Fallout4 couldn't detect my graphics card and gave me the lowest settings. It runs really choppy whenever I move, I guess it's time to buy a new graphics card.

Ularg posted:John Marston is a good character but I think Necromonster prefers games where you insert yourself, like Elder Scrolls and Fallouts. I actually prefer games with absolutely as little story telling as possible generally. Doesn't matter if it's player insert stuff or not.

I didn't understand why people said that cryogun was cool when it didn't come with any ammo. Where did you get ammo for it? Then hours later...  Stupid dog.

yeah the best story setup for a bethesda type game is "you are some random person with no past who just got dumped in this place for no real reason" it doesn't make sense to try to have a sense of urgency since most players want a more freeform experience or are going to spend more time building a village or whatever than rushing off to look for a baby or 200 year old kid or whatever

Seriously I just gave it some thought and realized that if black isle, troika, or obsidian didn't make it there is zero chance I will care about the story in a player insert game at all.

Thin Privilege posted:Finally started the game and picked up the gun. How do I go back to pure melee? PS4. ...equip a melee weapon? Also, how screwed am I going to be if I can't be bothered with the settlement stuff? I'm doing the minuteman quests, and so I have four settlements already. Apart from the original quest to put some beds and stuff down, I haven't bothered doing anything with any of them. I'd much rather wander around the wasteland exploring and doing quests than fighting that horrible UI.

They don't seem remotely able to figure out that the same would work just as well, and indeed be just as necessary, in FO.

The issue there is that it makes the main quest no more interesting than any other quest in the game. Which I guess is fine from a certain perspective. Still, I'd prefer to have more motivation to get to the end than a sense of obligation.

I'm pretty sure I just killed more raiders in the Corvega factory than there were in the entire city of New Vegas, holy poo poo. I was there a while. The raider with the Fat Man blew himself up though so I couldn't get the launcher; he and the gun flew off somewhere.

This is my raider murder machine.  81 Damage per shot. People complaining about Survival being bad because bullet sponge enemies are doing it wrong, kit your weapons out and use them to your advantage, armor piercing mods are great as well. I 2 shot legendaries.

Most notable item was a machete with +dmg to mirelurks from a super mutant. they really need to fix the bug with the terminals locking you in place.

Just took a dremel to our plastic Pip-Boy and now it successfully holds our HTC One M8 cell phones. There's baaaaaarely enough room for it if you dremel away all but the thinnest sliver of plastic.

The Male Player was established as a former Soldier. Maybe she has the same background and they met in the army? Or maybe its CHIM. Also is Codsworth better to adventure with than Dogmeat?

I am loving Survival difficulty and am glad I picked it to start if only for the first deathclaw encounter. Man that was a rush. Also the dog is stupid and useless, both in combat and out. 'Your dog needs help.' Well then he shouldn't have long jumped into a hail of bullets.

Quick question, why can I slap armor bits on when I'm wearing my Vault Suit, but not when I'm wearing a Tuxedo? Is there some kind of class difference between the underlayers of clothing?

I enjoyed being pinned down by like five raiders above me firing machine guns at me only for my dog to charge headlong into the bullets as if he was expecting to jump up them like Mario to bite faces. Is cogsworth an actual combat companion or is he like a joke thing, may switch to him until I get someone better.

If you just want to skip to the end because gently caress trying to follow the trail in that maze of streets: Go to the basement of the Old North Church. Use the wheel thing down there to type RAILROAD

Dog is the best pack mule/bullet tank that there is because he doesn't give one gently caress about anything. Mole rats, raiders, supermutants, he will take them on for the sake of his master, a guy he randomly found in the woods I very rarely use the power armor for obvious reasons but it is always nice to just throw up your hands, yell "gently caress it", and return to the area you were trying to slave your way through with a metal skin and a minigun. It barely seems fair at times. CuddleCryptid fucked around with this message at 07:00 on Nov 11, 2015 |

Having plenty of fun so far. FINALLY found the armor workbench in the starting town and was kitting out all my armor with studs to boost DR. Also kitted out a pretty drat nice pipe rifle to use until I can start finding energy weapons and appreciable amounts of energy ammo. I miss ammo recycling from NV already. So far I found the perception bobblehead and a repair bobblehead. The repair one boosts fusion core duration by 10%; seems kinda minor but I'm hoping with the appropriate INT perks I can run around in power armor for a good long while. Also found a fat man already, I'm like level 6. Only one mini-nuke for it but still. Seems crazy to get one this early.

Is there some kind of class difference between the underlayers of clothing? The game does a shitpiss job of explaining its armor layers system, but Tuxedos and other "outfit" type clothing will occupy both your jumpsuit and all of your armor slots. Don't wear them except for funsies. Jumpsuits are different, they only take up your "underlayer" and you can equip armor pieces on top of them.
