My mishmash of raider power armor and unique power armor, wish there were a left leg and right arm unique so I dont feel SO FUCKING UNBALANCED
AND WHY THE FUCK CANT I PAINT RAIDER POWER ARMOR

But I like them both.
>>124096742
You can like both but you can only love one.

Am I being trolled? is /fog/ LITERALLY trolling me?
Why is Curie never mentioned in all the waifu discussions? She's literally perfect, super cute, extremely innocent, says stuff that makes your heart melt, and her accent is absolutely gorgeous.
She also created a cure for every virus known to mankind
Threadly reminder to enjoy all Noraposts and reply to all Noraposters
>>124096792
As a matter of fact I love them both every night. Sanctuary echoes with the lesbian threeways happening in my shack.
reminder that "the writing is shit" = "I dont have any valid criticism against the game but feel like talking shit cause beth made it"
>not waiting for page 8-10 to make a new thread
>>124096195
>as people associated discover it and either lie to themselves or set about trying to make things right
That's actually exactly what happens. Ayo is a good example of the former, andLiamis a good example of the latter.Liam's fatheris an interesting example of the latter- He unabashedly believes synths are conscious, sentient and sapient, buthe doesn't want them to be free because he thinks they will suffer more in the wasteland than in the Institute.
>Though naturally I expect Bethesda to screw up any such explorations.
My entire run of FO4 was mostly just this, continually expecting Bethesda to fuck up and being pleasantly surprised when they didn't about 90% of the time.The dialogue is always laughably bad though.
Where my minutemen bros at
>>124097025
Minimum amount of sneaking. Blitz is my target.
>>124096635
Curie dislikes drugs because she knows the physical and mental side effects that come with continuous use.
Strong dislikes them because you're using them to make you more powerful and aren't using the milk of human kindness instead.
Piper dislikes it and hates addiction because seeing her only friend and her true love deteriorate physically and mentally to the drug usage scares and upsets her.
Cait loves it because she knows what it's like to do them and how it makes you feel, but then hates you doing it after you white knight her because that machine didn't cure her mental addiction to the drugs, it only flushed it out of her system so she didn't have any physical withdrawals.
>>124097058
>She also created a cure for every virus known to mankind
I have a question about that. It was revealed Father is dying to the common cold, and the vial Curie gives you can cure any virus in the world. How come there was no option to just give that vial to Father and cure him?

Bethesda literally wrote it out of their asses. "Hey this kid is sick, good thing there's a hole in the wall nearby and inside there's a cure to every disease known to man!"
What were they thinking
>>124097173

What
>>124096809
I don't care, Nate was just a beard anyway.
>>124097308
I want to take bloody mess and love wanderer, towards melee damage and blitz. Everything else into endurance probably.
>>124097058
She's worse at stealth than Strong is, is extremely ditzy and that voice becomes infuriating fast, and she spent 100 years creating a cure without writing down her procedure, something any real scientist would do. She also doesn't come with a default gun with magic ammo once you complete her quest.
I don't hate on her, I fuck her regularly alongside all the rest, but there are reasons not to like her

Best hidden shit in game? I havent found anything coooowl that didnt had a massive sign pointing at it
>>124097282
Hey, neither did I. It's still blown my expectations away though.It has good gameplay, which is actually the most surprising. A few of the Elder Scrolls games have had good writing and they all have good setting, but Bethesda has never been able to do anything but really fucking garbage horrible gameplay. Oblivion's the closest they've come before this and its combat still needed mods to fix it and it had a lot of little annoying gameplay foibles that added up to shitty game feel overall.

Well, you are going to want Rooted (9 str), Blitz (9 agi), Lone Wanderer (3 cha), and Bloody Mess 3 LUC)
Thats... 22 points right there. you start with 21, the SPECIAL book, and bobbleheads.
Its going to be one tight as fuck build, unless you dont care about Rooted's 25/50% melee damage bonus

Daggerfall
Finally got Fallout 4 and have been playing for several hours, and I'm wondering, does anybody else get a strange sort of Gears of War vibe from playing it?
From the way the graphics and the death animations work, to some of the weapons designs, it really feels like I'm playing some sort of weird expansion of GoW.
>>124097456
>Oblivion
>good gameplay
fucker, Skyrim had better gameplay then Oblivion.
And Skyrim had shit gameplay.
>>124097352
Repeatedly take drugs in front of Piper outside of combat. She gets genuinely scared and upset. She tells you to be careful, they'll take you to a bad place, and then when you're addicted she tells you she hates what they are doing to you.
>>124097448

WHY
>>124097641
I will work my way towards Blitz. I don't want to start with it.
>>124097582
Redguard, Morrowind, Oblivion. I'd say Daggerfall but it had a lot of inconsistencies and things that read like a teenage dnd nerd's first serious attempt at writing a short story, which bogged down the better parts unfortunately.I also conveniently forgot Arena, which did not have a good setting, or good anything for that matter, but it wasn't even originally intended to be an rpg from what I've heard.

