Fallout 4 |OT| Atom Bomb Baby

So thrilled that Bethesda included "Assface" but no variation of "Shawn."

I suppose it's a good thing I was going to roll a female character for the first go around anyway, but it still would've been nice for when I do make another character.

A glaring oversight when the game is set in Boston with a large Irish heritage.
 
Right at the top of the name list it says that it's incomplete. Someone on Reddit with the game started making a list a few days ago and there's names on his list that aren't on this one. I have a feeling "Shawn" and "Kyle" work.
 
Couple of non-spoiler stuff from very early in the game:

-The extra SPECIAL book, which grants you a bonus SPECIAL stat is in your house AFTER the tutorial, under the drawer.

-There is +charisma gear (already at +3 and haven't have left the initial town yet). So that makes charisma checks way easier, if you know they will happen / reload.

-It seems some advanced mods (like tracking targeting, electro stun baton etc) require "Gun Nut" AND "Science". >_>

-Playing on Ultra, it runs uber smoothly, and quick load time is <2 seconds from an SSD. The game also look very nice to me.

-You don't need to "scrap" your junk items. E.g. A broom is automatically considered to be "(2) Wood".

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

I like my MC.

I couldn't get the women to look anything special tho.
 
Game looks way better in person than in screenshots, at least at max settings on PC. Thought the game looked pretty shitty in all the preview stuff. It won't be winning any graphics awards, but it's not a bad looking game at all, either.

Gotta head to work, sadly, so didn't get to dive in too deep yet. But, the opening is definitely better than F3.
 
Man the steam controller support is ass.

I have a steam controller with all PC inputs yet for some reason it defaults to xbox controller.
 
That's what I'm thinking but I wouldn't be surprised if they slapped another £5 on top of that like they do with some big titles. Bloodborne was £55 I think.

It's going to be £39.99 in Sainsbury's. I'll pick it up from there first thing tomorrow morning.
 
If you type in any name into google translate and choose the country where the name is from it will perfectly pronounce any name. Its a brilliant tech.

That would remove the need to manually add names in they way they have done it.

Its probably difficult to build from scratch and too expensive to buy from google though.
 
Uhhhhhhh my character is supposed to unequip the power armor if I just unequip the torso and other power armor parts in pip-boy, right?

These fucking bugs, man

??? I don't want to spend the rest of the game with the power armor UI, it's terrible

Think I'll just do the same. Just tagging along with a friend to a midnight launch tonight, no way I'm paying £50 for it, especially with the euro/sterling exchange rate at the minute.. insanely high price.
 
The ways in which they ignore the advancements and improvements Obsidian made is really disappointing. Especially no hardcore mode and no need for doctor's bags. And the fact that your guns don't break down anymore but they still adhere to something as arbitrary and limiting as encumbrance seems like such a half-measure.

It doesn't seem like it's much of an RPG or much of an action game. It's just another Bethesda game except even more streamlined.

Yep it's silly. I don't attend midnight launches anymore. By the time I've queued, bought it, got home and installed everything, I am ready for bed.

I'll be bright and breezy in the morning and will be playing it by 10am. Plus I'll save £10 doing so!
 
dumb question but does anyone know if any major sites are doing any live streams of this today? I'm trying to win a copy of this game lol. So much shit coming out this month I gotta try and get something for free.
 
I just spent 3 hours rebuilding the first town and I have a ton more I want to do to it... This game is awesome.
 
The base building aspect looks soo sick. Im going to be spending so much time just building my settlement. I wonder how often it gets attacked and if im not their will I get a notification.
 
I've made it to Concord, and am currently about to jump in to the Power Armor in the same segment used in the E3 coverage. It's about 2-3 hours in including the Vault. Having an awesome time so far.

Just munching on some Lamb Chops with BBQ sauce then I'm diving back in.
 
in like a week their will probably be a UI mod... I fucking HATE the UI looks terrible... but really glad you can take off the little icons on the compass and you can change the color and opacity... like 10% or something lol
I will have it reallllly low lol... but its way better to find places by accident so Ill definitely have the location icons off.. and then turn it back on after a 100 hours or so.. to find the places I missed.

There is an in game option to turn location icons off in the compass? Where is that?
 
Quick question. Still a sucker for retail boxed game but I am wanting to buy Fallout 4 on PC which is coming this week thats has a 970 in it etc. Can I punch in the serial key into the Steam and download (I didn't get a DVD drive fitted)....

Thank you!!
 
No Norton on the list? FUCK. My name is not THAT different!
