A Fallout 4 player online has discovered an incredibly helpful glitch, which appears to give them infinite fusion cells. The glitch involves the character Caroni, who was recently introduced as part of the Fallout 4 next-gen update.

The initial launch of the Fallout 4 next-gen update was troublesome, to say the least, with many reporting the introduction of new issues upon its release. However, Bethesda swiftly patched things up, and Fallout 4's next-gen update 2 was a hit with fans. The new content was cool to see, especially for console gamers who don't have access to the full range of mods available for Fallout 4 on PC. Despite its age, there are plenty of gamers still playing Fallout 4, so it's great that new content is still being introduced for those who have stuck around.

Fallout 4 Player With Over 3,000 Hours in the Game Makes New Discovery After Killing NPC

A Fallout 4 player online makes a brand-new discovery after killing an important NPC, after 3,000 hours of playtime in the game.

Redditor BourbonAndGrilling noticed an interesting glitch with the Fallout 4 next-gen update NPC, Caroni, who appears in the quest "Best of Three." When dead, Caroni's corpse seems to generate 9 fusion cells every 18 seconds, as long as the player and the body are in an active game cell. BourbonAndGrilling carried Caroni's body to Sanctuary, where they spent a lot of time building. This essentially gave them an infinite supply of fusion cells, with the body holding 62,118 in the image. While it's unclear what causes the issue, it's definitely helpful for those who use laser-based energy weapons in Fallout 4.

Fallout 4 Infinite Fusion Cells Glitch

As a Bethesda game, it's never a huge surprise to see new Fallout 4 bugs being discovered by the community. The studio's titles are renowned for the amount of glitches they tend to have, which is one of the trade-offs for the level of ambition the games have. Ultimately, Fallout 4 is a massive game, with plenty of moving parts working in tandem to create the overall experience. One recent Fallout 4 glitch allowed players to shoot giant exclamation points, showing that some of these bugs can actually be funny, and don't all have to be game-breaking.

Although Fallout 4 has seen a surge in popularity lately, Bethesda doesn't seem to have any plans to release another game in the series anytime soon. Recently, Fallout's creator confirmed he would return to the series for the right project, and it would be interesting to see this potentially come to fruition. Let's see what Bethesda does with the IP in the wake of the TV adaptation's mainstream success.
