It's All Over But the Scavenging of Typewriters and Glue - The Fallout Thread

Hmm theres never enought mad science in a FO game, and that seems to be the perfect time to add such a gun! which reminds me of the tesla coil you can put on the power armour... I wish it was more actual Tesla, I remember it being a bit underwhelming.

 

If you want more radio stations in fallout 4 i highly reccomend old world radio boston and existence 2.0.
Also go check out west vault radio, its a fan made podcast set in the fallout universe.

I now have an entire settlement filled with mirelurks and melons.

 

Dang, thats quite an adventure! I ve heard a lot of people favour plasma weapons over lasers and the more conventional shell/bullet weapons due to sheer firepower. That glitch sure sounds like the chemicals were dulling your senses!

 

Today i wandered into the combat zone. The guards should have made me suspicious but after entering and reading the rules i thougt to give it a try. Looked interesting and i was about to order a drink. Maybe they noticed Strong or i misunderstood somethin *cough* but someone shouted all of a sudden 'who let him in?' and i thougt 'whom?' and then the bullets were raining in. cleaned the whole place up but what a ruckus about some cage fight i surely could have enjoyed after the rabid hordes of the wasteland.
Tried to get on the 'Trail' after that but just ran from one nest of gunners into another pack of mirelurks/raiders/whatnot.
Pulled back, leaving behind some smoked out buildings and rescuing my second t-45. Yay!
Returned to a broken up fight with some synths and discovered they were just the backing of a raiding party in a fight with (yup) raiders. Welcome Fusion cores.
While checking out the surrounding area, there was a trailer in sight. Who might live there on the hill? I dunno, but the inhabitant left a gun turret and a sentry bot behind... oh hell no.
Was having a hard time with the two or three assaultrons i stumbled upon, having a good idea how to handle them (if they don't vaporize me with their death-ray) but this fella felt overpowered. Until the Radscorpion draw his attention and after some beating from strong and my shotgun, had to cool down. Big relief i didn't get caught up in the explosion and scavenged the next bunch of FCs.
Not evenn near the epic journey of yours but i had quite a nice day. And earned some respect from my companion. Plus some near-monologue about sharing and killing. If nothing else, that alone was worth the blood.

 

It really sucks that my Fallout 4 copy finally decided to go kaputzky the other day.

Halfway through building my dream settlement and BAM, game dies and never starts up again. After my game died, I tried to reinstall it to see if that would fix it....Turns out the installer was corrupted as well.

Because of the fact that I might never be able to play FO4 ever again, I had no other choice....

 

Does anyone know about a mod that adds weapon durability to fallout 4?

 

It is indeed on PC.

 

1.: First character is whole gunner/sniper, collecting more powerful guns, it gets easier every day. And because of strong who pulls a lot of heat away, plus avoiding too well armed and crowded opposition.
2.: As i don't use PA until strong is my very best friend, i collected quite an amount of FCs again. Combined but unmodified (except found already modded parts) armor serves me well SINCE i started to pick the damage resist perks. Should have done that earlier as it seems to significantly improve my survivability. Learned something again!
Returning to long not visited places like corvega plant and other raider/gunner/ghoul areas, i managed to do some nice gun-runs with a silenced 10mil. Feels great to cut through them with that small piece in comparison to first attempts with heavy guns and much more pannicking and hiding.

edit: Super Mutant Suiciders who come in from a dead angle are a pain.
edit2: Strong frightens me a little. He does some maniacal damage with a spiked board, splatters even other super mutants all over the place. Myself has to rely on Critical damage and high powered rifles to have a similar effect. Scary guy, lucky me he's on my side.
edit3: raiders shouldn't use the fatman, but they do. Molerats shouldn't give me heartattacks when they pop out in front of me, but they do.
I met the Captain. Ironsides called out and i jumped to his side. YARR! Hillarious quest that i will fully enjoy. Nearly falling off the chair when Captain calls the first mate to use 'the accent'.

 

I remember that youtuber I used to watch for his playthru of FO4, he had listed the pros and cons of survival and... it was mostly negatives; putting weight on ammo was an interesting idea, but did they really keep the narcoleptic "save on sleep only" kind of thing? I cant remember all the details, but it really looked like a bad bunch of rotten ideas scrambled together into a nightmarish breakfast.

 

read a steam-review yesterday that included commentary on why survival is not a good mode. But presented an alternative, a mod that alters gunfight/damage to a degree that makes it hard but enjoyable. He failed to tell the name but eventually you'd like to search for that one insteaad of getting killed by stray dogs.

Btw, i came up with a thought about a week or two ago. Pre war society in Fallout was at least special i would say, but in fallout i got the picure of a totally corrupt and broken business sector at least. There are so many companies that do weird, unfunctional and illegal stuff. Dumping waste, smuggling, murder... maybe i got it wrong but most companies that offer some recordings from mid-late 2077, seem rotten to the core. I asked myself how they managed to get ANYthing done properly at all (hallucigen i.E.). Do i get it wrong or has the presentation of pre war States become far worse compared to earlier fallout?

@Jonesy Campsite mod, and a lot of damage mods.

 

I hate how you cant take any dlc companions back to the mojave in new vegas.

 

So Jonesy, is Nuka World worth the money?
