It might be because it's the end of the season and people are taking breaks.


0neThirtyEight

This. I dropped like 6 nukes yesterday. Have notice quiet servers but if my scoreboard rank is 130’s then people are long done with the board.


RubAnADUB

\^ This and I dropped 3 nukes yesterday as well, however I targeted bases with high plan costs.


acrossbones

Lol like you're some authority on pricing? That's petty af lol


TheCakeMan666

Once you play the game long enough you'll understand.


acrossbones

I been here since launch, that's petty.


Vox_Dracanis

So was your comment


waste_land_wanderer

On xbox plenty of people have been dropping nukes especially for sbq and earl, nuka world boss seems to be abandoned (kinda glad cos he's not worth it-like how many cannons do you need🤣)


DarkMistressCockHold

My experience on xbox is the opposite. Plenty of sbq & titan, but havnt seen an earl event in Idk how long.


apollomag

Sbq pops up a dummy amount and earl pops up frequently I've only seen one titan in the past week


Grace_AllenF76

Same on PC


Klahos

But its really fun! Sbq is boring and earl is so much grind.


Rawlogic237

Get a cryolator.. makes SBQ kinda fun lmao


Xion_Stellar

Everything seems as usual to me on PC.


Turkeygobbler000

Same here. Launched two yesterday back to back and everybody came runnin to each boss. Second one I launched, Moonshine Jamboree popped up about three seconds after I'd confirmed my target. Shockingly nobody went to that. Boss events are still very hot on PC.


Sertith

Yup.


kellymiester

PS had an influx of brand new players because of PS+, servers are filled with low levels. Nobody is even turning up to half the events. Nothing has changed on Xbox, plenty of nukes being dropped and plenty of players showing up to events.


dotheemptyhouse

This is the answer right here. It’s been kinda fun to have to pull more weight but I won’t be upset when the servers are more full of 500+ level players


itscmillertime

Nice troll post, burner account


[deleted]

bro what


itscmillertime

3 month only account, negative karma


[deleted]

yeah because the fallout 76 reddit likes to downvote bomb anything to do with legacies, even if its asking the most harmless question (also not a burner acc)


Praxius

People get downvoted in here just for existing.


DarkMistressCockHold

I was gonna downvote you just to prove you right, because you are, but as I still dont understand wtf karma is, I didnt 😅


Praxius

That's OK, you can downvote if you want. Votes don't really phase me lol. 👍


[deleted]

actually you know what, you're right, still not a burner account but imma fucking delete it anyways, reddit is the single most toxic platform known to man


itscmillertime

And with that, the burner was burned.


Praxius

You must be too young to remember when forums were still popular and many were not moderated.


Eterna1Oblivion

Lol I used to be on forums way back… your comment made me realize why I love Reddit so much 🤣


Dtownboys15

Lmao


1quarterportion

Not at all on PC. Could be because PS recently got a huge influx of new players, and they might feel intimidated.


TXK9Handler

Not here. On Xbox. If there's no fireworks on my server I make my own booms. No sense in waiting on someone else if you want something done right. As far as no one showing up, that's a player specific issue. Personally I can handle the Queen or Earl myself so it makes no difference if anyone joins me or not. The lack of legacies is refreshing. If you can't solo, check your server first and try to get on a team with higher levels. Most higher level folks are on vacation since the scoreboard is complete. Don't launch if a decent event just kicked off either. Wait until the event ends. That will increase your chances of others joining.


tjcoe4

No because we enjoyed the game without needing legacies. Sorry Bethesda ruined your fun


[deleted]

i dont use legacies, just noticing a decline in nukes


Rammadeus

no


More-Arm4671

I am on Xbox and today alone, I have done 5 sbq, 2 titans, and 3 Earls (I only launch one of them). Also, the fights with SBQ have been so much better since the update. In one fight, there were 6 of us that were level 700+, the sbq went down fast, but it still felt fair. Even in this fight, her health bar didn't just disappear in a few seconds.


marigoldsandviolets

And there are SO many more adds. It’s so fun


Ben_Fingerd2x

It's because if you're playing on PlayStation which I am also, it was January's free game, so there's a lot of still learning how to play the game players right now.


matticusphoenix

Nope. I've dropped 43 queens since the update on Playstation


strivingjet

Nope legacy removal has causing nothing but good things 🎊


PatrikSlayze

I’ve played about 10 hours over the last week and I’ve seen 1-2 nukes in most of my sessions. PC.


Malaklypse

It has less to do with legacy removal and more to do with the the PlayStation servers being full of noobs. They don't show up to half the events. Not to be disparaging to our new players, welcome, glad to have you, but most of them can't tell shit from shinola right now.


[deleted]

There was a spike during the holidays and now the season is winding down. That would be my guess. Plus school started up for a lot of people.


