If your charisma is at least 5 you might be able too convince him, but you'll probably have to reload a few times.

[vagrant sun]

I know they're not. As shown in my next comment about people not even finishing tutorial in a lot of games etc.

But I was just curious if you saw or read something from Bethesda definitively stating that they decided not to develop 'bad' routes due to those achievements?

[green mango]

Ah almost forgot don't get the Season pass for STS download the individual downloads but wait on getting the STS Automatron until after you complete the Automatron DLC. Cause for some reason if you go to the Machinist Lair with it installed before completing the DLC it wigs out.

[chrome summit]

Need some help

can't open the 'transfer' menu when looting defeated enemies

[waxen pebble]

They stopped updating the Pipboy app after Automatron released. For Far Harbor and Nuka World, the new world maps don't appear in the app. Map markers are correct, but the background world map is still the Commonwealth. I've always used the Android version which was taken down years ago, but still worked. I haven't tried it yet with Next Gen.

[austere epoch]

I finished Automatron. I'm also sitting at around 95 mods out of 100, and I have a couple more I'm interested in, so I'd really like it to just be one mod. Will the season pass one be okay if Automatron is finished?

About a week ago I decided to finish that quest because I was tired of 90% of settlement raids being robots who drop useless loot. Can't arm my settlers with Assaultron body mods and circuit boards. Now I finally get raiders and gunners again

[inner mesa]

I think im encountering some bug with the settlement system bc when I fast travel to quincy the game gives me a notification that I failed to defend sanctuary when there was no raid going on

I know there was no raid because loaded back and fast traveled and nobody was attacking so I didn't miss a notification but when I travel from mercer safehouse to quincy I get a message that I failed to defend sanctuary

[urban sail]

There are a few tins of Grape Mentats in the bunker that Danse is hiding in, if you take those your Charisma will temporarily increase by 5

[austere epoch]

Does anyone know how to attach string lights to anything?

[rigid bay]

Yeah, they've said it a couple times, but I didn't save any articles I can easily share. They have mentioned (not specifically achievement data, though that would be available to them) that because "most people chose good options" in Fallout 3 that they went with a good-only story for Fallout 4 (though, they worded it better).

But yeah, "Gamerscore" and "Achievements" (or "Trophies") is just the user-facing side of it. Their actual purpose is to provide publishers with actionable information on how people play. As you said, there's almost always an achievement for starting the game. That tells them when you started. From there, they can see how long every other achievement took you to get. What you prioritized. I don't think Xbox/Valve/Sony are telling them who exactly did what. They don't need to. I think they just get charts or something. X people did this in this amount of time, etc. And of course some publishers don't care. Like games like "Avatar: TLA: TBE" where you can just get your 1000GS by punching a bunch of dudes. They don't care who gets that and who doesn't. But a big studio like Bethesda? Look at what the achievements are for and you can see the kinds of questions they're asking their players. With Fallout 3 it was, "you have 3 karma paths, which one will most of you take?" With Fallout 4, most of them were main quest/faction stuff, but a few of them were mutually exclusive. They didn't need achievements to tell them how to make Fallout 5. They know their audience. What they likely did need achievements for, was to see which ending most of us went for first. The one we went for by instinct, basically. The one that made the most sense to us. They haven't said what ending that is, but it could be the one made canon. (Which, if the Prydwen in the TV show was the one from Fallout 4, and the show takes place after, we might have our answer. I'm not sure about that though.)

[sleek cave]

Had some fun playing fallout 4 today PS5 version it had been awhile and love Bethesda if I’m not playing one of there amazing ips I’m watching YouTube on Bethesda games 🥳 ❤️

[weak coyote]

Use sts with living and dead plug in, doesn't break anything.

[weak coyote]

Sts aio + living and dead plug in works just fine.

[spare rivet]

How do i do the molecular level mission? I have the plans but can't give them to Preston

[austere epoch]

It's buggy as heck. If you aren't physically there until the Completed notification, the game basically rolls a die and decides whether or not the attack succeeded. But you can hang out there for days without triggering the completion notification for whatever dumb reason. Maybe some enemy was stuck under the world map. It's very dumb

If you're using cages always have a backup generator for your beta wave emitter for this reason. I lost an Albino Deathclaw because the game decided some raiders managed to damage the main generator at a settlement with like 200 defense

[urban sail]

You need to give them to Sturges, not Preston

[austere epoch]

One time I went to defend Sanctuary, killed like 10 robots, then hung out there for like two game days fixing some houses. I left for Tenpines, and when I was about halfway there I got a notification that I'd failed to defend Sanctuary and it had taken damage

I'll choose to believe a stronger second wave was camping across the river just waiting for the feared General to leave

[final mica]

Would be smart for the raiders to do so

[spare rivet]

He says he has nothing else he needs right now

[compact nimbus]

I am so close to having an aneurysm, i made a fallout 4 account on my xbox, and im currently trying to sign into it on a PlayStation 5. The problem i currently have is that i made the account 3-4 years ago, and it never asked me to add a display name, and i cant find the answer i put down for the security question, does anyone know who i can contact to fix this?

[heady current]

Please see the following article for what to do. You may need to contact customer support via the link in the article if you do not have access to the account: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/36975

[deft crane]

Does anybody have any advice for the revere satellite array?

[blazing pike]

You have to have an Xbox account to play FO4 on PS?

[compact nimbus]

No, i was just trying to sign into the bethesda account i made on my xbox

[rigid bay]

Sniper. Ideally, kit out the Overseer's Guardian, for its two-shot ability, but any good sniper rifle will work. There's a place (I forget exactly where) where you can crouch down and soften the area up.

The issue you're likely running into is the Super Mutant in that dish toward the middle with the missile launcher. Take him out, no one really goes up there so it's unlikely to be picked up by another Super Mutant, unless he falls to the ground. Even then, a missile launcher isn't that effective in close quarters.

The more difficult location to clear is the relay station to the north (I forget the name, it's a settlement) because there's an NPC with a Fat Man, and there aren't as many good sniping opportunities. It isn't a good settlement though, so it's best avoided altogether, though there is a skill book there (+10% damage at night, IIRC).

Actually, in most Bethesda games, if you come across an area that has an overwhelming force, it's best to pick off the tough ones, draw some of the foot soldiers out away from the rest, take them out one at a time, and swoop in and sweep up the remaining forces.

[final mica]

Alternatively…
PSYCHO JET

[compact nimbus]

I know that qwq

Im saying my Bethesda account was made on my xbox and i dont know any of the login stuff qwq

[weak coyote]

You have to make a new one, it won't load Xbox mods on the Playstation mod library

[compact nimbus]

Damn okay

Thank you

[weak coyote]

Couldn't you just select forgot password thing and get a password reset sent to your email?

[blazing pike]

Ah

Yeah you’re screwed. Youll lose you Xbox mods. It’s big sad

[supple oar]

All radio stations except Diamond City Radio aren't working. Anyone know a fix? (fresh playthrough with no mods)

[final mica]

are the radio stations youre trying to listen to the CC content ones?

[supple oar]

Yes, and the one to start the Automaton story

[austere epoch]

Surely you aren't talking about County Crossing

Best settlement location in the game imo. Still have Piper and Ada living there. It was my main base of operations for a long time

[austere epoch]

Do you have The Castle yet with Minutemen Radio? I found that occasionally caused my radio stations to stop working across the board. The fix was disconnecting and reconnecting the transmitter at the Castle from its power source, lol. Really weird glitch

[vast dawn]

john fallout

wait you can do that?

[austere epoch]

Gone Hunting/Fishing has let me make some settlements so much better. I turned Egret Marina into a fishing village and got rid of all the mutfruit trees taking up space in the front. Turned Somerville place into a radstag hunting ground. One station generates 6 food, takes up so much less space than crops, and can fit the aesthetic of a place so much better

Cait just sits in a chair by the water at The Castle fishing. I should add a table with some beers

[austere epoch]

Wish I could pair off Cait and MacCready. I feel like they'd be good together. As it is Little Mac occasionally gives me the romance flag, but not to the extent of Preston who I had to exile because he wouldn't shut up about it

Maybe I'll put a fishing chair for MacCready next to Cait and just pretend they're a couple

[ashen ore]

Yes but if ha e him has your companion after brother hood will become hostile

[vast dawn]

bad companian

[ashen ore]

Don't know how they find out I guess some magic power

[austere epoch]

Wondering if I want to rebuild some settlements now that I've gotten way better at building and discovered place anywhere tools and wood/barn retextures. Like I could make my County Crossing so much better, but on the other hand its dumpiness and walls that don't line up kind of has an appeal

I think I do want to rebuild Oberland as an actual train station

[neat vine]

hey, I just got fo4 on steam with the intention of modding it. Do I still ned to downgrade my game from the next gen patch?

[vagrant sun]

what do you mean downgrade

[deft crane]

Yeh

[rigid bay]

No, I love that settlement. I meant way to the north, just east of Tenpines Bluff. Besides, there's no enemy at County Crossing, let alone one with a Fat Man.

I like to set up shops along the road, but I always shore up defenses toward the armory and the satellite station. Good farming settlement.

[vagrant sun]

Hub City Auto Wreckers? the place overrun with gunners and a unique Gunner NPC at the top of the ruined bridge with a makeshift shack and fatman overlooking Saugus Ironworks?

Also, 'm going i'm insane trying to farm decent legandary gear, all i want is an explosive shotgun 😦

[rigid bay]

But a combat shotgun, not a double barrel, right? Yeah, explosive legendary is goated, especially with perks and the bobblehead

Outpost Zimonja is the settlement I was talking about
Had to Google it

[vagrant sun]

yeah, combat. just sucks there's no natural way to create our own gear like that

i'm lvl 91, and i keep getting ugly 'operator' or 'pack' armour as the legendary drop, with useless perks for my desires

[rigid bay]

For real. There's a mod to do it, probably a few mods by now. The one I like comes with cheat and lore-friendly options, so you can choose your comfort level. I can't remember the name. Not looking it up. Anyway, you can pull the Legendary effect off one gun and put it on another. Or you could craft a Legendary "chip" for some insane amount of some ultra-rare crafting stuff, and then use so many "chips" to get the best Legendary modifications (like Explosive, Two-Shot, Sentinel) and then you can sorta make your own Legendaries

[vagrant sun]

Imo, 2024, games these days should have a way to make our own, but be super lengthy process... so there's still a long grind for either way, just at least a bit of a process... heck, it can even be more fun if done right, the sole purpose of grind to keep us playing longer

i play on xbox, mods like that will disable achievements, and i still prefer natural processes, weird ocd thing

hell... i'm still struggling with the fact i compulsively reload a game if i idle for even 30 seconds even if i'm paused in my pip-boy or menu

[coral tapir]

Howdy peeps, I've got some questions about the fallout 4 next-gen update. I'm playing on the series x and am running into a lot of low frame-rates and staggering when traveling across the over-world. I'm currently playing in performance mode and it doesn't seem to help much of anything. Fallout 4 prior to the update worked flawlessly with the fps boost option enabled. Now it's a buggy mess.

Is there anything I can do to smoothen the gameplay experience? Maybe lower graphic fidelity? Perhaps not run as many mods? I'm a bit lost.

[undone perch]

Mods are what's causing the issue here, I'd wager. Going from 30 to 60 FPS can be taxing.

I'm playing on Xbox Series X as well, no mods, and playing in Visuals Mode at 60 FPS. I am not having the issues you describe.

[coral tapir]

Thanks, I'll give that a try and see what happens.

[undone perch]

If you can, I'd recommend removing all of your mods and testing the game. If all's well, keep adding mods one at a time until you seem to go one too far.

The you know either how many you can add, or potentially which one is causing the issue.

[austere epoch]

Useful technical documents? I have that one. It's 10 technical documents to craft a legendary mod

[austere epoch]

Outpost Zimonja? I had fun setting that one up, but I rarely visit

I did an assassination for Marowski, and Piper threatened to break up with me 🙁

[weak coyote]

I use this settlement to set up a supermutant settlement for Strong, using USO.
It far from anyone that would shoot them on sight, a place for Strong to send others that share his mentality.

