fallout-4-chat

[weak coyote]

No, the institute and bos are always enemies.
You can three way peace with mm, bos, rr

[magic current]

so explosive weapons are better if ya dont care bout all that?

cuz loot flinging is a non issue for me personally

[weak coyote]

You can also hit npc's you don't intend to make hostile

[magic current]

acceptable casualties + their fault for getting in my way XD (really wish NPCs following you would stay behind the hulking bulky power armour spitting out a small platoon worth of missiles)

[rigid bay]

Practically worthless drop... only because there's a named two-shot combat rifle you can buy (Overseer's Guardian in Vault 81).

Anyway, for pure DPS, the explosive AR is gonna be better. For pure fun... that's up to you.

The thing with explosives, and it's not unique to Bethesda games (Deus Ex did this too, in 2000), is that damage is applied per body part, and explosives can hit multiple body parts, therefore, double, triple, or even quadruple (or more) damage based on the size of the AoE. And the AoE (that is, area of effect) can be increased with perks and the explosives bobblehead. Same with the damage. Add in the high fire rate of the weapon, and you can forget about the damage the bullets do. You aren't landing hits with them. Instead, you're firing at the ground to set off those explosions, which are hitting both legs, the torso, and in the case of Deathclaws, their tail as well.

Explosive ammo is just broken in Fallout 4. But it's fun (and dangerous, since no perk protects you from your own friendly fire).

[lilac saffron]

anywhere where i can post a meme per say

[tardy solstice]

Ey does anyone know of a way that lets me scrap the sanctuary bridge, a clean settlement mod is conflicting with a redone sanctuary but it’s just the bridge clipping. I tried brute force scrapper but it won’t highlight the bridge, on PlayStation so console commands are a no go

Hitting a VATS cam with the Fatman makes it all worth it

[placid gull]

I went from rx 580 to 4070 and now the game just closes itself after 5 minutes anyone knows why?

[fresh elk]

turn off weapon debris in launcher setting

[elder compass]

hi, anyone know of any mods that lets me add wasteland workshop cages in interiors that work after the "next-gen" update?

[full mango]

You'll have better luck in #fallout-4-mods

[elder compass]

oh got u

[gaunt sandal]

is fo4 still popular and worth playing ?

[austere epoch]

So somehow my game file was bugged and the Overseers Guardian didn't have its Two Shot ability. I was pretty livid, because this was back when caps were a major issue

I ended up using a mod that lets you convert technical documents into legendary weapon perks to put Two Shot on a random combat rifle and just called it Custom OG

[proven elm]

My answer is, "Yes!"

[weak coyote]

Who cares what's popular... It's if you enjoy it.

[austere epoch]

With the caveat that it crashes a lot on console right now. Like a lot a lot

Not like "normal somewhat buggy game that was developed for PC" but like "someone should lose their job for allowing it to ship in this state" levels of instability

When it's firing on all cylinders it feels like GOAT level sometimes though

My Vault 88 dwellers are like a bunch of people rolling at a festival, lol.

[summer folio]

hehe..got an email about creations guess which game was left out? lol

[elder compass]

how many settlers u got in ur vault

[austere epoch]

29. It's the soda fountain. And also Clem

[peak furnace]

How do you get ambushed by the enclave? (I willingly want them to im going to be the ambusher)

[austere epoch]

Saugus Ironworks is where they jumped me

It was after I'd already done the quest to save the idiot Finch Farm kid

There's some sort of trailer off to the right if you approach from The Slog. Going into or near the trailer seemed to trigger the ambush

Any way to get rid of an unwanted Brahmin besides... you know. Somehow one of them wandered into Hangman's Alley. It's really no place for a bovine

[weak coyote]

If it's part of the settlement, think you can move them like you would a settler

[weak coyote]

Attacked me at hangmans alley after sleeping 7 hours, after finishing the quest.

[frigid hinge]

I'm not able to find the nuka punch recipe in the place where it's supposed to be. Could anyone help??

[elder compass]

have you ever gotten past that number?

[serene arch]

if you used explosives it may have moved, check surroundings

[mental hatch]

It's my first time playing fo4 , I enjoy playing it so far well if it's your first time and likes fallout I think It'll be fun for you

[tacit canyon]

how do you get power armor displays? it’s been so long. is it mods or are they naturally in game?

[serene arch]

part of the Contraptions workshop dlc

[tacit canyon]

ah crap ok. thanks

[weak coyote]

Most likely clipped into an object or into a wall or something else... Try throwing grenades where it's supposed to be to dislodge it.

Or if you have an auto save before you entered where it is, try reloading to get it to spawn in the right place.

[knotty granite]

My fallout 4 tweaking it says I got 50 settlers at sunshine tidings 😂

Now it says 100 at Abernathy farm 💀 repopulating the commonwealth one settlement at a time

[weak coyote]

There is a bug with the workshop menu, it shows incorrect information sometimes for settlements your not currently at.
Go to your settlement, then look at it.
Go into workshop mode then exit first.

[magic current]

XD i wish i was recording what just happened

so ya know fin in goodneigbour well i shot him and his head stayed floating while his decapitated body did a front flip

his foot kicked his floating head and it went over the fence of good neigbour XD

[serene arch]

Ain’t that a kick in the head

[austere epoch]

Once I accidentally kept the Leadering equipped, and a few settlements with recruiting beacons on got to 35+. Sanctuary and the rest of the triangle of death was an auto-crash. I had to snipe settlers to bring the numbers down

Currently my largest settlement is The Castle with 31, and it's also easily among the most stable. I very rarely get crashes there

On the other hand, Hangman's Alley with 18 settlers is a dice roll every time I visit

Jamaica Plain with 23 is basically non-functional. I suspect it might be a memory sharing issue with Vault 88 though, similar to SH/RR/AF

Still, this is a 9 year old game with a modest graphical update running on way more powerful hardware. I should be able to run a 50 person settlement. Bethesda are incompetent

Wish I could use profanity on this server to truly express my feelings on the matter

[naive cliff]

I half expected Fallout 4 to get the Skyrim Mod Menu treatment.

Because over time, I got used to it, somewhat.

Talking about it due to there being an issue with the mod menu in Fallout 4. None of the older mods are shown installed or favorited. Except for the Unofficial patches.

And there have been times where it kicks me out of the mod menu with "The Operation Could Not Be Completed" error.

[weak coyote]

I been questioning for years, are they incompetent, don't care or they just don't know how to polish thier game, or a lethal combination... Fallout 4 I think is my last Bethesda game, the bugginess is not worth the headache anymore, and the game design is outdated, had no interest for starfield because I figured it would just be more of the same.
I hope they atleast patch FO4 one more time to fix vats and mod menu,but knowing them, another update will just introduce more bugs... Like always.
They need a new engine, not an updated one, a new one.

[magic current]

yeah starfeild was gunna be my last bethesda game but the fact that they somehow made workshop spaces worse in starfeild puts fallout 4 miles above starfeild imo

[stoic ledge]

I was so excited to finally start a new FO4 playthrough on PC with the patch until I started reading about how it broke VATS... I would think they want THE core gameplay component to, you know, actually function. My girlfriend started a run anyway and she has had constant problems with it. We're sad and disappointed after getting hyped by the show.

[woven yew]

I just want to know if they are still gonna release patches for Fallout 4, its been 2 months of radio silence.

[waxen pebble]

Bethesda radio silence is SOP now. It wasn't always this bad.

[waxen pebble]

I would guess Fallout 4. How do you get an email about Creations?

[mystic lion]

Everything they say gets twisted out of and into a dozen different contexts almost instantly as the "creators" of the world rush to be first for clicks, I wouldn't talk either.

[weak coyote]

People speculate when there is no official comment.

[austere epoch]

Still love the game when it's not crashing on me. Like I started running with Curie last night. Did the memory den stuff. I was not expecting her to be so precious

Idk if my character will cheat on Piper, but it's looking highly possible

[austere epoch]

On this particular one I have my thoughts. The original FO4 on PS4 era consoles wasn't exactly Nintendo-level stable, but it ran pretty decently. I think they had a set timeline and budget for the next gen update, but at some point in the process it became apparent there were new issues/conflicts. Maybe involving DLC/CC stuff, maybe particular sections of the base game. Instead of allocating more resources to ironing them out, they got to a point where it was "good enough" and released

The fact is "updated" FO4 has crashed on me at least 10x more than 2015 FO4 ever did, on much weaker hardware. Idk how you explain that

Never even tried Starfield. Releasing that in the same window as Baldur's Gate 3 was highly unfortunate for them

Kinda like Horizon 2 getting destroyed by Elden Ring, lol

[restive crater]

Yes it’s really disappointing

[lilac saffron]

Anyone able to tell me how to get past the chat option with Allie (I think that's her name) where she tells you after u settle into your new role as director that u and her need to talk or something

[amber maple]

So i just took a closer look on what CC stuff i own, and i decided to check the Ultimate Armor Skin bundle.. lo and behold, there is an Army skin for typical armor pieces.

I have owned this pack for as long as I can remember but I've NEVER seen this army skin in-game, and I can't download it as a single in Purchased Content

Anyone else had this? Do I gotta do something to unlock this particular skin?

[lilac saffron]

@austere epoch

[austere epoch]

So I haven't done any Institute stuff yet in this playthrough. I can't remember how that worked last time I did it. Sorry about that

[sour fable]

Hi, I have a problem whit fallout 4 when I put all the dlcs and then go to diamond city or other place there is stretched textures everywhere so the game is not playable

[lilac saffron]

Want to farm honeybeasts? go to the cordinates just Northwest of Emmet Mountain Disposal Site and South of Middle Mountain Pitstop and you can find 3 honeybeasts that'll be really worth it to farm. if you wanted Excess adhesive, Honeycombs and Honey for your recipes, just go Northwest of Emmet Mountain Disposal Site and South of Mountain Summit Pitstop it's worth it.

[weak coyote]

What game are you playing?!

[serene arch]

fallout 4+72

[slender hound]

I think you're lost mah dude @lilac saffron , this is FO4 chat.

[cold narwhal]

I haven't played in a while, is xbox still experiencing VATS issues? Like targeting enemies behind walls, and having the hit chance change continuously?

[cold narwhal]

Nvm just checked with my VATS sniper build, still broken with multiple 95% accuracy shots missed at point blank range

[rigid bay]

Army skin is a Creation Club item. Was often given away for free, along with the other faction skins (Institute, Vault-Tec, Atom Cats, Minutemen, Brotherhood of Steel, may be others).

I own it. It's nice on combat armor. Skins on guns isn't for me

[dawn agate]

guys if i die do i lose items because im slowly losing bits of apparell and i havent been dropping it

[urban sail]

You will return to your last save, so anything you picked up after that will be lost

[opaque jungle]

Has anyone figured out why Automatrons are T Posing with Mr Handy thrusters or Robo Treads on Xbox App for PC?

[fierce totem]

Anyone else having issues with Noir Penthouse? Mine is completely glitched. Walls are gone. Falling through the floors. How do I fix this?

[opaque jungle]

@fierce totem go to that CC item and download it again, it should get updated

[austere epoch]

Can't help you with glitching walls/floors, but I completely lost my Noir Penthouse and Neon Flats stuff from the build menu at random. They used to have categories in the CC section, and those disappeared. I did mess with the load order for some mods like USO and others that add to the build menu; not sure if that's what did it

[amber maple]

Yeah it really looks cool, but the really weird part is i own the ultimate bundle, which includes this skin, and I can for the life of me not find it in the Paint category. The other items in the bundle work just fine.

Sans a few CC items my game is unmodded, series x

[magic current]

anyone know what vertibirds run on? nuke energy right or aare they still diesel

[amber maple]

I would assume fusion cores.. but who can say, propeller propulsion (sounds weird) isn't exactly high end tech. Seems strange to combine the two.

The way fusion cores are handled in F4 and 76 kind of breaks what I assumed to be lore in the past, with Power Armor having everlasting energy etc.

So I guess I'm a bit unsure what to think.

[magic current]

part of me thinks its still diesel because of the BOS sky hooks have some kinda pipe on them

[leaden pelican]

i need some help i have been playing fallout 4 on my xbox for some time now as its my first time playing and i wanted to get it on my pc upon downloading it on pc i have realised my save is not there is it possible to get it back??

[serene arch]

saves aren’t cross platform for Fallout 4

[rugged sable]

Wassabbbbiiii

I just hopped back on this fallout life and I feel like such a noob

[lilac saffron]

I got a question for someone who knows about getting to institute with railroad, can i just rescue valentine and go to fort hagen or do i have to do some other railroad quests first

[urban sail]

You can, if you haven't discovered the Railroad yet you will be sent there during The Molecular Level

[lilac saffron]

Okay thanks

[lilac saffron]

During the quest "Underground Undercover" the part where it tells me to continue working with father, does it mean I do institute quests or?

