GOT WORD OF ANOTHER SETTLEMENT THAT NEEDS OUR HELP
>>317329135
do these fucking EVER stop
really, someone answer me
I USED TO BE A MINUTEMAN LIKE YOU
>>317329135
Him and Mama Murphy have the two worst VAs in the game.
>>317329201
infinite quests
>>317329232
Yeah but thankfully you don't need to deal with them much.
>>317329263
as I expected, thanks
>>317329263
that's it, I'm joining the brotherhood.
That is literally everytime I talk to that guy even if I'm already in a mission for him
>>317329381
Brotherhood has infinite quests too, but they can be ignored.
ABOUT THOSE SETTLEMENTS......
>>317329381
Join the Institute and progress humanity you filthy fucking sub-human
>get tried and didn't do their shit
>time out and quest fail
>cait Idolize you and want your D
>>317329263
They can't be infinite, since there's a finite number of locations on the map. I know that helping already established settlements is probably infinite, but not founding settlements. Honestly I'm wondering when this shit will be over as well, I thought the Mirelurk Queen fight would be the last one but I've done about 20 more after that and there's still no end in sight. Can anyone confirm what the end-game to this questline is?
>>317329201
No, they dont. Just dont do them, though if you're hurting for some xp and loot they're a great way to grind both.
>kidnapping at abernathy farm
>raider problems at oberland station
>ghoul trouble at tenpines bluff
Who is this red head with the sexy Scottish accent?
>please help us we're being attacked by super mutants with rocket launchers for the 20th time
HOW ABOUT I LOCK YOUR SETTLEMENT IN A METAL BOX WITH NO DOOR HUH?
>>317329201
No. He's a nigger. When do they do anything but whine?
Preston Gravy is a faggot, I made him a farmer.
>>317329517
You get back to back raider/ghoul attacks or kidnapping as places constantly respawn bad guys and keep re-triggering the quest over and over.
doing a warhammer 40k run should I go brotherhood or institute?
>>317329517
There is no limit.
Pretty sure it goes hand in hand with the no level cap. Lets players keep doing quests and just grind their level up.
Each faction has their own infinite quests I'm pretty sure.
>>317329517
The locations just refresh you dummy
Five times the same two people have been kidnapped from sanctuary, two times they were at the same location I had just cleared so I walked in without there being enemies and found them sitting in the back.
If I ignore these quests, they die, right?
>>317329232
Mama Murphy is at least entertaining with her shitty accent, Preston's VA just sounds bored as hell.
>>317329725
>you will never be able to call them a retard
>>317329664
Can confirm this. I made a point of paying attention where the quests made me go and I've finally reached the point where it's starting to recycle. Of course by that point I could level the whole building just running and gunning with a 12 guage but still.
>>317329725
It would be extremely painful.
>>317329632
I really wish you could kill even important NPCs like Preston. I'd love to take that lazy nigger down to the Glowing Sea and just fucking leave him there to get fucked to death by Deathclaws and Giant Rad Scorpions.
Having said that, if you want a good way to form relationships with companions, the tedious as fuck Minutement quests are a really effective way to do it.
>Do anything nice in a Minutemen quest
>Piper liked that
>Piper loved that
>Piper admires you
>Piper wants your dick
>>317329436
and these can't?
>>317329517
Oh no, you don't understand the scope of "Infinite". Let's have a rundown.
>Quest to recruit ends after a while. You can "recruit" settlements you recruited for other factions as well.
>Finally have all areas set up for Minutemen. Now, it's assisting
True story time
>Ghoul Problems in Sanctuary
>Kill all the ghouls, return
>Good job. I've got word of another Settlement blah blah blah
>Ghoul Problem in Sactuary
>AGAIN
