Ironslave posted:They also have an open recruitment process with the Wastelanders, who--given their location and general troubles--probably don't find it hard to see the guys exterminating feral ghouls and cannibal super mutants and psychotic raiders as bad, their policy on eradicating non-human sentients and technology-hoarding notwithstanding. They also seem to have a whole indoctrination process where people are already writing the illustrious Legend of Herr Maxson's youth and his glorious dream of uniting mankind under his gentle yet wrathful hand, so people who aren't too mutated from human and want to "Fight the Good Fight" will casually allow the same purge that Diamond City did of its previous ghoul population if it could mean better poo poo for them someday. They even almost have a stabbed-in-the-back myth going on with the previous elder's policy that only will take another generation before the outcasts say Lyons nearly killed the Brotherhood by caring about outsiders! Oh gently caress, we need to also go back to DC just to see if ol' Three Dog is still brown nosing the Brotherhood post Lyons. They probably had him carted off and killed, but you know. We need to find his shallow grave and a holodisk of him getting killed mid howl. Crabtree fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Nov 24, 2015 |

I'd prefer if he was still around, a broken shell of a man being forced to broadcast Maxson's truth. This is Three-Dog <half hearted howl>, telling the truth, no matter how much it hurts <quiet sobs>

The real twist would have been learning that your son was Three Dog and he was murdered a while back in the DC Wasteland with Abraham Lincoln's rifle.

I am experiencing some hardcore chugging in Boston proper. Anytime I try to move my sightline around it just chops and stops for a while until it loads whatever it's trying to load. I don't have any issues inside buildings or in the wasteland outside Boston, but inside the city it's almost unplayable. Any ideas?

Having fun with melee. Early in the game against ghouls in Lexington and Cambridge I was having trouble with ammo so I pulled out my tire iron and never went back. Is it true that the final perk of Big Leagues is bugged?

I just met X6 after fast traveling, even though Danse was my current companion and X6 was parked at the Castle. He took out a sentry bot solo and walked on. Not sure how or why he was there, but pretty cool all the same.

I guess the DLC will take place after the end of the main quest? The stuff you do with / to the Institute seems like it might be hard to account for. Although if the DLC is a totally separate location, they could just ignore the MQ wholesale (that would be for the better, definitely).MisterBibs posted:The West Coast is done as a story setting, and was done as a story setting even before New Vegas came around.

I really enjoy Preston as a character. He just tearfully told me how he was ready to die after the collapse of the Minutemen, not by suicide but by lack of self-preservation. I then failed to sleep with him but right as he was rejecting me a deathclaw attacked Starlight and he said "well, we ought to get back to it." The deathclaw exploded because of bloody mess.

This game is a lot like that scene in "Go West" with Groucho Marx shouting "timbers! timbers!". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlVoZgM4fgI Is a game that is both losing steam and burning everything in the genre to continue forward and fast. You don't notice, until it ends, that is not really a good game.

I've run into a really frustrating situation. The game ran buttery smooth, until I decided to try and install some mods. Nothing major, just wanted to do the craftable ammo mod and that extra menu mod that lets you turn off movies with one click. Launched the game, and now it's running around 30 fps or less, whereas before I was getting 60. Game takes longer to load and the mouse moves sluggishly too. Uninstalled the mods, same deal. Reset cfgs, same deal. Thought, maybe it's a coincidence, and something got broken in my system. Reinstalled drivers, the game, everything, same loving issue. It's drat near unplayable now. Loaded some other graphic intense games and they all play fine, so it doesn't look like my hardware is dying. Anyone have any ideas?

It's been a long time, but for whoever was asking about gatling lasers - you can definitely get them as a random drop from pretty much anything. I got one that does bleed damage from a ghoul recently. It also shreds pretty much everything even worse than the wounding shotgun.Lollerich posted:It's probably a copyright violation to put assets from other games in a mod. There's no problem with it as long as there's permission along the way (like the Witcher armor sets in Skyrim mods). It seems a little odd considering Bethesda owns the rights to the entire franchise, including Fallout 1 and 2. Maybe some weirdness with wherever the sound assets came from.

Melted_Igloo posted:I play on an old 1TB hard drive (which was pretty fast for its time) RBA Starblade posted:Got the game onto my ssd, if anything the load time seems worse now. Oh well. ONE WEIRD TIP TO IMPROVE YOUR LOADING TIMES Don't play in Fullscreen with ingame vsync! Use Borderless Windowed, or remove vsync/uncap framerate some other way. For some reason switching from fullscreen to Borderless Windowed reduced my loading times from 60 seconds to under 20. There might be other bugs with uncapped framerates/vsync off, but I haven't noticed any major bugs with playing in Borderless Windowed mode.
