Breaking bad

[naive cliff]

Which probably won't happen.

[prisma crescent]

I’m not sure how much it is to get the next gen version on Xbox but I have it on Ps5 and it runs great. Faster load time and better graphics. If you’re tight on cash I’d say just use the one you got on your PS4 but if it’s not like 50$, I’d say get the upgrade

[prisma crescent]

PS4 version is still really good considering it came out like a decade ago

[raw hedge]

Thank u

[prisma crescent]

Np 🙂

[jolly geyser]

Umm isn't the upgrade free if you already own the digital version of the game?

[prisma crescent]

Yea I think for PlayStation it is, but if I understood correctly @raw hedge only has a PS4 and doesn’t even own it on his Xbox

[lilac saffron]

Why

[full mango]

This is the Fallout 4 chat. Please post in the proper channels

[lilac saffron]

Fine I also wanna get into the vault 71 unlike the salesman

[subtle owl]

In the creation club theres the Gunners vs MM mod where i can take Quincy. Is it worth it?

[raw hedge]

Yes this is correct. I have the ps4 version but switched to xBox because of starfield.

So is it worth purchasing again on xbox series x? Are the graohics and new quests that good?

[prisma crescent]

Like I said, if you’re willing to drop 40-50$ on the game again just for the better graphics it is. I definitely have. But like I also said, the ps4 version is perfectly fine if you’re on a budget

[prisma crescent]

And you can also wait until it goes on sale, that’s what I did when I switched from pc to ps5

[raw hedge]

That was my original thought was to wait for sale during holiday season. Just wanted opinion on the new version and if it is that much of an upgrade.

Thank you!

[lilac saffron]

There is even fallout show what does that means

Qled is just the beginning fallout franchise is a long time commitment

[prisma crescent]

Anytime my man :)

[odd shoal]

I wonder if they’ll update the cc mods system at some point

[regal vine]

hello everyone

[austere epoch]

It's a fun battle, but you don't really get to "take" Quincy. The Gunners will respawn, and the battle plays out over and over again. On console with the next gen update it's pretty resource intensive due to the large number of NPCs, so Quincy just crashes for me a lot with that content. A really fun battle though if you can get through it. I pretty much have to save scum since it's almost guaranteed at least one crash on my system

I can't believe I have to type out a paragraph like that about something from a AAA developer and not some indie game a guy programmed in his garage

[subtle owl]

For me its been quite a while i slept a lot and they still havent respawnes

[austere epoch]

It's not like daily. But if Quincy is a place you just occasionally pass through, the battle will usually be going on.

I think the named bosses don't respawn. Tessa and someone else. But there will be a Gunner commander in power armor every time

[lilac saffron]

Is game still on sale

👁️👁️

[waxen pebble]

Other named boss is Clint and they never respawn. Vanilla Gunners will continue to respawn. The Creation doesn't change that. I believe the Minutemen in the Creation are flagged as essential, or protected. The Gunners are not. You can guess who wins every time from then on.

[lilac saffron]

Aha no more temptation

[rigid bay]

They won't. Modders can tell you why, but I don't really understand it. What I understand is they'd have to wipe everyone's mod list to do it, and that sounds like a low price to pay to get the 100GB they allow for Starfield. But modders say it's not actually that easy. I trust their wisdom even if I don't understand the reasoning.

Shame we can't just get a second version of Fallout 4 that doesn't have the next-gen update and supports 100GB worth of mods so we can install Fallout London and all the Sim Settlements 2 stuff (not on the same save). Sure, people would have to re-buy it, but it would be a compromise a lot of people would be willing to make, and how hard would it really be for Beth-Xbox-esda to make a duplication of a game they already own?

I mean, Fallout 4 GOTY goes on sale for $10 all the time. Can I get a show of hands of people who would be willing to pay $10 for a solid, working Fallout 4 that supports all the mods? Don't even have achievements for it, even playing vanilla.

[main chasm]

Did the anniversary edition fallout 4 fix the hangman’s alley pathing bugs?

[jolly geyser]

Is it more cost effective to craft ammo rather than buy it in fallout 4?

[steady tundra]

I haven't gotten that far, but it requires an INT of 6 and the Science perk to build the ammo plant.
From what I've heard, putting 2-3 ranks in Scrounger usually gives you enough.

[weak coyote]

No need to spend more than 20$ on goty version, it's always on sale.

[weak coyote]

Nothing was fixed, it's just a port of the original game, I experienced all the same bugs on ps5 that were present on ps4 version.

[weak coyote]

Buy, you can trade weapons and ammo you loot that you won't use, to a vendor... Resources are scarce compared to how much weapons and ammo you can loot.

[austere epoch]

Aside from adhesive and aluminum, resources are pretty meaningless to me at this point

And if I weren't customizing all my settlers and building a power armor museum, I wouldn't care about resources at all

[odd shoal]

Just get aluminum cans and get scrapper up and you can up to 3-4 aluminum per can

[rancid hound]

Has anyone had any difficulties with the creation club on Xbox? It doesn't work for me and I want to access the extra stuff, however, there's no issue with me accessing creation club on Skyrim so I'm unsure what the issue is

[magic current]

seams fine on my end @rancid hound try a full restart of your xbox

[rancid hound]

Thanks for the reply, I've had the game for a few weeks however everytime I log in the option is always grayed out. I logged in on my dad's account on accident and for some reason his account can access it

[waxen atlas]

Does anyone know if there's a guide on how to level up. I'm quite confused. Can see you pick stats to begin with. Then get points. And each one is up to like 10 stars.

Do I need to max all this before I can unlock the next row? I'm somewhat confused. Cause from watching YT videos people have like 15 rows open and don't have the first row maxed out.

[subtle owl]

I need help with the trophy Benevolent leader, i just cant get my settlement happiness past 82

[jolly geyser]

So the stats you assign at level 1, each point you assign gets you access to the perk at that level. For example, taking a Strength of four gives you access to all the strength perks from 1-4. You can increase your SPECIAL at any time but be aware if you pump too many points in there, you can become underpowered as most of your build comes from perks. Like gunslinger or rifleman.

[jolly geyser]

If you got the vault tec DLC, there is a simple one Settler build you can do at Red Rocket that will cheese that achievement it just takes time to unlock. Look up Benevolent Leader single settler on YouTube and you should find a guide. Please note, this requires the settlement you make to not be connected to a caravan network.

[subtle owl]

Is there any faster way?

[jolly geyser]

No sadly that is the fastest way. The game refreshed the happiness meter every 20 minutes, so three times an hour and the gains are never more than 5 at a time, and get less the closer you are to 100

I want to say it took me three irl days after set up to unlock the achievement

[flat wraith]

I highly suggest you read this
https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Happiness_(Fallout_4)

I have sanctuary at 100% happiness and it almost never drops, and I have 17 settlers in the settlement

I love my people I spoil them so much (my other settlements surviving with the bare necessities)

Dlcs are extremely helpful in getting the achievement since most items that produce happiness are from vault tec dlc and the cages, cats, junkyard dogs, produce 10 happiness, gorrilas produce 20 happiness

But shops are very very helpful aswell, especially bars and clinics at tier 3

[waxen atlas]

Thanks, I'll need to read it more cause I don't understand how the mechanics of the game really work in truth. I've been stuck living in the small town cause when I venture out just about anything I encounter can kill me in no time at all it's incredibly frustrating lol

[jolly geyser]

There are build guides that can tell you how to assign special points and what perks to take in order. But if you want to just play on your own, I suggest to:

1. research the special stats and their oerks

2. Pick which weapon type you want to use (IE, melee, rifles, pistols, ect)

3. Use your first perk point to grab the perk for that weapon type. Should help you kill some foes.

[waxen atlas]

Yeah I'm just finding it really hard, like unloading 1000 rounds from a minigun and they just 2 hit kill me, it's crazy stacked.

[jolly geyser]

What difficulty are you on?

I suggest normal for a first playthrough

[flat wraith]

You can change the difficulty level to and easier one untill you get better weapons or whatever

[waxen atlas]

I'm on easy lol

[flat wraith]

Very easy then

[waxen atlas]

Theres a very easy?

[distant widget]

Yes I use very easy all the time

[jolly geyser]

Are you equipping armor, Whiskerz?

[spare lance]

How much purified water should I carry in survival?

[waxen atlas]

I'll need to change it. I had to enable god mode in areas just to take the edge off things lol

[spare lance]

I Carry around 25-45 at the moment. I’m level 12.

[jolly geyser]

That is likely too much. You only need about 3 per in game day you plan to be away from base or a source of clean drinking water @spare lance

[spare lance]

I try use them to heal instead of stimpaks so I like to have a few.

[jolly geyser]

I would recommend using food. It's alot more powerful for healing and more plentiful. Also with your carry weight reduced, 25-45 waters doesn't leave a lot of room for weapons, armor, ammo, and loot.

[spare lance]

I dropped like 30 into my workshop. Im gonna have 15. Not exactly the best for weight but it should keep me going a couple of days.

[jolly geyser]

One other tip, you might want to put those waters in a separate container. Your base won't produce more purified waters if you have too many in your workshop.

[spare lance]

It’s just me in my current location. I’m at starlight drive-in and have no settlers. I put lots of Tato plants and some purifiers at sanctuary for those people before I left.

[distant widget]

I also use god mode because of mod's the mod is cheat terminal

[jolly geyser]

I play on either hard or survival

[flat wraith]

Hm?

Yeah I use the marine armor from far harbor dlc

[jolly geyser]

Hmm, not sure why you are being two shot then

[flat wraith]

Im not? 😅

[jolly geyser]

Oh that was blackburn sorry

[waxen atlas]

I think it feels like it in fairness, I'm just not very good at aiming I guess so most of my shots miss

[austere epoch]

At a certain point, every difficulty setting is too easy without some mod. I die to the enemies like once every 10 hours now on Survival, and it's been that way for awhile.

I'm way more likely to blow myself up or fall off an overpass than actually get killed by a Deathclaw or whatever

It would probably be harder if I nerfed myself by not using Jet. That drug trivializes Deathclaws and a lot of other enemies

[jolly geyser]

I tend to only use drug when I'm on the verge of being killed.

[coral drift]

Hi guys I've just started fallout 4 any tips and tricks for me?

[weak coyote]

10 is enough.

[lilac saffron]

guys i thought i was leveling up the armorer for power armor stuff i shoudlve put my points in science🥲 😭

[spare lance]

Yeah, I just loaded them onto Preston

I have managed to reach Cambridge police station, the Corvega was difficult but the raiders in the roof in Lexington were easy. The double barrel shotgun and a single grenade killed them easy (including the power armor)

Just cleared that boat on the way to diamond city

Fairly easily with a sniper and shotgun. Going to claim hangman’s and then go to the Great Green Jewel

I got the alley.

[lilac saffron]

This marvin dude has grenade launchers im gonna snipe them and evaporate them now

Im gonna show him im bringing my fatman

[lilac saffron]

Repaired all my power armor just for him

[magic olive]

Good evening.

Anyone here use Modern Firearms on Xbox and if so, which version do you use 🤔?

[jagged kindle]

how do I search the robobrain if the body doesnt have the menu show up

it also didnt move or attack when it was alive

[fluid notch]

all i can suggest is saving and reloading to see if it fixes the issue

[jagged kindle]

its still just broken and I cant do the quest (or the rest of the dlc after it)

the AI is so broken it cant even explode its just one fire

[weak coyote]

Reload am earlier save, redo the quest if you can.

[grand ferry]

isnt the leopard print bandana one of the rarest items?

[flat wraith]

I wanna start a new play thru but gosh nerfing myself so badly hurts

I've been using the same play thru for months, but I regret the story I chose to do since it was mostly violent since I did bos ending, im gonna do minute men on this one

[austere epoch]

I'm actually thinking of ditching my current playthrough and switching over to PC. The limitations on PS5 are just getting to be too much, especially the crashes. I'd also like to use a lot more mods

I have like 200 hours on this one, but honestly it doesn't matter that much. I'd probably use a fast start mod to power through early levels, and I'd also play a lot of things differently

[flat wraith]

I also put a majority of levels into a meele build I dont use anymore, so I'm gonna make a gun build, idk if I wanna use mods during the story they'd help but I want achievements idk if the minute men ending has any but aaa

I want to play fallout 4 with key board and mouse with my computer but I doubt it could run the game, I use my monitor i use for my xbox and idk much about computers

I keep putting off making a new playthru idk whyy

[warped tiger]

Okay so I learned that through console commands I can make any location an workshop but want to know if there's a list of all assets or wasteland assets in the game so that I may be able to make a more effective vault and wasteland though the Console.

