But just to make sure, i left some ghoul leftovers, activated protectron and mined the shit out of place :^)
you know I would feel more for the minutemen if they gave more personal quests with the people you save off the bat, fucking Marcy and Jun stay pathetic the whole game, why not have a quest to avenge the raiders who murdered their child? We don't know jackshit about Sturges. Mama Murphy psyker shit would be interesting.
But the minutemen are just so goddamn vanilla with literally "clear this shit out" every single quest. Even on the main story quests.

Continuing the convo from the previous thread.
I just feel like an internal collapse is something you can make more interesting in a game context and is, in general, more interesting than LOLNUKEITAGAIN. Join the plot in media res. Help / suppress different factions in the game world. Maybe even have alternate starts (recently joined private in NCR military, gun runner merc, chem-maker or guard for blades, good-natured follower of apoc). This is way too RPG for what the series has morphed into though.

It's really buggy. And nothing can be destroyed. People can't even be killed.
Super pretty though. I hope someone releases a mod to get Sanctuary Retextured to this.
I think Operation: Anchorage would be more fun now that the game feels like an actual FPS. Maybe a mod could do a port or reimagining of it. It could feel like an actual battle.
>>123273379
With a powerful enough PC we will get dynamic lighting on every light source. How demanding is it?
>>123273526
Not sure, but I'm working on that as well for a mod.
They seriously need to add some sort of default settlement shit or something, having to build SO MUCH in each playthrought kills me.
Also, any tips on how to deploy arty? should I put some in hangman alley?
>>123273238
the corner piece without the floor attached is only facing one direction and cant be reversed. it pisses me off to no end that placing walls at a 90 degree angle can be so goddamn difficult.
>>123273430
Everything is perks now, there are no skills.
While awkward, it basically does the same thing except you're no longer cripplingly incompetent at using weapons you haven't put ranks into.
Just find the perk that gives you unarmed bonuses and put ranks into it as fast as you can, though the game makes minmaxing impossible by putting level requirements on higher perk ranks, so you can't level one thing to max right away and need to spread out more.
>>123273341

Yeah, I don't understand. You should have been clearing that place of bandits instead of Concord with power armour. Then get Power Armour when and ONLY when you join the Brotherhood, or buy a Frame for several thousand.
I wish I had worked on the other factions quests more before I went to the institute, all these synths not giving a shit if I dismember them or kill other synths in front of them makes it pretty dull.
Can I ever truly make Covenant mine?

The idea that the ayy lmaos started the Great War is a stupid meme that isn't explicitly stated anywhere, and having Alien tech inspire Lazer weaponry doesn't trespass beyond all the stupid shit made canon in Fallout lore in the past. Even with all this, it isn't told to you like a child.
>Ayy lmao pew pew XDDD
The contradictory aesthetic of modernist sincerity of 50s Americana and the horribleness of post-apocalyptic life that defines Fallout's tone fits Zeta's silly-looking classical scifi Aliens alongside all the terrible things that they do.
There are problems with Zeta, but you're just regurgitating memes.

if you dont kill anyone and get into their secret little base, you HAVE to use the persuasion option to get in to talk to the professor and accept her deal. dan will then attack you for accepting her offer, you just kill him real quick and youre good to go. the only item i noticed that was still marked as stolen was the wild mutfruit plant, so i just scrapped it.

The Minutemen suck. They're an embarrassment as a faction. Everyone outside of Sturges is useless and incapable of contributing anything to the commonwealth. They should be purged.
I really don't like how early you get power armor
Nothing is really going to be fixed is it. I mean everyone waited for mods to fix Skyrim's shitty UI and the best we got was skyUI, which, while better, was still pretty fucking garbage.
There won't really be any top down RTS style settlement building mods will there? No one will actually try and add additional dialog options/SPECIAL checks, voiced or no, will they?

Finally got a corrupt save in fo4 and all of my old saves lead to corruption eventually. Abandoning the game for a couple of years and definitely am pretty pissed about it. Posting here so everyone can enjoy my frustration.
Why is it that whenever I edit anything in any face texture, character goes full blackface? I'm trying to lower the specular maps, so that you don't look like a sweaty pig at all times.

