Fallout 76: 10 Of The Craziest CAMP Builds Ever Seen | Game Rant
Fallout 76 may be one of the most controversial games of this generation. When Bethesda began teasing what the game could be, Fallout fans rejoiced. Even though Fallout 4 had come out somewhat recently, they were still excited for another single-player game in their favorite franchise. However, that was far from what Bethesda was planning.
It was eventually revealed that 76 would be an online multiplayer game where players could create their own stories instead of following the ones Bethesda had crafted. Because intricate plotlines and singleplayer gameplay were what the series was known for, fans were immediately outraged. Matters were made even worse when the game released to lukewarm reviews.
Despite that, it doesn't mean that players haven't used the game to create great things in what many consider a not-so-great game.
10 Bar Hotel
One of the few features Fallout 76 players latched onto was the C.A.M.P system (which stands for Construction and Assembly Mobile Platform). This allowed them to make their own structures that they could add to the world. While there were a few things that obstructed players from fully taking advantage of this, once Bethesda fixed those issued players were allowed to go wild.
One of the many things fans loved to make was making bars or hotels. This one combined both into a single package. While the game is no Minecraft, this building-simulator is still impressive.
9 Gamer X
Right now, many gamers aren't able to visit their local video game store. However, thanks to Chris Whyley, they can at least visit one virtually in the world of Fallout 76.
Gamer X is decked out with movie posters and an anthropized bottle of ketchup. The red brick facade gives off vibes that this is a mom-and-pop store that could be anywhere. However, the tank and satellites on top immediately tell a gamer that the store is a bit nerdier than the gas station down the street.
This user has also made a Nuka Cola bar and an Ikea.
8 Theatre
One of the worst things we could use in an apocalypse is art. However, Build with Bytes is doing its best to make sure humankind doesn't lose its greatest gift.
In the video's description, the YouTuber states that the initial inspiration was the domed glass ceiling building piece. That and the lion statues outside tell a traveler that their night at the theatre is going to be a classy experience. The interior depicts a performance that's telling an epic tale of man against beast.
7 Art Gallery
The vast majority of C.A.M.P builds are the result of a single person's efforts. However, this art gallery was the result of many virtual artists coming together to create something special.
As outlined in this Rock, Paper, Shotgun article, the idea came about when user Howie was making small designs on 1x1 squares. He then realized how cool it would be if multiple players got together to make an art show. The idea caught on, and it lead to many amazingly creative pieces being added to the show. It even inspired an in-game cult called the Bunnyhood who carried on the art show's traditions.
6 Wasteland Brews
Wasteland Brews is the first fully-fledged bar on this list. Its good to know that even in the apocalypse, people still have a place they can go to relax.
The bar, which recently underwent some refurbishments, sports the taxidermy remains of several beasts that roam the remains of West Virginia. The barstools are situated into an open space so that the patrons can appreciate the beauty of wastelands while they enjoy their drinks. The spot is a location on various 76 virtual bar crawls.
5 El Gato
An establishment that players also bar crawl to is El Gato Pub. Even though its located on a river, what goes on inside this bar is anything but beautiful.
While there are more normal events like bingo, El Gato Pub also hosts The Litter Box Boxing Arena. Its home to "Cat Fight Night" where players duke it out to take the top spot. They also host flash mobs with a dedicated theme, the most recent being astronauts. In addition, the pub also has its own dedicated Twitch channel which can be reached here.
4 Sunnytop Saloon
If players want to have an adventure that harkens back to the past instead of the future, the Sunnytop Saloon is where they should go.
Crawler2000 built the bar after he received praise for his fifties themed eatery, Plutonium Pastries. Recognizing the fact that players enjoyed themed experiences, he modeled Sunnytop Saloon after real western bars from the 19th century.
If players want to find this bar, go to the Savage Divide and go west of Sunnytop Station. Inside, they'll find depictions of the natural wildlife and other pieces that evoke more peaceful times.
3 Whitesprings Campground
While players have made many places to sit back and drink, few have constructed places for players to hang their hat.
This campground has a pleasing color palette of red, green, and brown. While it may get dark at night, the old-timey lanterns and the electric "welcome home" sign should keep the darkness away. And if they want eccentricities to their camping experience, there's a plane engine and propeller located on the right side of the building. After their stay, a sign above the main office beckons them to "visit beautiful West Virginia".
2 Riverside Manor
Many players like to build settlements for others to congregate at, but occasionally its nice to build a place for yourself.
Riverside Manor might be one of the most beautiful C.A.M.P. builds that's been made in the game. However, it might not have been built on official standards (not to discredit how amazing it is). A brief glitch in the game allowed players to get unlimited items in the game.
Unlocking it involved a complicated process of acquiring the Powered Gates plan and adding and removing a door. This would allow them to refill their budget and create whatever their hearts desired.
1 Monorail Tower-House
As hailed by Kotaku, this C.A.M.P build may be the greatest one ever made in the game.
The Monorail Tower-House took butterhead over a dozen hours to build at the time the article was written. The concept of the C.A.M.P. was that it was the remains of a fallen monorail. Getting the pixels between objects just right was one of the many things that led to the build taking so long to make.
Even though many players were disappointed by 76, its clear that at least in some ways Bethesda accomplished their vision of a world where players create their own stories. From bar crawls, mansions, fight nights, and even flashmobs, the C.A.M.P. builds in Fallout 76 are some of the most interesting things going on in the gaming sphere that few people know about.