[weak coyote]

Are you on performance mode or quality?

[warped tiger]

Is there an wiki page or something to tell me all the placable using placeatme furnitures, including crafting, bedding, misc, Cars and more?

[austere epoch]

I don't even see that option in the PS5 menu. Where is it?

[lilac saffron]

I have like 45 hours since i started no crashes but i get only 71 fps is that good they are stable

[austere epoch]

What system are you on?

[lilac saffron]

Gaming laptop rtx 4060

[flat wraith]

I ran off during the concord battle with the raiders at level 2 to go get my favourite companion hehe

I cant be bothered with the raiders and deathclaw I'll do that later 😔

[austere epoch]

Alright I did a whole new reinstall. I finally see the performance/quality toggle. We'll see if the game runs better

If it turns out I suffered through all these crashes because my original installation was borked I'll be mad, but also kind of relieved if that all stops

[warped tiger]

Anyone here know how to delete an object placed with the placeatme command?

[magic current]

anyone know if theres any vids out there of people killing the nukaworld raiders on survial mode? kinda interested on how it would go

[undone perch]

Was fighting three Raiders last night, killed one, and when the other 2 got closer they stopped attacking, and apologized saying they didn't recognize Valentine at first. Nifty.

[jagged kindle]

if you switch to pc remember to set your refresh rate to 120 hz

[steady tundra]

From console, click on object to get refID in console.
Type markfordelete and hit enter
Type disable and hit enter
You may need to leave and re-enter the area for it to disappear.

[austere epoch]

Alright, initial impression is that the game seems to be running a whole lot better after reinstall and turning on Performance mode. So far no completely random crashes. I'll have to test it in a high stress area like running from Hangman's Alley to Goodneighbor or something

Idk what the deal was with my first install, but I'll take it

[warped tiger]

Thanks for the heads up.

[rain kiln]

hello everybody

Im here to ask why I cant launch fallout4 when I launch Its never launch and goes to black screen

[candid trellis]

I just gor promoted to colonel in ar2

😄

[weak coyote]

It's in the ingame menu, settings/options

[weak coyote]

My experience on ps5 was alot better performance, it ran great compared to ps4, in about 200 hours only had like 3 crashes no fps issues, overall just much improved.
Why I was confused why you had so many issues on ps5, probably because you were on quality mode.

The ps5 is powerful and should be able to handle a ps4 game in quality mode with no issues... But it is a Bethesda game so...

[weak coyote]

Check my livestreams(3 months ago) , I only ever play survival, mostly modded to be harder... But my recent ps5 playthroughs were vanilla.

[magic current]

i just realised i should probably change my gameplay loop because doing the automatron DLC before nuka world gives me a walking tank to help with the slaughter of the nukaworld raiders

[weak coyote]

And if your playing survival, a robot is not only a heavily armed bodyguard, you can build one that can carry over 500 pounds.

[austere epoch]

I'm thinking my whole installation was f'd. Like either I didn't have the next gen update at all or I had a bugged version of it somehow. Even though I downloaded the whole PS5 file way back in May. Something went wrong somehow. Heck if I know

Played 3 hours or so this morning and got zero crashes. That would have been unheard of for me before today

[austere epoch]

Possibly I owe people an apology. If all my issues were because I installed the game wrong, then I said some unjustified things. On the other hand console installations are usually pretty straightforward and painless, lol. And I'm definitely not the only one who had next gen issues. Anyway I'm glad it seems to be actually running well now

[weak coyote]

Probably because you were on quality mode.

[weak coyote]

On your home screen it shows which version of the game you have, it has a ps4 or ps5 on the games icon.

[austere epoch]

I definitely have PS5 now. I thought that's what I had had the whole time, but idk. I never had the PS4 version installed on this PS5 in the past. Something weird happened. Anyway what I've got now is running like 100x better. I've had one glitch where I had to reload in like 4 hours

This game is genuinely amazing when it's actually running. Maybe I'll try vertibirds again

[warped inlet]

Any recommendations for a lore-friendly mod to integrate more masks (full and half face) into leveled lists?

2 I've found are Nimrout's and Half-gas masks but I'd like to know if there are others

https://mods.bethesda.net/en/fallout4/mod-detail/4203214

https://mods.bethesda.net/en/fallout4/mod-detail/3100696

[spare lance]

I just Switched Off survival mode. It was too much for me so I just put it on hard mode so I didn’t feel like I failed as much

Made it to level 21, done some good quests, Valentine would be too much for a survival playthrough.

[steady tundra]

I play a modified Survival. I like the addition of needs, and the dangers of disease, addiction, etc., but I hate damage sponges. It breaks the immersion for me when I have to dump almost a whole clip into a dog to take it down at the beginning of the game.
Are you playing on PC?

[weak coyote]

Yeah you can actually use them to travel on ps5... Ps4 is was 50/50 if the game would crash mid flight, it always lagged like crazy while flying aswell... Now on ps5 version you can enjoy the scenery without crazy framerate stuttering lagginess.

[weak coyote]

Use a mod that changes incoming and outgoing damages, I use one where everything is equal, I die in a few shots with armor on, so do enemies. No damage sponges.

[steady tundra]

Yup. I've got it taken care of.

[spare lance]

Ps5

[winged adder]

Yo guys, i'm level 12 and I somehow found X-02 power armor, but recently I got attacked by some enclave guys in Hellfire armor and they had orders to kill me, why?

[viral flower]

Creation club, everyone got some free items from the "Next-Gen" update

[winged adder]

Yeah but why are the enclave hunting me?

[viral flower]

not sure, didn't read into the lore.

Did you kill em?
Cause X-02 is I'm pretty sure the best PA

[winged adder]

i killed them

had to use a mini nuke tho, but atleast now i have a pair of X-02s and Hellfire power armor

[muted mantle]

i dont want to set the world on fire

[warped inlet]

Because Creation Club content dgaf about balancing and that one got added to base game with the update

[weak coyote]

It's part of the ccc quest, at a certain point the enclave comes after you.

[winged adder]

I'm done with the quest though

[weak coyote]

I do... You humans are the worst.
I'll be in my vault waiting for the day my clones can re-enter the surface world and rule... Gary!

[weak coyote]

Yeah, still part of the quest for them to come after you.

[muted mantle]

thats crazy ill molley whop you

[manic wolf]

Yippee yay

There be no wedding bells for today

I've got spurs that jingle jangle

[waxen pebble]

Vanilla CC X-02 has the same stats as X-01. I had to mod my game to buff it.

[muted mantle]

wats the best companion in modded fallout?

like one shotting everything

[lilac saffron]

Anyone freezing and crashing in a new game on fallout 4

I have the latest update and no mods on

[weak coyote]

It's a common occurance with Bethesda games, get used to it.

[lilac saffron]

Sad

[weak coyote]

What platform

[lilac saffron]

PC

It used to work great but i guess they did another update pass next gen

[weak coyote]

Yeah there was an update after next gen update

[lilac saffron]

Oh so they messed up somehow?

[weak coyote]

We're waiting on another update to fix the fix

[lilac saffron]

I think there patching it now actually i was on ge force now testing to see if its my system or the game in general and it says there patching it check back in a few hours

[weak coyote]

Depends on too many factors to say... We don't know your mod list.
But you can never go wrong with a heavily armed robot bodyguard / packmule that doesn't repeat the same thing constantly.

[weak coyote]

Highly doubtful

[lilac saffron]

So you think they just closed the game off to public for ge force now then? Cuz the games crashing

People might think ge force nows rigs are breaking haha

[flat wraith]

Is it normal for your frames to drop dramatically when you're in the uh city area

[flat wraith]

Are you able to join all factions and just do ones ending? (minute men)
I wanna know since I want to collect th companions from the factions

[urban sail]

You can join all factions but eventually working with a faction will require destroying some other factions. You can collect all companions but you will lose the ones from the factions you destroy.

[flat wraith]

Okay thanks, I did the bos ending on my last play through and killed a majority of them
I believe the minute men ending is the most "peaceful" one i havent done it before tho,

[urban sail]

Yes, the Minutemen ending only requires destroying the Institute so you can stay friendly with the Railroad and Brotherhood.

[flat wraith]

Okay thanks

[devout ibex]

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-fallout76-bethesda-softworks-brotherhood-of-steel-ad-victoriam-gif-18910598

[magic current]

i do wish the CC was more polished tbh like on the X-02 armour the headlights dont even fill the eye portion

[flat wraith]

I wonder how long it would take to get strongs perk because he dislikes everything
Doesn't he only like cannibalism? I cant remember what else he does like

[urban sail]

He likes helping Minutemen settlements, strangely enough. He also likes murdering innocents, but that can make whole towns hostile so that's probably not a good idea

[flat wraith]

I did not expect him to like that, that's very strange lol

I want to try and get all companion perks so I might just go on a raider murder spree and eat everyone's corspe

[steady tundra]

Ahhh. Very limited on what you can do with mods, and no console.

[silk oriole]

who here uses nmm

[magic current]

pretty sure everone who mods uses NMM

[warped inlet]

Hey all, I remember reading somewhere that automatrons have one arm they're more likely to use for melee and the other they're more likely to use for shooting. But I don't remember which one was the left one which one was the right one. Anyone remember?

[magic current]

me personally i go for the legs of robots cripple their ability to move properly
same with ghouls

[warped inlet]

I meant for building automatrons

[magic current]

i think the shooting one is the right hand since that is what we the player use

[warped inlet]

Nvm finally found the link. Left arm is primary weapon

[undone perch]

Had an interesting bug yesterday. I'm doing my first playthrough of the game, primarily on my Xbox Series X. I completed the Minuteman Quest "Taking Independence," and the Achievement did not pop. Found the official support article and tried the steps there, including re-doing the Quest, and still no luck.

A few hours later I decided to try one more re-attempt, but this time on my older Xbox One X, and the Achievement popped.

Very odd.

[crude herald]

Dose any1 know a PS4 mod that lets y change and Pick legendary effects but it doesn't require dlcs , I'm starting a new survival playtrough so gon have sm fun with it

[proven elm]

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

[crude herald]

Oh thanks

[viral flower]

Really? I swear it shows better stats for me on a modless playthrough

[austere epoch]

The load screen says the X-02 is "faster and lighter" than the X-01 because the Enclave used more advanced alloys. Anyone actually notice a difference in movement speed?

I should do some timed sprints with both on Spectacle Island

[jagged kindle]

how do I get to the mechanist if the doors wont open

[weak coyote]

UCO let's you swap legendaries

[crude wave]

just reload the save before the fight thats what i did

[jagged kindle]

its not that, the first door with the scanner just wont open

[crude wave]

have u brought the robot that has the attachment to open the doors?

[jagged kindle]

yes and the door didnt open

[crude wave]

hm. thats odd, i didnt have that issue

[crude herald]

Dose it need dlcs ? And how swap like can I only do it on legendary weapon or ?

[jagged kindle]

how do I open the door if the thing to open the door doesnt work

am I permanently locked out of Automatron

[heady current]

Have you tried the steps inthis article? https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/31452

[austere epoch]

There should be a base game version. How it works is you can remove the legendary effect from any weapon and store it as a mod that you can put on any other weapon that has a legendary slot. As for which weapons have legendary slots, some do and some don't. It's kind of random. Ones that you can add an effect to will have a "Not Legendary" description above the receiver type, whereas ones with no legendary slot won't have that at all, and the receiver will be the highest thing on the list when you inspect them

[weak coyote]

There is a base game mod and then dlc plug-ins. Also an aio if you have all dlc.
You can remove any legendary from any weapon /armor and put it on other weapons /armor. Swap.

