xth for robot building brought another day or two of fun
Post settlements with robot workshops!
Also, anyone has a pic of the new spotlight?
Reminder
Care about me pls and don't do more settlements.

>>136245105
Eh, when I did it I told him to flee, I was surprised Danse didn't have my head, but I felt killing a guy suffering from PTSD-enduced madness was a bit extreme (Saw some shit at anchorage) and figured if nothing else, odds are he'd end up getting his dumb ass killed later anyway.
Admittedly, a lot of my characters are a bit too laid back to go full BoS. ("I already fucking served a damn, formal army and went through hell for it. I'm not interested in signing on for another godforsaken tour")
>>136244979

SUPPORT SHAUN
>>136245656
Ugh... sucks so much that homemaker doesn't work on my system for some reason.
>>136245682
WHAT THE FUCK IS A SHAUN
>>136245656
Your player abode looks cute. I like you.
>>136245498
What made it even more nonsensical in hindsight was that I ended up sparing Danse. Maybe I'll get bored one day and do him over with some changes.
>>136245498
God, Nick is so fucking based.
Doesn't help that I'm a complete sucker for the noir detective trope.

/r/ing this Curie in better lighting
I wish you could mount weapons in the arm sockets without actually needing arms, I just want to make a small compact flying robot with two laser miniguns strapped to its side to protect my provisions
I posted this in the previous thread but I didn't get a response. Do any of you have the rock-it launcher shooting teddy bears fanart drawn by a Korean? Thank you in advance
>>136245498
>I was surprised Danse didn't have my head
I was surprised Danse hated the fact that I carried out my orders to the letter and killed the guy when he attacked me after confessing I had to get rid of those feral ghouls, ad victoriam, asshole
>>136245880
CBBE was a mistake. It only produces trash
wut
>>136246182
If someone with skills on the photoshop were able to throw in some lasers, this would be a pretty good representation of why that's a terrible idea.

I just want to shoot vertibirds out of the sky. I'll just be listening to the game when out of nowhere "wooshwooshwoooshwoosh" and gun fire.

>>136246507
Oh it's obvious that it would never work in real life since it'd fall apart from the intense vibrations of both miniguns firing

>111: Oh, you're right, I'll just go spend the rest of my life living in the basement with the other sex-bot building nerds.
>>136246182
but then how will it aim said guns? Better to just have the arms on a something that can swivel freely like an arm than force the thing to need to constantly spend energy spinning around and angling its whole body.
>>136246014
shame that line came at the end of a very ridiculous quest.
Yes, in my opinion, it's worse than Kid in the Fridge.
>>136245231
why are you faggots so vehement to defend 3 and 4. I don't even need to address the others, only people who really enjoyed 3 and 4 would make something like this.

It would be limited to an up and down movement and have to turn to aim sideways

>>136246883
Some people can look beyond memes and enjoy the games regardless of what mad manchildren on the internet say.
>>136246957
Everyone has a penis on the internet silly.
>>136247070
Do it. Ad victoriam, brother.
>>136246883
Because they're reacting to an online culture that's hated the games since they were announced.
Because they like it as much as you like whichever ones you like, and are willing to defend it as much as you would defend your interests when there are people shitting on them 24/7.
>>136247135
>beyond memes
but what memes are there? That 3 and 4 have less RPG mechanics and poorer writing than the other main series games? How's that a meme? By all means you can enjoy what you want to enjoy, but how can you deny that
>watch al play automatron
>he says it as atom a tron
I though it was auto matron
shit
>>136247352
it's auto mah tron
I got the schematic for the eyebot. Where do I craft it?
>>136247298
How can you cucks deny that Fallout 3 and 4 redefine the series when Bethesda owns the Ip and can literally dictate what it is.
>>136247530
It's a special build, like the robot crafting station.
>>136247352
It is. Whoever "Al" is, they're a fucking moron that chooses to ignore entire letters in a word.
>>136247298
The lack of mechanics are very minor in all actuality and I got over then a week after release. Perhaps you should do that same. The hyperbolic hate is the meme and you are willingly and knowingly perpetuating it.
>>136247352
Aw-tom-a-tron
>>136247646
Yeah but i watched another video and a different guy said it the same way

How can I build an unarmed energy build? I know the DLC has that T60 armour, and I know it can be modded to add energy damage to your unarmed attacks, but what else can you even use...?

