fallout-4-chat

[waxen echo]

it's been too long for me, myself. I keep avoiding because I knnow it takes over my life, which is fine, but I need to have the time for it to take

and then 76 ended up sneaking up on me and doing it instead. it's an issue

[lilac saffron]

FO4 is fine on its own but then I wanna fix a few things and then it turns into a rabbit hole of "i want this mod, and i want this mod"

[waxen echo]

for sure. I alwyas start with "okay, mod the compaion flavour dialogue" and "mod out the dog barks/nail clicks" and "tidy up the faces a little nothign major. and suddenly it's 23 mods deep and I'm crying

[lilac saffron]

I didn't even get every mod I wanted in because of the blasted limited file size. Oh, the woes of a console only player

I literally just wanted a mod to make every armor piece equippable on any clothing piece, but it was too big and I didn't wanna sacrifice anything

[waxen echo]

ugh that sucks

[lilac saffron]

But I think I'm fine with what I have right now. The bare essentials at least, and then some mods to add more greenery and better lighting/graphics

[waxen echo]

ooo yes, I love the greenery mods

[lilac saffron]

The graphics mod I'm using is using like almost half the file space but it makes the game so much prettier

[waxen echo]

def worth it then. you gotta be abel to look at it if you're gonna spend hundreds of hours in it

[lilac saffron]

And then I'm using a mod to allow me to bring dogmeat, a robot companion, and a human companion all at once

[waxen echo]

absolute essential, definitely

[lilac saffron]

I'm definitely gonna use Ada, since I've never played the DLCs despite owning the GoTY edition

[waxen echo]

I like to have Dogmeat, MacCready, and Danse. I usually get "Danse GTFO Power Armour" mod (that's its name, mods)

[lilac saffron]

I was debating on getting a mod to make Danse keep his helmet on lol

[waxen echo]

nothing ruinig my immersion more than stompies when we're trying to sneak through stuff lol

clang clang clang

[lilac saffron]

Me trying to sneak around a raider base with Strong and Codsworth

[waxen echo]

lol

[vagrant rune]

I think it’s funny that Fallout Shelter Online does more stuff with Fallout 4’s ideas than Fallout 4 itself did

Minutemen making Concord into a full Minutemen camp/settlement, and having operations within the Museum of Freedom

That’s pretty neat, that should’ve been something we could’ve done in Fallout 4 itself

[blissful cypress]

Well that's the benefit of building upon something instead of creating something

[knotty granite]

Didn't the company that was making fso abandon the game or something

[vagrant rune]

Not sure, but there’s some neat ideas in it from what I’ve seen

Interesting art too, Institute art looks super nice

[knotty granite]

I thought it was coming to America too at some point

[rocky lava]

The Nuka cola pip boy paint job creation looks like the flag of china

[waxen echo]

👀

[smoky turret]

Anyone know replacer Place Anywhere Mod?

[quiet loom]

Any mods for the creation club tunnel snakes outfit? I would love to have customizable color on the lower part of the vault suit, also would love to have cool vault numbers on the back of the tunnel snakes shirt if possible

[untold fern]

if you can help me pls dm me game keeps crashing and its just vanilla F4

[waxen echo]

[knotty granite]

What console

[wise ore]

Still no news anywhere about the next gen console update? I was hoping to play again before Starfield

[vague basin]

Nope, and I wouldn't expect it before Starfield anyway.

[crystal ruin]

Vault 111 had the worst guards they died to like 16 radroaches

[pliant grotto]

No they didn't, read the terminals lol

||They mutinied against the science staff and overseer a few years after the bombs dropped, killed most of them, stole all the food supplies and ran off into the wasteland||

[crystal ruin]

Wait really?

I need to revisit the lore then I might be getting the vault wrong idk lol

[scarlet sky]

You need to read the terminals

[simple otter]

Does anyone else get “LOOKUP FAILED” on any creation club items? I do and it is even not letting me use one of them, the Atomic workshop. If anyone can help and Xbox Player out I would greatly appreciate it

[blissful cypress]

Yes the creation club stuff causes few issues thankfully this particular issue has a regular mod available to fix it. Or just delete data that has mod info & not reinstall cc mods

[dreamy zinc]

Is there a fix for discord overlay not working on fallout 4?

[torpid galleon]

LOOKUP FAILED messages are the result of outdated strings files in the game or mods as far as I'm aware.

[shell thistle]

Every time you ask, a little baby developer dies. 😁

[naive pasture]

So I did a bunch of side quests right after concord and before I went to the police station and diamond city

But doing fire support to further progress with the BOS, rhys and haylen’s quest wants me to go to far harbor to complete them, I have never had them do this before, is this normal?

I don’t want to do far harbor until I meet valentine so he can give me the quest himself. I know I can do it without him and before meeting him

[unborn blade]

Yeah same thing happened to me with P. A. M. And the railroad sending me to nuka world to kill a courser even though I hadn’t done anything to trigger the nuka world quests yet

[simple otter]

Mind clarifying?

[naive pasture]

Does anybody know why that highway by the super mutant building that’s in front of goodneighbor causes me to crash every time I go up it?

Going to shoot the raiders and then going to the shack or close to the monkey causes my game to crash for no reason

On Xbox S btw, knowing that the S is a little underperforming and lacking than the X

[simple otter]

I am on S trust me you aren’t missing much

[naive pasture]

I really want to kill that raider, it’s usually a legendary raider that will drop a random weapon

But I can’t cause the crashes gatekeep me from it

Is it the monkey that’s causing the crashes?

I shot it and suddenly no more crash but the game still staggers a bit

[static wave]

Do you have mods installed?

[naive pasture]

Full vanilla playthrough

This happened last playthrough too but I thought it was just because this glitched out flying car must’ve flown to the city and was causing it

I shot the monkey’s head and I did last time too and the crashes kind of stopped

[static wave]

I never have that happened to me tbh. With mods or vanilla. I believe the unofficial fan patch is also available for Xbox, perhaps you can try installing that.

[naive pasture]

Yeah I guess I could do that

It sucks I’ll have to be relying on a mod to fix it though but I think I have most of the achievements so far, a bunch of the others I need to unlock are if I’m really trying to 100% the game

[static wave]

There's a mod for that too that's available for Xbox, I believe. One where you can still get achievements with mods installed, on PC it's called "Get That" or "Achieve That". Perhaps for Xbox it has the same name.

[naive pasture]

I didn’t know mods could be able to bypass that

[static wave]

Well, on PC there is such a mod. I'm not sure about the console versions, unfortunately, so you'll have to look for it on your own.

[hearty vigil]

My wife is doing another play-through and has started the Fire Support quest for the BOS. She has killed everything and searched a number of times around College Square and subway station, but every time she goes back to dance, he is still saying there are hostiles! Is this a bug/glitch?

[warped inlet]

Has there been any news on the next gen update for fo4? They had mentioned it would come out in 2023

[static wave]

Well, she can try reloading a save from before she gets the quest.

[sturdy viper]

2023 isn't over yet

[hearty vigil]

May be the only remedy. Shae has sorta done the quest four times already with going over the area repeatedly. Makes her want to shoot dance! lol

[naive pasture]

Nooo I killed Edward the prompt to make him see what the Cabot’s were doing was wrong didn’t show up so I did something wrong at the start but I can’t go back because I found this really awesome stuff

it’s not like he was important but he was cool

Also because of that route I had to kill the sentry bot and mr handy

[shell thistle]

There is a mod called Keep Radiants In The Commonwealth that does this.
I don't think the devs were considering new players or even new characters when they made Far Harbor and Nuka World.

[shell thistle]

Try to fast travel out to a distant location, wait 3 game days, fast travel back. Failing that sometimes it's ghouls stuck in the walls and you have to use grenades or molotovs to flush them out. So yes a glitch.

[shell thistle]

And another baby developer dies. 😁

[shell thistle]

You don't normally need to kill them as they're not hostile but yes they will go hostile if you attack Deegan.
Any time you make NPCs hostile by mistake you can always run away and come back in 3 days and they will be fine. The exception is if you kill a named faction member (which may apply here).

[naive pasture]

They go inside the house to kill me as I’m having a conversation with Lorenzo after slaughtering the entire family

[shell thistle]

OK you didn't mention you sided with Lorenzo. In that case it's kill or be killed against Deegan, Jack and the whole household. What else did you expect?

[naive pasture]

Last time I had the option to convince Edward that what the Cabot’s were doing was wrong and kept him, Lorenzo, and the robots alive

I don’t know what I did wrong but I probably chose the wrong dialogue

[shell thistle]

Fair enough

[void stirrup]

When is the next anniversary

[waxen echo]

game came out november 2015 so lil bit longer

[void stirrup]

No I mean anniversary in general

[modern karma]

Can you use normal settlement stores to increase the happiness of raider outposts?

Just because the raider dealers don't have the bar shape and it won't fit in any of the structures I built

[void stirrup]

Can you find heavy sniper rifle with legendary effect explosion

[blissful cypress]

Heavy sniper rifle?

[modern karma]

If I have the beta wave emitter on, will caged creatures still be hostile to each other? Asking for a friend (me) who wants to set up a death claw fight arena in their raider town

[waxen echo]

I know it's possible to make a fighting pit, but I believe you don't want them chilled out and free roaming.

[unkempt cliff]

If you’re using cages and playing on console, be sure to check out Cages Overhauled by 3lric; it’s a great mod.
totally not spruiking it just because I happen to be in it

[pure sigil]

@modern karma the emitter makes them non hostile to you and your settlers. They will still be aggressive to creatures of a different kind and enemy raiders attacking your settlement.

[modern karma]

Would they be aggressive to creatures of the same kind?

[gloomy mauve]

Hello, can anyone please help me with my fallout 4?

[waxen echo]

#fallout-support #1087805680829857822

[neat temple]

Does anybody know when the next gen is coming out

[shell thistle]

Yes Explosive is allowed on hunting rifles bolt action rifles and pipe rifles

[shell thistle]

Only if they normally are hostile to their own kind

[shell thistle]

Every time you ask, a baby angel dies in a blender.

[void stirrup]

No I mean heavy variant of the sniper rifle explosive effect

[neat temple]

Uhh

[shell thistle]

Variants don't matter

Well actually variants do sometimes matter but not in this case

[void stirrup]

They do if you want damage

[shell thistle]

They don't matter as to whether you get a legendary effect on the weapon.

You can also add or remove any mods to a legendary weapon after you get it.

So you can find a basic short hunting rifle with Explosive and mod it to be a powerful super sniper.

Explosive is not a great effect on a sniper rifle anyway.

Two Shot or Instigating is better

[void stirrup]

It is if you want automatic

[shell thistle]

There are no automatic sniper rifles

Except basic pipe "snipers"

Those (only) are good with Explosive

In automatic you can only get those in 38 cal. So weak for damage. The Explosive needs to do all the work. But at least the ammo is cheap.

A pipe gun with Explosive is cheaper to run than Spray and Pray, and easier to mod up. A pipe gun with Explosive is a great drop. A bolt action pipe or hunting/sniper rifle with Explosive, kind of a waste.

[hearty swift]

I encourage you to read the wiki of Arthur Maxon as it demonstrates what ive been saying. Arthur is a mix of elder lyons BoS and the original BoS being much more lienent with allowing people to keep more advanced technology like laser and plasma weapons. Arthurs concern is really only extreme technologies such as synth production

He regularly talks about how he cares for the people of the commonwealth and wants to end this chaos so they don’t have to hide away in places like diamond city anymore, this sentiment is also echoed by Danse.

As far as super mutants go, its confirmed that prolonged exposer to the FEV makes the change’s permanent as noted by brian virgil meaning that most if not all of the supermutants are permanently mutated.

[void stirrup]

I found a heavy combat two shot shotgun

[hollow bison]

Next gen of what?

[rough glade]

Any news on next gen update or is it still no

[rough glade]

I’ll take that as a no RIP I don’t think we are ever get get that next gen update

[shell thistle]

Ad victoriam, brother!

[shell thistle]

That might be very underwhelming if it only added one projectile. So you would get 7 instead of 6.
However "two shot" is really just "add base damage again". So it's probably pretty darn good on a shotgun.

[shell thistle]

Star Trek 😁

[white vessel]

Why does my game keep going gray after i blow up the institute with the brother hood of steel

[hollow bison]

Visual bug?

[white vessel]

no my game freezes

it goes gray right before the cutsene happens

[rough glade]

Oh no!

[hollow bison]

Have you tried waiting though to see if it’s just a weird visual?

[white vessel]

yea i sat there for like 5 minutes

there is also now sound and the only way out is restarting my computer

[hollow bison]

You have to completely turn of your pc?

[white vessel]

yes

idk why ive googled it and have gotten zero answers

ive unistalled aswell

[rough glade]

….we never getting that next gen update

[hollow bison]

I think it might be a files thing, but I’m not completely sure. Do you use steam?

[white vessel]

yea i do

[hollow bison]

You might have already tried it, but have you tried the “repair game” option?