[austere epoch]

Same thing with armor. It's really cool because if you have a bunch of legendary left arms or whatever you can move those effects over to other pieces

[jagged kindle]

I have tried going outside the building on an older save but the oldest save I wont lose much progress on is already in the building

[weak coyote]

UCO makes every weapon and armor have a legendary slot.

[austere epoch]

I also use a mod called "Useful Technical Documents" that lets you craft any legendary mod for 10 technical documents, which is way more useful than the 500 caps or so you get from the guy on the Prydwyn

[silk oriole]

is nmm a good mod manager

[jagged kindle]

how do I noclip through the door and bring ada with me without using console commands

[austere epoch]

I must have another mod that conflicts with it then, because I'll often come across weapons and armor with no legendary slots. It's like 50/50

[weak coyote]

Try a different robot with the thing installed on it
Also try command the follower from a distance, to activate companion commands, then from a distance order them to the door device, spam the button, eventually it will open.

[jagged kindle]

its not that the scanner isnt working, it scans, and then the door just doesnt open

it updates the quest and everything

[weak coyote]

Yes that mod needs to be specific in the load order based on your other mods.
The description explains it.

[jagged kindle]

I want to enjoy this buggy mess but its too much of a buggy mess

[crude herald]

Om I have quite few mods now and I'm not sure how should I put it in load order.....

Can I just name them and some1 tells me what to do pls 😭

Nah I do photography this is to complicated for me I'm jumping

[austere epoch]

This is a very rough guide I found. It improved performance quite a bit vs when I had them just in order of installation https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/articles/3993/

[crude herald]

Im on PS4

[austere epoch]

The principles are the same.

This is a very rough guide as to what categories of mods go where. Make sure you read the individual mod descriptions. Some will say "Place at bottom!" or "Place high" or "Place before/after X other mod"

[crude herald]

Ok I think by SM random chance I somehow got it right cus it all works

Why didint I do all this before getting to lvl 60......

[austere epoch]

Most of the time a pretty random load order will still "work" in that the game loads and plays, but a bad load order can lead to conflicts where certain features are cancelled out by other mods, and deoptmization increasing slowdown and crashes

It's more important if you're using anything that changes gameplay systems in a major way. Almost all of mine just add some weapon or outfit, or add things to the build menu, or create a new settlement somewhere, or fix one specific thing like the roofs in Sanctuary

If you want to play with something like Simple Seasons plus a lighting mod plus a weather mod, the risk of major conflicts is way higher

[crude herald]

Y3a I only use 1 for color and that's simple green thing , I don't mind the look that much

[crude herald]

Yea this is kinda it that I have

[zealous ocean]

Hello everyone, I bought 2700 Creation Club credits in Fallout 4, but they haven't been added to my game account in any way. I submitted a ticket, but they weren't very helpful. How can I resolve this issue?

[full mango]

Did you purchase them for the right account? You can also reply to your ticket for further assistance if the first troubleshooting given didn't help.

[zealous ocean]

I purchased them from the Epic Games Store, submitted 10 tickets, and received no assistance at all.

[full mango]

Well there's your problem. Submitting multiple tickets doesn't help address things faster. Did you submit through our help site?

[zealous ocean]

No, I didn’t submit them as spam. I received responses to each ticket, but none of them were helpful.

[full mango]

Again, you would need to reply to the ticket for further assistance.

[zealous ocean]

They told me the credits would be added to my account within 2 days, but unfortunately, I haven't received any credits. 😦

[zealous ocean]

They want the answer to the security question on my account. How can I view it?

[full mango]

You should have set that up with your account. https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/32050

[zealous ocean]

thanks

[zealous ocean]

Thank you to the entire Bethesda team for resolving my issue!

[turbid spindle]

One silly little question is there a way to place items from your junk or my stuff on shelves or on the ground for yard art , I have tried but only store or scrap. if there a trick please help. Thank you in advance.

[austere epoch]

It's funny when I get a "Raider Trouble" radiant quests at one of my really strong settlements like Starlight Drive In or whatever. Apparently three raiders are extorting this 200 defense fortress from across the map

Aside from a full BoS assault with vertibirds and armored knights, or an Institute synth army, there's no force in the Commonwealth that could threaten that place

[crude herald]

I Always eliminate bos , they legit want dictatorship

If I could id take on whole brotherhood just to be able to kill them 1 by 1

[austere epoch]

I'm a knight who hasn't reported for duty in like two game calendar years

It's been at least two years since Maxson told me to go find the Institute, and the Prydwyn is just chilling there

[crude herald]

Oh I put the prydwyn down every time

The moment when I tried to join them they spoke down to me they became my forever enemies and in every future fallout game I play I will wipe them out

[granite arch]

So just for clarification for something i thought i saw here or elsewhere, is Bethesda working on another patch to "attempt" to fix all of their bugs from the NG updates?

[steady tundra]

Unfortunately, we don't have any confirmation one way or the other.

[storm cliff]

Yo

[viral flower]

The vertibirds wont bring me to the prydwen
they take off and immediately land

Fixed it
Just had to chose another destination and switch to prydwen

[weak coyote]

Outside of workshop mode... Hold the interact button to "pick up" the object, then you can manipulate it with other buttons, press interact again to drop.

[austere epoch]

I have a tame Mirelurk Queen on Spectacle Island, and I thought it would be awesome, but she mostly hangs out in the lobby of the big hotel I built and makes weird noises

I was really hoping she'd patrol the perimeter or something. Wish I could assign tame creatures a general "domain" in the settlement. My Castle Deathclaw always hangs out by the bar with the settlers at night, but that's kind of okay

I guess they want to feel like part of the family

[sick cove]

Lol i love that, i have yet to actually use that dlc to its fullest, i mainly use the concrete for just building bases

[waxen pebble]

Bethesda won't say anything at all, and it's very disappointing. Stuff is broken.

[flat wraith]

My deathclaws yearn for the gym

I would love to see a deathclaw use a pommel horse tbh

[austere epoch]

Really wish I'd done this reinstall a month earlier. It's amazing. The game doesn't just crash out of nowhere when I fast travel, or interact with merchants, or open workshop inventory, or enter build mode, or when I'm just running through a settlement or the Commonwealth. No slowdown either

[urban sail]

I reinstalled the game before the next gen update because I had a lot of mods I couldn't completely get rid of and would likely be broken by the update. It's been running smoothly ever since.

[weak coyote]

Sounds like you were playing the ps4 version.

[lilac saffron]

guys how do a disable the high resoulution dlc

[random spire]

Is this with Steam? If you are check your DLC and it will be included. Untick the box and it will uninstall.

[lilac saffron]

alr thanks

[late herald]

is fallout london gonna be playable on next gen update?

[austere epoch]

Which would be very bizarre because I downloaded it from the page that was advertising the next gen update. But I think you're right

The PS4 version I played back during the Obama administration ran way better than this was doing though.

[austere epoch]

It's really dumb when you jump off a building in power armor and everyone in the settlement starts attacking you

[weak coyote]

Yeah but you still had to select the version.

[weak coyote]

It's an attack when you land, there is an aoe upon landing.
Impact landing.

[austere epoch]

Yeah I probably screwed up. BUT, it still means the PS4 version as of 2024 had become borderline unplayable after all the DLC and version updates. Glad they seem to have fixed it with this one

Although I hear certain PC/XB mods like Sim Settlements are completely boned by the update

[austere epoch]

I know. I wish settlers were somehow immune, lol

[magic current]

anyone know of any dupe glitches for legendary weapons that works? i been trying the conveyerbelt dogmeat one for a hour and cannot get the right timing

[warped inlet]

Anyone know which section of a logical load order ECO/NEO/LEO would go?

I have them under "Gameplay changes" but I've seen LOs where they're below new weapon and armor mods?

[magic current]

yeah they go below new weapon and armour mods cuz mods are loaded top down so if eco/neo/leo were above those weapon and armour mods the ENL stuff might not work on the new weapon and armour

[main chasm]

i finally put together a hangmans alley build that i love! took some inspiration from a few other videos i saw but i simplified mine.

[austere epoch]

Post some pics

For me that place got a lot better when I realized you can get rid of the gate and guard tower and put your front line defense closer to the alley entrance

[muted beacon]

tried to downgrade fallout 4 to get my mods working again but the downgrader removes the fallout4.exe file and the game wont start without it... awesome.

[granite arch]

Simple downgrader is the one that you should be using

[muted beacon]

I did use it.

so why isn't it working if it's the best?

[granite arch]

Did you extract all of the files from it to your game folder?

It should create backup of the newgen exe and for the launcher but rename to them "backup" while the main exe's will be the old gen

[muted beacon]

yea, ima just try something rq

nvm. Didn't work, Ima just download the deposits ig

[molten pilot]

I actually prefer the CC Fallout 4 Gauss Rifle.

• The Cranking actually makes sense
• It’s using 2mm EC
• Its just good looking and makes sense the magazine is actually on the left side

[weak coyote]

Use a mod where you can swap legendaries and rename the weapon.

[weak coyote]

And don't unlock the door upstairs and by the street... One way in,place a powered door next to the gap that's between the building and wall,the powered wood wall door is the same size as the gap.

[rotund rain]

If I make an elevator going to the highway on Finch Farms, will NPC's start spawning on it?

[viral flower]

Idk if bug but like
Why is it that sometimes when I get on a Vertibird, I don't get a minigun

[grand ferry]

I just found a leopard print bandana bro

[austere epoch]

I need to figure out powered doors. Is there a way I can set things up so I get a notification that a settlement is under attack, and put a fast travel point next to some switch so I can just warp in and instantly lock the place down?

It would be kind of cool if I could take away the option for my settlers to rush out and go fight in the open field

[flat wraith]

Im in love with the deliverer

Favourite gun tbh despite me not often doing stealthy kills

I haven't used guns often cuz meele is insane in fallout games lol.

[weak coyote]

Vertibirds are very buggy.
Sometimes a gun doesn't spawn, but your holding it like it's there.
Sometimes the gun will disappear randomly mid flight.
Just getting on the thing it's 50/50 the game will crash.

[weak coyote]

Place a fast travel mat.

[austere epoch]

I meant the powered door part. I need to mess with that. So you can completely lock an area down?

[frozen edge]

Helllloo, anyone know a page for male outfit mods besides nexus? There are several for Skyrim.. but I can’t seem to find any for fo4 😵‍💫

[winged adder]

yo guys does anyone have issues with loading times?

I don''t have issues with any other games

[modern flame]

Guys I reached half nuka world at lvl 30 is it normal

[magic current]

just grabbed LEO and full sent it

[weak coyote]

Yes, npc's can't operate switches.

[inner viper]

Hmm.. so the Covenant settlement could practically be made impervious to any attack by adding powered door to the entrance?

[rigid bay]

Yeah, when I do Hangman's Alley, I move the guard tower thing up to the edge. It wedges right in there. Maybe step it back a bit, put a turret in front of it. Or pillar/rug glitch a tall 2x1 scaffolding into the thing (might need a stand so the settler working it can fit) with two 1x1 platforms on top, and put the turret up there.

Great settlement, fun to set up, terrible pathing

[lilac saffron]

I managed to snag a Nuka Cola bottle from the gear store while it was restocked. Did anyone else?

[austere epoch]

Finally solved my cow pen door problem. Sanctuary has like 6 Brahmin, and I wanted to keep them walled off, but the gate I installed kept getting left open. Now it's a powered door

[tall bluff]

Sided against the raiders for the first time at Nuka World... Man, that was not worth it.

Died several times, emptied round after round into the horde. I was level 35 and felt like a level 1 scrub stumbling into the Glowing Sea.

Took down Mason first, then Mags and William, and finally Nisha, who relocated to where you meet them to lay siege to the power plant.

And after all that trouble, erasing 3 separate raider gangers, I got about as much XP as Preston gives you for clearing out mole rats.

No caps, no weapon, no nothing. Least they can do is give me splatter cannon and throat slicer free of charge.

[austere epoch]

I'm sorry that happened to you

[weak coyote]

No, walls around a settlement are pointless, when a settlement is attacked, most times enemies spawn inside the settlement border.

[weak coyote]

It's more about roleplay.

