The mojave is a desert, anon. An empty fucking DESERT. The laziest design choice possible for making open-world anything.
>>317874036
What did you expect from a post-nuclear desert?
>>317872357
Real question is why would you go in there willingly without hacking them apart.
And don't give me that "she wants to be raped", she's obviously intending to slay the beast.
>>317874036
As opposed to DC, which had way more potential than fucking Clark county, NV, but ended up as an even more empty desert (for some reason)?
>>317872357
omg i can see her vagoo ( /)u(\ )
>>317874573
thats the point he was making
>>317874595
No, as opposed to Boston which is huge and detailed. OP actually cherrypicked troll images instead of showing what the full map actually looks like... though I don't blame him if he actually looked because I couldn't find the full map myself. This is just a section of the full map. There's even areas that are outside the borders of it to explore.
>>317872589
Map extends south and west past the border. Loads of areas in the glowing sea past the borders on the pipboy.

>>317872193
New Vegas' map was literal shit and the blandest Fallout map to date. What are you talking about, nigger?
>>317876116
I usually have no less than 25 cores at a time, and I almost never leave my armor.

>>317875605
All they did was mark the map borders smaller than they actually were. I don't understand the purpose of doing this though, it only gives the illusion that the map is smaller than it is.
Red = empty, unused area.
Square = only "city" like area.
>some glitch in the game made me go night vision mode everywhere
>I played with brightness everywhere because of some stupid game glitch
>>317876461
still ia does more dmg/s with a semi-auto combat rifle
>>317876116
I found 4 fusion cores in a random ammo box when I was level 9. Then a fifth randomly spawned laying on the floor of the exact same place when I came back a few hours later.
Fusion cores aren't that big of a deal, especially if you have the scrounger perk.
>>317872357If this was a real place I'd go in naked and lie on the floor
i dont have many problems with fallout 4's map
people need to realize that big map doesnt automatically make it good, its map quality that matters
what i dont like is the lack of traders early on, and the lack of non-settlement cities and towns
>>317876852
that's a kind gay things to say
Boston was actually done very well. The only issue is that when you get into the city, it seems a little too dense in the sense that one street is occupied by raiders, and then not even half a block away, there's a gunner outpost, and immediately around the corner there's super mutants buttfucking each other.
>>317876116
I'm playing on legendary, and decided my 25 cores along with the rank 3 physicist perk was enough to just start using power armor full times.
I now have 82 fusion cores.
>>317876925
exactly thats why nv map is better
>>317872357
Unless the plan is to get raped to death, she should have brought a full set of armor.
What's with the fact that fucking EVERYTHING drops and uses a god damn pipe weapon? Holy shit, can I have some variety please?
>>317876735
There's probably a console command to disable nightvision, look around.
Lot's of dumb bugs, but some of them can be worked around with via the ~ console. Would hate to be playign on xbone or ps4 with what I assume are the same bugs.
>>317876118
>Deathclaw
>worse than Legendary Albino Rad Scorpion that can deal poison damage that ticks astronomical damage even through power armor at level 50
Nah.
F4 actually has more locations than NV, and this is coming from someone who prefers NV by a long shot.

>>317877118
REAL TALK
>>317877094
I posted earlier and someone suggest I was using nightvision, funny enough I googled it and managed to fix it via console.
it felt weird having the game looking like this now, because I had been playing with brightness everywhere for so long I got used to it
>>317876492
I think it's to give you a sense of exploring uncharted territory.
>get a combat rifle
>mod it
>oneshotting everything
what a great fun game, im playing on survival difficulty
Anyone else hate those stupid little wasp enemies that are almost impossible to hit without using VATS? I think they were called Stingwings or something. I really fucking hate those things.
>>317877569
I hit them a bat
>>317877361