[white vessel]

no i didnt know that was a thing

[hollow bison]

Wait idk if it’s a thing

Lemme check, one second

[white vessel]

ok thank you

[long plank]

Are you on steam?

[white vessel]

yes

[hollow bison]

There isn’t one on steam, but if you could look for a repair application if you have it as an icon on your homepage.

[white vessel]

ok

[long plank]

https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/25561

[hollow bison]

Actually you could probably search up how to repair the files for Fo4, Im not an expert at dealing with files and such.

[long plank]

shows 76, but its the same for FO4

[white vessel]

the game runs fine its just when i blow up the istitute my game goes gray its not right after i blow it up its when its about to load the cutscene thats when it goes gray

[long plank]

Are you running mods?

[white vessel]

no

this is my first play through so i wanted it to be vanilla

[severe berry]

Actually there is, it is called 'Verify integrity of game files'. Right click the game in your Steam Library and select 'Properties'. Next select 'Installed Files' and then you should see 'verify integrity of game files' as an option.

[hollow bison]

I see. @white vessel If you could, try this and it might help with your problem. (I hope I didn’t disturb you with my ping, if I did, sorry)

[white vessel]

you didnt disturb me at all thank you guys for helping me i will give this a try

[hollow bison]

Did it work?

[white vessel]

no

[desert idol]

i got a question. i bought the european version of fallout 4 for the UK but i am in the USA and have xbox store settings set to USA does seasons pass still work for UK version even though i am using the US store?

[shell thistle]

There is a repair files option in Steam. It's maybe not called exactly that but that's what it does. Look under properties of the game in Steam.

[torpid galleon]

Is there a known list of CC mod worldspace/interior issues, so I know what to be on the lookout for in PRP testing? I'm aware that apparently there's a reference that might need moved with the X-02 one?

[hollow bison]

It might be an issue with your computer, but at this point I don’t really know how to help you. I would say go a different route for the storyline but exploding the institute is honestly the best ending

[rocky stream]

I don't want to use mods to accelerate de loading screens time because it will block my trophies.... what can I do?

[shell thistle]

On PC use the unblock trophies with mods mod.

[sullen bluff]

I check periodically and am amazed everyone seems to have forgotten about it (?). I was honestly hoping they'd drop it during the Starfield show like they dropped Fallout Shelter. I know Starfield is the priority but I'd presumed they had a specific team for it (Skyrim Legendary team maybe)

I'm honestly hoping they'll add some off the CAMP-related items from 76. But that's a stretch

[void stirrup]

Yeah it did about 400 damage

[rocky stream]

so there is a mod that enable thophies againg?

[pure sigil]

Yes, type Achievements Mods Enabler in Nexus fo4's search bar.

Works without f4se if you're not using that for any other mods.

If using f4se there is another just called Achievements

[leaden blade]

yo, I just found something weird. I'm travelling with Danse for the first time, and I'm in Bunker Hill. Tony and Joe are talking, Tony want's to join the Railroad, Joe doesn't want him to. If I agree you should support others, and say synths are the enemy, Danse dislikes the first response and hates the second. If I say you should look out for yourself, and join the Railroad, Danse hates the first and dislikes the second. Just a little werid tidbit I learned today.

I also learned you can make Bunker Hill a settlement. Only took me 500 hours to learn that one lmao

[magic current]

XD the sound design in the character creation screens so good i keep thinking i left a tap on in my bathroom cuz i space out

[shell thistle]

That's a known bug - him hating when you say synths are the enemy. That response should depend on where he is on his personal arc.
As for getting Bunker Hill - yes that's a well kept secret. Many hoops to jump through to get it (multiple ways).

[real sky]

I was moving my guns from red rocket to the castle (I had danse on farming at the time) and as the vertbird landed everything started shooting at it. Over 100 defence is kinda powerful

[naive pasture]

Does anybody know if characters with their own clothing get it back in a few days after pickpocketing it off them?

I don’t have pickpocketing maxxed yet however I want Cito’s outfit, looks sick

[proven bluff]

No

Clothing are static

[empty orbit]

Yes it does after a bit I did it with cito when completing his missions and he had it back at the end of the quests

[proud raptor]

I'm giving Fallout 4 another shot after many false starts and here is main issue with the game:

• your wife has just been murdered
• your son has just been kidnapped
• with that experience fresh in your mind the game wants you to build settlements and offers you lots and lots of side quests other than JUST AVENGING THE MURDER OF YOUR WIFE AND FINDING YOUR KIDNAPPED CHILD

[naive pasture]

Yes, the story is short, while it’s all of the side quests that actually fills the rest of the game

[proud raptor]

But the main quest is also at odds with the rest of the game. Feels misplaced.

[naive pasture]

Basically
• ||get out of vault
• find answers
• go to diamond city
• noir detective time haha
• find out the institute uses teleportation
• find a way in
• SON
• boom||

[naive pasture]

It really does

[proud raptor]

Okay, not sure I need spoilers beyond the first 30 minutes...

[naive pasture]

OH

[proud raptor]

But I guess it's also X years old at this point

[naive pasture]

I’m sorry I thought you played it before

[proud raptor]

I've starte a few times but never gotten very far before being put off. Mostly playing it now to get familiar with the setting to run a Fallout 2d20 game.

[naive pasture]

just a tip don’t feel pressured about taking care of settlements

I did that when I first started playing, I think I spent most of my time building than doing anything else

[proud raptor]

Yea.. just feels like you either have to ignore the main quest side of things or ignore all the other mechanics in the game.

[naive pasture]

yeah there’s a lot of stuff that tends to throw you off

[visual pollen]

Or just blow off Preston Garveys head

[sullen frost]

this tbh installed the mod to mute him

[naive pasture]

So I made settlers go to the red rocket gas station

Probably a big mistake since I use it as my main base (for now) and so they treat it like they own the place so I get the raider quests from them and if all fails I might lose the claim but oh well

At least it’s good because I have all of my companions there so accepting the quest and completing it gives me affinity from pretty much 3-4 companions at once

[shell thistle]

You were hostile to the BoS I guess? Or you aggro'd the Vertibird.

[shell thistle]

No no. Yes. Settlers will respawn anything you take off them. This can be farmed for low level caps.

[blissful cypress]

Yeah the story & how it's structured always seemed odd to me. I just tried to ignore it so I could enjoy

[shell thistle]

Yeah it's a shamelessly manipulative plot that fails even to follow through on its own shameless manipulation.
Just one time I want to play FO4 in full Liam Neeson mode. But you would just die. You are not up to the challenge (certainly not as a new player). It's a stupid setup.
What they should have done is give you a reason to believe Shaun is dead and it all happened a long time ago and there's nothing you can do. Let you build up strength during Act 1. Then at the end of Act 1 do a big reveal that Shaun is still alive and the people who killed your spouse are still alive.
But for some reason Todd didn't want me on his writing team. 😁

There also should be people (Mama Murphy) telling you you're not ready and you need to prep up first.

The whole main quest runs on fake time pressure.

And fake timing. Whenever you arrive somewhere, the plot just happened. Whether you take a day, a week, a month or ten years to get there.

This is the really stupid triple fake that boils my blood. They should just tell you at the outset that the scene in the Vault is a hundred years earlier. Then you would accept your loss and move on and have no expectation you need to do anything urgently. You might want to know what happened to Shaun and you might want to know who was responsible but none of it would be deadly urgent.
Instead - OMFG - they full on cheat, "Lost" style, "24" style, to prevent you from learning this obvious fact. The Vault 111 terminal log entries are some of the only ones that don't have a date stamp. You're telling me that life support failure on a cryopod doesn't warrant a datetime stamp in the log? Cheating. All to prop up the weak plot "twist".

And it's totally self defeating because the game needs you to not rush. So why set up the ultimate "Omg rush!" motivation when (1) it's false and fake (2) you have to cheat and insult the player's intelligence to do it and (3) it's totally contrary to how you want and need the player to play the game (slow exploration and levelling).

I swear when the writers came up with the main quest plot, they were SO heavily stoned. 😁

Plus the level of collusion is insulting. Because (spoiler reasons) literally every settlement dweller should know Kellog by face and by name. He should literally be the most (in)famous person in the Commonwealth and nobody should be in any doubt who he represents / works for either. So you don't need Nick to tell you that Kellog came into (spoiler location) in the company of (spoiler NPC). It would be a rare person you meet in the game who doesn't know those facts. And anyone in (spoiler location) could tell you where he was shacked up. No needy Nicky!

Like you could literally say to anyone in the Commonwealth "I'm looking for my kid" and there's a better than average chance they would say "well there's this one bad dude who...". Chance rising to nearly 100% in (spoiler location). Like even if you didn't say you were looking for a lost kid you would inevitably hear that in (spoiler location) just as gossip. And (being recent events) far more likely to be mentioned than "there's a raider bar downtown" or "spooky goings on in Salem".

Speaking of which - there should be a way to pick up Kellog's trail from University Point.
And maybe other places.

And even Liam Neeson knows you don't find your lost child by killing the only person you meet who might know where the child is, as soon as you meet them.
🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[pliant grotto]

bro we get it you've been at this for almost an hour

rudeness aside, that isn't the point; you've been rambling unprompted and unresponded to about how the game's story is terrible and awful and the writers were idiots who don't respect the players for an irritatingly long time. you're entitled to your opinions and I don't entirely disagree but by god man we get it

[vague basin]

It's an RPG centered around you, the player. If the plot advanced without your input and not under your control, people would be a lot more upset about that.

[shell thistle]

Yeah that's totally true and just a constraint of game design.

I just wish sometimes they could hide the cracks a little better. 😁

[shell thistle]

They could (as a design choice) implement real timers and real deadlines. I get why they chose not to do that. It leads to a more relaxed game style and I don't mind that at all. I enjoy it in fact. But (to @proud raptor 's point) that easy going time design is totally at odds with what they set up as the imperative PC motivations for the main quest.

[shell thistle]

"unprompted"??
I'm responding to the points made by @proud raptor

[vague basin]

Every RPG i've ever played has had that same implication of urgency that you can promptly ignore to go chase the shinys. Usually for as long as you want, and the plot will still be there waiting for you.

[shell thistle]

It's a trope but that doesn't make it right 😁

I am fine with it though

[vague basin]

There's a good reason for it - play Daggerfall some time where quests actually do have time limits and penalties for not completing them. It makes for a miserable time IMO.

[shell thistle]

I just think they could make the story align to that non-urgency better

[pliant grotto]

Yeah, points made three hours beforehand that the conversation had just moved on from, and regardless my point about it being "unprompted" was more that you just kept posting and posting and posting for 28 minutes straight, sometimes with minutes between them as though you were hoping someone would say something to prompt you further. The conversation you wanted to start clearly wasn't happening and you just kept going

[shell thistle]

Yeah I know. Its like they tried it one way and it didn't work so they tried it the other way.
As I said I don't mind it, I just wish they would align the story with the mechanics.

[pliant grotto]

But whatever, it's happening now, let's drop it

[shell thistle]

We are not all in the time zone and we don't all have the same working hours etc. I get to this when I get to it. Chill.

[pliant grotto]

Look to be clear my main problem here has been your tone. You came in swinging with "it's manipulative, it's shameless, it boils my blood how stupid it is, i swear they were on drugs when they wrote this because how else could they be stupid enough to write this garbage" -- look, I don't disagree that Fallout 4's plot has major problems, but when you're being this much of a relentlessly negative downer for half an hour straight it gets irritating. Especially when it's in response to a topic that the chat had already moved on from

[long plank]

Move on

How do I get fallout 4 full screen to work

As it’s just popping up in my corner and breaking it’s weird

[pliant grotto]

Have you tried borderless windowed?

[void stirrup]

God i hope that update comes

[sturdy viper]

🛑

It will, there's still five and a half months left in 2023.

[silent turret]

They’ll probably release a trailer a week or two after starfield releases

Just speculation

[sturdy viper]

I figure Halloween cuz Halloween decorations were all over Fallout 4, but I don't remember them in 3 or New Vegas.

The same way power armor, was an earned right, not a submarine hatch.

[naive pasture]

Does things like equipped item weight affect companions stealth or likelihood to be seen?

or are companions ai just bad and prone to being seen

Like will the lightweight shadowed leather armor help them out

Or does only their SPECIAL affect their stealth

[sturdy viper]

Companion from what I know, have no effect on stealth... meaning walk around with Piper in the middle of a Raider dungeon.

However though I do believe they will attack somebody, if they're hostile towards you, but usually unless you attack first or spotted the companion doesn't.

[naive pasture]

When I’m not spotted maccready gets seen and then shoots enemies

So he fights while I’m still hidden

I’m in Quincy trying to make sure he doesn’t steal the kills from me since there are named gunners here

uh for some reason Clint got out of his power armor making this 10x easier

[real sky]

Nah, i was sentinel but danse started shooting at it which triggered everyone to fire

[shell thistle]

Ah makes sense. Was that Danse post- Blind Betrayal then?

[real sky]

Yeah, i stopped maxon and sent him to the castle

[shell thistle]

I think there's one exception to this which is Ada?

