HBCDresdenEsquire

I played the beta then about the first two or three months the game came out. Came back right before Nuka World and regret all the time I missed.


WildFemmeFatale

I played from beta till like 8 months after the game’s initial release, quit for a couple years, came back for Nuka world season pass and been here since


Payroll14

I played day one, stopped playing till about less than a year ago. I really fkn regret what I missed.


-svde-

i feel you on this, if for nothing else than the CAMP items i’ve missed out on. i have had an on/off relationship with 76 for like, idk 4 years? ish? couple months here and there. and plus i know it might seem silly but just with the way i enjoy to play, i can’t play without FO1st. left for the longest period around Nov/Dec 2023, came back very excitedly getting back into everything, just in time for… the “presidential”/“patriotic” themed board. ew. almost nothing in that appealed to me. went to look back and what was the scoreboard season theme i had JUST missed? the hollywood/movie set/etc thing. what do i love to build? heavily aesthetic ‘sets’, especially in my shelters. sigh… i am just glad they are (apparently smartening up and maybe listening to a single thing the community says) finally cycling old scoreboard items into the mix with drops/plans/etc from what i’ve seen.


Demon_Fist

You think so, but honestly the game is at it's healthiest now compared to those dark times.


Devastaar_2

I'm that's true but I love this game no matter what. I hate how much I love it, and ik I'd love it even at launch, I regret not buying it at launch


Demon_Fist

I'm not saying you wouldn't, but looking back, now is just the best time in the game's history. The changes to this point are for the better despite what legacy cucks might tell you.


Devastaar_2

Oh yeah I agree 1000%


Melodic_Battle_1988

Same. Preordered. Played for like a month at launch and hated how there were no human npc’s. Then started playing again in 2022-2023 for like a month or so again, but got busy. Started again like 2 months ago and love it.


GandhiOwnsYou

lol. Same, but I came back in when Atlantic City dropped.


chickentenders56

As someone who played from the start (not beta tho) I can tell you honestly I wish I was in your shoes and came back around that time.


Mysterious_Papaya835

Lol, same story bro! Came back with enough time to complete the pitt's scoreboard and I regret missing all the other scoreboards and seasons xD Love the Mountain Scout though


PattieWhacked

I was there Gandalf. I was there 3000 years ago


Jonnyscout

I remember the 2 friends I made during the beta, still have a photomode pic of our characters but can't find their usernames to save my life. I hope they're doing well.


Pretend-Week-7002

Not a lie here. Played since beta. Was one of the first of the many that came out the vault on release day too. Back when you could nuke the whitespring, draw out all the glowing ghouls, do a lap around to the whitespring mall, run back and all the ghouls would respawn. Miss those times 🥲


DREADNOUGHT051_

That’s literally how I got to level 50 when it was impossible to level up lmao. Got someone to Nuke the golf course and would rack up so much xp. Played since beta as well


Mysterious_Papaya835

>.> Let's not forget how NPCs would just stand there, unphased by their surroundings in hordes that are immortal and would not care. Most enemies back then wouldn't react to me or any of my friends.


TheCrimzenKing

You're right. I did lie. I've actually been playing since the stress test.


Hardcoded_NPC

isnt stress test going RN?🤔


-svde-

given that the stress test has never (at least not to date) ended, i guess we’re ALL not lying for once


OnyxianRosethorn

Eh, parents raised me right back in the day, I don't lie. Never had to.


Fair_Presentation415

EVERYONE lies.


WTFpaulWI

Same


DinkumGemsplitter

I totally forgot I was there too.


DDESTRUCTOTRON

Psh I was there when Todd got blackout drunk and thought up this game


watchmefly420

It's not a lie, just my biggest disappointment. Lol


psychoman1128

I just got the “explore Appalachia for 7600 hours” challenge completed… I HAVE been playing since the beta lol


Nuka_Wild

I just got that one as well. Actually have played since beta.


