Harrow posted:Seriously, someone get Inon Zur some kind of award for his work on this game's soundtrack. This iteration of the main theme is just stupidly good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzvZE4BY0hY It's great, though it's one of my least favourite songs in the soundtrack. I really like "Of Green and Grey", "Standoff", and "The Last Mariner". I'm more of a fan of the Oblivion-style folkier stuff than the Skyrim-style bombastic film score bullshit. I'm in the minority for that probably, but Skyrim's soundtrack was just so loving generic.

I like the soundtrack in all the Bethesda games. I don't like that the sound files in Fallout 4 don't appear to be normally accesible through the folders like New Vegas' were. Somewhere I can download the whole thing?

Fallout 4 probably has the soundtrack that best captures the feel of the game so far though. It even has unique exploration tracks for the various overworld areas (I think)!

Noyemi K posted:Well there's your problem, you shouldn't even think about taking on the Mirelurk Queen until you have semiautomatic weapons that deal 60 damage/shot or automatic weapons that deal 20/shot. My Model 29 deals 120 damage per shot because I've got 3 ranks in gunslinger, 3 in rifleman, and kitted out weapons. Fight was a cakewalk and I hardly took damage because I could see the acid spit coming a mile away. I guess but Preston didn't exactly provide me with an excel spreadsheet to plan my assault. Granted, the fact that the trip to the castle was a harrowing running gun battle that sapped me dearly of resources was a hint. But hey he gave me the mission when I was like level 3 and I waited until level 9 or so to take it!

There's a mod that lets you jet pack infinitely and I'm probably going to download it because I was super excited for the jet pack and yeah it's underwhelming. I can at least get up high enough to get the explosive vent legs to gently caress people up but still... I can't even get to the roof of a 1 story building.

That reminds me, a major mod I want is upgradeable Power Armor gauntlets to include built in weaponry, like machine guns, auto cannons, rocket punches, and flamethrowers. Maybe a shoulder mounted rocket launcher. Moving around in Power Armor finally has a great, weighty feel, and it would be totally badass in first person view to throw out a gauntlet and see a small minigun attached shooting explosive rounds, or spraying liquid fire.

They took their huge budget and decided to make a generic film score, when films have completely different OST requirements than video games (and lately, I'd argue film scores have been slowly declining since the mid-70s with peaks here and there).

Starhawk64 posted:I kinda wished they had some more original songs for the radio. Like where's all the weird retrofuture 50s music to go with the weird retrofuture they have? Surely they would have written some new songs between the 1950s and 2077, don't tell me that the only thing future 50s people listened to was 100 year old music. I mean I guess you can chalk it up to only old records surviving but I think holotape music players were a thing and you still find working holotapes all over the place. I don't understand, do you think the games take place in 2077? And people have just been doing absolutely nothing since 1950?  Noyemi K posted:

You can get more settlers faster and send them to your main settlement to occupy tons of shops, and also setup caravans to get access to all the scrap stored in the different workshops around the map Also sanctuary stopped growing for me for some reason so I had to send in more people from other settlements which really helped

Danaru posted:Is there any major benefit of having multiple settlements as opposed to one big one? Other than being a place a plop artillery and having enough defense so they don't bother you, settlements are useless. Shops make almost no money, if you want to make money off towns manually harvest and sell your crops. Just pick one town, like the castle, and build all the things you want. Don't build it for "them" build it as a base for your self with a workshop and storage and everything you want laid out how you like. I like building the towns because it's fun, but there's basically no benefit. If you want good artillery coverage just "conquer" every town possible. Plop an artillery and a couple turrets then forget about it forever.

I don't really agree, having shopkeepers with more money than the diamond city vendors means one-stop shopping when you are unloading gear in between adventures. Also industrial water purifiers are basically money printing machines and glue farms make adhesives a non-issue. That said, there is a ton of wasted potential with settlements. old-timey newspaper gal fucked around with this message at 23:42 on Nov 18, 2015 |

Fallout has a 50's futurism design to it, which means just the 1950's but with robots and atomic stuff and everything else for some reason exactly stuck in the 50's. Also do you expect Bethesda to hire a bunch of musicians to come up with alternate-history musical genres spanning over a century of alt-history USA?

Checks in a modern RPG would serve only to detract from the protagonist's characterisation.

Hot Jam posted:You can put them on the rack, once you pick them up you have the bonus. Oh yeah for sure have shop keepers at your main base where you plan to do all your logistics. The question was if it's worth it to fully build out every town. Not really, the shops and stuff are there for you as the player's convenience so you can set up a one-stop crafting and shopping zone. But you only need one really. Yeah, town building is a really wasted potential. With a better interface and some more options/policies it could have been really cool. Let towns specialize in certain things and trade between them selves. Let your towns trade with the outside world for profit, so actually sell excess food and water. Set up workshops and industries, have some simple production chains. I mean you don't have to turn it into Anno 2287, but I'd have a blast setting up little economies and actually seeing the wasteland become more civilized over time due to my actions. It would also open up a lot of quest solutions and opportunities, things bigger than a lone wanderer. Maybe a whole town is starving, so you offer some of your network of town's surplus food (if you have a surplus that is). Assign patrols to areas to increase their safety, making hostile encounters there much more rare while making civilians more happy/productive. I'd love to actually slowly take back the wasteland, pacify and civilize it. gently caress, that could be the whole plot of a game. gently caress finding a stupid single baby, there's a whole commonwealth to save.

Dongicus posted:is tehre any speech checks inthis game besides "i'll do it.,............ for a price" garbage They are few and far between. For example, there's a robot-run outdoor mall you can find... All the Mr. Handys are glitched such they all 'accidentally' try to kill you. The coffee shop has a gas leak, so as soon as they turn on the burners, the shop explodes, etc. You can get a password that lets you initiate a firmware upgrade that fixes all that, but before you can, you have to get past the robo-supervisor. The only ways to do so are to kill him (and he's kind of a bastard at low levels...) or pass a speech check.

Dongicus posted:is tehre any speech checks inthis game besides "i'll do it.,............ for a price" garbage A handful. I've come across one that seemed like it would let me resolve a quest non-violently (with Covenant), but wasn't skilled enough to pass it. A few of them let you get passwords earlier than you normally would, but all of those are replicable by killing stuff since Bethesda will never lock a character out of doing everything in one playthrough. Mostly, however, it's just a way to get a larger number of caps.

I found it helped to setup Glue Farms and Scrap Mines at all the settlements. I target a settlement size of 12 and I plant 4 food of Corn, Mutfruit and Tomatoes. Then I build 9 nine scavengers benches. When the settlement hits 12 people I end up with 2 farmers, 1 Parts Runner (Local Leader 2) and 9 people working the Scrap mines. I never run out of scrap and with the links I just build 10 turrets at every base and they never get attacked. They just work all day generating scrap for me. I have basically enslaved half of the wasteland. It is pretty great.

I think the more likely answer is that you're meant to suspend disbelief a bit and just think of these as surviving songs from 2077 instead of "no music at all was made for 127 years." 2077 is the 50s in this universe. (Also of course the practical answer that it's easier to license old songs than to hire someone to write and perform new ones.)
