I asked this earlier, but does anyone know how I can access furniture I've stored in my workshop?

Is it wrong that I am having so much fun scrapping everything in Sanctuary? Normally I don't really care all that much about actual "world building" in games, but for whatever reason I actually want to help rebuild. But first I get to vandalize an entire town.

Minecraft effect, right there. I was doing the same thing for a long time.

Would it be jarring to play Fallout 3 after this game?

I was originally going to play F3 first since it came free with the Xbox version, but now I'm HYPED for F4 and just want to play that.

Would playing F4 hinder my experience of F3 if I choose to just play F3 much later?

 

[Yoshichan]

welp, just bought it

 

[golem]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. *sigh*
I'll let it install and I'll watch an episode of Adventure Time or something.
Oh wait. Oh my god what are these cartoons? I love this! Not even salty anymore.

You can probably get out of the vault in 45 minutes, depending on how long you spend on character creation lol

 

[trillbo]

He came in through the side. :lol

Haha crafty fecker!

Yeah it plays the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. cartoons during the install.

I'd say yes. F3 is certainly a beast but it is an old beast. At this point just for serious fans or modders.

Question for people playing on the PS4 or a modest PC

on the PS4 how has the game been performing?

Have only experienced stuttering when the game is loading the next environment, other then that it's been completely smooth

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

My brother just texted to confirm my copy's sitting on the counter at home. Fuck you rush hour traffic.

 

[Cc23830]

Damn it. Outside diamond city i was doing this mission...

Spoiler

just left diamond city after the hard up husband killed cooke and went to sabotage the drug deal. Man i collected over 200 of jet / buffout etc etc. Behind me was a girl trader so went to sell my ill gotten gains and wasnt paying attention, my game glitched and she kept my stuff and didnt hand over a single cap!!! She still had 2000 in her pocket. I killed her and she had nothing on her. Noooooooo

 

[Rhaknar]

edit: nope no gamebreaking bug, im just an idiot. I read some emails and it told me the alternative. Good on the game, and shame on me.

 

[MMaRsu]

Guys where can I find screws.. I cant make any weapon mods cause I dont have them.

Also there has to be a good way to scrap all your junk at once right? Ive been dropping it on the floor and then scrapping it.

I really like the game so far . Much better than expected actually!

 

[mysocksarepink]

Possibly, I haven't messed with any FOV settings and I've used a doxen or so terminals without any issues in various places now.

changed my FOV back to it's normal setting

I'm still getting stuck after every computer terminal

has anyone had this issue? fuck -_- I can't progress..


edit: found this on reddit, fixed the issue

Edit Fallout4Prefs, and change iPresentInterval=1 to iPresentInterval=0

 

[blue_phazon]

I'd say yes. F3 is certainly a beast but it is an old beast. At this point just for serious fans or modders.

Okqy I suppose I'll ply F3 first. I watched a few let's play videos and despite it looking dated, it still looks fun to me.

 

[mxgt]

Played 6 hours and the game is really fun, but god damn it's buggy as fuck. I knew it was going to be, but this is worse than I ever had with FO3 and New Vegas

On four separate occasions I access a terminal and the game just gets stuck and I can't do anything, have to reload the save.

Just now I scoped in with my weapon and the game teleported me into the sky and I fell to my death - what the fuck.

Thank god for auto save in pip boy and quick save.

 

[shiba5]

Is there a way to remove the mole rat corpses outside the Red Rocket? They are cluttering up the place and I can't just scrap them.

 

[sora87]

Where can you find concrete and ceramic?

 

[razgriz417]

Likeness = the number of characters in the right space that matches the password.

Say you pick HALO.
And the real password is FAME.
It would have a likeness of 1 because the A is in the same spot as the password, but none of the other characters match.

FYI if you got through the jumbled text and look for < { [ ( and find one that is paired with the corresponding > } ] ) it will wipe out a dud password.

 

[SpecX]

I'm addicted to this thread, must stay away as it's prolonging the day and I'm getting nothing done. 6 hours to go, forget working any OT today!

 

[Atwa]

Anyone playing on Survival mode could tell how difficult it is???