[austere epoch]

This is genius. I kind of want to do this now. I have him at Abernathy Farm. In my headcanon he's learning about the milk of human kindness from the Abernathys

[white silo]

Hi all, ever since the Fallout 4 next-gen update, I can't get it to launch on Win11. It worked beautifully before the update. Currently, the splash screen launcher (with Play, Options, Support, and Exit) runs fine, but when I hit Play, Fallout 4 itself launches then immediately exits. I've tried re-installing it, tinkering with display options, running all the fallout .exes as admin, and selecting compatibility mode for win 8, but none of these help. What can I try next?

[jagged kindle]

does the increased ammo spawn rate count for dead bodies?

[white silo]

ahh i needed to use Vortex to update/disable some mods. Happy gaming all.

[proven elm]

Please post mod-related topics in #fallout-4-mods or #1067505929534320700

[austere epoch]

Level 88 and I finally got Curie

[manic wigeon]

Hey, modders of the server, is there an NPC mod for XB1 that makes them retreat if outclassed/outgunned/out manned?

[errant echo]

id suggest asking in #fallout-4-mods

[austere epoch]

Alright I'm doing it. Level 88 and I'm finally going into the Glowing Sea

I'm running a few mods that will make this harder. One called Glowing Sea Glowing Creatures that adds a bunch of enemies, and one that makes radiation way more dangerous across the board

Got an RPG party going with Curie and an autonomous Sentinel power armor that I put in Hellfire Mk6

[lilac saffron]

Roar, bring it! (on jet)

[weak coyote]

Npc's use ammo mod may give you the effect your looking for, when they run outta ammo, they run away and cower.

[austere epoch]

So every raider is just done after they fire the 13 .38 rounds they're carrying?

[weak coyote]

The mod gives them more ammo.

It even works with mods that add dlc weapons to the commonwealth npcs

[magic current]

how do i get more ammo for the chinese grenade launcher?

[weak coyote]

Check vendors
Ammo and weapon has also been added to loot lists, but it's kinda rare to show up in either.

[worthy granite]

Hello, I'm having problems on a mission in Fallout 4, every time I finish the mission I die because of the radiation, I don't have a radar, what can I do?

I can't restart the mission either because it auto-saved

[urban sail]

Which mission?

[worthy granite]

echoes of the past, atlantic office

I basically die from radiation even though I have the power suit.

[urban sail]

Do you have any Rad-X or RadAway you can use?

[weak coyote]

So the auto save loads you in a death loop?

[worthy granite]

Yes, that's it, I already solved it, the only way was to put a mod, I put it in and removed it again

[worthy granite]

I no longer had rad-away and radx, it didn't do anything

[weak coyote]

Could have just loaded an earlier save, 3 autosaves are created.

[deft crane]

I need help with a huge bug. I sided with the BOS, but didn’t know I had to issue the evacuation order before || blowing up the institute || and now he’s stuck in his “the institute is gone, I’m glad about that I guess” speech loop and no matter what I do it won’t fix. I can’t use console commands since I’m on ps5, any advise?

[solemn meadow]

hey did anyone else’s fallout 4 get a “could not connect to Bethesda servers” error?

[misty shell]

I just can't close the update message, have had it since the update

[solemn meadow]

Why are all of these issues happening all of a sudden

[full mango]

https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status

[solemn meadow]

just got the notification as you sent that

[misty shell]

I have had it since the update

[solemn meadow]

Xbox’s servers just had an accident in their pants

[misty shell]

One thing that is funny is that I can open the console, yet not close the message of the update

[solemn meadow]

you’ve said this multiple times

[misty shell]

ah, sorry

[tough haven]

I'm modding my game and using the high physics mod, but every time I launch it, the FPS is stuck at 60. I've set it to 120 FPS, but it keeps capping at 60. Any ideas on how to fix this?

[civic mulch]

Hi

[slim crag]

im stuck at the ending cutscene, it just freezes at the start, any fixes for it?

[weak coyote]

A chunk of the players have been experiencing this since the recent update.
Everyone is waiting for an update to the update...

[slim crag]

hi, do you have any fixes to a problem where i freeze at the start of the ending cutscene?

[plucky ibex]

Hi I was wondering if its possible to change the refresh rate of fallout 4

[slim crag]

do you have fixes to a problem where i freeze at the start of the ending cutscene?

[plucky ibex]

sadly no

[slim crag]

aw

i always froze once the ending cutscene starts playing

[weak coyote]

Try spamming the skip button immediately, like right before the cutscene starts

[plucky ibex]

is there a way to change the refresh rate of FO4?

[slim crag]

alrighty!

[grim valve]

What if Liberty Prime vs Frank Horrigan?

[plucky ibex]

liberty prime would win

[austere epoch]

Playing this Enclave DLC, and idk why I'm one-shotting Enclave soldiers in X-02 power armor. They should basically be bosses

[slim crag]

do you have fixes for a problem where i freeze at the start of the ending cutscene?

[weak coyote]

10 seconds Google searching...

Try hitting escape and then hit enter a bunch of times (open menu then press select repeatedly). That works sometimes when I'm stuck in the intro.

Or try T or whatever your skip button is

I tried this and it worked! Just spammed T and it skipped the cutscene. Didn't crash or anything

[austere epoch]

Whoever told me to get STS, thank you. It was worth it just to turn a dead settler into fertilizer

[jagged kindle]

is it possible to lock yourself out of an ending by not killing the nuka world raiders?

or does it only lock you out of preston’s perk

[random spire]

Hello! A reminder that this chat is for Fallout 4, if you would like to report a scam account please do so via ModMail so the moderator team can investigate. Thank you!

[sleek cave]

I get the feeling next gen patch has more dialogue like unofficial patch does noticing a few changes while playing and chatting to npcs etc

[robust panther]

Guys...is there a perk that stops explosives from hurting you? I'm using a legendary augment weapon that has exploding bullets but can't use it at close range

[vagrant sun]

Chest armour has a mod regarding explosions. Just don't recall if it was partial or fully

[robust panther]

Ah ok thanks 😀

[grim valve]

I had this problem not with the final scene, and I fixed it by loading the last save before the start of the scene and restarting the game

[plush sentinel]

Guys I need help cuz in fallout 4 vats don’t work? Like I’ve been trying to but it won’t happen. If there’s ways like settings or somthing else please dm or ping me

Is there a way to get danse back after completing listening post bravo?

[urban sail]

If you kept him alive he will still be available as a companion, but the Brotherhood will be temporarily hostile until you dismiss him.

[dull obsidian]

Hello everyone i'm facing a problem
Since yesterday my game (fallout 4) crash at the launch when i click on play on the launcher i see a little bit the animation of the intro and then my games crashes
In my task manager i see then when the game crash my GPU goes at 100% i've tried so many things like reinstall, change the graphics settings on the laucher, etc
Here's my config:
Amd Ryzen 7 5800 X
32Go RAM
1To SSD M2 (where the game is installed)
Nvidia RTX 3060 12 GB
MSI 750W
Two screen on 1920x1080
The game crashes since a power outage in my house yesterday
I've unistall all the mods and before today it was crashing at the launch of my save but since this morning it's on the first loading screen
I hope somebody can help me thanks in advance !

[deft crane]

So nobody was going to tell me the enclave is just casually in fallout 4 💀

[dull obsidian]

An update some file from yesterday hasn't be deleted now i've deleted it but still crash at the launch of my save

[deft crane]

Why is the pyro quest like the second quest too btw, pyro is a tough fight by itself, let alone the enclave patrol

[frozen acorn]

So nobody is gonna tell me how to play fallout

[weak coyote]

Nah, figure it out, Too much hand holding in games as is ;p

[weak coyote]

Bugs can get baked into saves... Time to start over.

[dull obsidian]

it's a big save i dont want to start over again 😢

[crimson badge]

Hello guys

[worldly niche]

Question is there a wiki or guide for creature that you can capture and what they coexist with safely

[dull obsidian]

update i've just load a quick save just before so it works

[worldly niche]

I know bloodbug will attack molerats

[urban sail]

https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Cage_(Wasteland_Workshop)
You need to build a beta wave emitter to prevent captured creatures from being hostile to you and other settlers.
They will always be hostile to captured creatures from other species.

[jagged kindle]

imagine if the npcs found out their beds were made out of cigarette cartons

[steady iron]

🤣

[weak coyote]

It's pretty common thing with Bethesda games.
You either get restartitis... Or forced to because of bugs.
Get used to it.

[jagged kindle]

why does my game crash, its like really rare but it crashes randomly

[slender gulch]

Do you use mods?

[weak coyote]

It's just how these games are, it's going to happen.

[safe swift]

Anyone know a power armor spot? I’m kinda new to fallout 4

[austere epoch]

If I were packing in 40 settlers, blowing past the build limit or running some crazy lighting mods that would be one thing, but there's no excuse for the game just randomly crashing in an unmodded settlement with 15 people and the build bar not even at 50%

God, there are retextures I want to use for barn walls that are only for wood, and vice versa. It's so dumb

[jagged kindle]

no

[slender gulch]

First mission you get power armour. Full set of T-45 Power Armour.

[plucky ibex]

wait what

[limpid glacier]

I've got a problem with the creation clubs sentinel power armor where when I picked up the personality matrix after killing the Rouge power armor it just moved to marker onto my position and said I still needed to kill it

How do I fix or remove it

[vagrant sun]

Fire off a nuke and falliut become a reality

[deft crane]

Check out the quest || “pyro” ||

[vagrant sun]

It's not. That's some stupid Creation Club stuff they decided to force on us by baking it into the next gen update.

Which is super stupid with the whole dialogue with the Glowing Sea from Doctor Amari and "no one would willingly go there as there's no way to survive " and CC content has Enclave just chilling there.

Enclave are seemingly gone for now in canon. Including that without giving us the choice just breaks the flow, especially for people who don't realuse it's not base game content

[deft crane]

Oh damn

At least it’s free content, still would have liked to have the option, but I’ll take some power power armor

[tawdry wigeon]

zao has aubnique skin texture unlike most gholls who have a living woun dcolor he is pale
like he realy lived 200 years

[tropic zodiac]

need some help here, creation menu is not showing up in the main menu
i have tried this solution and didn't work for me:
https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/65548

[vagrant sun]

The real issue is there's a forced quest item too.whoever made the mod decided "people need more quest items they can not get rid of" so there's a terminal in the atlantic office that you have no choice but to pick up the password to unlock.

[sleek cave]

Happy to report I re installed all of my skins cc on PlayStation 5 no issues and no crashing and they all working. I used to have issues PS4 always crashed or 0kb save error. PS5 no mods and a lot of skins downloaded they all worked 😁 ❤️

[undone perch]

You mean the Enclave is gone overall, or just from the Commonwealth? Because they're definitely still around on the west coast at least.

[robust panther]

Guys the Google searching didn't help...Rayburn point in far harbor is it a settlement or what?

[regal urchin]

Who's up for Liberty Prime to celebrate America's birthday?

[urban sail]

No, it's not a settlement that can be owned by the player

[austere epoch]

Not sure if this is a placebo or not, but I decided to vastly reduce the number of items I had in inventory by scrapping or selling hundreds of weapons and armor/clothing pieces I'd accumulated and using a shipments mod to turn all my junk items into shipments of core components. Went from probably a few thousand items in inventory to a few hundred. And the game seems to crash less

Felt kinda bad when the teddy bears got turned into cloth, but whatever

[jagged kindle]

wait the tesla cannon isnt supposed to be in the game?

[weak coyote]

Added by next Gen update ccc

[magic current]

wish we could rename our save files on xbox

[jagged kindle]

if they added it in an update how can we be sure it ISNT canon?

