Features[]

Development[]

FO76 Milepost Zero tease

Milepost Zero was first teased on June 12, 2024, following the release of the preceding Skyline Valley update. In the Bethesda Game Studios Discord, lead designer Carl McKevitt linked a video by content creator T0nik and said that an embargo had been lifted on "some FUTURE updates for the fall."[3][5]

The update will feature an "outpost" mechanic, centering on being able to upgrade and redecorate the location of Milepost Zero, which is populated by vendors. A new quest line featuring this southern branch of the Blue Ridge Caravan Company will be added, alongside a new caravan-centered event type entitled "Caravan: Skyline Drive."

Originally, the update was going to include a reworked version of the event Mischief Night, which was discontinued in 2019. The event was moved from the Whitespring to Rapidan Camp. A new slate of rewards was also introduced for "Mischief Night 2." However, it was later confirmed in August 2024 on the Public Test Server patch notes that the Mischief Night rework, initially intended for release with Milepost Zero, would be delayed for a future release instead, pending more polish and bug fixing.[6]

The Public Test Server for Milepost Zero launched on July 5, 2024, implementing changes to legendary crafting. These changes initially used legendary particles, which were discontinued in a later PTS update, citing negative feedback towards another "currency," and were replaced in their functionality by the already-existing legendary scrip. The rest of the changes to legendary crafting remained in place, now with scrip used instead. Changes to the combat balance, a new "Best Builds" system for giving "likes" to CAMPs, and two new Daily Ops locations were also added, as well as the new Mischief Night, though the latter was temporarily disabled on the same day due to reports of crashing. The Blue Ridge caravan content was added to the PTS later that July.[7]

On August 28, 2024, it was announced that the caravan systems included in Milepost Zero would be delayed until later in September. However, season 18 and other features of the update (such as Best Builds and the legendary crafting changes) still launched on September 3.[4] The caravan functionality was released on September 17, alongside a hotfix with other bug fixes.[8]
