Yup, aliens are back. I would like to take this auspicious occasion to once again restate my call to switch mutated events from the top of the hour to the twenties or the forties so that when top of the hour events like Aliens, Fasnacht and Mothman are active they aren't actually displacing something better, but rather supplementing it.


bytethesquirrel

Why not just mutate them?


RedditorDisrespecter

A month ago I would have been sooo on board but in the games current state we would get our cheeks clapped, respectfully.


tiffzoe

And i want that pls


CloneTrooper8756

Or Mutated Seasonal events


HankShanklin

I'd like to see mutated events appear as randomly as the events themselves. So, it could be on the hour, or 20/40 minutes, seasonal, non-seasonal, not just as part of a week of mutations. Maybe a week of double mutated events would be good.


man_from_utopia

Haha be funny to watch the noobs die over and over again. ...along with me.


Daunted1314

Man I'm level 20 and went to an alien event. I think I flopped over 5 times


man_from_utopia

Lol nothing like rag dolling in front of the whole server! I did it a few times tonight.


TAJack1

Man, I'm level 59 and I have never done an alien event before and was just in disbelief with how much shit was going on my screen.


CozyThurifer

LMAOOOO


dragonchasers

Did somebody call my name? I did the event twice and I think I died like 8 times between the two. Also we failed it twice so I'm thinking I wasn't the only one dying a lot. A few higher levels in power armor were trying to carry half a dozen of us level 15-35 noobs but it just wasn't happening. Thanks to those brave souls for trying! (This was on Xbox.)


Next_Software8418

Im lvl 59 running into those events in full PA and I ran outta bullets and ragdolled like 5 times😭


Brute_Zombie

I'm level 160 and I don't get how people don't get melted in events. I used secret service armour and still got melted fast. Not sure what else I can do besides power armour


man_from_utopia

For the Aliens you can put up Electric Asorbtion in the Legendary Perks if you are in your power armour. Because aliens are energy damage their hits have a chance of healing u & charging your fusion core.


Brute_Zombie

To be honest I always forget about legendary cards. Might make a build around that for the event. I have so many cores at 100% that I don't even know what to do with too


dmarsee96

Honestly, I don’t even care. I’m having an absolute blast sprinting in like a lunatic with a shotgun


Late_Reference6758

this made me laugh sm lol


MidnightFireHuntress

Jesus you guys are so hostile... https://i.imgur.com/ZOTDoqF.png Sorry, I didn't know everyone knew, no need to send me nasty DMs, god damn... Edit: Thank you for the kind words, I want to tell new players that this one asshole is NOT what the community is normally like, looking at his post history the guy doesn't even play Fallout 76, he just shits on it for reasons beyond me lol, this is 100% A Reddit thing and not a Fallout 76 problem at all, people don't act like this in game.


lymeeater

You just know that guy is the crustiest looking loser ever lol


MADMACmk1

I think he just needs a hug. Lack of affection in childhood can make some individuals prone to angry outbursts.


mont3000

I think he needs a beat down.


skallywagUwU

I had no idea as I'm a new player. Thank you I do love aliens 👽


Stupid_Ned_Stark

“the bored” 😂


Vivec_lore

That's how you can tell they're old and crusty 


HudsonBoBudson

And illiterate.


Cryocynic

He's probably also very board.


Clubbythaseal

What a shitty DM to get :( Just wanted to say thanks for making the post. I hadn't known the event was out!


trinithmournsoul

I second this


No_Doubt_About_That

Reply with okey dokey


Relevant_Camera_9132

You’re totally good man. Not everyone looks at 76 news, thanks for informing us 😎❤️


sodantok

It goes without saying but you did report that ahole right?


LegZestyclose4030

Report and move on. They're scared of being judged so they DM'd you where no one could see them.


bondingo

Imagine thinking it’s spelt “bored”. Rude AND a moron. Edit: Autocorrect


Therocknrolclown

Some of the worst people who used to play FO76 are back with all the new people , screw em, thanks for the update!


NefariousnessTop8716

Damn man, that sucks. You show more restraint than me though, I would not have hidden the name.


Talonzor

That dm gives out serious incel angry at everything but especially myself energy


Solidus-Prime

Weird as hell... Ignore the prick. I've been playing since day 1 and found the link helpful.


Ohwell78526

I didn’t know so thank you. What a miserable gross wierdo that sent that dm.


iPrintScreen

Calls you dumb but yet can't differentiate between bored and board, epic gamer moment


terminal8

I didn't know! Thanks OP!


