Build the Bell folks, it's cheap and will save you a lot of headaches getting access to NPCs given how they like to wander.

 

[Ferrio]

So for anyone playing for awhile, how good are companions? Thinking of picking up the one where you ditch your companion since I really don't wanna deal with them.

 

[Chitown B]

I dont like the new radiation system, everything gives radiation so i never have all my health, not even worth using a radaway cause ill just end up losing the same chunk of health to radiation poisoning in like half an hour or so

if you cook something it doesn't have radiation. you just have to know that and use ways to get around it.

 

[bbd23]

Where did you get that stand from?

Plus I have x amount of Vault Lunchboxes, is there a display for them?

did you seriously just post a 1920x1080 gif?

 

[K.Sabot]

The dialogue system / options are truly awful.

Doesn't ever feel like I have actual conversations anymore.

 

[FlyinJ]

I got the second settlement, gave them electricity water and beds. There are two people living there and they are complaining they have no food. I planted like 8 tato plants, and it's still reading zero food. Do I need to do anything special to get the planted food to register?

 

[Sarcasm]

So I guess the name Katrina isn't voiced =/

 

[ViciousDS]

Search around, there will be something you can pickup, a password or something, that will unlock it.

Yes I couldn't find a tape to load in or anything... Because there is a load holo option for that terminal

 

[superNESjoe]

Still unsure. Can I sell skill books or do I need to keep them for the effect?

 

[sdornan]

I actually like that radiation has a larger effect this time. Before it did so little it might as well have not been in the game.

 

[Chitown B]

So I come home, go to sleep and wake up to this lol:

LOL. what house has the bobblehead trophy case? Or do you have to build it?

 

[G_Berry]

So i need one of my special stats to be at 10 in order to select and of the sub perks?

Assign them to the plants, or at least one of them. Can do this via crafting menu, approach them, command them, go find the tatos, assign them to one.

1 person will harvest 6 nearby plants. Any more will go unused unused.

 

[FairXchange]

Playing on survival difficulty, damn this is hard.

 

[N° 2048]

So, two things;

1.) I think buildings you can enter have a lamp or candle on the bottom left or right corner of the doors.

2.) Can you throw items or just drop?

I think you can pick from anything. I don't really know.

[Venture]

Are there any pictures yet of the map that comes with the Vault Dweller's Survival guide? If it's more than just a generic map I'd be tempted to pick up one of the guides.

 

[blame space]

Is 136MB a lot?

 

[N° 2048]

I have these under Copper. I don't know if Copper and Copper Wire are separate?

Hot Plates
Magnifying Glass
Shadeless Lamp
Shadeless Table Lamp
Telephone

Those are just some. I know there are more.

[MrDaravon]

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?

Anyone?

 

[Teknoman]

Running through places with the Power Armor really does feel like cheating. Sliced through the factory area no problem...

LOL I did not realise it is so big.
Will delete it asap

I watched the gfycat version, it was scaled down for me. But the forums can not handle webm so I just changed the ending to gif.

Did not know it would end up being 140mb + 1080p.

Rip slow computers and data caps

 

[vocab]

Anyone?

For early game sell for caps, scrap low value stuff. You get so much materials in sanctuary its not even funny. Why get 1 wood when you can get caps.

 

[psychotron]

Started it tonight and I've completely fallen back in love with Fallout. I also think the game looks great. Sure you can nitpick but the overall atmosphere is gorgeous. This game will own me for a long while.

 

[Corpekata]

Anyone?

Depends on perks. There is a perk that allows you get better looted items from scrapped gear that will make scrapping weapons and armor very attractive. Without the perk they typically just return items like steel and wood which you will have more than enough of.

If you don't think those perks are worth it, probably worth selling more.

 

[ViciousDS]

It will probably crash safari for most users on iPhones. I'm lucky enough to have 4gb of ram in my phone.

 

[dork]

For a phone? Yes

lol it is for a computer too, thats almost the size of a full tv show

anyway, the game is amazing. But i can tell i'm overwhelmed by construction already. I hope i get to a point that gives a better tutorial

 

[Corpekata]

I'd argue you're meant to use it there as a buffer. There's even a power armor station inside so you can repair it. Without power armor that place is pretty harsh.

 

[Laughing Banana]

So... storage.

Can I just dump my non-junk stuff like armors/weapons/clothing in any container and the game will "remember" that whenever I play the game for however long?

I am kind of paranoid of the items suddenly disappearing for whatever reason. Right now I am using a house in sanctuary to store my stuff, or the rocket thingie gas station where you first meet Dogmeat.

Can anyone shed any information/insight about this? Thanks

 

[Disxo]

Anyone knows how to make a house with floors?
The stairs are so confusing to use and I dont know what to put upstairs to get a coherent structure.
(Or a link for tutorials, maybe?)

 

[Chuck]

um what the fuck is up with the """seats""" at fenway? lol

this is like fallout 3 level of bad

 

[Teknoman]

True, when the boss popped up and all those bullets were flying...I guess there are places balanced for power armor alone then? Better not get to power happy I suppose.

Question about factions and joining them.

Spoiler

Is it possible to join multiple factions? I'm at the point where it seems I can join the Minutemen but don't want to some how be tied down to it so early in the game. Is it a case of me just doing having the mission line but not not blocked out of joining another group instead?

 

[Alchemy]

Put in another two hours, basically forcing my way through so far. Not sure how long I can deal, this game is a bigger bummer to me than Oblivion was.
