MacCready's companion perk, it gives you a 2000% aim bonus to vats head shots. (It's bugged)

I'm at the point where I've been working with the Institute, but refused to kill Railroad, and at the same time held back a Brotherhood of Steel attack. They somehow turned hostile on me the second I relayed to the Mass Fusion building, and I was like, wtf? I felt really bad having to kill Paladin Brandis (whom I talked out of exile) and Scribe Haylen, and I haven't been to see Danse yet after I left him at the bunker (I talked Maxson out of killing him earlier). I even went and rebuilt Liberty Prime, and BoS just immediately decided I'm their enemy. Ultimately I probably would've gone against them anyway, but I would've liked to spare at least Haylen, since she didn't appear all that gung-ho after all.

Unfortunately the choices pretty much amount to "side with one faction and kill the rest" and it's pretty unsatisfying whatever you choose. It's stupid that they didn't allow some more diplomatic options.

Yeah, that is a known bug with the area around Monsignor Plaza. There are a few workarounds if you are on PC: http://forums.bethsoft.com/topic/1546438-fallout-4-crash-in-specific-area/

Or is there something more than curing her of her psycho addiction with some 200 year old machine instead of just... going to the drat doc? Dude, I haven't even done (or even recruited her) and know that she tells you that she's been using so much for so long that the docs can't get rid of her addiction like most others.

Synonamess Botch posted:Why do mentats exist in this game? Like there are no int checks and I can't boost my stats so I can unlock terminals or whatever cause it's locked behind a perk so why would I ever want to raise my int? serious question Apart from grape mentats, you can make psychotats, which stack with psychobuff and psycho to give a 75% damage boost, 8 minutes each for psychotats and psychobuff and 2 minutes for the psycho

Level 61, sneak, sniper and rifle perks maxed, one-shotting deathclaws with the Overseer's combat rifle, I think I'm finally ready to visit Diamond City and do the main quest I've been putting off for the past 90 hours. Pretty sure there isn't anything out there left for me to explore.

Well I found in my latest session that my hypothesis about wearing 50% fall damage reduction armor pads on both legs was correct. It was hilarious just jumping off the top of a 20 story building and landing on the ground with not even a single scratch on me.

Internet Kraken posted:The only reason INT is "useless" as a stat is because idiot savant exists. If you aren't skilling that then high int is actually pretty nice for leveling faster. Even with 10 INT idiot savant has a noticeable effect. Idiot savant and science! are both basically essential in every build. One for the massive xp boost and the other for infinite money by making the giant gently caress off water purifiers.

Make jet. Sell guns. Always dump your stuff in one area, like the house in diamond city near all the vendors, put on charisma clothing and pop grape mentats. You'll make thousands. Or do it in your own town with your own vendors.

The only way to do it is to make a dumb city that is basically nothing but level 3 stores, so it's really gimmicky and stupid.

The minuteman plot is the same thing just shooting other dudes so really do whatever. but if you wanted to literally be a minuteman I guess just go the rifleman perks and use the musket all day every day

One farmer with 6 mutfruit, the other 5 in the top-tier medical stands, 2 water pumps, loads of turrets, make an art walk with a hundred yards of wall covered with cat pics, not too difficult

If you're planning on doing a lot with settlements, make sure you can get Science! and local leader easily so that you can unlock everything you can build. Filthy Hans posted:https://www.reddit.com/r/falloutsettlements/comments/3ub076/fallout_4_benevolent_leader_trophy_fast_and_easy/ the more ~optimal~ way to do it would be to import food from another settlement. then you can have every settler in the city at a surgery center.

So I tricked out a room in the Castle for my bedroom, but only about half of the wall lights that I put up are active. They're the ones closest to the door, which is closest to the power conduits that ruin the length of the hallways. I've got enough power hooked up to them I'm fairly sure, is there another trick to getting lights powered? The two ceiling fans I put up work fine.

Zephyrine posted:Personally I feel as if fast travel made Bethesda games feel smaller. The island of Morrowind felt larger than any Bethesda game that came after it. What's funny is if you play Morrowind today and get rid of the fog, all of the settlements have dwemer, daedric, or otherwise general dungeons less than twenty yards away. In fact just about everything is 20 yards or less away from something else. Morrowind was really compact

Volkerball posted:41 is the absolute max you can hit with summer shorts, 4 pieces of sharp armor, and charisma boosting hat and glasses, plus all the drugs. Drugs don't actually last long enough to get you any settlers unless you just stand around doing them all game day or do something equally tedious, though.

You send your settlers from one settlement to others when you pop the drugs. That's what I do for my supply depot, when I need more provisoners I pop some mentats, down a beer, dust off my mayor suit and tell the excess at abernathy's farm to hike it to the drive in.

I've sometimes used artillery but it tends to miss what I want to use it on. I also had a legendary I had to abandon looting because I had thrown four artillery beacons at him and the area became stuck in perpetual artillery bombardment that never stopped. BenRGamer posted:What's funny is if you play Morrowind today and get rid of the fog, all of the settlements have dwemer, daedric, or otherwise general dungeons less than twenty yards away. The complete absences of quest beacons made me wonder how I found anything in that game. You could have one quest like "north east of Hla Oad" and the location would be on an island outside of Khuul and somehow I would still find it with those directions and some ancient vault in a cave filled with gold, gems, a massive shield and some golden saints on the way. What a lot of developers seen unable to grasp is that distance in a game is measured in time not in game distance If it takes 60 seconds to fly from point A to point B with for example a flying mount then the distance is 60 seconds. If the same distance took 5 minutes to cross on foot then the distance was five times as long and the world that many times bigger. In Morrowind it could easily take an hour or two to do a quest due to all the exploration. "something is wrong at the sothril farm. The farm is to the west of here. Follow the river to the sign and then head north until you reach the mountains" "Oh thank the nine you showed up. My daughter went missing while visiting the family crypt and I fear for her. The crypt is located along the road to Suran" Then the crypt would be cursed by some ghost who could only be killed with the magic mcguffing that you had to get from the vampire lord on some island in Sheogorad. while in Fallout 4 you can do 5 quests in an hour with ease just by fast travelling between buildings and clearing them out for the tenth time. Skyrim had a lot of the same with generic bandit dens, giant camps and dragon nests to clear.
