if you log in and someone else has built in your spot, it will ask if you if you want to move your camp for free (basically does it's best to save everything the way it was, but some stuff is specific to terrain, so it'll seperate stuff into chunks that you can plop down. i've only done it once and my camp was sort of a tower that was built on a single foundation so it was super easy to move around) OR you can just change servers. honestly the only time it's an issue is if you are logging on to play with friends and the world they are in has someone already built in your spot so you have to convince your friends to stop what they are doing and server hop with you.
the number 1 thing this game has going against it is that it's made by bethesda. they have completely lost touch with what the audience actually wants, on top of their complete inability to make a game without bugs. it sort of used to be endearing, but people are really getting burned out by it.
their recent event for treasure hunting mole people is a complete bust. if you don't know you can run into legendary molemen who will drop these containers. there's a few different kinds of containers and each of them have a chance to drop some event specific items. except they are completely random where you find them, so you can't farm them. and the items IN the boxes have a SUPER low drop rate, and the legendary items that drop are low level, so they aren't even worth it. on top of that, you can spend caps to buy the more rare boxes, but they are like 4000 caps (which is fairly expensive, btw). a bunch of people have spent hundreds of thousands of caps and basically just gotten trash from it.
ON TOP OF THAT the in-game player economy has been shut down for like a week and a half because of some bug so nobody's making any real money.
people were all kinds of pissed because it's just not really worth it, no one cares about it. so bethesda, in their infinite wisdom, says "we are extending the treasure hunting moleman event for another week so you can have more opportunity to fill out your collection!"
THEN they released a recurring event, Fasnacht... i don't know what it but it's some regular holiday event thing. well it broke instantly. there's like, a robot parade or something and you have to kill critters to keep the event going. except no critters are spawning because bethesda setup their servers so that when it's gone too long without a restart, things sort of bog down. talking to npc's starts to take several seconds to initiate, lag spikes, etc. the way they fix that is by removing "clutter" from the server and critters are designated as clutter. and since there's no critters for the quest, it just hangs and nothing happens. it was supposed to launch at noon the other day. it started an hour early and was canceled by like 1230. they just said "we have to fix it, so the event is delayed until further notice."
the game itself is fine, especially with wastelanders... but the people running it are just... they don't know what their doing.
