Fallout 4 Unlimited Bottle Cap Currency Exploit Found
If you are playing Fallout 4 and are strapped for some bottle cap cash, Gamezone might have a solution for you. In the world of the Fallout franchise, the Wasteland of Earth has bottle caps as its primary currency, but there appears to be an exploit for players to get unlimited bottle caps through a glitch in the game. Now, exploits like this are usually patched, so it’s very possible this is something the dev team might fix soon. In other words, if gamers want to take advantage of the exploit, time is of the essence.
The catch is more that the vendors will be indebted to the player, and as a trade, players can clean out that vendors entire inventory of supplies. You will only get as many caps as that vendor has available, and you can purchase their goods with the excess money owed to you. It’s currently only confirmed to work for the PS4 version. Per the above link, here’s the process for the exploit:
1.) Head to a vendor and barter.
2.) First decide an ammo type you want to use the glitch with. Choose the ammo you have the least of or care the least about since that’s the one that will be used the glitch.
3.) Select vendor’s inventory and select the ammo of your choice that you wish to use the glitch with (example. 308 Round). Purchase all of it but do not finalize the deal by hitting “accept” a second time.
4.) Select your inventory and sell back the same ammunition you just purchased (.308 Round). Return just one. Accept, but don’t finalize. He should have one and you should have the rest.
5.) Return to your inventory again and select the rest of that same ammunition (.308 Round) and sell them all back. You should still be left with one. This means you’re glitch is ready.
6.) Continuing pressing “sell” and you’ll see the total number of bottle caps on your side go up while the vendor’s is in the negative.
7.) Go back to their inventory and select that same ammo (.308 Round). Purchase them all, but make sure you have the amount of bottle caps that would cost already in your inventory (If it would cost 1000 caps, make sure you have 1000 caps). Repeatedly “Buy” that ammo back and you’ll see the amount the vendor owes you grow exponentially.
8.) Once the vendor owes you a ton of bottle caps, you can purchase the rest of the vendor’s inventory items.
9.) Finally accept the deal. The game will warn you that the vendor doesn’t have enough caps. Accept anyway and you’ll finalize it.
The exploit will only allow players to receive the number of bottle caps the vendor currently has, but they will get all the items they bartered for. You can also check out a video tutorial of this exploit below (via DemonAsylum).
