Update 19 adds an option to change the appearance of NPCs, although weapons and armor cannot be selected.
In a place like the wilderness, fashion doesn't seem to be the survivors' biggest concern. It wasn't until the arrival of Fallout 76: Wastelanders, the great free expansion that Bethesda Softworks made available to players just a few weeks ago. The NPCs are already here, but their taste for good dress has not been reflected until now, at which time a new update has just come out, the 19. Players will have the opportunity to customize the appearance of the allies.
This new option will give us the possibility of sharing a closet with the characters controlled by the machine. Thus, all pieces of clothing (with the exception of weapons and armor), can be exchanged thanks to a customization menu. It is a completely cosmetic option, so there will be no improvement in the characteristics of the NPC, regardless of what you wear. Of course, it will also be possible to reverse all the changes we make and automatically make them wear their usual rags.
Today we're releasing Patch 19 for # Fallout76 which introduces Ally Customization, includes new and returning events, Backpack improvements, and more!

Companions and controversy
The Fallout 76: Wastelanders NPCs took their first steps in Appalachia eager to fight. Due to a strange bug, already fixed, allies stole players' weapons when they died. Some users published in their videos their reaction of stupefaction when they discovered that one of these companions had in his hands one of the pistols that they had found so difficult to obtain. Fortunately, Bethesda got down to business and corrected the error.
This online installment, available on PC, Xbox One and PS4, will modify some of its phases thanks to a new seasons model, which Bethesda announced together with update 19. We summarize the most important details in this article, which shows the roadmap 2020. The wasteland is no longer so wasteland and will offer all kinds of challenges in the near future.