>>317877613
Not such a viable option when your strength is 2.
>>317877569
Heard you talking shit like I wouldn't find out.
>>317877697
Yeah, but on the plus side, this makes it even easier for modders to make new areas outside of the map.
>>317877465
Once I got a combat rifle I just stopped carrying other guns. I want to use plasma guns but I can't ever find any ammo for them.
>>317877758
ohgodplzno
>>317876118
Fallout 4 suffers a lot from borderlands syndrome with the let's increase levels and then inflate those attack/HP/resists stats a bit.
The dumb part is that the armor doesn't do much if you picked rifle since you'll probably have 30%+30% armor penetration or some shit at high levels making rifles just much better than other weapons.
On vanilla NV they at least kept some sort of semblance to a working weapon system: Armor did flat damage reduction, guns that used the same ammo generally dealt similar damage. That way shotguns and SMGs were good at mowing down zom-feral ghouls, cazadors and random animals while high caliber rifles would punch through high DT armor and be able to deal damage through say an opponent with power armor while shotguns and smg would just bounce off it.
Energy weapons were made better as well on a later patch when they were given inherit ignores portion of DT on a later patch.
On Fallout 4 we're back to old armor again, with the retarded lmao upgrading chamber somehow makes the ammo more lethal, where using certain weapons was an absolute fucking waste of ammo. Like for example .45s in SMGs when Combat Rifles used those as well and dealt 3x damage per shot or .308s on revolver or bolt pipes when hunting rifle straight up did more. It's fucking dumb.
>>317877862
it's fucking stupid, before i thought fo4 is a shooter game, now I KNOW it's just a shooter game
get into combat every 10 seconds and just mass murder everything without even trying

>no corpse, no caps

>>317877970
The worse part is that most guns aren't worth using. For example I'd expect that a shotgun should be great against the bug enemies, or the mirelurk babbys, but I'm better off rolling deep with the semi-auto combat rifle chambered in .45 for literally everything.
Armor piercing rounds aren't even worth using. All they had to do was copy STALKER in how to handle the different ammo types holy fuck.
>>317876492
It could be a fun way to fuck with player expectations.
>>317876685
i thought it was a shirt by the thumbnail
>>317876958I'm a grill :3No I'm not
>>317878782
I hope future DLC will actually expand the map further outward rather than just adding in smaller, separate open worlds.
>>317878782
wow that's really linear. There's also that [Cleared] message that appears on a location if you killed everything in there like Skyrim with the dungeons and caves. It's literally Skyrim with guns.
>>317879425
Fo3 was Oblivion with guns, I don't know why you're surprised by this.
>>317877221
Got the same thing ese. Looking for a fix.
>>317879425
>It says "cleared"
>go back refilled with generic enemies
Why Bethesdarr?
>>317878782
Thank god there's a perk that allows you to breathe and not take radiation damage whilst in the water, otherwise people would bitch how it covers a good portion of the map.
I like the Mojave because it feels like an actual place. There's a logic behind where everything is and settlements, of various sizes, are found along trade routes. I like that.
I have the capacity to like stuff like FO3, and maybe 4 I have no idea what that map is like, where it's a disconnected, disjointed series of setpieces that you discover by wandering around.
For the purposes of serious storytelling and role playing, I enjoy the former infinitely more, but there are limitations to that writing and design philosophy that don't allow for the super cool or interesting modules of entertainment that the latter is conducive to.
I am really sick of NV posting lately. I love NV, but I am really tired of all the intentionally inflammatory threads.

>>317874397
But the bombs never dropped in Vegas, anon
>>317879807
Except that perk is useless since there are no locations underwater. They rushed the game and scrapped any underwater points of interests.
Pic related, it's a beta harpoon weapon.
>>317872193
I forgot how fucking small the NV map was.
All that unplaceable space.
FO4 actually has a few decent sized city areas, plus the main city.
>>317880578
House's defense system didn't get all of them. He got most of them. I think he missed like 6. He says that if the platinum chip had made it to him to upgrade his shit, he probably could have gotten all of them.
>>317877007
Yeah but they fight each other all the time. Love seeing well-equipped groups of raiders get swarmed by ghouls. Especially if some raiders have power armor or a fat man.

