This is my wasteland,
This is your wasteland,
We group and we fight mutants and beasts, friend,
With level scaling you won’t be flailing –
This waste was made for you and me.
Also the update comes for free.
It turns out that there’s at least a little more to be said about how Fallout 76’s One Wasteland update will work on a whole, which is why instead of just a pithy bit of doggerel to a familiar term the developers have put together a whole preview of the update. But that’s still the gist of it.
Yes, the point is that everything across the wasteland (of which there is just the one) will now scale for each player individually, which ensures that you and a friend who is either much higher or lower than you are will both be able to contribute to fights and explore across a large stretch of the world. That extends to how loot is rewarded, too. So there will be more world to see and more opportunity to make friends. It seems like a good idea, doesn’t it? We even had an interview about it.