Everyone ends up having a problem as soon as you solve another. It creates a problem for you to solve. The system behind everything waits for you to complete your mission, and then forces a new problem. Have you seen Cabin in the Woods?The people behind the scenes in Fallout are doing the same thing; flipping a switch and creating a new issue that the Synths you helped will make up. The Institute is creating issues to slow you down. They're purposely harming their own synths in controlled experiments and settings so that you are sent on a folly misson. The entire Wasteland is Synths, but they don't know it. Everyone is in on the action. The Minutemen, the Brotherhood of Steel, and even the Railroad; all pawns of the Institute.You are being used. There is no Commonwealth. It's merely a game.
>>317329815
4 u
>caring about any Settlement that isn't Spectacle Island
Given it's location it's the only logical place to make a settlement. Maybe the castle too.
>>317329135
I did about 20 of these. Finally something happened that broke it for me.
>Got word of a new settlement that needs help
>It's sanctuary. I'm already here.
>Go to guy, hey we need help can you clear out some raiders just around the corner
>Check map
>raider camp is literally on the opposite side of the map in the bottom right corner below boston common
Right around the corner my ass.
>>317329517
These quests can send you to the same spot several times in a row. The BoS quests did that for me, was an easy source of exp until I grew bored and stopped doing them.
>>317329980
4/10
>>317329998
This desu senpai
>>317329381
Like that has any effect
Seriously, mod to remove all radiant quests when.
I hate that letdown of thinking someone's going to ask me something interesting and then nope, more generic bullshit.
>>317330258
It will piss off Preston so that's enough.
>>317329998
I like Hangman's Alley. Finch Farm is okay, too. Fuck Sanctuary, Red Rocket, Tenpines, and Starlight, though.
Mod that allows you to actually coordinate minutemen strikes on problem areas when?
>>317330178
Can we have the filter just filter everything to blanks please its really annoying to have this happen
I'MINLOVEI'MINLOVEI'MINLOVEI'MINLOVE
>>317329685
Brotherhood is Space Marines, Institute is Adeptus Mechanicus.
If I join the brotherhood of steel, am I locked into the brotherhood route?
>>317329135
Pfft, nice hat Calamity Jane..
>>317330340
50s music editing was interesting theine after that is clearly a completely different take
>>317330043
>The BoS quests did that for me
Which ones specifically are you talking about? The two people in the police station? I think they're labled Quartermaster and something else. Because I've just started those and if they're the same shit as the Minutemen stuff I'm not even gonna bother.
>>317330379
No. The lock happens right before you board a Vertibird, it tells you outright "if you board this, the institute will forever hate you".
The railroad swerve is just a mission before that, so you could still join the railroad aslong as you wait before accepting the mission to kill them
Wait why is this division of the BOS like 2 people?
>>317330258
It does. It literally blows a hole in the city.
Mama Murphy hasn't let me feed her addiction for a while now. When I speak to her, it just opens trade. Any particular way to trigger her so she can just OD already and get out of that chair?
>>317330553
Are you questioning Tod's decision?
>>317330473
Yes, those. The female sends you to go find tech. It kept sending me to the same spot, so I would just go there, retrieve it, turn it in, gain a big exp bonus, repeat.
The guy has you go clearing camps of ghouls and shit.
>>317330473
>Because I've just started those and if they're the same shit as the Minutemen stuff I'm not even gonna bother.
They're quite literally "Go there and clear the place out" and "Go here, clear the place out, and bring me back a specific item".
Sends you to semi-random places, which repeat after a certain mount of quests.
Infinite.
>>317330631
Yes kiss my ass todd