[inner viper]

100% agree, actually. Whats actually worse is that going "good alignment path" in Nuka-World basically locks you out of main quest (reclaiming the Nuka-World theme park) progression. I mean - there could easily be a way to implement basically the same quests with traders instead of raider gangs taking residence in reclaimed areas.

[inner viper]

Precisely, and therefore it is strange that taking the "siding with Nuka-Town traders against raiders" path actually... takes the player nowhere....

[molten pilot]

i am a simple man. I see an AKM….. I want it

I wish the handmade was actually renamed the “Assault Rifle” because thats what it is

[lilac saffron]

Assault rifles are fun to shoot

[lilac saffron]

https://gear.bethesda.net/collections/nuka-sale

Did anyone get a Nuka bottle during the sale?

[rotund rain]

Do turrets at my settlements give me xp if they kill things?

[main chasm]

I know the game is old but how tf are they going to make survival mode that can’t be saved then have numerous game breaking bugs? And after who knows how long they still aren’t fixed.

Sorry rant over

[weak coyote]

You can rename weapons in the workbench

[molten pilot]

i mean as in the role as a weapon in the sandbox. Something in the level list by default vanilla game

🤔im not a big fan of how Bethesda perceives firearms

[weak coyote]

Yeah the bugs suck but there are mods to turn on saving, and soon enough you remember where all the placed beds, mattresses and sleeping bags are... There are places to save everywhere in vanilla no mods.

[molten pilot]

Like ammo types such as the 5.56, .38, and .50 i find very useless.

[molten pilot]

I would have preferred the Assault Rifle to be chambered in 5mm or .50 as a modification.

The Combat Rifle chambered in .45 is strange with its magazine box and would have made sense in .45-70 govt.

[austere epoch]

Probably 80% of my shots fired are .45 with a combat rifle, or 2mm gauss rounds. Most of the rest are shotgun shells. I've started trying to mix it up more though

The combat rifle feels best to me in a midrange fight (ie iron sights, no scope)

[molten pilot]

I wish FO4 had all 3 main assault rifles from the previous fallout games.

• Chinese Assault Rifle
• Assault Carbine
• R91 Assault Rifle

[austere epoch]

I'd probably still only use one, lol

There are honestly more guns than I ever get around to using

[molten pilot]

Thats mainly cause Gauss and Combat dominate

Instigating Gauss Rifle can deal like 600 damage

[austere epoch]

I have this Enraging pipe sniper rifle I like using to cause chaos. I hit a Behemoth with it and watched as he killed the entire Super Mutant camp

It only enrages on critical, but I have maxed out Critical Banker, which is the GOAT perk, so it's never a problem

[austere epoch]

For heavy weapons I've found myself really digging the Chinese grenade launcher

[proper solar]

Where do u find it

[flat wraith]

Gosh darn it I wanted to collect all the companions in one settlement but x6-88 is so hostile I don't think it'll work with him ohh well

[silk oriole]

how do i fix f4se saying xdi is not in plugings

[dusty scroll]

if you own the auto madmic musket it disappre over time in the game play throw aslo it breaks quest and NPC that shoulnt be dead is dead!

[magic current]

ok im testing a new route for my playthroughs

get preston out of concord and do enough stuff to make him gimme general
go to the BOS and complete the main story with them
go to nuka world and do all the quests and collect what i can till shank asks me to take a commonwelth settlement
if done right i will have 36 troops ready to slaughter the raiders
go back to preston and see if hes grumpy
???
profit

[inner viper]

Chinese assault rifle was actually going to be FO4's "vanilla assault rifle" with current "assault rifle" being what it is - an LMG. Assault carbine would have been nice addition as rifle chambered for 5mm.

[candid stone]

I honestly believe Vietnam war era guns like a futuristic M16 or M60 would go hard,
And just more pistols in general.

[molten pilot]

Bethesda rlly makes it hard for me to understand what military weapons were a standard in the great war. Unsure if the Combat Rifle was pre-war or what

[austere epoch]

Not sure where you'd find one in the wild. It starts showing up at weapons vendors at a certain point

[inner viper]

FO4/FO76 combat rifle is surely pre-Armageddon one. In my personal fanon I rationalised the standard combat rifle to be .308 automatic rifle known as M199 Backtalker - predecessor of R91 (FO3 assault rifle) as US Armed forces standard infantry rifle.

With Chinese People Liberation Army it is more straightforward - their standard infantry rifle was the Type-93 (FO3 chinese assault rifle)

[inner viper]

M60 LMG is explicitely canon in Fallout universe. As is AR10/AR15/M16 type rifle (however we don't know its in-universe name)

[turbid spindle]

Have to ask what is the biggest difference between 4 and 76 sorry but I am new to Fallout community love the game so far

[magic current]

riddle me this
my xbox is connected to internet and fallout 4 refuses to load
disconnect the xbox from internet and now fallout 4 loads fine

[steady tundra]

Password or email for saved CC account is wrong.

[magic current]

weird cuz theres only one

cant be that cuz skyrim and starfeild are loading fine while online

[steady tundra]

Go to bethesda.net and try to login to test.

[magic current]

yeah logged in fine for all games

[steady tundra]

I don't know then. Maybe a bug in the multiverse.

[magic current]

ya know the please stand by screen when you load fallout 4 it loads for like a second then stops

[steady tundra]

I'm on PC. I have all the intro screens/vids turned off.

[magic current]

i think i know how to fix it buut i need to trigger the cloud sync system

[full mango]

Sounds like you have a broken mod

[magic current]

mods have been nuked

[full mango]

Clear reserve space: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/37011

[magic current]

thats what nuked means...

giving the game a reinstall to see if it figures itself out

[magic current]

yeah after a reserve space purge and a reinstall the game and its still freezing on the "please stand by" screen

WOO i got the sync screen i think this can now be fixed
yup that fixed it ok so now next time this happens im just gunna rip the power cable out and see if thats actually the fix

[molten pilot]

In Fallout Tactics there is an M16

[austere epoch]

I think what really confused me is I had all the next gen update stuff. Like I had the X-02. I had Suggs as a vendor. Everything else that came with the update. But somehow running on the PS4 engine, on the PS5? It was really weird

I was just looking over everything that was added in the next gen update, and I had all of it except Performance mode

[weak coyote]

The ps4 version got the ccc stuff aswell with the update.
PS5 is backwards compatible with ps4 games.
Gotta pay attention to what version of a game your installing. There is always an option to choose if it has ps4/ps5 versions.

[weak coyote]

Yep then you were definitely playing the ps4 version... Explains all the headaches you were experiencing. The ps5 version runs a whole lot better.

[austere epoch]

Like 1000% better

[weak coyote]

Yep, now if they just fix what next Gen update broke,it would be a great game, even more so...
I would hope that if there is one last update make it a big one, fix as many issues as they can before they completely stop support, there are still day one bugs, it's about time they do something.

[flat wraith]

What's the best thing in the cc shop in you guys opinion

[molten pilot]

• Military Backpack
• Donuts and Coffee (workshop)
• Shroud Manor (bias) (workshop)
• Captain Cosmos (its a great quest)

[weak coyote]

I don't own it, but from everything I've read and what people say, considering I only play survival... The backpack.

[molten pilot]

In terms of weapons:

• Anti-Material Rifle
• Prototype Gauss Rifle
• Classic 10mm pistol

[flat wraith]

I've been hella tempted to buy cc points for some picket fence books, they look great but idk what to get, I heard the backpacks are nice but I just use mods for backpacks
500 is the lowest amount of cc points u can buy and its 9 dollars buttt I'm tempted

[molten pilot]

i recommend getting Modern Furniture and Decorations as a start. They’re great for making modern homes. They each cost 300? i think

[flat wraith]

Thanks, I'll check out some videos on them since the description and images in the cc shop don't give much information

[molten pilot]

the rest are usually player homes

[molten pilot]

Donuts and Coffee as well as the Robco arcade cabinets are imo really fun

I dont hate the Creation Club in Fallout 4 but i think its because these types of monetizations are just the norm today. You can get Fallout 4 GOTY for like 10 bucks now so i dont mind spending some for creations if they r good

are there really bad ones? yea

[flat wraith]

I spent like 25 dollars for the goty version, mostly cuz I wanted far harbor but I was 20 dollars alone

[fiery tartan]

my Xbox connroller is connected to my pc but it wont work while playing, have any idea why

[flat wraith]

Nuka world is cool but, I hate how it forces me to inslave my own people sigh

[molten pilot]

I dont rlly have a liking for Fallout 4 DLC much. most of em imo should have been in the base game for their workshop related content

[fiery tartan]

pls?

ok

[molten pilot]

the contraption workshop DLC is basically the equivelent of minecraft redstone and the fact it wasnt in vanilla game kinda makes me sad because i found the building at launch pretty dull?

[granite arch]

I have had a lot of fun with the settlement ambush kit

[molten pilot]

i like it but its kinda overpriced

[flat wraith]

Yeah it's alot but it looks pretty cool

[flat wraith]

Fair enough I like the contraptions I had no idea what the dlc was untill I found it under power and yay, I can produce ammo the only issue is lead is so hard to find??

Yes let me grab these 4, 180lb weights and waddle home

[molten pilot]

yea u needa make a lot of trade routes and find a consistent stream of junk

[flat wraith]

Yeaah I use a weightless junk mod now because uhhh I like hoarding things
I absolutely robbed the institution of every decoration, I've noticed father's room has a plate you can't pick up

I haven't rlly focused on settlement building but after getting the dlcs with extras idk I felt like doing it more often

[molten pilot]

I think fallout 4’s settlement building was genius after seeing all the possibilities

[flat wraith]

Mods are definitely great for settlement building, doing it without is torture

I love place anywhere and scrap everything they're great, I can clean the floors up and fix the walls up

[flat wraith]

How is the anti material rifle good? I've sene it in other games but never used one so I never got the interest in it, I'm curious

[weak coyote]

Scrap everything causes problems, it breaks pre combines.
Go with sts instead.

[molten pilot]

Its not rlly that good in Fallout 4. (its a reskin hunting rifle) It just looks nice. It’s def better than the hunting rifle but in .50 by default. In New Vegas its an absolute monster

[molten pilot]

A lot of the CC weapons are just weak and need a mod to improve their performance.

but i think its more so Bethesda’s fault for balancing legendary enemies to be literal bullet sponges

[zealous wharf]

Just get the kiloton radium rifle and add all the perks associated with it’s effectiveness and then you have a beast of a weapon that has plenty of ammunition in stock and get throatslicer you can basically kill anything then

[zealous wharf]

Hey on Xbox when does fallout 4 goty usually go on sale

[flat wraith]

Yeah I use that I just used scrap everything as a alternative

[flat wraith]

Kinda randomly but it's not very rare it goes on sale often

[weak coyote]

Radiation heals ghouls and supermutants

[flat wraith]

Why did I just find a broken fatman model I the castles armoury

[molten pilot]

yes

[inner viper]

However, Fallout: Tactics is semi-canon, that basically means that only those things from it, that are aknowledged by higher-level canon sources are canon (e.g. like the existence of Midwest BoS chapter and how it came to be). The "M16" moniker is a name specifically bestowed upon AR15 automatic rifle (that's different from AR15-type civilian semi-auto rifles) by US Armed forces, and we don't know if in Fallout universe AR15 even came to be US Armed forces standard infantry rifle of choice. It is likely that it actually never did (otherwise the R91 rifle (FO3 assault rifle) would most likely never happen at all).

