Jeez, you can quick-save just before pressing the final button that completes a quest, and keep reloading until the 3x or 5x Idiot Savant XP bonus triggers. I've gained multiple levels at once from major quest completions. Sure it feels pretty cheaty, but show me a Fallout 1/2 player who says they haven't save-scummed pickpocket attempts, and I'll show you a liar.

Decided to make a house that wasn't just a bed inside a wooden box. I'm generally really bad at this but I think I'm doing okay so far.

Is there no way to take the actual power armor frame from somebody if you kill them? I can't seem to get in or take the corpse out. It lets you loot all the parts but I want another full suit of armor to pilot around  I guess I don't really need it though

Mister Adequate posted:Oh gently caress I had hoped and dreamed for this and I honestly thought I was poo poo out of luck. This Changes Everything. I no poo poo just grabbed one of the items that unlocks new settlement placeables and it unlocked like a dozen new lights for the "high tech" format. Which is a post-modern or sci-fi look depending on the light type so there's a poo poo ton of items you can unlock. If you want to spoil yourself on what to look for to unlock new settlement items then read the spoiler below. There is a new magazine that was added in Fallout 4. It's called Picket and Fences. Each issue unlocks a new set of items. There's apparently a lot of them, and people are just now starting to find them. They also blend into some terrain types really easily. If you've been playing for awhile and have cleared out a few dungeons you've probably missed one or two of them. So have fun finding them all.  Edit: Ahaha. Just found another one that I missed earlier. It literally unlocked an entire new category under structures. Okay, yeah. There's a poo poo ton of hidden settlement stuff you can dick around with going off of that. Archonex fucked around with this message at 05:43 on Nov 12, 2015 |

Everyone keeps saying he shows back up in Sanctuary at the dog houses in the town but it's been over 24 hours and he hasn't shown up at any of them. When my Dawgmeat disappeared on me, he was hanging out at the Red Rocket gas station you first meet him at, not Sanctuary. e; ^ Oh poo poo yes. Thank you for this information goon sir!

Interesting, the dog is just called "Dog" until Mama Murphy tells you his name is Dogmeat, then his name changes in the interface. Also about Mama Murphy: She gives you hints on the main story quests. Giving her chems disappoints a lot of followers, but she gave me a code phrase to give to the mob boss about to attack Nick Valentine, and using it made him spare us and we got out of there. Interesting.

That was the first one that tipped me off to them existing. If you're questing it's next to impossible to miss it. You can also unlock new items by doing quests. Seems like at least factional stuff is locked behind it. I noticed I got a minutemen flag by accepting Preston's offer. Archonex fucked around with this message at 05:48 on Nov 12, 2015 |

This game's console is not fully functional. According to help "laser" 4, the laser gun (laser pistol, I'm assuming) is 000148B48. I input the player.additem, the game tells me Laser Gun added, but my inventory doesn't have it.  EDIT: Maybe this spreadsheet with item ID's will be useful in the OP? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1J9quAMtGK70aptz0t5teqWHGZJ9T9uvJmzNEBJEB36Q/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true EDIT 2: Never mind. additem doesn't work.

How do I set up trade convoys? I can build shops, but ehhh Also half the time the console commands choose not to work, and I can't figure out why. Sometimes TCL works, other times, it's just like nope.

Just ran into my first radiation storm. Was standing there breaking things down and all of a sudden I hear thunder and start sucking up rads. Took me a minute to realize what was happening. It's such a small thing, but it's super atmospheric. I just know one day I'll be traveling down a road, a rad storm will hit, and a Deathclaw will stroll in from the fog. Good to hear about books unlocking more stuff. I'm hoping each DLC adds in a bunch more items, too. Looking forward to the day I demolish the secret base equivalent of a jalopy and spruce it up with fancy new parts. It'd be nice if there were walls with radiation protection so I could better seal off the Starlight's toxic pool. ymgve posted:I just saw an UFO crash and managed to locate the crash site, but apart from the downed UFO which I can't interact or anything with, there's nothing there?

conversation piece posted:So uh, how do you do it??? haha Open up your workshop menu, and look at a settler, you'll get some options for that settler at the bottom: Go, Move, and Supply Line. Go is used to assign them guard towers or trade shops, Move is to assign them to a new settlement, and Supply Line assigns them to that. What I was saying was the easiest way I've found to add a new settlement to my supply line route is to select an extra settler at an existing base, Move them to a new base, and while the are still standing in front of you assign them to a supply line.

Get those medium and long scopes. There's nothing as satisfying as taking out a raider stronghold, replete with power-armored raider, from a safe distance across a river where they'll never find you. My character feels like a badass biker goddess of lead rain and destruction.

Also, loving lol, I'm only level 10 and put two perks into Sneak with 9 AGI, and now when I'm in a dim apartment hallway, even if a Raider Psycho is already in "Caution" mode and actively searching for me, as long as I stay ducking and don't move he'll actually bump into me and *push me out of the way* to continue his diligent search. At the very least, he does spot me if I turn the Pipboy flashlight on in his face. Noyemi K posted:Get those medium and long scopes.

My character feels like a badass biker goddess of lead rain and destruction. I'm able to take out things from super far with just a short scope, just hold your breath and line up to the right pixel. On a PC, turning up the draw distance to max is good for that stuff. Zero VGS fucked around with this message at 06:01 on Nov 12, 2015 |

Ugh So a good starting route would be: Sanctuary -> Red Rocket -> Abernathy (you'd think worthless but lots of food here) -> Sunshide Tidings -> Grey Garden -> Starlight -> Outpost Zimonjia -> Tenpines -> Sanctuary I found a map and used MSPaint to highlight my plans. Red are my initial plans, yellow is what i'll do next, and after that I'll do blue. I think I'll be ready for the castle after this. Map: (warning spoilers)

In my experience the spread is too high for me to do that successfully, or at least with my pipe snippy snipe (the one with the short scope). The medium and long scope mods improve accuracy and for as far as you can see, you generally get no spread. Funy story, in fallout NV the spread was very predictable on a weapon you couldn't entirely control, so I knew the different sweet spots for landing pixel-perfect longshots with the Anti-Materiel rifle. I never had to use a different gun and boone sorta became obsolete besides for his spotter perk.

Also had my mind blown earlier when I read that using your critical hit always resulted in a 100% accurate shot. That actually true? If so, that Hardened Sniper Rifle is going to get some serious play when dangerous things show up.

On the cooking station you can create Vegetable Starch, which breaks down into 5 adhesive. It requires Mutfruit, Corn, Tato, and Purified Water which you can all produce at your settlement.