>>317881374

>>317876116
Once the power core gets under 10% or less just switch it out and then sell the used one, it's the same price as a 100% core.
>>317879776
Because there's no level cap. This way autists can level forever.
>>317880814
There are some underwater quests, like one that involves a sea monster. And there's also sunken ships and crashed planes that have interesting and valuable shit scattered about.
Some full-fledged underwater locations would be pretty cool. Especially if they took advantage of the power armor deep water walking.
>>317881789
yeah its level 237
>that moment in F4 when you can walk off the map
t-thanks todd
Daily reminder they left a great looking high poly Chinese Assault Rifle in the game but didn't finish it, most likely to include as DLC. it's named assault rifle in the files and the current assault rifle is named "Machine Gun" which makes sense considering how it looks.
>>317882056
there s a single submarine underwater
>>317878587
god i love this thing
> you love your legs ?
TO BAD FUCK YOU
>>317878106
The only right choice.
>>317872193
To be honest family most of the locations in Fallout New Vegas were shit
>>317877263
YEAH HOE
>>317882428
There are suits of power armor underwater. They could do a lot more, but don't pretend it's barren either.
>>317882584
There's also a boat filled with cat pictures.
>>317882498
The only really bad ones I can think of are the deserts and some of the office buildings. Fallout 4 has a lot more pointless filler dungeons than New Vegas had.
so what's the verdict on Fallout 4? is it a kusoge, or is it an OK game as long as I pretend it's not wearing the "Fallout" trademark?
>>317882413
>that fucking finger through the grip
I know it's unfinished, but I wouldn't be surprised if they slapped a texture on this exact rigged model and sold it as is.
>>317882413
>left files in the game to add as DLC
are you fucking dumb? They cant pull that console shit when they release the game on PC with the intention of letting people sift the files and mod whatever they want.Use your head anon. They just ran out of time and slashed it. The game was clearly rushed
>>317882878
The model by default was like, sideways in the hands. I had to edit the model to make it fit, and make a new entry. The only thing in the game files is the model with messed up positions. "Fixed" the rest myself.
>>317882413
I noticed in the opening cinematic the MC uses an AK47 looking gun that doesnt even appear ingame, even with weapon mods.
>>317882968
I would agree with you, except the machinegun being renamed to Assault Rifle, and the Chinese one being named Assault Rifle. They also had animations linked to it that aren't in the game's files.
Mark my words anon, it'll be in DLC.
>>317882851
It's a good game. Not perfect, but definitely worth playing. Especially if you're on PC when the mods start fixing the most glaring issues, and add more equipment.
>>317877047
How does someone get raped to death?
>>317882878
There's clipping everywhere, I'm pretty sure they don't even bother with fixing clipping issues unless it's really bad
>>317882996
Ahh okay.
But still good job on discovering their DLC plans. On a team of their size and quality, it shouldn't take more than a week to make that model in a functioning manner. And that's with like 1 guy working on it, maybe 2 if you split the modeling/texturing away from animators. Bethesda, deliverers of horse armor, have truly shown us the future of DLC. And it is dark.
>>317881456
I think it's some section from Fallout 1.
>>317882996
nice find and work anon
>>317883206
Massive blunt trauma and blood loss.
You can download the hacked together weapon (basically just a clone of the Combat Rifle with a different model) if you'd like to fuck around with it here: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/2455/
>>317883293
I also made Settlement Supplies Expanded that adds more settlement objects, which is almost for sure another one of their DLC plans considering how easy it is to add things.
>>317883343
Thx anon.
>>317883171
maybe
either way PC will get it for free sooner or later
>>317880578
Did you know that Las Vegas is in a desert right this very second? It's even called the Mojave
Glowing sea was the best part of the game
>>317883495
I knew from day one they were going to capitalize on that settlement building meta game. They practically got themselves the Minecraft audience and are in a position of ability to sell new crafting materials to them. It's a gold mine. Until they release mod tools that is.
>>317883495
Oh, shit, it's you. Is it within your capabilities to add any sort of interface for directly reassigning supply routes? I hate having to track down my provisioners, some of which don't even enter the settlement.
>>317882851
It's fun but it has more bugs than the wealthiest hooker in all of Africa.
Not all of them are game-breaking mind you but you're probably gonna see some shit, pic related happened to me earlier today. in the 90 or so hours I've played that type of bug has surfaced 3 times.
Another sweet mod I made recently: I made all weapon muzzle flashes, projectiles, and explosions cast dynamic shadows:
>>317883719
We don't need the mod tools for that.
http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/1145/
>>317883791
Adding any interface period isn't possible right now. Very limited without the GECK.
>>317883978
daaaamn that's nice, does that include lasers?
>>317875605
Eh, it actually is just a small area to the southeast where you can travel a bit outside of it. They might as well have showed an expanded border on that area on the map, you still have borders that say "you can't go that way!"
>>317880442
Not inherently bad. But The city really lacks.
Let's face it, Fallout 4 has the best map. We can only hope there's a spin off to improve on it. I just love the whole verticality they created for the map. I want this to be standard from now on.
>>317884091
It should, haven't tested it much yet. If it doesn't, I can add/fix it.
>>317883978
I figured as much. Still, is there really no way to remotely manage that bullshit? It baffles me that there's next to no options for getting shit done from afar.
To this?
>>317884195
that mods going on my list, you got a link to it?
>>317884173
I want Obsidian to make another Fallout because the samey dialogue in 4 is pathetic even for bethesda, but I just know they're gonna make another subpar map.
Why can't they just work together, god.
>>317884173
>verticality
Oh man that's really such a big difference. So many fights now across multiple v levels, both outside and indoors really spices things up.
>>317877970
I miss guns just being one skill. My handguns are underpowered as fuck compared to shotguns since I've only focuses on the single shot rifle perks. It worked better in NV where I had an entire arsenal I could pick up and use depending on situation. Of course I could just replay it, way more fun than 4.
>>317884332
Say goodbye to your framerate.
http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/2571/
Working now on a mod that makes all light sources cast dynamic shadows.