>>123274082
To be fair, you can fix the biggest problems with the settlement building system by just turning on noclip in the console and flying around to place things where you want.
I don't exactly like the settlement building system as it is, and it seems like they threw it in at the last minute with zero support, but I don't personally see why everyone is crying about how unimaginably horrible the interface is, it's mildly annoying but it's never been a problem for me.

>>123273676
Nah, maintaining the power armour is kind of central to the game's aesthetic and tone and I feel like it's supposed to be what's keeping your pre-war character sane, having something akin to a car to work on.
What I don't get is why they try to drive it home that you're getting a "fixer-upper" set of power armour and gradually improving it throughout the game, but there's full suits of leveled power armour all over the place and power armoured enemies are stupidly common, and you start with a full suit of t-45. Even the suit in the intro is a mix of t-45, t-51 and t-60, with one or two pieces (idr which) missing.
Cores should deplete about twice as fast (the same speed as vanilla once you have all the nuclear physicist perks), and the suit you get in concord should just be a frame and a t-45 gauntlet with the rest being rusted scrap that falls apart when you put it on, and power armour in general should be harder to come by, so it's actually like you're fixing up the suit and not just grabbing it from a vertibird wreck and slapping some mods on it that will last you the whole game.
>>123274053
>>123274235
Power armor not needing training is stupid. I know that's not how it was in the original games but still it really helped reinforce it being for elite soldiers and not something you could throw any dumbass into and suddenly they're a deathmachine.

I would love to see how Legion society evolved since the death of Caesar, the turmoil of all of a sudden losing the core of what defined the Legion, with nationalist-types like Ulysses (except with less autism) inspired by how Caesar united the disparate tribes into a single nation-state or nostalgics for a tribal past, large Spartacusesque slave rebellions, and how Legion military officers reacted to the political vaccuum with their infighting.

I guess I'd just like it to be a little more well done. Especially the clipping issues. I don't know why the only thing that can noclip through shit is the foundations. Why is Todd afraid that I'm going to cheat during settlement building when he just spawns enemies in the fucking center anyway.
>>123274042
The Minutemen are hands down the most powerful faction if you take the time to invest in them.
Their numbers, logistics and artillery support gives them uncontested control of the Commonwealth and they're entirely capable of destroying the BoS and Institute if you desire.
Besides the Minutemen are a lot bigger than that one little group once you begin recruiting, literally every settlement you build is a Minuteman outpost and once you rebuild them you start seeing Minuteman patrols fighting monsters and helping settlements.
Minutemen are like every good thing about the NCR but without the bureaucracy and crippling arrogance.
>>123274345
I like most of these ideas except for the faster core depletion. Power Armor really feels like something you should work towards over the whole game, not jump into within an hour of gameplay and be able to fuck shit up hardcore. It's like Skyrim and the shouts -- too easy, too early. Bethesda's trends towards making you the Unstoppable Figure of Destiny within the first couple hours of gameplay have gotten annoying
Is it already possible somehow to mod in a weapon with unique stats? I'd know how to do it with the GECK, but not without.

>>123274514
>>123274518
You can put your companions in power armor too, if you have enough charisma you can force a random NPC to get into power armor. I think power armor just straight up doesn't require training to use anymore. Which is a shame since I really liked how they made the NCR have their own form of salvaged power armor.
>>123274518
You can order any companion into it and, if attacked, random settlers will get inside any power armor that has a fusion core in it.
So no, they just decided lol no more training. Along with lolno no more mini nuke reactors powering the armor for centuries.

Sexlab in Skyrim kinda had cuddling.

>>123274416
They last two hours with no nuclear physicist perks if you don't use AP. Unless you're sprinting everywhere, constantly holding your breath when sniping and/or using the jetpack they should last a long time. And you get so many of them that it's pretty much impossible to run out, even if you jetpack everywhere. You'd actually have to worry about not having cores at some point if you doubled their decay rate, and nuclear physicist would actually be good for something other than boosting radiation damage.