Enemies are just bullet sponges, I don't find it fun at all. You have to put like 300 bullets into the Deathclaw early on,.

Spent a good two hours doing nothing lol well got the power armour and jumped off for food.

 

[Red Blaster]

every toilet and sink you come across

Seems like the terminals are the most buggy right now form all I read here.

I've started investing points in Strength, just because I'm constantly on my weight limit.

I would also like to know this. I got like 5 of them in my living room :/

There are multiples of that in each hacking attempt. Most remove duds but sometimes there is one that replenishes your selection attempts. Just try three passwords and comb the random symbols for a combination. If you get a refill try three more. If you don't get the proper password then just back out of the terminal and enter it again. It resets completely. Rinse and repeat until success.

Deathclaws are an elite enemy in the Fallout universe. That encounter was easy as shit compared to some of the older ones..... Still got me killed a few times though.

How do you wait to fast forward time in this? Is it only by sleeping in a bed?

 

[Krappadizzle]

I've been playing survivor since the beginning(about 10 hours or so) and I'll say it's pretty fun. Enemies aren't too bullet spongey(it feels appropriate if they're wearing armor) but you'll take a lot of damage quickly. And you won't be able to heal in any meaningful way in combat unless you spec appropriately, which I haven't. I'm having a really good time with it. Makes the environment feel a lot more dangerous. It's harder in the beginning, but once you hit level 10 or so and get decent weapons it levels out. It makes saving your power armor for difficult areas way more meaningful and rewarding.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Here's a video of me getting ambushed by that super mutant. :lol

Sit down somewhere and press Y.

 

[greatgeek]

Weren't the magazines supposed to be readable like TES books?

 

[Darryl M R]

Spent 2-3 hours finalizing my character look and questioning my SPECIAL decision. VATS doesn't seem that bad, wish I didn't put my extra point in Luck and put it in Agility instead. Agility will be the special tree I level up for end game stuff after I do all my primary perks.

Can't you drag their corpses? Hold A/X

 

[jacksepticeye]

Anyone getting a glitch where if you exit a terminal, your character won't move again? You can turn the camera 180 degrees but can't do anything else really

 

[Korosenai]

Does anyone know where the workshop is when you store stuff?

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Do melee weapons count as 'silenced weapons'?

I'm writing the order I'm gonna do perks and I don't know if putting more points into Mister Sandman outside of the first one is worth it for a melee build.

 

[Frillen]

How do you assign someone to do specific task in a settlement?

 

[jacksepticeye]

How do you assign someone to do specific task in a settlement?

In the workshop mode highlight the object and it should say "Assign" at the bottom. it auto assigns someone to it

 

[Ivory Samoan]

Playing on PC with a controller, not sure if there is aim assist in the game or if it is so minute it's not noticeable... anyone know if it's on the PC version as well as the console?

 

[blame space]

how the hell do you use grenades

 

[jesu]

Does anyone know where the workshop is when you store stuff?

There is one in Sanctuary and one in Red Rocket, that's as far as I've got.
Stuff you keep in Sanctuary can be used at any crafting tables in Sanctuary only
Stuff you keep in Red Rocket can be used in Red Rocket only.
I think eventually there is a perk and you can share your storage materials between settlements.

how the hell do you use grenades

Assign them to your favourites, then RB when equipped.
Perhaps hold RB, I'm not sure.

Do you think it is worthy to invest in charisma playing on survivor?

 

[Hitokiri03]

Wish the game had more control sensitivity options, the aiming is too slow.

up up and awayyyy

So say I stored a waterpump. How do I get it back to place it somewhere?

 

[thiscoldblack]

*sigh*

All this wait to get home from work. Plus I have to go the gym first because once I start the game, it will be difficult to stop.

Glad to see everyone is enjoying the game.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

how the hell do you use grenades

Equip it, and in game hold down R1(Or melee equivalent while holding gun on other platforms) and then release it. You should hear a 'click' when you hold it down.

 

[tmespe]

how the hell do you use grenades

Hold the meele attack button.

I love how Purkeypile is voice acted. Miss Purkeypile!

Ahhh I hope so. I have a ton of junk ive collected already and already overloaded.