[hollow bison]

What update?

[crimson vortex]

Wait their a update coming

[pliant grotto]

Just a port to next gen consoles

Probably with some texture upscaling and performance tweaks/fixes

They billed it as a “next-gen update” which has a lot of people convinced this is gonna be some kind of huge HD remaster upgrade

[waxen echo]

and they've said null about it since so someone asks about every day, or a few times a day

[sage knoll]

Tempted to try to make it to max level in fallout 4 in only sanctuary because boredom

[waxen echo]

can't be any weirder than "I get one tile every kill" run

you'd probably have to define your boundaries a little outwards to be able to loot to even be able to build to be able to level. OR just kill a LOT of trapped enemies. I've got a memory that there's a "Can't Leave" Sanctuary version out there on the youtubes

[scarlet sky]

Draining action points for walking is more logical. Make it a value of a days travel more or less. Change the drain rate to coincide with that. So prob less drain. More you do less you can travel. It would even make it interesting to change the vats accordingly too.

And when "at rest" regenerate a small amount or dif rates for dif rests.

More rpgish

[waxen echo]

that's an interesting challenge too. I'm itching to do the "you can't leave the road" personally

[hoary mango]

Started playing FO4 yesterday. I'm liking the game so far but why the hell are the load times taking minutes on an SSD?

[waxen echo]

someone mentioned there's a mod to fix it last week. I don't know the name, but it's def just for load times

all that to say I don't know the actual reason why it takes so long

[sour jay]

I need to vent.

I'm playing Fallout 4 for the first time, and I've invested heavily into settlement building, and decorating them with junk items. I've learned the hard way how absolutely terrible the game engine is about items staying where they are placed. Items keep falling through refrigerator shelves. Items I'd put on tables and shelves in Oberland Station were found on the ground outside the house. An entire car once disappeared from Starlight Drive-In without a trace. But all of that I was able to recover from and retrive the items somehow. This time I can't, and it frustrates me to hell and back.

The game has a very limited number of special picture frames with actual pictures on them. I've found 19 total in the entire world so far. Of course only in the open world, since you have to drag them because the picture disappears if you pick them up. I had six of them stored in County Crossing waiting for me to decide what to do with them, and now three of them are gone. They were stored in a bathtub specifically to protect them from being lost, and now only two were left, with one more on the ground next to it. Now, if a sentry bot had exploded next to them, I'd understand, and I could reload a save if I could not find them. But here, nothing happened and I have no save to load.

This is now the third time the game has screwed me over in a way that I did not even find out about until much later when it was too late to do anything about it, even using mods. I'm seriously starting to hate this.

[waxen echo]

if you play on a platform that allows mods you should look into OC Decorator. Creating proper static objects helps with weird loading things like you're experiencing with stuff moving around on you

[warped tiger]

Fallout trick for you! Don't level up "IDIOT SAVANT" to level 3. On level 3 it gives the perk a "cool down" meaning it only allows you to use it again after a certain amount of time. Keeping it at level 5 will allow you to have no cooldown and gives you a point to spend elsewhere.

[shell thistle]

There is, by Joov I think.

[shell thistle]

AFAIK there is no such thing as max level in FO4. What I do know is that you will get really bored. 😁

[sage knoll]

Yeah but I mean all perks 😭

[shell thistle]

?
5 > 3

[warped tiger]

Yes. 5 ≠ 3kills. 5>3Kills

3kills has cooldown to use X5 exp.

5x has no cooldown, meaning it's easier to rack up XP and faster in comparison to 3kills.

I am calling the level 3 of idiot savant "3kills" here. To explain it easier.

[naive pasture]

Just finished the vault 88 quests

But now for some reason outside, the shadows and shading lighting only appear as I get closer to it

I’ll send it in #screenshots-and-video as soon as the clip uploads

But I don’t know how to fix this

Errr it keeps redirecting to the elder scrolls screenshots and videos

[shell thistle]

You are saying "keep it at level 5x" because there is no cool down but still
5 > 3
So how do you "keep it at level 5x" when 5 > 3?
Do you mean "keep it at level 3x because there's a cool down at level 5x but no cool down at level 3x"?
That would make sense

Otherwise how are you "saving a Perk point"?

[naive pasture]

So restarting my Xbox with the game closed didnt fix it

But for some reason restarting my Xbox with the game open fixed it

[wary bronze]

So I was replaying fallout 4, and I romanced Preston.

Some reason it got me thinking, with the emerging AI gaming possibilities, imagine how nuts the fallout games could get, or imagine a fallout game in vr that literally anything is possible, AI voices that are trained using voice actors, authentic responses, authentic events.

It’s got me really excited for the future of vr gaming and gaming as a whole, and the best part is I may be alive to see it!

[mortal wraith]

Fallout 4 VR modded does exactly this

you can just get FO4 VR and mod it to do these things

[wary bronze]

That’s not what I mean

I mean full immersive gameplay, with ai that actually talk and sound like the NPC’s, and a true impact that what happens in game affects other things in game

Sorry dyno

If I where to massacre a bunch of people, or the entirety of diamond city, raiders would recognize that and be like “yo, he killed a lot of people, we shouldn’t mess with him”

It’s really difficult to explain

[sour jay]

I have, and honestly I don't think OCDecorator is that great. Yes, items built using it don't move, but finding the item you want can take a while. Also, you need to be able to actually build, so you can't use it to decorate places like the Atom Cats Garage without additional mods. And it does not work at all for this specific problem, because it does not respect the unique pictures on the special frames - it erases them just like picking them up does. Best tool I have found is Qwapa, which allows you to place things normally and make them static with minimal effort.

I have an update by the way. I searched for the missing pictures. I used mods that allow me to scrap everything, and tore down the entire settlement. Trash piles, plants, buildings, even the water puddle, just to see if the missing pictures were lurking somewhere. Found nothing. I was about to give up, and then found one of them next to the pile of crashed cars outside the settlement. Started to scrap stuff outside the settlement, and soon found another one just inside the ruined power plant.

The third one is elusive though. I've scrapped and combed the entire area unlocked by the Build Anywhere mod - and that is huge. Searched everywhere between the bridge to Charlestown and the National Guard Training Yard. I even dismantled the buildings there on the off chance that the picture frame had landed on the roof. I also discovered that granite walls can't be built over junk, so dragged them all over the area looking for spots were they would flicker red. All I found was one suspicious spot in County Crossing, which was caused by a plank scaled to the size of a toothpick. Not kidding. I used Qwapa to put an upside down fast travel point underground, and managed to glitch myself there for a look. No luck.

By this point, I'm pretty damn sure that the missing picture is not within a mile of County Crossing. Odds are it is somewhere though. I wonder if it appears somewhere when the area next resets, or just disappears from the game entirely?

[wary bronze]

Imagine having the ability to just think of something that happens in the game, and it happens

[sour jay]

Not really... I get it. I get somewhat annoyed by how little my choices matter in the game.

[wary bronze]

Like imagining Sanctuary was this built up settlement, and then boom, when you get out the vault, it’s all built up

[sour jay]

Like, raiders and gunners are supposed to be people. But they just attack me on sight every time. You'd think they'd learn. But you never hear them say, "Damn, that's the Minutemen General! Run awaaaay!"

[wary bronze]

Ye

Or the ability to have an army with you at any given time, like I get fallout commander exists (great mod you should get btw), but I want some way to speak into a mic and be like “yo I’m gettin my ass kicked, me need help”

And a vertibird with minutemen or gunners or whatever on it appear and stuff

Start properly mowing down whoever is doing the attacking

What I really want tho, is the ability to create your own faction using AI, what I wouldn’t give for a faction that believes in absolute destruction, so I can massacre Bunker Hill, Diamond City, Sanctuary, everything.

[wary bronze]

And also, environment damage, if I throw a Molotov cocktail at someone’s house, it will burn down, if I throw an explosive at a metal house, it will collapse and possibly kill anyone inside if there is someone inside

I want a faction where I can go to a guy and be like “yo, I wanna blow up diamond city” and they’ll be like “shiiii, les go bro”

Not shank from nuka world.

[sour jay]

Okay, we're no longer on the same page. Even raiders are not so psychotic that they would want to kill everyone and destroy everything for no reason. Never mind how implausible having multiple mass murderers like that would be, why would they not kill each other as well? So, I say no. The game does not need a faction like that.

[wary bronze]

No listen, I want the possibility of that

An AI driven game, where the players choices truly make an impact

If the player was a psycho, they could meet with other psycho people and start a giant psycho group where they do crazy psycho things, like blowing up settlements

If the player was an upstanding person, they could form up with the minuteman, and with an ai driven game, I want the person to TRULY FEEL like they’re in charge of a massive army of good people

[wary bronze]

And that’s the raiders whole thing……

[sour jay]

If you want choices to matter, you also have to accept that NPCs don't agree with your choices. The idea that anyone would agree with a plan to blow up Diamond City just because is too far out. Even a raider would just think, "Uh, this person is completely crazy. I better run while I can." They would disappear at the first opportunity, or slit your throat when you sleep, because they would want nothing to do with you.

You already can be an upstanding person, and you can be in charge of an army of Minutemen. You have a flare gun which you can use to summon allies. What more do you want? Thousands of soldiers on the screen at once? It would not even be the same game any more.

[wary bronze]

No, read carefully.

An AI. Driven. Game.

And I guarantee SOMEONE out in the commonwealth would want to destroy diamond city

[wary bronze]

And that’s where the think part comes in, just imagining a group of people who want to blow up diamond city, boom

Advanced stuff we won’t see for YEARS, sure, but still

[sour jay]

"Most dreams are safe, because you never attempt to make them reality." Lots of people probably hate Diamond City. Ghouls who were exiled from there, probably. But enough to want to kill everyone there? Enough to actually try? I doubt it. Even in the Commonwealth, you can't find many people that psychotic.

In the game, there was that one madman who wanted to destroy Goodneighbor in the Silver Shroud quest. One, and you can scare his entire team to abandon him.

[wary bronze]

It’s a game.

[sour jay]

Even games have their rules. Okay, suppose that I imagine a bunch of valkyries showing up riding pegasi who strike down every Vertibird in the sky, then build a utopia on Earth. And it just happens, never mind if it makes any sense. No, I would not want that. Yes, I would want player choices to matter more, but it needs to stay consistent within how the world works. An entire faction of serial killers would stretch my suspension of disbelief way beyond breaking point.

[wary bronze]

If you’re imagining a bunch of pegasi do that, then probably would want that to happen.

Just never mind

Go do whatever you where doing

[sour jay]

I probably would. But not in Fallout 4. I'd want that in an entirely different game. I have different interests, some cutesy and benign, some gritty and grim. They don't mix that easily.

[eternal mica]

guys quick one: My GOTY version is crashing in certain spots on the map on Series S. Is there anything I can do besides load the Unofficial Patch? I'd like to keep having achievements...

[sour jay]

Exactly what do you do when the crash occurs? I'm on PS5 myself, so my issues are likely not the same, but I have had crashes and identifying the root cause helps me avoid them.

[keen verge]

i curently have a bug i dont know how to handel so i open the game and boot it up and then once i get to the main menu it seems to freeze as i just cant do anything there not even close it i have to use steam or task manager to close it

[eternal mica]

It varies from simply walking to a specific area, boom crash, or some other times even when fighting with enemies, or looting the last item off them...

[sour jay]

I've had a couple game freezes like that. The most recent was near Boston Common. I was just walking by, when the game completely froze. I restarted and walked past the area again, no issue. My best guess is that the game ran out of memory because I'd been in too many areas that session.

Maybe you can try saving near a problem area, then reloading the save before continuing? That might force the game to clear unnecessary things from its memory.

[eternal mica]

Thanks for the advice! Yeah my crashes are pretty much just spit out of the game completely, they're not freezes.

[sour jay]

Two things I've discovered which will cause crashes is loading the game in two indoor areas and then trying to exit. Those are the cellar in Sanctuary and the mole rat den under Red Rocket. Saving in those two places is just a bad idea. Another tends to happen when I'm crafting, and I realized it is because the game can get confused which item you are currently modifying. If you have another item in your inventory with the mod you are adding already attached, it can cause a crash. So, just don't have a lot of items of the same type in your inventory while crafting.

[eternal mica]

Awesome, thank you!

[keen verge]

since its not letting me load anything i dont even know what could cause that also i have no cursor

[sour jay]

If the game has worked for you before, I'd look into anything that has changed recently. Any new updates, new installed programs? Some processes running in the background eating up memory? New mods installed? If there was anything like that, I'd try reversing it and see if it helps.

You could also try removing your settings and save files. If any of them have somehow gotten corrupted, the game might get stuck trying to read it. Don't delete them of course, try to isolate which file is bad and keep the rest.

And if that does not help, reinstalling the game is always an option.

I don't have the PC version of the game mind you. This is just general troubleshooting advice.