But seriously, you would expect a desert to be empty. DC, not so much.
>>317883084
>>317884463
Bet there will be DLC involving the memory den and pre-war battles.
>>317882851
It's a good Fallout game, but again the bugs can sometimes be almost unbearable if you ever come across any. Enough content to last you a very long time, but you're guaranteed to download a couple of mods for certain things Bethesda never learned to fix.
>>317882851
Fun but story and dialogue is complete trash, and the gameplay has these gaping holes that make you think "why the hell didn't they just include this/do it this way". Also terrible level scaling and random enchanted loot instead of actually interesting unique gear.
6/10, you'll be entertained and mods will certainly make it a lot better, but the base game should have been so so much better.
>>317875034
Too bad none of them are very interesting.
And New Vegas really wasn't just desert, at all.
>>317884450
Bro without some kind of LOD system in place for the number of shadow map casting light sources, the game is going to crumble into single digits even on a i7 6700k 5Ghz and GTX Titan X SLI system. It's an engine problem and they know it. If they could realistically make every light cast dynamic shadows, they would. It's not even a matter of artistic direction, it just looks better.

>>317872684

>>317884792
I haven't played FO3 in many years, but I don't recall a lot of emptiness in it. I was hyped for New Vegas since the first trailer came out and dropped the game a week later after release. I can only take so much barren nothingness for so long before I toss it into the trash.
>>317876838

>>317884314
>>317884476
Just imagine if they made WoW true to scale of the actual size of Azeroth.
Walking across the barrens would take at least 5 days of real life time.
>>317879425
do you even know what linear means? this is the most nonlinear map in fallout. theres no huge fucking cliffs blocking off anything, you can walk from corner to corner of the map
To this
>>317885526
I seriously don't understand how people can call New Vegas empty. it had some big stretches of walking, but Skyrim had much larger stretches of nothing and noone complained about that. New Vegas didn't feel empty at all.

>>317885971
>I seriously don't understand how people can call New Vegas empty. it had some big stretches of walking, but Skyrim had much larger stretches of nothing and noone complained about that. New Vegas didn't feel empty at all.
Because they're used to Beth games where you can go anywhere, then presented with elements that restrict them they don't feel free.
Most non-locations are at the edges of the map, the road to vegas has so many important locations on the way.

Then we lost the titans...
>>317888364
No wait, I guess it's a Fallout Tactics mod, because there are Fallout 1/2 art assets in there for no reason. Definitely not vanilla Tactics, but the vast majority of it is Tactics.
>>317887557
Carey Mulligan? Not exactly a titty monster, but she's pretty cute.
>>317878307
Great shot!return to base immediately
Anyone else hate how cluttered with icons the map in Fallout 4 is? I'm regularly forced to zoom in because there are named location within 5 feet of each other all over the map.
>>317886892
I kind of assumed it was the game, with it being buggy and the one recent game that shit's happened in.
With that said, I'll look into it.
>>317877361
i'll give you a sense of explored uncharted territory
Does this still have that level scaling garbage from the earlier games?
>>317886224
Actually Bethesda has taken a hint from Obsidian (or really themselves since they did it before) and have high level areas instead of everything being scaled to you. It scales in ranges like New Vegas.
>>317878541
>get to level 15ish
>start being able to punch them to death
Unarmed characters are fucking awesome.
I don't know what the fuck this game is doing, but whenever I exit or alt-tab out, all the white areas and white text on my monitor has this reddish tint. It's worrying and infuriating
>>317886074
but sometimes they don't explode
>>317888981
Yes and no. There are zones in which enemies scale within a preset range. That being said, you kill one of the strongest enemies in the game as part of the first quest and no one really acknowledges the gravity of the situation.
>>317876852
You're so brave