[urban sail]

Yeah, you just keep working with the Institute to maintain your cover

[lilac saffron]

And eventually the quest gets done

[urban sail]

Yeah, eventually the Institute will ||order you to destroy the Railroad||, and then you can choose sides

[autumn yew]

Doing a survival playthrough (only lvl 52) and picked up a Staggering CR (auto), but just picked up Overseer's Guardian. I don't think I can handle the recoil, so I'm sticking with my staggering... Am I wrong? 😅🤷‍♂️

[craggy summit]

hi guys

[lilac saffron]

BLAAA

[lilac saffron]

You could just modify the overseers guardian for minimum recoil thus sacrificing other thing tho

[rigid bay]

Only if you sold the OG. It's the second best gun in the game. Two Shot is so overpowered, they removed it from future games. In Starfield it's called Skip Shot, which has a chance of firing a second round. (Or it's something like every four shots.) The next best rifle you could get would be Instigating, I think (does double damage to targets with full health, whatever that's called), but you know how if you trip over something, you take a little damage? I suspect a lot of NPCs don't have full health because of stuff like that. Those weird physics bugs can't affect only the player. So, I'd opt for double damage across the board (though, it doesn't quite work out to that) any day.

[austere epoch]

I keep messing around with other weapons and then coming back to my Two Shot CR. I can take down a Behemoth or Legendary Deathclaw without much trouble if I manage distance. Don't really need anything else

If anything the enemies are too easy once you're past the early game. I tried a mod to increase the difficulty, but all it did was make it so that a Glowing Radscorpion would tank 50 shotgun shells to the face. So I'd need to walk around the Glowing Sea with 500 shells. Not really what I'm looking for. There's got to be something better

[quartz sapphire]

Hello I need some help. when ever I look away from someone that is talking to me it goes ridiculously quiet
sometimes i am unable to hear them when my back is to them. i was wondering if there was a way to fix this

[velvet delta]

Have you already submitted a ticket with Support?

[quartz sapphire]

how do i do that?

[velvet delta]

What platform are you on?

[quartz sapphire]

pc

[velvet delta]

There is some troubleshooting listed on this page: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/home/product/695/fallout4cat/8/platform/3/techissuetype/829/perfissues/876

If they don't help you can click to submit a ticket at the bottom of the article

[quartz sapphire]

thank you

[autumn yew]

Since my post I also found a 2shot assault rifle. Kinda digging the 80 round mag. Would you still opt for the OG?

[quartz sapphire]

Won't allow me to submit it for some reason

[velvet delta]

what is the error you are getting?

[quartz sapphire]

It just won't allow me to press submit

[velvet delta]

Try clearing your browser cache, or using a different browser. If that doesn't help, go to the Support home page and try going to the same page manually.

[austere epoch]

I'm pretty sure they're exactly the same thing unless the OG has a higher base damage stat, which I don't think it does

The OG I bought from Vault 81 was somehow bugged and didn't have its legendary effect. I was so mad I ended up using a mod to put Two Shot on a regular combat rifle. It works great

Here's a guilty pleasure: sniper Syringer rifle, plus a Rads 2 Death syringe. It requires a Radscorpion stinger to craft, so you won't ever have very many. I like to use that for assassinations.

[lilac saffron]

Why there is no BoS or Institute version of Open Season

[magic current]

can we embed pics in here?

[sullen prairie]

Going to do a Resident Evil playthrough but need help. Where should the placement be for Commonwealth Of Decay? Top or bottom of LO?

[austere epoch]

When I get out and start dating again I just want to meet someone exactly like Curie. Is that a tall ask?

[magic current]

just go to the rich part of france and hang about the hospitals
actually isnt curie french canadian?

[weak coyote]

Try wasteland strife mod or an incoming /outgoing damage modifier mod.
Make it so everything dies quicker, including the player character.

[weak coyote]

There is basically... There are points in the main story where you have to make this choice.

[magic current]

i think they mean calling in the bos or the institute to come wipe out the raiders in nukaworld i solve this issue by useing FCOM having 36 troops follow me in

[weak coyote]

That's not what open season does

[weak coyote]

https://youtu.be/JPLvSAeCXDw?si=ouwnLio2qY-kK5Ny

[magic current]

open season has you kill the raiders it makes sense that an option would be avaliable to call in backup from ya factions

[weak coyote]

Yes, but what they are saying is there should be a quest to wipe out the factions like open season... Open season you don't call in help.
So that's not what they meant.

[urban sail]

It would make sense to have something like the Acadia quest where you can call in the Institute or the Brotherhood to wipe out the raiders

[ashen scaffold]

Does anyone know of a mod on ps4 where it lets me move the object anywhere I want? The one I was using stopped working

[austere epoch]

So I decided to play a few hours on a Sunday afternoon. The game was running great. No crashes at all. Then I was remodeling Kingsport Lighthouse, and when I went to add some couches from the Modern Furniture CC pack, it suddenly crashed out of nowhere. 24 settlers, build limit around 55-60%. No mods affecting this settlement. Is it the CC content? Has Bethesda been charging us money to make the game unstable?

It's just bizarre that I could add a bunch of generators and purifiers and turrets and reassign a bunch of settlers, but as soon as I try to add that particular couch, boom

[proven elm]

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

[austere epoch]

Qwapa? That's what I use. It gives you a post that attaches to the item and then you move the post

[ashen scaffold]

Thank you!

[ashen scaffold]

Mine is just called “place anywhere tool” and it’s the same thing where you get a post and you put it on the object you’re trying to move and then move it. It’s not working, I’m not sure why

[rigid bay]

I'd put it up somewhere. I wouldn't get rid of it.

Honestly the Combat Rifle platform fits my play style better, but the Assault Rifle may be better spec-wise, and you can't argue with that magazine size. I never really used them in FO4

[ashen scaffold]

That one didn’t give me a post

[molten pilot]

tbh why didnt Bethesda just make the Combat Shotgun and Standard ones just together. A simple "shotgun shell reciever"

[autumn yew]

I played a bit with the 2S-AR and really dug it. Ran around doing quests and then made my way back to DC to swap out for the OG. Using all the same mods, I've run around doing more quests. After about 2 hours of play I decided the 2S-AR is my jam! The control is just so much better and the mag size is killer. I only sacrifice like 10-15 DMG on the trade off.

So, looks like the 2S-AR (named Twin Pain) will be my weap of choice until I get some exploding weap drops (not interested in the Spray n Pray which sits in my DC house).

[austere epoch]

You build the post in the special section of the build menu

[austere epoch]

It's really fun when you stop a settlement attack, and then you want to do stuff at your settlement, but you can't because all the settlers are locked into "Thanks for your help, friend" and "You showed up just in the nick of time" dialogue loops

[weak coyote]

In my experience, ccc causes crashes and 0kb

[weak coyote]

Could just use the post and rug method

[ashen scaffold]

I was able to find the post, for some reason it was invisible

[mental hatch]

Can I change my keybind for rotating a settlement wall ?

[lilac saffron]

Did Bethesda ever fix fallout4 after the next gen update?

[austere epoch]

There was a "patch" but it's still unstable as hell

[mental hatch]

What's new with next gen? I know they added some new dlcs from the game some are originally from CC I think?

[austere epoch]

I've been playing for a month and change, and in that time the game has crashed more than every other game I've played over the rest of my life combined.

It's honestly embarrassing. You know what's an example of a game that also calculates a crapload of stuff at once all the time? Tears of the Kingdom. You know what game ran without a single hitch over 100+ hours on far weaker hardware?

I'm just addicted to the settlement stuff as well as Piper and Curie 😔

[mental hatch]

I love building my own structures , you can make cool things

[austere epoch]

Kinda want to play a Nintendo game after this playthrough just to remember what stability and reliability feel like

[austere epoch]

Yeah I'm super into building. And somehow I got the worst version for that, lol (PS5)

I see stuff on YouTube like a guy who turned all of Spectacle Island into a massive pyramid. Maybe someday

Friend told me I should just play Minecraft, but like, I don't only want to build. I want to build a settlement empire in this apocalyptic wasteland

[mental hatch]

Oh ig ps5 version is alit buggier I play on my laptop (potato mode lol )
I'm used to playing with 20 fps or abit lower

I also seen a YouTube video where the guy showcases his sanctuary turned into like Megatron type place with so much detail put in it

[austere epoch]

Gotta look into that one

[serene arch]

I remember building a UFO moored to the top of the power pylon in Abernathy Farm. Plenty of strobe lights on it.

[weak coyote]

You mean invisible in the build menu?
Cause yeah that happens, a way to fix it is to open the build menu at a different settlement, then go back to the previous one.

[magic current]

is there a way to reduce the visual effect that happens when you crouch its so bright

[weak coyote]

Mods
You can remove the effect from the perk

[austere epoch]

Gonna look into this, thanks 🙏

[lilac saffron]

didnt know fo4 goty edition comes with fo3, nice

[open hearth]

is there any thinking about fallout 5 ?

[proven elm]

This is the Fallout 4 chat. Feel free to discuss Fallout 5 in #fallout-general-chat

[weak coyote]

After the next elder scrolls.
Would like them to focus on another FO4 update for a minute, to fix what the next Gen update broke.

[open hearth]

next elderscrolls would take long tho.

[proven elm]

Again, move this to #fallout-general-chat

[still wasp]

anybody recommend running 40fps on fallout 4 ps5??? and how is it?

[weak coyote]

It's either 30 fps or 60

[still wasp]

nah there is a 40fps mode if you have a 120hz tv/monitor

[amber maple]

So.. what do you do, in a 50+ hour Survival save, on xbox, and say.. you get the not-so-uncommon bug that the Manwell rifle from CC doesnt spawn? I have no save to roll back to, i have no console to spawn it.. so if i really want that quest and rifle i paid for.. im truly f'd?

[amber maple]

Xbox here.. i tried it at 40fps, but I didn't see a point in doing so when I set it to 60 and prioritize visuals .. 40 makes no sense then

[still wasp]

stuttering? isent there expecting it in boston area mostly

ps5 at 60 stuttering is a problem its very annoying

[still wasp]

is it still smooth and fine?

[amber maple]

Haven't really had any issues with it

[mossy coral]

Same

[worn bay]

I need help

When I try to jump from the vertibird from the spoils of war quest brotherhood main storyline it won’t let me jump. It tells me to click enter and it’s not working

Anyone

I did it I had to press e

[marsh tusk]

Does anyone know how to fix the vats glitch were there is randomly a 0% chance to hit your target even though he is right in front of you and at the same time the vats percentages are delayed?

[magic current]

ok i need a hand i have a BOS sentinel character but i want to keep acadia alive to keep them alive the trigger is to not slelect a dialouge option with captain keils right?

[weak coyote]

Thought that was only Xbox for some reason?!?

[weak coyote]

This bug was introduced with the next Gen update, we are waiting for a patch fix update.

Until then, I suggest using a mod like rings of time instead of vats.

[weak coyote]

Don't inform the bos of Arcadia

[magic current]

whos the guy tho dose it basically block out squire missions for me from keils

[weak coyote]

Activate the quest... Follow the marker.

[astral sun]

Hello

[austere epoch]

"Curie idolizes you" YES

Guess I'm cheating on Piper, sorry not sorry

[magic current]

so my current character is MM based but could i get to sentinel and then do the MM ending where we use artilery to knock the balloon out the sky?

[urban sail]

You can only get Sentinel by doing the BoS ending

[pseudo fog]

Yes, it's Kells. Just don't inform him of Acadia.

[lilac saffron]

So I'm on PS5 playing fallout 4 ps4 ver and up to the shadow of steel quest and I need to ride the vertibird from Cambridge To The Prydwen and it just won't let me get in the vertibird it doesn't give you the option to click on it press a button "nothing"

[silk oriole]

whats the best mod for power armors from nexus

[weak coyote]

Try the mod "holotape of quest fixing", advance the quest stage.
You will also need a mod that shows all map markers as discovered, because the vertibird that you use as a doorway from the airport to the prydwen won't be on the ground until after you visit the prydwen. Fast travel after advancing the quest stage. If your on survival, you won't be able to fast travel. So...

Otherwise you have to try a previous save and hope you can board the vertibird, or start over and hope the police station doesn't bug out again, there are a few game breaking bugs there, like Danse check your fire bug, and the bos vertibird not being able to be destroyed during a railroad quest.