[dusky verge]

nothing will ever beat the intrigue of a good well written story. ai games are interesting conceptually, but literally, unless they can create a consistent and thematic narrative around player choice, they will never be as good as the worst manmade story

i mean look at dungeons and dragons. its not fun because when you play the game you can do anything, its fun because you have a storyteller guiding you and adapting to your choices and to see where they take you.

ai dungeon is a pretty good example of why these systems are flawed, they are interesting sandboxes to mess around in but they are toys compared to what GOOD WRITING DOES

[wary bronze]

So mix the two? Have a good narrative or story that follows with ai

Ai voices, and what not

[dusky verge]

because would i rather listen to something written automatically than listen to something crafted, something with charm, real world significance, with all the charms and quirks, and even more so the flaws of someone trying to create something beautiful to the best of their ability?

ai will never have the personality and the truth that comes from human creativity and art. it will be a sad day when we lose that.

[kindred coyote]

Frankly theres some stuff out of the realm of what ai does qualitatively that makes it an issue for what you need npcs etc to do.

[pliant grotto]

sure just render an entire sector of the acting industry obsolete and open to exploitation that won't ruin anyone's lives or career aspirations

even if some regulations pass where VAs get residuals from AIs trained to mimic their voice, you're dreaming if you think that any AI development house or entertainment studio is going to pay out enough for those residuals to sustain a career

[kindred coyote]

Ai voices is currently feasible but im less clear on making it "act." Ai Luke in the Boba Fett show is well... stuck in the tone of Mark Hamill reading a audiobook

[dusky verge]

PREACH

[pliant grotto]

AI has applications creatively but the avenues its currently being developed along seem almost entirely focused on reducing the number of people that need to be paid in order to make an entertainment product -- and the amount those people need to be paid -- to their absolute minimum, which is in the long run bad for pretty much everyone who makes a living through acting, art, etc

[dusky verge]

its an attempt to make media more disposable than ever

[opal stone]

Imagine Luke speaking like his Joker performances.

Most recent one was "The Killing Joke" IIRC.

[pliant grotto]

They could have done so much better just hiring a soundalike or impressionist but they would have had to pay such a person, and the fee would probably have been higher than whatever paltry sum they offered Hammill for the use and remixing of archived audio from his past performances

Sure AI voicing will eventually get to the point where the cheaper option is just as good but that only solves problems for the creators and audience, not the people who are losing work to this nonsense

[dusky verge]

which is why its up to us as audiences to demand better and to assume critical viewpoints

[kindred coyote]

I mean its also somewhat up to the current SAG strike.

[wary bronze]

You’d still need Voice Actors for the AI voices to train from, while you could make a voice from scratch, it wouldn’t sound NEAR as good as a trained voice

Also love the name

[sour jay]

I would not mind some AI voices, but they would have to be done right, and used in the right contexts.

I have fond memories of an old game from 1985, which included voices using early MacinTalk. They were crude, and they were hilarious. That is the one game where I can honestly say that the in-game ads were as fun as the game itself. You would not have wanted to pay to get rid of them.

The dialogue was of course human written, only the voice was synthesized.

[pliant grotto]

Again, this is something that would drastically reduce the amount of time and skill needed for voice performances and thereby drastically reduce the wages for it. Voice Actors may still be needed but it'd be reduced to something you can get a mildly talented intern to do for pennies on the dollar. An entire viable career path will close almost entirely, forever, and an entire industry and all the people whose lives it supports will collapse.

[wary bronze]

Fair

Still tho, ai voices.

[sour jay]

I would not expect AI voices to break through any time soon. They might sound like a human, even a specific human, but is AI ever going to be able to capture the right emotion and mood to convey? I rather doubt it.

[kindred coyote]

Luke in Boba Fett is sorta the hint on where thats at.

[pliant grotto]

It's still something to be concerned about and to be worth standing against. Demand creates supply and drives business practices. If people keep resoundingly saying they're OK with AI voices being used as long as they aren't crap, companies will still keep developing ways to make it "better" and to minimize the amount they need to spend on it. Shrugging our shoulders and saying "well, I only care if it's bad" just encourages them to make it better, not to treat their talent better.

[dusky verge]

the technology is going to rapidly expand, but will it ever actually be good for voice actors? i mean think from their perspective. if you make a certain amount of money fron voicing a character in a game, would you rather make the money from creating those voice lines, which places your skill and technique in balance (admittedly not a perfect balance) with your pay and recognition in the industry, or would you rather make a voice imprint and then lose all control over how much you can make from that? keep in mind that voice actors dont usually make royalties from their work and they also dont get paid a lot for what they do overall.

[opal stone]

If I was to make a game during this time frame, I'd make it have only robots and run AI robotic voices.

[shell thistle]

Very interesting video from Tim Cain on the real purpose of the Vaults:
https://youtu.be/oWd4RBdeoaM

[shell thistle]

There is a definite lack of self-preservation in the NPCs and creatures and a lack of recognition when they are outclassed. Sure it's a Hollywood trope but it's literally unnatural: living creatures (and probably most robots) prioritise their own survival over being pointless cannon fodder. Because it's unnatural, it ends up being immersion breaking. It's also immersion breaking because it has no arc. Sure raiders, mutants etc should treat you as prey in the beginning of the game but by the mid game they should be aware you are a challenge and then maybe fear you.
In particular since raiders are humans it should be possible to negotiate with them more - intimidate, bribe, pay them off, trade with them, recruit them. Or even join them (and I don't mean Nuka World). It's canon that all kinds of "citizens" become raiders so why can't the PC do that?

[dusky verge]

youd have to significantly scale down the system of raiders and locations involving them, but this would be a welcome system in my opinions. sort of like the powder gangers and fiends and great khans in fallout new vegas

but you'd have to define the morals of the main story along different lines

god this just reminds me how much better fallout new vegas handles morality than fallout 4

[maiden token]

i never understood fully
are gen 3 synths robots or are they more like blade runner replicants

[pliant grotto]

Honestly, yes, expanding how enemies react to you with regards to your reputation, accomplishments, and abilities is something that more games should do and that Fallout is in a prime position for

[dapper hare]

I always figured that Raiders and Gunners were generally too whacked out on chems to be thinking rationally, plus maybe they've got a little too much radiation damage to their brains.

[pliant grotto]

they're closer to replicants yes. the only inorganic part of them is the chip in their brain; their "components" are all essentially flash-cloned and in some cases genetically-enhanced human bones/organs/etc that are assembled and then... zapped to life somehow in the robotics division's factory

[dusky verge]

something like the inate electricity that allows a human body to function, which actually makes a lot of sense when you consider that the railroad believes synths count as humans, in a way they might actually be the first forms of artificial life

[pliant grotto]

The latter leans a bit much into validating Enclave propaganda tbqh. But I think there's definite room for improvement with enemy AI reactivity. Just having the last enemy in a group surrender or flee if you defeat their allies fast/brutally/efficiently enough would be a major first step

[dusky verge]

tbf there are pacifying perks somewhere in the charisma tree in fallout 4

[pliant grotto]

Yeah, the pacification system is neat but having it gated behind a perk and applicable even in the middle of a massive firefight always felt off. Could definitely be worked organically into gameplay in a better fashion

[dusky verge]

but theyre like charisma 8 and 10 which is so strange it makes me miss the fame and disposition system fron oblivion

i never got why they never advanced that system and instead just got rid of it, same with karma

karma is such a quintessentially fallout idea

[pliant grotto]

Like, the way that it currently works you can run into a raider hideout and yell at their boss to surrender in the middle of a massive firefight, and they'll drop to their knees with their hands up while literally the entire rest of their gang keeps shooting you -- and politely remain there while you slowly work your way through their gang. Wonky lol

I think gating it to a perk is good for like, manually triggering it, but it could do with better implementation. Have it be a flee combat prompt unless the enemy is the last in the group, then as you upgrade it it gains sort of an AOE effect or somesuch around the person targeted, allowing you to potentially get a group to surrender/flee

[sour jay]

To be fair, NPCs do have scripts and voice lines for self preservation. Most often I see it from scavengers who run away screaming - but they keep coming back, and I can't stop my companion from killing them even if I put my gun away. Raiders and even super mutants do this too, but I can count the times I've seen it with the fingers on one hand. Gunners I've never seen retreat, or the Brotherhood of Steel. It really annoys me how they never use their air superiority to get the hell out of dodge and instead keep hovering until they get shot down.

If I remember right, a raider once said to me "Fine, keep your s***!" and tried to run away. I think I've seen two super mutants run away shouting "Retreat!" I can't remember exactly, but I think they were the last survivors of their groups with less than 10% health when they did that.

This game could use a mod that changes the conditions for these interactions. Intelligent enemies should be a lot faster to recognize they're outclassed.

[dusky verge]

like hey wouldnt it be fun if instead of doing a bunch of radiant quests for preston garvey to become the general you just solved his personal guilt and empowered him using a disposition system and proved yourself a moral presence in the wasteland for him to consider you for the position

[shell thistle]

Shouldn't take a Perk just to have reasonable natural behaviour in the game.

[dusky verge]

i agree, its a bad design choice

[pliant grotto]

I always thought the General position should have come alongside you taking back the Castle, yeah. Just moving it from an immediate "you're our supreme leader because I'm the only person left in the organization" to a "you've proved yourself an ally and a leader alongside me, I think you deserve to be in fully charge" would have made it feel a lot more earned.

[dusky verge]

it reeks of "please you are literally the only person who can do anything please help us please we need our castle back get our castle thanks please"

[pliant grotto]

To be fair like I said, the implementation isn't natural behavior lol. It's a "diceroll to make one enemy freeze in place forever" button essentially. Could use a lot of refinement to be more natural and useful; ironically one could look back a long ways to TTRPG abilities and spells for inspiration in that regard.

[shell thistle]

I've seen Gunners retreat tactically on rare occasions. BoS never. But it's all too rare.
I think it would actually increase tension of groups of attackers would back off and shadow you when you kill a bunch of them in the first wave attack. That would get very creepy to be stealthily hunted, instead of frontal suicide mob attacks.

[dusky verge]

like the minutemen always felt like its major players were just like the guys in sanctuary why didnt minutemen soldiers show up to act as settlers who naturally boosted defense at aided settlements

[pliant grotto]

I think the minutemen were conceptually meant to literally be your settlers; the idea being that it's a faction of volunteer homesteaders who hear a call to arms on the radio and grab the laser musket they keep under their bed, colonial militia style

I don't mind that idea (I actually rather like it) but it definitely needed more time in the oven and to be handled more in-depth from pretty much every standpoint (mechanical, visual, story, etc...)

[shell thistle]

At the end of the day retreat is a combat package decision so that mod could be done (and the game could have shipped that way for a more creepy vibe).
That deals with aggression but it would be nice to have other interactions with intelligent actors.

[shell thistle]

Totally agree, that would make much more sense. Regaining the Castle is hard, very practical, hugely symbolic.

[pliant grotto]

The problem I think is that Bethesda's combat AI doesn't really have much of a "tactical retreat" state, just "combat", "noncombat", and "fleeing danger"

[shell thistle]

Yeah

[sour jay]

Only thing remotely like that happened to me when I was on my way to Far Harbor. There was a group of three scavengers in the middle of the road. I went to talk to them, and it turned out they were hunting me because I'd betrayed them during the USS Constitution quest. I think it was a random encounter that was unlocked by my choice there, and it just happened to spawn in the far northeast, but I'm not certain.

It would have been way more interesting if they'd actually tried to ambush me from cover, but I'll give points for my choice actually having a consequence.

[shell thistle]

I found out something interesting yesterday. If I read the CK correctly, frag grenade fragments detonate in a 120 degree spherical arc, 60 degrees either side of vertical (up). In which case it should be possible to survive a near miss from a frag grenade just by laying down or even crouching down, depending on distance from the explosion point. Shame there is no "hit the deck" button.

Any volunteers to test the theory? 😁

You need the distance to be 1.73 (tan 60°) x your head height (or height of the highest part of you).

There's probably blast damage as well as frag damage but it would be interesting to see if you take less damage in the same spot just by crouching.

[sour jay]

I doubt it. If you could reduce your effective height by crouching, it should also help you fit into narrow spaces, and that does not work.

[keen verge]

thank you imma try that is there a way to acces the creation club from steam ?

[simple otter]

Need some help fixing my game. Is it true deleting my Saved data from my Xbox and restarting would make my game usable again?

[sage knoll]

y’all
what are some mods I could download just to make the game as hard as possible

[gleaming sequoia]

Advanced Needs 76 and MAIM

[sage knoll]

What does maim add?

[gleaming sequoia]

its what I use for my personal run so idk

[gleaming sequoia]

severe hits with bleeding damage

[sage knoll]

nice

[gleaming sequoia]

if you really want to have the Escape from Tarkov level of gameplay, then MAIM is it. This applies for enemy NPCs as well.

[sage knoll]

Fun

[gleaming sequoia]

Or you can try Better Locaional Damage for a realistic damage for both the player and NPCs

[quiet pebble]

Hey do any of you know if the weapons from fallout 76 are compatible with fallout 4. Like engine wise? For example the Gauss Minigun and Auto Grenade Launcher explosions and such.