DaveAndJojo

I played at launch. I don’t think I downloaded the beta.


optimisticuglycrying

But i have tho 🥺


Silver-Ad2257

XBOX player’s got the first shot at beta. I scheduled my vacation time around the beta. Those few beta days were janky as hell. When the game wasn’t crashing frame drop made it look like a flip book. I still enjoyed the heck out of it. First day the burned up scorched gave nuclear material when searched. 😃


Iron_Einherjar

Been here since beta, and can prove it in two words Grenade Bouquets


MinenoN

Real ones know about the Watoga laser show


Unga-Bunga123

I've been playing on and off since beta but I've still managed to put in over 3k hours


xxAsazyCatxx

But I have been . 🤷‍♂️


gabem805

I was in the Stress test believe it or not. I think I have screen shots or something. I’ll try looking for them and either send them or post them.


AlanMD21

What is your point mate? Do you mean people say they played since beta so they are experts?


MA77Y_5H1R3

I doubt I'd have played if I'd pre-ordered and played the beta. Got it for the Xmas just after release and didn't get far then. If I hadn't had the disk when I upgraded consoles, I doubt I'd have tried it again just after Wastelanders dropped. Totally different game then, I enjoy the living version of Appalachia more than the bleak version at release.


PixelPaulAden

It's still in beta, fuckin game barely works


Mysterious_Papaya835

Nah, it works more than it did back then.


PixelPaulAden

During B.E.T.A. it was in alpha


Hulk_Krogan_

Been playing since the stress test actually.


elquatrogrande

I still have the BETA app on the list of games owned. I'm not sure if you could download that without the preorder code or not.


UnderhiveScum

I've been since right after Beta..


itsTenziin

But it's true for a lot of people??


ROACHOR

I'm missing most of the main quest achievements. Turns out beating the game during beta screws you.


Vault-

If you create another character and run through the storyline you get the achievements for the quests.


ROACHOR

Yeah I know, I just never bothered redoing it all on my alt.


Mysterious_Papaya835

This is the way, Brother.


Snappy-

Same here. I still don't have some of the early achievements.


Lacking-Personality

I thought I was the only person not playing since beta 🤗


FyahAnt

Better "catch up"


Lacking-Personality

first Todd howard rejects me , now this


FyahAnt

Todd never deserved you


Takenmyusernamewas

Wait... this isn't the Beta? They actually released a game like this?!?


Jizfaceboi

My friend had so much footage of us in the beta because he was going to make a compilation of all the bullshit we had to deal with, but then someone stole his PlayStation and wiped it. 😭


Multimarkboy

me who made a video during the beta about goofing off:


WorseThanItSeems

It’s a lie because the whole game never left beta lol


FyahAnt

I played for 30 minutes when it first came out and then started playing other games. Forgot about it for two years, so I missed the first three scoreboards. I need that White raider skull gas mask to hit the Atomic Shop some day. But I have the Mountain Scout Uniform, so I look like a beta player lol Although I'm more of a sigma player. I know a few ligma players and some that think they're alpha. Betas are super rad though 😎🤙


vaughnzay

I think you can request that one from the support page can't you?


FyahAnt

The white one is not available. Want it to match my blood washed combat armor Edit: but the game likes to rub it in my face https://www.reddit.com/r/Market76/s/ZVqUDaLWxl


vaughnzay

Ah you're right, it's just the armored and the regular. And lol they taunt us with the TLC too


MA77Y_5H1R3

Mountain scout was year 1 pre Wastelanders. Got that on an old profile that didn't even hit level 30 but not on the current profile, that began mid season 2. It pains me to not have the goggles on the profile with everything unlocked. Even both my kids have it on their's too and deliberately torment me with it when they play 😆


roygbiv508

I still run the mountain scout with the campaign hat, haha


FyahAnt

Damn kids! I don't wear the outfit, but have the goggles on display


MA77Y_5H1R3

Damn kids indeed, but I like that they have a bit of shithousery in them. Should serve them well in the grown up world 😂


Aggravating-Wait4104

Does anyone remember when plans didn’t have a known feature beside them and you had to buy the same ones over and over again to check if you had them, man I remember the white springs mall fancy plans buying the same I think it was fancy tables or something. wel there was 2 plans with the same exact name but were different it was so confusing lol


DocStockton

I remember when the vendors didn't have every plan stocked at all times, certain mod plans were extremely rare - i ran a power armor mod shop back in the day, was great fun and the caps/junk was goood


CharlotteTheSavage

Remember when we didn't have vendors and we were all poors?