No, YOU are capable if destroying these things.
Now lets say, just for a hot second, that you aren't there but you rebuilt the minutemen completely. What are they going to do against say, Liberty Prime? Shell it? With what shells? Will they do a better job than THE ENCLAVE with all their soldiers, power armor, training, and advanced weaponry?
The minute men are the only decent faction but they're decent because they're dependent on you.

I think the first one you get is almost depleted when you get it, it should last just about long enough to kill the raiders and deathclaw and get back to sanctuary (so about ten minutes). I don't remember for sure but that's how long it lasted me, and every one since then has lasted for fucking ever.
>>123274786
ZZZzzzzZZZzzzz
>>123274739
What if the institute scientists are synths as well and it's all just a forgotten experiment from Big MT?
>>123274632
The changes to the lore of Power Armor are what upsets me the most. It's why I modded my Fusion Cores to never deplete because having to repair the armor is a big enough issue for me already to limit use to only when needed.
I also hate how all the lore and even loading screens still claim the T-51 is the best prewar power armor, but now the T-60 is better in every measurable way.
It really pisses me off that Bethesda put a barely redesigned version of their iconic armor as the much more common, easily acquired and more powerful alternative to the most classic and iconic personal gear in the entire series, and contradicted decades of lore just so their iconic armor could be the most popular.

Think about it. They have the ability to create and imprint memories. You don't NEED to eat or sleep to survive. Shaun declares that you are his succsessor shortly after meeting you.
It's all an elaborate ploy to create someone who would carry on his polices into the next generation.

I hate how stealth up close is nearly impossible until the exact moment you get the third perk in it, and how after that you're undetectable
>>123274616
play slower you faggot. i have 30 fusion cores, never use my power armor. i just got my first assault rifle last night. enjoy the little things instead of being a psychotic quester.
God fucking dammit, follower can't shoot for shit and they are fucking blind.
I was shooting at some raider for a good 20 sec and she haven't detected them yet.
>>123274841
>I also hate how all the lore and even loading screens still claim the T-51 is the best prewar power armor, but now the T-60 is better in every measurable way.
Nope
T-60 was the latest model produced
It's just that T-51 was more important overall because they had more of them
It's like saying the T34 was the best WW2 tank just because there was like a million of them
>>123274991
Now that you mention it, it really does look like it.
Was going for a biker/tough guy melee build so I guess it kinda fits.
>>123274786
Have you actually done the minutemen quests? They get artilleries that launch barrages of mini-nukes that destroy everything in a general vicinity, and building them up means one of those in every settlement and 100% ground coverage with mininuke strikes that theoretically any minuteman could call with a smoke grenade (which in practice they likely don't do because it would make the flare gun overpowered and come with a high risk of dumb AI killing the player with FF). The fact that it isn't deployed from space is irrelevant, that would destroy the shit out of Liberty Prime.
Build up affinity with Nick too, he tells you a nice little story about why an organisation like the Minutemen hasn't united the Commonwealth and formed a stable government yet. It has nothing to do with this weird notion that a republican militia is nothing without a single person arbitrarily called "leader" because they were brave enough to put on a suit of power armour and shove a minigun down a deathclaw's throat, and if you side with the Minutemen you ensure it will never happen again in the course of the story.
>>123274661
The balanced her being the cutest waifu with kind of a lame perk. Maybe it's just because I never get below 10% this late in the game.The other waifu's perks are even worse.
>>123275009
>cute brown girl with french accent
I'd be okay with this.
>>123274810
They started showing up for me after I had a dozen or so settlements and retook The Castle. Not random townsfolk mind you but sometimes three or four Minuteman NPCs with better combat gear and the standard Minuteman coats would show up in towns, or I'd run into them on the road patrolling trade routes.
>>123274786
No shit, the Minutemen only become powerful after you invest in rebuilding them.
If you take the time to rebuild them properly and put the effort into them, they have dozens of settlements and hundreds of people working for them, well armed and armored town guards with turret emplacements, reliable trade routes and a network of artillery support.
You may be directly responsible for destroying the Institute but if you go against the BoS it's the Minutemen as a whole who obliterate the Brotherhood with artillery fire and shoot the Prydwen out of the sky.
Considering you're the leader of the Minutemen, your feats are their accomplishments too, and if you decide that your equipment should also be theirs, then they have a significant amount of power armor and advanced weapons to boot.

