That was a pretty good video that really sums up the game and I quite agree with him. Enjoyed the game even though it could have done some things better.

You can send em back to their home by pressing cancel on the screen where they ask which settlement you want em to go.
(or at least I think its cancel,I just press tab on pc which is pip boy button)

Interesting. Gonna try that later.
It was a good video, but his points on the SPECIAL system are bullshit complaints. Yes, you can in theory become a god-like superhuman who can do anything and have 10 in each stat, but I made it to level 65 being a suave smooth-talker with experience in hacking computers, picking locks and shooting things with rifles. Give me a pistol or a heavy weapon and I'll fail horribly. Tell me to sneak? Shit, I can't do that. I dunno, that particular complaint just seems contrived and useless.
Having the main character be voiced is a much bigger detractor to the role-playing than the current SPECIAL system, imo.

Oh my God, thank you.
This game is just so freaking horrible at explaining anything short of how to move and how to open VATS.

So, I have a garden of crops, corn, tatos etc.
The people I've assigned to them, should the be depositing the stuff they harvest in my workshop?
Because they dont seem to at all. :/

Yes,the only reason I actually know this because whenever I got a new weapon,I usually tried em out on Mama Murphy and co and for some reason,the companions didnt like it,so when the "where to send" window popped up,I just canceled it out since it was faster
70 hours in and it seems all quests are complete and my world is pretty empty now
How are those with 100+ hours spending their time?, are you walking everywhere instead of fast travelling?, are you just walking around looking for new places?
I really really want to keep playing in this world, but there's nothing else to do

I'm really annoyed that I've been locked out of Classical Radio because of the ending I chose. (Why Bethesda?)
Well I want my radio station so im going back several hours.
All In the name of Classical Music.
Total arse, Bethesda.
(at least I'll get Maxims' coat)

Well this has permanently screwed me over. I can't complete the quest Old Guns because of this.

Amen. If people went to the Start>Help and read the pop up tips they would see that there's tons of things explained.
Bethesda said take your time and explore. Learn the game, this isn't an quick in and out game. I still don't know alot and question a lot too, like " if I do this will it affect this" but I just let it flow and go with it.
It's early and I'm grumpy. Sorry. I love this game so much. It's helped me so much with my depression. (Series as a whole)

The only thing that is sort of bumming me out so far (25 hours in) is that it feels like any time i get a cool looking piece of armor (such as the spiked helmet raider outfit) the stats are significantly worse than just wearing the vault jumpsuit and the crappy looking limb armor pieces.
Do you eventually get cool looking, powerful gear?

Isn't the Silver Shroud gear pretty good?
They should deposit the extra. Every person consume 1 food and 1 water and the rest is deposited. The things in storage are also used to feed any linked settlement that doesn't have enough food/water of their own. So if you have more than that, it should be in there.
Yeah I know the feeling. Depression can go suck it. Haven't had fun playing games this year. It's just been something I've done to keep me busy. Then this comes out and I'm just... in love. I'm having SO much fun. Can't remember the last time I felt this way.
It's decent but not enough to justify losing the stat bonuses from individual armor pieces, especially legendaries

Doesn't work for me, Piper just stays in Sanctuary Hills.
I've gone from being a vengeful father to a war profiteer. A ripened psychopath on the road to profit.
Where once stood Sanctuary is now my very own Ice Mountain. A cornucopia of Dasani. My water purifiers black out the sky and rows of pumps go as far as the eye can see. The same fate has befallen the Drive-In.
The Red Rocket gas station has grown into a Vegetable Starch plantation. My slaves work the fields day and night, growing my corn, tato and mutfruit crops. Sleeping quarters consist of a large wooden car port with a dozen tattered sleeping bags underneath.
Yes, my friends, I am the wasteland Romney. AMERICA WILL NOT FALL. PRAISE BE TO REAGAN!
I'll defend my riches with the Brotherhood of Steel. I'll bleed heart for The Railroad in public to earn social brownie points. All the while calling the shots behind the scenes with The Institute giving fuck-all about social issues or human purity. The only things I care about are caps.
GOD BLESS AMERICA.