Scribe Haylen;
>Go here

It's impressive and sad how one game can have so few real objectives for grinding. Even WoW has better repeatable quests.
>>317329980
Tinker Tom stop posting and go build some more MILAs
>>317330379
Don't think so. I'm currently part of the Brotherhood, Railroad, and Institute, and as far as I can tell being allied with one (Or all of them in my case) doesn't effect the others in the slightest. I just convinced Dr.Li to leave the Institute and join back up with the Brotherhood and people at the Institute still treat me the same.
>>317330747
Tinker Tom is the only good thing about the Railroad. Shame he has to die every time. I'd totally hire him as BoS or Minutemen, or replace him with a similar synth as Institute.
>>317330553
You mean the recon group you find in the police station?
Read the computers, there used to be a whole bunch more but they all died. Not unexpected for long range recon with no support.
This game needs kill moves like skyrim
would be awesome
>>317330631
Is there an important person named Todd? Please tell me there's an important person names Todd.
>>317330717
At least the latter two you mentioned add a pretty good element for loot.
The static fetch/kill quests are fucking horrid though.
>>317330838
But it does you fucking dumbwit.
Confirmed for gunnin peasant.
>>317330838
Do crit kills with unarmed. You sometimes dropkick motherfuckers.
I think these shitty quests are literally there just so you can rank up with companions
>>317330838
It does have them. There is one in melee where you literally body slam a guy, there is also the neck snap from behind
>>317329135
>not just ignoring the Minutekeks from the start
>>317330043
>These quests can send you to the same spot several times in a row.
So places that you've already saved just refresh and get filled with baddies again?
Sounds like a great way to reward the player and make them feel like they have an effect on the world.
>>317329589
>sexy
Kill it with fire
>>317329980
U-UNATCO?
>>317330883
>>317330890
>>317330894
>you need crit meter for that
oh man.... why not get one for every 5th kill... shitty fuck
alright then, thanks anons
>>317331018
After a while, ALL locations will reset. This includes the loot inside, the enemies and even locked doors.
If you loot the guy across the bridge near sanctuary, like 10 hours later, he will respawn with a full inventory.
protip, do the mission for the guy that sells baseball bats, easiest 300 caps you'll earn
So what do you think your character would do in the Instutute as Grandfather?
Tenpines Bluff, the Zeta-fuckingwhatever just north of it and Finch farms. Without fucking fail it is these 3 settlements 90% of the time. And it's always. ALWAYS. Super mutants in Franieul hall, Raiders in the Satcom Array, and Raiders in the ironworks. I even have 8 turrets at every one and still out of all 20 settlements those 3 are attacked without end. Goddamnit Todd.
>>317331063
You don't need crit meter, really. Crits can happen any time. The VATS crit is just a guaranteed slow-mo one. I can only say this because I've melted people with plasma without using VATS.
>>317331182
well, guns yeah, but no melee animations like in skyrim, where youd have a special animation for kills every now and then
>>317331063
Try bashing people with your rifle while they have low health.
Sometimes it becomes an insta-kill. Stabbing a Raider in the throat with a bayonett is pretty neat.
>>317331223
i want an extra animation mang
>>317330883
>not injecting 20 Psycho's
>eating hundreds of mentats and injecting medX
>not charging into battle in a rage with just knuckle dusters
>>317331223
Litterally never had this happen with a rifle, but it happens all the fucking time with my pistol.
What gives?
>>317331182
Crits happen outside vats? They removed the notification 3 had then
>>317331289
It is an extra animation though.
Just give it a fucking try already.
>>317331359
It usually happens when enemies have low health. I dunno what exactly triggers it.
>>317331214
You can get melee crit kill animations without VATS. You have to use power attacks. I rarely get to do it though, since I can't get good melee/unarmed damage. It just sucks. That, or I suck at melee.
>>317331408
You hear a "cha-ching" sound, as if you gained exp. No text notification though, sorry deaf players.
>>317330823
>Minutemen
I think you can unite the railroad with the minutemen
>>317329135
WELL MOVE YOUR NIGGER ASS OUT OF SANCTUARY AND FUCKING HELP THEM YOU'VE BEEN A MINUTEMAN LONG BEFORE ME

Mama Murphy's VA sounded like she tried too hard.
Preston's like he tried too little.
>>317331640
Just wait, I saw Art fighting Art 3 separate times.
>>317331631
That station's pretty good, they have the big stuff of course but also other stuff like beethoven's op. 127
>>317331509
You see, I kinda wanna do this. The BoS are real assholes in this game (They're basically /pol/), way more than they were in Fallout 3, and the Institute is just as fucking bad, be it for different reasons. The Minutemen and Railroad seem like the only factions out for the overall benefit of the Commonwealth. Having said that, I don't really want some sunshine and rainbows bullshit happy ending either. I want a bomb to drop, just not on the Commonwealth itself.
What do? Also.does that Liberty Prime thing the BoS are doing actually go anywhere or is it just smoke and mirrors?