[sage knoll]

There was also a mod I’ve seen called “challenge edition” which made the game extremely hard
like Mirelurk spawns at the bloodbugs outside of concord

[gleaming sequoia]

isn't fallout 76 just fallout 4 but multiplayer

if it is then probably?

[quiet pebble]

Wait. So it is the same engine by any chance?

[gleaming sequoia]

i mean gameplay wise, looks like a copy and paste from Fallout 4

[gleaming sequoia]

I suggest Private Contract for elite special force NPCs, Mutant Menagaries for more hostile creatures, Expanded Commonwealth Enemy Encounters for DLC creatures or NPCs to spawn in the Vanilla world, Raider Gang Extended for additional low level raiders, and More Faction Enemy Gunner for Gunners to have actual classes, like Gunner Sniper, Gunner Assassin, etc

[sage knoll]

I already have Mutant Menagaries :>

[gleaming sequoia]

I have an arachnophobia crisis so I can't handle that

[sage knoll]

so do I lmao

I also have “Faction Reinforcements” which is an interesting one

oh and Zetan Invaders

[gleaming sequoia]

If you want a more spawn related, I would reccomend NPC Travel for more NPC to spawn in various areas

[sage knoll]

I’ve seen that mod around

[gleaming sequoia]

And Few More NPCs for extra NPCs around the map

More Enemies to increase NPC spawn by 100s

[sage knoll]

Nice

Currently trying to find it 💀

[gleaming sequoia]

@sage knoll try this, NPC travel, and Few More NPCs

makes the world a bit more active

[sage knoll]

I can’t find the npc travel one :’)

[gleaming sequoia]

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/16987

[sage knoll]

I only found it in Dutch, which is something I can’t speak or read

and I’m on xbox, which I should’ve specified before 😭

[gleaming sequoia]

ah

then your kinda out of luck then

[sage knoll]

I did see NPC Travel one here before tho

[gleaming sequoia]

Most of my mods is PC

[sage knoll]

Damn

I might be able to find some of them

[gleaming sequoia]

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/51448 i reccomend having this along with it @sage knoll

[sage knoll]

Oh that’s cool

[hoary mango]

Am I the only one who got genuinely happy and "emotional" when Piper told you that she's happy she's spending time with you and that she loves you? Or am I just pathetic.

[sage knoll]

found one called FCOM
That one any good?

[lilac saffron]

🤨

[gleaming sequoia]

I snap her neck so I can open the door to diamond city

[lilac saffron]

Bro what

[hoary mango]

nooo 😭

[gleaming sequoia]

im not joking https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/19191?tab=description

[lilac saffron]

Lol

I’m for real stuck in the robot DLC cause a dumbass go to my workbench 😭 I can’t even build a head

[sage knoll]

just tag the stuff you need and go to venders

[lilac saffron]

No It’s a more complicated glitch some reason only the last three things appear where I can craft stuff and it’s only a body into arms it’s the most goofy glitch ever

[sage knoll]

Damn

[gleaming sequoia]

I heard the October update for Fallout 4 is a let down

[sage knoll]

Why’s that

[lilac saffron]

How the flipping flip is it bad hasn’t even came out yet and also what is the October update

[gleaming sequoia]

Something to do with fallout 76

[lilac saffron]

Oh 76

Still waiting for the Consol update also I may be addicted to this game

[sage knoll]

I think the npc travel thing got removed from Xbox lmao

[lilac saffron]

Lol

[sage knoll]

Gonna try out the MAIM one tho

[lilac saffron]

Huh

U mean miami or am I just dumb

[sage knoll]

no

as that other person said it’s like a style of Tarkov

[lilac saffron]

O

[gleaming sequoia]

@sage knoll i also reccomend New Rival Raider Style for 50+ new raider gang factions that spawns anywhere

[sage knoll]

nice

lock picking is nearly impossible my lord

that is because of really bad controller drift

[blissful cypress]

Lockpicking is almost too easy on controller. If you are having trouble with it can almost guarantee it's how you are doing it.

[lilac saffron]

Take out the batteries and use WD-40 look it up first cause that’s how I fixed my drift on a controller but you should look it up first

[glossy saffron]

Trying to make a feral mod for myself in creation club, anyone got advice how to do it?

I have pre weighted models

[warped tiger]

Fallout 4 question. Can the "defiant" legendary modifier appear on sniper rifles? I hope it is so I can have endless double damage all the time with a 1 bullet loading sniper.

[pure sigil]

There is a channel dedicated to modding fo4, might be better to ask in there.

[ebon tulip]

Hi, I just launched fallout 4 and I'm having a little trouble with the level up system with the points to be awarded and everything, could someone help me please?

[slate rock]

What’s going on @ebon tulip ?

[ebon tulip]

I didn't quite understand the point system you acquire at each level; are they limited to a maximum level, what are they for (can they be used for skills as for SPECIAL attributes...), so I was hoping to find someone to explain all this to me

[sour jay]

They are not limited. There is no maximum level. That said, leveling up at high levels requires massive amounts of experience, so it is useful to plan ahead and only go for the SPECIAL attributes and perks you want, unless you plan on sinking months into this game.

The points can be used either for SPECIAL attributes or perks. You get one each level.

[toxic laurel]

I'm doing "the Big Dig" mission, and after digging through some walls and going through some tunnels, I need to access a terminal to unlock a door. But the terminal is placed kinda funny, and there is a barrel to the side of it. So when I engage the terminal, I can't really sit down at it, and so I can't access it. Is there any way around this? I tried with the no clip mode as well, but the sitting-down-animation just won't complete.

I guess I could use no clipping to just walk through the door. But I have three npcs with me. And also, I'd like to just open the door instead of just no clipping straight to the end of the mission.

No clipping did the trick.

[proven elm]

Here are the Wiki pages on SPECIALs and perks:

https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout_4_SPECIAL

https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout_4_perks

[ebon tulip]

Thx guys! Very simple and clear!

[lilac saffron]

Y’all ever think The Institute could’ve had ties to The Enclave and Vault-Tec? Been doing some lore reading and to me, it makes a lot of sense that they would in some capacity. How else would they have the FEV and somehow conveniently have a vault full of frozen people they can freely experiment on?

[leaden cloud]

Just finished FO4. (Though still playing DLCs)

That was a pretty incredible game, havent been addicted to a game like that in a while. Took me just over 50hrs to finish the main story, will likely take me 70-80hrs to finish my whole playthrough.

[proven elm]

Glad you liked it! Fallout 4 is my favorite Fallout game. ❤️

[leaden cloud]

FO4 is not even far off being my favourite game tbh lol. Probably top 3

[copper echo]

I don’t think so. The Institute seemed to try to establish ties with the Commonwealth and then severed them when that went pair-shaped. Although I think the Enclave would’ve made more sense to explain FEV on the east coast than everyone and their mother conducting FEV experiments.

[north needle]

also the institute are the remanents of the university after the bombs, while the vault 111 experiment was established before it and was abandonded simply because people inside revolted, so just a coincidence. the institute later found there was pre war people frozen and used them

[warped tiger]

Fallout 4 question. Can the "defiant" legendary modifier appear on sniper rifles? I hope it is so I can have endless double damage all the time with a 1 bullet loading sniper.

[ivory gull]

In fallout 4 the first state that the news guy said got nuked was Pennsylvania, I think I would like to see that in the future as a new game

[blissful cypress]

There's mods that let you add legendary prefixes to weapons so why not try that

[kindred coyote]

there are hints which may imply they got it from vault 87, hence why their super mutants are similar, but they are loose hints

[lilac saffron]

i need some help on fallout4. game has audio loading up but none in game or menu

[shell thistle]

Good point.
Although you can get past some obstructions by crouching. Just not all the ones it looks like you ought to get under.

[shell thistle]

In game menu

[shell thistle]

Basically no. They need to be re-implemented, for legal reasons, even though it is 90-95% the same engine.

[shell thistle]

Yes good idea although that won't discover whether or not it can spawn naturally with that legendary.

[blissful cypress]

Couldn't you just keep spawning the item to see

[shell thistle]

Depending on the mod yes. If its a mod that spawns natural legendaries at a high rate. Not if its one of the mods that let you attach whatever you want.

[quiet pebble]

But you mean by modders or Bethesda themselves? Cause I just found out some modders did actually import them illegally (since it’s stolen assets) to FO4

[vague basin]

Bethesda does not allow asset porting from one game to another.

[quiet pebble]

So there is no chance they- the studio itself import some assets like Power Armor or Weapons to F04 Creation Club?

[vague basin]

They could, it's been known to happen with assets from older games. But that's the studio, and only they know what they're allowed to port over. It's all tied in to licensing and such.

[warped tiger]

You can just do that with console commands dude.

[quiet pebble]

Crossing fingers to see what the Next-Gen Update for FO4 brings!

[warped tiger]

So when are we expecting the next gen update? Month specifically.

[blissful cypress]

Only if on pc. Mods would allow the option for pc or console players

[warped tiger]

I'm a PC player.

[blissful cypress]

K I don't read minds so gave an option to cover each basis since you've asked multiple times over last day or so & haven't gotten an answer

[drowsy sun]

Probably Martober

[warped tiger]

Its cool. Thank you for answering.

[mint pike]

Guys I just bought all fallout 4 dlcs and I'm gonna a have a blast

[lilac saffron]

Nuka world is the best imo

The gauntlet is hella fun

[mint pike]

I upgraded my standard fallout 4 to the game of the year edition with all of the dlc from discount

[lilac saffron]

Very nice

[mint pike]

I still got 5 bucks left in my Microsoft account and I'm saving that for something else later on

and now I can use mods without having to worry about not having the right dlcs for it

[warped tiger]

Could spend it on Bethesda.net currency. Who knows.

Speaking of which is there anything new Free on F04's Creation Club since last I checked on July 4th? I wanna know so I can decide weather to hook my PC to claim whatever's available.

[mint pike]

I haven't checked yet

[mint pike]

Guys, with the power with mods I turned codsworth into a female human

[waxen echo]

science has gone too far!

[lilac saffron]

Bro 💀

[pure sigil]

I hope the voice changed too.

[real sky]

Skills

[stable seal]

I have a question for you people

After your first playthrough, what is the first legendary weapon you go to find

mine is The Gainer

[north needle]

Deliverer

[mint pike]

Guys, I want to know what happened to the charred vault suit mod that was for all consoles

I cant even find it anymore

[stable seal]

They removed it maybe?

They are updating it and it's currently unavailable?

[mint pike]

Same thing goes for other female mods

[stable seal]

Are they from the same creator

[mint pike]

No, I mean like other female outfits

[stable seal]

Hmm then idk

[mint pike]

I had this mod which was vtaw wardrobe 6 mod and it got removed for some reason

There's barely any good female outfit mods for the xbox one

[merry mason]

Am I the only one that thinks survival mode sucks? Like don't get me wrong I Like having to keep track of resources and it feeling more realistic and difficult the only thing i don't like is no fast travelling it sucks ass running across that map for 20 minutes finding no beds dying and having to do it again. Like atleast skyrim you can still use carriages but in Fallout nope gotta run everywhere i even got the faster move speed armor and am working towards the jetpack but a jetpack can only do so much like come on man Survival mode isnt really all that hard what is hard is bearing walking across the map for 20 minutes that isnt gameplay that isnt fun and theres no point to it at all after like 2 weeks of gameplay ive barely gotten to taking the castle after 20 hours of gameplay I WOULD LOVE Survival mode but i cant bear walking for 90% of the time

dont know how they didnt just not make this or add another travel feature honestly baffles me

[stiff dome]

I guess that's where you really have to love building settlements all over the place and these mechanics starts to shine.

[merry mason]

Yeah but it gets repetitive

buy resources make cap farm buy more resources make more cap farm its just repeptitive garbage

[stiff dome]

I feel you. I think you can activate fast travel and only that, in survival mode, with this mod. Plenty of options, just don't be tempted ! https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/14650

[north needle]

yeah survival with all its downsides and difficul raised, even sleeping to save, would be a lot of my taste, but fast travel its just something i love too much

[merry mason]

theres no other travel system

and sure it can be fun going into places along the way

till you have to travel that same path 36 times

[north needle]

i personaly think going to places 1 time while exploring its enough. after all you cant fast travel to places you never went before

[mint pike]

Guys, I'm refurbishing my house in fallout 4 by cleaning it up and setting things like it was in the pre war

[stable seal]

I've only ever played fallout 4, is it worth it playing the older ones

[proven elm]

I also like Fallout 3 very much (though not as much as Fallout 4).

[stable seal]

Ah

[grizzled saddle]

Does fallout 4 on PC usually have really long blank load screens? I'm on a beasat of a machine, hehe maybe this is normal for the game

[mint pike]

Bethesda needs to stop removing female outfit mods that the modders have made from their hard work.

[hexed coyote]

Does anyone know how to uninstall fallout 4 creation club mods on xcloud?

