UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS

Once in a Blue Moon

[previewyoutube=qXxI54uQzq0;full][/previewyoutube]

The Blue Ridge Caravan is back and needs your help with its expanding business! Our Once in a Blue Moon update introduces two new Cryptids, Public Events, Side Quests, Rewards, a Daily Ops Mutation, and more.

New Public Events

Vinny Costa, head of operations for the Blue Ridge Caravan Company is impatient with the members of the caravan, believing they're not pulling their own weight and contributing enough. Work with the caravan members to get them back up to speed and earn some sweet Blue Ridge Caravan-themed items as a reward!

[h4] Beasts of Burden [/h4]

After a trade deal goes wrong, Luca Costa finds himself in need of some help. A group of local Cultists has stolen his Brahmin and cargo of makeshift explosives. His Uncle Vinny will not be happy if he catches wind of it. The problem is, he's too injured to get his supplies himself!

Guided by Luca through a two-way radio, you'll need to infiltrate the Cultist's den, lay down explosives, and reclaim his pack Brahmin! Be extra careful not to disturb the local wildlife, however, as Cultists have recently noticed strange rumblings in the woods nearby.

[h4] Safe and Sound [/h4]

Blue Ridge has renovated the Middle Mountain Cabins to be their latest and greatest Brahmin pitstop, but they just can't seem to keep the local critters at bay. The Repeller Speaker system they use to repel the creatures and keep their Brahmin safe has been damaged. To retake the pitstop and create a safe haven for their Brahmin to rest, they will need your help! Clear out the creatures, defend the Repeller, and the Blue Ridge Caravan will reward you handsomely for your assistance!

Costa Business Daily Quests

Resident grouch and taskmaster, Vinny Costa, hasn't been happy with the performance of his employees lately, and he'd be happy to throw some caps at anyone willing to solve the problem. Players can learn all about what has the caravanners' boots stuck in the mud, and collect some unique rewards along the way, in this series of one-off Daily Quests. Unlike other Dailies, players will only be able to complete this series of 7 quests once, but each has a unique Blue Ridge-themed reward, ranging from C.A.M.P. items to outfits.

[h4] Unmasking the Myth [/h4]

Longtime players that have completed content from all over 76's history may find a special side quest waiting for them after completing all of the Costa Business quests...

New Cryptids!

Cryptozoologists rejoice! Our two new Public Events introduce The Blue Devil and Ogua, two Cryptids based in real West Virginian folk lore.

[h4] The Blue Devil [/h4]

Based on the real-life West Virginian Cryptid, this massive dog-like creature will test your wits! Its terrifying howl will send your character into a panicked mad dash for the Vault!

[h4] Ogua [/h4]

Also known in real life as the Monongahela River Monster, this reclusive creature will retreat into its shell to shield itself from incoming damage, be sure to time your attacks carefully!

New Rewards

Braving battle against these new Cryptids and Public Events is not without reward! Complete these events to collect a host of new items, from Cryptid plushies to outfits, C.A.M.P. items, weapon skins, and more!

Season 13: Shoot for the Stars!

[previewyoutube=so-dOuTN-YI;full][/previewyoutube]

Who can resist the allure of the Hollywood sign? Grab a bag of popcorn and settle in, this new Season will bring some of the iconic outfits, props, and more from the silver screen right to your C.A.M.P!

Season 13 Rewards

This season is packed with Hollywood-themed items to glam up your dwelling! From a Jewelry Stand that displays your backpack flairs, to movie projectors, pyrotechnics, Monster Costume, and everything in between! You'll be a dazzling star in no time!

New C.A.M.P. Items: Create your own movie set with items like the Western Movie Set Façade, Director's chair, Studio Camera, and more!

New Armor Paints: Become the daredevil you were meant to be with our various Stuntman Armor paints including the Stuntman Marine, Stuntman Secret Service, and many more!

New Ally: Joey Bello! This wise-cracking self-proclaimed "Funny man" has lived a life full of laughter and loss and is ready to bring the laughter part to your C.A.M.P! Joey loves a good bubblegum wrapper joke and is quick to diffuse any tense situation with humor. This class act is sure to leave you in stitches… even if the cut is his doing.

Daily Ops

Look out, cadets! A new dangerous mutation has been added to the Daily Ops.

New Mutation: Danger Cloud

Enemies have seeds embedded in their skin, periodically they will radiate a spore cloud around them that damages the player, reducing their AP regen and max AP. Plan your routes and load-outs carefully to withstand these infested beings.

Design Changes and Improvements

We've made a number of gameplay design changes and improvements, from removing Fuel costs for Expeditions to adding in more detailed weapon and mod descriptions so you can better cater your build for your unique playstyle.

Expeditions

Following player feedback, we have made adjustments to Expeditions and their associated Daily Fuel Quests.

Removed Ultracite Battery Charge: Players are no longer required to complete Fuel Quests to launch an Expedition as a Team Leader with a fully charged Ultracite Battery. Instead, players can start an Expedition at any time and still be eligible to receive the maximum Mission Rewards.

Ultracite Battery Charge is no longer a currency that is granted or tracked on the player.

Fuel Quests No Longer Mandatory: All three Fuel Quests are now Daily Quests. Only one Fuel Daily Quest will be active per day.

Rewards have been updated to be more in line with other Dailies.

Reduced Stamp Costs: We have reduced the Stamp cost from Giuseppe on items.

Ashes to Fire now grants an increased number of Stamps and Legendary Items in its rewards.

Weapon and Armor Descriptions

We have overhauled the way weapon and armor information is displayed both in the inspect menu and the workbench menus. Descriptions of items and their mod properties are now more specific to the numerical changes in stats, making it easier for you to cater your build to your specific playstyle.

Gameplay Settings: We've added the ability to turn Advanced Mod descriptions ON or OFF. By default, this setting is set to OFF.

Item View and Inspection

AP cost, Fire Mode (Single/Automatic/Charging), Ammo Capacity, and Damage Over Time effects are now shown.

We've added new icons to replace the + and – indicators when crafting new items.

Changes when modding are now color coded.

Set Bonuses now have an icon indicator next to the effect description.

Legendary effects now have the Legendary Star icon next to the effect description.

Extra effects not normally shown elsewhere are now displayed below the Legendary Effects.

Dynamic values of some effects have been added to show the current bonus.

Balance

The Bleedout Syringer Barrel now deals physical damage instead of poison.

Burning mods for Energy Weapons now deal fire damage.

We've adjusted the Two Shot Legendary Mod to deal its bonus damage more similarly to energy weapons. This is to keep the damage more in-line with one another.

Additional Design Changes and Improvements

Contextual Ammo: Contextual Ammo has been adjusted to more closely match ammo counts for Daily Ops and Expeditions, better accommodate some weapons which consume a lot of ammo, and provide more ammo for Non-Expeditions/Daily Ops ("open world") in certain level ranges where enemies are proportionally hardier and more difficult to kill.

This fix also increases the rate of Fusion and Plasma Cores that drop in the Open World.

Fanfare: We have moved the Legendary Item fanfare to no longer be in the center of the screen.

PlayStation: We've updated the Default Controller layout for PlayStation users. The Map is now opened with the touch pad and the POV can be changed using the Options button.

Resets: During daylight savings, Vendors now update their inventory at the same time as challenges at 11 am CT. (Note: Outside of Daylight savings, the reset will happen at 12 pm CT.)

Settings: We've added a setting to enable and disable weapon muzzle flash effects.