Alright /fog/, what the fuck is this?
I visited Teagan after becoming Sentinel to check out the cool new shit he had in stock for me. In his mods tab I saw for the first time a spare missile launcher targeting computer, so I snagged that shit right up and went home to install it. It showed up in the workbench as this instead, which was never an option to craft before. Is it just a unique mod? It's not listed in the wiki or anything, but I don't have any mods that add items like this to my game
>>124097058
>>124097198
It was a cure to 60% of all known diseases in 2077, not a cure to all diseases in 2277. Her cure did not take in to account any mutations that happened to diseases after prolonged exposure to radiation over multiple generations.
>>124097820
What about Skyrim?
>>124097448
My favorite is still Mentats and Rad-Away in the trash bin on mutant base.
Small but amusing detail.
>>124097642
>>124097580
>>124097567
I thought for sure Fathers doctor said something along the lines of "We can create synthetic humans yet we can't cure the common cold." as Father announced that he was sick. Where is it mentioned that it's cancer?
Cancer makes a lot more sense, even though I'd thought for sure that was cured in this timeline considering every single human on earth has radiation damage yet there's a fuckton of old people.
>>124097603
Which is why pot is the only thing that legit cures it.
>>124097883
>playing as a man
What a faggot
>>124097815
Here is some copied and pasted advice then:
The Tank, for starting SPECIAL you want Rooted, which is 9 STR. Lone Wanderer, which is 3 CHA. Bloody Mess, which is 3 LUC. Rest is your choosing. Heres the required perks:
Lone Wanderer, no companion besides Dogmeat. Rank 1 offers 15% damage reduction across the board, Rank 2 offers another 15% damage reduction
Toughness, most of the game is Ballistic damage, 10/20/30/40/50 DT is great, unless you plan to always be in Power Armor or join the railroad, then this is not that great.
Armorer. You are going to get shot at a lot when running into melee, Metal Armor provides amazing Ballistic resistance, moreso than combat armor, but combat armor has more energy resist. Once you start polishing metal armor as well as applying Strengthened sub-mods to arm/legs, and Pneumatic to your chest.. it'll be great being melee at all levels. If you have enough END for Adamantium Skeleton you can apply different sub-mods like explosive damage resistance to take missles to the face and laugh at mines.
I am unable to stress at how awesome the Pneumatic mod is for melee characters, sometimes you shrug off a bash/power attack, sometimes the bash/power attack does not do much stagger. Pneumatic is a required chestpiece sub-mod for all levels its available
Blacksmith, for melee mods, etc. Ignore armor piercing mods and bleeding mods, go for the mods with the highest damage increase.
Rooted, this gives you 25/50 DT and 25%/50% melee/unarmed damage standing still and using VATS.
****Warning, third person camera power attacks will move your character canceling out the Rooted perk bonus. VATS and first person are fine.****
Bloody Mess is more damage, plus some giggle moments watching things explode when you club them with a bat.
>>124097820
>Oblivion
>good writing
this has to be a /v/ tier meme
>>124097746
>>124097963
Can either of you actually define "gameplay"?
Is rooted worth it for melee builds? The only difficult things (on survival) are enemies with guns and I'm constantly chasing after their back-pedaling.
If it's a death claw, well then you can't stand and fight it anyway, it'll just throw you on your ass, I usually just pop some jet and keep circling to it's back.

