I'm going to have serious trouble waiting till tomorrow to play it.

 

[schaft0620]

So the FALLOUT 4: ULTIMATE DWELLER'S SURVIVAL GUIDE release date changed to the 13th. Bollocks and fuck.

My guide is ready for pickup from Best Buy, they even price matched Amazon on the collectors edition Hardcover $23.

 

[BFIB]

Went XBox One, but might be returning it to Amazon and going up to Target and getting it for PS4.

Was really hoping there wouldn't be that big of a gap. The drops to zero FPS is really disappointing.

 

[Cdgilbert]

FlyVPN worked for me. Changed to Australia store.

I can't believe I forgot about price match, now i've got to wait until the 18th for my Hardcover Collectors guide to get here from Amazon.

 

[NegroNinja]

Is this a good build to start with? I plan to use VATS a lot along with stealth, wide range of weapons including a little bit of melee. I know lock picking and hacking is a must as well. Any tips are appreciated.

Quoting for new page.

Been in the character creator for an hour now. Editing one character is hard enough for me, now I have to edit both! Almost done though lol and I can finally start playing for reals

Try vpnunlimited. Worked fine for me

It's really dumbfounding how badly optimized the XBO version seems.

I dont wanna pay for it

 

[Pat]

Anyone having luck with a VPN?

WorldVPN works (with the free trial).

 

[Bod]

those using a VPN are you just connecting to a Aus/NZ server and logging into steam or are you changing the store location or any other work arounds?

i just used the vpn, all my steam settings were left as normal.

List of all names...

goddamn it Bethesda... it doesn't have the name I was gonna use... :*(

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Codsworth/recognized_names

 

[GReeeeN]

for someone that has the game on console, what button do you need to press to access workshop?, on PC I think one of the controls glitched out because it says "hold [playerPOV] to access workshop.

Also, how do you assign roles to the people?

 

[GashPrex]

Can somebody explain the purposes of settlements?

 

[ANDS]

Uhm. Is Justin Roiland the DJ? Of Rick & Morty fame? If that's a spoiler for speculation I'll tag it.

Hahaha it has fuckface though. So going to use that now.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I'll ask again. How do I scrap Junk ?

 

[TheSlySoul]

You shouldn't have a problem.

Good news, was hoping it did not have a learning curve. I assume agility is good since you can dodge more?
Edit: Gonna call myself Fuckface.

 

[MattyG]

So once the game launches, I leave it open and switch Steam to offline mode? Or I exit the game and switch to offline?

 

[Evil Beaver]

I'll ask again. How do I scrap Junk ?

I think you have to take it back to a workbench or other area in your settlement

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

Been in the character creator for an hour now. Editing one character is hard enough for me, now I have to edit both! Almost done though lol and I can finally start playing for reals

You need to edit both the male and female character's? I thought the one you didn't pick would just keep the default settings.

 

[artsi]

I can have not hideous people in my Fallout character editor? Who are you Bethesda and what did you do with the previous one?!

 

[Lakitu]

I'll ask again. How do I scrap Junk ?

I saw on a stream that they just dropped it then while in 'building mode/zone' they could scrap it. Don't know if that helps.

They are all good in different ways but I always find luck to be the best stat

I am sorry if this has been answered 1 million times but, is Fuckface a real name that works?

 

[Myggen]

Yeah, I started to watch it until they said it was some main quest content from around level 15.

There's no story spoilers in the QL.

 

[Yu Narukami]

I'll ask again. How do I scrap Junk ?

Its used automatically when you craft something. Source: I have the game since Saturday.

 

[neoism]

Pretty sure that's not a complete list.

its was taken from this
soo most likely

Bethesda said there were 1,000, but I don't see the other 76.

Rounding error? Or my mistake?

There are male and female versions of each name. Example:

Sound\Voice\Fallout4.esm\RobotMrHandy\Fuckface_F.fuz4
Sound\Voice\Fallout4.esm\RobotMrHandy\Fuckface_M.fuz0

Will go high luck and agility then.
Figures it would be best to be able to run.

What do you mean exactly with that ? I don't follow.

I saw on a stream that they just dropped it then while in 'building mode/zone' they could scrap it. Don't know if that helps.

This can't be how it's intended though, can it ?

Its used automatically when you craft something. Source: I have the game since Saturday.

Okay, I just need it in the inventory ?Good to know.

 

[Lord Phol]

Any good explanation on the difficulties and what survival entails in this game?

 

[Revolutionary]

You don't NEED to - I chose to. Sorry for the confusion.

 

[mossypne]

My Copy has arrived but taking a while to install!

 

[GhaleonEB]

lol. Will you be wearing them while playing? Will your family know its fallout time when they see the socks on?

Oh, it'll be Fallout time for a good while, so I don't want to wear them out / do laundry every day. I don't wear matching socks so that'll help them last longer, though.

 

[FlyinJ]

Has someone made a compass HUD on/off toggle mod? That thing ruins exploration, but I want all other HUD stuff

just exit the game and switch to offline mode

Do you get to choose first and surname or just one?

 

[RandomSeed]

Fuckface but no Meatbag? Come on...

 

[Stranya]

Could one of you kind souls please clarify how enemy scaling is handled? Thanks in advance.

 

[BondFancy]

Wooh! It has my name! Kinda surprising.

Doesn't have my name... my name isn't that weird Keith should be on there.

 

[CMojicaAce]

Can't wait to spent the first 2 hours customizing characters and trying to think of a name.

like always for me I will be there for an hour or two lol....

 

[Grassy]

I just got out of the vault, great intro to the game but I need to sleep and really get stuck into this in the morning. I can't wait to explore this world. The game looks great on PC Ultra settings too, really happy with it so far. No crashes in an hour and a half and the only bugs I've seen so far are a few radroaches

Here's my man:

Has someone made a compass HUD on/off toggle mod? That thing ruins exploration, but I want all other HUD stuff

You just have to edit your Fallout4prefs.ini file. Under [Interface] change bShowCompass=1 to 0. It's located in the Documents>My Games>Fallout4 folder.

 

[spyder_ur]

For the people who have played a bit and know Boston - how well/accurately is it represented (granted that it's post-nuclear)?

Are there a lot of landmarks featured? Does the geography make any sense?