[still wasp]

save reload and maybe quit game to ps home and relaunch try again

[silk oriole]

whats the best power armor mod from nexus

[proven elm]

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

[silk oriole]

ok 3 or vegas

@still wasp

[still wasp]

i cant say haven’t like put alot of hours in either yet but 4 ive got like

[weak coyote]

If you want to play an online fallout.
Personally prefer single player.

[still wasp]

agree more with this

[silk oriole]

ik but ive already done the main quest in fo4

[still wasp]

any settings or such for ps5 fallout 4 to make 60fps better?

[proven elm]

I prefer Fallout 3, myself.

[weak coyote]

That's performance mode, that's the best it's going to run.
But you could try mods that disable God rays and lens flares, aswell as mods that reduce grass and insignificant objects.

[silk oriole]

do you know the best power armor mod except red shift ultracite and hellcat and t65 from nexus

[weak coyote]

Fallout and Elder Scrolls to me is a single player experience... Never had interest in either online games.

[weak coyote]

You don't see the (Playstation) in my ID...?
Besides you've been told multiple times, you'd have better luck asking in #fallout-4-mods

[silk oriole]

they wont give me answers😭😭

Patience

[weak coyote]

I use "some assembly required" mod
It removes almost all power armor from the game that you find randomly just sitting there around every corner, there are basically only 1 instance of each type, and it changes the stats and material requirements to modify and repair.
It makes power armor special and a unique thing, instead of having over a hundred suits scattered everywhere.

[magic current]

anyone got a guide on how to get a RR/BOS/MM ending?

[granite remnant]

Fallout

[weak coyote]

Google fallout 4 three way peace

[lilac saffron]

Rr i did by going straight to old north church, gained access to HQ, rescued valentine killed Kellogg, found Virgil in glowing sea, got schematics to buils the relay system, did some quests for institute and aided a rebel team of synths then relayed railroad in and we placed the nuclear charge. To destroy BoS with RR first u go to Cambridge police station, kill BoS guards, steal the Vertibird on roof, deacon gives you BoS disguise, you get onto prydwen and not blow your cover, place charges on gas tanks inside prydwen and escape

BoS ending i joined BoS at Cambridge police station and helped Danse in arc jet systems, killed Kellogg with Valentine, Prydwen showed up, reported to Danse, we went to Prydwen, Maxson gave me a long ahh speech, did some quests, found virgil took schematics made the relay, entered the institute, pretented i was an ally of Institute, relayed BoS in, and placed nuclear charge and big boom

[urban sail]

I think they meant the ending where you keep all 3 alive

You can do BoS quests up to and including Blind Betrayal but don't talk to Kells at the start of Tactical Thinking or the Railroad will become hostile. Do all Institute/Railroad quests until you get Mass Fusion, then het yourself kicked out of the Institute by killing any named member. Underground Undercover will fail and the Minutemen ending will start, and you keep all factions except the Institute friendly.

[weak coyote]

Yeah you have to use the mm ending to keep a 3 way peace

You will be able to continue to do radiant quests for all 3 remaining factions.

[clever panther]

Is fallout London an dlc or a mod? Coz I heard Bethesda helped

[tall matrix]

Mod the size of a brand new game, no help

[full mango]

It's a fan made mod

[clever panther]

No help?? Oh man... I really wanted to see something between fans and a company tougher,thanks for the answer

[autumn yew]

So a mod and possibly also a job application! 😆🔥

[limpid hedge]

Do you need fallout 4 to play fallout London on GOG??

[clever panther]

Nintendo would respond differently...

[autumn yew]

Gotta love companies/devs who celebrates fans celebrating their games in the ways they do!

[leaden rapids]

hello guys, can you help me

in a molecular-level task, the path to freedom does not work

how to fix it

[urban sail]

You can just go to the end of the path (||old north church||) directly. The password is ||Railroad||

[leaden rapids]

i do it and door was open but nothing happens and it was only dark in there

[sonic remnant]

guys i need help in nuka world

im about to fight the boss by the cars in nuka world and i can't interact with the intercom any tips????

how do i fix the bug??

pls help how do i fix the bug im basically soft locked and idk how to leave nuka worlddd???

[austere epoch]

Well, it happened. I got 3 corrupt autosaves, which means I have no autosaves to load, and my last hard save was over a week ago. I'm probably done. I'm mad at myself for not taking more precautions, but really just so mad at Bethesda for shipping such crap code

[austere epoch]

Might actually just replay from the old hard save though. I didn't do much except faff around with settlement building. The main thing is I'd have to redo Curie's entire quest, but whatever

[austere epoch]

%!#$ I'd also have to redo the Eddie Winter holotapes for Nick. I don't know how one single person thought that was good quest design

[waxen pebble]

If Bethesda helped, you wouldn't have to downgrade the game to play FOLON.

[weak coyote]

Hah!
Better quality...

[formal mica]

Man, I hope they fix fallout 4 on console :[

[rotund flax]

with the release of fallout london mod, i purchased F4 GOTY edition on g2a not realizing i already owned the game. so im giving away my key for steam. if it hasnt been redeemed yet its yours, first come first serve.
QJP5Q-IIN03-TRPIQ

[rigid bay]

Actually no, Nintendo makes Super Mario Maker (and its sequel) and people make custom levels for it and publish them online with Nintendo's full blessing and support.

This isn't much different. Bethesda also makes the Creation Kit that allows people to make, among other things, custom Fallout worlds. Though they might reasonably take issue with them advertising it with the name "Fallout," as opposed to Enderal which is a whole game built around Skyrim, but it's not set in the Skyrim universe. It's its own thing. And that is on Steam if you own Skyrim (or Skyrim SE).

Kind of wish Bethesda would help modders of big projects like this get onto consoles as well, though I'm not sure PlayStation/Xbox support that. Like here's a modded copy of an existing game, all configured for you with a bunch of mods to help it out (I'm really looking at Legacy of the Dragonborn for Skyrim as that's a much more complex build), and this package is free if you own the game it's based on... you know they want their cut. But, it would be cool (and the hardware is capable).

[still wasp]

thnx does anybody know if i can run 120hz 40fps on fallout 4 at 1080p (ps5)

[frail basalt]

Guys should i buy the goty edition

It’s on sale

[still wasp]

thnx does anybody know if i can run 120hz 40fps on fallout 4 at 1080p (ps5)

[sweet marten]

Get it from gog.com NOT xbox, NOT epic, maybe Steam if you insist but Gog is DRM-free and won't update the program on you if you don't tell it to. Xbox = very limited mods, Epic = no way to downgrade the version so won't run London or mods that haven't been updated for the broken new version.

[austere epoch]

Bethesda isn't capable of making a console game that can't have its save files corrupted, and they're going to make a huge mod better?

Okay whichever moderator deleted that second comment. I didn't use any profanity. I'm not allowed to say they're bad coders?

[errant echo]

would be against #rules

the way it was said

[austere epoch]

Okay I apologize. I'm a little heated after losing all my save files except one from two weeks ago. I'll keep it in line

[errant echo]

Totally understand. Generally when people post like that, it's from frustration. Just make sure you post in a way where it follows #rules and is helpful for everyone involved.

[lilac saffron]

My creation club tab is missing from the menu, I tried the disconnect method but it didn't work. Any other solutions?

[sweet marten]

I understand the frustration, but the first rule of playing Bethesda engine games is: do manual saves often, as often as you don't want to lose any progress. Autosave and exit save are not to be trusted, you might even want to disable them.

[austere epoch]

Tbh I didn't even know that a corrupted save was possible outside of weird events like a power outage as the game tries to save. I did destroy a Dark Souls save once by trying to unplug the system just as my character was about to die. It's kind of crazy.

[sweet marten]

At least on PC you also have to be careful about how long you play a Beth engine game, espcially Fallout 3, New Vegas, Oblivion, Morrowind. If you play more than maybe 2 hours your risk of a crash goes way up. On console exiting might not really close the app so I'm not sure what to do there. Console might also be less crash-prone?

[austere epoch]

I would not call my console experience less crash prone than anything, lol

Actually the original version in 2015 on base PS4 didn't crash much. Some areas of DT Boston were iffy, especially exiting an interior cell into the open world. Something weird happened with the update

[night storm]

The Financial District was always an issue on console for me, lots of crashes in that area.

[restive crater]

Any updates on the VATS isaues?

[quartz canyon]

Anyone know why fallout 4 is requiring Playstation network?

Damn it just saw consoles busted atm

[naive hamlet]

This is a really dumb question, but how the hell do you scoll down on a quest text box in FO4 on PC? Like this, where's too many objectives to see in the quest

https://i.imgur.com/Oj92HRD.png

[worthy geyser]

what are the best mods to improve my 10mm revolver (just started out)

[woeful copper]

Hover the mouse over and scroll down?

[spark horizon]

So im playing fo4 for the first time and Ive been grinding the BoS questline and just realized that I only did the intro to the railroad questline and failed it since I didnt speak to the person who runs it. Did I miss out on anything by not working on the Railroad questline? From what I understand if I go with the BoS, the Railroad and Institute have to go anyways?

[indigo imp]

I tried to use Creation Club content on my pre-next-gen installation so I could use it along with all of my mods, but it just causes the game to crash when trying to load a save or start a new game! I PAID for this; why did Bethesda make it so you can no longer use your Creation Club content on older versions?

[austere epoch]

Ballistic weave

Maybe a couple weapons?

[night storm]

Deliverer

Also the Cloak and Dagger perk

[spark horizon]

Ballistic weave?

[night storm]

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

[austere epoch]

If you want, you can easily find a mod that will just unlock ballistic weave without the Railroad

[weak coyote]

A game like this is meant to be played through multiple times, making different decisions and experiencing a different path.

[weak coyote]

The ccc had to be updated to function with the current Build of the game

[spark horizon]

🫡

Anyone know why my game hasnt been saving? I have mods but like sleeping in beds, and even with my settings set to basically save every 5 mins + a mod that used to autosave whenever I was out of combat all of a sudden aren't saving.

I lost a couple hours of progress because my game isn't saving like how it used to

[weak coyote]

Probably the saving mod screwed things up, even when you've disabled or deleted a mod it can sometimes be baked into the save, the changes made are permanent... Sometimes.

[spark horizon]

[subtle fossil]

So, dumb question, but I bought FO4 GOTY on PC through the Xbox app when it was on sale like 2 years ago, it worked just fine then, now (post next gen update) it won't launch. The launcher opens up to where I can see the options, support, etc. But if i press play it just closes the launcher. Nothing happens other than that. Anyone have any suggestions?

[hidden dagger]

@subtle fossil
I think I had that same issue yesterday. I just kept closing out the app and reloading and the 3rd try it loaded. Beyond that, I have nothing... maybe try reinstalling the game files?🤔

[subtle fossil]

Already did. About 6 times in fact lol, I honestly don't have a clue. I've tried launching it through files, app, nothing works that I've thought of at least.

[austere epoch]

So I've read that if you want to steal enemy power armor, you can snipe out the fusion core. How do you do this without killing the wearer? Every time I've tried, the armor user just dies and I can't salvage the frame

The frame is all I want; DGA* about a Raider Power Torso or whatever

[proven comet]

You can target the core in vats they'll typically die if your weapon is too strong so I would recommend using a weaker weapon something like a 10mm or pipe weapon

[austere epoch]

That makes perfect sense, lol

[weak coyote]

The perk to shoot through objects helps

Hey, how long did it take to downgrade Fallout 4? It's been 20mins or longer for mine... Should I start over?

How can I install mods that suffer from the operation cannot be completed bug?

[austere epoch]

Got the 0kb bug for the first time. It seems to have gone away after I did a full reset of my PS5, but this coming so close on the heels of 3 corrupt autosaves, I'm thinking it might be getting close to the end for Madeleine Falbright

Hi all! i need some help regarding a matter of telling steam that i will never update fallout 4
my current version of fallout 4 is 1.10.163.0
steam is telling me there is an update available to download upon launch
is there a way to tell steam i will never install the latest update?

[acoustic folio]

hey, dont know if this is the right place to ask this question, but if im downloading the fallout london downgrader, can i just download it through vortex or do manual instal? also do i need to download fallout london itself first

So much for the next Gen patch notes saying okb was fixed...

How do I complete Defend the castle while doing Ad victorium

[copper blade]

so for fallout london i need all of the dlc installed for steam installation? so i buy a season pass then patch it?

i have the base game installed have not patched next gen

[urban sail]

Completing Ad Victoriam will automatically complete Defend the Castle.

[spark horizon]

Oh ok, I just set up a bunch of defenses in the castle and it automatically started so I just rushed to ad victoriam

Is there a way to have MM present for Ad Victoriam?

