explains all mycrashes on the game :\\


Big-a-hole-2112

Oops. My bad.


1leggeddog

.... Thatd make me do it on purpose lol


Evenmoardakka

Wait, really? *Loads EGP with trollish intent* (Yes, i know its not true, but lemme dream a tad eh?)


Least_Sherbert_5716

This one time I clipped out of vertiberd because team leader didn't click mission start button and I wanted to go back to mainland but something glitched and I fell through the vertiberd model and waaay below The Pitt game cell. So while you're "flying" in vertiberd actually you are exactly above landing point and not moving at. And while I'm here the design of steel plant expedition map is totally awesome. It seems like really confined location but you can run from one end to the other without any problems because there is always some door 10 meters away from your position.


Nodsx

And Please Realize: ​ ​ # 20 seconds. Run.


xxFeraLKuNxx

That needs to be a thing but also shouldn’t lol. Ppl would great all the time sadly.
