BODY: Fallout 76 is about eight years old, and in an interview with GAME Watch during Fallout Day week, Bethesda Game Studios creative director Jonathan Rush talked about where C.A.M.P. building and raids go next.
On building, Rush said the earlier C.A.M.P. Revamp update was a first step, and that the eventual goal is to let builders create what they imagine. The team is looking at increasing C.A.M.P. capacity and at a Transform Gizmo (rotation tool) that can rotate parts vertically as well as horizontally. He described these as ideas at this stage, said the team is testing flipping parts upside down, and said he is confident it can be done. New small decorative items will keep arriving with updates, and Shelter interiors will get a fix so that placed objects cast proper shadows instead of looking like they float. He also said the team's ideas often come from its own wishes as players.
On raids, Rush said new raids are planned, and the plan is harder raids with better rewards rather than simply more of them. Adjustments to existing raids are under discussion, and he admitted he struggled with the current ones himself. He said details of the next raid will come soon.
In 2027 the Fallout series turns 30. Rush said a large celebration honoring all the games is planned in Washington D.C., and said it is at the rumor stage, but he may appear on stage himself. He said he feels strong passion for the series' world and story from the Japanese community and enjoys the C.A.M.P.s Japanese players build, but that as far as he knows there are no real-world events planned in Japan at present.
The insider take
The Fallout collab cafe is running in Omotesando, Tokyo, from October 22, with new merchandise revealed daily during Fallout Day week. Rush's building comments are framed as ideas and plans, not release dates.