>>317331640
wait til you meet preston after you meet preston
can you yourslef become some sort of half synth?
like vampire in the TES games?
You know what I really hate?
The fucking MC himself.
When he first wakes up in the Vault you can clearly hear how desperate his situation his.
Then you get out of the Vault, the MC is snapping for air when he first sees nuked Boston.
Even when he talked to Codsworth for the first time he is still shocked about the enitre fucking situation.
But after that it's like he accepted everything. Mutated deers, Ghouls, Raiders, Deathclaws. You name it. He dosn't care. He dosn't wonder how these things turned up. He just sits there, waiting for you to choose one of the 4 possible answers in the same monotone voice.
>>317331134
My game doesnt respawn enemies correctly.
Turrets spawn on their sides and characters just lay there where they died the first time
HOW TO REMOVE THAT SHITTY BLUE FOG THATS EVEN INDOORS!?
>>317332143
yeah that's the problem with having a protagonist like this
he barely reacts to anything even though the world changed so much
>>317331867It does.

I haven't done anything in Sanctuary besides talk to Preston, and I'm at the mission where you have to go to the Memory Den.
Fallout 4 is what like Mass Effect would be like in its developmental stages if it were being made in 2000

The fog that is always 10 feet in front of your face? That's a patented Bethesda™ feature. Happens in skyrim too. Fucking hard shadows don't appear more than 20 feet away
>>317332113If you get into the institute you see that the only augmented human is Kellog (the guy who shot your Wife).
Afterwards you can read in an institute terminal that any other human aug programs kept getting shut down.
Other than that there's a "ghoul" trait that doesn't do anything cosmetic and only heals you when you take rad damage.
>>317332440

I think I executed with a shotgun bash once
>>317332443
And here's the kicker! I did a quick save, shot one and he was human. Reloaded, shot the other, human too!!!!!
>>317331018
Some areas do and some areas don't. 99% of places do respawn after a while, some quicker than others. It's good in that I think it adds more of a living feeling to the world but it's bad because it respawns the same type of enemies. It would be great if you cleared a bunch of raiders, came back and a bunch ghouls or super mutants or something moved in instead. But it's always just whatever was originally there.

this is the 10th [Hitachi Back Massager] I've collected for the BoS this week.
>>317332629
Yeah, there really isnt any options to role play in this game.
All the shit posting /v/ was doing had a true side to it.
The game is fun sure, but man, lack of features. I mean even NV let you augment yourself in old world blues.
I need advice. What haircuts and beards do you think I could pull off?
>>317332705
Did someone say clone death arena?
>>317332606
Preston or X6-88. Strong is also pretty terrible but if you're set on being a cunt he's your only choice.
>>317332586
Do the "dungeons" respawn? I mean the areas on the map which register as CLEARED when you scroll over them.
>>317332759
Is that elder maxson's coat
>>317332759
Blonde pompadour, no beard.
Go full womanizing Johnny bravo.

You bet your ass it is. Guess how you get it?
>>317329589
lmao the amount of times I've seen Americans mistake Irish for Scottish or vice versa
>>317332840
Yes, they literally remove the [CLEARED] when enemies respawn
I was quite shocked when I learned that Paladin Danse was gay and started coming on to me. It made me feel uncomfortable, like I was suddenly playing Dragon Age or something.
Who is the best moral fag companion? Other than nick and Preston.
>>317332759
How do you get Maxson's coat?
>>317332758
Well you're citing NV's DLC. We have no DLC for Fallout 3 for comparison yet.
>>317332719
MacCready is my nigga, he acts like an asshole but he's really a cool guy underneath it
>>317332812
Actually if you're set on being a cunt Cait is the only real option. The only thing she doesn't like is you being nice to people or helping them out.

>level 28
>just now realizing that these are infinite
I'VE BEEN FUCKING TRICKED GODDAMMIT.
>>317332840
Yes. And some take longer than others to respawn. The only places that won't respawn are settlements and quest specific places (and even some of those still do)
>>317329963
No because every time you turn one in he automatically gives you another.
I mean yea you can just not do them, but they always clutter your quest list.
You also get constant shit about settlements being attacked, even though you've built adequate defenses. It's like Spore all over again.
>>317329135
Good thing I never joined them.
>EY YO HOL UP YOU WANNA BE THE MINUTE MAN?

>SHIEEEEEEEEET

>>317332952
Deacon and Hancock are decent, though Hancock is more of an "do good by the little man, punish assholes with a righteous fury".