SuspiciousMothmaam

I knew nothing about this until now so thanks for your info!


ThyBuffTaco

I didn’t know! Thanks!


Zombie_Reaper

Apparently that troglodyte needs to grow up a little. I am new and had no idea there was a new event, so thank you for posting cause I've been looking at all the new stuff.


the_hoopy_frood42

Don't take it personally. Some people are just miserable.


blackop

Yup I didn't know so thank you stranger.


Diamondhands_Rex

Report that asshole fuck that I don’t want people like that in this community


JiggyTurtle

It's always the illiterate


heartthew

that idiot can't even spell. leave them to their problems. I am glad you're excited!


Dr_Peslis

Congratulations, you found the 1 guy out of the hundreds I've encountered in-game that runs a trap camp.


00000000000000001313

dare them to dm me


Vibrascity

LMAOOOO What in the fuck


TroubledFuture532

He needs some milk


GarrysModRod

I actually didn't know about this so thank you. I wouldn't worry about that incel that messaged you, sounds like he's more upset that you're a woman rather than you posting this, which makes him even more pathetic


Potential_Region8008

What’s his username?


MemnocOTG

Simply put - some people are raging assholes


MethodCute4954

I didn’t know, just ignore the chronically online people


Madrider760

I didn't know, fuck that loser. Glad to hear about this while I'm at work.


PantsAreOffensive

I am a new player and I didn’t know. That guy needs to touch grass


realmufasa

That guy clearly doesn’t live in a world with social interaction. Probably has issues at home. Almost feel bad for him. What a nut


OMYBLUEBERY_

I feel it. I made a suggestion for overhauling the end game a little and got told to "just build a house". And then got downvoted into oblivion 💀


howdarestthou

Honestly, don’t hide their ID. We all need to know who to block.


Raoul_Dukes_Mayo

Hey - THANK YOU for posting this. I’m still in my first few months and haven’t done aliens yet! I’m stoked for some new weird shit! Hell yeah!! 👽👽👽


AndradeAssault

Trust me, this guy definitely mad about not having enough fusion cores. Seriously though, that guy needs to reconsider his life choices


roboarcadia76

That is a shame and doesn't reflect the community. Thanks for the share 🙂


Slight_Hovercraft236

What a horrible wee prick...


upholsteryduder

I had no idea until today, been playing since BETA, that guy can choke on a whole bag of dicks


Keinulive

My chargers are back, yes keep hitting my PA with your scawwy alien blasters


Lijtiljilitjiljitlt

I... forgot you could do that. Full fusion cores, here I come.


Mommypantss

Dang let them be excited I didn’t know till this post


Adventurous-Ant8016

Been looking forward to this since I re-downloaded the game last week. Really hoping I get the new alien blaster and I'm missing some attachments for it.


Spartan1088

Yeah man those attachments are hard to get. I need em too.


DistantBethie

New rewards!!


Lady_bro_ac

There are!?


khaldrakon

5 new plans Edit: 6 new plans, forgot I had already crossed one out that I got


Lady_bro_ac

Oh sweet I had no idea


BartholomewAlexander

what are the plans


khaldrakon

Alien head lamp, alien table, alien target practice poster, glowing flatwoods monster lamp, teal hazmat suit, and zenith alien blaster paint


BartholomewAlexander

those all sound awesome. thanks!


DarkUtensil

"stop spamming the bored"... I'm not bored; you bored?


blkmmb0

I think the people downvoting you don't understand what you're referencing.


DarkUtensil

I'm sure you're right. The quote should have given it away. 😎


blkmmb0

You'd think it would have lol


Nordic4tKnight

How bullet spongy are aliens?


peapeenut

Just got done playing it first time. Level 62 with not very great weapons. It was basically like a kid running around with a BB gun while everyone else had mini guns and colorful ass t armor


DalesDrumset

Go get the plasma caster from Minerva and turn these alien fucks to goo.


panicked228

*Very*


NoShow4Sho

New to the game, came from the hype of the show haha. I’m excited!! Any drops I should focus on trying to get from any veteran players?


mrwafu

I assume you mean you want info from veteran players about good drops, rather than you want drops from veteran players (which I assume the rude person assumed- apparently sometimes new players follow around veteran players begging and it gets annoying). The alien blaster is the best (I think) pistol, check Angry Turtle on YouTube, I think he did a video on it recently. The other stuff is cosmetic/not useful. You can’t choose what you get so just join a Casual team and participate in every event you can.