I've played two and was underwhelmed. The Valentine quest was downright tedious
Spent all god damned night doing that one. Pretty unnecessarily long. I could have blown through and just grabbed the tapes and bounced, but I HAVE TO CONSUME EVERY AREA I WALK IN TO.
Does Strong have a quest? I got his perk, but that's it. He honestly grooves the most with my character, but I've been wanting to unlock more perks and stuff. Valentine is taking fucking forever. He's a cool guy, but man alive he is no Strong. All I wanna do is eat people, man. The fuck out of here with your judge-y eyes.

Just to confirm; you've connected the radio to power manually, and you are going to the radio to turn it on?

Stuck on Call to Arms with Paladin Danse. I get the password to the door, but then my character is stuck. I can pan the camera 45% to the right or left, but that's it.

Damn,youre right,I actually just tried it out with diff companions.I thought maybe its tied to affinity,but Strong still goes back to a settlement I sent him to.Sorry,it looks like I havent actually tied em to a settlement when they went back home,for example I just started doing railroad stuff and deacon goes back to Railroad HQ whenever i dismiss him.

Is there a reason why my character misses so damn much in VATS? I have 7 Perception and it seems like can't hit shit even with a 95% chance. Also I'm lvl 26 and only have the 1st perks for upgrading weapons and armor so in dying really damn fast. Is gun nut and science a must have? Also what about armorer?

i brought this up earlier and this game has done this same thing in fallout 3 and fallout new vegas. people responded "omg its statistics and makes sense!!!" and I said " fuck your statistics, these percentages arent working out"
and yes all those perks are a must have if you wanna mod your weapons/armor as you cannot otherwise.

Nvm, somehow got my character to move again. Already ran into a few more bugs.

Yea something must be wrong because I shouldn't be missing something that's 10 feet in front of me when I have a scoped hunting rifle. I'm reading posts of people one shotting everything and I don't see how, my character misses like crazy. I guess I have to get those perks then. Is there a way to respec because I feel like I've fucked up my character.

You have to remove that power core when you drop off armor.

And they said this game wasn't an RPG!
How do you even know you got a perk? I did 2 quests for McCready but I'm not sure if I got his perk.

Usually after you romance the companion. Top left says like Idolizes you and you get a big pop up where you have to hit okay.

So Fallout 4 is good at being Farcry with more light RPG elements, but a flaming dumpster of an actual RPG.
From the 10 hours I've played, can't say I disagree.
You can see what perks you have unlocked in your pip-boy
Edit: It's under the Stat tab --> Perks
You'll get a notification pop up telling you that you got the perk. Sometimes it takes awhile until the character likes you enough, or "idolizes" you.
Dutch Microwave

You'll actually notice it right away with Macready because it's bugged and breaks the game somewhat,
it gives you 20000% increase in headshot accuracy instead of 20% in VATS
I've gotten most of the perks and all I did was bring them along for the ride. Not once have I gone out of my way to do something they like.
Wait is that for real? I need to start bringing him with me permanently.
It's for real.
With that perk, no matter where you are, every headsot is at 95% chance of hitting.
And once you unlock a perk, it stays with you forever, no matter who you bring along with you.

Yes. The radio was working. I completed Taking Independence and it was on. Then I built a bell and rung it. It has been glitched since then.
Holy Christ.
I have lots of VATS. This gon be good.
Have a random, non-story mission bugging out for me. It's called "Human Error".
There's an optional objective to
The problem is,
Any tips or tricks? I'd be very grateful.
There's an optional objective to
investigate an attacked caravan. I spent about fifteen minutes searching for clues, and eventually looked up a youtube video to see what I was missing. Turns out it was a can of soda on the ground, which is branded as "Deezer's".
The problem is,
I can't pick the damn thing up. Well, to be exact, I can actually lift it up, and set it down again, holding down the interact button, but I can't actually collect it, nor can I get the optional objective to complete. I've tried fast travelling away, then back again, as well as asking a human companion to pick it up for me. Neither of those worked.
Any tips or tricks? I'd be very grateful.
From what I've heard if you wait for 48+ hours they'll go back to normal. Haven't tried it myself yet though.

You have to progress a good bit into Brotherhood's story to max out Danse's affection as it is tied to a story quest.