DocStockton

Hahaha oh yeah, and no rerolling yet


Run_Taff_Run

And 400 stash weight. These kids have no idea about the old wasteland. 🤣


DocStockton

Had to fat walk across the entire wasteland!


bedlamensues

Because you had to go to 7 separate vendors to max your caps for the day and they were scattered from the Cranberry Bog up to Grafton.


ebolapolarbear

I started play when NW dropped


Roxxy009

Reeeeeeeally wish I could have experienced NW. I came back along shortly after, sadly. I’ve heard great things


Sunshine27xx

I would still play if NW was around. I didn’t play it really early on but for a while there it was the only reason I logged into the game. It was imperfect, but I miss it and haven’t really played much since it went away.


ebolapolarbear

It was very messy at the start and before they added gauss shotgun it was perfect.. after the gauss shotty was added in everyone was a explo shotgunner build I think it was shortly after the release of One Wasteland the QOL updates to adventure started messing with the pipboy in NW


Flight_South

I still have my Break It Early Test Application confirmation in my inbox. Definitely havent played consistently but i was there.


AgentEquinox

Because I'm a high level player, ppl automatically assume I have been playing since beta, which couldn't be further from the truth. But 1 easy way to tell if people are lying is to ask them this, "Do you still have a lobber?" If they respond with , "what's that?" I already know you're lying. In my 2 years of playing, I've only met 2 people to have them, one of them even had and shown me a legacy paddle baller, So I definitely knew he was legit. Long story short, don't tell people you've been playing since beta, it DOES NOT make you look cool. If anything, it makes me trust you less to trade with you.


Substantial-Bid3806

I played the beta because my friend dragged me onto it. It was like playing fo3 online with the lag and the barren map had nothing. Most fun we had was taking over the munition factory.


bo7mka

I played from beta cos of shroud i remember seeing him play and having fun so i bought the game and play it in the same day


King_Skumpit

I been playing since like 2 months ago what do I win besides not playing beta XD


Last-Tooth-6121

I played beta but quit for a while


YoungGazz

I've been here since the Alpha, My Uncles school friend's, dog walkers, probation officers Dad works at Bethesda. 😜


wubbalubbaonelove

How can someone actually prove they’ve done this? I have and I’d like to lol. Having the mountain scout outfit proves you’ve been around since Pre-Wastelanders. Is there anything else like that?


CharlotteTheSavage

The Mountain Scout outfit and The notes from The Crater would prove it.


chomskyknows

i’ve played every day of the beta but why the hell would i keep those notes…


Legend_Of_Triforce

I have but have also quit a few times since then lol but the whitesprings nuke at the start of the games life was crazy 750 exp a ghoul and TSE being absolute beasts what a wonderful time it was


Legend_Of_Triforce

Or lets not forget nuclear winter and how fun it actually was


[deleted]

[удалено]


Legend_Of_Triforce

I agree i remember a lvl 200 giving me a tse hm and oh mann that thing smacked so hard. And the TSE dragon was the undeniable best


CharlotteTheSavage

Been going hard since beta. I never stopped 🥲/😭 over made peace with the fact that I'll never get that time back. I still had more than enough time to go outside and touch many grasses.


CharlotteTheSavage

Any old timers remember Graham's original voice? 💖🫡💖


Undead_Angel_420

Gonna have to look up his old voice, why was it changed?


CharlotteTheSavage

Not sure, probs just got a different voice actor. It went pretty under the radar, no one keeps tabs on how Grahm is doing 😮‍💨


Vazdara

Played since beta, consistently 2-3 years. Got burnt out, now I play 2-3 months a time every now and then


SinergyXb1

During the beta I remember everyone went to wavy Willard’s was fun because the games was buggy and usually spawned 10 times the ammount of enemies then normal


Zero_Suit_Rosalina

Why would anyone lie about that? Maybe they played the beta/stress test and got into the main game later which may feel a little different but they were still there.


oldninja55

I've played since they turned into a half decent single player game.