[lilac saffron]

people who like bethesda will probably say its canon, people who dont will probably say it isnt

[limpid glacier]

How do you uninstall creation club content

[lilac saffron]

delete the game and reinstall it.. and then dont install the creation club content that's the only way on console, you cannot get rid of any of the CC automatically installed by the next gen update

[austere epoch]

It's kind of stupid that you can buy like 12 dogs on CC, and the Christmas CC quest gives you a bunch of dog Santa hats and reindeer antlers, but you can't equip the items on the dogs

I tried to reverse pickpocket antlers onto a Shiba Inu and all that happened is the whole settlement attacked me and I had to reload

[waxen pebble]

Well, looks like no updates for the Creation Club sale this month. They probably figured the Rainbow and Patriotic paints would cover both June and July.

[lilac saffron]

Hey guys how do I add a mod from bethesda.net on to my game (xbox1)

[weak coyote]

Go to the in game mod menu on the main menu

How have you not seen it...

[atomic moat]

hi what do if death claw is runing at you and you only have one mini nuke. A blow both of you up. B except your fate.
C try to run.

[weak coyote]

D. None of the above.

Switch weapons.

There will probably be one more update to address the VATS issue that's been widely reported. Players have been begging for Bethesda to stop the updates because of the havoc they've wrought on the modding scene. But, the VATS problem is one that really needs to be fixed. Has anyone seen anything from Bethesda about another update?

[jagged kindle]

how do I open fallout 76 without it just being a black screen (im sorry but fallout 76 chat is just ignoring me)

[heady current]

I would recommend opening a thread in #1087805680829857822

[lilac saffron]

I need answers, should i side with the Institute or the BoS and nuke the Institute? Im rn choosing which side i join

[urban sail]

I like the BoS route better

[placid mist]

Hey guys

[magic current]

one thing im glad they didnt fix is the power armour jets getting stuck on cuz theres some funny moments ive had

[robust wharf]

i cant believe its bin more or less the 2 month and we dount have a date for the next fallout 4 patch.

[thick burrow]

Can I do the following quests and still do the MM ending (this is the first time I've played the game). I completed Battle of Bunker Hill and lied to Sean

-from within
-outside the wire
-liberty reprimed
-blind betrayal
-underground undercover

After that I'm planning on putting the kibosh on Sean

[weak coyote]

Don't choose from your perspective.
The question is what would your character choose.

[weak coyote]

progressed as far as possible without siding with a faction - this is the point of no return I found:

Brotherhood: Blind Betrayal underway, but not finished.

You can complete it all the way up to the last objective (report to elder maxson), but finishing Blind Betrayal starts Tactical Thinking automatically - which is the mission where you destroy the railroad.

Institute: Mass Fusion started, but not progressed at all.

Progressing in the quest will force you to make enemies with the brotherhood. (The game will warn you at the point where progressing will make you permanent enemies with the brotherhood)

Railroad: Underground Undercover started, but not finished.

You're expected to have this quest active while finishing Mass Fusion for the institute, and doing that will aggro the brotherhood on you.

Minutemen: Minutemen ending is essentially available forever and will just kick in once you make an enemy with either the brotherhood or the institute.

[thick burrow]

Thanks. That's what I thought. I saw it in the wiki but wanted to double check

[toxic mason]

Hey i gonna kill mr newscaster at the beginning

[weak coyote]

Google or youtube "three way peace"

[vagrant sun]

More than just the VATS chance to hit?

[vagrant sun]

If you're evil, side with Institute. Or, if you're evil, side with BoS.

[undone perch]

Would the Minutemen and Railroad be the "good" factions then?

[vagrant sun]

Minutemen are just a defending their own faction.

Railroad is technically more complex since the synths they rescue can still go evil

[deft crane]

Will I get killed if I kill Malcom in fallout 4 during the marowski heist quest?

And should I give Darcy the 50/50 split of caps

[jagged kindle]

where do you guys think the next fallout game will take place? we have three in the west and three in the east so far

im going to place my guess as either coastal texas or southern alaska (because of anchorage)

[full wagon]

I really want Texas or Florida

[urban sail]

New Orleans, or maybe San Francisco

[jagged kindle]

I got it to work earlier, I just had to lower my refresh rate to 120

[burnt laurel]

Rocky Mountains

Well, i don't know if it will. But that would be a good place.

[vagrant sun]

So uh... I built a vault hab on the surface and it ain't even radiation proof lol. Radioactive storm still giving me rads 😦

[vagrant sun]

Obviously only in America because Todd said something to the effect of nothing else will be done so..... maybe Ecuador or Chile?

[rigid bay]

The Railroad are basically neutral/good. On one hand, they're neutral — maybe they could program the synths to be good, but they don't. On the other, if you save a child from a burning building, and he grows up to be a serial killer, how much of that is on you? Answer: zero. So, how are the Railroad anything but good, because they save people and give them a choice?

The Railroad is also weak, and short-sighted. Only the Brotherhood has real plans for the Commonwealth. They're just a little racist (or whatever the term is for species). But military order might be exactly what the Commonwealth needs, structure, to rebuild.

Even the Institute has good ideas. They want to preserve the "future of humanity," but they don't much care about the humans who exist now. In fact, their ideal future might be seeded by synths who are advanced enough to reproduce. So, this is kind of a dark future in a sense, but at the same time, what if they could breed out/eliminate messed up stuff like cancer, make humanity better? Wouldn't it be worth it? Sucks for those who are alive now, but most of them have radiation poisoning and are susceptible to all kinds of flaws the Institute could get rid of.

[vagrant sun]

the inherent issue is the memory implanting, save a child from a fire, and it going evil isn't on you, save a synth and give it a false set of memories to fabricate a false past? if it goes evil due to the memories, that's on whoever created them.

It's also an odd choice of 'rescue' given the whole premise of 'saving' them is the whole "i want to live!" logic. but then they overwrite their memory, effectively killing 'who' they 'think' they were to 'save' them. (The institute can't hurt H5-66 if H5-66 died to create Lenny the Raider) but what's the stance on synths that go evil? capture and re-plant new memory life or kill on sight? if the former, would Railroad afford humans that same luxury or place rogue synth machines above humanity while missing the previous point about literally replacing the 'being' they saved.

Institute logic is just as weird. in their own echo chamber of "we're saving humanity!" by... killing humanity and replacing them... they could literally just stop attacking the surface there's zero need but also odd..

I also don't see much the point in their vision to preserve 'the future of humanity' if they're literally killing them to place synths, it's less steps just ending all of humanity in totality and not make synths to replace what was lost. Both are flawed.

[rigid bay]

As I said, the Railroad is short sighted. It's strictly amateur hour over there.

And Institute logic is the same as Mechanist logic. Save by destroying (and rebuilding better). And as I said, it's not about the current generation, but the future generations.

[ashen ore]

Yes they are, I side with them then will them after 😂

[digital ocean]

What game is this guy from?

[weak coyote]

Fallout

[weak coyote]

I'd like to see more ncr in the southwest

[sage willow]

That's Rip Daring, he's a pre-war radio show character who hunts down cryptids, and his shows can be heard on the radio in Fo76. There have also been a few seasons in the game themed around Rip, his allies, and the cryptids they hunt. The image you posted was art from last in-game season specifically, which had kind of a tropical cryptid hunting/Jersey Devil theme.

[digital ocean]

Oh thats why i haven't seen him before (havent played fallout 76)

[charred bay]

It has been months and I still can't open mods on console! Is this gonna be fixed or do I need to delete the game just so I can view mods again for 3 days before it does the "The operation could not be completed." Thing!?

[cosmic raptor]

Looks like ya gonna have to I have no idea when the next update is probably never at this point lol

[deft crane]

Bro dyno cmon I spent like 5 mins typing that I used the f bomb once 😭

[burnt laurel]

shoulda used the a bomb, this is a fallout channel after all

Ba-da da bom, ba-da da bom.

[deft crane]

Genuinely losing my mind playing nuka world for the first time. The fact that you, as the damn sentinel of the BOS can’t tell kells or maxson that a giant pre war (essentially fortress) theme park filled with pre war tech like reactors and robots, being protected by several radier gangs. Imagine how cool it would be to see the prydwen and a bunch of vertibirds flying into nuka world would be, and then raiding the park, taking every section one by one, and then re starting the generators and fleeing the slaves, and establishing it as a BOS station

[weak coyote]

They were saving that for the TV show.

[fervent parcel]

so on my Fallout 4 on PC (Steam), my loading screens are stuck and frozen for 10 seconds, and then it loads, the loading works, but it doesnt spin around an item like usual, its just stuck and looks like it crashed but then it loads, how can i revert it back to normal where the loading screen does what it usually does?

[vagrant sun]

The Mechanist is a Silver Shroud series villain.

The DLC is a misguided girl who sent robots out to help people but faulty robot AI determined the most efficient way to 'help' is to kill everyone it sees in a story where you can't point out the fallacy with "but you know deatg doesn't help because no one wants to die,right, you stupid robot?". But the girl never intended that to be the method of 'help'

Institute are still unnecessarily evil and saving humanity by replacing with synths is about as effective as putting googly eyes on a toaster and calling it human. Wiping out humanity to add synths ends all generations. There is no future generation.

And if you're just going to say "as i said" as a way to make an infallible point, at least remember you joined in the convo and you haven't disproved my initial comment you fought against. That the railroad stance is complicated.

[burnt laurel]

The railroad was never complicated to me. But thats mostly because İ disagree with the definition of what a synth is. Gen 1 and 2 are synths. Machines. Gen 3s are just lab grown humans. But the game in lore still treats them like machines. So if you follow the game logic that they are just machines, then the railroad is recklessly idealistic trying to save toasters. İf you think gen 3s are as İ said, and not machines, then the railroad makes sense. But, you would have to cut out the changing memory thing because that to me is implying machinery rather than "people born differently" which is what İ think Gen 3s actually are.

At that point you could just lab grow humans or clone them, why waste resources building them from scratch like they do. But thats another discussion.

[vagrant sun]

How can you disagree with the definition of a synth?

Was it born naturally from actual human beings or made in a lab?

If it's not born naturally from actual humans then it's a synth, short for synthetic meaning not an actual human no matter how advanced it is, the same fact will always be true, it's not human.

[burnt laurel]

Because a human born in a lab today is still a human in my mind.

And the jump from mechanical to organic is sorta nonsensical. Nothing you would have learned from building gen 1 and 2s would have helped you to make gen 3s, they are kind of disconnected in my mind.
This is all a me issue, not a game lore problem.

We cant build humans from scratch in real life. But if we could I would imagine it would have more to do with coding custom genomes and inserting them into cells used to have natural births or test tube births.

[vagrant sun]

Are we..... birthing humans in labs currently in the real world to have this very specific opinion?

Same question for are we making actual synths in the real world.

If we're having humans born in labs, it's ethically questionable but not something regarding synths

If we bring souls into the equation. Synths definitely lack that, especially if made by nerds who murdered the surface humans for their project

[burnt laurel]

I dont think its been successfully done lab grown humans yet, but I have not looked super into it. You could call robots we have now like proto-gen 1 synths probably.

We have robots that can be very agile and avoiding falling and manipulate their environment well, we have ai that can emulate human voices really well and give somewhat decent responses, and a certain industry has gone very far in making human like skin and outward features. I dont think these things have been mashed together yet though to make a proper android.

But they have machines that walk around that they can tell "move those white boxes to the yellow area" and they can do it all while navigating an obstical course.

[vagrant sun]

None of that makes them human though

[burnt laurel]

I agree. In general I don't personally consider synths to be human based on how they are presented in the game. They are very fancy toasters lol. I think the railroad is generally just a reckless organization. When dealing with synths the question is easy, is it trying to kill me? Yes or no. If no it lives, if yes it dies.

I think for a lot of people something is human/sentient if they can build a relationship with it. So even Codsworth is sentient.

