Fallout 76 New Update 1.96

Bethesda has pushed out a hotfix for Fallout 76 today that’s live on all platforms as part of the maintenance on the game’s servers. Those on consoles can see Fallout 76 update 1.96 available now, and it’s a smaller patch download than what we’re used to.

This title update activates Caravans, loot issues and more. Read on for the official patch notes straight from the studio.

Fallout 76 New Update 1.96 Patch Notes for Sept. 17:

Today we deployed a updated on all platforms to activate Caravans!

The new quest “A Bump in the Road” will start your career as a caravan leader as you make your mark on Skyline Valley.

You’ll find the patch notes for today’s update below:

  • Various stability and performance improvements
  • Fixed an issue causing the Red and White Rose Bushes and Meat Locker to appear invisible when placed
  • Fixed an issue that caused downed enemies to despawn without leaving their loot piles
  • A prompt will now appear when attempting to scrap any item that has a skin, is a seasonal item, or is from the Atomic Shop

Note that the patch notes for today do not mention the Pip Boy bug has been fixed, and this is something that was noted as a known issue back in the Milepost Zero patch released earlier this month.

Known Issues

  • The team is aware and are continuing to investigate reports of lag when using the Pip-Boy. We thank you for your patience. If you are experiencing this issue, please contact our Customer Support team so we can collect more information.

This means that the compass bug, Powerhouse quest issue and other stuff haven’t been fixed it seems. Let’s hope another patch is released by Bethesda next week that addresses these issues.
