The membership offers additional perks like exclusive items, monthly rewards, and 1,650 in-game atoms.

In this segment, more than four years after Fallout 76’s release, the game’s evolution is highlighted with 14 major updates and new game modes. A major topic of discussion is the paid subscription service, Fallout First, which has seen numerous changes and offers various benefits in 2023. The service provides quality of life upgrades, private worlds, custom worlds, exclusive items, and more. Membership costs can be paid monthly or yearly, with savings on the annual plan. Key features of Fallout First include the survival tent, which serves as a fast travel point equipped with a stash box, scrapbox, cooking station, and more. The survival tent is useful for accessing items on the go and comes in various forms, some offering additional crafting benches. The Scrap Box, another feature, offers unlimited storage for scrap and crafting components, aiding inventory management.

In this part of the video, it is explained that a scrap kit sends materials to the Scrap Box instead of the stash box, and an unlimited storage option for most ammo types (excluding Fusion and Plasma cores) is available through the ammo box introduced with Nuka World on Tour. If a Fallout First membership expires, players can still retrieve items but cannot add new ones. The video suggests a strategy of subscribing for a month to stockpile materials and ammo, and notes that exclusive items collected during the membership, such as Ranger armor and cosmetic items, remain accessible even after the subscription ends. Additionally, Fallout First members receive ongoing rewards, including monthly items from the atomic shop, which could be outfits, armor, and camp items. Past rewards can be obtained through special catch-up bundles at a cost in atoms, the in-game currency. Each month, members receive 1,650 atoms and various exclusive scoreboard prizes, highlighting the improved long-term value of a Fallout First subscription.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the benefits that come with the Fallout First subscription, focusing heavily on private and custom worlds. Fallout First offers private worlds that allow up to eight players to experience the same gameplay as in Adventure Mode, with improved download times and server stability. These private servers provide a convenient environment for farming enemies, finding rare items, participating in time-limited events, and building Camps without competition.
Custom worlds are an extension of private worlds, offering subscribers complete control to personalize their Fallout 76 experience by adjusting settings like weather, building restrictions, and enemy spawns. However, progression in custom worlds does not carry over to Adventure Mode, making them less popular with some players. Despite this, custom worlds are ideal for creating large builds, filming videos, and completing certain challenges. The segment concludes by emphasizing that the Fallout First membership is particularly beneficial for committed players and Camp Builders.

In this segment, the speaker discusses whether Fallout First is worth it for players, especially those already comfortable spending money in the Atomic Shop and eager for monthly rewards. New players might not need it immediately but could consider a single month to explore benefits like Cosmetics and emotes. The segment touches on the controversy around Fallout First, labeling some aspects as pay-to-win and contrasting it with early feedback on stashbox limits. The speaker argues that despite these issues, the membership offers good value for its price. They ask viewers for their thoughts on Fallout First in 2023 and encourage engagement and subscription.