So they help the BoS actively? @urban sail

[urban sail]

No, you can bring Preston as your companion but that's it

[spark horizon]

Thats a shame, it'd be dope to be commanding both forces in that

[magic current]

ok can i become sentinel of the BOS and then turn on them with the minitemen?

[wintry topaz]

Where is the fallout new Vegas chat

It’s the best fallout it deserves a chat

[indigo imp]

I have an extensive mod list, but most of my mods don’t get updates anymore and still use the old BA2 format, meaning they will probably never work on the new version.

[night storm]

This is a Bethesda discord, FNV was not produced by Bethesda.

[wintry topaz]

It was published by Bethesda. But it was made by obsidian but fair point

[night storm]

Honestly, I wish there was a good FNV channel as well. But I'm not holding my breath.

[steady tundra]

Getting into Fallout 4 (playing GOTY before trying London). I'm also a hoarder and try to be a completionist.
This is a MAJOR issue in Fallout 4!
Anyone have advise or a site that lists out the junk/items I can ignore just because you find soooo much of it? I'm not looking to race through the game (not taking idiot savant) but 6 back and forth trips to the observatory is a bit much!

😂

(playing survival too)

[proven elm]

There are two comapnies named "Bethesda." Bethesda Softworks, the publisher, and Bethesda Game Studios, the developers. This is the Bethesda Game Studios Discord, not the Bethesda Softworks Discord. This is why you do not see Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, Hi-Fi Rush or Elder Scrolls Online chats here either.

[wintry topaz]

Oh so which one do I join

[proven elm]

Obsidian Entertainment runs their own Discrod. You can find it here: https://discord.com/channels/212316585333882880/784198659754688552

[urban sail]

Yes, if you become enemies with the BOS at any point after The Nuclear Option you can destroy the Prydwen

[wintry topaz]

Oh sweet thanks man

[steady tundra]

Answering my own question on rare components to pick up (or items that break down into these components). This was put together from several online lists. Thoughts?
Acid
Adhesive
Aluminum
Antiseptic
Asbestos
Ballistic Fiber
Circuitry
Crystal
Fertilizer
Fiber-optics
Gold
Nuclear material
Oil
Screws
Silver
I also saw several people mention cloth, but I'm finding it in abundance(?) One trick is that armor isn't readily broken down into components when crafting, but if you're in settlement mode you can drop armor on the ground and scrap it down into its components. Many of them have cloth.

[night storm]

Same for clothing items - they always give cloth IIRC

[steady tundra]

Yup. Anything you would add to the above list? I haven't played too far into FO4 yet.

[night storm]

Gears (and items that break down into gears) are useful.

[steady tundra]

Ahhh. Good one. Thanks!

[night storm]

Gold is useful, but you get as much as you're likely to ever need in the abandoned root cellar in Sanctuary (Gold bars there)

[steady tundra]

Ok. So, don't have to horde those.
The watches and lighters are useful for caps, I guess. (caps to weight ratio)

[night storm]

Watches give gears, lighters give oil

Adhesive is probably the most used component. Worthwhile picking up or growing the ingredients for vegetable starch.

[steady tundra]

That's what I've heard.
I'm not really much into settlements. I'll do what's needed to complete questlines though.

[night storm]

Adhesive is mostly used for weapon and armor mods

[steady tundra]

How about springs? Are they rare?

[night storm]

Useful, but not rare.

Worth keeping for sure

[austere epoch]

You can safely ignore most wood items because you'll get thousands of wood pieces by scrapping. Steel important early, but eventually you'll be swimming in it. Get all the aluminum you can, because it's used in basically all the high level upgrades. Upgrading a suit of power armor can run you like 100 aluminum. Plastic is important if you want to make and sell Jet for caps

I was constantly low on adhesive in the early game, but after getting some settlements up and running it stopped being a problem. You can make vegetable starch which is 5 adhesive using tato, corn and I think mutfruit?

Cloth and ceramic were also bottlenecks at one point. Pick up every teddy bear

In general, while scavenging, look at the weight to resources ratio of everything. Some junk is way more efficient than other junk

[austere epoch]

But since you said you aren't going to build big settlements, you don't even really need that many resources. I've been using mostly the same weapons and armor for like 50 levels. Once you find some stuff with good legendary effects and upgrade those to the max, you're kind of set

I've had the same Two Shot combat rifle since like level 40

[night storm]

Overseer's Guardian can take you all the way through the game. Same with Righteous Authority.

And Deliverer (assuming mods and beneficial perks for all)

[magic current]

hehehehe got my hands on a freezing flamer

[weak coyote]

If you have a companion, you don't need to worry about weight, place junk on ground or in a container, command a companion to pick it up, they don't have weight limit issues.
Also you can build a automatron that can carry over 500 pounds.

[austere epoch]

Idk why the game wants to keep giving you the romance flag over and over for companions you took the friends route with. My character is not going to date MacCready. I already had to exile Preston back to Sanctuary because it was just the romance flag every time I passed by him, and I'm thinking of sending Littls Mac to Spectacle Island at this point

My character is canonically in a lesbian polycule with Piper and Curie, and that's that

Did I bring this on myself by choosing the flirt option at the mid affinity conversation? I just wanted the speech XP

[river mulch]

I actually just gave up on companions in general after my 4th playthrough.

[austere epoch]

This is my second playthrough, and on my first I think I only used Piper, Nick and Dogmeat. This was my first time even meeting Curie, Cait or Strong

Strong is currently learning about the Milk of Human Kindness from the Abernathys

[river mulch]

Sadly I just un-installed the game after almost 600 hours. I had over 300 mods and after a handful updated I decided I wasn't going to spend the time disabling the one by one to see which broke it.

Same thing happened with Skyrim lmao. One day you're fart shouting Macho man Randy Savage Dragons to death the next it crashes on start

[deep oxide]

Hey, I know it’s been a while since the fallout 4 update but am I allowed to talk about it now without getting my messages deleted and/or muted?

[errant echo]

As long as it follows the #rules if you have a question/concern about those rules , contact the moderators through DMing @inland summit

[deep oxide]

No, I mean like when the update dropped if you said anything about it, your messages got deleted. Is that still happening?

[errant echo]

Messages that were deleted were against #rules

If you have a question about why a particular message was deleted, contact the moderators through DMing @inland summit

[charred bay]

So Fallout 4 is still broken. Just opened it back up and still can't get mods

[errant echo]

I would suggest contacting our support team for troubleshooting through https://help.bethesda.net/#en/home/product/695/fallout4cat/8

[weak coyote]

What's the point, they just reply (if at all) with copy pasted responses that don't fix anything.

How about some news on a patch, tell us something, is there going to be a update to fix the mods menu and vats?
Give us something.
Should we just find a mod that fixes the game?

[errant echo]

That's generally how troubleshooting works. You start with the simple stuff that fixes most issues and go towards the more complex stuff.

If we had any information, it would be in #fallout-announcements '

[deep oxide]

Dog there is no point in arguing they’ll either mute us or just ban us

[night storm]

Honestly, discord mods probably have little if any more information than is public.

[serene arch]

Anyone who moderates social medias gets used to dealing with people lacking in maturity and self awareness

[odd carbon]

I was hoping the last update would fix the “invisible crop” glitch but I still have it occurring, is there a fix for this?

[austere epoch]

I've gotten so paranoid with saves now. Every time I go to a new settlement I'm saving and then loading that save to make sure it's not corrupt. No issues so far, but I think some areas on my map are just a little screwed up in my game file, and if I make three consecutive saves there I'm done

[weak coyote]

You don't have to load your save and do all that , just go in your game saves in the Playstation settings menu, the save file will show as corrupt. It will be obvious.

[coarse notch]

Hey all, question. I have 2 10mm legendary pistols. One with "Refills your action points on Crit" and the other with "25% faster fire rate, 15% faster reload". Right now the first gun has all the superior mods, but with VATS being broken and unusable, I'm wondering if it would be better to move all the mods to the 2nd gun.

[weak coyote]

Since vats is broken, yeah, don't rely on vats and play it like a straight up fps'er.
Try a mod like "rings of time" you can have deadeye with any weapon, basically replace vats.

[coarse notch]

Once I finish this first vanilla playthough I'll do mods. I've had the game on PS5 since it was free as for buying a PS5, started it, they announced the next gen patch like 3 months after that, so I quite playing. Then I got an Series X last year and put off playing it there until the patch dropped. Same with picking it back up on PS5 haha

[weak coyote]

Wasn't really talking directly to anyone specific on here, just saying that Bethesda should say something, anything.
Guess I'm just used to other developers keeping thier fans in the loop.

[coarse notch]

I hate how in order to remove a mod, you have to basically waste resources creating a lower tier one

[waxen pebble]

Welcome to the Bethesda Discord. They've got nothing to say. They may or may not have another patch in the works. Either way, they don't communicate anything anymore until they decide to make an official announcement. You, me, and several modders are waiting to see if there is another patch. Some modders are still waiting before they attempt to update their mods for next-gen.

[magic current]

So nukaworld has the handmade rifle and far harbour has the lever action rifle but what dose the base game commonwelth have in terms of slick weapons

[serene arch]

@magic current I usually use Righteous Authority, Overseers Guardian , the Deliverer and a gauss rifle

[magic current]

yeah im thinking of the deliverer for the commonwealth since its got a custom model

its got its charms but its dated

[magic current]

is thera bobble head in the institute or just the magazine?

[magic current]

XD thanks for the quick response so im not jetpacking over the institute

[magic current]

whould danse get angry if i blew up the BOS with the MM artilery

[urban sail]

Yes he's still loyal to them despite being exiled

[magic current]

so say i send danse to a settlement then blow up the BOS with the MM after blind betrayal will he open fire on me while in the settlement?

[urban sail]

No but you will lose him as a companion. He just becomes a regular settler

[magic current]

cool thats a good outcome for me

he will be a day to day runner of the castle for me and the MM

[magic current]

WOAH whys he got a suit of X-01 i went to go check on him at listening post bravo after nuking the institute

[urban sail]

He switches to X-01 after Blind Betrayal

[magic current]

right im nearing the end of my tour with the BOS just got some things to tie up how do i trigger the attack on the BOS airship with the MM?

[urban sail]

You need to become enemies with the BoS, then talk to Preston

After you complete the Nuclear Option for the BoS

[magic current]

cool ill start with the squires

i think my current route atm is to get old guns then start giving the BOS a kick in the can

i just said something out loud and need to know... when was the last sentinel before our player character in fallout 4

[urban sail]

Sarah?

[magic current]

if i nuke the BOS i loose access to their paints dont i

[lilac saffron]

Has anybody had an issue with Fallout 4 being sped up?

[steady tundra]

Wall clock faster or you faster in the game?

[lilac saffron]

Everything? menus, speech, cutscenes

[steady tundra]

Are you using any mods that could affect this (physics fix)? Custom INI settings (BethINI)?

[lilac saffron]

I downgraded my game using the TeamFOLON Downgrader

just, fyi

but I also used that downgrader for my dad and his game was fine

[steady tundra]

Hmmm. Using Unofficial patch and/or Buffout?

[lilac saffron]

nope

[steady tundra]

I haven't heard of this, honestly.
I know it sucks, but I would try a step by step nuke and start from scratch.

IMPORTANT - you must delete all the fallout 4 folders once you uninstall. The one is documents definitely, and maybe the one in AppData too.

[lilac saffron]

Is there a way to view the files of an unmodded fallout 4, just for comparison? because I really dont feel like reinstalling it completely, because then I would have to downgrade again which takes quite a while

[steady tundra]

Best to start with absolutely no old FO4 folders lying around.
I don't know about comparing. From what the London devs have said some files get changed so even if you see the same file you can't be sure it's the unmodified version, unless you compare the hash. At that point probably quicker to just do a full reinstall.

[lilac saffron]

I just explained why I dont want to do that

[steady tundra]

Sorry. Hopefully someone else here knows a fix for what you are experiencing.

[lilac saffron]

Hopefully

[wise lion]

Full reinstall and downgrade or make a copy of the base game before installing mods. A lot of mods will change ini settings, etc... So these are mainly the only ways do it without messing up the client in some ways.

[lilac saffron]

again, I dont want to do that. I have slow internet so its not really an option for me

[urban sail]

Do you have an Nvidia graphics card? The game speed is directly connected to the framerate, so you need to cap the framerate at 60 fps in the Nvidia control panel

[lilac saffron]

I've never had this issue before but I might try that just to see if thats whats causing it

[wise lion]

Then you are asking for the impossible haha. It's why its always recommended to make a copy of a game before modding it. Depending on how many mods you have and the type of mods, its legit not possible to make it the base game anymore without using the copy or reinstalling. There is a reason every game ever warns you to mod at your own risk.
But also, seeing your mod load list would be helpful in giving an accurate answer as well

[lilac saffron]

I fixed it tho, so.... deffo not as impossible as you think

[steady tundra]

The new BethINIs have a 'restore to defaults' button which is very useful. It's not a mod you install per se, just a little program you run and point to the Fallout 4 INI location.

