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?
While there's no hard cap for levels, there does seem to be a soft cap at 50 where it takes exponentially more xp per level afterwards to level. It starts to be impractical, but think that eventual got patched in Skyrim so it might in this too.
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.
Ammo boxes in military structures can definitely have multiple fusion cores. I have one point in the scrounged perk though, so maybe that why I've found five at the same time before. I'm still holding my fusion cores I've used power armor twice since I did the Concord mission.
 
So I can't start the game on Xbone. It loads to the title screen, but whenever I hit the A button, it seems to freeze. I can exit out to the dashboard, close the game out, whatever, but I cannot continue my game. I have completely power cycled the console twice now. Anyone else experience this?
 
How viable is always wearing power armor. It seems cores are purely limited

It's viable but you won't have a lot of cores early on, so use it sparingly at first. You will want the radiation weapon perk under Intelligence because at rank 3 fusion cores will last twice as long. There is also a bobblehead that helps with fusion core length.
 
I don't want to be spoiled for the ending but I'm halfway through and I feel like there is a major plot point I'm not getting or am just confused by.


I made it to diamond city and then found the person I have been looking for -
Did you character fall back asleep for ten years after they took the baby, or did the institute do something to age Shaun 10 years in a few weeks. I REALLY thought it was the latter until I found Kellogg and saw his memories but now I don't know. If it was another ten years they fucked up the presentation of that. You come out of the chamber like 20 seconds after they leave the room and I didn't see a fade to black. I assumed they just aged Shaun with Science.
 
Man, I'm disappointed in the Courser Suit. From afar it looked like it could be a decent Elite Riot Gear-lookalike, but no dice.

Modders need to add that shit sooooon.
 
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.

My fault, I misread your post. I wear the armor mostly when I head into unexplored areas but I typically leave it at home while I'm out in the wasteland doing settlement resupply runs. I'm about 54 hours in and sitting on something like 25 cores currently so I'd say there's sufficient cores to go around if you wanted to wear the armor constanly. You can almost always buy them from vendors too, with some having more than one available.
 
Does anyone know where I can find a list of companion related side quests? I've basically just been rolling with
Nick and Piper
and I have the
Eddie Winter quest from Nick.
Are there any other companions that have quests related to them that I should be bringing them with me until I trigger them?

They're pretty deliberate
in stating and showing that they're putting you back on ice in the Vault scene when they leave you there. Which was a clear nod that some time would pass between the two events. I knew immediately that you would wake up several years later when they did it. I assumed it would be more like 20 years and you'd meet up with your adult child, but they only went with 10 years, which is kind of disappointing. Haven't gone much further in the main plot since then so we'll see how it turns out.
 
I want to go with the Brotherhood questline, but that guy tells me to investigate the institute and does not give any quest.

What can I do ? Is this for later ?

Also, this:

Hum, so the shop guy from the Steel brotherhood asks me to ask farmers to give food to the brotherhood, but he ALWAYS sends me to the same farm (almost below the ship). Is it a bug ?
 
If anyone is doing a melee stealth build can you let me know if it's viable. Seems like I'm constantly being taken out of stealth for story or mini event purposes. Feel like I should just restart and play the game like a shooter like beth wants me to.

Yes, several others. I would avoid the Fallout Wikia though to find out who they are as it's a bit spoilery.
 
My copy finally arrived on Thursday (thanks Amazon) so I been playing it ever since.
So here are a few thoughts of mine:

1-Those Storms are VERY atmospheric and I was actually being a coward while staying inside a building waiting for it to pass.The mood change and even the sounds of it were great as I listened to it with my surround sound headphones.


2-I don't see the point of L1/R1 Buttons having the same function unless I missed something and there are some Weapons you can dual weild here.

3-Playing this on PS Vita was GREAT!

4-Little to no tutorials and I had alot of learning to do.

5-Digging the Deep Pockets Mods on my Leather Armor Set and along with my 10 Strength and Strong Back Perks my current weight limit is 410.

6-My first death was by a Mini Nuke and the whistling sound it makes is hilarious.
 
I think the main reason I want to start wearing Power Armor more is because it looks fun

This could be you.
 
Trophy wise--Molecular Level is point of no return
Faction wise- Mass Fusion is point of no return

For 100% trophy guide, save at Molecular Level beginning.
Just to see all the different endings, save before Mass Fusion.

I made saves at both. Molecular Level to Mass Fusion is only a couple quests though so not a big difference.

I dont care about achievements so mas fusion it is
 
Anyone else stuck on Tradecraft? Using the terminal to unlock a mag-locked door doesn't do shit. It just stays locked. Might have to just use the console to disable the door.

Deacon bugged out for me on this. Saving and then re-loading that save reset him for me.

It might have to do with you unlocking the door. I think he is supposed to.
 
Ah right yeah I have the one just down the road from Sanctuary. The one in the title screen is different. Wondered if that was in game or just made for the title.

I have a feeling it was just for the title screen. I haven't explored the whole map but I haven't come across any that look like the title screen RR station and those places I've yet to explore likely aren't the environs that would have it.

That makes sense. Does that mean you have to fast travel home to get it and then fast travel back every time you find a new area that needs to be cleared of enemies?

In the past, I scoffed at the idea of fast traveling in Bethesda games but in Fallout 4 it seems really hard to avoid.

This could be you.

Looks sweet.

There is a faction that has tons of them on the cheap.
 
It's not the same Red Rocket. The one in the menu looks like is in some sort of remote desert.

Ah right yeah I have the one just down the road from Sanctuary. The one in the title screen is different. Wondered if that was in game or just made for the title.

Ah, damn, you're right. I haven't encountered the one on the title screen yet then.

How the hell do legendary synths even "mutate"?

The funniest one I've had so far was when a Legendary Triggerman "mutated." Was he wearing a radioactive fedora?
 
So "End of the Line" is bugged for me. Can't
open the door to the railroad
so basically cant progress in the main story until it's fixed.

Guess I am taking a break from this game for a bit then.

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.

I'm not seeing the issue here. People expect that a new feature that was quite advertised to actually have some depth and mechanics to go along with it. That's pretty darn reasonable. Just because you're happy with a very lackluster part of the game doesn't mean others should.

Settlements will be great once modders start working on making them actually matter. For now they are just there, and no, they really aren't much "fun".

Opinions, man. They are TONS of fun. I spent 22 hours doing settlements and will put a ton of more time into it.

So much whining. (not specifically you, that thread)
 
i got a bunch of power armor frames(in total i got like 6 or so) but most of them have no armor, is there a merchant that sells armor or something?

Lucky, i lack frames but not parts. They're are random raiders in the wasteland wearing power armor. Kill them and you can loot the pieces but can't get their frames.

How do I change the colour of the UI? I assume its tied to your pip boy? I've seen people online with blue, orange UI etc.

Its under settings in the pause menu.