>>136247673
>The hyperbolic hate is the meme
Me disliking a game which neutered an RPG series into a FPS with tacked on RPG mechanics is a meme? hilarious.
>The lack of mechanics are very minor in all actuality and I got over then a week after release.
I mean, that's good for you that you're willing to accept that sort of shit I guess. I wouldn't call them minor either.
So can you make eyebots or not?
If not then why?
>>136247832
Don't give into peer pressure. There's a fucking "u" in the word, there's literally no reason for it to be silent.
>>136247850
Power fists with Heating coil. That's all.
My saves (all of them) got corrupted
Do I need to replay the game from the very beginning in order to play to DLC?
>>136247843
But there are literally more RPG mechanics in NV than 3 and 4.
>>136248007
They're made via a docking station, you tell them to find something and then they fly off and mark a tiny amount of the item you requested on the minimap and ingame day later, overall pretty useless.
>>136247860
Jesus Piper looks pretty shitty upclose
I came here to see robot design ideas, not to watch a bunch of c-u-c-k-s try to defend the pieces of shit known as fallout 3 and 4
>>136248132
Like?
>>136247980
>Me disliking a game which neutered an RPG series into a FPS with tacked on RPG mechanics is a meme? hilarious
Its a meme because you didn't created the opinion or even really believe it, you're just acting like a retarded /v/ goer for some hot (You)s.
And this is the last one from me.
>>136248086
Just until you hit level 15
>>136248169
Yeah they're pretty useless, same with the spotlights.
>Get robots
>Still can't plant Silt beans, hubflower, all the blossom plants or bloodless

Fuck.
>>136248169
oh
Can you at least use mister gutsy/protectotron voices now?
>>136248169
Wait you can't have an eyebot companion? Shit.
I guess I will go back to playing new vegas and not complain too loud about it
>>136248215
Sonn
I haven't hit 15 yet on my newest character
I'll just be running around with Codsworth and Ada on her, forever
>>136247980
What did skills actually do for you anon? They lowered continuable gameplay significantly.
> well I'm at level 30, might as well make a new character our just be a literal Goddnd 5thed is shit because adnd had more rpg elements
You can't use gusty, but handy is available, with protectrons.
>>136248132
>Wow, three speech checks related to my skills, so much gameplay!
>>136248320
The heavier use of skills and perks through dialogue and how they can be used to complete quests in multiple ways. It existed in 3 sure though not much, doesn't exist in 4 at all except for that boat quest.
>>136248396
Haha.
No.
>>136248215
Ada on the right
>>136248320
Outdated numbers used for power gaming and mix-maxing, which is a dumb thing to want.
and the lack of dialogue checks for skill and stuff.
Which is honestly an honest point, the market is changing and a more streamlined way to deal with dialogue had to come at some point.

Well, I upgraded Codsworth into a death machine... I feel like a monster.
Also, I noticed he'll comment about Sir/Mum being "handy" sometimes after using robot workbench, is this new and only for the robot workbench? Or did he make comments like that before when crafting at other stations?
>>136247298
The thing that disappoints me about 4, really, is how good it could have been.
We're told at one point that the institute tried to help the commonwealth once. It would have been more interesting if they failed due to proto-Railroad terrorism.
Making the Institute do evil shit "just because" and the Railroad a bunch of gud boys who dindu nuffin was a massive failure on Bethesda's part.

Does any rank of the Inspirational perk affects robots?
>>136248856
Instigating gauss rifle.
Wounding combat shotgun, explosive can kill you.
Can fallout pnp be discussed here?
yo I have a fucking force field of CTD outside of boston airport that's preventing me from progressing my game

What if there was a spin off game that works like XCOM, but you control the BOS or the Enclave?

Yeah those Gorgon bots got hacked that way, then I sent them both on the chick in the unique power armour and sat back.
>>136249619
I always end up hacking when I go to reload though
>>136249446
Just set all melee robots to self destruct, instantly makes the game harder.