>>317872283

>>317888981
So my game runs EXTREMELY laggy, even on the lowest settings. I can generally run just about everything on a decent graphics level, usually close to maxed out. Maybe drop the shadows and lighting and whatnot.
But this game is near unplayable with its laggy choppiness. I even applied the V-sync fixes and whatnot from Nexus. I'm not sure what the issue is.

i find it being used by BoS people and everyone sells it
>>317891827
Never really cared for power armor in previous Fallout games, but it's great in this one. Definitely one of the best things in the game.
>>317892097
You should start seeing them around level 40. The BoS are guaranteed to sell them.

What are you talking about freeside and the strip were dead and disappointing as fuck.
How do I look as operator as possible? I'm having a really hard time finding good looking armor
>>317891827
god damn I can't wait for model mods so I can change that ugly T-51 helmet back to normal
>>317892456
You'll find heavy combat armor eventually, should look pretty operator if you get it in shadowed.
>>317892581
It really annoys me how there's no real carbine looking sort of rifle too. I'm trying to keep my loadout to a suppressed pistol, assault rifle and sniper rifle.
>>317892361
The portions of the game that they got to are pretty awesome though anon. It's really easy to tell what things still needed polish, such as the BOS. The options in speech narrow, the quests get simpler, and stuff feels more disjointed.
For example Westside. The game never really connects you well to westside, you kinda just wander over there eventually and its mostly forgetable. If you look at the map outside, it looked like they were going to design westside to take up much more space and really going to make it into a quest hub.
To this?
>>317892361
I'm glad Bethesda rushed New Vegas a year before it was finished and gave them gamebryo
Is anyone else annoyed how when you put a companion in power armor, you can't take it back but only do so via trade? I've accidentally made them hostile by "stealing" them so many times
>>317878782
Why does every such game have impassable fences/mountain ranges/YOU CANT GO THERE HURR INVISIBLE WALL as a map border? It could just have an exponentially increasing difficulty gradient past the areas you're intended to visit. So if you wanted to leave the map, you'd have to go through a wasteland fighting increasingly overly difficult enemies and facing insane levels of radiation. Making a kilometer or two of nothing but empty wasteland with no points of interest and shit that rapes youpast which the game would instakill you for obviously using tgmwould be a much better design and a much better way to force the player to stay on the map.
>>317892921
>Bethesda rushed New Vegas
They didn't rush anything their deadline was in their contract and they had everything from Fallout 3 to work with.
>>317885526
>>317885971

New Vegas isn't empty. There's just one major issue with it.
What's DC after the apocalypse? A barren wasteland covered in hints of humanity once existing there.
What's a desert after the apocalypse? After an apocalypse where not even a single bomb landed in the immediate area?
Still a fucking desert.

this is something that upsets me about modern "grafixxx"

>>317892989

It's not about building the game yourself piece by piece, I find the game most interesting when you are just guiding the world building aspect. Help this faction with this town and it improves, harm the faction and the town suffers kind of things.

Probably never gonna happen with how hard they push GRAFIX, unless they compromise in some area of visuals, or actually fucking optimize their games for once. If they don't do either of those consoles won't be able to keep up. And it doesn't matter how steep the diminishing returns on graphical improvements get, most people just want pretty pictures, not actual interactivity.

Nope, still don't believe it. First thing I did in game was head south, and the enemies only stopped using pipes and raider leathers after I was level 20.

and plebs (I actually heard a 23 year old veteran gamer suggest this) thought there were going to be interesting shit to find out in the water since it took up so much the map. New Vegas had one decent sized lake in it, and it had 3-4 locations with it.
>>317895650
Just had a thought. I bet they're going to release DLC that's just Bioshock in the Wasteland. Underwater "advanced" settlements. That's why there's nothing yet.
Or it's just Bethesda being faggots releasing rushed games as usual.

Are melee/unarmed builds even worth it? Everything seems like guns guns guns GUNS
>>317896469
There's some decent perks and Power Armor mods that make melee viable, though still not nearly as good as guns.
>>317896469
There was another thread a while ago where general consensus was that melee is better than it's ever been, but Unarmed is such hot garbage you'd better stay away.
Can't remember specifics, though.
>>317896469
I've literally only found a single power fist despite being level 34. It was a unique from Swan. Don't torture yourself by trying to go unarmed, Bethesda obviously doesn't want you to.
>>317892989
that's stupid as fuck dumb guy
>>317888981
As far as I can tell enemy level is mostly tied to location. I'm not sure about loot.