[wise lion]

Super helpful!

[lilac saffron]

How do I find that?

[steady tundra]

https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/631

It works for Skyrim, Fallout 4, and Starfield.

[steady tundra]

This may allow you to restore your INIs but it won't do anything for the other files London modifies. I didn't post it as a fix to your issue, more to show that INIs can be reset.

[lilac saffron]

I havent actually installed London, just downgraded

[steady tundra]

Hmmm. Ok.
Worth a shot I guess.

I mean you could also just go to your documents folder where the Fallout 4 INIs are and cut/paste them somewhere else (for backup). The game should just recreate the default ones the next time you launch.

[lilac saffron]

I was just seeing what else it could do for you, it allows you to change a bunch of settings before hand which is actually pretty neat, also I used that tool and also reverted my max framerate (because if I keep it capped, it will just stay fixed either way) and its fixed it, so im sure it was an INI issue then

[wise lion]

With a Bethesda game, ya never know 😛 I've been saved so many times just by having backups of stuff. Games can go from working fine to crashing with no end in site in the snap of a finger xD

[steady tundra]

It's fixed?!
Wow. Cool!

[lilac saffron]

I try to avoid making backups of games with a big file size but it would save a lot of time tbh

[wise lion]

Yeah, 120+ gigs is a lot to have just sitting around, but is def a time saver when things hit the fan haha xD

Can be like trying to fix the worst hornets nest on a fishing pole, sometimes its best to just cut it and put new line on ha.

[lilac saffron]

yeah I mean I have the storage, but if I did that for every game I would be halving the amount I actually have lol

[steady tundra]

BTW, it also has some pre-set configurations. With most high-end gaming systems nowadays you can just use the BethINI Ultra button and then tweak accordingly. Do NOT just throw all sliders up to max - you WILL induce crashes/instability. The game engine has its limits.

[lilac saffron]

I just clicked ultra because thats always what I use

[fossil shoal]

Are there any differences between the GOG.com and Steam versions of Fallout 4 apart from the lack of DRM and Creation Club in the former?

[steady tundra]

Other than that, the GOTYE of the GOG and Steam versions are the same.

[lilac saffron]

I heard that the GOG version doesnt have the next gen update, Gopher mentioned it in one of his Fallout London videos

[steady tundra]

Oh, yeah, sorry.
We were talking about downgraded version previously. Thought you meant that one.
GOG version does NOT have the next-gen update. This is the version I have. I'm playing with several mods, maxed out graphics, and have over 40 hours in current save without one crash. 😉

[fossil shoal]

That's what I was wondering about because GOG.com's advertisement for Fallout London says that their version doesn't have the same issues as the Steam version.

[magic current]

@urban sail say i tell the BOS about the synths at Acadia and then turn on the BOS would i beable to get the knight captains power armour and still get the peiceful ending of far harbour?

[urban sail]

If you want to play Fallout London, you don't have to downgrade the GOG version because it doesn't have the update yet.

[lilac saffron]

Nice, I usually have a pretty smooth experience too tbh

[steady tundra]

At first I was rooting for the next-gen update, but it looks to still be a mess, so I'm happy with the OG GOTYE of Fallout 4.

[fossil shoal]

Supposedly the issues with the next-gen patch is that it causes performance issues with mods that edit NPC records.

[steady tundra]

According to Arthmoor, yes.
He said he's done extensive testing and ANY edit (even benign ones that don't change anything) induces the performance issue.
I trust Arthmoor on this issue. Known about him since the Morrowind modding days 20 years ago.

[lilac saffron]

Yeah same, Todd even said that a majority of mods should work... but then most of them broke

[fallen condor]

Is there any fix for the game not functioning on labtops?

[mild crystal]

HELLO

[undone dust]

is anyone here well versed in the PS4 modding world? 😅🥲

[fallen condor]

I'm starting to feel the insane conspiracy that maybe they broke fallout 4 on purpose with the last patch so everyone HAS to play 76.

[urban sail]

You can get the peaceful ending as long as you don't actually instruct the BoS to attack, so you have to pickpocket his fusion core and steal his armor before talking to him. Completing the Far Harbor questline will automatically fail the Search and Destroy quest so it should be possible. I would wait with turning on the BoS until after you've done this just to be sure.

[steady tundra]

...or spend $15 on the GOG version.
Occam's razor - incompetence is way lower on the ladder than planned obsolescence. 😉

[fallen condor]

What's different between the Steam, Xbox, or GOG versions of the game?

[steady tundra]

GOG is still the old version.
Steam and XB is the next-gen version.

[fallen condor]

It's too bad you couldn't opt out of a game breaking version of the game on steam.

[magic current]

my gameplan is to take a hard save when i first enter far harbour and then just go get the BOS interested in the synths and then barrage the Far harbour BOS with bullets to see what happens

[fallen condor]

Or like when I bought the game on PS4 by mistake, and then they turnned off console modding.

[urban sail]

The knight captains power armor will become unobtainable if you kill him while he's in it so you have to force him out of it first. Shooting his fusion core should also do the trick but I think you'll need the Penetrator perk

[magic current]

ah ok

[undone dust]

why did my modlist disappear man ;-;

[weak coyote]

I am to a degree

[undone dust]

this is my issue 😅 #fallout-4-mods message

[lilac saffron]

Does anybody know why i cant change my FOV? I'm using a mod that allows you to change it, I know that both mods required for it are also working

[lilac saffron]

Next gen update keeps crashing on me every few hours

Im playing survival, yall can see why im annoyed

[austere epoch]

Somehow my Mechanist Lair settlement hit 0% happiness. It's just two robots and the Mechanist, who I spared. They shouldn't need anything. I went back and added some mutfruit planters, 3 beds, a turret, and a rain collector. Gotta see if it goes back up. It's weird

[austere epoch]

You're gonna have to get Saving Survival Mode if you want to actually finish the game imo. It's pretty much unplayable otherwise. That or find every random bed in the Commonwealth and remember where all of them are.

Probably less than half the quests I've done would have actually been completed without the save mod. The game will usually crash either during the quest, while using a vertibird, or upon getting back to a settlement after the quest. A few times it crashed while the game was trying to autosave after sleeping. That was the last straw for me

I know everyone at BGS is a human being just trying to do their best, but they really put out some bad code with this one

Vertibirds are so bad for this. I eventually installed a fast travel mod too because settlement defense quests became almost impossible. It would often take 3-4 attempts to actually get to the settlement in a vertibird without the game crashing

It sucks because the 1 in 4 times things actually worked properly were peak gaming. Getting airdropped into the middle of a Super Mutant raid is genuinely very cool

[weak coyote]

There is a bug with the menu while not in the settlement.
It will show incorrect stats, go to the settlement open workshop mode, close it, then look at the stats in the pipboy, it will show the correct information when your at the settlement.

BTW... Robots make the settlement happiness only go to 50 max.

[royal rose]

I went jaw dropped to learn Shaun was 10 ish

[lilac saffron]

Mods disable achievements 😅

[weak coyote]

Your head is going to explode later

[austere epoch]

Question about legendary gear. I have dozens of armor pieces with effects like "30% chance to freeze/burn/disarm an opponent in melee". If I equip those on companions or settlers, will they work?

It would be kinda cool if a Super Mutant whacked Piper and suddenly caught on fire

[austere epoch]

The happiness went up to 18, so I think it might have legitimately dropped to zero earlier

Btw thanks for providing so many answers. It's much appreciated

[weak coyote]

Most legendary effects work on companions, aswell as clothing/armor modifications.
But not all.

And legendary effects/armor modifications stack

[austere epoch]

Yeah I'd assume anything that affects VATS is out for starters

I made Curie's chest armor Fortifying just because I had it available

[scenic canyon]

Hey guys, just beat Fallout 4 a couple days ago

Loved the game, really did, but like, what's up with the Institute? Idk if I just missed something, but why do they just kidnap random people and stuff

Idk if I'm stupid but I didn't quite catch their goal

[desert sky]

They kidnap people to do tests on them and to also replace them with their synths so they can claim some control over the wasteland, such as the mayor of diamond city

[mystic lion]

I think an inferred component is that similar to the Think Tank, 210 years of mostly isolation with a bend towards experimentation for not always the sake of advancement but sometimes just to experiment, ethics takes a back seat to "Oh so that's what'd happen. Alright, time to flush these super mutant test subjects to the surface and start over"

[austere epoch]

I have a settlement in the Glowing Sea, and it's amazing. Using this Abandoned Prydwyn mod. The main settlement location is Capsized Factory. Might send Marcy here

[urban parrot]

hey

can anyone help me with my game pls

[lean sand]

buying fo4 for PC (i played fo4 for ps4/5 since 2017 at least 20 times) just for modding is worth it?

but are mods actually worth it?

wait, do they cost?

right, thought they costed 'cause I knew a mod like set in California that costed 10€

but what are the main differences between console and PC mods?

[lean sand]

oh ok. btw, do you know if there are substantial differences between PS mods and PC mods? I mean, I don't want to buy a game I know better than my own house

[steady tundra]

PlayStation doesn't allow any external assets with mods. All you have to do is look at the recently-released Fallout: London to see what Fallout 4 mods on PC are capable of.
Fallout: London is a new total conversion mod for Fallout 4.

[solemn meadow]

Wait so you’re telling me the pip boy is the reason my game is having 0.5 frames per minute?

[edgy pollen]

i need help

fallout 4 keeps opening not fullscreen i need it to open 1920x1080

wait maybe not

[unkempt thicket]

Hi could anyone help me with the creation club option in my fallout 4 menu , I have linked my account and everything but still doesn’t show creation club option when I load the game , thank you

[austere epoch]

At some point I'm going to get a new PC. I really want to play Fallout London and Sim Settlements

[thorn summit]

I just got a brand new PC...and nothing I wanna play on it. lol

[austere epoch]

If I'd known I was going to get sick and end up playing like 200 hours of Fallout 4 over 2 months, I might have just started out by getting a PC

Instead I'm playing the least customizable version

After I finish up this playthrough I may come back to the PC version in a few months and just go ham with mods

[austere epoch]

Really wish Raider Power Armor didn't suck, because I love the design. The fact that I can't add a jet pack makes it a non-starter for regular use

[lean sand]

actually thinking about buying fo4 on PC just for playing fo London. but, is it worth it? I mean I know there is a consistent problem with crashes so idk

[magic current]

@urban sail hey seam to be having a issue with larsen im a distance away and targeting his fusion core but he just drops to his knees

[jagged salmon]

For some reason I keep getting the “operation could not be completed” when trying to open mod section from the main menu, what do I do?

[magic current]

somethin the mod authors gotta fix i belive

[lean jolt]

i just scrapped an entire ruined house

[austere epoch]

I keep trying and failing to save Kent in the Silver Shroud quest. I just can't kill Sinjin quickly enough. I did it on my first try a few weeks ago before the corrupted save thing, but this time Sinjin just no-sells a headshot and lights Kent up

Tried using Jet and also failed

[cyan trellis]

im i in the right spot to get help getting mods from web to pc to download ?

its dif from a few years ago

[weak coyote]

There has been no official word.

[austere epoch]

I love buying all of Cricket's best weapons and then selling her like 300 Jet to make up for it

[urban sail]

If shooting his fusion core out doesn't work you can also try pickpocketing it

[urban sail]

You can use a speech check to make them target you instead of Kent

[serene arch]

I use a gauss rifle with a critical hit banked so I can one shot him

[austere epoch]

Ended up doing something like that. It was a legendary plasma rifle instead, but I just went and got my highest DPS weapon that wasn't explosive. If I didn't one-shot him, Kent was dead no matter what

Didn't try any speech checks because I was determined to stay in character as the Shroud, lol

[flat wraith]

I spent an hour tryna save kent lol, if u save him he gives you an upgrade on your shroud costume
The speech check didn't work for me? Even when it was "successful" they still end up killing him

[broken siren]

What do we think of Fallout 4
I think it is an amazing game just a bit disappointing for RPG elements but still enjoyed it

I like the gunplay, exploration and the character/companions are some of the best in the series

[steady tundra]

I'm more of a swords 'n' sorcery than a pistols 'n' technology RPGer, but I'm warming up to Fallout 4 well enough. The exploration and captivating scenery are what's keeping me interested.

[proven elm]

Fallout 4 is my favorite game in the Fallout series.