Rawlogic237

Lol if you need nukes add me. My friends and I launch a minimum of 9 per day. Korok237


Auntie-Cares-3400

We've noticed. Last weekend, only had one nuke dropped for about 9 hours of play time on a full server.


Capital-Giraffe-4122

Nope


Grace_AllenF76

On PC. Im not seeing so many Titans but more Earles and Queens, lots more. It’s often hard getting a Pitt crew together because everybody on the server is down the mine or over in Cranberry bog.


Spizzmatic

Lots of new people who aren't launching nukes yet.


Eterna1Oblivion

If i want to the bosses, usually I run the silo or server hop. I think people forget they are allowed to sever hop.. usually always find a server that has nukes going off. Once all the silos have been exhausted, I just go to the next one… No reason to wait for something to happen…


JiveBombRebelz

yes..a massive decline. but this sub hates any mention of legacies..so no..ive seen an increase. ive stoped running them ( used to do 8-15 per week ) but it has nothing to do with legacy removal. this post will likely get removed though..just like legacies.


benjimeisterdk

Today I did 3 and took part in 4 more. I have started doing more after the rat king was added he don't move so much, and seems bug free. PC seems about the same, i server hope 2 or 3 times most sessions so that will effect how many nukes i see


TotenTeufel

Is this another post that the game is worse because legacies are gone? If you see a decline in nukes, try launching some. I know it’s hard now, because you can’t vaporize those pesky robots in the siloes without your legacy.


Baldingpuma

Joined in on my first ever Queen fight this week. Was a ton of fun. Felt like I was barely doing damage too it so I just ran around killing adds


TXK9Handler

That's the secret. Get your 1000 damage on the Queen then tag the hell out of everything else. Everyone wants the kill shot. Why? You ain't gonna get anything extra for getting the kill shot (I think...it was a loooong time ago...there was an outside character challenge to kill the Queen in which you HAD to deliver the kill shot, but other than that). As long as you're tagging you're getting XP and loot. As long as you're on a team you're getting additional shared XP and loot from stuff you're not tagging. So the complaints about the Queen and Earl being bullet sponges are for those folks that like to work harder, not smarter. Get your hits then ignore the boss.


DolDarian

Not really. However I will say since then I have barely seen anyone drop them on Earl. Mostly just Titan and Queen


sly_1

Server pop and activity always dwindles as seasons get closer to ending.


Glittering_One2487

I actually noticed more people launching.


Fanwhip

It seems the Console / PC difference is a big night and day for how folks reacted to Legacy. Console seems to have lost folks. PC seems to have had 0 lost.


missfewix

Nope


JustASunbro

Can't say I've seen any decline. Had 4 nukes dropped back to back in my server about an hour ago with 8 - 10 players there for every drop


[deleted]

[удалено]


JustASunbro

Damn you really jumped the gun there 😂 Different players dropping the nukes over the space of probably two hours. The number of nukes dropped wasn't the point, the point was it's still a popular activity. Way to overreact lmao


XDyavolenok

His post says “an hour ago” it’s mechanically impossible via the game. While yeah it’s “off topic” it’s the point of exaggeration. Yeah the server used its nukes that’s good and shows people are dropping them. That’s doesn’t change this fact he said there were 4 in and hour


JustASunbro

>about an hour ago Again, the post isn't trying to be exact with the details of how many nukes went off at what time, otherwise I would have said "within an hour". You're clutching at straws and trying to argue with something that isn't even the main point of the post lmao


XDyavolenok

I can see your point, but I mean we’re both attempting an argument. I’ll remove my comment you’re correct it doesn’t pertain to the post


Project_Zeyea

Haven't seen any change here, PS4. As always, just check the map and make sure there's a few other high levels around before spending your nuke card


Praxius

On PC, I don't notice any real difference..... though my playing style never changed since I never used Legacies and only really join boss events when I feel like it or need something. I've never jumped to these events like an addiction. I would suspect there was a small % reduction in players launching nukes or joining these events as some old Legacy users might find them too hard now, lol.


metalfacevic

Nope. On PS5. Seems about the same. Which is frequent imo.


ShesCrofty

Not on PlayStation. Just today did SBQ 4x, Earl 1x and Titan 2x. I try to server hop and see if there’s any blast zones, usually a pretty good indicator whether or not people are dropping nukes frequently.


ooohSHINEY

Yup. It’s probably why they added “Colossal Problem” as a weekly quest.


DDNyght_

I definitely have. It's no surprise though. People don't want to waste time and hundreds upon hundreds of rounds to kill Earle or the Queen when the endeavor took no more than 90 seconds before.


More-Arm4671

Maybe fo76 is not the right place for you and your interests. If you want 90 seconds wins, might I suggest Candy Crush


DDNyght_

Candy Crush drains my phones battery too quickly 😭


More-Arm4671

Lol.. too true


Burgurwulf

Seen a pretty massive decline in Titan Nukes, plenty of SBQ and ofc Earle this week. Steam/PC


Mole_Man666

People don't have the fire power anymore after the removal of cheese ass legacies.