[austere epoch]

Honestly I can already kill everything with base weapons. An advanced combat rifle or plasma rifle is enough for almost every situation

[molten pilot]

The Assault Carbine in New Vegas is basically an M4 Carbine without a charging handle and uses a side charger on the upper receiver (which is possible irl). Its also not a bad idea to assume considering the Great War took place in 2077

The AR platform would have already been out of service. The M4 is already being replaced with the XM7 today

Also its clear the Assault Carbine and Marksman Carbines were used by military. They were present in Vault 34 and Nellis Air base

Also according to Josh Sawyer (least from the wiki and some archives)

there was a question about New Vegas if the Assault Carbine were standard issue like the R91

His answer was that they weren’t standard issue and intended for paratrooper weapons. Meaning the AR platform was either out of service by then years later or is used exclusively for airforce

And sure we dont officially know what those weapons are called but lets be real. The 9mm pistol is a Hi-power browning. The 9mm SMG is a rechambered m3 Greaser. Fallout 2 even called it the proper military name in .45 ACP. Joshua’s .45 Auto pistol is a 1911. U cant really unsee it when u recognize it

Not to mention companies like Sig Sauer, Glock, Colt, Magnum Research, H&K, and FN exist so theres no point assuming ArmaLite doesnt exist in this universe

TLDR: The M16/M4 were once service weapons of the armed forces in Fallout’s lore

[austere epoch]

It's possible you put more effort into this analysis than Bethesda did

[molten pilot]

actually December’s Child in the game files is called “M4 Carbine” so bethesda def had some sort of intention for the iconic US rifle

[austere epoch]

I'm not much of a real world gun expert, so this is interesting to read

[austere epoch]

Thinking I might join the Institute. Idk. The place is pretty cool, and Father makes a compelling argument

[flat wraith]

I wanna do a institute play thru but, I can only have x6-88 as a main companion if I do since I gotta spend alot of time in the institution (I assume)

[urban sail]

If you have a different companion they will not join you inside the Institute but they will be there when you fast travel away. You don't actually spend that much time inside the Institute itself, you have to turn in quests and stuff but most action still happens outside

[inner viper]

There is actually two different things to consider. Did the AR10/AR15/M16 rifle platform exist in Fallout universe? Most certainly yes. Confirmed are a rifle resembling Dutch-produced AR10 (FO76 Screaming Eagle rifle), a rifle resembling the M16A1 (NCR's armorers no doubt based NCR service rifle on a pre-Armageddon template, but with full-auto capability removed to conserve ammo) and a rifle resembling XM177 carbine (FNV assault carbine). Were any AR10/AR15-type rifle adopted for military service in Fallout universe? Also yes they did. Pre-Armageddon the assault carbine explicetely was and after the service rifle became NCR standard infantry rifle. Was any of AR15/M16 rifles at any point a standard infantry rifle of pre-Armageddon US armed forces? We don't know but hints are they weren't....

[flat wraith]

Do any companion quests require the institution intact?

[ocean perch]

Iirc Screaming Eagle is from Atomic Shop. Could be non canon

[silk oriole]

how do i fix f4se

[rigid bay]

It doesn't. When you get the quest to raid the Commonwealth, you can go to that one slave vendor in the market for an alternative outcome. However, this will deny you an achievement or two, so you might want to make a hard save, do the bad things, get the achievements, then revert and continue as you like.

[rigid bay]

Scrap mods can be useful, but they're also kinda broken. Like the other guy said, they can break precombines, which is a problem for your save game going forward. For every use case where a scrapping mod helped, there are probably at least two cases where scrapping something is a Really Bad Idea. Bethesda uses a lot of "unscrappable" objects to cover up faults in the geometry of the game, and often times it looks worse or you straight up expose the void underneath if you scrap that thing. Better to try to work within the system than break it. Though, I suppose a scrap mod with an "undo" option would go a long way. Sadly no one is that interested in making one, it seems.

[inner viper]

Aren't Atomic Shop items part of canon by default?

[ocean perch]

Back in 2020 during gamescom stream Emil Pagliarulo and Jeff Gardiner said that they aren’t canon

[zealous wharf]

The ballistic automatic and explosive perks will outweigh that and it will usually destroy ghouls easily

[proper solar]

Is fallout 76 a good game?

[austere epoch]

Realistically only charred ghouls have enough HP to be a consideration

[full mango]

You'll probably get more answers in #fallout-76-chat

[proper solar]

Okay

[zealous wharf]

Yeah I had 4 legendary charred ghouls and 10 non legendary come at me nearly died at level 70 used 250 something.45 bullets

[waxen pebble]

The biggest difference is FO4 is a single player game and FO76 is online multiplayer. Also, FO76 is set not long after the Great War and FO4 is over 200 years later.

[austere epoch]

Just got The Battle of Bunker Hill. I guess I'm going to have to disappoint someone. I wish there were ways to either negotiate a 4 way peace, or screw everyone and become the tyrant of the Commonwealth

New Vegas gave you the selfish option which was really fun

[rigid bay]

We aren't allowed to say it isn't or why per the rules

So I will talk about its strong points. The biggest criticism against 76 when it came out was the lack of human(oid) NPCs. They've fixed that. They've also supported the game with yearly (or more than 1 a year?) DLC, the latest of which was a new map you could travel to. All in all I do believe it's a good game, but MMOs aren't really my thing. And it does a thing all/most MMOs do; that is, when you finish a quest it's more like "okay on you go to the next thing" rather than "oh thank you for actually doing something that matters." It's just because you're not the only player and that NPC is getting ready to beg the next player to solve the problem you just solved. So you kinda have to pretend you made a difference I guess?

And another good thing about it, it's set in a beautiful part of the country that wasn't hit as hard by the bombs, so when it was just Skyrim and Fallout 4 (I mean there were others... you know what I mean) it was like, "you go to Elder Scrolls for a beautiful world, and Fallout to shoot guns" but 76 gave you the best of both.

[errant echo]

Not a thing here. We arent the government and we have #rules that you agreed to on this server

[proper solar]

Sorry it was funny mb

[proper solar]

Well that’s positive !! How much does it cost ?

[rigid bay]

I can't say for sure. I'm on GamePass (and I bought 2 years at once, so I have it until next summer) so I can actually install the latest Fallout 76 and play for free.

That said, there are things you can buy. You can also join a subscription called Fallout 1st that gives you some perks and some points to spend in the shop. I don't use either and when I did play, aside from the things I don't like about MMOs in general, I did have a good time. I don't feel like it's "pay to win," I think it's more like "pay to have more options in your game." But it's worth noting that, like any live service game (like MMOs, but this also applies to mobile games), it makes a lot of its money on the microtransactions and subscriptions. It's a bit different here as Bethesda has a lot of other revenue streams. But, before writing off the microtransactions and Fallout 1st, consider that these things directly support the game. If you like it, consider paying.

I think the best way is to go with GamePass. It was just $1 for the first month. Not sure if they still have that offer. And you can play all the Bethesda games that are on Xbox (so, not the first two Elder Scrolls games). Also Fallout: New Vegas. So you kinda get all of them. The lowest GamePass is like $12 a month I think? The one I have went up to $20 a month. It was $15 when I signed up. But it now includes Call of Duty so you know they had to bump it up.

So yeah, I'd look for a free/cheap trial on GamePass, play the game that way (and yes, GamePass works on PC, too... and not just Windows. I can play all the games on my Mac... though that's through the cloud gaming and played on an Xbox Series S), and see if you like it or not. It's always best to form your own opinions on a game.

[proper solar]

Ah okay thanks Alot

[weak coyote]

You would need ps+

[weak coyote]

I don't agree to it, where I sit, I have free speech, that's up to you guys to censor me and kick me if you feel it necessary.

[austere epoch]

Don't get kicked. You're needed here

[trail rock]

I've just done all 4 possible endings, using previous saves and taking from there. The Minutemen way that doesn't make BoS hostile is the most peaceful. Although, a kind of funny glitch I wish I had been quick enough to get a screenshot. In all 3 other endings the Railroad heavy Glory gets, spoiler alert, killed in one way or another. So this Minutemen way I went back to Railroad HQ and Desdemona tells me how sad everyone is about Glory dying, while Glory is walking behind her very much alive 🤣 But yeah kind of not, because I tried talking to Glory and she just stares blankly, no other interaction possible.

[flat wraith]

I have to kill gage if I do kill them which is a shame so I might just get a mod to skip the quest

[austere epoch]

I also saw a "Gage stays loyal" mod

[flat wraith]

Can I take the skip quest mod out of my mod load list after it does its job or will it be buggy

Cuz I seriously don't want to let raiders take over my settlements
Especially the disciples geez I like my settlers in one piece

[molten pilot]

basically play the game like every quest is a chore and work towards making a better build. Its a looter shooter like destiny and thats always been my turn off but luckily theres other stuff i focus on like camp settlements

[molten pilot]

its also the aspect i really hate about Fallout 4. The legendary weapons. I just feel like it makes the game feel arcadish

[flat wraith]

Am I still able to do minute men ending with evacuation if I am enemies with the institute?
I cant think of any way to progress in minute men ending other then this.

[urban sail]

Yes, the Minutemen ending is always available, and you can always do the evacuation if you blow up the Institute.

[inner belfry]

[alpine apex]

Unless…. Your the nuka world overboss

[urban sail]

It will still be available once you turn against the raiders.

[alpine apex]

If you turn against them lol

[main chasm]

Where would be a good place in FO4 to make a Brahmin cattle farm? I would need a fairly large area that could be fenced in that’s on dirt ground. 🤔 🤔

[left niche]

Also, 76 has no ending. It just goes on and on.

[inner viper]

And why shouldn't "give the evacuation order" option become not available? The protagonist is alone at the moment when it is up to him/her to decide wherever to give that order or not. It is more, however morally unsound that may be, strange that if you follow BoS questline you can still rescue Shawn (the synth kid that is) with no objection from BoS top-tier personnel, regardless of him being obviously synth. Minutemen in FO4 AFAIK are really sort of like "Yes Man" was in FNV - a "backup faction" if you managed to get on the bad side of every other major factions in the game.

[wispy vapor]

[molten pilot]

The castle armory in Fo4 kinda sucks. Its also kinda a shame we cant use the USS constitution as some air vehicle to counter the BOS prydwyn. Would have been awesome

[lilac saffron]

Can you drink out of a glass Nuka bottle from the Bethsada store?

[inner viper]

Laser musket concept as it is rather not well implemented, actually, I would agree. But aside from that - whats particularly wrong about Castle's armory?

What is really up to me most missing from the game is the removal of the story for major factions and towns, reflecting the choices player made during the game.

[molten pilot]

its a fatman, some smoke flares, laser musket upgrades, Laser Turrets, artillery schematics, and a bunch of mines

[urban sail]

Tbf so does Fallout 4. Both have a main quest that ends at some point but you can still keep playing after that. 76 has dailies and events and Fallout 4 has radiant quests.

[austere epoch]

A couple ideas. Sunshine Tidings can be pretty good if you build a wall along the left side (facing uphill). Sanctuary has a ton of space for this along the riverbank. Finch Farm could work if you build a wall, but I made that place a tato farm.

I did a more dispersed thing with a lot of places having 3-4 brahmin rather than one place having a lot. If I had to pick one single place to have 10+ brahmin I'd probably go Sanctuary or Sunshine Tidings

Fun alternative: Jamaica Plain with a skeleton crew of humans, and the brahmin just wander like you're in Varanasi

[karmic bluff]

Does anybody have any idea why Fallout 4 will not launch for me on Steam? I have uninstalled and re-downloaded it several times. Restarted the PC. Removed mods. Anything and everything I can think of but it will crash instantly. Can anybody please help me?

Do you have Weapon Debris set to higher than medium? You may need to set it to medium or off: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/65578

[lilac saffron]

For some reason at my settlements in fallout 4 the furniture disappeared

I'm sorry I meant I can't make any more furniture

[karmic bluff]

That was already off. No. I turned off Motion Blur and messed with the resolution. It launched. Set the resolution back to what I originally had it. Launches fine. What the actual heck? Just... What?!

[weak coyote]

One time my fallout 4 game took over 12 hours to download

[molten pilot]

the loading screens are tied to fps. Have fun

[lucid flax]

What's up

[karmic bluff]

Totally figured it out. The M1 Garand was causing it to crash. I had to completely uninstall the game and delete the local file to get it working again. Weird.

[flat wraith]

Do all companions have a "side quest" they need you to do or do some not?

[trail rock]

Wow I only just learned yesterday about putting a Pommel Horse in a settlement, and today I learned that every settlement needs one - first time I saw a settler doing a routine on one 😆

I'm thinking where do I get gymnast uniforms - surely someone in Diamond City?

[urban sail]

No. Only Nick, Cait, Curie and MacCready have a companion quest. And Danse, if you count Blind Betrayal.

