War never changes, but sometimes it gets patched

Last week we reported on a troubling phenomenon Fallout 76´s new human NPCs were stealing from players. Specifically, during game events when a player was killed, they would sometimes respawn to find their best weapon and all its ammo missing from their inventory.





They would then see a friendly human NPC using that same weapon. While they were dead, it seemed, the NPC had rudely looted their corpse.





As far as emergent behaviors goes, it´s actually kind of cool, but the real issue was these the NPCs wouldn´t give the weapons back ever. Which totally sucks for players who had spent hours grinding for legendary weapons only to see a Wastelander casually walk away with it.
