Mods on PS4 are not happening. Apparently Sony is not playing ball. So much for Sony being "for the players."

Like, even the traditional 'nameless faceless prisoner' bethesda start is a little more believable. If anything they should have gone the SOMA route and had the player characters spring fully formed from a cloning tank in an institute facility someplace, giving them an immediate interest in uncovering the truth about the institute and their own past

Speaking of trophies, gently caress whoever decided getting 100,000 tickets in the Nuka Arcade was a good idea for one. The happiness trophy is nothing compared to that.

Just started the game, but based on the prologue (military background, kidnapped kid) I've decided to approach problems as Liam Neeson in Taken. So, icing people is no concern.

Hay guys, about a million pages ago someone posted a really-real world gun review of a Fallout Combat Shotgun and I can't for the life of me find it - can anyone help?

I tried sitting around w/ a one person colony for an hour and nothing happened. If I could reliably find the dog salesman, I could get it but nothing doing. The ticket one is stupid, but with the exploding SMG that Cricket sells outside Diamond City, you can make it happen. Also Preston Garvey is STILL bugged, I should be at a million affinity with him but he won't say poo poo.

If I could reliably find the dog salesman, I could get it but nothing doing. Does it have to be the Commonwealth dog salesman? There's one in the Far Harbor DLC, I forget exactly where, but you can buy dogs, wolves  or mutant hounds  . Not sure if I could send any of those back to the mainland, though. Might have to check... I could use a bunch of wolves at my gang settlements.

And there goes the last significant thing I had to look forward to in this game. I don't suppose Bethesda is going to offer any compensation for dropping a promised feature because they couldn't be assed to think about poo poo like this before they promised us mods, either.

Also cool is how if you try to tell Preston "no, I'm not going to take a minigun and burn down all these people; I don't know them, I don't know you, I'm a random-rear end lady with zero qualifications for this suicide mission, and you already owe me for clearing the building" then the game just tells you you're an rear end in a top hat

The randos are dirty and have scrap metal on them, thus making them assholes.

That...is a premise that is 100x better than OMG MAH BAYBAY And think about the "twist" being that you're an actual clone of the "Shaun" character substitute, but that until that point you believe you are a synth rather than a clone. Nice.

You're born in the institute, although you don't even know that's what it is since you're just a slave who is mistreated and rudely ordered about. You escape out into the commonwealth, find all these groups like the brotherhood and the railroad, and eventually figure out that you're one of these synths that everyone is talking about. At this point the choice to try to free the other synths via the railroad becomes meaningful, or the choice to destroy the institute or possibly take it over.

It also makes the Brotherhood even more nuanced or lets Bethesda frame them as pure antagonists from the player perspective.

I liked the Shaun reveal. I also like that you automatically start wearing a wedding ring but no romanceable NPC comments on it. "Huh, a ring over there...you're a lefty?"

Rumor has it that Sony wanted Bethesda to QA all mods submitted because of frequent crashes. I could add a joke here but it's far too obvious.

I can kinda see that, though. A ring is something you find in ruins and melt down to make your lovely radioactive life better. It has probably lost its DeNukaBeers-driven meaning by the time two centuries has passed after the war.

I think there's enough of a 1950s holdover that people know what -marriage- is. But maybe 2070 was a post-racial society, which is why your character can be a bisexual fillipino and appeal to debached royalty, wasteland bandits and futuristic cyberpunks. Does anyone have a link to the full Bottle & Cappy park safety cartoon? Every link I find is just the trailer.

You're playing as a war veteran from a time when part of a soldier's job was to dome Canadian civilians on camera for the news and ship hippies to internment camps to be science experiments. Frankly I'm surprised they don't play a voice clip in the first raider fight of the character going "yeah! hell yeah! Eat poo poo! gently caress! yeah!"

I just always figured that outside of the snapshot of you're oh-so perfect suburban life right before the bombs dropped, pre-war America wasn't really all that much better to live in than after the Great War. You basically would have crime and rioting out of control, political crackdowns, some super flu wiping everyone out (what the FEV was originally intended to cure), food and energy shortages everywhere, and every seemingly mundane company is actually some secret charnal house of workplace fatalities. Then just kind of fill in your mind how much that affected your character.

Hell, there was a drug dealer *two houses away from you* in Sanctuary Hills.

Haven't played since Far Harbor as I was waiting for the rest of the DLC to drop so modding would stabilise, and drat the amount of real estate they give you in Vault 88 is actually slightly intimidating. Should I be trying to spread into this as much as I can? Don't have any dwellers yet so I dont know what sort of things the overseer is going to have me build.