[molten pilot]

im surprised Piper or Preston dont have any considering one of em has some interesting history

[flat wraith]

I see thank u 👍

I suppose strong never finds that milk? 🤣

[inner viper]

Piper and Preston (latter - for obvious reasons, I presume) do not have one, for example.

[inner viper]

In Preston's case it's whole Minutemen questline there at player's disposal (however, it is strange that there isn't a quest to retake the towb of Quincy from Gunners). Piper do have some lines of conversation considering her fears about the future of her younger sister, but unfortunately, we don't get a proper companion quest in her case.

[tawny coral]

Piper is the best girl ever

[rigid bay]

Until you romance her and she forgets all about her lil sister, abandoning her to the corruption of Diamond City just because the Sole Survivor is just that interesting.

They fixed this in Starfield. The companion who's responsible for a kid, brings her everywhere, they come as a package deal take it or leave it. Fallout 4 should have made you bring Nat along, house her in one of your settlements and return there every so often to keep Piper happy (or just leave Piper there with her).

[jagged kindle]

how do I backup my save files because I want to verify and repair the files to try and fix a bug

[fading raptor]

It's Sad what happens to Shaun 🤦

[urban sail]

It's annoying that you can't send companions back to their original location once you've sent them to a settlement. I always make sure to not send Piper to a settlement so she returns to Diamond City.

[fading raptor]

It would be better if you could leave some were you found them, although strong is a great one.

If i find one morning can of Cram I'm throwing it down the throat of a ghoul 😂🤦

I think it would be hilarious if I could actually use the adjustable wrench as a weapon 😂

Anyone else playing today?

[flat gyro]

I've been away for a while, has Noir Penthouse been fixed?

[fading raptor]

[flat gyro]

Oh goodness

Yeah ikr 🤦

[flat gyro]

Hasn't it been like 4 months? 😅

[fading raptor]

Pretty much 😂😂

[fading raptor]

You playing right now?

[flat gyro]

Yeah, I'm playing on Survival

[fading raptor]

Fun fun fun

Ik we're to get all the good power armor

[flat gyro]

I'm picking up where I left off like 2 months ago. I had just gotten the X-01 from 38 Court.

[fading raptor]

Dang...

[fading raptor]

Add me

[flat gyro]

My equipped weapon is Overseer's Guardian, so I must've finished Vault 81 already

[fading raptor]

That's a great weapon!

Not gonna lie, that diamond city guard armor is great, wish I would have known how good it was when I first started playing

[flat gyro]

Looks like my load out is

• Overseer's Guardian
• Justice
• The Gainer
• Two-Shot Auto Laser Rifle
  My armor is:
• BoS Uniform
• Black Ops Chestpiece & R Shinguard
• Destroyer's Helmet & L Leg
• Overseer's L & R Armguards
• Military Backpack
• and full X-01 Mk. III

So I must've been collecting before I stopped lmao

Well, I just got a Legendary Handmade Rifle off of a Gunner, game is basically mine now.

Once I got to NW and get the ammo ofc

[fading raptor]

It's always good to catch up, I took a long break 😂

[flat gyro]

Right? I was gone two months and jumped back into an old game. I was like where was I again? Financial District? Glitch City ... greeeeeaaaatttt

[undone perch]

You can. Have them follow you, then have another follower follow you. It'll ask you where to send your previous companion, and simply decline. They'll then go back to their default location; Diamond City for Piper.

[urban sail]

Yeah, but if you've previously sent them to a settlement, they will return to the last settlement they were sent to instead of their default location.

[undone perch]

For me, they go back to their default place.

[fading raptor]

I had no idea what to even do anymore once I finally got back on but then I started catching back up 😂

Hi everyone, so i have not played fallout 4 in a little while, decided to jump back in, steam did an update, and now i cant get the game to load, and if i can somehow get it to load. i can play for about 3 min before it crashes. i have all the dlc, no mods, running it thru steam. i've uninstalled and re installed the game, moved it to diffrent hard drives, and still nothing, all my other games work, just not fallout 4. is there a fix or known issue?

[heady current]

Hello! Have you tried the steps in this article? https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/65578

[flint locust]

I have tried all them but weapons debries, ill give it a go, thank you

[lilac saffron]

guys how do i connect a wire to the stablized reflector platform i tried and it wont connect

please help

nvm i got it

[grand ferry]

Why is my pain train perk not working??

[flint locust]

so i tried all that and even updated, still cant get it to play without crashing

[granite arch]

Just downgrade. Lookup the Midright Ride guide. Its very easy to install

[heady current]

In that case, I would recommend contacting our support team at https://beth.games/3UMosYt so they can take a closer look at your files to see what could be causing the crash.

[lilac saffron]

ive been playing for 4 hours wtf

[weak coyote]

With what specifically

Is there plans for another update soon? Loading screens for PC is still trash.

[lilac saffron]

Just two days.

[crimson canopy]

Do some of the next-gen update quests early (free x02, a tesla cannon, heavy incinerator etc,) bc they give great loot

save danse if you side with BOS (most new players do) but id recommend siding with minutemen and saving the other factions

[jagged kindle]

you can also side with all 4 factions and make a save file at the point of no return to get all endings in one run

[dreamy garden]

Hello, I have a problem with the game Fallout 4, namely before the update I could throw a grenade, but after I couldn't, and there is no information in the settings what key is assigned to operate this type of weapon. I play this game through Steam on Windows, how can I get help with this?

[urban sail]

It should be the same as the weapon bash button, I believe the default on PC is the Alt key

[weak coyote]

By googling "fallout 4 controls"

[flat wraith]

Whats yall least favourite gun design, assault rifle is mine its god awful
My favourite design is marksman sniper rifle i guess

What is up with the assault rifle in fallout 4 it's so different compared to the other games design of it

[molten pilot]

it was meant for Power Armor but Bethesda has 0 clue how guns work

[flat wraith]

Ehh they should've added a proper assault rifle the design is so weird but I can see how it's used for power armor

[molten pilot]

it was supposed to be named a “Machine Gun” but development time managed to cut the chinese assault rifle and just renamed what we know now is the Assault Rifle

If it was named a “Light Machine Gun” i may be more sympathetic for its existences. I think the TV show made it look good

[flat wraith]

Yes I would too, does not look like an assault rifle, why couldn't they add one like the ones from the other games oh well
It did look better in the tv show I suppose but oh lord is it ugly in fo76 and fo4

[molten pilot]

The weapon crafting just imo really screwed over the quantity of weapons for Fallout 4. Most of FO4’s uniques are just legendary effect weapons

[flat wraith]

I wish there was more interesting weapons, all I find is odd pipe pistols

I did find a baseball bat that can fling enemy's and plays a sound clip, interesting but im not impressed it does not fling them that far was very disappointing

[molten pilot]

many of the weapons just arnt well made and many have recycled animations

Apperently Fo4 has over like 100 weapons but thats literally cause of modifications. Reality is theres like 10 weapons i actually use

[magic current]

heres a interesting question
dose the size of ya character matter?
like if you make the character fat they are more easy to hit than someone more skinny?

[velvet delta]

That's a good question, but I'm inclined to say no. Armor can though.

[magic current]

i guess a easy way to find out is to make two characters one fat and one skinny and then look at their collision boxes or what ever bethesda uses to register hits

[flat wraith]

I love when something blows up and your companion either ragdolls or just falls over

can anyone give me some help? I'm on my second playthrough and trying to beat the main storyline with the minutemen, while still allied with the railroad and BOS. I've completed the BOS quests up to "From Within" (the one where you bring Dr. Li to the BOS), I've not given the institute holotape to proctor Ingram (starting blind betrayal and therefore tactical thinking) , I've done 0 railroad quests, and I've done all minutemen quests up to and not including forming ranks.

[warped tiger]

Is there any placable trees using console commands in fallout 4? I'm building my atrium to be a garden.

[flat wraith]

What do you need help with?

Is it how to Continue the storyline with the minute men

Just go shoot up the institute and they'll send synths to the castle

[trail rock]

Yeah you need to get Banished From The Institute without making any other faction hostile. Easiest way is to shoot someone in The Institute. Storylines get complicated so keep your saves so you can go back if you make a mistake.

[lilac saffron]

Im with brotherhood so to finish the game i need to just continue brother hood missions the institiurr doesnt consider me hostile i can go therr

Do i need to do something also after i finish the game can i still do the side quests and build settlements

[flat wraith]

Yes you can still build settlements and do quests after completion the main storyline

[urban sail]

Some side quests won't be available though like the Covenant quest

[lilac saffron]

Imma do that one ig if there are any i should do tell me

[crimson canopy]

thanks

[crimson canopy]

What railroad quest should I stop at (before they become hostile with BOS)

[crimson canopy]

what railroad quest to stop at before they are hostile with BOS

[urban sail]

For the Railroad questline you need to do a lot of Institute quests, the Brotherhood will become hostile if you progress with Mass Fusion

[rigid bay]

Wait are you saying the quest Human Error can't be done after the main quest is complete? Would that be only if ||the Institute is destroyed||? (I wouldn't think that would affect them, though.)

[urban sail]

Honest Dan disappears from the game acter finishing the main quest, so the quest cannot be started, regardless of whether the Institute is destroyed.

[inner viper]

Greetings! May be a very stupid question - but is it true that there is a memory den-related only accessible if you visit the establishment before completing rescueing Nick Valentine quest?

[urban sail]

Yes, you can sit in one of the memory loungers and it will replay the scene where Shaun got kidnapped.

[dusty scroll]

If you play fallout 4 make Parker Quinn into vender

He sells pretty rare stuff, to bad you need to be level 50 to get him to be a one

[ripe latch]

Is it possible to get through vault 81 without acquiring the mole rat disease? I swear I remember a playthrough where I didn't get it at all, and I'm trying to replicate it again

Turns out, I managed to replicate it again! It took 17 (in game/save recorded) minutes, and a total of 24 full saves to prevent getting infected!

[inner viper]

It is possible if you simply avoid being bitten by molerats AND don't bring your companions with you.

The latter its because if your companion is bitten the game will nonetheless allocate mole rat disease debuff to the player

[ripe latch]

Ah, so that's why I kept getting it, I didn't know that this was the reason why I'd get it randomly. I took a companion in with me, because I thought I'd use them as a 'bite sponge', and so Piper could fire at them before they get near me

[jagged kindle]

can you lock yourself out of the minutemen ending by getting rid of preston with the raiders?

[inner viper]

AFAIK you can turn against Nuka-World raiders at any moment.

While Preston is marked as essential NPC

[trail rock]

You can trigger the quest Underground/Undercover and even do the first couple of tasks (contact Patriot for the Railroad) but then a couple of steps in going back to Railroad HQ Desdemona will say the BoS is about to attack, and that is when one side is hostile.

I had The Scribe, and he just completely vanished, but still takes up a space at the Castle. Any ideas?

[dusty scroll]

That has happened to me when you get somebody and they left, that’s due to a bug but the way I done this fix is ones you get him in the castle you don’t teleport after asking him for a job but you look for a building to get in and leave and that would fix the issue of him wanted to leave or bug out and when you make him a vender you put in another settlement and without putting him back in the same you ask him to be a vender and he be back in the castle and he has the fixed vender options

[warped inlet]

Anyone know where to find the flammable baseballs needed for the Baseball launcher (with flaming nozzle)? I can find regular modified baseballs on the original merchant but no one seems to have "BaseballF"/the ammo that's needed for the flaming nozzle

[stuck wraith]

the only ammunitions i see here are Modified Baseball and Modified Baseball Grenade.

[warped inlet]

When I attached a flaming nozzle to the baseball launcher I saw the ammo change to "BaseballF".

I wasn't able to find the ammo on any merchants, but I was able to make some thanks to a mod. Looks like the same mod added the ammo type (listed as a "fix")

[stuck wraith]

makes sense. digging slightly deeper, there is an omod for a fire nozzle with an override projectile that seems unused, aside from a variant model name. the only reference is the original omod.