Hancock sounds like my kind of companion, that's how I'm playing my character
>>317332719
>MacCready
>bad
He's much better than in Fallout 3.
"MILK OF HUMAN KINDNESS" and "le emotionless robot" are shit though.
Anyone else really enjoying Fallout 4 when you treat it like a Stalker game? As in focusing on carefully and patiently exploring and looting?
I just need mods for realistic survival elements like fatigue, thirst and hunger.
And weapon/armor deterioration too.
>Not every companion has a unique sidequest
What the fuck? Isn't that like a principle part of companion NPCs? That they have their own unique sidequests and shit for you to max affection? I understand this isn't some JRPG where you can do a quest to get their best weapon/armor, but the fact every companion is literally
>Yeah, I'll join you

You can help people, even for free, just don't pick the dialogue option where you suck their dick and act like a comic book superhero of justice
>>317333152
I hate maccready, everytime I say anything remotely positive he gets his panties in a bunch, what an asshole.
>>317332840
Did you play Skyrim? Same thing. Once "cleared" it only takes more time to respawn, tag is never removed.
It was added probably because people had hard time to track which bandit cave they already looted. They're frankly speaking, easy to confuse, since they're populated with same leveled enemies, and contain same leveled loot.

Alright how's this?
Anyone know the deal with the Children of the Atom? Why they have their panties in a bunch and are hostile pricks?

