It just renders the whole inventory limit useless. Oh I am carrying too much? Beam me up to my base and back scotty (in this post-apocalyptic wasteland where resources are scarce and shit lol). Juice running low on my power suit? Better to teleport to not spend too much!

I'm probably just going to have to do that then. I'm guessing I should drop off any companions I have with me before I do it?
I feel like such a prick when I get back to sanctuary, throw all my excess weapons & armor on the ground, then ring a bell that summons all the townsfolk, I scrap a bunch of crap and tinker with my weapons while they all stand around me, before looking at every single one of them and taking their bobby pins. I'm a jerk.
Oh, and i've asked a few times, but I didn't see a reply -- can you check playtime on PS4?

Hooooly shit. So I found this tower near a raider camp, and sneaked my way to the top of the tower. There were a bunch of higher level raiders around, so I used a stealth boy. So I activate a circuit breaker and an Alpha deathclaw comes out and starts killing everyone. There's even a moment where it send a raiders body flying high up. I'm uploading a video of it right now, it was about 2 minutes worth of bloodshed. So damn cool.

Thinking of creating a pretty, red-haired mummy who bashes people's heads off with pipes, hahaha.
Will you be willing to share your build and your invested perks? How's the experience so far? What difficulty are you playing at?
Sorry for all the questions. People rarely go exclusively melee so yeah, I just want to know the experience of those doing it.
So I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, but it seems the 3rd person camera is now in a fixed position and not adjustable like in fallout 3 and NV. As some one who used to play exclusively 3rd person wth the camera zoomed right to the shoulder. This is almost a deal breaker, anyone else pissed off abouf this.

It does break a lot of the survival aspects I agree, but couldn't you fast travel to your hearts content in FO3 and NV as well? Not exactly a new thing.

when you open the crafting menu for settlements, you can select a person, then select the job you want to assign them to. so pick a person you want, then assign them to a crop

?
In PS4 you can adjust the 3rd person camera's distance by pushing the touchpad and right stick, IIRC. The game even specifically tells you this on a tutorial pop up.
I haven't done this for all of my settlers and I've seen them working on the crops on their own. It seems the game automatically assigns "idle" NPCs to jobs that need doing around the settlement.
If you like fast travel so be it. If you don't so be it and don't use it.
Yeeesh don't come and preach while forcing your wants on someone else.
No need to force others to play the way you want, especially when you can play it the way you want (which in this case is use your self control and don't use it).
Mod in a bicycle when yea can maybe.

Is it one person per crop/plabt, one person per variety (ie one for corn one for tatos etc) or can you assign one person to multiple plants?

Fast travel is an optional feature in all Bethesda and most open world games, you don't need to use it. I never use it because I like the cool stuff that you can miss out that happens when you travel around instead of fast travel in Bethesda games. I don't understand the issue people have with this, its choice, you never have to ever use it and I never do. A lot of people don't like it and also don't like forms of backtracking so they do like using it.
In regards to the power armor, I think that's pretty much a bug/oversight with being able to fast travel and not use power from fusion core when doing so and also if it's depleted still being able to fast travel with it, just like other Bethesda games we should see balance patches fixing things like this, and there's gonna be a lot of them. IMO, fast travel with power armor should consume the appropriate amount of energy as if you sprinted that distance to where you traveled. This sort of thing will be patched.
Which makes it even more disgusting that they didn't do anything about it! Fucking bethesda hacks.
It's just bad design, not an oversight. And yes it's optional and yes I would love to ignore fast travel, but it's too effective to ignore. It renders the strength attribute useless unless you go for melee. They might as well just given you unlimited carry weight.

Hehehe. Awesome.
Wondering through the city toward the stadium was really fun. Raiders were fighting some mutant dogs or whatever around a corner and I just left 'em there. I wasn't gettin' involved since they'd probably both just jump on my and my dogmeat. Definitely improved the atmosphere and environment from FO3.