Howdy folks! Glad I caught you!
Do you have time for some questions about Vault-Tec's newest fiction-immersion product, Fallout 4?
Here are the polls for my last questions. Please, only answer once!
>How does the SPECIAL Perks system stack up against the SPECIAL + Skills + Perks system?
http://strawpoll.me/6145212
>How do you feel about the removal of Skill Checks (Speech, Charisma, Guns, etc) and Special Checks (Strength, Perception, etc)?
http://strawpoll.me/6146567
Today, I'd like to ask you a few questions about the story of Fallout 4.
Did you like the storytelling in Fallout 4? Was it engaging to you?
http://strawpoll.me/6160943
Feel free to elaborate in a comment; How did the story compare to others in the Fallout series? If something seemed off, what was it?
Please pick an option closest to your opinion. If you feel as though none of the options suit you, tell me, and I will try to incorporate it into a new poll.
Secondly, how do you feel the change in the way dialogue is handled effected storytelling?
Does the 4-choice dialogue system work for a game like Fallout? Did you feel like it effected the way you engaged in the story?
http://strawpoll.me/6160981
Again, feel free to elaborate in a comment, and let me know if you feel as though none of the answers suit you.
Thank you very much for your time!
>>124098013
His remark about the common cold had nothing to do with Father's problem. That's just a random comment he makes. Father has cancer.

Not a single fucking person from inside will reappear except Madison Li if you BoS'ed her.
No ghouls if you blow it up, no survivors if you evacuate. Just a few commonwealth NPCs mention it. No OC and meetups.
Bravo Bethesda for getting worse than FO3.

There are still SPECIAL and Speech checks. There are various quests that let you bypass fetch steps via INT skill checks.
>>124098073
First poster, but gameplay is all the mechanical systems that one uses to actually play the game.
In regards to Oblivion, its attribute/skill system as complete and utter shit for the same reason Fallout 3 was, it was an action game trying to masquerade as an RPG, and nothing fucking matter because of it.
STR and melee weapon skill damage increases were so small you could go 15+ levels and never notice them, attributes were so poorly calculated the difference between 80 and 100 INT amount to all of two medium level spells.
Skyrim played far better because it stopped pretending it was an RPG, and just went ful on action game.
>>124098408

Good setting still but the writing is all "my thing was taken, go kill these draugrs to get it back!" and "we need to perform this complex ritual, so go kill some draugr to get the thing we need to do it!" and the books are mostly shit that was in previous games while the new ones are just reinforcing the whole "by the way shouting was actually dragon language and the nords were super obsessed with dragons even though that has never been mentioned before now" thing. Then the actual questlines are just terrible, from casting one spell to get into the college and being the most important person there after two quests to the companions revealing they're werewolves and trying to get you to join their furry orgy because you saw Farkas in his underwear.
>>124098061

Skyrim wasn't the same shit, not by a logn shot.
Oblivion's scaling system was so bad, even if you focused on weapon and armor skills, you could STILL reach a point where everything out damaged you and made the game impossible.
In Skyrim, the only way for that to happen is if you focus only on non-combat skill y not playing the fucking game.
Skyrim also introduced far larger ranges for shit like HP/Macgicka/Stamina, and made the forced perks from Oblivion, which made every character the same, into optional perks that allowed for at least SOME character diversity.
Skyrim's gameplay still sucked, but it was MILES better then Oblivion.
If I blow up the Prydwen with the Minutemen will I still get random BoS patrols to fight?
>>124098514
Like it or not, tumblr is where pretty much every artist posts their art nowadays. You either have deviantart or tumblr for art posting, and only weebs and fetishists visit DA anymore. You want art, you go to tumblr. It's as simple as that.The fact that a tumblr filename triggers people is just a bonus.

Uhh no.
todd said shortly after e3 that there was around 50 base weapon

>>124098874
I don't give a shit about that.
I abused magic in both games.
I meant the combat, the dialogue, the motion, the world design.
It's the same shit. And Skyrim's over simplification was a step down.
Not to mention the graphics, which is another case of Oblivion being bad for 2006, but Skyrim coming out in 2011 and looking like something from 2006.
>>124098956

Sanctuary and Red Rocket as well as the far that's nearby. They all have their Defense rating surpassing all resources combined.

Blitz, Reaper, Rockville Slugger (Chao's Revenge for Assaultrons) and you're good to go.
I also like having Moving Target to close in on enemies. There are unique combat armor leg pieces that increase speed by 10% each, which you can mod further to reduce AP usage when sprinting.