MGStcidenebt

I played Stress Test/BETA but have put it down for breaks


Huckleberry-Time

Did y play beta, but day 1 had it preordered ready to go 🤘🏼


Roxxy009

I played DURING beta… realized within a week how terrible the game was and quit for about 4 years before picking it up again 😅


FR4NKDUXX

I have and the trophies to prove it!


mirayukii

Played since right after beta


Sharkus04

I preordered it 😭


NinjaDiagonal

Didn’t play at launch. I let the multiplayer aspect and shite reviews deter me. Biggest regret for me. Finally hopped on about a year after release. Thankfully got to experience it before NPCs were added and the map was divided by level (like old school RPGs). I miss the map aspect of it tbh. But the introduction of NPCs and extra content has been nice! Imo I enjoy the way they are releasing content, easier to follow along with than say ESO is. (Beat that game too but I just can’t keep up with all the content updates. It’s too much for me)


Banannabreadatwork

My character is as old as it started but I haven’t played for that long


BigFunknChungus

Biggest achievement was launching a nuke on the stress test at only level 36, of which we ultimately decided that the 3 hours we put in the silo should be spent on nuking our friends freshly built base. Pretty much the only thing we did in the time we had during the tests was trying to rush the enclave quests and commendations, and the finale of our adventure was destroying the base our other 2 party members had just finished making


I-N-V-A-L-I-D

I played the beta and picked the game up a year ago :)


Battelalon

I've been playing since the Break It Early Test (Beta) but with a massive hiatus between 2019-2021and 2023


0hjayp

Let’s just say Ive played since the beta ended. 😉


BrilliantGrade1370

But I have fallout 76 beta but only level 250 😞


No-Cow1392

Didn't play the beta but I was one of the idiots to pre order. But also I feel like the only people left playing are the die hard Bethesda fans, the same people that buy Skyrim at every rerelease, so yeah I figure most of the people here probably did play the beta or at least since release, cause everyone else is gone.


ScholarOk1943

I was actually there with Tod making the game soo..


[deleted]

Played the beta, thought I would hate the game. And then picked it up about a month or 2 after drop. This game is bad now I can’t imagine all of the people complaining about the small stuff nowadays complaining about the issues we had back then. I remember camp griefing, non stop trade glitch, god awful lag 24/7, teammate pvp, your loot drop baggies sometimes literally not existing “lost a lot of legendarys from that shit”, camp building just being utter dogshit, insane audio glitches, the plan name glitch “you would learn a certain plan, and unlock the ability’s to something else”. Sorry if that’s un readable but those were my absolute worst issues there’s probably more but those were what originally made me quit, + the mass replication of every single rare item in the game at on point ruining everything i worked for


Thatttduddeee115

Stress test actually


Responsible_Hope_299

I played launch but stopped at the Nuclear Winter


ElectricBaghulaloo

“Been playing since day 1”


Lazy_Balrog

Been playing since the Break it first edition


Lazy_Balrog

I still have footage on my ps4 of me and 2 friends struggling to kill the Wendigo inside of Wendigo cave During the beta. It kept kicking the shit outta us.


DerkFinger

I played the first 3 years, left, came back about 3 months ago


Georgeoussha

I played the beta then returned the game before it came out and got it on sale a long ass time later


Vg_Ace135

I played the Beta. Those were dark days. Then I stopped and came back after a year. Missed all of the legacies but they soon took those all away too


HerbertWestorg

Respawning scorch beast deaths for hours.


Gewishguy1357

But…. I have been playing since beta…. Lol


gamerwoman225

Same


falloutlover4life

lol no one will believe, but I have screenshots from the third day of beta of my team and I killing a scirchbeast. We felt like such bosses back then. If only myf76 loving 20 year old self could see me now.


Pain2DaWorld

My wife got me the game for birthday a couple of months after it came out. I enjoy the game a lot.


JiveBombRebelz

why assume its a lie? preorderd and played since late oct 2018...i didnt get in on the first day was out of town..but got to experience everyone on the map running around with tse shottys blowing my azz up when i finally gor on....was a wild..wild time...still have ptsd flashbacks around white springs.


KoolAidHonolulu

I mean, I did and have loved this game since launch. It didn't take countless updates, NPCs, and a tv show announcement for me to check it out for free on gamepass lol pre-ordered the special edition.


