How to best take advantage of the free Fallout 1st offer?

[ChubbiChibbai]

I've seen a few people say in the past that while 1st isn't neccesarily worth it long term - the best thing to do if you do have it for a short while is to fill your extended scrap chest up and ammo chest so you can then take advantage of them when 1st expires.

I'm not sure how long this free 1st offer lasts for but don't have any intention of paying once it's expired as it really doesn't sound like good value for momey

However - since they are offering a free trial - What should new players be doing to take advantage of it for however long we have it for?

I'm a new player as well, or at least I'm returning after several years, and as far as I can tell the Fallout 1st Trial is probably not as useful for new players as it would be for veterans. I don't really know how long it would take to fill my regular Stash Box with junk/scrap but I'm pretty sure it will take a lot longer than the trial period. So, by the time a Scrap Box or Ammo Box would be worth having the trial will already be over. And since I'm new to the game anything I put in the Scrap Box usually gets used up when I improve my C.A.M.P. or upgrade gear anyway. But since I have it I'm using it and putting everything in it until I can't. But like I said, I feel like it's way more useful for veteran players than it is for new players.

i'm on the 1 week trial and i love it. I can spawn that tent and use the infinite supply box to scrap and put my junk in, helpful to fill it and clear inventory. I still find myself overburdened most of the times but it's noice.

do you get the costume cosmetics with the trial?

Personally, I recommend a massive material run. That's what I did during my last free trial. I ook everything that wasn't bolted down, scrapped it, and put it in the scrap box for later. You can continue to pull from the scrap box even after the trial ends.

Ok thanks for the advice.
Also - with 1st it looks like you still have to pay for various cosmetics etc? Is that correct - but having 1st gives you access to the ability to purchase them?

Server hop and check player venders for treasure maps and if you can find them cheap , Buy them all , you get tonz of stuff to scrap

If you need help finding the spots ;p

For the free cosmetics do you get to keep them after you cancel 1st?
So say i signed up for a few months and then cancel - what happens to all the free stuff i claim,

Unless you want to get into the big grinds like daily ops, seasons and expeditions there isn't much to do after the questlines are done.

That's a good way to think about it. Thanks.
I'll probably do the same.

Can anyone confirm if the trial gives the cosmetic outfit or only with the paid version?

YOU NEED TO PAY TO GET COSMETICS AND EMOTES
