  • Released on November 14th, “Fallout 76” is the latest
    game in the series of post-apocalyptic first-person
    shooters.
  • The world of “Fallout” has been devastated by nuclear
    war, and players can acquire their own nuclear weapons at the
    end of the game with similarly disastrous effects.
  • Nukes are supposed to be hard to get, requiring players to
    find randomly generated nuclear codes and decipher them
    individually. But a small group of players has already found a
    way to streamline the process.
  • YouTuber Nickaroo93 and his friends
    were able to set off three nukes in the game at the same
    moment, causing their entire server to crash.

The “Fallout” franchise has always let players wreak havoc in the
game’s dystopian world, but with the newest title, “Fallout 76,”
which incorporates online multiplayer, the possibilities for
chaos have been multiplied many times over.

Though “Fallout 76” is less than a week old, a group of dedicated
players have already found a way to crash their game server by
detonating multiple nuclear devices at once.

“Fallout 76” takes place in the aftermath of a nuclear apocalypse
and nuclear devices are some of the last available weapons that
players can find at the end of the game. Triggering a nuclear
explosion has a devastating effect on the game world, clearing
out entire towns and spawning powerful mutant enemies that attack
players in the area. Nukes are difficult to obtain under normal
circumstances, requiring players to find randomly generated
nuclear codes and decipher them individually.

YouTuber Nickaroo93 and
several other players were able to decrypt the game’s nuclear
codes with a separate program and decided to launch three of the
bombs at the same time. The impact was massive, both in scope and
effect.

Less than a minute after the three nukes hit, the game’s server
came to a halt and kicked Nickaroo and the other players on the
server back to the game’s main menu. For the time being, the
concurrent launch of multiple nukes seems to be more than
“Fallout 76” can handle, though future patches to the game could
change how nuclear detonations impact the game.