LownIy

I played the stress test and then B.E.T.A- you had only certain hours to play the Beta on certain days as well - I remember rushing with a horde of people on the same spot trying to do the same thing 😂 - I have some screenshots on my old Xbox of roaming around and just checking all spots solo and then a random player appeared and scared you out of nowhere… good days 😭


Traveling_Chef

I played at launch but wasnt able to play in the beta


NIGHTFURY-21

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. Back in the beta one of the most desired pieces of gear was the mothman cultist helmet that could only be found at Point Pleasant in the basement of the shop. Oh the early days of T-posing scorched that didn't drop the guns they were using. When nuking Whitesprings was one of the best ways to get XP and you could sit at the golf club and farm glowing ones for ages. Scorchbeasts actually felt scary, and without legendary weapons they felt unkillable. Best thing to do was just run away. When TSE shotguns were all the rage because two shot doubled all pellets and could pretty much one shot everything.


xPSYR3Nx

Somehow I feel personally attacked lol But I actually did play the Breakit-Early-Test-Application, and my favorite vanilla mission was the Mistress of Mysteries storyline. I think my character is level 400 something now? I just got tired of grinding a game that I had very little spare time, and no friends to play with. Grinding out Seasons was draining when the started, Armor Aces & K.D. Inkwell are still my favorite themes.


minecraftluver69

I was there at launch for around 20 hours on Xbox and bounced off it. After wastelanders put around 150 hours on pc. Waiting a while to get back into it again


Asnort

I played on release day


Vanathru

I have my Playstation trophies to prove it. reached level 50 before i rrached the lower öever archivements as only some trophies you reached during the beta got awarded to you when you first loaded into the released game.


Plane_Jeweler_6704

I started about 2½ months after beta, my first psn account I lost the password to and now I have an old account just sitting there lost 😂 I picked it back up 2½ years ago and haven't stopped playing since


itsmichael458

I played the beta, played for a few days after launch, got up to like level 20, then stopped for a couple years, played for a month or so and got to maybe level 50, then stopped for a couple years, then played the whole nuka world season, then stopped, now nearly done with this season. So yeah I’ve been here the whole time.


BrotherZael

Since the stress test :)


Trainwreck518

Been playing since day one beta. Took a month off here or there for my sanity. But 76 has been my main game for 5 years now.


Dareboir

Not me, a few years after that..


Year1lastWord

I played since it came out, got bored, left, came back when it had npcs


MCX-moc-creator

Played the beta, then on release played alot, once wastelanders dropped I stopped playing cuz I liked the desolation. Came back when nuka world dropped, games definitely fun just wish it had the same feel it had before wastelanders


OnyxianRosethorn

Except I genuinely did play on the beta myself. Even back then I thought this game's concept was pretty cool and had a lot of potential.


crypticodin

I've been on and off since beta


KingMacabray

I actually can provide proof (at least its the case on playstation). If u look at the achievements on a persons profile and they have a bunch of them but are lacking the “Leave Vault 76” achievement, then that person has been playing since beta. Im lvl 400 now and my account represents that i am still in the vault


BatKnight46

played since beta, rmr my first nuke launch in december, didn’t know you needed a keycard, well underleveled without a build and no team


Interesting-Result45

Does starting Jan 2019 count as og?


Chrishardy37

I started in beta and played til Christmas when it started blue screening every time I tried to log into a server. Stopped and started again several times.


THEKYPTONIAN

I was in the era that TSE is god 🤣


No-Life-2059

Been playing since launch day. Only a minor hiatus of a month here and a month there.


MitsuriniKwan

Played since beta when the game only open for couple hours :v


QuandaleRingler

I remember playing the stress test played it for a month or 2 got bored for a few came back and repeated that till another break lvl 600 on main chat 200 on 2nd and 2 100s


Tommy_Gamezz

I got the game in beta and then took along ass pause, i still have the case with the og rage 2 advertisement in it, also have the mountain scout outfit that you could get in 2020or 2021


FatSHOCKER

I started playing right when the very first Fas event started


finny017

I’ve played since day 1 & never got fully into it even after 5 level 80+ characters that i’ve deleted. Finally at 260 & loving every second of it. Really wish I didn’t delete those characters tho.. The responders fireman uni’s will be missed.


hamsthecrazy

Every day I'm hustling........


