Infinite ammo or infinite ammo capacity? Cause those things are different.
Yeah there are a lot of settlements you can find and I'm up to 5 that were empty to start. Add long as you dont put up a tower, it's yours alone.
Not being harsh at all, jut honest, its clear what Bethesda's strengths and weaknesses are yet every single page has purist patting themselves on the back restating the obvious ad nauseum. I loved the dialogue system in the older games but Bethesda's chasing that bioware money.. sucks sure, but I've had 34 plus hours of solid gameplay to get over it.
Yea, honestly I'm not going to cry over a dialog system that would likely contain badly written canned replies anyway. Anyway, my point is that most of the purists also dig the game so it's all good. A little bit of lamentation on what could have been ain't going to stop me from RPing Crazy Wasteland Wanderer.
I waited till he overheated thrn killed him as his fusion core was exposed. He never exploded for me.

Exploring is by far the best part of this game. Was just wandering through Downtown Boston looting dumpsters and stumbled upon.
That was scary
Swan's pond
Fair enough/ well put.
Molecular Level is
building the relay
Mass Fusion is
after Institutionalized, Synth Relay, and Battle of Bunker Hill
, you can still side with other factions. You can basically rescind your allegiance by just not doing more missions for them.

Fast travel doesn't seem to drain the fusion cores at all so I always fast travel when I'm wearing power armor.
Also Spray 'n Pray is beyond OP.
Exploding rounds, it's not even a challenge. Trying to hide and run is futile. I will just shoot near your general vicinity and you will die in a glorious explosion.
Fighting a huge number of synths is amazing as all their extra bits go flying in a spectacular flurry. As well shooting at their legs and watching them all start to crawl around is so great. Ghouls too. Though they rarely survive a single shot now. It just wrecks them completely.

Sometimes I use him as bait and when all the enemies surround him I throw a grenade.
Then I don't heal him afterwards.
Thanks
For what it's worth it's a big grey area that hasn't been answered yet so I'm going off the fact that starting Mass Fusion
The game asked me if I wanted to ruin my relationship with the BoS
I've been creating saves after every mission starting with Molecular Level and jotting down their numbers just to be sure I can go back.
Cool, but what I was really asking was does wearing Power Armor all the time mean you HAVE to fast travel? Because I like to wander the wasteland exploring but that seems dumb to do in Power Armor because I only have 20 cores.
Exactly what I want to know. All people every say is "There are a ton of Fusion Cores" Well, I've been playing for 30 hours and I've only found about 20 cores.

I have 40 power cores....if you explore you will never run out. That being said I rarely use the power armor.

Gates are in Fences and there is a room section with stairs attached.
I never figured out the individual staircase. I guess it's for outside.
Exploring with PA is probably not a great idea, though you could probably get away with it. Cores really aren't a huge issue, you find them all over and can buy them pretty cheap, but you can easily go through a few exploring a zone and going through a major building or two. So it depends on your usage.
Depends on how far you are into the story. I have 40 and I've only depleted one core so far and I haven't stolen any from the Brotherhood of Steal or vendors. High Hacking gets you into a lot of rooms with Fusion Cores. But also once you get to the mission after Molecular Level there are a lot laying around in the building. Your 20 will last you a very long time and long enough to start collecting more.
If you don't sprint the cores will last at least a half hour to an hour of exploration. I went all the way from the edge of the Glowing Sea to the final spot, walked the whole way, and didn't even use half of a core. Fought some Alpha Deathclaws along the way as well.
On that note, I actually found a weapon off a Power Armor enemy that uses Fusion Cores as ammo, going to try it out tonight.

Warning: This thread contains a lot of "What is the point of building settlements???" because apparently having fun playing games isn't reward enough. Now you need a carrot.

Does the game feel extra stuttery for anyone else when using third person view?
Thanks for the replies everyone.
Why wouldn't we unlock everything though? If you put in the time, surely this is possible if there's no level cap?
I've only completed 1 main story mission so maybe that's my problem but I've cleared out a TON of ares along the top of half of the map. I find them every once and a while in basements, but not often. If vendors sell them, maybe the best thing to do would be to figure out how to get a ton of money and just keep buying them since I assume vendors will restock.
All in all, I haven't really needed the Power Armor but it would be nice to have more than 70-80 armor.
Do you have that scrounger perk. Wouldn't that help with cores?

Well the higher you level the slower it takes to level up. So when you are over 50 you will need a lot of exp to level up. There are a lot of perks too. 10 i think per special 7 specials = 70 + most have 3 or 4 ranks. I guess in theory you could...
There's a terminal linked to him in the barn in the center of the area. It does things to him, did you mess with it?
I got stuck in a lift. Ended up having to load an old save, I lost an hour of game time, gonna bypass that quest for now.
I do have two levels of that perk but I'm not sure it affects Fusion Cores appearing. I've mostly found them plugged into generators out in the open, not inside containers.

Does fast traveling while in Power Armor drain your cores at all?
The game actually says in the loading screen that the further south you go the more difficult it gets. Start exploring down there and you'll run into Deathclaws, Mirelurk Hunters, Radscorpions, and you'll be wishing you had that Power Armor (;
But progressing the story helps, there's a lot of containers that are lootable that have Fusion Cores in them for example when you start working for the Brotherhood of Steel.
Nope.

level 264 to max everything
I looked at at but I don't remember doing anything to him, I think I just read it and figured I'd come back to it later.
I've actually been killing all of those up at the top of the map. Heck, I just took out four Deathclaws last night. One was an Alpha but I don't know what level it was since I don't have that perk that tells me.
I think the main reason I want to start wearing Power Armor more is because it looks fun and would give extra protection. Having to get out to Hack computers or Pick Locks is kind of a pain, though.

It depends. By like level 30 when you have nothing to buy, or earlier if you are high CHA or have perks to get caps/extend core time, you can easily afford a constant supply of vendor power cores. Once enemies stop using Pipe weapons guns are worth alot. Also all that .38 ammo you never use are caps.
You can hack and lockpick in armor, you just cannot craft or sleep/sit.

Only for certain computers do you have to. The ones where there's a chair in front of them.
I haven't come across a lock I can't pick in power armor.
Good to know. Thanks.

Encountered my first truly annoying bug
Both dirty water and purified water disappears from my workshop for some reason (maybe other stuff too but they are the only thing that I've noticed)
Not a major problem but its annoying for cooking/crafting

Also at level 51 and probably an equal number of hours in the game I now have 10 complete suites of power armor. 1 Raider, 1 T51b, 2 T60, 2 X-01 and 4 T45d.
And I haven't touched any of the major faction quest lines. I'm assuming I will get a lot more come hooking up with the BoS.
