By the way people remember once you get the perk to unlock master locks go back to vault 111 to get an awesome weapon.
 
My galaxy s6 doesnt fit in the pip boy...wouldve just been a minor annoyance since I didnt really figure Id use it as an actual phone holster much, but then I continued opening the CE to find that the steel book case is split in half at the seam...
 
You summarised it for me.

Was it so much to ask for Bethesda's great world buildings, gameplay mechanics, shooting refinements and also want Obsidian's quality of writing, branching story paths, speech checks, etc? Yes, I think it was.

I never played Vegas so I don't miss anything.

so has anyone on ps4 gotten full blown crashes.. to the dashboard?

I've had that happen twice on the X1 in 7 hours.
 
Rented this from Redbox and really did not expect me to enjoy as much as I am enjoying it now. Never really played a Fallout game beside the third one on PC for maybe 2 hours, this one has got its hooks in me. Now should I buy it now or wait until next year.
 
It's really not that different...

What specifically is she not liking? What could she do before that she can't do now? Because personally it seems a lot like FO3 to me, so I'm curious.

My wife absolutely hates the game and she is a massive roleplayer, to the point of having at least 10 distinct characters in each of the Dragon Age games.

The stupid leveling and points system, the focus on combat, the Mass Effect-style dialog, worse-than-usual Bethesda writing, the streamlining of player stats (apparently no status effects), etc makes this a shooter with RPG elements and not an RPG shooter. In her words "it feels like I'm playing Far Cry 3."

Holy shit, the sarcastic options are hilarious.

Dialogue system redeemed. I'm looking forward to the collections of sarcastic options on youtube.

Oh shit. I just love this. There is just so much in this game. I found a crashed commercial jet that had a giant master locked storage unit in it. I need to remember all these things!
 
Where can I find more crops for the early sanctuary falls mission?

Harvest what's there. Use the harvested materials to plant new crops. Wait a while (I did a couple random quests and slept a couple days). Harvest new crops. Use the harvested materials to plant new crops, etc.
 
BUG WARNING

Heads up GAF, I've found a reproducable bug that could become permanent if you aren't careful.

If you come across a water treatment plant occupied by Super Mutants, DON'T USE THE FINAL ELEVATOR BEFORE THE END. The invisible weapon/Pip Boy bug awaits you at the top without fail. I had to reload an old save, backtrack and exit the same way I came in to avoid it.
 
Command to fullscreen the game? Alt tabbing keeps on minimizing the game on my first monitor. Want to make it so it doesn't minimize the game and I can just quicly do what ever on my second monitor.
 
Quick question; I haven't gotten to a vendor yet where I can sell stuff, so I've had to stash unwanted armor/weapons. Should I just be scapping armor and weapons, or am I still better off selling those? Or does it just really depend?

Yeah I know I found another master lock before getting the perk but now that I have it I don't remember where it was =(
 
Is it viable to try and stick points in perks for 2 kinds of weapons (melee and rifles) or am i better of concentrating on 1?
 
Enjoying this so much more than New Vegas it's not even funny. Feels more like FO3, which was a much better FO experience for me. Loving it.

You're going to be wanting for damage after level 10 on hard or higher. At least I feel that way, but I may just be have in some more difficult areas lately.

Character creator is fun.

I'm playing on hard and can back this up. You can't neglect the combat perks in this game if you're bold enough to just venture anywhere. You need to strike a balance.
 
Also, the angry dialouge options with
kellog
are incredible

I'm gonna rant about it in here.

THIS GAME DOES NOT HAVE SUBTITLES IN THE INTRO! :\

I'm DEAF and even though my husband tells me I'm missing nothing, it STILL IRKS me like SO much. :( Is there a TRANSCRIPT anywhere???

EDIT: Never mind. I found this, just posting it here for others to read in case they're like me.

Hey guys, is there a list where I can see what names I can choose so it appears in audio?
 
Man, that family backstory just kills the first hour and I'm guessing the rest of the main game. It's just painful to watch Bethesda try and make you care about the family. The robot is a bro though. I was so set on being an ass but damn, I couldn't be mean to him.

Is the charisma option in dialogue chance based or a definite? I thought we sorted this out with New Vegas. Why regress? You're already dealing with a atrocious system, don't add RNG/save scumming to it. Seems to be everything 3 was but less. Bleh, I had hope briefly. Grand if people like it but please don't let this become the standard for RPGs. It's becoming harder and harder to call these games RPGs with a straight face.

Time to whip out the console commands.

Also, where is Ron Pearlman?
 
Finding more and more quests that fit my play and RP-style. This is more like it. I hope the game keeps this up. I was a bit fed up with the (early spoiler)
Press X to Shaun stuff

"War, war never changes.

*A bunch of meaningless filler

War never changes."

That's all I remember :( It's truly unmemorable.

The sarcastic responses are pretty fun, yeah. They're somewhat reminiscent of Asshole Thorton from Alpha Protocol, where you can't really be "bad" but you can say dickish things to a lot of people in some amusing ways.

Not sure if they redeem the dialogue system in this game, though. :P

Oh man... in which platform are you playing this in? Is it PS4? Just a warning: there have been surprisingly quite often an occasion where the Subtitle just got STUCK on the previous line of dialogue even though the characters are already talking way beyond that line. I had it happened to me consistently during your first visit to the Freedom Museum... just a warning :/
 
Dumped 7 hours in on my first go. Despite it looking pretty ugly at times on PS4 I'm really enjoying my time with this game. They certainly delivered on the atmosphere. I hadn't played much Fallout after 3 so it feels good to dive in deep again.

My performance has been ok so far. Drops during hectic fights for sure, but I've found it manageable so far.
 
Idiot savant is great, like really really great. Getting 1k xp for turning in a quest is ridiculous. I got 957 xp for clearing
Vault 75
. Get it
