Survival (Fallout 76)

 

Main menu with the Survival mode selected.

Survival is a Player vs. Player (PvP) mode for Fallout 76, added on March 26, 2019 as a part of the Wild Appalachia series of content.

Features

• Separate worlds for Survival and Adventure mode players. Characters are shared between modes and there are no restrictions.
• +20% bonus on all experience earned while playing in Survival.
• Unlimited PvP combat: No warning or opt-out. Players are not shown on the world map, except for the top three players on the Longest Life scoreboard. Stimpak healing effects cannot be stacked (i.e. only one stimpak may be active).
• Respawn and fast travel limited to C.A.M.P., train stations, owned workshops, or Vault 76 after being killed by a player. Players have a temporary invulnerability placed on them after respawning/fast-travelling to limit the incentive to camp these sites. Invulnerability is removed instantly if the invulnerable player discharges their weapon.
• Players can place bounties on other players' heads after being killed by them.
• Double caps for PvP kills, players can also drop random amounts of Aid items on top of Junk.
• Leaderboards show the longest surviving players, as well as the number of kills made, experience gained, events completed, enemies killed, bounties collected (and time spent wanted), and workshops claimed. Stats reset every week.