NoShow4Sho

Yes you guessed correctly lol, I tried to rewrite it but I couldn’t find a better way of saying it off the top of my head, so I was like “they’ll know what I mean” Clearly I was mistaken lol But noted, I’ll check up on some good rolls for the alien blaster once I’m off of work and try and grind some events :) thanks!


Crashen17

The Alien Disintegrator (the rifle) is also the strongest energy rifle and the only "silent" one. So it's a great pick for a stealth rifleman.


Mech_Pretendgineer

is the plan for building that a random drop from the event? I received some for the automatic receiver for that gun twice but nothing for the base itself


ConcertDesperate3342

I got the plan for weapon two hours ago


CozyThurifer

Thank you uncle


astroblu18

Back from being a player at launch, didn’t know this, thanks!


Glittering-Stretch75

First Alien event for me, looking forward to hopping on when I get home 😁


P_Larue

And those aliens are everywhere, spamming other events. Campfire tales jumped a few levels of difficulty now that there are aliens spawning in, and even random events have alien visitors. I've even come across them when exploring out and about.


swanqueen23

It’s so glitchy and kicked me several times. I wasn’t able to finish the event


Krysta-Kills

Same. Very frustrating


sgtpepper911

Time to send these ET’s home! First time player at level 47, looking forward to the XP and loot.


ForwardState

Wish this event followed the Mutation Invasion model where we don't get duplicate plans until we have learned every plan in the loot pool. Mothman Equinox had all of the new rewards with the Mutation Invasion model. So we are going to end up with a ton of worthless duplicate plans searching for that one worthwhile plan.


GymRatGuadagni

Returning player here, and the new event is so glitchy it crashes my game before the third wave is finished, so I don't even get rewarded for participating. I don't know what to do about it, I'm probably going to stick to fo4 and new Vegas lol


TwanLearnsPython

Aliens? New Player here but…..ALIENS?!


TTBurger88

What started as an easter egg random encounter in Fallout 1 morphed into the aliens being part of the lore maybe. If you play Fallout 3 The Mothership Zeta DLC is pretty cool.


renome

👽👩‍🚀🔫👩‍🚀


GodHand7

Wait till you hear about the black magic ritual sacrifices from companies towards an evil interdimensional entity (fallout 3 and 4)


LuxanQualta

Yup, tis. For those new to the game, there is a Community Calendar over on the Bethesda Official Discord that gives the dates for special events and more that might be worth a look. [https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1096164127950520510/1217941815530098738/Fallout76\_Season16\_CommunityCalendar-03.png?ex=66300bb5&is=662eba35&hm=c2c9cf10c3b457f965b193bbf06a7a8a4f3f3e5d6e92495f23927e32e8894c97&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1226&height=690](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1096164127950520510/1217941815530098738/Fallout76_Season16_CommunityCalendar-03.png?ex=66300bb5&is=662eba35&hm=c2c9cf10c3b457f965b193bbf06a7a8a4f3f3e5d6e92495f23927e32e8894c97&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1226&height=690) According to that calendar Treature Hunters and Meat Week are going to be back soon too. Then in June we'll see a updated and much faster paced Fasnacht returning.


base-icks

This link isn't work for me


LuxanQualta

You may need to go join the Bethesda Discord Server then. [https://discord.gg/AxwHGnVS](https://discord.gg/AxwHGnVS)


themfroberto

I haven't played in probably a month but I use the VATS Unknown as my main gun so thank you for posting this! See you nerds this weekend on PS5!


emrickgj

The alien event keeps crashing my game so I can't complete it unfortunately. Feel like I'm not the only one though, by the time I relogged and saw them completing the even only half the original force remained.


MayaWrection

As a new player is there anything I should know about this event? Do’s and Dont’s?


Rude_Awareness2424

Wait so I can get a disintegrator rifle now? 😍


sirlancer

Any good rewards to look out for?


SnooObjections2938

I hate alien invaders.... Also sorry if I messed up the event. My low level player tried staying up high with a sniper rifle but they still managed to find me and overwhelmed me 😔😔


MrDude65

Anywhere to see drop rates for plans? Would love a disintegrator


JeepNaked

Cool, I didn't know.


astroblu18

Anyone know which power armor sets can use that skin? I’ve seen some that aren’t for all in the shop, but don’t state that in their description


Buschkoeter

You mean the alien skin? I think that's one you can put on any PA. Relatively sure, but not a 100% :)


ddynamite123

every type of power armor except for union, strangler heart and hellcat power armor, the red and white alien power armor is only available through the atomic shop whenever it appears there but you can get a blue and white variant of the armor by doing daily ops


DefiantDawnfeather

Sweet! Hopefully some good stuff, I haven't played in years so I'm not sure what the events entail just yet, thanks for the heads up though!