It's like instigating but with every shot at any amount of hp
>>136249787
I miss intimidating super mutant behemoths
>>136249079
>>136249787
Yeah, having those parts in the modding system would be boss.
Although Roboscorpions wouldn't really be compatible with anything else.
Also miss Cyberdogs.
>>136249871

I miss gecko and Y-17 trauma override harnesses.
How do I scrap a robot once I've built it?
So, I've already beaten the game and done pretty much every interesting side quest (I think, might be one or two more, point is that I've done most the quests)
Now I need like 3 more levels to get Robotics Expert 2 to unlock all the cool parts for automatrons (I didn't see anything needing rank 3)
Are there any good places to clear or repeatable quests that give more exp?
I realize I could probably spam crafting but I want to grind for a little. bit.

Fuck yes an excuse to use Power Armor.
I usually don't use it since I like to be able to take damage.
>what to start over to do a more refined build I did

Shit sucks
>>136250445
Tell it to blow itself up
>>136250378
That's a joke, isn't it?
FO3's quest is linear as hell, at least from that graph. Beyond the Beef is much, much more complicated than that graph even shows. Just read the huge walkthrough for it.
>>136250378
>>136249603
These both miss out so many steps for NV whereas for 3 it shows each individual speech check.
>>136250378
>12 go here kill that loot this return to write a book

>rescue kid from cannibals or betray your employer
I bet you think radiant quests are unlimited content too
>>136249446
I was just about to post that here. Not that I mind, barely use the perk otherwise.
Do the Rust Devils appear at all after that one mission?
Their bots looked cool as fuck, would be a shame if they didn't get thrown into the random encounter pool.
>>136250834
scrap is a relative term here. once you blow it up you can't retrieve anything from it that was used to build it
>>136248169
>fuck yeah an eyebot station, was wondering when I could build them
>oh ok, no companions, but at least I can send em to collect scrap
>oh ok, they don't collect scrap, just mark it on the map. at least I get nice amount of scrap without having to pick everything up or go full water jew for shipments
>oh ok, it only highlights a single container with a small as fuck amount of scrap. at least I can go back to playing new vegas
>>136250742
I wear PA 24/7 unless I need to hack a terminal or craft something. 91 self found/bought power cores and I have no reason not too, I have 11 strength since I'm melee, and since PA increases melee damage I have even less reason to, makes going to the glowing sea, and anywhere else for that matter a walk in the park.
>>136250378
Now this is just plain denial and falsifying information. Just kill yourself. Makes me want to never come back to this festering shithole of a general.
>>136251056
They're random encounter enemies now, along with mechanist bot patrols
>>136251056
Yeah they travel around in packs and raid settlements
>>136251056
Yes. You'll run into patrols of them and can clear out their base multiple times
>>136250970
Even worse: it considers three necessary steps for the quests as alternate choices, as evidenced by the decision of using a parallel diagram.
< This is correct use of parallel diagram. Also
>varying XP depending on actions
Butthurt Bethestard.
Was that museum location added in the dlc or did I never notice the giant mr handy from the distance?
>>136251091
I have like 80 something cores. I don't use Power Armor because it makes the game boring.
>>136251161
>>136251274
>>136251289
Excellent.
Another good quest.
>>136251346
You are an unobservant fuck.
>>136251080
Yeah, whoever decided THAT should be the utility of the Eyebots needs to be fucking shot.
I am so fucking tired of saying "Mods'll fix it", but.. hopefully they will.
so in a nutshell this DLC is for populating settlements with robots, and creating your own companion ?
>>136251585
>>136248641
and it's just a random-bot on the left?
nice idea using protectotron arms on the handy body for that roundness. I keep winding up with maxed out carry weight tesla packed faggots like pic related.

Put your trip back on, Courier. You aren't fooling anyone.
Do Automatons do anything while they are left in settlements?
I don't really like the Machinest HQ, but there is some appeal in turning it into a robot city. Just wondering if anything would come of it, or if it would just be a resource sink.

