I'm not sure what's worse, having to take my hand off ESDF and use the arrow keys for dialogue, or the fact that tab usually backs you up one level in menus, except at workbenches, where if you're at the root level enter exits the menu and tab keeps you in it, or the fact that the Controls menu doesn't actually let you redefine all the hotkeys. R-enter to scrap poo poo is also annoying as hell. You have to *work extra hard* to make an interface that bad. Is there a mod that lets you fix all that stupid poo poo yet?

Day Man posted:In Fallout 3, I was able to join that evil group in the beginning, unlock a sweet room in their tower, and nuke a town. I later became a slaver and was able to sell children into slavery. Is there a group like this that I can join in Fallout 4? Anyone know where to find them? Some goon mentioned like 10 pages ago he did find an evil baby eating cult or something. No clue where.

Not to mention that if you're in construction mode TAB doesn't quit but instead like sells or packs up the item you're currently looking at.  what in the gently caress Bethesda...At least on PC you can actually just click on things most of the time, it doesn't tell you but you don't need to use the key. Like instead of R-enter you can just click on "scrap" and then click on "enter". Also lots of stuff tells you to use one key but another key will do the same too because reasons

Get into the habit of using down arrow key instead of tab to exit a category for the build menu. I myself was a victim of tab in the build menu for many many hours.

Tr33 posted:I generally like fallout and am fine with the story. But one thing that's bothered me about the games is why nobody can figure out how to make a decent house that wasn't constructed in the prewar era. I mean it makes sense that you'd have to scavenge for stuff in a desert wasteland. But you're telling me in nobody in the old I-95 corridor with massive amounts of trees everywhere can't figure out how to build a nice log cabin or something? I've always assumed anyone not living in the big cities is pretty much scavenging for food/survival. You don't build a log cabin when you are beating someone to death for some 200 year old mac n cheese. Basically 80% of the people are in a hunter gatherer lifestyle. I'd expect to see tents and bedrolls before a log cabin.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:How are people finding unarmed/melee in this game? I've played that way in 3 and NV and enjoyed it. So far it feels a little underpowered but I only have the barest or perks in them yet. But I might also make sure I can use guns well as a backup. You can use guns well without any points in Perception or anything at all. You can aim without vats and always hit where you point, or use VATs within melee range if you have something like a mini-gun and want to dump a ton of damage into something.

I was expecting the pip-boy that comes in the special edition to be a piece of cheap crap, but not this bad. I pressed the top button and it got wedged in the case. When I unscrewed part of it to prop it back up, half the screws holding it in stripped their threading. Also I swear that button had a spring behind it but there's nothing and it doesn't push in at all anymore. Oh Bethesda

Skeezy posted:So is anyone rolling a gunslinger style character? If so how did you build the special for it and all? Put like 3-4 points in everything, then put lots of points in perception and agility. If you want to use VATS a lot, put lots of points into Luck. Get the luck based crit skills and poo poo as well as rifleman and stuff. If you want to use mostly manual shooting, don't take luck higher than 2-3. Get the obvious skills like gun nut and rifleman and go to town. Pretty straight-forward. Also consider if you want to go into sneaking or not. If so put more points into agility and get the sneaking perks. Everybody is treating SPECIAL like its really complicated but its actually extremely simple and straightforward. I love it SO much more than F3 or Skyrim's perks. projecthalaxy posted:It does! Three each of Corn, Mutfruit, and Tato, one water equals 5 adhesive.

So there was a rather misleading video clip pasted here a few days ago of Piper repeating the same phrase over and over and over again whenever the player passed by her and everyone talked about how they were going to avoid her.. She was trying to get his attention for a quest conversation. She doesn't actually do that. She said it once for me, then the dialogue options popped up, we had a nice chat, and that was that. I actually really like her as a companion, she's a spunky trouble maker and suites my "wasteland white knight who sneaks and lockpicks" lifestyle.

The bug is more complicated than just "piper is broken".

Its not just NPCs either, it's any audio line. I had to restart a game because Concord bugged out and had an endlessly firing phantom automatic pipe gun right out front of the museum. Could be heard within like 500 feet of town in any direction.

Yeah I'm always shocked how many goons are like "I bought this and played for 30 minutes and its boring so I refunded it". I guess its cool Steam lets you get away with that, but maybe spend more time thinking about if the game appeals to you before you buy it? And yeah, who cares, Its just $70. Are you poor and/or 13? Although I guess being poor sucks and we should't make fun of poor goons  Zero VGS posted:Does this game bother with a Karma system? I haven't seen it pop up but maybe it's a hidden stat?

Course I haven't gone super evil yet so it could sneak up on you.

Lots of merchants sell it though and you can set up shops in your own towns and stuff.
