So I want to play Fallout Shelter but my phone is a relatively ancient Samsung thing that doesn't have the required minimum version of Android. (Needs 4.1, mine is I think 2.3.) Someone in in the Fallout 4 thread mentioned a thing called Bluestacks which appears to be an emulator of sorts but I tried it and the very first thing it did was bluescreen my computer and the second thing it did was put shortcuts on the desktop and in the start menu that point nowhere at all so nope, gently caress that.

Is there any way I can, legally, play this game that doesn't involve me either buying a new phone or tablet or borrowing the same from someone?

I could have sworn that I saw someone say somewhere, that you can merge two rooms together which aren't the same type as long as they're the same level. I could swear I did so accidentally once, but can't remember what the rooms were that combod together. Has anyone else figured this out?

Is anyone else playing Astronest? It was mentioned in passing earlier and I picked it up, and I actually really like the space empire building game. There's research, building poo poo on planets, colonizing planets (though that's just clicking a button to dump resources while a bar fills), setting up your fleet's formations, ship types, fittings, etc. There's quite a lot of optimization and customization, and there's an Alliance vs. Horde thing going on for worldwide PvP that earns rewards and stuff every day. It's a time waster that's holding my interest for now, anyway.

EDIT: If anyone is and hasn't played much yet, don't blow all of your money developing your starting planet's buildings until you get the 2h exp bonus a ways into the tutorial. It'll let you pump up the level of your planet's administrator twice as fast. I don't know what their level actually DOES, but I'm all about numbers going up :flashfap:

Yeah I tried it but I thought it was more like a 4x game when I quick looked at the page. Once I saw it was a Pocket Knights etc clone I was far less interested but I gave it a shot but it just doesn't do anything new or interesting to make me want to bother over Summoners War.

drat, using that Fallout Shelter save really exposes the Skinner box loop of the game. After 70 lunchboxes and 20 minutes I had 3 fully upgraded floors staffed by 20 high level dwellers all sporting high end weapons and outfits.

Buying one Mr. Handy is helping me breeze through the early game. I've got a 3 space electrical room, 3 space water joint, and 2 space Cafe and he's been keeping the base ready to go... Of course, that means there isn't really any game to play, so that's... cool?

Yeah I mean it's a fun little tiny Tower type thing but when you "hack" it to give you hundreds of the gameplay shortcuts it literally removes all of the gameplay. Other than the main loop of attracting dwellers and sending them out there's what, waiting for raiders? With the 400 lunchboxes containing every resource, dwellers, weapons, and caps, it kind of replaced the actual gameplay which feels kinda gross because it's not "pay to win" it's "pay to replace playing at all".

If there's an event in the storage room (fire, radroaches, etc), you have someone who can start fighting immediately. It's also a place you can put high-Endurance characters for "Place X Dwellers in the right room" objectives, which boosts their personal (and the vault's overall) happiness. I think that's about it, really. I usually keep my high-Endurance dwellers out in the Wastelands anyway.

The only real purpose is allowing you to assign dwellers there is so that you have somewhere to put them if, for whatever reason, you don't want to assign them to another room. There's a loading screen tip about it. It's a good place to collect all of the useless dwellers who show up with high charisma before you send them out into the wastes to die.

Also what are you guys strategies in starting out your vaults? I'm currently hurting on having people with some intelligence stats. Should I just be sending people out into the wastes over night? When I do they died at some point and I revive them so they can bring back poo poo they found.

I gave it a whirl... They section recipes off into IAP packs... I was offended, but now that I think about it, it'd be about $20 for all the content, and that's what a DS game costs, so :shrug:

I didn't end up buying anything.

The game plays great, though. Graphics are very nice.

I'M APPARENTLY GAY AND MY POSTING SUCKS.
I'm enjoying Fallout Shelter, it's a good mobile Sim Tower type game. I like how Bethesda made it easy to access and modify save files. Also it's easy to transfer the files back and forth from phone to tablet so I can play with whatever device I want. It's really smooth on my tablet. I went ahead and gave my vault a few extra lunchboxes to help me catch up to some iPhone users that I know.



:wink:

Some hassles I wish Bethesda to fix:
- Make it easier to see and toggle dwellers' health bars during an attack
- Make it easier to double tap and zoom into a room without accidentally toggling a dweller
- A menu to see all dwellers' equipped weapons and armors to make it easier to switch out gear without having to individually toggle every dweller.

Did you start a new vault first? I don't know if it will work with a fresh install.

This is the full path

/storage/sdcard/android/data/com.bethsoft.falloutshelter/files/VaultX.sav

If you've moved the app to your SD card you'll have to put the file there. There should be a bunch of files besides the .sav file in the folder.
