How to unlock the First Contact achievement

    Story related and can't be missed.

    Upon exiting vault 76 you will get a waypoint to the overseers C.A.M.P. In her camp, the quest First Contact will begin. Follow the road south from the camp to the town of Flatwood and continue yor search for the overseer there. As soon as you finish the related tasks in Flatwood the achievement will unlock.

    If you played the B.E.T.A and completed the mission, you might be required to create a new character and replay the mission for the achievement to unlock until Bethesda implement a way to get achievements retroactively.

    While in the overseers camp, be sure to craft some armor and a weapon to unlock the related achievement A Fighting Chance (craft a weapon). The crafting supplies you recieved in Vault 76 will be sufficient to craft a weapon and some armor.

    If you give a negative vote, please leave a comment so I might improve future solutions.

    TheVampireWaltzHas this changed with the Wastelanders update?

    XxFrAsZeRxXI just wanted to point out I think this is temporarily broken. I can’t get the mission to pop up on a new character no matter how many I make. Plus no one has popped this since the last update went live 2 days ago.

    EDIT: Apparently others are getting it, I’ll have to try again.

    EDIT 2: They changed it, that was my problem. You have to do the Wayward Souls mission, then you will receive the First Contact mission.