Ada is designed completely for combat so she looks pretty damn rough.
>>136252234
>Now you're literally being Courier, stop.
I came here today for the first time (to look for robot ideas) so I'm not aware of the tripfags that inhabit this place.
>>136252234
So do they collect scrap?
If not I should maybe build an outdoor robot paradise.
What's the maximum amount of robots I can have at a settlement? I want to build a literal factory of scavenging robots.
>>136252381
>>136252325
Courier is someone with just many opinions as you, at about the same quality.
>>136252396
They do
>>136252515
As many as you can physically build

robo scorpian bodies(plus tail) would take up the same slot as mr handy thruster, with legs taking up thruster arm slots, and other bodys can be placed on top like so(with an option for no body at all)
the pincers would take the front thruster arm slot, legs taking the side thruster arm slots, and the tail would be attached to the body as an armour option(with different shooting tail types)
it's all explained in this pic

I have 200 and use PA all the time since Ilike to pretend I'm Iron Man.
Wait do the robots add up to the settler counter?
If they do, what happens to the robot you make in that settlement? Does it just roam the settlement while not counting as a settler and not being able to be ordered in build mode?
I can't wait for more orky mods
>>136253134
They don't add to settlement population. Having many robots won't stop you from recruiting normal settelrs

They add up on the visual counter, but they don't actually count as adding to the limit.
>>136253553

yea i'm not using that this is what just happens if you have lighting and godrays on low
So, do settlement lights work correctly yet instead of mysteriously going out?
>>136255027
I play on ultra you fag, character lighting happens regardless of graphics settings. It's a "feature".
>>136250378
but the 'random' fallout 3 quest in that image is one of the biggest and most fleshed out quests in that game, and beyond the beef's walkthrough in that image is severely gimped and doesn't include nearly all your options. What's with that?
>>136255186
still have to shoot my searchlights and repair them or just move them to make them be on again
this whole settlement building never left beta since release
>>136255027
Wouldn't you need to enter it every time you load the game?

I've kind of got the urge to play again, but I remember shit like that, the clunky perk system, and how shitty settlements actually get and I kind of err.

Since some autists can't read a description here is what http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/3771/? says.
This is not a mod, but a little guide to help you turn off the fake character light, so all of the NPCs, Enemies and the Player, don't "glow" in the dark anymore.
The fake lights in the vanilla game, helps the characters to be easily distinguishable from the background, but most of the time the effect is really odd and too strong for my taste.
In exterior it is less noticeable, and it make more sense because it can be interpreted as a kind of skylight, even at night.
But in the interiors, and dark areas, all the characters (and dead bodies) are "glowing" and feels completely out of the scenery, and it can break the immersion a little.
If like me, you want to try to play fallout 4 without this lighting trick, this is how to disable it :
-1) If you want to test the game with and without the fake character lights, simply type "cl off" in the console. Type "cl on" to turn it back on.
-2) And to make it off by default, simply add the line "sStartingConsoleCommand=cl off" under "General" in your "Fallout4.ini". (it will type it for you in the console each time you launch the game, so you'll don't have to bother)
-3) It is also possible to adjust the strength of the effect, instead of completely removing it, by using the "cl rim" console command. (thanks lordjb for the info !)
Default is "cl rim 0.02", but you can set it to "cl rim 0.002" to make it more subtle.
Play with the value as you like, between "cl rim 1" (ultra bright), and "cl rim 0.001 (almost invisible)
And of course, once you've got the perfect settings, type "sStartingConsoleCommand=cl rim X.XXXXX" under "General" in your "Fallout4.ini" and replace the X.XXXXXX with the value of your choice.