[woeful niche]

Is it possible for me to create a new game without losing my game that has more than 100 hours?

[strong yacht]

you can play on a different account 😄

[austere epoch]

It's the least stable "AAA" game ever put out, and I'm genuinely shocked no one at Bethesda was too embarrassed to ship it in the state they did. Nintendo would delay a game five years before they released something that crashes every hour

Beneath all that there's one of the best games ever made

New Vegas definitely was a better RPG, but it also had you mostly running through an empty desert

[steady tundra]

I'm playing with a few choice mods but nothing crazy. All visual settings set at Ultra in BethINI. (BethINI settings are substantially above the in-game Ultra)
I've got 50+ hours into my current run - without a single crash.

[austere epoch]

Console versions are definitely not like that

[steady tundra]

Unless you are referring the the next-gen update.
Yeah, if you're on next-gen then, from what I've read, it's currently a mess. Hope they fix it soon.

[austere epoch]

🤞

Idk whether I liked FO3 or 4's world more. It's been a few years since I played 3. The Capital Wasteland was really good. NV is easily last in terms of world and exploration

[steady tundra]

I picked up FO3 GOTYE years ago, but couldn't get into it.

[austere epoch]

Are there mods that make FO4 into an actually good RPG? Like redo the dialogue and change up main story quests and whatnot?

[steady tundra]

Not sure. Haven't got into it much.
Survival mode definitely makes it more RPGish. I'm currently play a modified Survival.
But I wouldn't try Survival in next-gen until they get it stable.

[austere epoch]

I figure it would be pretty doable with a couple hours of new dialogue from voice actors who sound acceptably close to original Father and Nate/Nora and a few other characters

[austere epoch]

I'm well over 100 hours into doing exactly that, lol

I added a save mod like 10-15 hours in after I had to redo a quest 3x due to crashes. That was the first mod I installed

[steady tundra]

At least you've got a workaround until it's fully fixed.

[austere epoch]

You still get some absolutely soul crushing crashes, but yes, at least I can progress. I just have to watch out for corrupted saves, which idk how "the save file is corrupt" is even in the vocabulary of a console game. Most major studios would not ship something where that's even a possibility.

BGS is just built different I guess

[steady tundra]

With Beth being silent about next-gen updates for the last couple months, it must be something difficult to fix. Hope they get it soon.

[austere epoch]

Even with the mod, you only get 3 autosave and 1 regular save slots, so if those end up corrupt my playthrough is done

I might try to upload saves to cloud starting pretty soon

[steady tundra]

I'm not a fan of autosaves/quicksaves. I have all of those off. Sometimes I feel that they are part of the corruption issue.

[frozen acorn]

Hey uh I posted a vid of me farting in videos

[crude shale]

hey guys, im having an issue with f4, where i run the game in full screen but it opens as a window, has anyone had the same problem and/or knows of a solution?

[hallow fable]

oh i may knoww

i played f4 on ps5 but i had that same problem with a different game on pc

[crude shale]

im sure my settings are correct, but even if i do change the resolution and check or uncheck the boxes (windowed mode/ borderless), it's stuck at the same window, nothing changes. I redownloaded the game but its still the same.

[honest geode]

Sigma skibidi

[broken siren]

F4 doesn't crash for me anymore, lol

@austere epoch
After that update, very smooth and added a few mods
Very nice also FNV was way worse in terms of bugs and performance, lol

[hallow fable]

Ah that’s what I was gonna say check in settings if it’s in windowed mode 😂

[crude shale]

its ok man thanks for the attention ❤️

[austere epoch]

Are you also on PS5?

[broken siren]

On Xbox, he he

[weak coyote]

Yeah, just start a new game, saves aren't overwritten, each character has a separate set of saves that you can access from the load game option.

[weak coyote]

Compared to the ps4 version, ps5 version runs way better for me, rarely had any crashes or any other issues in 100 hour playthrough.

[elder robin]

you mean fallout 76 at launch?

[lilac saffron]

Me when lvl 9 being told I have to clear corvega in survival

[elder robin]

[lilac saffron]

I did bring the t45

Just I'm out of 5mm and a mini gun

GOD

[steady tundra]

I just did this with a stealth gunslinger VATS build. Think I was level 7 or 8. Wasn't too bad.
I circle the perimeter taking out all those peps first. Hoof it back to Sanctuary with the first haul of crap. Then go inside.

[lilac saffron]

Only mod that makes survival easier is stimpak and ammo weight reduction so I still can go guns blazing

If your talking about the website, sign out then back in.
If you mean the mod menu, the next Gen update screwed things up with it.

[fossil shoal]

I'm surprised that Fallout 4 still has the setting for the Pip-Boy app.

[weak coyote]

Isn't supported anymore

[elder robin]

I'll fight that sting wing any day of the week

[fossil shoal]

The app does still work if you already have it.

[weak coyote]

I do, it doesn't for me?

And everything I've read said it no longer works because they stopped support for it

[craggy vault]

What happened to mods on xbox

I can't even get into them now it keeps giving me an operation could not be preformed message

[coarse notch]

Hey all, got a question on supply lines. Since an NPC is physically moving along them, does that mean there is a real-time delay between getting resources between settlements?

[weak coyote]

If your talking about how resources are shared with connected settlements... No.

If you mean when you give a provisioner junk, that is then deposited at the settlement... No clue.

[weak coyote]

It's all screwy now because of the next Gen update, many players are experiencing this.

[urban sail]

No, they are shared immediately when you assign a settler as provisioner.

[coarse notch]

Yeah, I thought you could put items in the workbench and those items would be shared

Turns out that is not the case lol. It's only the resources used when building/crafting that get shared when you go into workshop mode itself

[mystic lion]

Food and water is also shared, although it won't make local NPCs complain any less if they don't have local production.

[coarse notch]

OK cool. Think I got it figured out now.

[magic current]

am i correct in this that liberty prime will survive and turn hostile if i shoot down the prydwen with the MM ?

[weak coyote]

Resources are also shared with connected settlements while using workbenches

[coarse notch]

What do you mean? Like weapon/armor mods and chems, etc?

[lilac saffron]

Yes the Chinese stealth armor was used during Anchorage I DONT NEED TO KNOW THIS every time I go in and out of diamond city

[weak coyote]

Yes

[lilac saffron]

Is there any good place to get early game aid loot i need some i keep dying cause i have no heal

[weak coyote]

Near Arcjet there is an unmarked irradiated location with a doctor, you will see a table with an umbrella, you can talk to her there, standing in the right spot you will take no/little radiation damage while talking to her.

[lilac saffron]

thanks

[weak coyote]

There is also a mod called doc drumlin, adds a doctor to drumlin diner, there are also vanilla merchants there... Complete a quest there a certain way, you can have a Chem dealer, plus a general vendor.

The Chemist perk allows you to craft stimpacks... On survival anyways.

[austere epoch]

Built a really awesome field hospital in one of my settlements that ended up being unusable because the doctor settler couldn't navigate to it even though the front was wide open. She kept trying to walk through the walls on the side. When I tried replacing that wall with a doorway she still wouldn't go in. I ended up turning that building into my player home, and the doctor now stands outside in the rain

It seems like the NPCs might have more issues with metal structures, because when I've tried building with metal, I've often ended up with pathing issues, whereas I rarely get that with wood or concrete or barn

[naive cliff]

Will the Chrome Pip-Boy Paint Job in the Creation Club be back? I'm unable to find that paint work.

I've been trying to get my Pip-Boy to look like the TV Series.

[austere epoch]

It would be really cool if, when I assign a settler to a guard post, they would just stay at that guard post instead of wandering around on a patrol. Being able to set a patrol route would be cool, but in general if I place someone somewhere, I'd like them to stay there. The way the game does it makes it really hard to keep track of who's who

The way guard posts are handled in general is dumb. If there are more posts than settlers assigned to defense, sure, let them patrol. But every guard post should create an assignable defense job in the population management console

[weak coyote]

Settlers assigned to stores will offer thier services no matter where they are standing, between 8am-8pm

[weak coyote]

They wander if there are multiple guard posts and it isn't assigned.
They will stay put if all guard posts have an assigned settler.

[austere epoch]

I really go for immersion though. It's why I built the field hospital to begin with. I didn't see any glaring reasons why the pathing shouldn't have worked. There was a very clear open route to the clinic stand. Sometimes it's just dumb.

[austere epoch]

Figured this. But then if you delete the extra guard post it just unemploys a guard, lol

[lilac saffron]

im getting ahold of this game and NOW its gettings fun!

@weak coyote

[flat wraith]

It took me way way to long to realise which button allowed me to pick up and move things

Now I can get rid of those corspes in my settlements..

[lilac saffron]

What button is that

[flat wraith]

Idk what it is on pc, I'll look it up for you

[lilac saffron]

Alr thanks

[flat wraith]

Hold down the E key

[lilac saffron]

Thanks fr bro

[weak coyote]

You have to delete the game data, then don't download the dlc when you reinstall the game.

This is usually caused by a mod that isn't compatible with the dlc.
Otherwise, there are certain areas you can't go that way near the train station, try starting from the freeway and go directly towards the station.

[flat wraith]

If I capture a creature in a cage is it aggressive? And do they stay at your settlement?
I want animals for my settlement but idk how to get them, Especially the cats

[weak coyote]

You mean delete the game and reinstall game & dlc?
Or was it a mod that was the issue?

Please clarify so others can learn a fix

[weak coyote]

Build a cage and a beta wave thingy to make captured creatures tame... Animals like dogs and cats will be naturally tame, but wasteland creatures that are normally hostile will be so upon opening the cage without a beta wave emitter.

[flat wraith]

Is there a range on the beta wave emitter?

And if I capture one in the cage and release it, they won't run off?

[flat wraith]

Love it when fallout 4 crashes and decides all your saves are well obsolete !

But they aren't actually so it's just a silly little mini heart attack

[lilac saffron]

Wait till blud gets mods

[trail schooner]

is the makeshift weapons pack for xbox fixed yet?

[magic current]

yeah just give the game a cheeky restart and its fine @flat wraith
@trail schooner yeah the giant red ! are gone and the models are actually showing now

[flat wraith]

Yeah but the game loves giving me slight panics when I crash and I open up and "save obsolete" lol, I lost over an hour of playtime tho so ouch! Need to remember fo4 doesn't auto save like fo76

[magic current]

the only one that acutally seams to matter is the corrupt one

[flat wraith]

oh I've restarted hours of playtime so many times because of the save being obsolete

Welp, also does anyone know how to do "pants exploded" on fallout 4? I place a grenade or mine in someone's inventory but they don't explode, do I need a perk for it or something

[mystic lion]

You need the second level of Pickpocket.

[austere epoch]

After like 200 hours and 99 levels, I finally went to Nuka World. Almost died a couple times in the gauntlet, mostly the room packed with like 10 Mk7 turrets

If I ever do another playthrough I'm going to try to come here before joining the Minutemen so I can do the whole raider settlement thing. I don't think I'll be doing that this time around. Too much work went into all my settlements, and my character wouldn't do it

[magic current]

So i have the BOS fully built up so if i kill them will liberty prime turn hostile or is there a way to kill them with the MM?

[austere epoch]

I feel like I miss 90% shots in this game way more than 10% of the time

Or I'll have instances like missing 3 consecutive 70% shots, which statistically should happen 2.7% of the time, but I'm pretty sure it's way more frequent

[austere epoch]

What's your particular reason for this? I hate him because after I maxed his affinity with the friendship route, he kept giving me the romance flag every time I passed within 20 yards of him

I'm running out of settlement space, but I've gotten really into using settler cages through a mod. I only have one settlement left with fewer than 20 people 🙁

Really wish I could safely go up to low 30s everywhere, but only The Castle and a couple others seem to be able to handle that. I had to do a massive culling once because a lot of places become really crash-prone once the population goes above 25 or so

I sent like 20 people to an unpopulated settlement and killed them all. Not my finest moment

[austere epoch]

So pretty much the same, lol

[lilac saffron]

how do i make the my fps the best

is there a map out there for artilery range?

[weak coyote]

Yeah, Google it, I found multiple examples

I've had this bug multiple times, never found a fix, even reloading a previous save hours earlier the bug happened again, it seems to be bugged from the start of the game if you experienced it... All you can do is start over.

[lilac saffron]

So I was manufacturing 556 and instead of s 500 pb and 250 fertilizer I put 2000 pb and 1000 fertilizer I have over 5000 5.56 rounds and the machines are still going I went from one to two ammo plants 2 more are one the way

[austere epoch]

I still need to try out manufacturing. I like how you used the periodic symbol for lead btw

[lilac saffron]

Thanks I just didn't want to type lead

[austere epoch]

Anyone have any good uses for logic gates?