[stiff dome]

the loading time is tied up with the framerate, I installed the mods High FPS Physics fix, it needs the mod Fallout 4 Script Extender to work and after install it needs some editing in AppData\Roaming\Vortex\fallout4\mods\High FPS Physics Fix-44798-0-8-6-1656849140\F4SE\Plugins (if you use Vortex) in the file HighFPSPhysicsFix.ini, especially the framerate unlock, lock pick fix, just read the descriptions in the file.

it's now loading super fast on nvme

[rugged wigeon]

can we think Fallout 4 is Turing complete (with logic gates)?

or building limit will prevent logic circuit in Fallout 4 calculate anything?

[pure sigil]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-gif-23918002

[rugged wigeon]

Fallout 4 have a circuit DLC

[keen verge]

I got spoilerd when it was new bought it 1 year ago couldn’t finish it though because I don’t want to kill so many people and I don’t really know if there even are good guyes worth being on their side

[leaden cloud]

passive playthroughs are possible afaik

[waxen echo]

generally,yes. also the minutemen are 98% altruistic.

pure pacivitiy for the player character isn't possible for a complete ending, but there is one where near total evacutation of a location happens, saving the most possible lives.

that's probably the most I could say without any kind of spoilers or moral discussion 😉

[north needle]

I think it's worth pointing too that factions in fo4 are particulary greyish in intentions, tied mostly to pure subjetivity for good or Bad, at least in how i felt it. Hope this doesnt count as spoiler

[merry mason]

question

so is the max for any stat just 10? or just it just say that

because i have 9 charisma + bobblehead + armor for another 1 so effectively 11 + 5 from grape mentats so does it effectively go over and be 16 without saying it

[merry mason]

whats funny is even with 16 charisma plus the 20% from a perk and 10% from grape mentats they still underprice you and overprice themselves

[drowsy sun]

That's because you're swapping 25 wooden boards and 9 snooker cues for ammo and stimpaks lol

[buoyant ocean]

"A magical Kingdom" quest for nukaworld dlc is bugged for me, because i tried to visit the funhouse after meeting Oswald in the theatre

Does anyone know how to fix it

[quaint condor]

for some reason i think im always in combat, like when i sneak it says danger consatly

[mint pike]

Ugghh I can't find the kites handmaden female outfit mod on the mod menu on fallout 4 on my Xbox one

[severe berry]

This is normal as the other person responding said. However, I found a different mod I used back when I was playing. It was called: FO4LoadAccelerator v1.8-10283-1-8-1567830875

Note: About a month after installing that I realized it broke achievements and it made me sad. Apparently there is another mod you can get to enable achievements again, so if you go that route I recommend you do both if you still want to get the achievements.

Here's a link in case it helps: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/10283/?tab=posts

[grizzled saddle]

thank you!

[mint pike]

We need more new female outfits mods and not call of duty armor, because there are lack of good high quality female outfits in the mod menu.

[wide flower]

I'm so annoyed at the state of the xbox app version of FO4

I can either play at 55fps locked, or unlocked with an ini edit, that breaks the game..

Textures not loading, geometry not loading properley

It needs fixing so badly.. I hope the upgrade comes soon

[drowsy sun]

I've got a bad feeling that the next gen patch will be a few unreleased creation club items and maybe some fixed typos.

[wide flower]

I get the whole team is working on starfield QA, which is fine

but I was hoping for the FO4 upgrade earlier this year

[shrewd orbit]

Does anyone know of any good Minutemen mods?

[proven elm]

Hi, Captain Elio! Feel free to ask mod-related questions in our #fallout-4-mods or #1067505929534320700 channels. 🙂

[shrewd orbit]

Thank You!

[marble veldt]

I personally like the concept of improvised weapons in Fallout

It kinda makes sense, I just wish it was wierder

Here’s a idea, a fully automatic pipe minigun shotgun hybrid thing

Here’s my idea to fix it

[twin epoch]

So a shotgun, that has the RPS of a minigun, and it looks like a pipe weapon?

[marble veldt]

Yes

Wait, what’s Rps

[twin epoch]

Rounds per second

[marble veldt]

Basically yes, but the barrels spin like on a minigun

[twin epoch]

That's so game braking

But would make it quite fun

[marble veldt]

It’s a late game thing

[twin epoch]

"Late game" items are (mostly) weaker then the basic 10mm

[marble veldt]

Yeah

Or a random legendary

Speaking of which, one of my ideas to fix is legendary weapon mods

[twin epoch]

There are like 20+ mods that does exactly that.

[marble veldt]

Oh cool, how do they do it?

I don’t like the idea of making your own legendary effects

[twin epoch]

Oh, I don't know. I just download and play mods

[twin epoch]

It's honestly game braking

[marble veldt]

Personally, I would have it so that the legendary effect exists because of the legendary mod, so you can actually have multiple legendary effects on a single weapon

Also the m16 & 1911 belongs in fallout, lemme have ma stoppin powa

[twin epoch]

Don't those have damage modifiers?

[marble veldt]

The legendary effects? Yes

[twin epoch]

The weapons, not legendary effects

[marble veldt]

What do you mean?

[twin epoch]

Most mod weapons (On xbox at least) have damage modifiers.

[marble veldt]

Oh yeah,

Well you gotta pick & choose I guess or there could be a way to harvest legendary effects like disenchanting in Skyrim

Like a mod can have it’s own legendary slot

[twin epoch]

One of the mods (I can't remember) requires you to collect some resource to apply the effect

I can ask my friend what mod it is

[marble veldt]

So on top of the legendary mods, you also have this new type of npc called “the gun nut”

[twin epoch]

Smh a Catholic boi cursing?

Disgraceful /j

[marble veldt]

It was a figure of speech

So a gun nut is a gunsmith for a raider group that’s big enough. He/She will have his own quest-lines to obtain weird but cool pipe gun mods & will be largely indifferent to you killing his/her raider groups

As long as you don’t pick a fight with them

They also sell weapon mods

If you do pick a fight with them though, it becomes a boss fight

[twin epoch]

Huh...

Interesting

That sounds like a good idea

[marble veldt]

There’s also this idea called “reverse engineering” & it’s also like the disenchantment system in Skyrim & so if there’s a mod that requires the gun nut perk, you can disassemble that mod in particular to how to make it

[twin epoch]

But instead of a pipe weapon I would have it be some sort of AK or AR style

[marble veldt]

I was thinking something similar

Pipe weapons could be “compatible” with “real” weapons

[twin epoch]

Finally gives my gamma gun that does 50% more damage to ghouls a purpose

[marble veldt]

Lol

[lilac saffron]

Best automatic rifle in game

[wide flower]

they might have conciousness

We don't know how to test for it, only intellegence

[hoary mango]

Sure, but that wasn't the point I was making :/

[pure sigil]

If I do something a companion dislikes I'm like "get over it, I'll do something you like next time"

[modern karma]

Imo killing gen 3s is indistinguishable from killing humans

Piper is right

[hoary mango]

The thing with synths was just an example. The main point of my post was feeling bad about doing a decision that the companion dislikes, even though that decision is what I truly want to do. You guys missed that completely.

[modern karma]

I mean I think acting in opposition with a companion you like/morally agree with brings up a moral discussion

We are now having that moral discussion

[hoary mango]

Nvm. Forget I brought anything up.

[twin epoch]

The BOS would love you for what your said.

[runic sandal]

Cait 🖤🧡🖤

[hoary mango]

But Piper hates BoS and killing synths 😭

[twin epoch]

That's why you always download "actors are headshotable" and show piper the business end of a 10mm

[modern karma]

But bos are pretentious fascists

[mint pike]

Guys, I'm rebuilding sanctuary with everything that came with the dlcs and with mods to make sanctuary have power and more uses for the houses as well

[waxen echo]

I saw your original post and I agree it feels awful when you're doing something counter to a companion you care about. I'm an altruist, thoroughly, but my favourite companion is MacCready. Telling that man that no, I will not be charing the poor settlers for our services, is always a struggle. He is given more caps than he could ever want, by me, but he'll still do the "MacCready disliked that" when I don't argue for more pay, or any at all, for quests.

I lke to RP that later, we talk it out and smooth things over and it helps the relationship even if, numbers wise, I'll have to do that in another type of gameplay

[hoary mango]

Yes! This is exactly what I meant! And instead of playing how I want, I end up doing what my companion likes because I don't want to hurt their feelings 😭

But I'll do my own thing during the second playthrough

[waxen echo]

sometimes it helps to give yourself a reason to pick someone else up for a particular quest. if you know you're going to do something she will hate, tell Piper to have a day off and bring someone that'll enjoy what you're doing. RP-wise, you can rationalise that just because Sole is a driven "world fixer" doesn't mean these characters are. Heck, most of them are not, because theyv'e grown up in this world and are used to the status quo that Sole is trying to change.

maybe Piper, since she was your example, needed to visit with her sister exactly as you're taking down the institute with a BOS member, etc

[hoary mango]

Yeah, makes sense. Unfortunately, Piper is the only companion I currently like. But as I said, I used this playthrough to get familiar with the game and the world. I'll use a second playthrough to do more of my thing without taking Piper.

[waxen echo]

a solid plan. it's definitely a game worth going through a few times to see what you enjoy more and how you'd want to create your own "canon" playthrough.

[stiff dome]

I take every companions I encounter with me and I send them all to Sanctuary lol

[scarlet sky]

i pretty much say get over it when they don't like something lol, unless youre completely evil or join the hated. ur good, u'll never lose them. i never have. they dislike stuff i do sure but i always manage havn't "lost" a companion to dislikes. can't make everyone happy all the time. or youre not doing it right.

[mint pike]

Guys when I try to start up fallout 4 and load my game in, it keeps automatically crashing my game

And I'm on the Xbox One

[scarlet sky]

ya know i think i have a vague memory of learning that saves (possibly with mods) can "Degenerate" when just sitting there or something

ik i've come back to saves that just wouldn't work

mod updates i think

[mint pike]

Xbox one consoles ain't suppose to crash your game like that

[visual pollen]

Lol

[waxen echo]

I saw someone that made MacCready swear and it hurt my heart. I'm such a soft touch

[pliant grotto]

do you have mods installed

or are trying to load a save that had mods installed after disabling some

also are you playing off of a disc or digital download

[full mango]

If you're having issues with crashing, please post in the appropriate section, either in #1087805680829857822 or through a support ticket: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/home/product/695/fallout4cat/8

Subject: Issue with Preston Garvey in Fallout 4 (PlayStation 4)

Dear Bethesda Discord Support Team,

I hope you are doing well. I would like to share an issue I have recently encountered while playing "Fallout 4" on my PlayStation 4.

My problem is related to the character of Preston Garvey, one of the companions available in the game. After completing the main story and all the DLCs of "Fallout 4," I noticed that Preston Garvey and his team are no longer in Sanctuary Hills, their original location. I tried searching for them in other areas, including the Castle where I first encountered him, but when I interacted with him and his team, they acted as if they just met me and did not recognize previous events in the game.

Since I have already finished the game and do not have any previous save files, I am looking for a solution that does not require loading an earlier save. Are there any alternative methods or solutions to have Preston Garvey and his team return to their original locations and normal behaviors?

I appreciate your assistance in finding a solution to this issue, as I wish to continue my "Fallout 4" gaming experience in a more consistent and realistic manner. If you have any recommendations, advice, or procedures to address this bug without having to load an earlier save, I would be greatly thankful.

I look forward to your prompt response and thank you for your attention and support regarding this matter.

[waxen echo]

so I found a video about if you leave a main story character, seems to be any of them, in their dialogue this can happen. I know you said you finished the story, but since there's multiple people to talk to, and interact with, can you remember ever cancelling out of someone's dialogue and not finishing their quest line? also, are you able to interact with Preston at all as a companion? that's apparently a separate bug.

I don't know if this will fix your issues, but he mentions two things to try that don't involve mods or reloading a save. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swzh4HnT3TY&ab_channel=SkooledZone

[scarlet sky]

Too bad that card about posting was played a little too early 🤣

[waxen echo]

yeah, I figured they know to ask beth for help with a ticket, but it never hurts to try and troubleshoot for someone if it's an easy fix

the worst bugs I've ever encountered I was able to fix with suggestions from players that I hadn't thought of

[rich bison]

Following the conversation... I wanted to mention that I can talk to Preston Garvey and even recruit him as a companion, but when I speak to him and ask what he thinks, he remains silent. Also, when I inquire about our relationship, he says he's not sure but that I have leadership potential or something like that, as if he still hasn't named me General. Furthermore, when I recruit him, his team doesn't move from the Museum of Freedom; only he does.

It seems there might be an issue with Preston Garvey's dialogue and interactions in my game. Despite recruiting him, he acts as if the main questline is not fully completed. Additionally, his team not moving from the Museum of Freedom is quite odd.

I hope this information helps in addressing the situation and finding a solution. Please let me know if there's any additional information you need from me to investigate this matter further.

Thank you for your attention and assistance.