[rigid bay]

Codsworth isn't sentient, but his AI passes the Turing test, which may be more complicated than my understanding, but my understanding is that it just has to convince a human that it's sentient. It's still programming.

Another fictional series, Sword Art Online (books, plus anime, movies, games based on said books) tries to address this, by calling programmed AIs "top down." Though, I may be getting the two terms confused, by contrast, "bottom up" AIs are AIs that are basically "born" and don't know they're not real. So while they are artificial, they go through life as real people. This is, of course, only within a highly advanced simulation, way too big/powerful to be called a "game," but people can enter it like a virtual world. Of course, it's all science fiction, so they don't have to explain how people playing virtual avatars in the most advanced World of WarCraft (or Fallout 76, if you will) are able to have AI-controlled babies who grow up... and then speed up time dilation so dozens of generations pass. And then you have the most advanced AI in the world. But again, that's another fictional world... scary thing is, in OUR world, AI is catching up FAST... I wouldn't consider any fictional AI off the table within the lifetimes of younger people, if not myself as well.

[vivid briar]

is teh le fusil terribles good with a scope?

[burnt laurel]

Oh, I firmly believe we will see a time in my life time (im 38 today 🎉 ) things walking around that are indisguishinable from humans from like 100 feet away. And most certainly when it comes to not-in-person communications. You simply won't know. And you won't be able to know by any test you could devise.

[delicate silo]

I love codsworth 😅 to bad he’s kinda mid companion

[vivid briar]

my build for the le fusil terribles is advanced reciever, long ported and shield barrel, recoil compensating stock, drum magazine, reflex sight circle and teh compensator is this good or should i make some changes?

[lilac saffron]

my gamle isnt launching. I open the game, the launcher starts but when I click play the game it doesnt lauch

[deft crane]

Should I take power armor or my hazmat suit to find Virgil? Last play through took my power armor and lost every piece

Bro I just took out two deatclaws and a behemoth with the basic shotgun with a few modifications

[weak coyote]

I agree, that they are human clones, if they were machines, they couldn't go against thier programming and want to escape the institute and have some other kind of life.

[lilac saffron]

Yall after completing the BoS main quests should i turn against the BoS with the Minutemen and complete their main quests?

[burnt laurel]

You kinda cant if youve done all of the BOS questline.

I mean I guess you can just go up in the prydwen and open fire on everyone.

The mass fusion quest is where you have to decide.

I cant post it but there is an image out there of all of the questlines and how they relate.

[rigid bay]

It's not the same, but I've been seeing more and more YouTube channels that are entirely AI. Sometimes you can tell, they repeat the same thing over and over. Other times it's pronunciation. They talk very well but there are tells. It might be fine for audiobooks, if you want to listen to a book rather than read it or something, or maybe an article, but to just try to replace human voices and/or deceive people? Not for that at all.

[proud sail]

can someone help

i found a ad on youtube that is like fallout and stole the t51b power armor helmet without giving credit to fallout and bethesda

[deft crane]

No, there’s good rewards after

[deft crane]

Not really sure what you could do, maybe @ Bethesda on social media. Or see if there’s a support option in either this or the other official discord

[pseudo fog]

Even the Railroad considers the gen3 machines. There are several bits showing that synths are different from humans.

1. Fallout 3, which introduced synths (or ''androids'') has them called robots. The Game Guide state they require neither food nor sleep.
2. Zimmer states they have been programmed to behave like humans to blend in - including breathing and eating/digesting food. Zimmer is also the first to establish that it is a synth's hyper advanced AI that causes them to malfunction.
3. Pinkerton states how there are things inside synths that he'd ''only heard about'', and also states how synths are machines.
4. A loading screen states how the ones seeking ''freedom'' are malfunctioning units as a result of their self aware AI convincing them they are alive.
5. Max Loken states how synths require neither food nor sleep in order to function.
6. Alan Binet's terminal entry about Fancy Lad Snack Cakes states how synths are incapable of getting fat.
7. Janet Thompson states in conversation how synth Shaun will be a child forever -no growth nor aging.
8. DiMA states how with the Institute's destruction there will be no more synths, showing they are infertile.
9. In the Synth Prototype terminal entry in the Institute, it is stated that the personality of a synth comes from a personality matrix.
10. In the Maintenance Requests terminal entry in the Institute, it is stated that Eve suffered from a looping issue in speech routines, which was patched.
11. Doctor Amari states how a synth brain is not a human brain.
12. Shaun states how his child-synth has given the Institute valuable insights into synth hard- and software.
13. Desdemona states how the gen3 synths are Synthetich machines designed to look, feel and sound human.
14. We see a gen3 Synth being turned offline by uttering a phrase if we aid Z2-47 in finding K1-98, and we also see this if we aid Institute at Libertalia.
15. We can see a Z2-47 being terminated by uttering a phrase if we know his specific code.

[inland nymph]

They have built in VATS apparently

[pseudo fog]

I seem to recall that, unsure where it's stated tho.

[inland nymph]

Me either, I just remember it from a post theory about the Sole Survivor being a Synth

[lilac saffron]

hi i was wondering if anyone new about a black sky bug and how to fix it?

[pseudo fog]

Do you play with mods?

[lilac saffron]

no

[pseudo fog]

Heard that one before. Though I don't believe the Sole Survivor is a synth

[pseudo fog]

Hmm. Can't think of anything else.

[lilac saffron]

i mean my dad has some on his account and we share the game but i dont play the game with mods

[inland nymph]

If you’ve played far harbour you’d think a little differently

[pseudo fog]

I have played Far Harbor.

[pseudo fog]

But it's just that I find Shaun's narrative of "let's see how my dad/mom will react if I set him/her free" kind of odd if he replaced us with a synth.

[inland nymph]

He did say that it had been 60 or 80 years (I forgot) theres no saying he said that due to the real Nate/Nora dying

[pseudo fog]

You can try asking in #1087805680829857822, or maybe on Reddit

[lilac saffron]

ok thanks for the help

[pseudo fog]

Gl bud!

[pseudo fog]

But then still, what is the point in replacing us with a synth? What's the value?

Also, I somewhat doubt Shaun would make a synth the leader of the Institute

[inland nymph]

No one would suspect us of being a Synth (Besides some crazies)

[lilac saffron]

it says im not allowed to sed messages in there

[burnt laurel]

Yeah, that makes the railroad even more questionable in its actions. Because their actions does result in harm for people. You could argue they are trying to fight synth infiltrators, but they really arent.

[pseudo fog]

Might be a time-based thing

[lilac saffron]

yh ive got it now thx

[hasty rapids]

anyone wanna know the frank horrigan build

if u wanna know its

How much do i gotta do to fight the institute

[weak coyote]

Many, many, many, quests.

[delicate silo]

What is the quickest (vanilla) way to beat fallout 4🤔

[prisma osprey]

I just downloaded GOTY version an I can’t make it past the salesman in the beginning of the game. The Game keeps freezing on me . I can play 76 with NO issues. Any suggestions? I’m on PC

I’m using medium settings

I will have to do that when I get back home, just left will try again when I get back

There nothing saved I just started New Game

👍

[weak coyote]

Every faction path is about the same amount of questing time.

[delicate silo]

Ah ok I felt like the institute end felt shorter but makes sense there bout the same

[lilac saffron]

hey is anybody here able to help me start the Automatron dlc for fallout 4? I've tried literally everything. uninstalling and reinstalling, disabling mods, disabling mods AND uninstalling and reinstalling, going to the location where it begins, nothing works. will somebosy PLEASE help me!!

[serene arch]

The quest should give you a radio message at lvl 15

[lilac saffron]

yeah but I never got it

it doesn't start

[serene arch]

try entering and leaving Wattz Electronics to see if it will trigger the caravan fight out the front

[lilac saffron]

nope, didn't work.. :((

[prisma osprey]

My Game is on My 2nd Hard Drive, All my Steam games on my 2nd HD n Play with No Problem

I Never Play Games on Main Disk, Main HD is Small, 2nd HD is for Games n Movies etc etc

An I can't find how to disable weapon debris in graphics settings

[vagrant sun]

I've heard that before too, never seen any hard evidence but it's just like those wild fan theories that two entirely different IP's are connected because 'fan theory' but they are completely serious and don't understand IP rights and licensing that alone prevent it being plausible.

Besides, every game has V.A.T.S, it's just selective bias. without any actual substantive proof

[serene arch]

Most of that theory was based on the survivor killing radroaches with VATS before getting the pipboy

[vagrant sun]

I'd probably chalk that up as an oversight

[serene arch]

same here

[vagrant sun]

there'd be zero reason to make a synth and place it there just to let it think it's human and searching for it's 'son' and eveyrone elses actions, like kelloggs refer to as a backup, to the needing a non radiated human for their plan

[serene arch]

In survival mode , I need to eat and drink and synths don’t need to do that

[vagrant sun]

Good point, i don't even play on susrivvale so didn't remember or thnk about it.

[lilac saffron]

Very much actually and i've got to keep you away from Arthur Maxson because he will kill you because your a synth danse.

[vagrant sun]

wooooow spoilers!

[lilac saffron]

Sorry 😨

[vagrant sun]

i'm kidding lol. it's almost a 10 year old game

[vagrant sun]

anyone else get weird lighting issues sometimes?

[weak coyote]

Doesn't matter how old a game is...
Remember your first playthrough of any game you ended up loving...
Why would you ruin that experience for someone else.

[vagrant sun]

true for the most part, i just meant after a certain time it becomes unreasonable to expect discussion to be self censored to avoid certain details.

[vagrant sun]

this one random ghoul NPC sounds like marge simpson

[vagrant sun]

So this is actually the first time i'm dealing with settlement claiming and expanding for minutemen tasks... have the settles always been this.... bad? forced to build radio beacons to recruit settlers and they all just... stay exactly where they spawn, 15 metres outside the settlement.

One time i even tried to send one to sanctuary hills and it stayed there, but the Santcuary hills settler count did go up.

[rigid bay]

Pretty much. A few mods try to address it (like Sim Settlements), but the settler AI/pathing has never been good.

It's such a shame, because they had NPC routines done so well in Skyrim. But they could not assign random NPCs to those routines. Nor did they want to, for whatever reason, establish all the settlers in advance and just have you "unlock" them gradually (i.e. your Settler Bob is exactly the same as my Settler Bob, vs them being randomized). The mod Sim Settlements does somewhat address this with named, non-random NPC settlers, but there are only a few of them. And, I think, some of the named settlers that come with settlements (e.g. Blake Abernathy) have routines. But the generic ones? Not so much.

[vagrant sun]

so basically pre-defined NPC's, when you build the radio beacon, every NPC that comes is a static NPC, not random?

[rigid bay]

The settlers that come for the radio beacon are just randomly generated and basically have no AI. They contribute to the stats of the settlement but they don't really do anything.

What I meant was, maybe if the game were designed that way, or if there were a pool of already pre-programmed settlers with daily routines, it could have been better, but they didn't put that much thought into it. They weren't trying to make a SimCity kind of thing.

[vagrant sun]

kinda wonder why they even made this system in the first place then. like it's an interesting concept... but it seems like whoever was in charge just went all out without even playing it to see how well it works. I'm trying to get all my 'talk to preston' missions down to only 1 at a time. but i managed to pick up 3 while trying to complete one >.<

should have just been 10 max, and optional if i want to actually recruit settlers, not mission forced. I'm still trying to clean out my active missions so that the Miscellaneous ones appear without needing to scroll down, ironically to more easily see if i got a 'defend settlement' task due to all this preston aid running

[vagrant sun]

yeah i phrased it poorly, just meant "so basically instead of random, that's how yoou mean, it's always pre-defined in some way and thus works"

no settlement system like this in Starfield, wonder if that means they gave up, or diff team didn't think of it with the outpost system, or decdied to keep it a fallout mechanic, although i'm not really a big fan of it as a whole, it's mainly due to lack of control and mission quietness, i hope they can refine it better in Fallout 5, and maybe i'll like it better

But.... i'm also hoping in fallout 5 they copy what SF does with save files and tag each save with 'auto' or 'manual' with more info presented for each one. i've been reloading multiple times due to these settlement missions and it's hard to tell which were my manual saves now

I blame Rockstar with Grand Theft Auto for my OCD about autosaves and the likes. but i still keep them on as an emergency

[rigid bay]

Heh. I actually was one of the originators of the settlement idea. I've been active in Fallout/Bethesda online communities since Fallout 3, under many different names, and I suggested a Fallout 3 DLC where you could shore up defenses in the cities, train up NPCs and whatnot. My idea would have incorporated existing cities and NPCs and just made them a bit better.