>>317896469
Melee is lacking weapons on every tier, but has a single overpowered perk (blitz)
Unarmed doesn't even exist
>>317872193
to this?
>>317896469
Both got really screwed by the Legendary system.
If you find a legendary pipe pistol, you can make it into a rifle, an automatic, a sniper, whatever fits your build.
If you find a legendary board it's useless.
And then there's unarmed, which only has 4 weapons, so your chances of stumbling upon an unarmed weapon with a good legendary effect are hilariously low.
Playing unarmed basically means rushing either the deathclaw gauntlet from the quest or the power fist from Swan.

I've run out of areas to explore in the game.
There weren't many interesting terminals or backstories. A lot of it pre-war fluff that tells me very little. Usually there's only 1 terminal that even has stuff on it.
Also disappointing to clear a place and pick a Master safe only to find a pipe rifle and some ammo.
Total time clocked: 60 hours.
Keep in mind I didn't build a settlement because of the infuriating UI. May go back later.

Yeah most of it is as interesting as the shitload of meaningless books found in Skyrim. I'm not sure if it's because I've grown jaded but I don't remember reading terminals to be this boring in NV. Maybe I should replay it one of these days to see how it holds up.

Yeah, but FO4 still isn't that great. All those locations, and yet not one of them is interesting. At least in New Vegas when you went exploring you found unique or powerful weapons. In FO4 you can find pipe pistol, marksman's pipe pistol, heavy pipe pistol, light pipe pistol. Seriously, there is no reason to even explore in FO4 because you don't find any notable shit. New Vegas was infinitely better. 98% of the guns in FO4 are just variations of a base gun that you could have crafted yourself. It's bullshit.
>>317902352
Not to mention that all pipe pistols are utter shit.
>>317902352
And 98% of the guns you find in New Vegas are just base guns. FO4 if anything has more unique weapons because of legendary drops.
>>317902469
Yeah, no kidding, there's like 5 different guns in this game and everyone just drops variations of them. Even when you go fight high level enemies they still drop shit like "short hunting rifle." I had fun with the missions, but once I finished a lot of them...I just had no urge to explore like I did in New Vegas. The weapons in this game are whack as fuck.

>>317902793
why not both?
>>317882851
Dialogue and plot are absolute trash, even less of a RPG than Skyrim, competent shooting mechanics, exploration is ruined by leveled loot, the borderlands-esque legendary system is pants-on-head retarded. Shallow is probably the best word to describe this game.
>>317902891
Obviously both would be better but it's clear the game was released a little early and they only had so much time. So between the two I'm glad we got more function over aesthetics.

Nothing matters. There's no context to anything. Everything is just wanton, unnecessary violence against soulless targets with no reason to be wherever they are.
Why did I have to kill Kellogg?
Why did I have to kill the courser? And how does everybody know what a courser is all of a sudden?

Problem with the books is there's not really a way to make people pick and chose which perks they get, they just end up with everything if they find the books. That kind of shit bugs me in games, I'd rather have a lot of options and be limited instead of eventually being able to get everything.

because he is a merc who at that point was cut of from the institute, you did figure at least that out right? the kid (its not shaun its a synth) was made as a lure to lead you to the institute and to get rid of Special-K in the process, for fucks sake anon, Kellogs says that himself in his memory section
>Why did I have to kill the courser? And how does everybody know what a courser is all of a sudden?
Because a courses has a device in him that allows him to use the institute teleporter and you want to teleport into the institute, for fucks sake they spell it out for you
and only people who directly deal with the institute knew what a courses is, so the Railroad and Virgil
Why was the retaking of "THE CASTLE" just pest control?
Because the minuteman fell apart due to inner strife and bickering, not some outside force, so the castle wasnt lost in battle, it was just abandoned and the mirelurks moved in
Why were super mutants fucking up the water supply for the nice robot lady?
They were not doing it on purpose they are just fucking dirty scum that had giant pieces of humans lying around

He was more talking about the way that a lot of mountains have artificial boundaries when you should be able to climb up their geometry. See the comment about sight lines? The map would probably feel absolutely tiny if you got high enough in the right positions. It's why people talk about GTA5 feeling smaller than SA, SA restricted your sight a lot more.
>>317904765
That would be awesome but I would feel like an asshole the whole time preventing their escape. The game would have a horror twist, but I would be the monster.

