Fallout 76’s long-awaited “Locked & Loaded” update, the one that revamps the game’s S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and C.A.M.P. systems, is finally out on Tuesday. This update is the one that’s been previewed multiple times before through Bethesda’s Inside the Vault posts as well as through previews on the game’s test servers where players could hop in and see what was new for themselves. It’s got more included in it than just the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and C.A.M.P. features, but as players will know, those have been the highlights of the update since it was first announced.
C.A.M.P. Slots, S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Loadouts, and brand-new Season rewards come to #Fallout76 in the newest “Locked & Loaded” update!

Your characters will gain access to S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Loadouts starting at level 25.
Currently, each character can have up to two S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Loadout slots, and you can swap between them using a Punch Card Machine.
In addition, you can rename your Loadout slots, which will help you quickly tell them apart.
While in your C.A.M.P, open up the Build menu, navigate to the Crafting tab, select the Punch Card Machine, and place it down.
We’ve also placed Punch Card Machines at Train Stations throughout Appalachia, in The Crater, and at Foundation.
You can use any Punch Card Machines you find in other players’ C.A.M.P.s, as well.
Currently, each of your characters will have access to two C.A.M.P. Slots: The C.A.M.P. you already have in-game, plus an additional Slot.
You can use the C.A.M.P. Slots menu to see all your current C.A.M.P. Slots, rename them, choose their Map icons, and decide whether your C.A.M.P. is visible to other players on the Map.
A.M.P. names are only visible to the player who built them.
Your active C.A.M.P.’s Map icon will appear gold to you.
If you enable your active C.A.M.P.’s Public Map Icon, it will appear on the map in white to other players. When the Public Map Icon is disabled, only you will be able to see it.
Only you will be able to see the icons for your stored C.A.M.P.s.
Additionally, powering a Vending Machine no longer automatically adds a Vendor icon to your C.A.M.P.’s location on the Map. Instead, you must set this yourself from using the C.A.M.P. Slots menu.
To change which C.A.M.P. you would like to use, head to the Map to click one of your C.A.M.P.s, or select it in the C.A.M.P. Slots menu, and then choose “Activate CAMP”
Your stored C.A.M.P.s will not load into the world, show icons to other players on the Map, or produce resources from Resource Generators.
