I've been getting saving errors in my PS4 version of Fallout 4 for the first time. I've played that game almost every month since its release and this is the first time that's happened. I've already tried deleting every single save I have and also rebuilding the database but it still happens on occasion. Also it looks like it just updated, the next month's worth of Creation Club?

I don't think they would announce any new Wolfenstein stuff so soon, didn't Wolfenstein 2 sell below expectations?

Like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, the story just kinda...ends right when you're expecting things to really get started. Pretty clear sign they're planning on a sequel - or at least were planning on one.

Cutting content is fine, just axing the third act entirely isn't.

I just found a new location in New Vegas, 9 playthroughs deep. Goddamn.frajaq posted:I don't think they would announce any new Wolfenstein stuff so soon, didn't Wolfenstein 2 sell below expectations? It sold better than Prey which is getting DLC so who knows. Bethesda-Zenimax are private not shareholder driven so they can be a little hard to predict/are more free to give series room to grow/are more likely to be cool with a game being profitable but not a smash hit. I'd say a Wolf 3 announcement is unlikely more because Bethesda has had very short windows between announcement and launch since Skyrim and Wolf 2 only came out 6 months ago. If we haven't heard anything by e3 2020 I'd start to worry.

I remember the Grub and Gulp because it's near a Legion assassin spawn point and one time one of the merchants there armed himself with a Shishkabob, in the grand tradition of Bethesda NPCs grabbing random crap and joining the fight.

IIRC at least one patch affected the assassin squads, as well as a number of community-released bugfixes.

It was an ending - the dangling plot threads were gathered up and tied into one of three little bows. I didn't say it was a satisfying ending, but it was an ending. On the topic of Fallout: Why oh why are Curie and Danse using their fists and a pipe pistol, respectively, instead of their default weapons? I even installed a mod to make their weapons get progressively better over time so there should be no reason for them to ever scavenge poo poo or run out of their special magic companion ammo.

I've only ever used companions once, when I was being completionist and doing all of their subquests. Every other time I give it a try it lasts exactly until dogmeat gets me killed by standing in a doorway, or danse pushes me out of cover, or any number of other physics hangups that make me send them all to a far away settlement never to be seen again. From my one companion run I do seem to recall Curie loving to punch things, regardless of weapon status

wtf I'm playing Fallout 3/NV again after a long rear end time and reminded/realized there's a Notes section in the Pip-boy just for minor notes/messages/details why the gently caress did Bethesda get rid of this very simple but useful feature for F4 ? I hated how the fuckloads of logs/notes just cluttered my inventory did I miss an option somewhere that activated this poo poo?

No. Also, I miss the mod from Skyrim that showed which documents have been read, unread and are new. So I can more easily differentiate between the 14 notes I have called 'Note' and help me find whatever random slip of paper I just picked up from a corpse without having to sort through 1300 entries.

It's been so long I don't remember what the unmodded UI looks like any more but I don't think it did. SkyUI added so much functionality and made it so much easier to use on a PC I can't imagine ever going without it.

Skyrim's UI is abysmal even for something designed to be used with a controller. And of course it wasn't updated at all when the remastered edition came out because then Bethesda might have had to do some bugfixing.

EG: Synth Curie can use any weapon that uses Fusion Cells and never run out of ammo. This is a vanilla thing. I think playing in Survival Mode might make the magic companion ammo non-infinite, in which case a mod called "Survival Options" fixes it...I think.

No, it's still there but it's not like, infinite ammo of a certain type, it's an infinite ammo version of a certain weapon; Preston will never run out of fusion cells for his laser musket, but that doesn't mean he'll use a laser rifle if you don't also give him ammo (or even a different laser musket that you've modded). This means barring the ridiculous ways you can turn any robot into an unstoppable death machine, the best combat companion is your second-in-command from Nuka World, since he has the only halfway decent default weapon.

I liked Horizon's take where you can craft them better companion specific weapons with infinite ammo. That was a cool thing to work towards I found.

I'm not sure what would be a fair balance though. I got a mod that gave companions always infinite ammo and gave Nick the alien blaster and that was equally as dumb. I guess you could carefully moderate your gameplay and only give them weapons you deem fair, but that hardly seems like fun.

You are correct, in which case I admit that I didn't load up the game to check until after I posted. I'm still dealing with the problem where Curie and Danse have both independently decided that their default weapons, which have received upgrades via script from a neat mod which levels up companion weapons, are not good enough. Clearly, their fists and a lovely pipe pistol taken from a dead raider are better solutions! I can't loving figure out why they are being dumb about this, either. I've spotted a couple mods that supposedly fix Curie, at least, but they don't work. I can make her equip and draw her rifle, and I can force Danse into doing the same through console commands, but as soon as we get into combat out come the lovely pipe pistol and dainty French fists. counterfeitsaint posted:I'm not sure what would be a fair balance though.

IMO a fair balance would be that companions get infinite ammo matching that of their default weapon, so Curie and Danse would have infinite ammo for laser and plasma weapons, Nick would have infinite...either .38 or .45, etc.
