Attempting a full-melee run through the game and I have a feeling the deathclaws will put a stop to that. But im still near the start and running around with a pool cue wrapped in barbed wire seems to destroying everything in one hit on normal.

Rookersh posted:So Damage Resistance caps out at 1000, so the 50 you get from Toughness is not very useful. and 80 DR seems to reduce damage taken by ~30% compared to 0 DR, it'll be interesting to see if someone figures out what the formula for this poo poo is.

projecthalaxy posted:The drum mags you can put on Pipe weapons hold 48 I think and those can be non-automatic. Yeah my workhorse gun right now actually is a pipe rifle with a drum mag and the powerful receiver, it does really good damage per bullet (like close to 30) but it still fires single shot and has a clip of 48 bullets. Basically the ammo efficiency is fantastic, if I face something really gnarly I'll pull out my 10mm or an auto rifle but for most things the pipe rifle kills em just fine. And with the faster reload drum mag as a later upgrade I expected a really lengthy reload on the normal drum mag, but its not bad at all! Barely feels any slower than the previous clip reload. projecthalaxy posted:Neat! You wouldn't know how to do this on a PS4 would you? The UI should probably tell you when you're in the workstation. On the bottom of the UI it should list all the commands. Just look for track and see what it says.

Is there a point in the game where I stop getting trash Pipe weapons? I'm level 14 and I'm sick of cracking open loot containers just to get another terrible pipe pistol. On the flip side it makes all my non-pipe weapons seem really cool.

I don't know that that is even possible unless you avoid every area that has super mutants and most areas that have raiders. And also random stuff like suicide bomber molerats.

You'll start seeing more good weapons in tougher areas, but raiders keep using pipe trash I think. It's like skyrim in that bandits use poo poo-tier armour but are tough inherently and come in numbers. Keeps the loot valuable when you do get something good and stops the bandits in glass armour problem from oblivion.

Are there any cool-looking pieces of attire that also offer decent DR? So far I've only found sweet-looking outfits I can't wear with armor and which offer no DR, or lovely ratty armor that offers a zillion DR.

Synths look cool from an artistic standpoint, but they really don't fit in Fallout aesthetically or lore wise. They feel like they've come in from some other sci-fi game. Also, settlement building should have been tied to having a GECK and let you build nice clean Vault City style settlements as well as crappy junk buildings.

I'm going nuts  ing at this game because of how much more there is to it over New Vegas. Not just the new mechanic of building yourself a shelter and getting force-fed a suit of power armor in the first drat mission after the intro, even the little things like hitmarkers, and how you don't have to manually push a button to open every single box just to see what's in it.

I just read this: "When you use an item with multiple components to craft something else, it will destroy the other components not used in the process, wasting precious rare materials. For example, if you were to use a gold watch as a gears component, the gold will be destroyed in the process. However, if you break the watch down beforehand, you salvage all the raw materials." Someone, please tell me this isn't true.

There's a very disturbing level of enjoyment to be found in walking around tidying up the settlements. Just because it's post-apoc doesn't mean you should leave your poo poo all over the floor, goddamn.

I hit one of my biggest issues with Fallout/Elder Scrolls games last night.. Spoilers because it's side quest related: Wandering the edge of downtown Boston I found a lit amphitheater on the river with a bunch of people around. They were calling themselves the Pillars of the Community and were aggressively recruiting me into their flock. I won't go into too much detail, but it led to the leader taking me to a back room, demanding that I give him all of my belongings and after some dialogue, admitted that the whole thing was a scam to get people to give him all their belongings in order to help them live a simpler life. When I refused, he pulled a gun. I killed him immediately, but then his entire flock was like "What just happened?" and stormed me, so I had to slaughter a dozen or so lightly armed, entirely unarmored citizens because I couldn't explain why I killed their leader. To make matters even more annoying, now that they're all dead, I was now unable to loot everything that was laying around or even go into their locked back room because it would be considered theft based on criteria I don't understand. Mainly, the only thing holding me back was rep with Piper, who is my current companion, but still - realistically, it's just there for the next unscrupulous person who wanders by to take at their leisure. I understand not stealing items from people's houses, but once everyone who could conceivably be considered the owner of this item is dead, it should be fair game. Furthermore, how would a vendor even know it was stolen in the first place?

Probably kill them all for their armor parts soon. I did lots of stuff with the brotherhood in past fallouts so sorry guys.  Elderbean posted:Any silenced weapons early in the game?

Its something that has been discussed at length in the thread, the current consensus is that those items aren't actually wasted, they're just pooled and not immediately put into your workshop inventory which is really stupid but Bethesda.  Safest is still to break things down manually, but it doesn't seem to be THAT broken.

LumberingTroll posted:This is the building I have been working on. Thanks! Survival it is, then! Also, your building looks awesome! I've yet to try to build a whole house. Unrelated, one thing I learned by messing it up: Tesla Traps are a one-shot thing. I made one, wired it up, and now it's dead. You need to use one of those fancy pressure switches or laser switches, which I didn't know existed. I had no idea this tower defense game was so complicated. I'm a little disappointed how short wires are at max. You've got to make a ton of those connecting rods, which just burns more resources. On the funny side, there's enough copper in a light bulb to make a 20 foot wire, apparently.