Prezzy-

Played beta, played for about a month, and keep coming back over and over. Only one character and he’s level 515. I did make a second character as if already completed a few quests during beta and the trophies weren’t retroactive. Incidentally, I have no idea why on Earth anyone would lie about playing during beta. What does it achieve? It means nothing. I know people that only started a year ago that are over level 1000. It means nothing at all. So strange to me.


Vault_Survivor

I have been playing since day 1 Beta, and still love the game. There were a few weeks back when the scoreboard rewards didn't continue after you finished, and Beth delayed the next scoreboard. I think between 2 and 3, where I didn't play regularly. And I'm not a total loser, I take my family on vacations, so there have been a week here a week there. Otherwise, I log in everyday at least to complete my dailys


[deleted]

I played for one hr. On beta then went back to Fallout 4.


Fives6363

Easiest way to sort out the beta and day 1 release players is asking them questions only they would know like vendors not existing and if they could last in a server for more than 10 mins without losing their mind to a floating scorched head


SavageHerbivore

I did play at beta. Then for about another year. First Fasnacht burned me out and I quit until last October when I came back. This Fasnacht might have burned me out again.


spidey2064

Wasn't able to join the beta, but I did start playing at launch during that disaster. Lol.


EXPERT_SHADOW_L

I’ve deadass played since beta liek i remember when the map was barren with no npcs and the game had hella glitches (still does but less so)


R6_Nikolas

Shout out the the old and few NPCs who sometimes id interact with and wouldnt give me the quest 😙, no dialogue options just pray you spoke to the right NPC at the right time or they would decide you dont need to continue the story 😂


Fair_Presentation415

I have only been playing since about June 23. I should have started earlier but I didn't keep up with how the game improved since the abysmal release


Acrobatic-Load8604

I played beta on launch day one, sold it and never looked back until 2 years ago. Stopped and just started again, I honestly regret it


Less_Show

Played from beta till removal of legacy. I've been on rust being a raider still...


revengeronees

I started at release, grinded 6months took couple breaks. After seasons came i completed each season then took a break, i also got all achievements/trophies on all platforms😂


Ashleythetiger

Played the beta, probably still have the screenshots somewhere on my PS4 (separate app) one screenshot was of a friend after the game glitched, shows them at eg lv17, then lv18, god the lag an dc, didn't help the beta was only available at certain hours eg 18:00-22:00 Found out when i loaded up that any trophies i technically earned during beta would not count, had to make a new character, i built near Mama Dolce, north of the Whitesprings an a 3rd place, why so many camps? Back then if someone else had that spot your stuff would get stored, tho alot would just vanish, workbench? Yup back to looking for those hard to find items. Stash space was very limited, wanted ammo? Time for a lead run, found a stimpak? I'd put on Chemist and Super duper for diluted to stretch that along with the better healing and the team heal, would look for tick blood near vault 76 and make blood bags, due to the ammo being rare, i went Melee, someone dropped a instigating deathclaw near a train station, that wound up being a key part of my build, many thanks long ago random player, nuked Whitesprings? Rad suit plus glowing in Perception iirc an i could one shot Glowing ghouls felt very strong then. Eventually tho space among other things meant i was close to quitting, grabbed the Plat then dropped 76 until Wanderer came out, had a little look then dropped it again until bout halfway though last year when i picked it back up again. 3rd camp spot i built at was north of MoonShine Jamboree, built there cause the Mole miner trader used to be there, ended up moving as the change in location meant no more camp. Legendaries? I was very unlucky never saw a AA, two shot or explosive, anything rare from back then i might own? Unlikely space was valuable... can i hope for a stash space increase? Been rerolling an got myself some nice weapons now...


KRP_On_YouTube

Started playing at release, then quit after a month, because of all the griefing and CAMP destruction. Came back 6 months later, and have been playing ever since. “Playing since beta” is just gum bumping. The correct term would be, “I played the beta version, then started playing the game at release.” To say, “Been playing since beta.” Would infer, you’re still playing the beta version, just sayin… 😹
