Fallout 76 Atoms Prices for In-Game Microtransactions Revealed by GameStop

GameStop has revealed the real world pricing for Fallout 76 Atoms, the in-game currency that will be used to unlock cosmetic items.

[Jackhass]

Well, not as bad as it could be, but still annoying to see this kind of stuff in Fallout.

[ccgr]

agreed, I'll just stick with the base game and any worthwhile expansions

[-T9X-69-]

There won't in the traditional sense. All DLC is free and the game runs on dedicated servers. Instead they sell skins to keep the servers running and DLC free. Only thing you can buy is skins and the atoms can be earned in game.

[senorfartcushion]

It's a full priced game, it is as bad.

[Jinger]

As long as the micro's aren't Pay to Win and it's easy enough to unlock them naturally then I don't really care.

[Alexious]

Agreed. I think Bethesda has done well in this regard for the game. Now they just need to improve bugs and prevent hacks...

[UCForce]

Yeah, but you know that just excuses from them. Of course, this Microtranaction aim for younger generations and they will force these people to use their real money to access these items quickly.

[Jinger]

Not my problem

[Atanasrikard]

It's already been stated that you can earn the currency IN GAME. Who cares if someone wants to own a skin the first day? I don't get you people. It's like you think after you pay money for the game they worked on, you should get everything after that for free.

[UCForce]

Your problem is that you will get screwed by them who get items first by using real money. Because sooner or later, publishers will put microtranaction in our thoart. You remember how dangerous MT was in Metal Gear Survive. It’s like you boiling the frog slowly until it’s died.

[Jinger]

Well first off, these aren't pay to win micro's, and second I didn't play Metal Gear Survive.

[Steveoreno1]

^ the problem

[Jinger]

I have never bought a single MT or Loot Box in my life. How am I the problem?

[Srhalo]

And now you know the real reason Fallout 76 exists.

[Alexious]

If people want to buy skins with their real money, let them. No harm done at all.

[-Foxtrot]

“No harm done”

Then it’ll be

“It’s optional”

🙄

[FullmetalRoyale]

Wow.... really?

*stuggles to remain sane*

[Alexious]

@Foxtrot

I really don't understand what some people have against the ability to buy skins. Literally every game nowadays has them. Fallout 76 doesn't even have loot boxes, which are lame. It's just the ability to get cool skins, whether with real money or simply by playing the game. What's so terrible about that?

No Pay to Win at all.

[ninerguy1608]

Look. Babies downvoting you because they don’t like how you spend your money lol. Same people that wants the government to give them everything for free. Lol. But but where’s my free stuff. Sad

[UCForce]

@Foxtrot Agree. This is just excuses from Bethesda.

@Alexious So you prefer industry to kill us slowly until these publishers will put down on our throats.

@ninerguy1608 it’s no different from these publishers. You should reconsider your thought.

[Rachel_Alucard]

@alexious

Every game does them because people like you kept buying them and excusing them. You also state that it's a plus the game doesn't have lootboxes, having less cancer in the game doesn't justify the rest of it from existing. Can't wait for Starfield being another open world multiplayer MT ridden run of the mill shallow RPG like Beth has been running for at least 15 years.

[isa_scout]

You realize that just over a decade ago these paid skins would've been free unlocks and the only thing you paid extra for was proper DLC right? Man, I shudder to think how they'll treat the new Elder Scrolls. Bethesda is always getting away with stuff like bugs,hacks, and their awful game engine, enough is enough.

[neutralgamer1992]

And it's ironic because last year they were making fun of EA and Activision

[thatguyhayat]

E.A took it too far with battlefront 2. Activision always gets away with it, its gets annoying they dont get the same treatment

[UCForce]

@thatguyhayat That’s the problem with Bethesda. They are becoming EA baby.

[Brave_Losers_Unite]

Bethesda tried adding paid mods to Skyrim and received backlash so they stopped the project. This is their work around

[UCForce]

They still doing it.

[Srhalo]

Uh, they did add paid mods to both Skyrim and Fallout 4. And my money is on paid only mods in Fallout 76 and streaming only on the next elder scrolls with only paid mods.

[KaiPow]

At least the icons are cheap!

[Hardiman]

And this folks is the reason this game exists!

[Vizigoth04]

In game shop bot by developer.

[william_cade]

Destiny: Fallout mode

[Alexious]

Talk about being clueless. This has nothing to do with Destiny at all.

[Dragonscale]

Its an online mmo shooter with mt's like Destiny is an online mmo shooter with mt's hence the joke.

[Srhalo]

Is Bethesda giving you a cut or something?

Fallout 76 is a game people didn’t want filled with mt’s no one wants, quit defending it.

[--bienio--]

I really hope it’s going to be massive flop and disappointed game!!

[Atanasrikard]

That is truly pathetic.

[GameStallion]

I hope this fails

[Sgt_Slaughter]

Any form of Microtransactions in a game that you pay for, is 100% bad, regardless of the optional part.

Also good luck to the PC players, it's going to be a god dang mess with how easily it can be modded.

[Cmv38]

How much does the fun cost.?

[XxINFERNUSxX]

Oh well if this had a single player portion off line, torrent away :D Same as I did with the previous Fallouts. Keep pushing this crap and more rip off DLC, I shall torrent until the day I die :D

[FullmetalRoyale]

Good luck with that...

[TheColbertinator]

So that explains it.

[warriorcase]

O wounder what they will add to the store though as far as customization goes. I earned 400 Atoms during the beta and checked the store but for the life of me couldn't find anything that I would even want for free.

[LiamKreptic]

Cool...shit microtransactions for a shit game...fuck you Bethesda and Pete

[FBNS]

That's fine and dandy and all... But maybe have an actual game first... Maybe... Just saying

[Tross]

My interest in this game keeps hitting new lows.