[scarlet sky]

oh man i got that before where they leave sanctuary and go back to the museum and continue their last interaction there forever, i think it was because you go back in there again after their story is finished. (i remember testing that once) so after the main story in the museum just avoid going back in there.

my guess was that when the cell "resets" and you go back in fresh it triggers the end of the interaction again and bugs them all.

ever since i just avoided going back in there i've never had that happen again

[glad oar]

Hi can someone helpe me?
I cant play fallout 4, when i start the launcher the message appears "cant identify your video hardware"
and it runs in low quality

[torpid galleon]

What's your card

[scarlet sky]

the only card you need is the ace of spades

[glad oar]

rtx 3050

[torpid galleon]

The launcher only has so many records it can use to find the recommended settings for your card. As I'm not familiar with how low power the 3050 is, I couldn't recommend anything, but someone else might be able to

[glad oar]

i have already finished this game twice in this same pc

[cloud hazel]

have you tried updating the drivers? That is usually my first step of troubleshooting

[lilac saffron]

banana

[lilac saffron]

Ok was I stupid to not do the other faction quests first cuz I did the bos ending

[lament root]

Dunno if my character is bugged but for some reason when I get close to some npcs after I finish talking to them I hear a hiss sound or something and they attack me...
Anyone know why?

[pure sigil]

Is this on a laptop?
There might have been a windows update that has resulted in the launcher trying to use the default windows video card and not your installed dedicated graphics card.

Try these steps..

[indigo imp]

I tried doing Nuka-World a couple of days ago and had to reload from my exitsave from the previous day because I couldn’t defeat the Overboss at the end of the Gauntlet and you can’t leave without completing it, causing me to lose all progress from that day. I wonder why they don’t have a warning that the only way to leave the Nuka-World Gauntlet is to win the “impossible” battle at the end!

[shell thistle]

Motorhead are never wrong.

[glad oar]

Thanks bro, i'll try

[torpid galleon]

Regenerating health too fast, I wonder? I recall a certain known issue for Colter was fixed due to a floating point calculation issue.

[strange slate]

Been having PC dialogue problems, a character’s dialogue will speak over their own like they are playing at the same time. It’s persistent throughout my entire campaign.

[long plank]

Running any mods?

[glad oar]

Didnt work

[strange slate]

No mods

[drowsy sun]

Iv

I've had the same issue since launch, trying using a framerate limiter and set it to 60.

[indigo imp]

He wasn't taking damage when I used different weapons (such as the Nocturnal Flamer) against him. And this was after I used the squirt gun (forgot what it's called exactly) to disable his electrical field.

[torpid galleon]

In my experience, there's one known bug with that fight, and it only shows up if you take the fusion core without UF4OP installed. Due to a calculation error with the quest script, the timer for when his electrical field defensives regenerate is much faster than it should be.

[indigo imp]

What is UF4OP? Also, I didn't know there was a fusion core you could take when I attempted the fight. And I didn't have any mods installed (I have seen stories online about people's saves being messed up by mods).

[torpid galleon]

Are you on PC or console? UF4OP is my mispelling of UFO4P or the unofficial patch.

[indigo imp]

I am on PC. I will try that mod, but I don't know if it will mess up my save or not.

[torpid galleon]

So you have no mods at all

Saves getting messed up depends on the mod and what it does, really. Especially if they are removed at some point during gameplay as the engine does not handle that very well.

From my experience, it shouldn't mess up your save at all, but not all the fixes from the project will apply as they aren't retroactive or able to be applied.

If you decide to dip into the pool of mods, there's a well known modlist that's good for a baseline for setting up your game on. If this is just a first time playthrough, the unofficial patch should be enough for what you are doing.

[lilac saffron]

Is the Makano quest the one that starts far harbor?

[waxen echo]

to find Kasumi? Yes

[toxic laurel]

How do I rotate objects in building mote? For all three axis. I know left and right mouse button rotate left and right. But how to I rotate on the third axis? Can't figure it out.

Did a google search and it told me to press shift to switch the axis. But nothing happens.

[grave pecan]

Is there a spreadsheet or link or something that someone can send me that shows the weight and HP of everything like my companions? Because I know everything is reduced

[pure sigil]

In vanilla you can only rotate build items while in workshop mode on the Z axis. With Place Everywhere mod on PC you can switch through all 3 axis using Ctrl, still using the mouse to rotate.

I think your Google search referred to rotating objects that you are holding with grab, not items in the workshop in build mode.

[shell thistle]

UFO4P on its own is extremely safe.

[shell thistle]

And some objects (not all) in the load screens.

[gloomy chasm]

Hello. I have an issue. I just finished the Fort Hagen mission, I left the fort correctly through the elevator. The Prydwen appeared in the sky, but no speech could be heard, and the Shadow of Steel mission did not start. Anyone know how I could fix this?
Thank you!

[warped tiger]

Dose anyone know if you can change the vault resource parameters in base game post quest?

[warped tiger]

I wanna swap back and make my slot machines function like slot machines.

Not just spitting out cash.

[median rune]

any rumours on when fo4’s next gen console upgrade is coming?

[severe berry]

The only rumor I've heard is sometime in 2023. Then, nothing but crickets... 😢

[waxen echo]

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-cave-cricket-enemy-death-insect-gif-25180882

at least it's a big one

[severe berry]

That's funny. Especially after I just had a spider drop down between me and my monitor! I picked up a magnifying glass and hit him like a tennis ball. Now I have no idea where he is... 😬

[sleek cave]

I just shot the alien in the cave fallout 4 I feel bad about it because starfield will be here soon 😉🥹😅

[waxen echo]

make sure you don't tell them!

[sleek cave]

Oh I’m doing freedom trail chat to the bot near swan and I recognise the voice his in Skyrim too a high elf dawnguard dlc I think oh wow

Hahaha why only now I notice that lol

It is him from dawnguard the snow elf wooooow

[copper patio]

Is there a mod that changes the hacking minigame? I don't wanna place wordle

[waxen echo]

if you're playing it on pc, since you have both selected I'm not sure, you can just click the terminal and type "unlock"

[vapid furnace]

Got a question does anyone know how to fix the mod place anywhere it got a update to version 5 and now it won't work. I'm on series x btw

[snow hornet]

Oh black betty

Yeah black betty

The safest sound

[sturdy viper]

Place anywhere hasn't been updated since 2017

[vapid furnace]

I got a update just before and now it won't work

[sturdy viper]

Then that don't sound like it's a mod problem that sounds like that's an update problem

[indigo imp]

OK then!

[gloomy chasm]

Anyone?

[lilac saffron]

I have a question about Supply lines, just wondering if anyone could help?

I'm looking to set up Supply lines between Sanctuary and another settlement. All my junk is in Sanctuary workshop. So I'm wondering if would I have to send a settler from Sanctuary to the other settlement, or could I send a settler from the other settlement to Sanctuary and still have access to the junk from Sanctuary workbench?

[pure sigil]

Either. It just requires the settlements to be connected.

Your items will remain at Sanctuary but be available as components for crafting in any connected settlement.

[earnest dune]

Try reloading your save?

When i played it i didnt had issues

Should reroll to before u left via elevator

[gloomy chasm]

I tried, no change.

[lilac saffron]

I would send the settler to sanctuary, then send them back to the other camp as a supply line, best thing to do is try and create a circular chain between the various settlements.

[slate rock]

^

i just have my settlers from multiple settlements start supply lines and it’s all connected

more organized than a web but it’s like a web

[sage epoch]

good day anyone knows how to solve the black face issue and still accomplish the game achievements without using modes

[sturdy viper]

You mean brown face? Visit any Barber and change your hairstyle.

[meager bridge]

anyone here ever have a UI issue when using the floating damage numbers mod alongside an ENB?

[distant wedge]

Is the new fallout london going to be a mod on the creation club or a dlc all by itself

[unkempt cliff]

Neither.

[distant wedge]

@unkempt cliff so how would I play it. Obviously it's FO4 format correct??

[unkempt cliff]

It’ll be a player-made mod for PC.

[distant wedge]

Ok thx

[tidal salmon]

does anyone know why they changed the decent looking gauss rifles in f3 to 'my opinion' the ugly looking 'awkward to charge' gauss rifles in f4?

[lilac saffron]

trying something new maybe?

[stiff dome]

I just teleported out of the institute, I've built the teleport in with the minuteman and I have a foot in every other factions but did not officially decided to side with them 100%. If I want to go the brotherhood of steel side, I just have to continue doing radiant missions in the police station and it will eventually unlock the next main quest with them? Maybe I already did too much elsewhere and I'm screwed?

oh I think I have to listen to Military Frequency AF95 (from google). I don't have any mission about that tho.

[waxen echo]

look for these names you might have https://www.polygon.com/fallout-4/2015/11/9/9696326/brotherhood-steel-quests

see if you can pick up the thread of where you are

[stiff dome]

Thanks. No quest from this list in my game. The radio frequency don't work, Paladin Danse gives nothing. I'm after Institutionalized quest, maybe I went too far. I guess I'll finish the game with railroads gang. Don't feel like playing any dlc after that bug/problem, I'll just rush it and go finish Skyrim before Starfield.

[waxen echo]

how did you end Institutionalized? did you refuse to work with them? or attack Father?

there is a little wiggle room in there, if you scroll down to the notes section, that you might be able to work with to salvage your run https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Institutionalized

[gloomy mauve]

Does anyone know the fix to the error 0xc000007b on windows 10? I can't launch the game because of it.

[stiff dome]

I said I don't know yet about all of this to everyone in the quest and did not talk to Father for the quest after that, I teleported out, since they gave me the tech.

[waxen echo]

hmm, well I would suggest, if you do not want to side with them, hopping back into the institute and attempting to speak with him. to fully say no, and see if the next quest pops up for you correctly

[stiff dome]

I'll check it out thanks

[waxen echo]

but I'd hard save, if you're able on your platform

you're welcome. I hope it's fixable, it should be, but it's hard to advise without being able to dig through your save fille myself, ya know?

[stiff dome]

ok I will save and try this

[waxen echo]

literal guess... is it this? https://www.diskgenius.com/how-to/fix-error-code-0xc000007b.php#:~:text=Reasons of Windows error code 0xc000007b,-There are many&text=Specifically%2C you are attempting to,bit environment brings about problem.

[stiff dome]

synths are friendly in the world so I don't really have hope lol. Let's try before bed, man I played too much I'm super tired.

[waxen echo]

ah boo

[dapper hare]

Ugghhhh. I played this game for years on XB1 and it was painful anytime I had to go in or near Boston. Save, take a few steps, save again, few steps, crash. Reload and take a few more steps, etc, etc. Now I just started playing on PC and I was hoping it would be more stable. No crashes for quite a few hours on this new save, but as soon as I got into Diamond City it crashed twice-- once when I entered Nick Valentine's office, and again when I entered Piper's house. I got thru all of that, but now it just crashed inside the Back Street Apparel building.

[gloomy mauve]

Thanks yes but I've tried fixing before with what it said so I guess I'm gonna try and formatting my pc

[waxen echo]

sorry, I'm awful with computers, but I thought I'd try ❤️

[lilac saffron]

synth lives matter ✊ 🤖

[heavy thicket]

yo quick question

how do i get fallout to work with my 4k tv

please dm if you know

[stiff dome]

Nothing works. Taking a break for a couple of days. Thank you.

[heavy thicket]

thats all you had to say

haha

[stiff dome]

?

[waxen echo]

sorry, that sucks. maybe down the road you'll wanna do another playthrough and you can follow the brotherhood instead.

[stiff dome]

I never replayed a game in 46 years so it is what it is. Do you recommend any particular DLC to get the fun back in this playthrough?

[waxen echo]

hmm, well Far Harbour is usually the favourite story-wise, but if you enjoy raiders, or can tollerate them, Nuka World has some silly fun stuff in it too. You get to run around a destroyed theme park and explore space zones and jungle zones and stuff. but yes you will be helping raiders some so that's a you choice.

(there is an option for wholesale murder tho too, if that's more your style)

though if you DO play Far Harbour, bring Nick. he's the only compaion with corresponding voice lines

that's why I said there's an option for murder

[lilac saffron]

my bad

[waxen echo]

but I"m trying not to spoil for them

is okay

[lilac saffron]

First time playing fo4? interesting

[waxen echo]

not to judge your playstyle, but games like this one especially, do benefit from multiple playthroughs because there's four separate endings, but I def get where you're coming from and it's valid. it's a lot of time to put into the same thing. even if stuff does turn out different every time

[stiff dome]

I think I'll do that! After going back to save 10 hours ago just to activate brotherhood properly. I was about to rush to the end so I will no redo everything I did, I already saw the content. And my loot is not that much better than this morning. Allright, good night.

[waxen echo]

goodnight. feel free to ping me if you get stuck or have questions. it's been a biiiiit since I played but my google-fu is strong

[stiff dome]

I have 3200 games library, big passion. I like to try new games all the time instead of replaying, but yeah I understand these kind of games.

[waxen echo]

that makes sense. I think a lot of us have a bigger steam collection vs the actually played games 😉

[stiff dome]

oh yeah the backlog is a reality for a lot of us !

