Fallout 76 launches Milepost Zero content, players disappointed

On September 3, Fallout 76 released its Milepost Zero update, which was expected to introduce a new feature allowing players to build and customize Caravan Outposts. This feature was highly anticipated as it would enable players to escort Brahmin across Skyline Valley, providing a new way to engage with the game and earn Supplies currency for recruiting specialty vendors. However, Bethesda announced that this key feature would not be available at launch, disappointing many players who had been looking forward to it. The announcement regarding the delay of the Caravan feature was made quietly, with Bethesda stating that it would be coming later in September without specifying an exact date. This lack of clarity led to confusion and frustration among the player community, as many felt that the communication surrounding the delay was inadequate. Community manager Richard 'Ghostly Rich' Stanford faced backlash for the way the announcement was made, with players criticizing the company for being disingenuous. Despite the absence of the Caravan feature, the update still included the introduction of a new Legendary crafting system, which would replace Legendary Cores with Legendary Particles. However, the specifics of what content would be available at launch remained unclear until the patch notes were released. Overall, the launch of the Milepost Zero update has been met with disappointment due to the missing Caravan feature, highlighting the importance of clear communication from developers to their player base.