SrGeof

I didn’t know, so I really appreciate you sending this. Sorry someone was so rude, you did not deserve that even if everyone did know. You’re awesome, please don’t stop participating in the sub, people who post are keeping the sub and community and excitement alive!


highkeysus69

THANK GOD. I need that alien blaster cryo mag YESTERDAY!


[deleted]

If you're having trouble getting it to drop, check people's vendors in the next few days. The mods tend to get put up for pretty cheap once the event has been rolling for a little while.


Apprehensive-Log-916

Nice!


Chivalry_Timbers

Anybody know if the Alien Disintegrator is available this time around? I’ve been wanting to get it for a while


Launchpad1

It's available every Alien Invasion event


Ok-Judge8977

I did not know this so I appreciate giving me something to be hyped about after work!


DownDStairsIsReal

Thanks for the update. I wasn’t gonna hop on today, but now I’ll do an alien event or two!


Dr_Peslis

Thank you!


shinnith

The fucking DM😭 Is that guy tweaking what is wrong with him seriously


HaibaraAi90

Did they add any new plans I can’t get the thing to load when I click it


khaldrakon

Yep 6 new plans


Zizakkz

I didn't know. But I also don't care as that event was lackluster to me. I hope it's revamped.


-Captain-

What is the circuitry aliens drop good for?


Vibrascity

LETS GOOOO ALIUM! ALIUM! ALIUM!


Mountain-jew87

Missed this so many times, glad it’s come back around.


KiryuTheDark

Thanks for sharing! 😁


CookieMiester

I didnt know alien event was back, thanks :)


TheBacklogGamer

Are these events good for legendaries? I need more modules. 


ForeverSkittles-

I've been playing this game off and on for years but this is the first time I've seen this event, seems pretty good for exp if you can tag enough enemies.


CharlesMadison

I am sort of a new player (2.5 months) and did NOT know about this. Also that guy is just a loser. Unfortunately there are some horrible people out there that refuse to grow tf up. Keep up the good work! 👍🏼 You tell us about those gosh darn aliens whether we want to hear it or not!


2xthepride2xthefall

Anybody got a clue on the RNG for items/plans? I guess my main question is will it be like Mothman Equinox where one is better if not learning the plans in order to maximize plan value? Thx


Emmehsaur

Not them using "bored" instead of "board" 🤣😭


IllustriousRemove364

I love this event! It’s absolute chaos. I appreciate the reminder! What is your favorite set up for running this event if you’re not bloodied?


Moturnach

That's quite awesome news, thanks!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Auxilium1

I love the event. Aside from the almost 100% chance of crashing during it though. First drop was Teal Hazmat, followed by the Alien Disintegrator and then Asteroid and Alien Cry Mag. Gone from 41-45 as well. Love the look of the Teal Hazmat.


ST00NtheG00N

Lucky! Been doing the event all day just for the Teal Hazmat Suit and still haven't got it 🙃


Auxilium1

If you're on PS5, I can make one and drop it for you. Unless you want to hunt for it yourself, which I totally get.


ST00NtheG00N

I would totally take you up on that offer, but xbox, unfortunately 😭. Thank you tho! No worries, I should get it eventually. If my rng would stop being dogwater lol.


ST00NtheG00N

Update: Just got it my guy! Ridin' the high rn lol


Auxilium1

Nice! Congrats!


Mia_Cauliflower

Oh how I’d love to rinse this all through the night but I have to be up at 5am for work god dammit.


No-Blueberry-3329

wow, so didnt log in yet so didnt see aliens is back. the tearing into the guy sows alot of people here are the pop up and destroy your camp. Cause you cant just fix it... and really, did his mistake warrant that response? how bad do you flip on someone who mics up and says queen is active when cranberry bog has been nuked.... wow. need more fallout button pushing time. maybe finish that storyline... pick your side.... you know, the thing that is why we are all here...


devilz3431

Thank God they nerfed then. They used to one shot kill me. Now it take about 5. 😄 I still die pretty quickly but that comes with a bloodied build


GoblinMeatstick

I had no idea the event was ever a thing, so thanks for letting me know!