[stiff dome]

@waxen echo I went back to Fort Hagen, I just went through the hole dead pace to go out with the elevator instead of another door, Brotherhood ship flied over me, I got he radio message and Shadow of Steel quest popped! Gonna do far harbor tomorrow then finish game this week end! Skyrim next lol

[waxen echo]

YES! You got this!

I'm glad it worked for you. and yeah unfortunately that's a scripted event, it really needs you to play it

otherwise, insanity ensues

[stiff dome]

I really need to sleep well now if I don't want insanity all day, cya

[waxen echo]

yes, yes, get some sleep. I thought youw ere gone already haha

(also I low key feel bad for not asking if the Prydwyn was there yet)

[stiff dome]

I could not sleep until I fixed it, there is almost always a solution

[waxen echo]

haha I don't blame you

[toxic laurel]

Damnit, I automatically killed Erickson, and the last save is too far gone.

Good bye Erickson. See you in hell.

[pure sigil]

Hope you bought his guard dogs first 🤔

[sleek cave]

I downloaded project Luna mod for Xbox I’m going to save it for end of august before Starfield 🫡🚀❤️🙋🏻‍♂️

[dapper hare]

Am I just having back luck, or is this game still crash-y in certain places even with the PC version? I'm 60+ hours into my initial save (on PC) with virtually no problems in the northern half of the map, but Diamond City is driving me nuts. I hate to see what Boston will be like. 😓

[modern karma]

My captured deathclaws aren't fighting and I'm not sure why. My gladiator arena is at stake here

[sturdy viper]

Are you trying to put them against each other? They're the same faction they won't attack each other.

I don't know if you can make them red teams/blue team

[modern karma]

Ah ok so it'll have to be deathclaw Vs something that isn't a deathclaw

[sturdy viper]

I don't know if you can assign one to a red Platform one to a blue platform

Or if that's just settlers

[modern karma]

I'm p sure you can't

[sturdy viper]

If you're playing on Xbox look for Cages Overhauled.

[modern karma]

This playthrough is vanilla unfortunately

I'll just have to pit a deathclaw against a yao guai

Obviously not the most fair fight but it's the best I can do

[sturdy viper]

Have you tried to signing them to the red team blue team

[modern karma]

My arena doesn't have the assigning posts and it wasn't designed around them

It's all good tho deathclaw Vs Yao guai still sounds like valid entertainment

[sturdy viper]

You put red versus blue on the other side of a warehouse garage door? I don't know if the death claws will get through the garage door?

[copper patio]

when do you see the big brotherhood ship fly by? i think I skipped it by mistake by fast traveling and then an npc mentioned it

after Kellogg?

[stiff dome]

After going out of Fort Hagen mission. The ship will only spawns if you go out from the elevator.

[copper patio]

okay that must be how I missed it

is there a way to trigger it by console command or going back to Fort helgan?

[stiff dome]

you can go back to use the elevator to unbug your playthrough

[copper patio]

Alright

[copper patio]

After SpaceX

[modern nymph]

NextGen update hype

[sleek cave]

Any word on the Next gen update I hope we hear something soon, I’m on series X with some mods having a great time still.

[copper patio]

are you meant to find a legendery radium rifle in vault 88?

[lilac saffron]

I don’t think so. Could be wrong

[copper patio]

it's two shot

Did I just break the game?

[rough glade]

Any new on next gen update?

[stiff scarab]

huehuehue don't think its coming this year at least not before starfield

[fiery tundra]

is there a mod for mortar
As in, you can 'deploy' a mortar for arching fire yourself?

[versed jay]

I have project idea for ANYONE and EVERYONE who would want to be involved, it's a backrooms style mod that everyone across all of the fallout creators can test and outsource their mods and collaborate freely in a liminal space in there own rooms or hallways, everyone is very busy these days with jobs and kids that most creators don't have the time or resources or even the expertise to bring there Ideas to life, It would be a constantly updated and growing mod that everyone could join in on contributing towards making larger without feeling pressured by time or quantity, it would be a place where everyone can just focus on quality and even just making there own ideas happen without those ideas being overshadowed, we could make a YouTube page dedicated to uploading videos of whatever players and creators have in mind that anyone can submit and upload to we could have a peer review process for testing mods and making sure no one is uploading anything inappropriate things, but it would also be a completely open mod that anyone can contribute their ideas or creations to because of how weird the backrooms is. And having such a liminal space to work in would provide lots of space so people could claim a sort of "plot" within each space or make different interior cells so they can make whatever rooms they want, it would be entirely open to the public to create and discover and no one would need to feel pressured on there creations but also a space to find like minded people to collaborate with or to be able to outsource your ideas.

If anyone has any thoughts or ideas I'd love to hear about them

[placid sparrow]

if a synth has neurons of sorts that allow for self thought and growth, doesn't that mean they classify as life or at minimum sentient AI?

[lilac saffron]

The question of whether a synthetic being with neurons that enable self-thought and growth classifies as life or sentient AI is a complex and philosophical one. The answer may depend on how we define and understand life and sentience.

In traditional biological terms, life is characterized by various attributes such as the ability to grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, and maintain homeostasis. If a synthetic being possesses these qualities through its neuron-like structures, it could be argued that it exhibits life-like properties.

Sentience, on the other hand, refers to the capacity for subjective experience, consciousness, and self-awareness. While neurons could potentially enable a synthetic being to exhibit sophisticated cognitive functions, it is difficult to determine if they would necessarily lead to true sentience. Sentience is still not fully understood, and its emergence in artificial systems remains an open question.

It's worth noting that the question of whether synthetic beings should be considered alive or sentient also has ethical and societal implications. The classification of such beings could impact how we treat and interact with them. These are important considerations that require careful thought and discussion as we continue to advance in the field of AI and synthetic biology.

[placid sparrow]

definitely a more complex scenario than what I stated lol

[lilac saffron]

I thought it would be funny to allow AI to respond to that 😂. It’s worth noting that I’m dumb. 🫠

[placid sparrow]

EEWWW

[versed jay]

Yo are you allowed to post discord links in here lol?

I'd love if you all would join

[thorn summit]

No, Im sorry It is considered advertising. If you want to give someone a link, please do so in private.

[versed jay]

Thank you!

[maiden skiff]

what to do if i lost dogmeat

[versed jay]

What are you on console or PC

[simple ginkgo]

any news on the update?

[trail ridge]

Nope 😦

[lusty ice]

I'm wondering the same thing, I joined the server just now to ask. I am extremely looking forward to the next generation Fallout 4 update

I'm barely used to playing games at 30 FPS hahaha

[simple ginkgo]

yeah

[lusty ice]

It's crazy to think that. Back in the day when I was a kid I didn't even know it was FPS, now I can't play unless 30

Sorry if my English is not too correct, I'm from Brazil hahaha

I'm an amateur in the English language

[simple ginkgo]

yeah i use to feel the same way my first fps was fallout then i feel in love with the seires mostly fall out

[viscid inlet]

where Fallout 4 next gen update? 😔 👌

[vague basin]

2023 still has 5 months left.

[torpid galleon]

"When it's done."

[fiery tundra]

May I ask

• I know Gen3 synth NPCs will count as humans
• but do Gen1 and Gen2 Institute synths count as humans or robots? Or do any damage-mitigation legendary effects work?
• Institute Synths armed with AKeVolk are absolutely kicking my ass 😦

[gloomy mauve]

Let'ss gooooo formatting the computer worked and now I can finally play fallout4 for the first time

[sand steppe]

Anyone know if it's okay to upload body presets for different shapes on bethesda net?

[grave pecan]

What do you guys think is better on survival? Piper or codsworth? Piper has little less hp and probably less dmg output but has more carry weight

[lilac saffron]

Just kick their asses back

[copper patio]

What is Nuka Cola Quantum used for? is it okay to drink it or is it finite like in 3?

[copper patio]

I know it's used for the thirst zapper

[hexed ferry]

Anyone else having problem with Fallout 4 on Windows 10 ? Recentrly i switched from Win 7 to Win 10 and now Fallout crashes as soon as i click Play from the launcher. All drivers are updated, i tried running the game as admin and in compatibility mode, did a file integrity check and there are no mods installed, but it still crashes.

[copper patio]

have you tried the unoffical patch>

[hexed ferry]

Yes, tried that too.

[copper patio]

Okay, maybe check this?
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Fallout_4

[hexed ferry]

I'll give it a shot, Thanks!

[desert idol]

hi ive got a question my controller isnt broken nor does it have drift problems but on one section of pip boy when i go to scroll down on quests in pip boy it scrolls back up instead of down is this a glitch?

[desert idol]

i fixed it it was a bug with brotherhood questline

[torpid galleon]

Do you have a modern nvidia card? (Anything past the 10x0 series?)

[arctic knoll]

my game crashes on start when modded what can or should do??

[junior imp]

mess with the load order and see which mod is breaking it

[arctic knoll]

@junior imp tried it too much of a hassle

[junior imp]

then idk what to tell you hahaha

[lilac saffron]

Should I get goty edition physical or digital

Which one works better

For Xbox series x

[hexed ferry]

No, i have an old GeForce GTX 980

[simple ginkgo]

wow same as me

[elfin turtle]

Hello! I cant believe i never picked up on this before now since ive been playing for so long but.. um is Danse voiced by George Clooney?? Sure sounds a lot like him!

Paladin Danse, that is, BOS.

[simple ginkgo]

now that i am not sure

[elfin turtle]

if it isnt, they are a dead ringer. I generally am quite interested in who voices who in vid games especially if they are well known actors so i'll be surprised i never heard about clooney voicing him if it is. actually i could just google it. that just occured to me. 4.30am and i clearly need more sleep 😛

oh there you go! its not, his name is Peter Jessop and he is an actor as well as a voice artist. now i know why he sounds familiar, he was in RDR2 a lot as local pedestrian populous people 🙂

oh he voiced Miraak in skyrim too!! thats incredible. so many voice actors' talents blow my mind.

[simple ginkgo]

yeah

[wicked raft]

where can i post irl fallout stuff?

[pure sigil]

#off-topic maybe 🤷‍♂️

[simple ginkgo]

i guess so

[sick vault]

#fallout-general-chat maybe?

[copper patio]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuVDE6oMGro

[lilac saffron]

Hahah thats what i used to think, but no, it is a voice actor, iirc one thats done a few other things.

[swift locust]

I literally opened the menu like 2 seconds after getting hit by the mini-nuke

[sinful iron]

hello one question, i am playing survival mode for the first time and i am lvl 10, is it normal to find lots of ammo ? i just went into concord and found like 40 bullets of 308 ammo which sounds a bit excessive

[trail ridge]

You'll go through that in no time

[torpid galleon]

I assure you, that's not nearly as excessive as you think

[drowsy sail]

is it rare to find the ammo for the last minute gun? its 2mm EC and i've never seen that ammo

[pure sigil]

2mm electromagnetic cartridge (EC) are pretty rare as it only starts spawning in rare loot from level 22
Also certain vendors won't sell it until level 28 and it is pricey.

[magic current]

anyone recall how many people were in the BOS recon team artimas

[scarlet sky]

7

Six were killed i think

[magic current]

apparently there was 5 knights that were killed where they had to ditch the power armour then ghouls got 1 super mutants got another and brandis popped off to the bunker

[peak willow]

Hello!

[drowsy sail]

dang i was gonna buy it now at lvl 18 but it seems better to buy later?

[split tusk]

Hiiiii

[keen breach]

I have a question, what is the best weapon to fully upgrade

[dry dagger]

WHERE IS THE DISHONORED CHAT

[severe berry]

That one was done by Arkane Studios, so you'll find the Dishonored chat on their server. Just Google the following and you should find the invite link to their server: arkane studios discord

[dry dagger]

thanks you

[primal moat]

The second you figure out you can build settlements, in FO4 back when we all started it...

A whole new world opened

😂 now we all wander trough the wastland listening to "wanderer" while building new better buildings in our improvised sattlements, and enjoy a cool refreshing cola, ingame and in reality 😂 life can be so beautiful if you have a few hours time to focuse on a outstanding game that is deep and beautiful filled with lots of story and love into detail.

Fallout 4 is one of those games that you play and enjoy, and even when you leave it for a while, your grabbed and dragged into as soon as your about to play it.

[cloud dew]

anyone know why the command for increasing build limit in settlements isnt working anymore even though it worked fine the first time i used it? the commands are working and it says its changed the amounts but then i open the build menu and it still hasnt increased

ive tried using the set and mod versions

ive tried it at multiple settlements and they wont work either

i even tried installing a mod to remove the limit and it didnt work

I don't understand why nothing will work anymore for increasing the bnuild limit it's driving me crazy

[cloud dew]

well i found a mod that works for it, just means no achievements for me I guess

[pure sigil]

@cloud dew you don't need mods or console commands.
When the settlement build limit is reached drop a bunch of high poly weapons one at a time on the ground. Go into build mode and select Store on each one. For each one stored you will see the build limit bar decrease allowing you to build more.
Since the weapons are stored in the Workbench you can retrieve them and repeat the process.

[north needle]

gamma gun is particularly effective for that in my experience
