Bethesda has released a new patch for Fallout 76. This hotfix will update your game’s version to 1.0.3.17 and addresses an issue that could cause the game client to crash after selecting Exit to Desktop, as well as a setting that was left in a debug state (which could allow out of date clients to connect, breaking gameplay).
Furthermore, this patch addresses an exploit that could allow items to be duplicated, addresses an issue that could prevent high-damage and explosive weapons from dealing damage to enemies, or cause enemies to heal immediately after taking damage, and adds support for Korean language.
This hotfix will be auto-downloaded from the Bethesda launcher the next time you launch its client, and you can find its complete changelog below.

Well it’s about time they fixed some of these serious exploits and bugs.
Highly doubt even the bugfixes are bugfree themselves, since most of their bugfixes didn’t work.
A lot of players already have the best weapons and armor in the game though, thanks to duping and exploits, that are completely broken balance wise.
To throw some salt in the wounds of 76 buyers Bethesda also added like 500 bucks worth of ‘micro’ transactions to the shop at a ‘discounted’ price for a ‘fixed’ period of availability while never offering a non discounted version in the first place.
Which is literally illegal for normal shops on top of being extremely consumer unfriendly.
I don’t know who would want to buy anything in the microtransaction shop in the first place since most of the items are priced higher then the base game at this point.
Even the Canadian Devil would think this game takes it to far.