I'm not saying I'm the reason Bethesda put the settlement system in Fallout 4, but I had the idea years before the game came out, and they say they read what we say. So, who knows. I don't care about credit, let alone compensation. I'm just glad to be part of the community and that some of my ideas have come to pass so I can actually play them, being that I do not have the skill to make games, or mods. I've also seen my ideas become mods, where modders have seen what I, and others, want, and worked them into mods everybody can use. And I am only grateful that there are people taking these ideas and running with them — for better, and sometimes for worse.

[vagrant sun]

Same as how i blame fable for how you have to let the end credits finish to continue playing.

[rigid bay]

Starfield isn't really designed around building settlements, and outposts aren't the same thing.

What will be really interesting to see is if the settlement system makes its way to Elder Scrolls 6. Elder Scrolls Online did have some of the Hearthfire building stuff, and vastly improved. So we may see it there before we see it in Fallout 5.

[vagrant sun]

Why do you think you don't have the skill to make games or mods? have you tried?

the SF ship system has me hoping ES6 has Nautical Ships. maybe less about customising them, and more about just so they exist and can actually sail the seas

Even Fallout could bring in vehicles, and have Hot Rod culture as a feature

[rigid bay]

It's a learned skill. I just haven't applied myself. No, I haven't tried. I think anyone can do it if they apply themselves. Making stuff like that isn't really my area of interest. I'm mainly an ideas guy. If I'm on a team, I'm the dreamer who comes up with the ideas. Maybe directing? Unfortunately, while Todd Howard might have that role as well (does he actually write code?), but so does the guy who made the Fable games, and he was known for over-promising. Something I would likely do as well. Peter Molyneux. Took me a minute. Brilliant mind, doesn't understand the limitations of the tech.

[vagrant sun]

I think it's more he was just good at lying 'with purpose' and make it someone elses problem.

Even Sean Murray of No Man's Sky, i think he just had pathological issues, would say 'yes' to every question if it sounded like 'yes' was what people wanted to hear, or 'no' if that's what they wanted to hear'

Rocky start but to give them credit, they bounced back. Unlike Anthem with AAA funding

Also... in the next fallout, or really any BGS game with building... i really wish there was a grid system to specifically place items with more exact precision.

Going mental trying to build this structure in Sanctuary Hills with Vault-Tec structures

basically 3 layers of 5x5 vault rooms, Atrium, then common, then quarters, although the atrium is not 100% 5x5, 2 chunks out of the back corner due to terrain. decided to make a direct stair way from quarters down to outside but it's floating just above ground, can't think of a way to make it work though now.

[deft crane]

Is Ingrid Suvenstein from the nuka world dlc proctor Ingrid?

[vagrant sun]

dunno... can she walk without power armour?

[deft crane]

It’s not a character we see

It’s a repair tech mentioned in data terminals

[vagrant sun]

oh... like in the past, or recently done stuff... if anything you read makes it sound recent, doubtful, since she's BoS and i assume we can kill her along with the BoS which would then make that impossible

[urban sail]

She's called proctor Ingram, not Ingrid

[vagrant sun]

i'm confused by this wiki, so if i set up a supply line, i get that the NPC is flagged essential and can't die by other NPC's but they can still be downed? then another line mentions finding where they are to rescue them to re-establish the supply line, so can supply lines actually be interrupted if a runner is downed?

[lilac saffron]

I pretty much building a Brotherhood of Steel character. but i must do somethings for the railroad, the minutemen and everywhere else like that settlement that's built from a Monument.

it's just like the 12 Labours of Hercules

[prisma osprey]

If I stole something at Diamond City, How Long b4 I can go back there an they NOT attack me?

[weak coyote]

No, she was alive pre war, and it's a different name.

[weak coyote]

Downed means they sit, until combat is over, they get up... Being rescued probably means using a stim on them, or intervening in the fight to end combat state. .. But they are essential and will get up eventually and continue thier daily routine.
It's like when a companion goes down in combat.

[weak coyote]

I remember this discussion, was there back when.
Most likely there will be settlement building of some sort in the next game, they usually add systems from the current game and put them in the next game with some improvement.

Hearth fire-FO4 settlements-starfield outposts- "next game"
The mechanics evolve.

[mint iron]

Yo ehat are good perks to get

[vagrant sun]

I figured but does it affect the supply line line at all while they are downed?

Like if I'm sharing resources between 2 settlements does the sharing break while they are down?

[mystic lion]

Yes.

[weak coyote]

Doesn't matter, it's only an issue if your in the same cell.
They don't exist outside of the cell your currently in.

[vagrant sun]

So, if i'm in a cell and they are down, when i leave before they get up it won't matter?

[weak coyote]

No

[weak coyote]

Obviously one's that compliment your build.
But like universal ones to get...
Armorer, gunsmith, etc...
There are perks useful for any build.

[mint iron]

Dam I don't even know ehat build in going 😭

[pseudo ether]

Question, how am I supposed to take settlement objects (e.g. a recruitment tower) and move it in another settlement?
I have supply lines, that didn't help.
There's 4 recruitment towers "in storage" when i'm in Sanctuary.
When i go to Graygarden > X > Can't access it.

[weak coyote]

Choose a weapon and playstyle.
Like silenced sniper rifle stealth with a pistol as back up/close range.
Stealthy build.

[vagrant sun]

figure out which gun type you'll prefer and definitely max that out if you play on harder difficulties

[pseudo ether]

and I can't fetch the actual Recruitment Tower and place it in my inventory either

[weak coyote]

You can only use built objects at the settlement it was built at, even if you store it.
You can send settlers that show up at a settlement with a beacon to another settlement , just go in workshop mode, use the appropriate button on the settler to send them elsewhere.
If you want to build a beacon at another settlement, take the resources with you, or connect them with a supply line to share resources.

[vagrant sun]

probably stored structures are isolated to the workshop they were stored in. only actual junk items/resources are shared, not the memory of stored build items

[pseudo ether]

ig red rocket station could use 20 turrets

jokes aside that mechanic is infuriating

[vagrant sun]

i don't think it's on purpose, might have been causing too much trouble to include

[mint iron]

Ah ok

[mint iron]

Yo where should I store my stuff I don't want to lose it

[weak coyote]

Either in a settlement workbench, or a crafted chest behind a powered door built at a settlement.
Or at the diamond city house.

[vagrant sun]

why a powered door

[weak coyote]

Npc's can't operate switches connected to a door, so your weapons and power armor won't be used against you and lost.

[vagrant sun]

https://tenor.com/view/mother-of-god-gif-10218431

Wait, so they can loot my safe i placed right beside the workshop in sanctuary hills??

[weak coyote]

Yes

[vagrant sun]

that's messed up, why would they even need to access my chests

[weak coyote]

Put ammo and fusion cores behind a powered door.
If a settlement is attacked while your there, npc's will grab weapons if there is available ammo, and will jump into power armor with fusion cores

[mint iron]

What happens if I put it in sum random tool box

[vagrant sun]

oh damn

[weak coyote]

Not all storage is safe, some respawn and you lose anything you placed inside it

[mint iron]

,ah ok thanks

[vagrant sun]

damn, even on the wiki right now about the magazines, and apparently can miss at least 1 if institute is destroyed

[weak coyote]

Store stuff at an owned settlement, most containers are safe... Some desks and such respawn with junk in them, so best to store in a crafted chest or the red settlement workshop bench and any workbench that's connected in that same settlement.

[vagrant sun]

wonder how many others i could risk losing access if i miss it the first time

[weak coyote]

Only the one in the institute and any where the institute was as far as I remember, like that raider boat under the bridge.

[vagrant sun]

wait what about the raider boat? D:

[weak coyote]

There is a magazine on it

[quasi moon]

does anyone know where to find proctor ingrid?

[weak coyote]

Either on the prydwen or down below at the airport near the robot or the relay, depends where you are in the bos storyline, at one point she is in the prydwen flight control room

[vagrant sun]

ooooo awesome gun in far harbor but i prob can't get

[vagrant sun]

ugh, all the powered doors are ugly lol

darn, even the elevator is too ugly for my vault-tec houses

[mint iron]

If I store my stiff at sanctuary workshop will it be fine?

[lilac saffron]

I got the Herdman's Bell display rack basic LET'S GO!!!

[vapid cliff]

I think im a synth

I dont think tho

[vagrant sun]

The only good synth is a dead synth, and since they're not human, they aren't alive 🙂

[weak coyote]

You can snap walls to it
Like put the elevator inside concrete walls or vault walls

[weak coyote]

Yes, red settlement workshop benches are safe storage

[vagrant sun]

for some reason bethesda decided to can't directly snap vault-tec and non-vault-tec stuff together, but the carraiage and frame is still ugly. there's a lame light bulb and shoddy wood plank for a floor and lots of rust

[weak coyote]

Who cares, are you going to stand there looking at it... It's functional and can be hidden inside structures

[vagrant sun]

I care, it's too ugly
It's a moot point anyway, it doesn't snap into vault tec objects

[weak coyote]

If I remember right, you can snap other floor pieces to vault floor pieces, remove the other than vault floor, replace them with vault flooring, then snap vault walls.
Haven't built a vault in awhile, but I have used the elevator with vault structures.

[rigid bay]

You could do like norespawns does and just learn to build in CK. This gives you a few benefits. One, no build restrictions. Two, static placements that can’t be moved in the game. Three, you’re basically making a mod you can reuse in other plays through, or share with others.

[vagrant sun]

is that at me?

Also i'm confused... are you suggesting one can just boot up CK in unison with the game just to do that and then return to game? o.0

Think it'd give X/Y/Z co ordinate placing ability? I'm mental and even trying to get things placed to perfect 90 degree angles gets to me.

Also, i love how random and absurd Deacon is. I finally started making shops in settlements... he asks the bar guy for a discount and the interaction is amusing

[devout hill]

Yo I got the fallout 4 goty disc and for some reason I can't instal the dlcs

[placid gull]

How to make minigun that shoots baseballs

[vagrant sun]

different weapon, isn't it?

[rigid bay]

Yes, it was at you... and no, you can't edit in real time.

What I mean is, you can use CK (if you're on PC, that is) to make mods, it has way better control than inside the game. The guy I referred to, norespawns, is a YouTuber who used to (still does IIRC) do builds in 4/76, and has since gone on to use the CK to share his builds with everyone. Mostly he just walls off settlements though, but if you like that look, he does good work.

But yes, in the CK, you can actually place anything where you damn well please. In fact, a lot of what is placed in the game is placed "illegally." A good example is the low shelves in Skyrim dungeons were just taller bookcases, pushed down so only the top shows. If you were to use tcl (toggle clipping), you could go under the map and see the rest of it. Bethesda do that a lot. Make a model that can be used in whole or in part. A lot of Fallout 4's trash heaps and leaf piles are bigger than what you see, and they only push it partially up through the ground to cover what they need to. In fact, the CK has a bunch of placeable bits and bobs that you can use to cover up little mistakes, and that's exactly what Bethesda uses those for throughout the game (which is why "scrap everything" mods can be dangerous, you can scrap something and put a hole in the ground you could fall through).

So yeah, for your whole idea of building Vault stuff and it "not working" or, I think you said you tried to place a part but ran into some terrain? You'd be able to move (or delete) the terrain, and anything that didn't snap, you could just place. Also, you'd not only have access to the building pieces you can use in the game, but the building pieces they used to make the other vaults but maybe didn't give us access to (can't think of any examples but I'm sure there are loads).