Hancock is someone who feels bad because many times in his life he was too afraid to stand up for people who were powerless. He finally grew some balls and literally lynched a corrupt mayor. Deacon is a former bigot who tried to get away from his old crew, only for them to catch up to him and murder his wife.
Also I totally forgot about Codsworth. He's also a more moral character.
>>317333232
It wasn't painful "so randumb," it was shenanigans pretty appropriate for the Fallout universe. Bethesda is typically pretty good at side quests, but their main story is always pretty dog shit.
>>317332204
It'sn your lantern?
>>317332143
I just hate that you can't really guide any faction after beoming essentially the boss/the actual boss.Even with maxed out INT and CHA your only options are to let everyone murder each other over being retards.
There's no peaceful way to get the BoS or Insititue to stop. You can't talk to the various branches of the Insitute to have a conversation of synths are just machines or they managed to make something that is essentially human.
Multiple times in the game you get told "You either do it or we try to kill you" or get told "You do it, or the game stops progressing"
>>317333410
Same reason why the Raiders in the fight club shoot you on sight. Bethesda rushed the game and didn't have time to program better quests or dialogue trees, and just opted to make them generic enemies instead.
>>317333410
They worship feral ghouls now.
>>317333410
i think they're just there because "HEY REMEMBER THESE GUYS?..."
strange how a bunch of radioactive retards made it across the USA but the enclave coundent figure it out.
>>317333445
Deacon made that story up. The thing to understand about Deacon is that he never tells the truth.
>>317333576
>strange how a bunch of radioactive retards made it across the USA
But they didn't. They traveled from DC to Boston. That's not a huge distance. Also the Enclave did figure it out - they went across the US after the Oil Rig was blown up to meet Eden (while a few swore off the life and escaped into places like the Mojave).
>>317333407
muttonstache instead
>>317333576
Yeah I expected to see some enclave, not just their power armor. I mean shit, I expected the BoS to be all fucking over the commonwealth well before the start of the game due to it being the technological nirvana.
>>317330838
this game need to let go TES schematics, and introduce fun to combat first. Kicking enemies on ground, dual wielding gun in one, and bayonet in other hand, beign able to actively dodging attacks, usable shields, armor beign more than passive damage reduction, etc
Good thing I killed this LEGENDARY ALPHA DEATHCLAW and got this amazing loot.
So how do I fix a bug? Whenever I fast travel my.shit crashes
>>317333530
I love how we don't even have an explanation for their sudden insanity.
>Hey remember those religious fanatics who were peaceful and worshipped an atom bomb? Well guess what, THEY'RE HOSTILE NOW!
Would you still love your son if he was as much of a dick as Shaun?
>>317333773
Bitches don't know about my SuperAmazeBalls Pool Stick with 10% damage increase when a blue moon is out and your pinky is extended.
Is there a way to get Codsworth a Synth body? Does he comment on it.
Also I found it less charming when I realized Codsworth wasn't unique as a Mr. Handy.
>>317333773
>We want the Borderlands audience.
>>317333773
I have yet to get a legendary drop I like.
I once had several random quests intervened with each other.
> Quest to clear out raider terrorising settlement
> Get back to settlement
> The quest marker shows a police station instead
> Confused, head to the settlement assuming it's a bug
> Can't return the quest because said person isn't there
> Head into the police station and clear out the raiders
> Find the quest giver in cell
> "Yea so I cleared out those raiders"
> "Thank you very much"
> We, Nick and the settler just stare at each other for a minutes until she starts to speak
> "Hey, you got to save me"
It just werks
>>317333845
Fuck no, they never bonded as father/son. Shaun is literally Kellogs adopted son. He just came out of your balls. There is 0 attachment to what shaun has become.
>>317329135
>still can't join a Raider faction
>>317333953
Found a shotgun with a chance to cripple the legs on hit, shame everything I shoot dies in a few hits for it to take effect
Who did you join ?
And why ?
>>317333821
There is a junkyard that had dead atom guys all over and a computer implying they're fucking insane and attacked a caravan, especially since they slept next to 10 barrels of waste at like 20 rads/s
>>317333706
We don't really know a lot about the situation in DC, other than the fact that the BoS and Outcasts have been reunited for a few years and they're apparently confident enough to send small scouting parties out into other states. Danse's group is the third such group to be sent to Boston, but I can see why the BoS wasn't immediately rushing over there.
Their first recon team comes back with a lot of technology. Still not convinced enough to send in their most valuable military asset, they send in a second team. The second team goes MIA and is assumed lost. A third team, Danse's team, is sent to set up a communication line between Boston and the Citadel or Prydwen. This, like ascertaining what became of their second team, is just a secondary goal. Mainly, they're there to investigate the institute. The first team probably returned with news about Synths and the Institute to the BoS, which is why they were so interested.
The Commonwealth is a bit more organized than the Capital Wasteland, though; and they're resistant to outside influences swooping in and promising to save them. The people in D.C. were in a shitty situation, but the Commonwealth doesn't have it quite as bad. So that's why the BoS isn't immediately welcomed. Also you wiped out the last of the Enclave in Fallout 3. If you let him live, Autumn might be out there somewhere, I guess.
>>317332719
I would have liked Strong better if he was locked up in the tower as an outcast for being a weak faggot (making his name ironic), then being able to turn him into killing machine as you fight together.
>>317333953
anyone else found unique weapons that never need to reload?
>>317334013
>what is the legion
>>317333953
>Got a Fat Man that increases in damage when suffering withdrawals
They're encouraging bad habits.