[lilac saffron]

Doors ig

Since I have a mod that replaces the laser musket with the service rifle the minute men will never have to worry about ammo with all the 5.56 I've made

Bro now every time it tur s 7
:01 if I look at the sun I get static

I'll take a picture and send it to someone if they want to help

[austere epoch]

I use all my money and resources arming my settlers. There are no pipe pistols allowed in my settlements. Advanced receivers only

[lilac saffron]

Guys my sun is missing

Yall is my 17hr survival run cooked

Wait it's fixed I think

NOPE ITS NOT every time Iook at the sun it breaks

[austere epoch]

I'd kind of like to use a mortal settlers mod if not for the fact that my settlers will always leave the impregnable defensive perimeter I've built to go engage Gunners in an open field

[austere epoch]

That is a really weird glitch. Are you using a weather mod?

[weak coyote]

If you can restart the dlc somehow, try it, see if the bug happens again.
But yeah, you have to restart the entire game and hope the bug doesn't happen again. Never found a fix.

[lilac saffron]

True storms

And 76 weather's

Uhh that didn't fix it

[flat wraith]

Thank youu I got level 1 but I didn't know I needed 2 levels

[lilac saffron]

Bro my 17hr survival save is cooked

[flat wraith]

Oooh thank you! Time to get some pet deathclaws 😁

[lilac saffron]

THIS GAME I had to reload fo4 without 76 and true storms and it's fixed my god

My game went from staring at a mininuke dark to fo76 beauty because I reloaded fo4

[lilac saffron]

Bro I'm bouta have over 10k 5.56 I'm gonna be RICH

But note to self don't put 2000 pb and 1000 fertilizer in again

[mortal monolith]

Does Anybody know where to find the Gray Lingerie in fallout 4

I found it on my first playthrough but can't find it on the second run

[weak coyote]

You should always exit completely and restart the game every time you install a mod.

[weak coyote]

Sounds like a mod... What lingerie!?

[mortal monolith]

Gray Lingerie, it was in the base game cause u found it before I started adding mods

[mortal monolith]

It's suppose to be near Swans Pond

[austere epoch]

I am once again cursing myself for getting the PS5 version when I own a Series X. I had no idea about the Sony mod policy until it was too late

Someday I'll do a PC playthrough and just go ham

[weak coyote]

Show me grey lingerie.

https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout_4_armor_and_clothing

[mortal monolith]

I can't find it on my second play through which is why I came to ask about it

[weak coyote]

It doesn't exist in vanilla

[lilac saffron]

Bro that happened when i as 17hrs into my save

[weak coyote]

I mean exit game completely, reload, every time you install a new mod

[flat wraith]

Where does one find softshell mirelurks I require a cat at my settlement

[lilac saffron]

Castle

[flat wraith]

Oh yeah, everytime there's an attack there is the enemy mirelurk? Cuz I have a mission to defend the castle but haven't placed defences yet

[mortal monolith]

I originally read about it from a Dead Fallout Forum (https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/164593-fallout-4/73816811).

When I finally downloaded the game I found it in the area it said it would be but when I went back around for my second playthrough I couldn't find it.

[supple forge]

Hey anyone on Xbox that can help with daily’s

[weak coyote]

That's a mod

[mortal monolith]

The ballistic weave thing was a mod but the gray lingerie was definitely in the game

[weak coyote]

How did you fix it?

[rustic pebble]

is fallout 4 gonna recieve another update or nah

[austere epoch]

I already got two affinity speeches with Hancock in a couple hours just doing random side stuff and killing lots of raiders and taking Jet in every fight

What a great companion. Low carry weight though

[magic current]

the hell is up with my legendary drop rate my BOS character keeps getting stuff that would be useful for my institute character XD

[craggy vault]

So when are they going to fix the mod issue on xbox because I'm getting annoyed that I can't play my playthrough cause I can't re-enable my mods cause it won't even load the mods without an operation could not be preformed message

[lilac saffron]

Opinion legendary drops suck

[lilac saffron]

I DID IT AGAIN i wanted 300 .44 and I ended up making 1000

[mystic lion]

I've done that, flipped the switch on my ammo press and then started building and come back to a pile of freedom deliverers.

[subtle owl]

Yall i need help with reaching 100 happiness in a large settlement how do i do it

[visual ice]

is virtual workshop good

[rustic pebble]

Im wonderin bc some ppl wont update mods until anither one drops

[lilac saffron]

How do i place down power armor parts that are in my inventory

[austere epoch]

5 cats and one robot will apparently do it

[subtle owl]

Either interact with the par armor and then click on the parts or on a par armor station do the same thing

[subtle owl]

And how can i get 5 cats and a robot

Does it require a dlc or sum

[austere epoch]

Cat cages and a robot workbench. Do you have Automatron?

You'll need softshell mirelurk meat for the cats

I think this is the formula. I read an old Gamefaqs thread on it a few weeks ago. Maybe double check

[subtle owl]

Im not sure if automatron is available on PS5

Well it is but its the ps4 version not sure if i can run it on my ps5 main game

[waxen pebble]

I've seen the same dilemma. But, Bethesda isn't going to give a straight answer, or any answer at all. They'll just refer you to the #fallout-announcements thread.

[lilac saffron]

Thanks

I'm trying to get more artillery I check on my settlements hangmans alley has 10 people

It's so cramped I can't even place stuff sometimes

[languid dagger]

what should i do if piper wants to kill me and i didnt do anything to her ?

[subtle owl]

Idk load a previous save ig. Im the type of guy who always before entering a building or starting a dialogue quicksave just in case

[languid dagger]

but it is in the camp she is already a companion

[snow rune]

:Kitten_Happy:

[lilac saffron]

Bro one of my settlers kept going from the trading store to farm so i shot him resigned him to farming

[subtle owl]

Does anyone know why everytime i enter the castle half of the minutemen leave it?

[lilac saffron]

Reload game

[mystic lion]

They're a generically spawning patrol.

[weak coyote]

Any settlement will work, and you can reach 100 happiness with 1 or 2 settlers.
Assign a settler as a doctor on the highest tier shop. Capture animals that add happiness, build multiple objects that add happiness like the gym equipment, etc.
Build water and defense, and beds, assign the second settler to food for both settlers.
Do not have a supply line.
No robots.

[weak coyote]

The "drop" button

[weak coyote]

Robots make your happiness so it won't go above 50

[lilac saffron]

nice thanks bro

[weak coyote]

There are now ps5 versions of each dlc

[weak coyote]

Do you mean you want to drop it out your inventory onto the ground, or put it on a frame, or put it into storage?

[lilac saffron]

like put it out for display

[weak coyote]

That doesn't help...
Put it on a shelf or something or frame?

[lilac saffron]

frame

Transfer it into the frame

[weak coyote]

OK, same as if you put stuff into storage.
Just select the frame open it's inventory, select the armor piece, trade it into the frame, equip it on the frame same as if you were equipping armor/clothing onto a character.
Then you can use a power armor workbench to place the power armor into for display or a power armor display you can build.

[lilac saffron]

thanks

[subtle owl]

Its unavailable

[fathom plover]

I've cancelled my game pass subscription until Bethesda fixes FO4. Game stutters, mods keep disappearing, favorites don't work and half the time I can't even access mods.. I encourage others to do the same. Maybe a financial hit will motivate them.

[round rampart]

Not gonna happen brother

[lilac saffron]

New idea buy fo4 instead of paying a monthly subscription

[torpid girder]

Alguno que hable español?

Creo que hice mal al aceptar la invitación a unirme al instituto y ahora no se salir

I was just going off this: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/164592-fallout-4/73724697#:~:text=3)%20Make%205%20cat%20cages,from%2050%25%20to%20100%25.

I personally am not going for it as I can't get achievements due to mods. My highest settlement happiness is low 90 at Roadside Pines Motel

Also the game glitches a lot and shows 0 beds or like 50 settlers, and the happiness level starts plummeting, so I figured it's not even worth worrying about

[weak coyote]

They are mistaken, robots lock happiness at 50.
But I see it's a bug exploit.

[weak coyote]

Yeah there is a bug with the stats when viewing them outside the settlement.
Just go to the settlement, open the build workshop, close it, then look at the stats on the pipboy, it should show correct values.

[fathom plover]

I bought the game on release, along with Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim twice, FO3, FONV when they came out. They botched the Skyrim update and did it again on F04. I think people have a right to be pissed when you spend the bucks on a game and Beth screws it up.

[weak coyote]

So canceling game pass does nothing, they already got your money.

You absolutely have a right to be angry at a defective product, you wouldn't tolerate it anywhere else.

What makes it worse is they say nothing, so it comes across like they don't care.
Leaving people in the dark to speculate only makes them see you in a bad light.
They could at the very least say they are working on another patch.
Doesn't exactly make me want to give them money for the next Fallout or anything else they are associated with.

[fathom plover]

If enough people cancel game pass I'm sure someone in the accounts dept would notice the drop in revenue. Last I heard Bud Light wasn't doing so well.

[austere epoch]

I would need to know FO5 doesn't have major performance issues before paying money for it at this point. Whereas I bought FO4 on launch day in 2015

[weak coyote]

It will if they keep using the same terribly flawed engine.

[knotty granite]

How do you get the Summerville settlement quest to pop up I still haven't gotten it

[flat wraith]

I think Preston should give you it?

You're telling me the sole survivor carry hold 180lb dungbell, and mirelurk corspes but he can't carry a wild mongrel corspe?

This is pure Tomfoolery I can't hold a specific mongrel corspe

[lilac saffron]

Guys the one settler who went to farming even though was a trader is now hanging by the bar and not farm so I reasinged him shot him this time

That's what blud gets for not doing his job

[flat wraith]

I hate when they refuse to do their job

[wide badger]

Yeah I have been considering it. Bethesda games are the only games I really play so not being able to play FO4 gets old.

[blazing pike]

I thought the same with Sony until I realized I was the only one willing to not give them money to change. So why bother.

[late nimbus]

I'm stuck in the chair in Vault 81's clinic and I can't get out for some reason.

[lilac saffron]

Bro if the conservatives discover fallout ww3 starts

[lilac saffron]

Ngl some of the fo4 cars being laughably unless real world look fire to own and drive

[rough crane]

Hello my new customers

[ashen ore]

Honestly what are you talking about

[hollow ermine]

the update made the game unstable on ps4 any solution?
at least what i tested with an old save

[weak coyote]

All my ps4 friends say it's worse.
For me, the ps5 version ran great for about a 100 hour playthrough. No mods.
But I did experience the same bugs I did on ps4, nothing was patched, it is just a port to ps5.

[weak coyote]

Only thing you can really do is play on ps4 pro with the additional performance options.
Or
Use mods that disable God rays, lens flare and reduced grass.
Aswell as the unofficial patch mod

[hollow ermine]

first solution is really bad

i mean now t crash randomly

[knotty granite]

I wish we could send companions to the cc houses you buy

[covert stag]

Does anyone know of a mod that allows to pick up and scrap an item you're looking at in the world, as in instead of pressing E to pick up a desk fan, press R to pick up 2 screws, 2 steel, 1 cog.

can someone help me it wont start a new game i have 70 mods

[carmine sphinx]

Alguien de España juega en Xbox a f4??

[silk oriole]

pc

[flat wraith]

With the beta wave emitter does it make wasteland creatures non aggressive towards other creatures in your settlements such as dogs and some others? Because I heard deathclaws kill dogs but they haven't touched my dogs yet?
With the caged creatures

[devout hill]

Yo

[silk oriole]

yo are you able to help me it wont start a new game

[loud hull]

Alguem pode me ajudar estou tendo um problema os geradores de água não estão gerando água não vai a oficina já os tirei e os cologuei desliguei os geradore e não sei o que fazer mais alguém sabe de algo?

Can anyone help me, I'm having a problem, the water generators aren't generating water, they won't go to the workshop, I've already removed them and put them back in, turned off the generators and I don't know what to do, does anyone else know anything?

[rapid whale]

does anyone know if updating your pc from windows 10 to windows 11 will screw up your games and installed mods?

[austere epoch]

They won't attack junkyard dogs, but if you get something like a glowing feral mutt in your dog cage, the Deathclaw will kill it

[knotty granite]

Good news I found a mod let makes the noir penthouse a settlement and it looks sick with the companions all chilling there

Only problem is they don't know how to get their if you send them there you have to take them there then dismiss them there

[dry bluff]

Depends on the install methodology. An in-place update "Should...." keep your files intact, but it is always advisable to do a full back-up beforehand as things can go wrong. Custom install will wipe your files. I've done update installs before, and it's kept everything. I've also done them, and it's screwed up my whole system. Nowadays, I have all my game stuff on seperate drives. My windows install is on a drive all on its own - less chance of any installation issues.