The game tells you at a tutorial pop-ups you can assign 1 character for 6 crops/plants.
I've never seen this tutorial/pop up but thanks for the heads up

Oh master, share your secrets !
Personnaly Survival has been exactly what you'd expect from a harsh unforgiving survival world, I'm basically dying every time I engage something else than a pack of Flies, Molerats, or Dogs xD
And that first fight with the Deathclaw ..... ooooooh boy that was no joke.

This is my main bugbear with the crafting. I spent a couple of hours last night building a wall around Sanctuary, and while it was fun it would have been so much more enjoyable if the wall components snapped to one another, instead of having to painstakingly line each one up.

Walls will snap to each other

You mean outside of the first hour when you fight one in one of the first quests?
Its the thing that comes from the ground when you get power armor.
And yes ive seen a few since then, once I saw 2 fighting each other like a godzilla movie so i just moved along lol

Examples:
Deathclaw fight: I went inside a house and shot it until it "hid". Then I went to a roof and shot it until it died.
5-man raider party beneath the radar thingy: I walked up to them one by one and VATS:d their heads off. Wait in a corner until someone pops out and VATS them. Or just throw a molotov somewhere where they group up and wait for them to burn. If you are patient, just let dog kill em all since he's immortal.
And my points are mostly in charisma and intelligence...

No it's not. You can see it the whole time. And it's definitely not a Mirelurk King or Sentry Bot.
I think he means the actual chameleon style enemy that can disguise itself, I have not seen that yet
Agility 9 is a must as is Intelligence at 1 so that Luck at 5 (Idiot Savant) can proc often. The rest is up to you but I find that the Cannibal perk in the Endurance tree helped me survive those early levels against raiders.
Melee is rough to start with but the more you progress and get better gear then the more havoc you can unleash up close.

hahahaha... You seem to be reaching and clawing for shit to complain about, and yet your complaints really come about because of how YOU choose to play the game. You complain because survival difficulty isn't difficult and this ^ is how you play the game? Running and hiding?...or surviving, maybe? Fight shit the way it's meant to be and I promise you it'll be plenty difficult.
Edit: and if you're only in the beginning of the game, on survival, just wait. You can't cheese much later on.
You complain because fast travel takes away from the surviving aspect yet you claim it's too great of a feature to not use?
Funny, funny shit.

got that glitch where my gun and hand disappeared ._.;
The game has been harder than New Vegas and especially Fallout 3 for me (outside of those damn Cazadors). Probably also the most challenging Bethesda game I've played. I'm playing on normal and there were a few times my ass got kicked. Terrified to try to the harder challenges when Radscorpians already make me scream like a little kid - I know I will someday soon though.

Getting that second star for the rifleman perk is making it a hell of a lot easier to mow down the super mutants.
Gotten that a ton of times now. Just save and reload.
What? None of those complaints are reaching. I've seen this idea repeated before and I just don't get it- it is the burden of the game's design to create a challenging and engaging experience, expecting players to use all the tools at their disposal. I shouldn't enter a game, find out somethings too effective, (see: Canopus or archers in general in Tactics Ogre, the melee build in Bioshock Infinite, quen in witcher 2, etc.) drop it, then repeat until I find the "right" difficulty- the game should be tuned and balanced. This kind of attitude basically says balance doesn't matter because players should just nerf themselves for challenge. Your game should force the player to use all those elements to stand a chance, not allow them to break the game in half with minimal effort.
This is absolutely insane. I am not usually into these building aspects in games but I just spent 7 hours getting every resource from that first clear out these raiders mission and have been adding to my settlement in every way. I have way too much food, defence, beds, water etc. for the amount of people in there now but am ready for when a put down a radio beacon.

Just had one come up. It was another scripted encounter during the exploration of a location on the Western side of the map. No power armor this time!
Just go in and out of third-person mode. It fixes it for me.