I've yet to find Ground Zero. Where is it anyway? I'd like to see where the bomb dropped, though I will admit I've yet to explore the Glowing Sea. Went there once wearing the Hazmat suit since I was 10 levels after I got the quest, and ended up getting fucked by Radscorpions and an Overpowered Legendary Glowing One.
ok so; the fucking /vg/ thread is full of useless retards. can anyone tell me why Anne Hargraves is a retard that won't get to the settlement I sent her too?
>>317334121
Yea I have several of them. Only really useful for full-auto guns.
Guys has anyone been successful at making a Costanza character in the game ?
>>317334121
Never ending pipe revolver. What a slow piece of shit
>>317334140
I assumed it was the radiated hell hole in the southwest corner. Is that something else?
>>317333530
I honestly thought this was a bug. The way the announcer calls you down to the cage makes you think it's gonna be some kind of fight club where you can challenge people for caps in melee style combat, but nope, they all just instantly turn hostile for no reason at all and you're never given an explanation as to why.
Even the raiders tied up in the lobby don't have any dialogue options as to why they've been tied up in the first place. Nope, they're just there, no reason as to why, they just fucking are. Ahh, that Bethesda quality. Breathe it in boys.
>>317334140
The big crater on the map in the Glowing Sea.
>>317334202
Kill yourself faggot
>>317334148
Not sure, but you can always go;
>prid 36d72
>moveto player
While in your settlement.
Am i the only one that cant found any fucking vault ?
I am playing like 12 hours and only found the 81,the one with the mafia fuckbois, and the 111.
How many of them there are ?
>>317334053
Fucking every faction apparently.
They hand out memberships to the first person they see.
Minutemen, "hey, you didn't kill a group of defenseless settlers (yet) join us"
Railroad "you followed some signs, join us"
Institute "you're my dad and I expect you to follow my thoughts to a T because I'm related to you, join us"
BoS "random waster off the street, you saved 3 people, here's power armor and you're now a knight, oh, youve joined us in clearing this place of everything that isnt us"
>>317334121
Yea but it's the bloody bolt rifle so it's utterly useless. Best I've found yet is probably a shotgun that fires 2 shot at the same time and a laser musket with 50 radiation damage per shot. Have the beam splitter mod and you melt humans.
For armour, anything named Martyr's is pretty much a must to have one piece of since it slows down time if you get bellow 20% health. It's free Jet when you need it most.
>>317334304
pretty sure theres only 3...4 if you count the one you start in
help
>>317334304
Vault 95 is on the edge of the Glowing Sea. If you get Cait at the Combat Zone she has a quest that takes you there.
>>317333519
>become the boss of the fighters guild in Oblivion
>can tell my underlings to focus on specific tasks like recruiting
>nothing ever really comes of it, but I can regularly got and collect money
>this was kinda neat but underwhelming
>surely it will be improved in the future
>>317334260
I'm glad I'm not the only one salty about that. I remember seeing a scene of the club in one of the trailers and being excited for thunderdome. but no, instead you get some lazy ass dungeon with a shit companion. What the fuck bethesda?
>>317334360
Pls dont be true
>>317334312The BoS only let you in because you were a local who wasn't suspicious are frightened of them. They immediately task you with finding the Institute because you know the area better than them. Also because you have a personal investment in finding the Institute since they magically know about your missing son.
>>317334360
There's 75, 95, 81 and 114. 114 and 95 are related to companion quests and little else, however (Nick and Cait, respectively).
>>317334292
console pleb. I tracked her and she literally didn't get far from the WRVR Broadcast Station you find her in.
Her predictably shit A.I. pathfinding makes her walk toward the settlement by going up the raised bridge nearby and she just stands there at the tip gawking at the gap because she can't get over it.
The fuck do I do about this?
>>317334428
Muthafuckin cut content. Too much time spent in the stupid homestead mechanics drained time that could've been used for better everything else
so serious question, how many decent quests are there in 4?
i'm 67 hours in, 78% achievo completion, and i can count the quests that were more than just "go here and kill x ok thanks here's 100 caps" on one hand
>>317334312
I'm pretty sure you have to do some quest for the Brotherhood before you get power armor.
>>317334373
You just have to accept it.
How are you guys squezing so many hours from this game? Im 35 hours in and im already about to find the institute entrance, and thats with barely any fast travel and stoping every once in a while to explore random places, am i missing something? Because the other Fallout games usually took longer to beat on my first playthrough
DON'T THEEY KNOOOW
IT'S THE EEEND OF THE WOOORLD
>>317334527
Take your console copy back to the store and pick up the superior PC version, pleb.
>>317334527
If she cant die, just "knock" her out and make her body fall off the edge.
>>317334493
Yeah, but dat rigorous training period to become a knight in the BoS, you literally cock slapped every paladin in the BoS from the Prwydn to Texas who was waiting for a promotion.
>>317334373
>not even in the 100+ club
I bet you don't even have most of the achievements.
>>317334581
>playing bethesda games to beat them
The fucking around part is always better.
>>317334646
it is really annoying how you meet the BoS memebers and Rhys was acting like a total dick nonstop, and as soon as you reach his rank he still says MAYBE CLEANSE A FEW MORE OF THESE SETTLEMENTS AND I'LL RESPECT YOU like fucker we're the same rank, eat a dick. Fuck Bethesda and their lazy dialogue.
>>317334527
Don't NPCs just teleport if you're not in their cell? Try moving far away and waiting a few days?
>>317333173
Seconded. Its getting boring faster than I thought it would. Can't wait for some good stalker based mods.
>>317334797
Exactly, I even went back once I was a Knight to rub it in his fucking face. "Oh, youve been training for years? Bitch I joined 5 hours ago and look at this fly power armor."
