Is anyone running with a GTX 460 I really don't want to get the PS4 version since mods are the only way the game is going to get better...but I don't want it to not be able to run. I can run it on my 460gtx, everything on lowest settings or turned off if possible. It runs, it's not pretty but the frame rate decent at approx 20-30.

Like deathclaws need to be more horrifying.

Huh? Bloatflies and Molerats take one shot each to bring down. Ghouls take like 3-5, one if you're in stealth. Now SCARY is the dumb loving dog causing you to get caught on stairs/doorways/thin air and have to stand up and be seen because hes loving under foot all the time.

New Leaf posted:I'm playing under the assumption that my character has accepted that he may never find his son but it's the only thing keeping him from having a total nervous breakdown. Realistically, the abduction could have happened 10 minutes into cryo, or 10 days, or 10 years, or 100 years, or 10 minutes before I woke up. Surely your character has to realize this. But you lost your infant son, and poo poo's weird now. Just roll with it. If you go talk to the "psychic" lady who wants drugs, she supposedly has a vision that your son is still alive which picks up the thread and tells you to move your rear end to diamond city. But she's also a drug-addled "psychic" so the way I'm roleplaying my dude I just called her out on bullshit and went about my business  BigRed0427 posted:How do I attract more settlers to my settlements?

LumberingTroll posted:Another awesome legendary drop I like seeing what they come up with. Mine have been relatively uninteresting, a +2 Luck arm piece from a Super Mutant, and a "Penetrating Lead Pipe  " from a Legendary Alpha Mongrel dog. That was a loving fight and a half. Penetrating is cool if you're into melee, it ignores 30% of armor and damage resistance. I used it when ammo was a concern because I got it really early on, but it has been permanently shelved now. I got something else from a ghoul that I didn't realize was legendary until it was almost dead but I don't even remember what it was. Think it was an armor piece that lets me take 15% less damage from Super Mutants or something.

yeah, bethesda literally didn't playtest this for female player characters, jesus christ. after you help piper with the interview, you get the next issue of Publick Occurences with the article about you in it, and literally every single instance where it should say "her" (as in "her hat is pretty" or whatever) says "hers" instead (as in "hers hat is pretty"), like some idiotic copy-paste error never got checked. kinda gettin mad about this.

I was definitely pretty spooked the first time mole rats started shooting out of the ground to bite my rear end. They're still super squishy but I appreciate that Beth seems to have given the beasts of the wasteland some small amount of scripting this time around. Now it actually makes sense that mole rats are considered a threat and can flourish, since they don't just charge headlong into bullets from a mile away.

Really loving terrifying. And these all felt completely non-threatening in the previous games. Bloatflies and molerats aren't so bad, but getting swarmed by 30 ghouls can be harrowing. Unless you are in powerarmor then just you know, whatever. The trick to making ghouls less terrifying is to shoot them in the legs (Until you get higher tier weapons then even a single chest shot will end them, except for glowing ones which are loving terrifying). I would like the legendaries to stop giving me garbage drops though. If I'm fighting some terrifying hell beast I want a worthwhile payout at the end. Especially when it's so tough that filling my veins with Med-X and Psycho seems like the only legit way to survive.

Since the male voice actor sounds like he's just playing along with all the crazy anyway, it kinda works. Honestly, whenever she talks, I'm just imagining her yelling "Humperdink, Humperdink, Humperdink!" over and over.

Ran into my first Feral Ghoul Roamer exploring. I don't know if this was just a weird physics thing or a planned behavior, but as I was lining up a shot (outside of VATS), he was sprinting at me and SLAPPED MY GUN AWAY. My targeting reticle and the model of the gun went way off to the side and down and he clawed me.

In my reality shes the war vet and hes the bitchmade stay-at-home-dad who got shot in the face. The kids not really hers because daddy got a little frisky with the secretary at his office, which is why he quit his job to stay home and watch the little poo poo. Now that its 200 years later mom's only goal is to find that little brat and end him.

Have fun with "Ugh." displayed on your screen at all times.

At least it's not as bad as Oblivion where half the random assholes in backwater inns you came across couldn't be killed because they had some gently caress-retarded quest.