Spot on. The game's got problems but the things people choose to bitch about don't make any sense.
>>317904513
I've done it. I didn't go to Diamond City until level 15. If the enemies don't scale, I should expect to see enemies using combat rifles and metal armor at level 1, but I don't. The enemies only stopped using pipe guns and leather way after level 20. Without seeing objective numbers, I cannot believe enemy levels are fixed to area.

Anon, the rifle used by the US army in 1-NV has always been the same and looks almost the same as the real weapon he mentioned. It is also not in the game, being replaced by the retarded 1918 machine gun.
>>317905031
>i hope we get a kellogg dlc
most likely because the base game never went anywhere with special k's brief possession of NickV
>>317905064
yep, the map is much better then previously, at the very least because there is now a lot of vertical movement, you dont feel like an ant running on a sheet of paper, I mean come on the corvega plant - the very first location you go to has a huge roof with ladders, extra rooms and shit all over the place, running around there and having a long firefight (starting on survival made the early game pretty hard, especially since I did not know back then that the game has a cover system) was actually, geniunely fun, too few games let you move on the vertical axis
people also legit make things up to shit on the game, like claiming that you cant sort things in the UI. or that you no longer can drag people and objects around
>>317884635
>desert is too desert-like
I have do not have an image appropriate for this level of autism
>>317905171
there is partial scaling, some locations have fixed level ranges, so for example the very first location - lexington will always have low level enemies, while the glowing sea does scale, but only to a limited extend meaning that the enemies will outlevel you
basically its something like this:
location X - all fixed level (mostly places around sanctuary)
location Y - a range something like 10-20 levels, the actual level within that range depends on yours but if you are say level 5, the lowest the enemies can go is 10 so they are still higher level then you even if they scale
>>317872283
they didnt even develope it
>>317883495
>>317883978
I have to ask, anon. How does it feel knowing that you're playing into Bethesda's hands by finishing their deliberately unfinished game for them? Those dynamic shadows look great, it's a shame they're wasted on the steaming shitpile that is Fallout 4.
I mean, it's obvious that they're going to start selling settlement items, armor, and weapons in 2016. The EULA specifies that only mods that use existing game materials must be distributed for free, everything else is presumably free game when they roll out paid mods in 2016.Mark it.
>>317905649
So do they only level in health, and equipment is entirely scaled? I could believe that; I'd never notice since pipe guns don't ever do enough damage to hurt you and take forever to kill any enemy regardless of level.
>be level 18
>wander into army training camp armory
>exit later
>legendary sentry bot lv38
BEEPY NO AAAAAAAAA
>>317905887
I think so, I really doubt that the fuckers have any kind of perks or whatever, so the thing that scales the most is definetely the equipment, though armour is limited by their type, which is why you see raiders have freaking fat man but still wearing crappy raider armour
I think thats also how skyrim handles some enemies because for example spiders had a max level of like 10 or something but elder vampires had a range of something like >25, so they would kill a lvl 1 character in one hit
keep in mind I might be badly/mistakenly remembering the actual level values but hopefully it gets the point across
>>317904889
Denser, yeah, and definitely in improvement upon 3; but it has the same problem where locations seem to be distributed randomly, and don't seem to be cohesive in the slightest. Of course, part of that could be down to how few towns there are in favour of
>YOU build it YOURSELF!
>>317905887
equip is scaled. in a kind of random manner. by equips I mean armor they drop. the guns will pretty much always be same, except theyll magically do more damage to you cause the enemy is higher level and then still be shit when you go to pick them up.
there's like multiple variants of leather armor depending on level.
>have fucking 140 armor or some shit and 180 hp