Kleszcz_

Does anyone else encounter an issue where after the first wave guns stop doing damage? I get damage numbers but enemy hp doesn't reflect them. Is this just lag?


LifeguardGlum4781

Newish player, level 75. What's the alien event?? I'm intrigued


Bear_Ambrosia

I like these post because I in fact did not know!


TomaStheWise

Hooray! First time joining the event, the game crashes. I load back in, the game freezes. Honestly, i cant be the only one.. the PlayStation app for this game is the literal Worst.


LunarNan

Do we get alien blaster drops in this?


tomcruisesPC

Cue Aliens history channel guy


voreo

fun event but my god i stink at this, getting absolutely melted XD


Comfortable-Smoke336

I play by myself, just join casual teams....and am subscribed monthly so could play on a private server if I wanted to...having said all of that I've not encountered any asshats yet. I'm sure they're out there tho. Loving the game! Shied away for 6 years as I prefer my wasteland solo....wish I'd have jumped in sooner seeing how amazing it is. Happy hunting all.


JoshisJoshingyou

Woo hoo may your cup runnith over with new plans!


SchroedingersSphere

Any advice for those of us just now leaving Vault 76?


Fattygrapes

Normally, when someone's upset, they shoot the messenger, but im very happy with this, so I think I'm gonna kiss the messenger.


Turnoverwig51

I’m excited, but it’s telling me it can’t connect to my account when I try to sign in.


Seminole1046

I didn’t know about this . So thanks!


ddynamite123

well it's gonna be awkward when people see me walking around in my alien power armor


FabulousAdvisor4306

Well I for one didn't know about this thank you for the intfo


BakedCashews

just did it right now :)


Wesudesuu

Every time i l have done this event so far its been level 700s spamming fatmans and cremators 😭😭😭


RudeandOffensive

Thank you for this post. It's good to know.


Auxilium1

I've had the last boss bug out into the ground twice and it resulted in failing the event. That's on top of the nonstop crashes after the update.


k0alaFRESH

Appreciate it! Just coming back after a long break, I hadn’t been keeping up.


Noah5678

Time to grind out the alien blaster and disinagrator and mods!


_SomeRedditUser

And I got the Alien Blaster plan in my first event


Deadsea-1993

Hell yeah ! Only thing better would have been Meat Week. I just love those events and rewards ! Hopefully they balance Alien events this time though cause they went overboard last time with them and carried the Zeta Invaders event far too much. It didn't help that when Meat week was canceled that they replaced it with the Zeta Invaders event all over again and people got burned out. Here's hoping for some new events with them


Epicbluefirefly

I diddnt know about it til I seen this post so ppl being rude was/is wack


pwnjones

Thanks friend, appreciate the post!


Herterich

We should beat his stupid ass in his DMs but he would cry and report.


walterbacons

Just started playing again, can I get the alien blaster plans from this event? If so, how do I?


Onigumo-Shishio

My favorite event tbh I'm looming forward to the new and old alien rewards (I want another Laser door lol) Plus ME WANT ALIEN ARMOR


LeTrav_

What is a recommended level for this?


chronicwastelander

Yeah I've completed 2 without blue screen.


Low-Base4854

Have yet to loot an alien blaster from the event


Llivia1990

this event is so fun!


HAKAISPARDA

Anyone else noticed the atomic shop didn't update with the event launch


Izanagi553

Those aliens hit HARD and tank shotgun blasts like MFers


Risky49

Yeah it’s my first alien event… joined in, killed like 3 aliens and my game crashed. Tried to load it twice to an infinite black loading screen with a little vault tec logo mocking me Is my character lost or will I just have to wait until the event is over before I’ll actually load in?!?


Effective-Celery8053

Yeah I got fucked up while trying to get my ID at the DMV 😭


TechJoe90

Hopefully I can sort my pc out in time. Started playing silly buggers today 🤦‍♂️ says critical process died on a BODn then goes to automatic repair wanting my outlookpassword that it says is never right even after changing it on my phone 🤦‍♂️😢


James_Sarin

I use power armor with energy absorb legendary perk, these events are just healing me. But there is so much light that the game can't keep up and crashes. So many times I come back to seeing a bunch of players standing disconnected.


TheMischievousGoyim

God nothing much better than killing aliens! Aliens get out! Specially the illegal ones ;)


gonzosoc

The event should NEVER EVER EVER cancel itself without finishing. WTF? ?? WTF is wrong with the devs making an event that cancels so we waste out time.