[warped inlet]

Ah I see. Makes sense that he would make a new projectile for it I guess. The original baseballs persist on the ground. Wouldn't make sense for a flaming baseball to hang around

[stuck wraith]

i meant the base esl file has a baseball projectile and a baseball fire projectile, but the fire one isnt used, aside from the omod adding it as an override projectile. so there is no new ammo for it. someone would have to add it with a mod.

[warped inlet]

Ohhh

Oh dang. We also have a more in-depth Support team that can take a closer look at the problem, you can reach them by submitting a ticket here: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/home/product/695/fallout4cat/8/platform/6/techissuetype/700/downloadissue/Yes/answer/continuetosubmitticket

[granite arch]

You probably need to download the prerequesite mods in order to use the ones you're trying to use. Always read the descriptions first to make sure of this

I'm having some trouble with Fallout 4 on the Steam Deck OLED. I can't figure out the half framerate issue. Here's a reddit thread I made for the issue

https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1fasrhh/fallout_4_still_running_at_half_framerate/

I'd also like to note that ive tried to submit a ticket to bethesda, but i get an error that i exceeded the maximum file size of 1 byte my bad it says minimum. thats what i get for uploading an empty txt for the required dxdiag

Hello I just recently played fallout 4, should I sell or scrap weapons and armors that I find?

[silk oriole]

whats the best minutemen mods

[covert meteor]

I’m having a very specific issue with fallout 4
The game crashes every time deacon gets shot

[silk oriole]

go to fallout support

[covert meteor]

Nah I found the issue
Deacon wearing a helmet from militarised minutemen and getting shot is what specifically caused crashes

Other companions can wear them fine and taking it off him fixed it

[proven elm]

Here are links to our mods channels: #fallout-4-mods #1067505929534320700

[steady tundra]

If you're just looking to shut up the incessant Preston quests, search for the Who's the General mod on Nexus.
Veteran modder, up-to-date mod, and full explanation of changes. Most importantly, it does NOT break the minutemen questline or cause any other weirdness (that I am aware of).

[ocean pond]

you can.... just stop talking to preston

[steady tundra]

If only it were that simple.
Preston giving you another settlement quest can trigger from a pretty far distance away. You're busy hopping up Mama Murphy to get some of her in-sight, minding your own business, when BAM!, Preston comes around the corner from two houses down and immediately gives you another quest.
Besides, I want to do the minutemen questline. I just want them to NOT be shoved down my throat every time I come within 10 yards of Preston. The mod I mentioned does this, prefectly.

[ocean pond]

then... help the brotherhood.

[steady tundra]

Since that doesn't help me complete the minutemen questline, that's not an option.

[amber maple]

scrap

[magic current]

yeah XD its just funny that the BOS allow a enclave wearing sythcompanion having scavver become sentinel

[austere epoch]

Finally got cannibalism. I wish it hadn't been hidden behind endurance 8, because the companion reactions can be pretty awesome

Should have been endurance 5 or 6

[magic current]

with fallout 4 survival mode the BOS is best to go with right? second to the institute?

[molten pilot]

since its the only way for a sort of fast travel (vertibird rides) ig yea

[magic current]

yeah i think the railroad somehow gets birds aswell that or im mis-remembering again

[urban sail]

That's after you defeat the BoS I think. They claim some of the vertibirds

[steady tundra]

You can do the best good ending where you use the minutemen to destroy the institute.
Doing this puts you on good terms with the brotherhood (can still fast travel, sort of), railroad, and minutemen.

You'll have to search online for the deets. You need to advance up to a certain point in all the factions to make this work.

[dusty scroll]

I found a way to get Tina de Luca without killing her borther

[tawny coral]

get a mod that fixes her?

[dusty scroll]

No

[lilac saffron]

guys i finished the game also is a xo2 the best armor

[molten pilot]

the Hellfire and X-02 Mk4 variants are the best

[dusty scroll]

if only x-02 can cannon

in fallout 4

[molten pilot]

wdym

[dusty scroll]

x-02 isnt Canon

in fallout 4

[molten pilot]

The X-02 is basically the Enclave PA in fallout 3

[dusty scroll]

im talking about fallout 4 story

[molten pilot]

Unsure how canon creation club is but since the Enclave are officially now in the base game. They may as well be ig

[late stirrup]

I want a mod of this for F4 including the DLCs

[lilac saffron]

It can have cannons!!!?

[peak furnace]

What he was trying to state was that the X-02 power armor isn’t ‘canon’ or in better explanatory words that it isn’t true to the actual game.

[lilac saffron]

Damn

[flat wraith]

Guys I need help

I downloaded Capital wasteland mercenaries but the quest doesn’t start. The gunners and vertibird spawn but it’s static and can’t be interacted with, Sparrow’s corpse doesn’t spawn either

Is there a way I can redownload it? Is my save screwed? Or do I need to uninstall my game and reinstall everything again?

[boreal sphinx]

Hello everyone is this the right place to ask for help with fallout 4?

[silent hedge]

How do I get the final judgement?

[red totem]

im about to remind the support staff for the 3rd time that im on a steam deck because they keep sending me troubleshooting steps that only make sense on windows

[rigid bay]

Because that's the only platform they support. I've been running it on an Apple silicon Mac (M2 Pro). Runs pretty good, but brightness is all over the place, flickering at times.

I think we're kind of in the same boat. We're both using something which leverages WINE to get the game running. That said, many of the troubleshooting steps should still work. I know Steam OS tries to be a bit more like Windows than macOS does, largely for the sake of running Windows games. But I have a (virtual) C drive and a (virtual) registry, too. So aside from some very specific Windows stuff (like, "run the game in Windows 7 compatibility mode" — which would not apply to Fallout 4), it should be very workable.

I'm actually about to abandon the Steam version for the GOG version, since my ultimate "play" goal is Fallout London. Means I'll have to buy it again, but it's a great game and I don't mind throwing money at stuff I've gotten hundreds of hours of fun out of.

[red totem]

I don't understand. Why would they release an update specifically for Steam Deck if they don't support it?

[steady tundra]

They fully support it on Steam Deck.
First thing support will tell you to do is uninstall the game, delete all cache/saves/game data, reinstall the game from scratch, and see if the issue still exists without ANY mods installed.

[mystic lion]

My game crashed when I was building latrines for The Castle. I'm not mad that just seems extra funny to me.

[red totem]

they did bring up mods, and deleting all the ini files. they haven't asked me to reinstall anything yet

actually they've now acknowledged that its a steam deck. maybe ill get some actual steps now.

[topaz girder]

Am i the only one that finds it funny that ||the first weapon given to u in London is a knife||

[rigid bay]

The other person who replied to you may be right. Fallout 4 is certified for Steam Deck, so they might support it. I may be wrong in that it's only supported on Windows, but I know Windows is the only computing platform it was released for.

Steam OS is Linux, which means it doesn't have the proprietary APIs and whatnot (this is getting outside my area of expertise), so certain things will not work. However, Steam OS uses WINE to make certain things work. I would guess that to get "Steam Deck Certified," a game must not support any API calls that WINE is incapable of handling.

As I said, the game runs great on macOS using a similar tool, albeit one I had to configure myself (and still have to configure, apparently). I would also guess that Steam (and/or the game developer/publisher) handles a lot of those configurations. For example, I needed two Fallout4.ini tweaks, one to get the mouse working (something about background mouse?) and one to disable gore, because apparently that crashes WINE. (Not sure it's the same on Steam Deck. Doubt it though. That's kind of a big change.)

[placid mango]

When are they going to fix my beloved game. at this rate I think I’d prefer they scrap the next gen update and go back to the version it previously was. I’m on console obvs

[light grotto]

Hello Everbody. Do somebody know how to write the creators from the Creation Club?

[red totem]

im on pc and i agree with this

[boreal sphinx]

hey does anyone run the fallout 4 creation kit on steam?

[glacial shuttle]

Many people, better to ask the actual question you have about it.

[boreal sphinx]

sorry i just got it but it doesnt open it just runs for a second and then closes

will do sorry about that

[short tusk]

any new free stuff on creation club store ?

[waxen pebble]

No changes yet. Usually changes on Thursdays. But I've given up on predicting when the new deals will drop. Most likely it will be the exact same assortment of stuff discounted, with a few different ones from that assortment "featured." That's what they've been doing.

[magic current]

you ever vats something and then it seams your player moves across the battlefeild?

[magic current]

anyone know some decent mods that change the lighting of the game?

[covert meteor]

Wasteland workshop lets you lure enemies and put them in cages right?

Theoretically, I could create a prison for raiders n stuff
What would be a good settlement spot for that

[flat wraith]

Yes but the cages are well, concealed you can't see inside
Once you release them they start attacking and running around I do not think betta wave emitter works on humans caught in cages, you could try using mods though

So it might be tricky to put them in an actual prison like cage without them refusing to cooperate

[covert meteor]

Damb

[flat wraith]

Some mods add friendly raider settlers which you could use and command into the cages

[covert meteor]

I could see if there’s any mods that add different cages

Or I could just dress up normal settlers as raiders and put them in cages

[flat wraith]

Maybe but usually they're closed so you can't see what you've caught untill you open it
I haven't seen any personally but it's worth the look I guess

[flat wraith]

That works too but no raider face paint and dialogue

[sterile osprey]

yeah, Boston downtown is kinda cluttered
but again, big city

they did do a good job of having the different districts be pretty noticeable though, makes the big city much more manageable

[molten pilot]

Would u figure out where Hubris comics was even though it looks like any other building

[molten pilot]

you wouldnt know until meeting Kent at the Memory den to start the quest

[sterile osprey]

it's a minor location though?
It's a stumble-upon place

[sterile osprey]

or just walking to the common and "discovering" the location

it's a place like most in the glowing sea, there to reward folks who really go out and explore
like the Old Corner Bookstore, though that one is notable thanks to the freedom trail.

[molten pilot]

sure but i also argue its why some people criticize fallout 4 so heavily because they didnt feel motivated to go out and explore. due to bethesda’s main quest design of Point A to point B

[sterile osprey]

I guess you do have a point there, the main quests are pretty lame
but if you wanna explore, get a gun and follow a road

[molten pilot]

Thats not gonna be everyone, but objectively the way bethesda makes fallout main quest locations is a lot of Point A to Point B. And going from Concord to Diamond city is a HUGE jump.

Even Skyrim doesnt make you travel this far for a simple main quest objective

Studying bethesda’s previous games. I’ve never seen any of their games once advise the player to walk across the map immediately after their first mission

[sterile osprey]

I think that was to get you to do different things and let you find other places
idk, can't help but think of Carla being able to give you directions

[molten pilot]

What kept me engaged with Bethesda games was engaging in the sidequests while also getting back on track with the main quest

Once im out of concord, you’re basically gonna forget the main quest until you get to Diamond City.

The pacing is just very low stakes for its main quest. Which can either influence the player to

A. Do whatever side quest they bump into and lose focus on the main quest which puts a pause into the main story they were introduced too

B. Go straight to diamond city but end up ignoring side quests or exploring because the stakes feel so high.

[molten pilot]

No game should hold a player’s hand so tightly. But guidance should be just as important for players

[sterile osprey]

it's odd that there's a pretty straight road to DC

and it skips Lexington and Cambridge proper entirely

only thing you really come across is that outfit of raiders on the bridge

[molten pilot]

I am personally more a fan of going to a town or settlement and help solve their problems and learn their culture

[molten pilot]

Going to megaton theres a lot of side quests in there that help introduce the player around DC or just straight up blow up that bomb which introduces to Tenpenny Tower

[molten pilot]

my first playthrough i remember not doing any of their side quests because they either felt small or basic fetch quests.

Diamond City’s first quest there is finding Nick Valentine. But im sure some people skipped the science center or finding green paint for the wall.

[molten pilot]

2 Quests i remember extremely well in good-neighbor was Silver Shroud and No Nose

[sterile osprey]

DC also has Diamond City Blues and Confidence Man

Goodneighbour ofcourse has the Drinking buddy quest but is pretty underwhelming imo

oh and helping out Daisy, bringing you to Boston public library

[molten pilot]

I just cant name many towns in the commonwealth besides…

• DC
• Covenant
• Bunker Hill

Towns with vendors and a community of more than 3 people

[sterile osprey]

Sorry didn't see bunker hill there
yeah those are the big four

[molten pilot]

Yea the 4th being Brotherhood of Steel

[sterile osprey]

no the fourth is Goodneighbour?