[steady tundra]

Are there any long-term implications to ignoring the needs/happiness of settlements? I want to focus on the MQ, faction Qs, killing raiders/monsters and exploring - not taking care of sniveling little you-know-whats.
However, I do want to have the best possible ending, so I need to advance the minutemen. I don't care about losing settlements due to happiness as I can always go do a quest to get them back, right?

[austere epoch]

I'm pretty sure they have to get all the way to 0 for that to happen. It's pretty tough to do actually

As long as you build the basic necessities at the start, they should hover in the 60s with no intervention

[devout hill]

Restart
If it didn't work debug it
If that didn't work delete and reinstall

[silk oriole]

how i debug

[steady tundra]

What about those beds with penalty (because they're considered outside) in Abernathy?
Even when I console them out, build 3 more beds, and wait a few days, their happiness doesn't go up.
Any ideas how to fix?

[rain osprey]

Anyone got any good ps4 mods? Real bummer i cant get any cool guns like pc players 💔 im looking for weapon, armour, and power armour mods

[steady tundra]

Playstation/Sony doesn't allow external assets in mods. PS4 mods are VERY limited unfortunately.

[proven elm]

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

[woven heart]

So, uh, do we have news on any update to fix the update ?

[flat wraith]

Ooh okay thanks 👍

I wanted to get a king mirelurk but I'd assume the deathclaws would kill it lol

[austere epoch]

I didn't even know that was a thing, lol

[flat wraith]

If the bed is not sheltered they won't be too happy

[steady tundra]

The ones at Abernathy are inside. It's just a bug.

[flat wraith]

That sucks

Is it possible to find x6 88 if you blew up without evacuation?
I never knew I could of evacuated them, can I still find him

[waxen pebble]

Nope.

[inland nymph]

Fallout should just ask the people who made the Enclave Oil Rig mod and story to make it a DLC

[magic current]

an area loot mechanic in fallout 4 would be wonderful

especially on xbox XD

[silk oriole]

whould be fun

[flat wraith]

Why do all my deathclaws in my settlement stand ar the door of the gym all day and night ? 😟

[flat wraith]

Jeez fo4 crashes way too often

[raw epoch]

Yeah that's fo4 for you

[flat wraith]

It's crashed like 10 times in the past 30-60 minutes gotta quicksave every minute at this point lol
Wasn't this bad with crashing couple weeks ago

[covert stag]

Same playthrough?

[flat wraith]

Yeah

[raw epoch]

man that's worse than nv

[flat wraith]

It's crazy, please just let me play 😧

[carmine sphinx]

Alguien juega en Xbox en España?

[raw epoch]

English pls?

[lilac saffron]

"someone plays xbox in spain?"

[silk oriole]

like i translatet it i was confused

[austere epoch]

I've had it like this at times. It seems to really depend on where I am on the map. The Glowing Sea doesn't crash at all for me. Parts of central Boston could crash every 5-10 minutes. I have at least one broken settlement (Jamaica Plain) that will usually crash if I go there and also has a high probability of saves there being corrupt. Game is still kinda broken tbh

[silk oriole]

i just force started the brotherhood

[flat wraith]

Yeah it was mostly the central of Boston where it happens it's annoying im trying to find certain stuff for my settlement but it crashes and I lose the items

[silk oriole]

i have the brothehood but i havent killed kellog

[raw epoch]

I don't like the brotherhood, but I do like arthur maxson

In 4 he's hardly a adult, poor mf

[flat wraith]

They're a bit to cruel lol, they don't ask you to evacuate the institution despite there being children inside, and they choose to save the one child who was a synth? Ironic much.

[raw epoch]

I do agree on that, but the same argument could be said for any other ending that kills the brotherhood, given there is children on the prydwen too

That said, I can't hate arthur maxson, he isn't much older than me, and at my age (16) he became high elder of the brotherhood, and BoS spoilers ahead ||when given the chance to spare danse due to him being a synth, arthur maxson shows, by allowing us to spare him, that despite his growing up, he does have his own second guesses||

[pseudo fog]

Why do you dislike the BoS?

[raw epoch]

Itinerary of different reasons, the general idea of it, the cultesuqe behaviour (like the west coast, branding and all), the speciest thing, I'm much more aligned to the raider lifestyle, I'd rather die with guilt than die shackled in steel :3

Tho, to quote porter gage, I wouldn't mind getting ahold of some of their stuff

[pseudo fog]

Fair if you disagree with the BoS for trying to control dangerous tech and being opposed to super mutants and all that...

But being more aligned to kidnapping, murdering, and extorting people? Really?

[raw epoch]

As if the brotherhood doesn't do such? In 4 we see almost all of that, except maybe the kidnapping, there have been several occasions where the brotherhood has killed for no reason, an example being acadia, and the extortion part is something teagan gets you to do, and your probably not the only one who does so

To quote gage again, the brotherhood are just a bunch of glorified raiders

[pseudo fog]

They had a reason with Acadia - the Synth presence there. Synths which are technology gone too far.

Teagan asks you to get food. The extortion is something that you, as the PC, do. The Brotherhood members are stated to be pretty good for the economy when you speak to the traders in Diamond City. You can pay the farmers, persuade them, or extort them. If you do the latter, that is on you.

That aside, Teagan himself states how he is upset about how everyone is so obsessed with the rules, also stating how the quest both is and isn't official business.

Gage is literally the second in command of a raider alliance that keeps slaves, mutilates victims and arranges fight clubs. Gage saying something does not make it so.

[raw epoch]

But shouldn't synths have the right to live by themselves? That is what the goal of acadia was, the only one who maybe should've died was DiMA, the rest of the synths are just innocents

[pseudo fog]

Synths are an affront to nature. Even at Acadia spoiler: ||they have replaced Avery, and intend to do the same with Tektus.||

Synths are technology gone too far.

[flat wraith]

Ok but they're a bit too obsessed with stealing forcefully from settlements with "pre war tech" aka a toaster 😂

I dont think I'll ever understand the brotherhood of steel

[raw epoch]

Even then, the synths up in acadia have helped the harbourmen, by providing the people the fog condensers, they've helped countless folk, and by killing the acadian synths, you have effectively managed to kill the whole island, on the basis that the acadians are the only people who know how to make the fog condensers and repair them, specifically Faraday and DiMA are the two who know how to make and repair them

[raw epoch]

I believe what DiMA did wasn't right, but understandable, I would of done the same thing if I could, He was desperate, he cared for the synths, the harbour men and the children of atom, and it was a necessary evil on his part

[pseudo fog]

They could also have helped the harbormen by blowing up the Nucleus. Win/win. Harbormen are rid of those mad cultists, mad cultists get their salvation.

[raw epoch]

But DiMA does care for the children, and he does not wish for their death, and even if we as the MC do not believe in the religion of atom, we have no right to judge on their beliefs

[pseudo fog]

Also, I somewhat doubt the fog condensers couldn't be reverse-engineered. 🤷‍♂️

[raw epoch]

And the whole "synth ≠ human" debate is silly, cause what constitutes a human being?

[pseudo fog]

That cult wants to meet Atom by being blown up. You can even get Tektus to go along with it.

[flat wraith]

You've been playing new vegas for a whole day straight? 😧

[raw epoch]

Yes. I haven't slept in a bit

[flat wraith]

Sorry im so off topic but how the hell have you not crashed or rage quit

[pseudo fog]

There's quite a lot stating how synths are different from humans, actually.

[raw epoch]

✨diagnosed autism✨ and playing on a machine from said time (for legal reasons)

[flat wraith]

Oh I like most of the fallout games but new vegas oh boy that game must hate me its so unbearable I've been stuck playing fo76 and fo4 but now fo4 crashes every 15 or so minutes 😓

[raw epoch]

Nah, stability mods are good for that

[flat wraith]

The older games have nice story's but the gameplay has me in utter tears if I get jumped by another cazador I might lose it 😂

[raw epoch]

That being? One example a lot of folk say is thr fact they weren't born from a womb or mother, when infact, quite a few people aren't born from a mother or a womb, examples being trans men and In vitro fertilization babies

[raw epoch]

That's why I spam vats out of pure paranoia

[flat wraith]

Sometimes I just sit in vats because I know I'm doomed so I just sit there and reflect

[raw epoch]

Yeah I do the same, sit and just contemplate

[flat wraith]

Why why did I take this path?

[raw epoch]

When doing nukaworld that's all I thought

Why am I doing this? Do I enjoy going insane? AND THESE DAMM CAVE CRICKETS.

[pseudo fog]

Several.

1. Synths aren't born at all. They aren't like test tube babies, they're assembled. Every bone, every gut, every muscle comes from a premade inventory.
2. Synths are infertile.
3. Synths do not grow.
4. Synths do not need to eat or sleep in order to function.
5. Synths do not gain fat. (McDonough being the exception, being purposefully designed as such).
6. Synth brains are stated to be different from human ones.
7. Synths get their personalities from personality matrixes.
8. Synths operate off of highly advanced self aware AI (which can malfunction and cause the synth to think it is alive).
9. Synths operate off of hard- and software, which gets upgrades and patches.
10. Synths can be turned offline or terminated by merely uttering a phrase.

Those are the ones I know of from the top of my head.

[flat wraith]

I just love being jumped by absolute ammo sponges, it's so hard to find ammo in fo4 omg

[pseudo fog]

Imo melee combat kinda sucks in FO4. Especially two handed.

[raw epoch]

To be fair, I am biased, I am a synth kisser

[raw epoch]

Quite a few of those only apply to gen 1 and 2, those being the eat and sleep issue, gen 3 do infact, need to consume substance, as for the growing part, we are unsure of how synths grow, my current theory is that they're like super mutants or ghouls where they do infact age, just a lot slower, and we don't really know how synths age, given they're really a new thing in the commonwealth and capital wasteland, and the infertile part is silly, not every human being is fertile, and in fallout, the brain functions completely different to us, given we can literally flirt with it in new vegas, and, humans also cam be programmed in fallout aswell

And other thing the brotherhood doesn't like are ghouls, who essentially are just burn victims

And, synths do infact, have reproductive organs

[flat wraith]

Yeah man ghouls are cool exept feral ones but I still don't know why the brotherhood is so aggressive towards anything that isn't pure human, like they wanted me to kill danse who was loyal to the brotherhood and had no clue he was a synth

[raw epoch]

I love ghouls sm

Especially hancock and kent Connelly, those men can get it

[pseudo fog]

Gen3 synths do not need to eat nor sleep. We learn this in the FO3 game guide and this is later reinforced in FO4 with Max Loken. There's a difference between eating and sleeping and needing to eat or sleep.

Synths do not grow. Janet Thompson in FO4 states how she has problems with child synth Shaun, stating how he will never grow up and be a kid forever.

Infertility in humanity is an abnormality from the rule. Infertility in synths is the norm. Human infertility does not prove humans as a being are infertile, we would not exist if this were so.

Doctor Amari in FO4 tells us how a human brain would not know what to do with Curie's programming, but that a synth brain would.

[flat wraith]

I like some not all, yeah I'm looking at you THE ghoul.. 😒

[raw epoch]

Oh I love that man even more, he's such a interesting character

[flat wraith]

I want character development then MAYBE I'll like him

[raw epoch]

While I am saying that morally I don't agree with the brotherhood, I do find them hella interesting, I'm doing a paper at my college on them, and the interesting social aspect of their presence in the commonwealth

[raw epoch]

I just love evil yeehaw men

Porter gage, the ghoul, micah bell, all very interesting characters, I actually sympathise with gage

[flat wraith]

He could've been so cool but he's just abusive at this point lol

[raw epoch]

I'm the person who loves most characters despite their actions, cause, at the end of the day, they're purely fictional

[flat wraith]

So, you just like the design

[raw epoch]

I like their writing

[flat wraith]

But that includes their actions, no?

[raw epoch]

Like gage for example, he left home at 12 (literally me) and struggled to find his own life and identity, realising that if he ever wants to not be afraid he's gonna have to become the thing that he hated, a raider, and in his first gang, as a teenager, he Almost got killed by his own leader, who was worried he was gonna take over, he then gained the wonderful talent of ✨not trusting literally anyone and probably sleeping with a gun under his pillow✨

[raw epoch]

I like their backstory and how that affects their actions, the ghoul was betrayed by someone he loved, and that affects his actions in the show and his whole distain of vault tec

I love hyperanalyzing stuff late at night

[flat wraith]

Uh huh

[raw epoch]
