as someone that's only just managed to learn how to build a shack in FO4, how elaborate can you make your CAMP in FO76? and if the public server boots your CAMP and you have to place it again, what happens to all the things you already built up? Do you get refunded the materials?

I can't really find a reliable answer on the internet, so I figured I might as well ask here: since a private world in FO76 goes poof if nobody's in it after about 10 minutes or something, does that mean the new private world that gets created when you come back is restocked with enemies and junk and drops?

Is anyone here familiar with the "Real Time Settler" mod for New Vegas? I was told that this was the inspiration for FO4's settlements so I was wondering if someone here has ever played with it.

The thing about whatever it is they did to New Vegas is that if Todd/Bethesda really did hate it, it wouldn't have come up at all.

Bumhead posted:Is it just that it’s the most recent Fallout that isn’t 76? I would say that's a big part of it. All the other Fallouts require some babying to run out of the box. I personally consider 4 to be my favorite, but mostly because of the settlement system, which isn't necessarily a Fallout-specific concept, as well as the looter-shooter-ness of it, which not everyone regards as a positive.

Cojawfee posted:Remaster FO3/NV or something. Or Remaster 1 and 2. It's crazy that there's all this hubub about the show and all they have to show for it game wise is to promote a game from nearly 9 years ago because no one wants to touch 76. yeah there's definitely value in putting out a re-release of 3 and NV even if it's just "this supports modern OSes now" and getting them on the Switch and getting them on the PS4 / PS5; current gen Xboxes can play 3/NV for the 360 via back-compat, but since 3/NV originally came out for the PS3, there's no way to play them now on Sony consoles except via their streaming service poo poo, doesn't Microsoft own all of this now? They should get the guys who did the Diablo 2 remaster to work their magic on Fallout 1 / 2

for fellow PS5 enjoyers: the version of FO4 you have installed is going to be the PS4 version, and it's going to have an update, but that's not the next-gen update, and is probably just the new Creator Club content and bugfixes you want to go to the PS Store and get your free PS5 update, download that instead, and it's going to be a 56 GB install

FWIW mods on the Playstation still seem to work, as far as I can tell, and acknowledging that the mod framework on consoles is very limited in particular, I downloaded one that skips the pre-war prologue and starts the game just as you leave the cryo chamber. So you still have to go through Vault 111, but it cuts out some of the stuff we've seen before

Fallout 4: it should be possible to progress some of the way into the game without contacting Preston Garvey, right? I'm trying out Survival, and I did not want to take my chances on the sequence with the Deathclaw until I had some levels under my belt. I found that I was able to access Sanctuary's workshop and build items, which should mean that as long as I can scrounge the parts, I can put up a settler beacon, start attracting people, and build-up Sanctuary without ever having lead Garvey back to it? and then Red Rocket can similarly be unlocked and developed all by myself? I'm not going to avoid Concord forever, just until I'm a bit more confident in my ability to survive.

Flesh Forge posted:you can complete the game without ever speaking to preston & company, you can just leave them inside the museum forever Tankbuster posted:you can play the entire game without contacting the minutemen or the brotherhood. oh poo poo lmao that's impressively open-ended. thank you ___ here's another question: from a benefit-to-the-player standpoint, what is the utility of a built-up settlement? - a safe place to sleep - a source of fresh water - once you get settlers in and they can do some farming, a source of edible food - storage space - crafting stations those seem to be the low-hanging fruit as I understand it, later on you'll be able to send out settlers to gather scrap for you, and you can set up shops for armor and weapons, but I think that's only something you can do much later, because it requires significant materials and some higher-level perks, yes? anything else?

FO76: 1. I am trying my strategy of "ignore the main quest and just gently caress around and explore", and I was doing some research, and it seems like the entire zone of The Forest is level 1-10, but there's no defined specific level within the zone. Does that level adjust to mine as I walk into a point-of-interest, but caps out at 10? 2. is there a spot that I can use as a base-of-operations that I wouldn't need to use a CAMP on? Like, something with stash access, a bed, maybe a crafting station or two?

I have to admit I'm a little intimidated by all this talk of endgame weapons (?) and optimization. When do I have to start worrying about such things as opposed to just loving around and picking out what's cool? I do understand that SPECIAL points and perks can be changed rather freely.

it does seem like acting like a total packrat and selling a bunch of junk to hit a critical mass of caps is how you really turn the game around. In my FO3 run it's not really that much of a choice to ask for payment before doing a quest because 100 caps as a reward is just a speedbump when you can loot 50 caps worth of tin cans from the place you were going to do the quest anyway if anything the bigger obstacle is the vendor running out of caps for you

JBP posted:Yeah I guess what I mean is do the settlements work on survival mode? Like it seems pretty fast travel dependent. what do you mean by "work"? the settlements are fully functional in survival mode, in that you can build things, and you can attract settlers, and you want to provide food and water to the settlers, and the excess food and water will be deposited into the settlement's workshop, which you can make use of in survival; and the more advanced settlement perks let you build out stores/market stalls, which you can make use of

henpod posted:Started fallout 4 on ps5, and man, I am overwhelmed by the sheer amount of content. It seems I am almost constantly collecting junk and animal bits, taking them to my base at the gas station, crafting, going back out there, coming back, and so on. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but I easily get distracted by busywork and was wondering how much of that is really necessary. Distress signals, radio signals, etc, are all taking a lot of time. you don't have to build up settlements, and especially if you're not playing on Survival mode. There are some benefits to doing so, but for the most part people who engage with the system do so because they like it for its own sake essentially you can pick a spot, like Sanctuary, and then use its Workshop as an infinitely large and safe storage room, and Fast Travel back to it whenever you want to deposit / withdraw items that you left off if you're not building up settlements, then the need to scoop up every last bit of junk is lessened by quite a bit, since then the main use for it would be to engage with crafting if you're also not crafting either, then you don't even need to do that basically, the game can be played on a spectrum of vacuuming every site dry and building a dragon's hoard of garbage on one end, and a super-lean survivalist mode of "only use what you can carry, nothing gets stored" on the other end, and you're free to engage with it however much you want in either direction