[molten pilot]

make it 5 (after killing kellogg)

[sterile osprey]

Faction headquarters are something seperate, no?
because then we can count the Castle, Railroad HQ/Old North Church and the Institute

[molten pilot]

reason i count the brotherhood is because they feel like a pretty populated settlement.

Railroad are more like a gang

The Castle is up to whether you populate it.

[sterile osprey]

railroad hq is pretty populated

[molten pilot]

institute sure we can count that

[molten pilot]

vs a Stadium of people who have jobs as vendors, rely on trade, and run by authority cant rlly compare.

[sterile osprey]

Leader, second in command, runners, heavies, P.A.M. and ofcourse tinker tom.

[molten pilot]

the Railroad arn’t a society or a military. Its just freedom fighters that are merely spread out

[molten pilot]

Brotherhood have Chapters. They are a society dictated by cultural and social factors.

The Railroad have no culture. They free synths and blend in with society in DC or goodneighbor.

[sterile osprey]

I find the Railroad a much more interesting faction than the rest ngl
Their fight feels more real, this isn't some nameless huge military, they're people, they don't win every battle.
And they have interesting ranks and roles

[molten pilot]

Ye but my point being they cant be a society like DC or Goodneighbor. They lack a culture that identifies them besides having liberal ideas that r very small in comparison

The Rangers of the NCR free slaves. But that doesnt dictate the Republic’s culture

[molten pilot]

i would like the railroad more if they were an ally subfaction

[sterile osprey]

fair, we are discussing different things there with interesting faction and interesting culture

[molten pilot]

If i truly lead the minutemen, i’d want to have a proper alliance with the Espionage powers of the Railroad or the military air power of the Brotherhood

or Minutemen and Institute

[sterile osprey]

only thing I don't like about the Railroad is that the railroad part of their questline is too rushed and the institute part too dragged out

[molten pilot]

the only faction with real progression would be the Brotherhood. You climb their ranks and slowly earn diff paintjobs for T-60

But you’re immediately the General in the minutemen or promoted to director of institute because Father passes

[sterile osprey]

okay but you're also the only important soldier in the brotherhood it seems

you earn a new rank every other quest

[molten pilot]

true, thats the game’s fault for its main quest pacing but its def more than what the Railroad provide i think

[sterile osprey]

it's hard to fit such a progression into a such a plot I think
no matter the faction

[molten pilot]

• You’re an initiate by Danse after going on an operation with him

• Boarding the prydwyn, Maxson honors you as a knight

• Maxson wont grant paladin rank until you execute Danse as a final test

• Stopping the institute grants Sentinal rank

imo its paced pretty well and you actually explore brotherhood ranks well

[sterile osprey]

interestingly enough, there are more ranks like Knight-Captain that you just skip

[molten pilot]

Its def better than being the Brotherhood’s errand boy just to learn Power Armor Training in New Vegas or Fallout 3 where instead of feeling like a member, you’re a pet

Doing the Nevada chapter’s quests of fixing their dumb AC is why i wanna bury them

[molten pilot]

The Minutemen with actual ranks and fighting a war against idk the Brotherhood would be an interesting plot

i’d like a parody of the American Revolution in this game

[tough umbra]

this me new acc guys

[main chasm]

Can someone who has edit access to this wiki change the part about aluminum in fort hagen? I’ve scoured the inter webs and did a thorough search through fort Hagen and there’s definitely no 108 aluminum in there. 😂

https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Aluminum_(Fallout_4)

[velvet delta]

I think anyone can edit that site, you just have to sign in. I did it once.

My guess it they have some one fact checking new entries

[main chasm]

I’m assuming instead of fort hagen they meant somewhere else. I’ll try to fix it later. Normally I wouldn’t care but I wasted enough time that it annoyed me.

[strange slate]

I agree with this a bit but it makes getting power armor way too easy

The Mojave Chapter need to actively gain your trust in order to give you power armor. You do like one quest for the Eastern Chapter to actually gain power armor and the BOS’s loyalty.

It’s better explored in 4 but that could also just be that the BOS were one of the minor factions in New Vegas

[molten pilot]

Power Armor in general is already too easy to get in Fallout 4. This is more of a game design balance issue than one factions fault

[vernal ridge]

Hello everyone. I need some advice with an issues in Vault 88:

1. most of the settlers (3 of 4) ordered for guarding duties don't go to their posts standing at the atrium instead, only one settler mounts it (the post statined at the main entrance)
2. most of the settlers can't find their way to their rooms stationed at the 4th floor of the vault
3. sometimes one of the settlers dies from the unknown reason, I've mentioned two cases of the death and in all of them settlers had a good armor on them, so they couldn't be easily killed by spawned raiders or mutants, also there were no blood spots nearby
   So how should I reorganize and rebuild the vault for better settlers pathfinding? What things should be avoided? And what may be the reason of settlers' death?
   BTW my vault isn't fully completed and occupies only the main location where railroad cars stand. There are no doors to other locations so the NPCs have full access to all sectors.

[jagged kindle]

how do I open the gates at the mechanists lair if the game is broken and doesnt let Ada open it?

also I cant use console commands because im doing achievements

is there any noclipping bug I can use? or sid bethesda patch all the bugs that can help people and ignore the softlocking bugs

[rotund rain]

Does explosive damage deal an extra 90 damage? I read that it deals 15 damage to every limb hit

[violet pier]

Hi

[olive pond]

whats best way to get fusion cores? I set up a water farm and got loads but I don't know if there is a faster way

[flat wraith]

No not really you won't need 100 fusion cores lol, I'm sure you'll have the caps to buy them if needed, water gets you a ton of caps if you can sell the water, I have my settlement water at 999 and I get a decent amount of caps from the water produced. Honestly you shouldn't be too worried, you can also sell jet for caps it's only fertiliser and plastic to make it

But I dont use power armor, there's perks that increase the power time of fusion cores

[steady tundra]

If you plan on living in power armor or having a Gatling laser by your side at all times, you may need 50 or so.
If you are playing a build that doesn't really utilize the above you'll need less than 5.

[olive pond]

ok thanks

[rigid bay]

If you can hit six body parts and 15 dmg is what you're getting, then yes.

This is why the Spray n' Pray is an officially sanctioned cheat weapon that makes the game more or less fun depending on your take on it. Either way it's hilariously broken (and I'm here for it).

I think 15 is the base damage of the explosion, not counting the .45 round you're probably not hitting with anyway, because as a fully automatic gun, the bullet's damage is heavily nerfed.

You can get more damage, both with the Demolitions perk, and with the Explosives bobblehead that you find in Saugus Ironworks. One or both (I forget) can also increase the damage radius making it easier for you to hit multiple body parts. Each body part caught in the AoE takes however much damage done.

You can also increase the damage of the .45 round with the Commando perk, but the base damage of the bullet is so nerfed that it's not going to make a difference. If the bullet damage is 3, then doubling it only gives you 6 (I'm not sure what it actually is) and that only matters if you're putting a lot of them in your target. Ten rounds, 30 vs 60 is more significant, but you aren't going to be using that gun that way.

The most common usage of Sn'P is to aim between the feet and hit both legs and the torso for triple your explosive damage. The bullet isn't hitting so doesn't count. If it's got a tail, it's 4x the base explosive damage. If the legs are very short, you might also catch the arms (smaller creatures, Robobrains perhaps).

Another is to aim for center mass and either hit it (counting the bullet in the damage) or hit something nearby (like a wall). This has the potential of splashing the arms, legs, torso, and head for 6x base explosive damage. This is good against medium sized creatures being taken unawares. I'd favor the ground shot for something coming after me (like a pack of feral ghouls).

[tough umbra]

spray tommy gun is so fun

guys is far harbour worth it

[waxen pebble]

YES! Far Harbor is a better "Fallout game" than Fallout 4. It's got good story telling, choices, and different consequences. Also, take Nick Valentine with you. There's a discovery story and special dialog for him in there.

[tough umbra]

does it have a long story too

[jagged kindle]

how do I open the doors at the mechanists lair if they’re bugged without using console commands

[ionic lark]

any date for the next update of the creative club?

[placid mango]

Do you mean the next selection of free items?

[ionic lark]

sure or new deals

[waxen pebble]

Kind of, yeah. It will take a while to get through.

[waxen pebble]

They've been updating CC about every 2 months, around the first Thursday of the 2nd month. That should have been last week. Now, we're past Thursday of the 2nd week of the month. This is why I don't try to predict it anymore.

[ionic lark]

darn i want to buy noir penthouse but not at that price

[waxen pebble]

I know how you feel. There's only about 3 CC things left I want to get. I keep hoping they'll put something different on sale. But, they've had nearly the same stuff discounted for almost a year. They just rotate different stuff onto the "Featured" page from the stuff that's already discounted. I don't think CC is really being curated anymore.

[placid mango]

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m sure the deals and free items change on the first Thursday of every month, I swear they did but not entirely sure

[waxen pebble]

Used to be that way. For at least the last couple of years, it's been every 2 months. Or, whenever they feel like it.

If on PC. A mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager allows you to set up different profiles with different saves for games.

I don't know for console.

I would like to do institute ending but it's annoying how no companions other then x6-88 can join you in there

[tough umbra]

If you click this all your accs will be gone

@strong yacht yo bro this link actually dangerous af

[dusty scroll]

Right around the mid ending make a save and you can go back doing a few quest to end the game without making a new game

and you can keep the weapons and rare items you might never see again

The wiki can be wrong sometimes

[jagged kindle]

how do I open the doors at the mechanists lair if they’re bugged without using console commands

[fresh elk]

sorry bro cant help, i only use console command when that happens

[urban sail]

If you load from the main menu you can choose which character you want to load a save from

[tough umbra]

thanks

[vernal ridge]

Won't help much. Because with real life issues playing the whole faction story takes time.

[dusty scroll]

Ahh understandable

Just do it when you feel like it and half way into picking who you want to side with saving the game is what I did to get all the ending with keeping all my super rare stuff

[weak coyote]

Make your own story.
Ignore the main quest and roleplay.
Example :
1.a scavver survivalist, explore and loot everywhere, set up a trading outpost, or robot scrapyard.
2. go straight to nuka world from the vault, or set up a raider outpost, raid,loot and kill, go to nuka world when leveled, roleplay a raider.
Get creative.

I'd recommend an alternate start mod like Start Me Up which lets you choose from many different occupations and starting locations so you don't have to play as a Vault Dweller.

[weak coyote]

Would love that mod, but never found one on consoles.

[drifting tundra]

Sad they broke fallout 4 for current gen consoles

[storm locust]

i had started a Survival run on my PS5 for that but stopped after finding out how bad it was because i didn´t wanna risk having those issues so i wanted to wait but i have literally not heard a single thing about them fixing the game on there lol

[steady tundra]

I was rooting for the next-gen version all the way up until some very talented, seasoned modders came out and said that, even after the patches thus far, it is still a stability regression when compared to the GOTYE. Old GOG version (on PC) is where it's at, currently.
I hope the next-gen version does get fully fixed, eventually.

[storm locust]

i was looking forward to getting the Enclave PAs and stuff but eh

that and Survival is rough lol.

[steady tundra]

Unless there's a PS5 mod that reenables quicksave it would be REALLY rough.

[storm locust]

i didn´t get any mods i just went in

[weak coyote]

There is... Saving survival mod.
You don't really need it though, there are beds everywhere.

[steady tundra]

If you know the game, yes.
If you don't know the game there is definitely not enough beds. Especially when considering the buggy next-gen version.

[storm locust]

i mean...."there´s bed everywhere" doesn´t feel like a good argument when they all get you sick lmao

[steady tundra]

I'm currently playing a radiation-averse and chem-averse character on a modified survival. All radioactive food just gets sold, no chems except Rad-X and Radaway. He'll use Stimpacks in dire situations but generally uses purified water and cooked food for healing. Anything that greatly adds to your chance of getting ill (like sleeping on a mattress in the woods) is a no-go.