[vagrant sun]

Aye, i've noticed several objects that are recycled assets and figured they're just being pushed through terrain. I'm aware most maps are usually technically floating on sky if you clipped under them and from the wrong side and see through it in most cases.

Wait, he did builds in 76? with CK? i didn't think that was possible for an online game

[round rampart]

Playing completely unmodded as slowly getting achievements, it is very annoying having to scrap weapons constantly so I can build more

[vagrant sun]

i just got the perk 'Strong Back' at 6 str which lets you fast travel while overloaded and still move at a decent speed at cost of AP and at max rank reduces AP cost by 50% and just loot everything i kill and sell it to vendors for junk and supplies

[rigid bay]

My bad. No, he did builds in CK in Fallout 4. He did builds in-game in 4 and 76 (Camps, not Settlements).

[vagrant sun]

currently trying to find a place to set up as my bot base for supply runners, i was gonna pick Hangman's alleyway but it's tiny and the brahmin keeps getting stuck in the door, and apparently it can cause issues in future

[west trout]

Greetings. I am building the Back to the future townsquare to share on nexus. I built it once on xbox, but now I am on pc. Can blueprints be shared and load properly even if I have to go just slightly out of borders?

[round rampart]

Oh yeah I’m fairly deep, level 58 at the minute, already hoarding large pipe weapons! 😏

[vagrant sun]

livin the.... pipe dream.

[round rampart]

Heck yeah!

[vagrant sun]

i really need to figure out how i wanna do this supply network though.. i don't like the brahmin, wish it was just an invisible feature that didn't have the NPC still in the world

although... apparently there's a huge island settelement... hopefully anyth supply runners i create from there will be stuck on the island lol

[deft crane]

So, I have a glitched Preston Garvey, already talked about this, but tldr he’s stuck on the “well, the institutes gone, glad about that” dialogue because I forgot to issue the evac order while doing the BOS questline. If I do Nuka world, can Preston even be mad at me? 99% of the dialogue I get from him is the institute line, I don’t even get settlement stuff from him most of the time. Unless it breaks the dialogue loop I should be okay to proceed into the commonwealth raid without being attacked by the MM, correct?

I’ll do open season after getting everything though

[prisma osprey]

Does anyone know How to stop Fallout 4 from minimizing when clicking on another monitor?

[urban sail]

Run it in borderless windowed mode instead of fullscreen. You should be able to change that setting in the launcher

There are mods to change the brahmin to people or dogs, etc...

sooo bethesda... when you gonna make fallout 4 also have 100 gb of mod storage?

youve proven that to be an option, so hey why not do it

[blazing pike]

It’s not going to.

[vagrant sun]

Vastly different engine versions.

Starfield is made on Creation Engine 2

[lilac saffron]

hmmmmmmmmmm remaster time

im joking

[deft crane]

Is there any benefit from Preston not being mad at me after doing nuka world lol. I wasn’t ever able to have him as a companion

[ionic lichen]

No just side with one person or the other don’t really matter which one

It just determines whether you want to be a member of the minute men or a raider

[deft crane]

After I do nuka world and do open season does he return to normal?

[ionic lichen]

Not sure don’t really remember

[deft crane]

Normal for me is different than the normal normal. I had him glitched for a long time with dialogue

[ionic lichen]

I’ve never heard of this before I didn’t have this problem

The player character must become an enemy of the Nuka-World raiders, and doing so returns Preston's dialogue back to normal.

[deft crane]

Alright good. I don’t like this commonwealth thing tbh

Might do open season now

Any tips for it?

[weak coyote]

Bring heavily armed help... Like an automatron.

[deft crane]

I brought mcready idk how to spell his name

Lost every piece of my enclave VI power armor lol. Used the bat you get from safari adventures quest. Does like 220 or so damage

[rigid bay]

MrMattyPlays asked Todd Howard about this. He said something like "we'd have to delete everyone's mods." Matty left it alone. I would have said that's fine, I'll re-download them... there's gotta be some other reason holding them back

Also, Bethesda doesn't like to back-port features. Elder Scrolls Online vastly improved house building/decoration, but none of those features were back-ported to Skyrim. Todd Howard's position is that he likes the games, as shipped, in that state as closely as possible, to be playable on all future platforms. Thus, there's a "charm" to OG Hearthfire that he doesn't want to take away from just because they made something better in another game.

[rigid bay]

Not really. And you unlock Preston as a companion after taking over The Castle, or at least that's supposed to be how it goes.

If you do Nuka-World for the raiders, Preston will be mad at you. The solution here must be planned early game. After rescuing Preston and co. from the Concord raiders, simply never talk to Preston again. He and his friends will stay inside the Museum. Continue the game as normal. (Bonus: Complete the objectives for "Sanctuary" to quickly "beat" it when Sturges gives it to you — keep talking to him to get and turn in the objectives.) Do Nuka-World for the raiders, but betray them in the end. Do the Commonwealth raids, get all the achievements, then do Open Season. THEN go talk to Preston. He'll say he's mad at you for siding with the raiders, but since you've also killed them, he will forgive you — but if, and ONLY if you have killed the raider gangs' leaders before taking Preston to Sanctuary

[deft crane]

Preston was glitched for me. Had him stuck on some dialogue

[deft crane]

Now that I’ve killed the raiders he still won’t forgive me?

[weak coyote]

Gotta clear settlements of raiders

[nocturne bolt]

No idea if this has been answered or not, but does anyone know if there's gonna be a future update to fix the new lagging issue?

[weak coyote]

Not specifically the lagging, it's been that way for years and never fully patched.
But expect at least one more update to fix things broken with the next Gen update

[hearty bobcat]

Fallout 4 was working great before the next generation patch on series x, except for Boston of course, even with mods. Now, Boston is better but everything else is worse. I hope they patch this soon.

Where is the Best Place to Set up Camp/Base

[thick burrow]

I can complete Underground/undercover (and therefore Mass Fusion, Pinned, and Powering Up) and still do the MM ending?

Also can you get PS5 trophies after finishing the storyline or do they have to be collected before ending it?

[weak coyote]

For survival.
Hangmans alley
It's central and near vendors and a doctor
Two farms are nearby, for water, food, adhesive.

[weak coyote]

Anytime.
Accept for quest specific trophies, they require a new playthrough, or a save reload.

[thick burrow]

Thanks!

[vagrant sun]

Omg.... that's just an awful routine to not lose a faction/companion over a dlc.

So if i already took preston to sanctuary and did minutemen stuff. If i do Nuka world dlc it'll always have issues now? Do i miss anything unique if i stay with minutemen like loot or collectibles?

[prisma osprey]

Can we A F K in FO4?

[serene arch]

Fallout 4 is all about losing factions

[prisma osprey]

If I clamed it for the Minutemen Already Can I still use it as my Camp/Base too?

[weak coyote]

Once you own a settlement, you can do what you want with it, the minutemen don't claim it, you do.

[lilac saffron]

we are the commonwealth land developers

[weak coyote]

On second thought... The minutemen do claim it, since the player character is the general of the minutemen.

[grand wharf]

Why is this game so much better than Starfield. I love both but when you play hours of Starfield then go to Fallout 4….bro

[serene arch]

Fallout 4 has more dlc/content , and cats

[proven elm]

"Better" is entirely subjective. My wife has put several hundred hours into Starfield and absolutely loves it. It's her favorite BGS game since Morrowind. But she can't stand Fallout 4.

[grand wharf]

It’s the cats

@vivid briar do what i do and take a save before one of these points and see if you like the outcome

[weak coyote]

Better yet,roleplay,make a choice and live with it.

Then do things differently in the next playthrough, to experience something new.

[vagrant sun]

Doesn't the wiki alone have a faction list?

[rigid bay]

If you've invaded the Commonwealth after leading him to Sanctuary, no, he won't.

[rigid bay]

The game is based around you being good. Nuka-World was largely a response to people wanting an evil option, and it comes with consequences.

The line Preston draws is, you can do raider stuff with the raiders in Nuka-World, but if you bring them to the Commonwealth, it's over for you and him.

The moment Gage has you speak to the guy (I forget his name) about raiding the Commonwealth, is your point of no return. At this point it's advisable to make a hard save and finish out Nuka-World, if you want the achievements, and then go back to that point, complete Open Season, and stay in Preston's good graces.

Alternatively, at that point, you could set aside the Nuka-World stuff, go back to the Commonwealth, and advance your relationship with Preston far enough to get his perk (which is decent), and then place him at a settlement you have no intention of returning to (such as Murkwater, nobody likes that one), then go back to Nuka-World and do bad stuff. Preston will still be mad, but you'll never have to deal with him, and you keep his perk.

Also IIRC you don't lose the Minutemen. You're still the general. You outrank him. He personally will not forgive you, but the Minutemen are your faction, not his.

I'm not sure what happens if you haven't been named general of the Minutemen, and you drive Preston away. Will he still make you general? I don't know. It's my understanding that the Minutemen are the "default" faction and cannot be lost to the player.

[barren rose]

im about to try nuka world for the first time im probably gonna destroy all factions there unless i like one specifically and they give good rewards, that's basically what i did to far harbor no factions we're that intersting and i gave the island back to the nature destroying everyone if i do that in nuka world too will it have conseguences in the main world too? exspect possibily preston

[mystic lion]

Nah, killing off the raiders isn't reflected in the Commonwealth proper.

[barren rose]

yeah good range, aoe instant reload common ammo while having pretty good dmg, only downside is you can damage yourself. if you want something op just get a bleeding combat shotgun it melts anything the effect stacks

[barren rose]

alr ty

[mystic lion]

The only interesting one (to me anyway) is the Operators, but it's all or nothing on purging the park.

[barren rose]

kk this server seems pretty dead for having all these members tho?

[mystic lion]

Lots of different channels with a lot of different conversations. Also in my experience most people seem to only have something to say if it's something negative.

[rigid bay]

Fallout 4 came out in 2015, so this channel is pretty calm. The Starfield chat is a little more lively, at times. Maybe 76, but I don't go there (I don't play it). They seem to highlight 76 stuff a lot, though, so they gotta be catering to somebody

the crops arent harvested tho. i can harvest them myself, but if i dont they just stay there.

[serene arch]

Doesn’t matter, if you have x amount of settlers, and you have x+c amount of food, then c will get stored in workshop every day

[torpid marsh]

alright, i cleared out the workshop. I'll check later.

[urban sail]

He never shows up in the companion tracker. Sometimes sending companions to a settlement doesn't work, they just return to their default location. Check if he's at Sanctuary.

Thank you, clearing the workshop fixed the issue

Spray ‘n’ Pray with upgraded explosives perks, and the bobblehead found in Saugus Ironworks

Explosive splash damage multiplies damage across any “body part” caught within the AoE, making it the most effective weapon unless something has high explosive resistance

Explosive combat shotgun would be better in theory but there are no guaranteed drops. You could either use mods to craft legendary effects or you could get really lucky. Still, only 12 rounds in the shotgun vs 100 in SnP makes it a hard sell, especially for the added effort. But cool if you have both!

Can anyone please tell me why i dont have the quest to Blow up the nucleous? I have the Key, have made far Harbor fall and destroyed arcadia with the Brotherhood (sided with the children of atom), yet the main children of atom npc has no unique dilogue about the nukes for me, anyone knows if im missing something or destroyed arcadia too early? In that Chase Is there anything i can do to fix this instead of becoming an enemy and randomly blowing It up... I have been at this for hours

The only thing i can think of Is because i haven't confronted dima about the the nukes and destroyed far Harbor before that so i Just cant do the quest?

[weak coyote]

Because you destroyed the others, the quest is considered complete?

Or the not talked to dima about it.

