Fallout 76: Patch 13 notes – September 10, 2019
We're releasing Patch 13 today, which brings quality of life improvements to the event system with "Public Events." It also adds the Morgantown Nuclear Winter map, design and balance changes, another large wave of bug fixes, and much more to Fallout 76. Read on to catch the patch notes for today's update.

Patch highlights

 * Public Events: Select events are now "Public Events" and have received quality of life improvements, including free Fast Travel, no more dropped Junk on death in Adventure Mode, additional details on the Map, and more.
 * Design and Balance Updates: Energy Weapons now benefit from Armor Penetration, we've increased Vault 94 Mission XP rewards, the Purveyor has a few new Legendary Weapons in her arsenal, added we've added Small Backpacks, among other changes.
 * (Nuclear Winter) New Map - Morgantown: Continue your quest to become the Overseer of Vault 51 in Morgantown, featuring diverse terrain and new enemy creatures to overcome.
 * (Nuclear Winter) Global Matchmaking: We've implemented matchmaking improvements so that you can compete against Overseer Candidates from around the world.
 * (Nuclear Winter) New Limited-Time Rewards: We've added six new Morgantown-themed rewards you can unlock for free by completing Nuclear Winter Challenges!

Patch version
Download sizes for this update will be less than 7 GB for consoles and under 1.5 GB for PC.
 * PC: 1.2.3.9
 * PS4: 1.2.3.11
 * Xbox: 1.2.3.11

General updates
Please Note: As part of today's maintenance, we have deployed a fix for the Power Armor system that will unstack Chassis that were never meant to stack. This issue affected approximately 9% of Characters. - With this change, some players may notice the following upon initial login after the patch: - An additional empty Chassis may appear in the Character's inventory, Stash, or both. - Power Armor may have been unequipped and moved into the Character's inventory.

Additionally, we are still actively working to address the control lock that can occur when exiting Power Armor and plan to release a hotfix as soon as possible once we are confident that our fix will fully resolve this issue. Thank you for your continued patience.

Public events
The Events system has received quality of life improvements, based largely on community feedback, and select events have been reclassified as "Public Events." These events feature new UI improvements, as well as several mechanics adjustments.

UI improvements

 * Public Events feature a larger and more noticeable Map icon compared to normal events.
 * Highlighting an active Public Event on the Map now displays a dialog box that offers more details, such as:
 * How many players are currently participating.
 * How much time has passed since the event began.
 * A general difficulty rating, which is based more on the complexity of the event's objectives than the difficulty of the enemies.
 * The type of gameplay offered by that event (Boss, Defense, etc.).
 * Public Event Loading Screens now display more detailed event descriptions, including tips for success.
 * When a Public Event begins, all players on that world who have reached level 7 and are not inside a Vault will receive an announcement near the top-left corner of the screen.

Mechanics changes

 * Fast Travel to Public Events is now free.
 * Players no longer drop Junk on death during Public Events in Adventure Mode.
 * Instead, the respawn timer will increase with each successive death, up to a max of 20 seconds.
 * Public Events feature a period of time that players can use to gather and coordinate before starting an event.
 * After entering the event area or Fast Traveling to the event, a timer will be displayed to show how long players have left to group up and make plans.
 * Players can complete a starting objective to begin an event early. For example, turning on the boilers during Tea Time.
 * If no players are in the event area and no one has completed the event's starting objective when the timer expires, the event will shut down.
 * All Public Events, except Scorched Earth, Encryptid, and Seasonal Events, now share the same cooldown period from the start of the previous event until the next begins.

 * Small Backpacks have 50% of the carry capacity provided by a standard Backpack.
 * Small Backpacks can be equipped with all the same Mods as a standard Backpack.
