So is it confirmed that unused materials are destroyed if you're using junk from the workshop? There seems to be a mixed response from what I've seen. Should I just scrap everything manually?

 

[MMaRsu]

Interesting. When live streaming on PS4, the licensed music on the radio station isn't streamed. You can hear the DJ talking between songs but not the music.

I'm not complaining, it's just surprising to me they can even do that. I think this is the first time I've seen a PS4 game control what specific audio is broadcast when live streaming.

Really? It was the same with GTAV tho..

 

[dity]

So how do people here do their fights? We target the legs and arms. Very effective on pretty much every bipedal enemy so far.

Yeah, but I mean lowering or raising items on uneven terrain or things not snapping together when they should. That stuff you can also do with X + L1 and that just doesn't work smoothly for me.

Eh well, uneven ground is uneven ground.

Everything under the "junk" category is automatically broken down when needed. Anything under "Weapons" or "Armor" should be broken down by you.

Cool, thanks.

Ahh. I don't think I ever tried streaming GTAV. Makes sense. I remember when the PS4 first came out and there was a sports game(?) that muted all of the audio because there was licensed music. I guess back then developers didn't know how to disable specific audio channels and they just muted the entire game on live streams.

Can anyone tell me what armor this is on the main protagonist?

I like going for arms and legs on ghouls and robots. Taking off the arms on ghouls is hilarious, they become headbuttin' machines.

Brotherhood of Steel spoilers (As of introduction to their Elder)

Spoiler

Man, I do not like this guy. Especially while i'm hanging out with Nick aboard that ship, I quick-saved and tested whether the game would let me murder him or not, turns out I can, he super died. Although I didn't want to betray the Brotherhood that early, so I backed it up. I might do a fair few quests for them, but I might stop if I start having to murder synths like Nick, that's the line for me. I really hope the institute becomes a faction akin to the Brotherhood themselves, and aren't just the bad guys. I want to hear them out, I'm all for synthetic equality -- although Elder Maxon's priorities are very dictator-esque, I'm concerned that they're going to roll over the Commonwealth in an invasion. Poor Danse, he's just trying to be loyal, I might have to turn on him.

By the way -- Is the BoS Elder voiced by the same guy who voices Mark Jefferson in Life is Strange?

Super Fences do. They're the superior fences, prefereed by Super Mutants.

Taking out the legs on ghouls is so good. Even if it's a glowing legendary mutated ghoul, losing a leg makes it a sitting duck.

You find it off the main story line, if I'm pegging it right. It's the mission that pops the achievement for Hunter/Hunted.

Does anyone know how to get any piece to clip through walls when workshopping? Saw a post yesterday that mentioned this was possible to do with any piece of wall, furniture, etc

lol I did the exact same thing and was pretty surprised that the game let me essentially

wipe out him plus the rest of the Brotherhood leadership with a single mininuke during his speech

. I loaded out of it but I'm curious about how things would change if I had kept going.

Start placing fences on the lowground first. Future fences will snap to this, and clip through ground if necessary. Looks a lot nicer.

silver shroud coat i think,(edit : no its not. that doesnt have shoulderpads)
42 defense


also
DAMN THAT QUEEN MIRELURK WAS A BITCH ON HARD.
took me forever to beat her.
i thought id finally get preston's gun after all that shit but nope. more quests.
i leaving the fucking minutemen to die now.
brotherhood gave me a legendary on the first mission. im going with them.

best part though, lv14 and still no sight of a legendary monster. even though i have two legendary weapons and a chestpiece that slows down time if i lose 3/4th of my health.

Ok... hiw exactly do you get Dogmeat to get that op gun in vault 111? I'm trying to get him to do it and he just whines.

 

[Big Green Anus]

This game is a lot more harder than I thought Any tips? If I put the game on easy, would a received less XP? I'm currently on Normal.

Does anyone have a list of clothing that you can use for armor layering?

 

[hamster3 3]

The chair named after her in Special.

 

[sangreal]

You can dress the dog somewhat. Bandana, dog specific goggles and armors.
Currently, my (male) charisma set consists of fancy glasses, a militia hat and a ruby sequin dress with high heels. I can't tell if anyone really likes my character, or they are laughing so hard that they just give in.

You can dress dogmeat, yeah, but we were talking about the junkyard dog you can buy. You can't interact w/ him at all so far as I can tell. There is a talk option but he just barks

Seems like a pretty major shift you can commit to.

Spoiler

the text 'You're now an enemy of the Brotherhood' came up in the top left. I told Danse to go to Sanctuary after he was enabled as a companion -- would I get back their to have him try to shoot me on sight? I remember just testing rare weapons of Sanctuary citizens just to see how they worked before backing my save up to an save a few minutes earlier -- Codsworth attacked me, being a save I wasn't continuing I fought back, he was immortal, he'd drop into his downed state for a few seconds, then get back up and kill me, so I wonder if that would have just ruined Sanctuary forever if I let it go.

 

[Onivulk]

I'd like to give a shout out to the Nerd Rage perk. I put a point into it and wasn't expecting much but, its too good.

 

[Busta SMurk]

Kinda a drive-by question (avoiding F4 threads), but I need to know why sometimes bodies are disappearing so fast.

I've had 2 instances where I've killed off Raiders, pockets were full, so I had to stash and come back. Upon coming back, the bodies were completely gone. Meanwhile some corpses in a town

Spoiler

(Concord)

have been sitting there since the beginning.

Thought this only happened if you looted them empty?

Is there any way to find a companion if you cant remember when you left them? I thought I send Dogmeat to Senctuary, but when I rang a bell, he wasnt there.

 

[rjinaz]

Build up your settlement so you have an easier time modding. It's amazing what a difference some modding can do for you especially with how powerful your weapons can be. Unlock the appropriate perk ranks as well like gun nut and Armorer.

I was having a hard time when I first started but once I started to max out the weapons through modding I am now a killing machine.

 

[NoSkillz187]

Walked into my first Vault(besides 111) on accident.

Won't spoil it for people but pretty fucked up experiments in this one. Awesome.

Search behind the houses for dog houses. There are 3 in sanctuary, he will be at one.

Then destroy all the dog houses. Create one (it's under misc decorations) where you want him to appear from now on.

This question has been on all 100+ pages of this thread

[Sanctuary]

I hadn't really been having much issue killing things (Hard), but I was essentially staying with two ammo types for the most part partially due to scarcity, and partially due to the other weapons that I had with a specific ammo type just were not cutting it.

My shotgun did plenty of damage, but I saved it simply because it was the double barrel, two shots and reload variety and my .45 weapon was trash. I avoided going to Diamond City until the 17 hour mark, and good lord the upgrades you can get there for both the shotgun and the .45 ammo is insane.

It's a mistake you should only make once, after spending 30 minutes searching for a companion! I now always send them to the same place

 

[Not Spaceghost]

What clothing/armor is on her?

BOS Officers Uniform.

Found it off a dead BOS member after a random battle.

He likes to hang out in a dog house. I scrapped all but one and moved the remaining one close to the workshop area so I can find him easily.

If you're on PC, you can bring him to you using these console commands:
Type 'prid 0001d162'
Type 'moveto player'
