So if your DR cap is 1000 instead of 100 like I read somewhere, doesn't that make Toughness absolute poo poo? It would be 5% DR for 5 points

What is the deal with the monkey clapper with red eyes thing and is it a coincidence that a huge bear with a skull hp bar killed me while I was investigating it? This all randomly happened as I took shelter from a rad storm which surprised the gently caress out of me. Nice touch

I'd like to see that confirmed too, I'm probably not going to use anyone besides Dogmeat just because I don't care for wrangling companions.

This is how I roll too. So the lone wanderer perk works with dogmeat I can confirm it because my carry weight did go up with dogmeat following me. Lost the carry weight bonus as soon as I got another companion.

It's a great perk all around.

Does this work with Codsworth too? Or is he too "human"?

Do all companions have the same inventory size? Codsworth's limit seems to be 150lb.

Some people just like playing house.

Me, I slapped 12 prefabs together and planted a few beds in there and now the people at Sanctuary are satisifed.

Speaking of housing - is there any way to take shelter during radiation storms? (Apart from just fast traveling away or entering an indoor cell)

A couple pictures got posted before the game came out that made it look far worse than it is.

Then it was just a matter of snowballing idiocy as the many, many people on the internet who are incapable of creating their own opinions jumped on the bandwagon.

I honestly feel bad for Bethesda. Sure, Fallout 4 has its issues but this feels like a witch hunt.

I've seen several clapping monkeys throughout the Commonwealth Wasteland, and I've shot them all. Some things are just too evil to live.

Yeah I don't get the bad reviews either. I expected Skyrim with Guns and that's what we got. I mean, sure the RPG elements are dumbed down but it's nice to now be able to pick up a laser gun and be effective with it instead of it doing piddly damage because I decided to dump all my points into Bang Bang instead of Pew Pew.

I would say no? I got a similar robot companion from vault 81 and that's when I noticed I lost the carry weight bonus.

tap for melee, hold then release for grenades, it's pretty easy imo

still stupid tho

I'm still playing catch-up on this thread, so please forgive me, but that control is loving stupid. I love this game unconditionally, but it's the same button you hold to hold your breath while sniping. I had just made the trek to Diamond City and walked up to security tangling with some Super Mutants in a building near the entrance, and one of them was Legendary so it was a pretty good fire fight. I joined in as a sniper with my stupid pipe gun and was holding the button to hold my breath, and while I was reloading the gun I didn't take my finger off the button for some reason. Heat of the moment. When I finally realized and released, it lobbed a grenade straight into the cover some Diamond City Security were hiding behind. Oopsie. Yeah, that was a re-load...



Two things. First, I found a minor Easter Egg in the form of wooden blocks spelling "GARY" and a teddy bear in the back of a trailer.

Second, a trader came through Sanctuary and her cows were hanging out in the road. I left, did some things, and came back, and her cows were inside the loving house with all the crafting tables with their big dumb heads sticking out the front window. It was funny so I got a laugh out of it and didn't make a fuss about it. The trader was nowhere to be found. I left, did some more poo poo, came back. Still heard the cows but didn't see them sticking out the window. That's because they're on the roof now. As far as I know, they're still there.

If you want the Junk Jet, go do the quest to help Paladin Danse of the Brotherhood of Steel, you'll run right into it while exploring the factory with him. He's not hard to find, just go south through Lexington and you'll pick up his team's radio message.

The non-pipe weapons have better reflex sights, but they require nuclear material. Even the 10mm pistol.