No.
You still swing a sword around like a retard swatting bees. There's no difference between a level 5 in one-hand and a level 100, unless you count the damage and the swing speed.
I've replayed both fairly recently and there's almost no difference.
They're both equally shit. But Skyrim came out 5 years later. So it's worse.
New Vegas had more improvements over Fallout 3 than Skyrim did over Oblivion. They practically even had the same landscape.
>>124098956
I sent him to jail because he's a fucking moron.
I get trying to protect non-feral ghouls. But Feral's only act on absolute basic instincts. Fight or light, and eat. That's it.
He's a liability and is endangering all the BoS there. (not that they couldn't handle the ferals, but they're also losing food supplies daily)

Shit, thats what I get for using a shit computer.
At least a replacement isn't far off.
And I have it on my bone, so its not like I can't play it. Just no console which is annoying as nick has disappeared and I can't find him at all.
I still have to play through fallout 3 though.
And I have it and all the dlc on steam, so that will be cool.
>>124099561
>They practically even had the same landscape.
Ok, now I know this is a troll.
>>124099372
Absolutely. The thing about melee is that you either have 0% chance or 95% chance to hit in VATS, so perception is a dump stat. Agility/luck are your bread and butter. I don't even have maxed out strength. You can get plenty of strength bonuses from outfits, power armor, chems, liquor, etc. Sneaking is okay, but I'm usually too impatient for that. Blitz is really key, since it increases your damage immensely. You're gonna want to bounce between enemies like a pinball.
is anyone else already getting bored of fo4?
Can you guys recommend me some fun quests,places to explore,items, anything??

Cyrodiil even had a lot of snow, too. And more interesting monsters.
Shit, I see it now. Oblivion is the better game!

Go to university point, and travel south, eventually you will run into a fridge with a kid trapped inside it saying he is stuck and needs you to open the door.
You find out hes been stuck in there since the war, having been ghoulified by the radiation.
He aks you to take him to his house to see if his parents are still there(they are) and some Gunners try to get you to sell the kid and his family to them so they can sell them as slaves.
You can either sell them, fight the gunners, or lie via a speech check and say the family is gone

>classes>shouldn't really count but modded in parries, better dodge rolls, rebalanced combat that actually makes it play like a knockoff version of a decent ARPG a la Dark Souls and a huge variety of weapon types with distinct movesets
>a shitty leveling system that rewarded choosing skills you wouldn't use much as your primaries and punished using a variety of skills or those you had chosen as your primaries

Skyrim had

>sprinting
>diagonal running animations
>logically armed and armoured enemies
>entirely hack n slash action gameplay with no features more complex than blocking, during which you still receive partial damage and can be easily guard broken with a power attack and staggered, meaning there is no point to ever actually blocking; in other words it's a dps race
>almost no weapon diversity, no moveset diveristy, no moves beyond the tap-tap "combo" and power attacks>still shouldn't count but it's apparently impossible to add fully functioning new weapon classes, or at least nobody has figured it out yet, with the best attempts that have been made being painfully shoddy, while combat mods all still feel like the same vanilla dps race except now your stamina decreases and everyone does more dps; implementation of things like parries are hacky and unreliable at best due to the script engine's incredible slowness, only script dragon mods have any kind of reliable responsiveness
I feel Oblivion's pros heavily outweigh Skyrim's and vice versa for the cons, but hey, opinions, right?

I have a MAJOR fucking problem with the pacing in the game's story
>Given 10mm pistol right off the bat
>given good power armor only a few minutes in
Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it for the most part but a few things should have been expanded upon
First off a standard police issue .38 revolver should have been added to the game as the original gun you get, the absolute lowest tier of gun.
Second Super mutant armor should have been added to the available items that can be attatched to the power armor suits, as of right now super mutant armor is usesless, and to reference my second point you should have been given an arm and a helmet from T-45 power armor at most, having to use super mutant power armor to fill in the gaps until you find some raiders in raider power armor by luck, the fact that by exploring the world for a total of thirty seconds can net you a whole nother suit of nearly complete armor is fucking idiotic and ruins the skill leveling in this game.
TL;DR
>shittier pistol to start with instead of the 10mm
>power armor should have been introduced differently
>power armor levels should have gone
-super mutant
-raider
-t-45
-t-60
-t-51

None of which mattered because the game was an action game and not an RPG.
>more weapon diversity and weapon types
all of which were just slightly better versions of the previous tier weapons that gave you no reason to use anything but daedric.
>>classes
None of which mattered in the slightest and were nothing but labels on the screen since you could raise every skill and attribute to 100, as well as do every guild, regardless of your class.
Basically, all of your pros for Oblivion are cosmetic shit that changed nothing about how the game played and literally amount to MOAR for the sake of MOAR!

