More patches, more glitches. "Fallout 4" is notorious for glitches, and it's more of the same as a new glitch, this time for duplication, allows players to make multiple copes of essentially any item they want.
Duplication is a coveted glitch as it allows players to make multiple copies of anything ranging from unique items to items that they might need in bulk. With that in mind, it's only truly valuable to console players since those on the PC can just use console commands to spawn anything into the game.
Our latest glitch comes to us from a Redditor named Dream-Brother, who posted a text guide of the glitch, teaching players how to duplicate their resources. He later added a link to a video where you can see the duplication glitch in action.
Here's how it works:
Step 1: Go to any settlement and empty your inventory into a nearby container for ease of access.
Step 2: Open your workbench, choose a material and then put it in your inventory.
Step 3: Here is the tricky part: press X/Square, A/X then B/Circle as quickly as possible. Some report it's easier to do this step if you do it in a "ba-dum-tsss" rhythm, where you quickly press the first two buttons then leave a slight pause before pressing the third. Others, on the other hand, just say to swipe across all four face buttons. No matter how you go about it, if successful, you will see the scrap box appear briefly before disappearing while the "store item" text remains on screen. If you click yes, the game will both scrap the item for its worth in resources but also store the resource at the same time, effecitvely doubling it.
Step 4: Repeat to your heart's content.
This glitch is a great way for console players to get their hands on mass resources to build whatever they want for the "Wasteland Workshop" DLC which dropped Tuesday. Technically this glitch was discovered Monday, but it should still work according to a repost of the glitch from Hey I'm Starlord, the same YouTuber who brought us the exp glitch.
As with all glitches, this is bound to be patched out eventually, so be sure to act fast and get your fill before it goes away.