[barren rose]

i dont know, i dont have the quest to clear the Island either sinice if i nuke It by myself i get no quest completion or anything

[weak coyote]

Go inside the sub and try activate

[barren rose]

what sub

Oh the nucleos yeah that if i do It no quests gets completed i dont have the cleasming the Island quest for some reason? Nor can i talk to the main son of atom npc about the nuke

The thing Is again i killed dima After he wouldn't talk to me because i destroyed far Harbor, killed arcadia with the Brother Hood and i dont have a cleasming the Island quest or neither a new option for the sons of the atom leader and if i Blow the nucleus up nothing happens, i have done all quests too so i was wondering if anyone here knows how to fix this

[weak coyote]

You seem to have locked yourself out of the quest by not talking to dima first.

[barren rose]

Sad ima wait for more pepole to reply/ask others if there's a fix

[weak coyote]

There is no fix, the quest giver is dead.

I realized today that Diamond city entrance inside the large door that opens on the ceiling makes it look like the bleachers where people would sit is just above the ceiling but if you allign the main diamond city stands up with that entrance location with the stairs that goes into the stands it doesn't even come close.. so there shouldn't be stand like ceilings in that spot should of been a flat roof lol

in order for it to come close you would have to raise the ceiling a floor or two up

Hello everyone, just had a question on Fallout 4... Is anyone else having an issue at the Main Menu. I can not get passed the "Three Cheers" message... I have no cursor, enter does nothing. I've hit all keys on my keyboard to no avail... Anyone know a fix??? I'm having this issue/bug on Steam and Epic... I bought a copy off Epic today thinking it was just steam but that wasn't the case... Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[urban sail]

Do you have a controller connected to your PC

[barren rose]

oh, sad ima have to Blow It up in the future without getting anything then

thats a game design issue tho not being able to talk to dima because i destroyed far Harbor before getting the Quest Is a big l

[barren rose]

i dont know

[deft crane]

I wish instead of being able to tell the BOS about a refuge of people trying to find their way in life we could tell them about a giant pre war fortress filled to the brim with robots and other tech being guarded by hundreds of raiders

[fluid sky]

Yes I do have a controller connected.... that must be it, I feel dumb lmfao

[fluid sky]

Yup... That was the issue.... Thank you very much lol, so simple I over looked it, I feel so dumb hahahaha thank you again

[snow hare]

Folks, having an issue here and so far have not found any threads on this so please forgive me if someone has already covered this..
On the Echos of the past mission, every time I kill the Colonel the terminal code shows available at the sanctuary instead of on his body. I’ve tried all the things that’s been posted about not using explosive weapons and not having a companion present etc. no matter what I do upon his death the password holotape goes to sanctuary. Now, here’s the kicker. I can go to sanctuary via fast travel and using the workshop mechanics, pick it up and then retrieve it from the workshop inventory and the quest will update. However, you cannot travel back to the Atlantic offices and load the passcode into the terminal because you are locked out. What am I missing here. Also, I’ve tried this from the same save point about 24 times now.

[urban sail]

Haha it's also happened to me before, that's how I knew lol

[slender gulch]

Anyone here use mods? If so what are your favorites?

[serene arch]

silent crew when piloting ship

Overlapping dialogue while talking to another ship is so janky

and that should have been in Starfield channel

I like radio station mods in Fallout

[slender gulch]

Same

Radios and Compainions like Ellen I love to download and guns too. Those i excessively download

[serene arch]

I use survival quicksave and fast travel mods

[vapid cliff]

i got to sentinal in bos how do i progress?

[prisma osprey]

How do I Unlock Local Leader 2?

[urban sail]

You need to be level 14. And have rank 1, obviously.

[prisma osprey]

I'm lvl 24 Currently

i found it nevermind

[lilac saffron]

you know, i wish fallout 4 would add the Hunting Revolver from New Vegas cause i want to have my own Ranger Sequoia in Fallout 4

[round kernel]

Is anyone knew when is the next bugfix update for Fallout 4 ?

[midnight shale]

last night someone defended microdlc in starfield a singleplayer game...

[mint iron]

How do i get mods

[weak coyote]

Find them on other weapons, swap them onto another gun.
Craft them yourself.

[mint iron]

Which pipe weapon is the best and what mods should I put

[marsh torrent]

You'll most likely use pipe weapons for the very early game, so no need to go bananas on mods tbqh

[mint iron]

Ok cuz I'm like level 11 looking for nick valentine and I'm getting cooked up my the minute men I'm like weak and they do so much damage

[marsh torrent]

depending on which weapon type you'll use (either pistols or rifles), i'd start looking for a random either 10mm pistol or combat rifle on raiders you kill

[mint iron]

Yo what should I level with my points

[deft crane]

After I complete the quest is there any downside to wiping out Acadia?

I hope not because my save from before I did it got overwritten

[weak coyote]

Semi/automatic 38 rifle
45 pistol
308 sniper
Then the modifications depend on what your build is, what perks you choose.
Silencers, semi auto or automatic, scopes, recoil or scoped stocks, etc...

With the right combination of perks and weapon mods, pipe guns can be powerful, and ammo is easy/cheap to find/buy

But I play survival modded to be harder, so my best weapon is probably different than yours.

[mint iron]

I have. A 45 sniper is that good and 308 hunting rifle

Also should I kill swan it's gonna take alot of ammo do idk if it's worth

Also idk what build I should do I think I messed up my stats or wtv

[restive crater]

Nope, hopefully it comes before shattered space

[weak coyote]

Nothing wrong with starting over, since now you have an idea how things work.

[mint iron]

I still don't have an idea😭😭😭

And I don't really wanna restart amd do everything again

What does survival mode do

[serene arch]

More legendary enemies show up in survival too

hunger and thirst and fatigue to deal with

[mint iron]

Ngl this does not seem more entertaining 🙏🙏🙏

Plus I don't understand the game enough for that

[serene arch]

I wouldn’t tackle survival mode on a first playthough

[mint iron]

Why would you think that😭😭😭 I've had the game for a long time I've played it before bit never beat it I just don't understand what weapons are good weapon mods perks and things of that nature

[serene arch]

I would max rifle, better criticals ,critical banker and bloody mess perks. Good rifles are Righteous Authority(from Danse) and Overseers Guardian(buy from Vault 81)

max Gun Nut perk so you can get the good mods

[onyx island]

So when the update happened it got rid of all my dlcs and I have it on disc someone siad they just deleted it and reinstalled it and the DLCs were back (I have the game of the year edition)

[mint iron]

But I wanna use other weapons

Also do I level base stats

[weak coyote]

You have to re-downloaded the dlcs

[weak coyote]

Yes, if you want to make your character better... And to get access to perks, they have stats and level requirements.

[weak coyote]

If you enjoy these games, you will end up replaying many times, it's just kinda how Bethesda games are for people.
Once you understand how things work, it's worth it to start a new character, it'll be more fun having a better understanding and a build to stick with.

These type games are meant for multiple playthroughs, it's not boring if you enjoy them... The point is to try different builds,weapons and tactics, to make different choices to experience it in a different way.

[mint iron]

And I should level based of how my builds gonna go?

[mint iron]

Yea I get that but I still don't understand and I just rather do another playthrough after I beat this one and have alot better understanding

[onyx island]

Can’t

[violet ice]

anyone playing 76 rn?

[proven elm]

This is the Fallout 4 chat. You'll have better success posting in #fallout-76-chat

[weak coyote]

Why

[weak coyote]

Good plan

[onyx island]

Because the addons doesn’t pop up for me

[weak coyote]

Pop up where?

[onyx island]

In the play station store

[weak coyote]

Select addons

[onyx island]

It’s not there

[weak coyote]

Yes... It is

[onyx island]

Idk if it cus I have the disc version are something

[onyx island]

No it’s not I’ve checked multiple times

[weak coyote]

Dlc isn't on the disk, you have a paper insert that has psn store code

[onyx island]

The game of the year edition it has all of the DLCs

[weak coyote]

Yes... I have the goty, you have to download the dlc with a psn store code

[onyx island]

Well I didn’t have to

It all downloaded with the game

[weak coyote]

Then why isn't it installed now?

[onyx island]

Because when the update happened it got rid of all of them

[weak coyote]

Doubtful, didn't happen to me and have seen no one report this issue anywhere

[onyx island]

Well then I must be the first

[weak coyote]

You have to download the new versions of the dlc, they are on the store

[onyx island]

It won’t let me without having to buy the DLCs again

[violet ice]

didn’t see the 76 chat, sorry. thank you!

[weak coyote]

Then you must not have owned them to begin with

[onyx island]

I did I used to play with them all the time

[weak coyote]

Ps4 or ps5?

[onyx island]

PS4

[weak coyote]

Restore your licenses

[onyx island]

I did it didn’t work

[weak coyote]

Go to your library, find fallout, it will have a little controller with a + does it show a number?

[onyx island]

Idk I’m not on my play station I’m trying to sleep

[weak coyote]

Well the number is the dlc you own.

[onyx island]

Oh that yeah it doesn’t show that

[weak coyote]

Click the game in the library, scroll down to Playstation store, it will also show what addon you own

[weak coyote]

Then you don't own them, you need to find your paper insert with the code... Or buy them

[onyx island]

So I did have them and they took it form me?

[weak coyote]

No

[onyx island]

I bought it new and redeemed the codes and throw them away cus I had no use for them

[weak coyote]

Seems you do now have a use for the codes

[onyx island]

Yeah but I throw them away ages ago

[weak coyote]

You screwed yourself... Sorry

[weak coyote]

Call Sony, they can look at your account and see if you do own them with a code registered to your account.

[restive plank]

Who would win in a fight Adam smasher vs frank horrigan ??

[weak coyote]

V would use the blackwall cyber deck and fry them both

What is the Wasteland Workshop & Contraptions Workshop? I have Done All other DLC's but Nuka World witch I am Just starting Now

[barren rose]

im pretty sure they just add new things that you can build

[weak coyote]

They added buildable objects for your settlement

[prisma osprey]

Oh, Okay

[deft crane]

How should I continue the main storyline if I want to blow up the institute with the MM? I’ve already given the tape to sturges but not I’m not getting any quests

[weak coyote]

Own 8 settlements, talk to Preston

[prisma osprey]

I Know I own alot lol

[regal urchin]

Is not becoming Sentinel for the Brotherhood in the peaceful Minutemen Ending a bug?

[regal urchin]

I'm pretty sure not getting the rank of Sentinel for the Brotherhood in the peaceful Minutemen ending is a glitch.

[prisma osprey]

Does Preston Always have a Quest for you or will they Ever End?

[urban sail]

They don't end. There's always another settlement that needs your help.

[solemn pagoda]

Hm

[solemn pagoda]

How do you get bos as a role

@regal urchin

[regal urchin]

You go to Channel & Roles and choose the faction roles you wish to obtain.

[loud ore]

Hi, does anyone know what the junk dealer does? It appears when I review the vocational overview tab.

[regal urchin]

I wish getting the rank of Sentinel for the BOS in the peaceful Minutemen ending is canon.

[proper whale]

Guys still doing updates? cuz be good to play the game without it crashing

what causes crashing? its probably mods but what kind if anyone knows

[weak coyote]

The terribly flawed engine.

[grand wharf]

War never changes.

[proper whale]

i see..tnx zero

series s and x both use the same engine (i got none but) why do people have trouble running it on series s?

[serene arch]

s and x have different GPU's

[onyx island]

Why is my installation Stuck at 22%

It’s been 2 hours

[weak coyote]

The game engine, not the console

There should have been an option to evacuate, we have that choice elsewhere.

i got a problem im doing a relativly simple challange run of fallout 4 where basically i never get to low health and as an indication i use the tooltip for that to regulary check that i still have never had low health and well i curently at one quest location and in the safe where i enterd the building the low health warning still apeard and i i clear the building i suddenly dont get that anymore even i didnt take any damage during the combat it also disables if i hack a terminal or pick a lock now is that a new glitch ?

