I found a second suit of slightly junked power armor, hell yeah. I guess the best thing to do with it is set up a second settlement and drop it there for later use? I can't craft power armor stations yet so it's going to stay sort of hosed up for a while unless I swap the pair of suits out at Sanctuary. I can't stop messing with the settlement stuff even though I'm sticking to prefabs for now. It's a lot more fun than I thought it'd be! Sanctuary's up to 7 dudes now.

It is, but psychics have been in the series since FO1 and that one kid in NV did the same thing just without the sweet drugs, so whatever.

I like how the loading screen tooltip that mentions the plastic surgeon has this gnarly loving buzzsaw next to it. e: quoting my question for new page Doc Morbid posted:When do I get something to replace this hideous vault suit? I'm like 15 hours in, and the vault suit is still the only decent thing you can wear underneath the armor. I have some road leathers, which look cooler but have lovely stats and can't be upgraded so I'm not bothering with those. I suppose I could just put on the Silver Shroud coat again...

For the Old Guns quest, I'm supposed to be zeroing the artillery but the dude just stands by the radio and keeps saying there's not enough power. What gives? I have 43 units of power all linked up to the various lights, and plenty for the radio. Plus you can't task other settlers to do it or order the guy to broadcast. All these generators are probably polluting my crops

Do enemies always spawn inside a settlement during an attack? I built giant loving walls everywhere with well defended entrances specifically to avoid this sort of nonsense, but I rolled up to an attack on Abernathy and there were muties already inside the perimeter. Going to be real pissed if I spent all this time on good walls for no loving reason.

Psychics are a pretty common thing in this kind of post-apocalyptic mutant setting. If anything I'm impressed that Bethesda didn't dive off a cliff with it and let you be a loving pyrokinetic wizard or whatever.

Doc Morbid posted:I like how the loading screen tooltip that mentions the plastic surgeon has this gnarly loving buzzsaw next to it. Honestly, I've just been switching back and forth between wearing Road Leathers with armor and wearing Preston Garvey's duster (which I stole from him by making him equip something else). The Vault Suit has better stats but screw it, I gotta look good. Which I don't when I'm in armor, but at least I'm not wearing a goofy blue and yellow suit. I'm still looking for decent-looking actual armor out there, but so far I haven't found anything. It's either "look like a pile of cobbled-together bullshit" or "have no damage resistance at all" and that kind of sucks.

I've been complaining a lot about the game in this thread (the quests are too linear! there's not enough good-looking gear that's actually viable to wear!), so here's my positive post: Weapon modding is pretty legit. I got this unique laser pistol called Old Faithful that deals double damage if the target is at full health. Cool, I thought. I've been leveling both Gunslinger and Rifleman, so I can ditch Righteous Authority for this. My Rifleman is higher than my Gunslinger, but that's still okay, Old Faithful had higher base damage either way. Then I took it to the modding bench and realized that I could slap a stock on it and the game would count it as a rifle. Any game that lets me outright change the weapon type of a unique weapon with a badass perk is all right by me.

Hey I haven't had a lot of time to play the game, and when I do play, I play very slowly. So I'm just popping in to ask a random question: I helped some dude out at Thickett Excavations and I got sneaky and read his log entries on a nearby terminal. Seems like he wants to use this place as an outpost to be a raider. Can I just up and kill the dude now since he's bad?

Dumb framerate woes post: I've played 2 and a half hours or so and my fps is pretty drat bad, regardless of all the fixes and settings ice tried I messed with the .ini files and turned the apparent 30 fps cap value and a couple others with zero help at all. I've even put all of the setting the lowest they could possibly go and it still lags a ton i5, 16gb ram, 6900 ati (yeah I know this is old, but shouldn't effect it too much?) Its probably around 30-25fps with it getting slowly slower... I googled this a ton and went through the steam guide as well as guides on other sites Would appreciate the help!!!

How high do weapon attack ratings go? My cool unique laser pistol can, I'm pretty sure, go up to 60ish at max once I get the Overloaded Capacitor mod on it, but I can't do that until Science! rank 3. Is that a lot for a fast-firing pistol/rifle, or is it going to be outclassed by random drops once I'm level 40+?

God drat the building controls are loving cool. I threw up a 3 story citadel in like a minute. I only had one issue on the second floor I wanted all of the boards running one way and the game really, really wanted to snap the piece in running the other way for some reason I couldn't figure out. Now I just need like 100 ceramics and oils to get all my spotlights set up.

I got a mutfruit from a random container and planted it but still dunno where to find any for real... I found a farm full of corn near Cambridge in my first couple hours, sorry I can't recall where exactly.

I've run into my first game-breaking bug during the main quest: I've gone up to the BoS flagship and gotten a new suit of power armor, and I've been told by Elder Maxson to get on the Vertibird to go gently caress up some super mutants, and there's no way to actually get on the Vertibird. I've checked on videos of the quest, and there's supposed to be a prompt to enter the Vertibird that just isn't appearing for me. I've noclipped around the whole Vertibird and can't get the prompt to pop up, and Googling just shows a bunch of nonsolutions. Is there any way to get around this with the console, maybe? Any fix?

In further "people on Reddit put way too much work into this poo poo" news, here are some figures on how Idiot Savant stacks up: https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/3siw35/i_tested_intelligence_idiot_savant_and_experience/ In short: want the most possible XP? Go 1 INT, take Idiot Savant. But even if you're at 10 INT, taking Idiot Savant will still offer you a meaningful increase in XP earned. coyo7e posted:I'm stnading in front of a fusion generator in the museum right now with 3 cores (100, 12, and 50 energy, respectively) and cannot figure out how to insert them. To be fair, I haven't tested it because I'm at work. It's possible that guy's just trolling everyone.

I'm really annoyed at how hard it is to make a town the way I want it: 1. That junkie old chick who I built a chair for now refuses to get out of it, making it impossible for me to move her chair into the deluxe ultra fortress I just made. 2. Said deluxe ultra fortress, while indeed badass complete with a junk wall and plenty of water, is bereft of the actual workshop table because apparently I can't move it from the crappy house it currently occupies. 3. Not that it matters because if I ever get attacked the "defenders" I've assigned to the super sweet guard posts on top of the deluxe ultra fortress are too busy getting stuck on the roof. 4. In spite of there being a clearly protected wall and a loving place for her Brahmin to eat, the drat trader refuses to stop there and keeps on walking through my fortress gates so she can hang out in front of the now empty house with the workshop in it. Also the junkie old chick never told me my dog's name.
