We mentioned this in another thread, but there is an error in some of the Seasons information we provided, which we plan to correct.

Right now, there are Challenges to complete Events and Public Events that grant S.C.O.R.E. At this time, however, Public Events themselves do not currently grant S.C.O.R.E., though this is something we're talking about as a potential addition as we look to bring further improvements to Seasons in the future.

We apologize for the confusion about this, and we will make sure that information is corrected.

Thank you to everyone for all of the Ammo Converter feedback over the past few days. We are already actively looking into potential improvements we can bring to the Ammo Converter to make that experience smoother. We don't have details on those changes at this time since they are still being discussed, but as soon as our plans are more concrete we will share those changes with all of you.

Hi everyone,

We’d like to share an update with you on the status of Fasnacht Parade, and what we’re doing to get the event back up and running.

Shortly af...

Hi everyone, thank you for your reports. Unfortunately, we needed to disable Fasnacht Parade while we investigate a fix for this issue. We will reschedule it for a later date, and you can check this thread in our forums for updated information as soon as we have it. We plan to bring Fasnacht back as soon as possible once the fix is ready and we apologize for the delay.

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, due to the issue being reported here that is preventing critter spawns during certain objectives, we are going to disable Fasnacht Parade until we can implement a fix. We will reschedule the event once we have the fix ready to go. Keep an eye on this thread in our forums for updates as soon as we have new information to share.

Apologies for the delay, and thank you for your patience. We will let you know when we have new dates for Fasnacht.

We're still actively working on the Vending Machine and Display Case issue, so they will remain disabled after maintenance today. We want to release that fix as soon as we possibly can, and we will hotfix once it is ready to go.

We’re releasing Update 19 for Fallout 76 today, which introduces Ally Customization, includes new and returning events, updates for automatic item naming, backpack skin improvements, and new limited-time Nuclear Winter Challenges and cosmetic rewards. We’ve also addressed a wide variety of bugs, including many issues reported by the community.

Update 19 Highlights

• Ally Customization: Give your Allies stylish new looks by sharing your wardrobe with them using the new option to customize their outfits.
• Hunt for the Treasure Hunter: Mole Miners have discovered treasure in the Ash Heap! Starting May 21, hunt them down to claim their loot for yourself during a new limited-time event.
• Fasnacht Parade: By popular demand, this Seasonal Event is returning for a full week starting May 25, and there are plenty of new Fasnacht Masks up for grabs.
• Item Naming Updates:...

Update 2: That's a wrap! Thank you so much for all of your questions and comments. We had a great time and grateful for all the thoughtful messages. We would love to come back in the future to do this again. Until then, thanks again and see you in Wastelanders!

Hello again, r/fo76!

Today we’re trying something new and holding an Ask Us Anything on Wastelanders with Project Lead, Jeff Gardiner (u/jrg993) and Lead Designer, ...

Thank you for your concerns about these issues, everyone. We share them too, and we are actively investigating everything outlined in this thread, as well as other reports we’ve received here, on our own forums, or through support tickets. We have commented in a few previous threads about some of these issues. However, even though we can’t respond to everything, each report, video, and screenshot of an issue that you share with us helps us narrow in on fixes.

In our next hotfix, we are planning to include a fix for the issue where NPCs can occasionally take a player’s weapon when they die. The remaining issues mentioned in this thread are all still active investigations, and we want to resolve them as soon as possible. If they can be addressed in time for our next hotfix, we will definitely include them.

We don’t have an exact timing to share on that hotfix just yet, but we will let you know as soon as we do.

Hello again r/fo76,

We wanted to take a moment to recognize all the incredible members of this sub. The time and passion you've invested into Fallout 76 has really kept us and the game going.

We poured a lot into Wastelanders, not just the content, but all the little things we hope make your core experience better, from interface issues to optimizations and lighting. Seeing all your positive posts and comments has made all that time worth it.

Thanks again for sticking with us and the game. We can’t express our gratitude enough.

More to come!

We're definitely planning to bring Fasnacht back again this year!

We've seen how much excitement there is in the community for the Fasnacht Seasonal Event to make a comeback. While this event was lots of fun the last time it was available, there were also several things we wanted to improve before it returns. The shift of Wastelanders release into 2020 also meant that we had to move these changes around. As a result, Fasnacht is going to be available later than it was last year, but it should be a more enjoyable experience when it returns. We can't wait to parade around Helvetia with you all again this year, and we will have more details to share with you on the date soon.

Yes, what /u/Iron_thumbs posted is correct. If it looks like your character was rolled back after joining a world, log out to the character screen and then select the character without a number at the end of its name. Further details should be coming to players soon via email.