I'm guessing you didn't go to the FEV lab. That's like SCP Foundation-tier moral bankruptcy.
Okay, see; the plot makes no sense to me. This would be "my way".
1. Do the first part of the game normally, growing the minutemen; looking for son. The usual.
2. Introduced to your gramps son. Over the next few missions, realize he's trying to white wash your view of the institute, but play it smart. Yes, some synths suffer; but hear me out. Keep contact with minutemen, let them know you're working on something.
3. Son reveals he is of teh dyeins [oh noes!] (Stupid fucking plot point I could see when he was introduced, what the Fuck, todd?), and names you as the next "Father". Okay, right. Son, you're as crazy as that nutjob who kidnapped you. We're bringing the reactor online, but I'm calling in some external help.
3. Bring in the minutemen, effectively lumping the two groups into one. While meanwhile introducing some minutemen into the council, acting as the restraint these scientists desperately need. Give some bs speech about what the institute used to be, the nature of man, and why synth production beyond gen1 is to be (at least, temporarily) halted.
4. Warn the BOS that while we're willing to be allies; that this is our turf, Fuck off. Minutemen with Gen1 synthetic squads, allowing better tactics and knowledge can fight better than TemplarNova(tm) from out of town.
This allows your son to learn a lesson, the above ground to benefit from the institute, and the institute to benefit as well.
>This isn't even an option, what the actual Fuck, todd? It just works, my ass.

I dont mind the pacing desu, if you got the power armor 10 hours in you would still spend most of the game having access to it. More uniques would have made a significiant difference. Also uniques should look unique too...

I liked the skill checks a lot more, probably what I miss most from the older games, it gave the feeling that the main character had more personality because you could respond to things according to the skill set you chose for them. Now it feels rigid and like everything is going to be the same in every playthrough even if my character is a completely different person.
I also think the factions' stories could use a lot of work, I liked that in NV you could see and understand the implications of the choices you made and how it would affect things later on. Currently, everything just feels so inconsequential, but I'm hoping DLC will expand on the factions' stories.

I would rather have a game with 10 guns that let me modify them to do all sort of thing the a game with 100 weapons were all are just incremental stat increases over the previous ones and theres only really like 10 guns you have any reason to use.
both are the same thing in the end. One just makes it more fun by letting you mod those 10 weapons in a variety of ways, rather then not allowing you to do so because they spent all their time making guns that don't mater.

I'm not talking about NOT giving you the PA until ten hours in, just how the game gives you /GOOD/ PA 5 minutes in and how the game allows you to find easily /BETTER/ PA without trouble in about half an hour.
I just don't understand this whole "PA IS SUPER FUCKING NUMEROUS GUYS" shit Bethesda pulled with Fo4, I can understand that the BOS is a literal walking piggy bank of PA but they dont show up until halfway through, and even then they're covered in fucking T-60 the magical "I said it's better because it is even though it's slightly different than T-45-Todd Howard" bullshit power armor

Too bad there's only like six fucking guns in Fallout 4 that have meaningful, distinct upgrades.
90% of them are only increased damage, stability, or range.
Also your argument is shit.
>I would rather quality over quantity
>both are the same in the end

And there is no quality in the guns of Fallout 4. The gunplay is fun, but the dichotomy of firearms and melee weapons is shallow as fuck.
I'd rather have three automatic rifles that look different than one I can 'upgrade'

There isnt much difference in pa's thou, 45 is the cheapest one and the raider armors only exist to handicap them.
60 is barely better than 51 unless someone makes a mod that adds bullshit functions.
The pre-war story doesnt allow any more versions so basically they had to work with these 3.
The x01, however is a good starting point for something new. BOS should have them in very limited numbers so the t-60 would have that "not-the-best" vibe
And ofcourse game should have more advanced armors.

>>124101036
This should get you started; you'll want to increase charisma if/when you want to get into settlement building, and personally I think Party Boy/Girl is worth it. Intelligence isn't great to start out, because you won't have the materials to make use of Science. But you're gonna want them eventually. Chem Resistant/Chemist work really well together. I also suggest getting Aqua Boy/Girl at some point, but you don't need it right away. There's just a lot of fucking water in the game.
