i've said it before in this thread, but the whole liberty prime section bugged out like 5 times for me, forcing me to restart it repeatedly because this dumb as poo poo robot kept going into the ocean or decided to just stop moving. gently caress liberty prime.

I for one can not wait for Todd Howard to read this thread and immediately excuse himself from game production for the rest of time. This thread is EXACTLY the "kind of stuff" that makes people retire....



But really, has the dialogue wheel in its current iteration been confirmed for P.C. as well? I mean even the spacial placement of the options is just a mapping of a controller's ab/yx squarecircle/whatever so surely they'd at least change that for P.C, right? Right???

In so far as the conversation ending if you walk your character far enough way (you can still move about while in conversation mode), and that you can just never start a conversation, but pull out a gun and shoot the person in the head, yes. There are not "Walk Away" and "Shoot them in the head" conversation options directly.

all the gunplay they showed were cuts of vats kills or short 5 second clips of shooting at people running towards them/standing still. i'm hoping they've improved the shooting but they haven't released any videos that makes it look any better than fo3/nv.

Yeah, the only time that it really felt like they nailed it that I remember was with the slave girl. You have the option of freeing her or handing her a knife and telling her to take her destiny into her own hands and shank the slaver.

if i remember right, if you have her kill the slaver to gain her freedom she goes evil and crazy not even 10 seconds after.

See this is the kind of writing that is simply beyond Bethesda. The problem is a karma system treats the player like an idiot - do good thing get good outcome *beep boop* guaranteed every time. Removes all possibility or motive for interesting writing. Each karma check is a wasted story-telling opportunity. Which is why it exists in the first place - to make the game easier to write and hence cheaper to produce.

the having her kill the slaver was the evil option. you can just free her and she leaves not crazy and evil and her mom thanks you.

the courier probably doesn't remember the divide because he never actually entered the town proper, just the ncr outpost where they dropped poo poo off on occasion. it was just a hole in the wall that suddenly became impossible to pass at some point and they didn't really think much of it afterwards.

is anyone else having trouble with the crosshairs/iron sites not aligning with each other? its weird because the bullets hit where the iron sites are aiming even though they're like half an inch to the right of the center of the screen.

e:nm restarting the game fixed it.

Mod the rifle for .50 caliber and put a pistol grip on it? Stronger than that probably not, have to look for legendary drops.

thats a bummer. i wish there were more guns in this game.
