AgentJR posted:Also, I'm not sure if this is known yet but using the "command" function of Robotics Expert 3 and giving literally any command will make the target a temporary robot companion. Now I just need to find out if I can hack hostile robots when I'm still undetected by them. Actually, it's not temporary. They tend to get lost, but will follow you until you either deactivate them or someone destroys them. I had a sentry killbot following me around, spawning randomly in unexpected places, as I fast traveled, with often hilarious unintended (murderous) results. I don't know what the key to hacking a hostile robot is, but I have managed to pull it off several times. I'm yet to hack an assaultron though, even though I've pretty much sneaked up far enough to go up their arse without them noticing.

AgentJR posted:I really have to find a way to keep settlers from stealing my cool guns, even in the workshop they aren't safe and I made the mistake of arming everyone with different calibres of weaponry. Maybe I ought to just revert them all to .38 and just carry my piper rifle with me at all times. This is what I get for recruiting a bunch of kleptomaniacs (like myself). Wait a second - settlers will actually steal my items?! (So that's where my Jangles the Moon Monkey went, those fuckers!) Does this just include ones lying around and in the workshop, or also guns in chests? Since I genuinely have so many guns in my weapons locker that I doubt I'd notice if a couple went missing here and there; however I'm also enough of hoarder that I also don't want the settlers to actually have any of them, either!  (I might need them one day, after all! I only give the two guards decent guns and armour)

Star Guarded posted:Wow, high level settler attacks don't gently caress around. Ten super mutant overlords with miniguns and super sledges attacked Finch Farm. Finch farm, which had one turret, 5 food, 3 water, and the Finch family. I went there in power armor and any time I didn't use Jet I instantly died from all the minigun fire. I took every drug in the game, sprinted into the face of three overlords and critical hit them at point blank with my shotgun, then watched as the entire Finch family picked up miniguns and returned fire from their shack. I had one of these but I was in tricked out power armor so all the bullets were like rain.

If you label your favorite equipment with a hypen in front of it (like -10mm Pistol) they'll always appear at the top of the list.

I went toe to toe with a Legendary Alpha Deathclaw today. Before I power-fisted it to death, I took pretty much every combat related aid item/drug beforehand. Hearing my punchwoman scream RAWWRRRRR!!! in slow motion was both the coolest and most hilarious point of the game so far.

The drugs were mostly insurance, but 90% of my survival was the fact I snuck up on it and used all my banked criticals multiplied by a stupidly high sneak bonus. Come to think of it, I pretty much copied my skyrim build. You could backstab dragons with some crazy high 32x damage multiplier buglord fucked around with this message at 08:28 on Dec 4, 2015 |

You killed the only queen.

So i was doing the first institute quest, to find the rogue synth. Having to cross the waterworld-esque boat raider hideout thing. I did this quest in my power armor and fell off the boats and sunk to the bottom. The last save i have before that is like 30 mins back and i can't seem to get out of the water anywhere. I'm on ps4 so no console. Am i just screwed?

Hit the weirdest loving bug and I don't know if its some hidden thing I've never heard of or if Cait has hosed a playthrough up completely, but for some reason my adventure to booze with the Irishwoman has caused my 10 Agility character to permanently lose AP reserve from over 100 to down to 75. Is this something I'm just going to have to lose progress to avoid or what?

How else am I going to haul 6k concrete blocks around for my Junk Jet? Small poo poo like this is why I had a real gaming computer, but then I realize I don't buy enough games to make it worth it and a mac makes more sense for me anyway. I hate that consoles don't let me have the admin_console thingy. One thing I'd do that I wouldn't consider cheating at all is adding infinite carry weight. All carry weight does for me in games is delay me. I'll just stop what I'm doing and go to a vendor to dump it all off. Or, I'll find a place I can stash it. It's just a waste of my loving time to constantly worry about my carrying capacity. Stop making me care game devs.

I got tired of the theft problem so I made a 2 story cube building with no doors and just a fast travel point to get inside and made myself a room with all the crafting stations, storage containers for specific things and my comics/bobbleheads. I did make an escape route in the form of a stairway to the roof to jump off of. Spectacle Island is pretty dope.

They're also very horrible dogs and will pick up a bunch of lovely weapons from enemies you didn't want like 2 unmodded assault rifles or whatever and may switch to those for god knows what reason. I think I pioneered a new way for the game's programming to bug out and add withdraw effects to every booze bottle I drank while I have the party boy perk and shouldn't have that issue at all. What a way to make me stop playing your game until something hopefully patches it in March, beth.

Last time I tried fighting a legendary alpha deathclaw in melee it would grab my character, extend its claws, and then shove them into my soft skull causing it to shatter into a million pieces. Now come to think of it, I was at level 17 on very hard when I fought it so maybe I mistakenly interpreted that as an instant kill move when it was just my character being woefully unprepared. I just use mines to blow deathclaws legs off on my melee character instead.