looks like a hotter piper
Has anyone else made a robot salvage operation yet? I gave up on my first one too quickly.
I don't know if its really that efficient or not since each robot costs 11 aluminum, and a plethora of other materials to make. So if it takes one in-game hour for a 40 robot sweatshop to make enough materials to make 1 robot, I'd have to play for 40 hours just to get my investment back.
This is probably a bad thread to ask this question in: But should I buy Fallout 4?
I enjoyed Fallout 3, but after playing Skyrim to death I was kind of hoping Bethesda would update their engine instead of giving the ancient thing a face lift before throwing it out there for another round.
Skyrim, at least, had graphics which were pretty fucking stunning for the time it was released. Fallout 4 by contrast, especially on the heels of the Witcher 3, looked dated even before it was released and was rife with the unnecessarily buggy and stilted gameplay characteristic of the Gamebryo engine.
Then there's the dialog wheel, the gutted RPG mechanics, the terrible game pacing... Overall it seemed an extremely mediocre game installment for literally their longest development cycle yet.
That being said: Far Harbour looks enticing to me considering that there are no open-world games with Cthulhu Mythos settings.
I'm just not sure if buying the game because of a single expansion would be worth it though, especially in the context of my reluctance to support a company that seems to be becoming complacent with its game development.
>>136257289
you could always build a bunker room for yourself and idle while you sleep
>>136257379
No, get fnv
>>136257379
buy it for the mods and get it on GreenManGaming right now its dirt cheap. if not just pirate it man, but you owe it to yourself to at least try the game.
>>136257548
Already have it, and I enjoyed it.
so who's the dank memer responsible for the shitpost that won 2000 reddit points
>>136257631
Thanks for the input, I'll check it out there than if I decide to buy it.
>>136257379
Kill yourself and leave it in your will. Maybe your next of kin won't act like a fucking dumbass and go onto a game general just to low-key shit on the game.
>>136256848
what clothing mod?
>>136257670
>>136257379
Fo4 definitely feels like a new engine compared what skyrim was to fo3
mediocer graphics are worth the above average gameplay, but don't be fooled, they are unoptimized as fuck
yeah, the gutted RPG mechanics and dialogue wheel is pretty obvious, but you can put up with it for at least one playthrough, then just go back to new vegas
don't be excited for that DLC. Knowing bethesda, the ghoul whale will be a shit boss and the entire DLC will either havin you sucking down rads swimming to a place that gets you back on land or have you stuck on the ocean floor in power armour
Just pirate it nigger, you'll get to try the automatron DLC for free as well
>>136257289
>11 aluminium
Wow, that's like a whole six of the shiny cans hanging around every goddamn location in the game!
>>136252789
>>136252515
The only limit is how many your PC can handle.
But I don't know if its that efficient or not. I tested this with 40 something bare Protectrons, they generated like 11 aluminum in an hour. And a ton of other shit. I heard an anon say if you tag materials they'll search for those specific materials, so I guess I could try that, but damn it was a pain setting up that sweatshop.
Robo provisioners proved to be VERY fucking useful though, I finally used them to link all of the settlements. Now every settlement has defense, water, and food. Even Mechanist lair, its kinda funny watching a Brahmin walk through the Robobrain facility with its Sentry provisioner, and seeing the congregation of 31 robots and their 31 brahmins every now and then at the hub I made.
>>136257882
as opposed to the general's high key shitting on the game
>>136257882
Chill, I'm asking about whether or not to buy the game in a thread which extols its merits. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt.
>>136257994
Thanks for this, I'll wait until the DLC comes out than and see what the response is. If it's shit, I'd be sorely disappointed with wasting money on the game.
>>136244979
So I heard that the survival overhaul is going into steam beta sometime next week. The question is, do I fuck around with automatron now or do I wait until I can create my new character under the new survival mode? I will not change the difficulty after leaving the vault for the first time on any character, and I consider this overhaul to be a new difficulty.
>Either way I will be starting a new character once the beta hits
>>136257520
>Idling in a single player game
I might as well use console if I'm going to do that, but I love the idea of making a robot factory...if only they were more efficient.
>>136258003
I'm hoping Wasteland workshop adds more resource gathering stations, like plant gathering, moonshine, would be nice to see higher tiers of scavenge stations, too.

>>136258417
I just don't often expect console users on /fog/. I don't really expect console users anywhere especially when playing a bethbyro game (where half the selling point is modding it), but I guess there's always a few weirdos and outliers.
>>136258417
>playing bethesda rpgs on a console
>>136257980
Godammit Bethesda, is it too fucking hard to do stealth at least moderately well?
Fucking 2D games have better stealth mechanics than this.
>>136258417
>not playing on pc
So, I beat the mission of the dlc within like, three hours, but it feels super worth it because the robots have made me actually invested in the settlement building.
I want my robutt children to live in a perfectly cozy shack.