(i test that i havent gotten it by saving and trigering it basically the only non modding way to know that i have not been at low health)

[proven elm]

You'll have better success posting in #fallout-4-mods or #1067505929534320700

Which companion is betetr valentine piper or deacon

[keen verge]

You can track companions with the Vault-Tec population management terminal if you have the Vault-Tec workshop DLC

[simple swallow]

sorry if this isnt the right channel for this, but im at my wits end. Is the Pipboy app no longer working in general or is there some super special thing i can do to get the pipboy app to get past the "Scanning for devices" loading screen.

[paper star]

I believe you have to be on the same wifi for one and for two have to have in game settings for it.

[simple swallow]

I did that

[paper star]

You would also have to select platform on the phone I believe too.

[simple swallow]

Under the connection setup yes it asks for pc, ps4 or xboxone. i only have a PC so i select that then it scans for devices infinitely.

[paper star]

Might be a detectability issue for your own pc...

Maybe a setting or something?

[simple swallow]

okay, any idea how to fix or change that? ive tried disabling firewall entirely (also ive gone in to the firewall setting to make sure there wasnt an inbound rule or anything but no everything is allowed on steam and the variaous fallout rules) and it still doesnt work.

[paper star]

I am not fully aware enough for pc side... might be an online thing somewhere on how to do it.

https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/31476 perhaps this?

[simple swallow]

i have tried everything everyone online has posted to try which is why i am here hoping someone might be more insight. but thanks i still appriciate the help. ill keep asking.

[paper star]

Might have to ask support. I am more limited on knowledge for support stuff on pc side.

[simple swallow]

i put a post in the fallout support on this discord. hopefully someone knows more. thanks again! 👍

[weak coyote]

They stop support for the pipboy app a long time ago, you can no longer connect it to your game.

Im having issues with the cabot quest more specifically when i get info on where jack sister is at the game crashes when i try and fast travel there

anything i can do to fix that?

@weak coyote you know?

Should I do Long Time Coming or The Molecular Level 1st?

[solar token]

hello guys

is it possible that there is written what npc and my hero says?

[urban sail]

You mean subtitles? You can enable those in the settings, under display I think

[solar token]

it is possible in polish?>

[urban sail]

Yes, if you have the Polish version of the game it has support for Polish text.

[weak coyote]

No, dima is the quest giver

[weak coyote]

Don't fast travel.

[barren rose]

oh, i did a quick check for on the wiki and it seemed like there we're more ways but i guess not, i couldn't talk to dima anyways and he never gave me the quest

[proper whale]

will that work? or could it be a mod thats doing the crashing maybe a mod to fix it?

[zinc berry]

how do i disable mods?

[barren rose]

You can check witch ones you have installed and disable them from there Just look around the main menu/game menu a bit

[proper whale]

so is not fast travelng the only fix for that cabot quest?

@weak coyote that the only fix?

[hollow grotto]

Does any one know a fix for fallout 4 running at half the framerate, I Have a 75 fps monitor and it runs at 37.5 and when I go into windows settings and turn it to only refresh at 60 fps the game will cap at 30fps, I know its not a performance issue because it only is using 32ish % of my gpu, I've tried a few guides on YouTube and nothing has worked, My pc specs are intel i7 14700k, Radeon rx 5600 xt rog , and 32 gb of gskill ripjaws ddr5

[proper whale]

i dont Xbox one sorry 😦

[shell dove]

does anyone know a command to make paladin danse talk to you/start a convo after minuteman ending?

[weak coyote]

Well if it's crashing every time you fast travel, there is obviously an issue with fast traveling, so don't fast travel, or try fast traveling to a different location outside of the cell that's crashing and walk to where you originally wanted to fast travel to.

[weak coyote]

He didn't give you the option because you went down a different dialog path, so you chose a different solution to far harbor main questline

[proper whale]

hmm..im starting a new save so ill fast travel there off the bat to see if it happens..but really fast travel shouldnt be a issue i got a performance mod no fallout patch though

[weak coyote]

You won't be able to on a new save, you have to discover the location first.

[proper whale]

got the cheat terminal

think thats it?

[weak coyote]

Try just walking to the location, see if it crashes when you get near.

[proper whale]

ill try

[barren rose]

Alr

[proper whale]

ok got it must have a crafting overhaul that was causing the issue idk but its working so must have been a mod

[misty raven]

hey, i have a question, y'all know that when you have multiple character and you pick "load save" on the main menu it tells you like the list of characters? can i do that but with one character? like get into the files and do copies so i can use this same build to do the different faction endings

[weak coyote]

Just make a manual save before a point of no return, before a faction will go hostile

Quite simply its been a long time since I've played & I can't recall if hitting the console (~ key) disables achievements or not.

I'm not planning on using any mods (as im going to try and finish 100 percenting the game) & ideally want to keep the game as stock as possible.

No, there is a named legendary minigun but it's Incendiary, not Never-Ending

is never ending even possable on miniguns cuz i see conflicting data some say yeah some say no

It can drop on gatling lasers so I reckon it can drop on miniguns as well

They mostly disappear after some time.
But if they are in your settlement, sts with living & dead plug in can scrap them

[woven yew]

Noticed the Steam database Page for Fallout 4 hasn't been updated in the past 7 days. Is this nothing or is their a small chance there might be another update soon.

[austere epoch]

It's kind of mind-blowing how absolutely gutless the Fallout 4 engine is. Plenty of games have issues with hitting the memory or processing power limits of their systems. They don't just give up. Perfect Dark on N64 used to slow to like 2 fps. You know what it did not do? Just crash to the N64 startup screen. No, it chugged along at its 2fps until it could stabilize itself. Fallout 4 is the Cheems of engines. Even worse than that. Just completely devoid of any heart, dignity or self respect

Just rolls over and dies at the first sign of adversity. Oh no, one too many settlers in a settlement, guess I'll just CTD. Cowardly

[lilac saffron]

well i got to use an actual colt government series 1911 today, (new gun i got from me granddad now that he is gone and it was left to me in the will)

now ive realized something, you can carry 8 rounds but if they all fair you should be able to just baseball throw that thing at someone and hurt them in a game because god. that thing is a BRICK

[magic current]

correct me if im wrong but can i do a full MM playthrough while keeping the RR alive?

the only ones that want the RR dead are the BOS and the Institute right?

Do I have to progress more in the game? I barely started the main missions but decided to do the BOS storyline

lemme gues haylen wants you to grab tech?

[urban sail]

Yes, you can. If you side with the Minutemen the only faction you need to destroy is the Institute.

[urban sail]

It's a location in Far Harbor, radiant quests can send you there even if you haven't started the DLC yet.

[magic current]

i do wish the game had checks to check if you actually can go there XD

like sure haylen lets take my level 5 survival character to one of the most lethal locations

[spark horizon]

So how would I access that area

[magic current]

to my understanding it starts after the Getting a Clue quest

[urban sail]

You can also start it earlier by finding the Nakano residence in the far northeast of the map

[magic current]

oh? so i could pop out vault 111 and go right there?

[urban sail]

Yeah, probably not a good idea but you could

[spark horizon]

I just built a full base just for me to crash losing it all 😭

[lilac saffron]

Guys is the Le Fusil Terribles worth it to pick up

[serene arch]

can’t beat an explosive combat shotgun, Le Fusils doesn’t compare

[formal mica]

Oh boy can’t wait to mod my fallout 4 on Xbox… wait :[

[sullen prairie]

Anyone else having an issue with the mod page in game only showing around 10 favorited mods? I have over 70 mods favorited but in game only shows around 10. But when i un-favorite a mod, another one magically displays.

[magic current]

yeah sadly thats how it works because even tho bethesda broke a ton of stuff with the next gen update they didnt give us the new GUI that works on skyrim and starfeild

[magic current]

also i recently got done with my male character who first started off in nukaworld so now im gunna conferm this with my female character XD

[austere epoch]

Honestly Bethesda should have to pay you restitutions

[spark horizon]

Reparations are required

[austere epoch]

That's the word I was looking for

Built a hotel on Spectacle Island. It's only 3 floors, but the largest individual building I've built. I'm still so far under the build limit for this place I think I can go all out decorating it

Wondering if I should move Piper here. But I think she's happier in our shack at County Crossing. Easier commute to Publick Occurences too

[mystic lion]

Whole point of building an island paradise is to not leave it, just put up some more radio beacons and she can telecommute.

[turbid spindle]

I don't remember seeing that, plus I am running on xbox one

[weak coyote]

You can go to far harbor and nuka world at level 1,straight from the vault.

[magic current]

yup

[weak coyote]

Save often with Bethesda games, they can crash at any second.

[lilac saffron]

There is a barrel light flicker bug with ‘Hangman’s Alley’. I’ve found other-older threads on this, but would like to give my input. I don’t believe it has to do with mods and this issue seems to be isolated. There are already flaming barrels in Hangman’s Alley (2), this may have something to do with it in the code. If the Fallout 4 Unofficial Patch people, or Bethesda themselves, could address this issue that would be greatly appreciated.

[weak coyote]

They don't fix big bugs that have been there since day one... They won't bother with something this little.

[austere epoch]

Bethesda won't address jack, lol. They won't even bother with very major issues, let alone minor ones

It can be really freaky when Nick is your companion, and you wake up in the dark after sleeping a few hours and he's there looking at you with those yellow synth eyes

[lilac saffron]

I really don’t understand why they won’t. I love their games and the company, as do many others. Addressing simple bugs like this should be a priority. How can no one at the Bethesda office have enough time, or appreciation of the fans, to just take an hour or two to change some lines of codes? It’s frustrating. Feels like they treat us as if we are some bully that picked on them years ago.

[strong yacht]

Lets not assume the reasoning behind why certain issues still need attention

It will be more productive if you report it

As the more reports received for an issue will naturally bring more attention to it

https://beth.games/49Cmw8S

[weak coyote]

Reports do nothing, day one bugs are still there.

For decades they've had the attitude of "good enough, the mod community will fix it"

[lilac saffron]

These have been known issues for YEARS now, and have been reported on many occasions from numerous accounts. It is highly unlikely they have not got the memo yet. Let’s assume you’re right, and they are somehow still oblivious to these issues. Then there needs to be better and more clear communication regarding bug reports and having them addressed through community response and engagement teams.

[strong yacht]

Also something you can share under the suggestions tab. I am not saying you are wrong but its more practical to use the tools you have

[lilac saffron]

Thanks for the tip. I’ll give that a try next time. 👍

I downloaded an auto save mod that saves when I get outta combat.

[weak coyote]

You already have quicksaving

If your not playing survival that is

[austere epoch]

Vanilla survival is unplayable

You have absolutely no recourse if the game just crashes an hour into a mission, and your only way of getting places quickly is Vertibirds, which crash the game more than anything else

It sucks, because the concept is really good

Saving Survival Mode is the most essential mod on the whole darn mods page

I mean I'd argue even with this mod the game is still borderline unplayable on consoles after the next gen patch, but at least you can make progress

It's weird because I played vanilla F4 on a base PS4 like 9 years ago, and it didn't crash that much. They broke something with the update

[serene arch]

I add save and fast travel mods for survival (although I did a vanilla playthough for achievement)

[storm summit]

I figured out, with mods, how to put the Lorenzo's artifact mod onto a minigun and oh boy does it work well

[merry fog]

rig the game

[austere epoch]

I added the Vault 88 soda machine to The Castle, and now all my guards are getting high af talking about colors

[austere epoch]

Also added a couple slot machines, and yeah, we're screwed when The Institute shows up

[magic current]

ok heres a question whats better a maxed out explosive assult rifle OR a never ending hand made rifle maxed out on the auto firing platform

[magic current]

... ok just got my hands on a two shot combat rifle... what are these rolls

[spark horizon]

Is there a way to side with the BoS, MM, and Institute at the end?

[weak coyote]

Explosive weapons cause problems, you'll blow yourself up, down companions, fling loot all over everywhere,etc...