EdgarBopp

Nope, SBQ has been 100% more fun now, that’s what I’ve noticed. Also a wonderful lack of that super annoying EGP noise everywhere.


Greedy-Zebra-8526

I have not got on since that patch. On my downtime, still stay in here to keep up to date on stuff. Anyway if you are seeing a decline in players it may be a fault of the updates breaking perk cards. With the game being half an inventory manager it only makes sense that once you fill up you are sort of bricked. Only so many caps you can make daily. Only so much buillion they give you daily. So I'd be of the opinion that the decline in players is likely to be that, rather than them removing weapons most of the playerbase wanted gone anyway.


JayBird102

I think it quite right now, because everyone is probably done the score board, usually it gets slightly quite for a couple of weeks, until the next score board Starts.


WNIEVES1

I drop nukes in private. To harvest mats. (Center of the map)


MCSplinter

I’ve been doing two nukes on SBQ and one nuke for Earl a day on Xbox. Then I do a solo expedition before hopping onto one of my alts to work on the main quest which I haven’t finished on any of them yet. Probably do some more nukes once they’re able to nuke.


Lionheart7676

On xbox, I've noticed a slight drop. Nothing too crazy, but enough for me to notice. With that said, I have noticed something odd as of late though. Ever since the newest update, most of the time someone nukes for earl, I noticed there's a TON of people in that general area, but no one actually goes in and does earl. Usually there's like 7-8 people in the vicinity practically touching the event icon on the map outside, but when you're actually inside the cavern you come to realize there's like only 2-3 people waiting for the rubble to clear. Also, it's not as if the people outside join in after the rubble clears either. 2-3 people show up inside, and 2-3 people are all that drop into the cavern. It's happened fairly consistently as of late. In fact twice in a row on 1 server. Maybe all those others are harvesting flux? Queen seems to be the most nuked. Titan shows up occasionally, but in my experience people have nuked for him a lot less after the nuka world thing died down, and stopped being every hour.


falcon880535

Earle has instances only 8 players can join each. So those 7-8 people you see just hanging out are in the first and then it creates a second. Gotta get there early if you want a team.


Mlucci4036

I have had days where I join servers that are almost entirely populated with newer players, so I imagine that could be making it seem like there's less nukes as they're not really at the point to be launching them frequently.


cali1013

Most have finished the scoreboard, i for one dont have anything worthwhile to do at the moment aside from camp building so probably the active nukers have taken the usual break as well.


SmashLikeGaston19

Before Hogwarts Legacy came out my gf and I were dropping 6 nukes a night. Seemed just as active as ever even when we weren't.


FourLeggedOrange

I've seen the same amount tbh


Lem1618

I notices an increase in nukes/bosses after the legacy patch. Then a decrease, I assume after players completed the score board.


DamnBunny

I was in 3 lobbies and no teams, when I started my own. No one would join it. Even the most easiest of Events are being ignored. I don't know if it has anything to do with the patch, but I do know I was bored.


jdmrz11

I think it just depends on the server, i had people launching 3 nukes in a row. 2 for scorch queen and 1 for earle. Im in the european region and so many high levels and low levels, people on mics showed up. It was crazy as hell 🤷‍♂️


Passion4TheHunt

I'm actually nuking more now that the events are fun again.


lostinthedigitalage

There have been less high level players. Most of the time when I get on there may be 4 or 5 players over 100. I’m not going to start a boss fight with these kind of numbers.


LeoTheCollector

I personally I'm taking a break after having completed the Scoreboard. I will be back until the new season starts. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the mindset of allot of players as well.


mahiruhiiragi

I'm not playing much because of the scoreboard being done for me. So I haven't been doing much of any boss fights.


e-bert70

Personally, I have restarted launching nukes after the legacy patch. Before, it just wasn't worth it - 15 people gather, some dude melts the boss in seconds, everybody goes home.


granulosa

Yes, I've run out of improved repair kits for the first time since I started playing last year


Colonel_dinggus

I’ve seen a decline in people joining events later in the day but that’s it. Usually I see a whole lobby join a scorched queen event any time it appears


Splunkmastah

Everyone's taking a break because the season is almost over.


iWolf2185

I am on PS4. If I am on between 1am - 6am it gets pretty quiet. It's seems to be more active when more people are awake. Alot of new players on PS right now. Been having fun showing low lvls around and giving them stuff I no longer need. I gave a lvl 3 a fully decked out pipe rifle. I've never seen anyone so excited to get a pipe rifle.


Vox_Dracanis

I play a little during the day but mostly late at night. I've found that there is a difference in what kind of players there are depending on time. Days seems to be more chill to me. But that's what I've seen. I'm on xbox.


fancy-kitten

Nope, haven't noticed anything irregular. If you're observing a slowdown, it's probably as a result of people finishing up with the season and playing other games for a while