Oh man this is a surprising set of lore thrown at me at once and I am getting outrageously hard
>>123275130
The lore has always been pretty explicit in saying that the T-51 was the pinnacle of prewar power armor and the most advanced, powerful suit ever built before the Enclave came around.
Now it's only second best and you even find a ton more of it in the game because it's the Brotherhood's main armor.
Rather than, say, Advanced Power Armor, which is actually the best, and would even make sense considering that the Columbia Brotherhood should be sitting on a pretty war chest of Enclave tech after winning their war.
>>123275171
So did the Enclave my man. They had everything the minutemen had plus you know, vertibirds, weaponized death claws, ungodly powerful weapons and power armor.
Didn't help much.
The minutemen have the same thing the BoS had in FO3.
Plot armor.

Nah, companion perks are permanent, you don't need to have them with you.
Her perk restores your HP by 100 when it goes below 10% once a day.
She does, however, sometimes also give you stims as gifts.

Doesn't it work if you just click "buy as gift -> add to inventory" then add it to your library from the steam inventory?
>>123275273
Literally just jewery, which should be illegal, because when you think about it, you're paying for the licenses and they have included the license for that game in the package. If you own two licenses for a game you own two copies.
>>123275397
>Her perk restores your HP by 100 when it goes below 10% once a day.
That's actually pretty handy when I'm fumbling to stimpack myself and I'm on fire or getting shot at.

they randomize
>>123275332
And the Enclave also destroyed Liberty Prime.The BoS in FO4 have something the BoS in FO3 didn't, their entire command and possibly their entire chapter aboard an ill-conceived zeppelin that is just prime to be shot out of the air with an artillery nuke or, you know, taken down by the Sole Survivor.

It would make sense because they could be from before the war, keeping their old style and personality.
Or because they're immersing themselves in a new look and feel because they need to assert control over their lives after their transformation.

That looks really cool, does your mod also add shadows to areas that should have shadows? No one in most interiors have shadows, especially the Institute.
My PC probably couldn't handle that unless I upgraded, but gives a lot of incentive to do so.

Yeah, wondered about that, didn't get the robot get rekt at some point in FO3?
Pretty sure it got blown up or something when you assaulted an Enclave outpost
>>123275436
to call it an "ak-47" and have a gun that looks exactly like an ak varient, one has to find the patent holder and ask permission to display it and use its design.
in earlyer games they were not as big of a company and noone gave a shit, it was seen the same as some guy drawing an ak in a fantasy sketch, but now bethesda are huge and someone would probably sue them.
even the tommy gun has been modified to not look like a thompson completely.
the "chinese" rifle is a fucked up AK varient but far enough away from an actual AK-47 or AK-M

>>123275665
The Chines Assault Rifle was actually pretty cool in my opinion because every bit of it was taken from a different AK clone or derivative and Frankensteined together.
Felt like it could really be a futuristic descendant of the original design family.
Started a stealth, no armor run. Dogmeat only. Pretty fun so far. Feelin' like a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. today.

>>123275837
It's supposed to heal you, but not remove rads. So you'll be affected by rads as normal. Whatever healing rate it gives you doesn't keep pace with the radiation damage. It's pretty useless.
>>123275765
Reflex sights exist, y'know. Plus you're already spending the nuclear material on literally mid-2000s scoping.
>>123275665
Considering how many unlicensed AK clones are produced, I doubt whoever holds the fucking patent ist going to care if the gun is used in a fucking game.

>>123275665
i dont think a russian weapon manufacturer cares that someone puts an AK in a game. AK's are everywhere in the world and in nearly every fps. the tommy gun is also pretty damn close to the real thing. well, what about the deliverer? thats a walther ppk, did they get permission from walther? hell no.
point being this: the chinese assault rifle = ak but not by name and exact design so theres no copyright infringement or patent violation. ffs its a alternate history vidya. dafuq bethesdaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