should've added a leviathan monster that swallows you when you go beyond the bounds.
They even talked about a monster that destroyed the castle originally, waste of an opportunity.
>>317877697
They really should have put up some ultra-dense radiation that kills you if you go too deep in it instead of those stupid invisible walls. like the glowing sea times 1000. or have some mutated shrak come eat you if you try swimming too far
>>317906969
>They even talked about a monster that destroyed the castle originally, waste of an opportunity.
Mirelurk Queen.
>>317906745
Just wait for the DLC to start rolling in, you're gonna have to pay to unlock the rest of the map or something.
DESU SENPAI THEY FUCKED UP 4 IN A LOT OF WAYS
crafting and settlements suck a lot
>>317906972
They did that in fallout 3 to force you to endure little lamplight, but radiation that """kills you instantly""" is very easy to pass if you radx and just keep opening the inventory to radaway
>>317886887
The only reason that looks bad is because there's no atmospheric lighting based off of the things light hits, so everything is either lit or unlit by a source. Light isn't just jagged ellipses, if they made it more smooth and added reflection and ambient lighting then it would look great, unfortunately it's not necessarily worth the resources compared to just making the lighting static.
>>317907005
Mirelurk Queens aren't even that strong, they go down fast it's just that acid that hurts. It's retarded that they expect you to believe a Mirelurk Queen destroyed a heavily manned and fortified castle. If it were an Legendary Albino Mirelurk Queen on the other hand.
>>317902352
That's horseshit. Most locations I've run into have had at least one legendary in them, and turning a legendary pistol into something like a sniper with the same legendary stat is a better feeling that anything I've gotten from FO3 or NV.
>>317885072
a lot of games have "wow epic landmass", but EVE actually has unique regions, with laws that are imposed by the unique set of rules, social norms and the economy.
if you think EVE is just a game for autists you might be right (i'm self proclaimed) but it's seriously the most vivid environment you're likely to explore.
>>317902984
>Why did I have to kill Kellogg?
Bad narrative
They assumed all players would be out for blood or rather that be a parent would hit rage mode facing their son's kidnapper
>Why did I have to kill the courser?
Virgil explains you needed the chip to find the signal to get into the institute and made it pretty clear that the Synth not just going to give it to you. And if you talk to the courser he confirms this and states you'll have to kill him for the chip.
>And how does everybody know what a courser is all of a sudden?
Brotherhood had years of Intel on the area
Railroad has a former one in their fold
No idea how the MMs knew
>Why was the retaking of "THE CASTLE" just pest control?
Beth really sucks at making epic/good battles.
>Why were super mutants fucking up the water supply for the nice robot lady?
they were squatters ruining things by just being there.
>What the fuck are the Forgers even doing?
A terminal makes it out that the leader was the short stick of another raider group and left making his own group, found the building and made his gang. As to why they treated it like a cult I have no fucking clue.

Why does it seem like they target historical places, only to just make them underwhelming? DC in Fallout 3 was unbearably bad. It was outright garbage. The only fun parts were the raider camps and the final mission with Liberty Prime.

If you pass certain speech checks with him and Doctor Li and get the tape from the kid after father passes it makes a clear picture
Short of it is he really wishes he could have had a normal up bring with his parents and regretted what happen to the MC being robbed of having any real experiences with a growing child.
His original goal was to make a real growing synth that he could just let you rescue and watch though it's eyes what kind of life he could have had with you.

In game? No. But that's how he is suppose to work.
That said it's never made clear if he is working right/will aged as plan.
I lean towards no if you took Li away from the institute since that was her entire job there was to make him work like that.
>>317908708
Fallout 3 really felt like they just to the ES formula
>>317908438
It's also worth noting that's why Kellogg was baby sitting the boy synth, Father's big plan was to have his parent chase down and kill Kellogg and free the kid. But a mix of Virgil fleeing, the Railroad uprising and the fact that the board was much like the Anon here and did not feel comfortable making a living growing Synth of their founder with no clear reason (he withheld to them why he wanted it made)

>>317909616
Well I don't really hate what Obsidian did with the DLCS, Using them for backstory. I guess Bethesda didn't want them putting out a dlc of content that would have been in the base game if they had enough time.
It's a shame though you don't have a dlc where you're in tuscon or where the legion place is for at least part of it. You do meet Ulysses, who was supposed to be the Legions companion in the base game before cuts.
Fallout shelter had characters in ninja suits, medieval armor, football uniforms, and wrestler outfits. Where were they in Fallout 4?
>>317878782
Boston was scaled down immensely. I know it's necessary but in game it takes like 20-30 seconds of running to get from Malden to Medford whereas in real life it's like a 3-5 minute drive at min depending on traffic.

I really want a MMO with a huge as fuck world, but quite a bit of it is the sea. And so you make a boat and at first things are fine, but then you encounter sea monsters which are stupidly overlevelled past the cap and instead of fighting them, you're trying to get through them to see the other islands.
And so players must work together to try and aggro the sea monsters just so one person can slip through to see what the fuck is on the other islands.
