no fucking way

i tried to download mods for fallout4 from nexusmods

and was unable to do so for like 2 days

#

turns out one of nexusmods subsites is banned in my country'

so much brainfuckery just to copy url and paste it in circumvention utility

i didn't realize siding with House meant ||the Kings would be wiped out :(||

hmm i wanna do a Din Djarin mandalorian build in New Vegas but who would he side with

unkempt mica
#

He'd go independent (Yes Man).

daring garnet
#

ye ok that sounds right

upper thunder
upper thunder
#

although, it was like a year from when s1 finished fimiling till when it came out

#

and who knows if they are doing tie-ins with other releases

daring garnet
#

what would Din's SPECIAL stats be ? i wanna be a guns focused build (so i can use the Anti Materiel Rifle in place of his rifle) so Agility should he pretty high. low Luck seems likely too (him and Grogu crashing on that ice planet, the Razor Crest getting blown up, etc) but idk about the others

near ember
#

High endurance

#

Even with all that armor he's got on, the fact that he can take the internal impact of so many blaster rounds smacking into his armor, he's gotta be really resilient

#

His charisma is probably below average, but he'd still have companions along with him. Maybe ED-E would be grogu.

daring garnet
#

yes ! i was also thinking ED-E

#

i might try installing Viva New Vegas on my steam deck

#

im trying to install Viva New Vegas, but the guide im following tells me to insert a command, which is a problem because it's telling me to push keys even though im on a steam deck which doesn't have a keybord lmao. bringing up the console application works but when i paste the command nothing happens

yeah it says that one is outdated so im using the one it recommends instead

also i dont have a windows computer lol

Steam Deck has a virtual keyboard, or you can plug in a USB one.

has anyone found a way to alt-tab safely out of Fallout 4 without messing up the resolution?

#

I'd like to get back into it, but i tend to switch between games and my browser/discord

#

and whenever I alt-tab to anotehr program, F4 switches to some odd resolution

#

makes it hard to play hahah

unkempt mica

Check if it supports "Fullscreen Windowed" mode, that should help.

wait, so soon?

#

huh, I'll have to read up

upper thunder
#

the trailer seems neat. and fishing should be fun, but half the cool stuff is Fallout 1st only. darn. Ah well, just gotta ignore the battlepass and enjoy fishing I suppose.

DO we know what the Cannery is?

unkempt mica
#

Yes! You learn recipes, find cans & clean them, then you can take certain food items and run them through the cannery to make Canned versions that never go bad.

upper thunder
#

yooo

#

that's fun

unkempt mica
#
#

half the cool stuff is Fallout 1st only
One thing you can do is play the game normally, and once you've finished hitting Rank 100, buy one month of Fallout 1st and then claim all those unique rewards.

upper thunder
#

that's a fair point but I think I don't play enough to make it worthwhile haha

#

its' 23 AUD for 1 month of F76

#

That's more than I paid for the entire game lol

unkempt mica
#

Ah, that's fair.

upper thunder
#

yeah, not sure if AUS tax or just currency works out that way haha

#

Is there a way to get the cannery that isn't the battlepass? Presumably it'll be gold bullion after the season i guess

unkempt mica
#

Yeah, that's usually how these work. If you get it from the pass it's account-wide, otherwise it'll eventually be a bullion item per-character.

upper thunder
#

Ahh i see, that makes sense

#

Well I was already planning to dive in this season, so see how we go haha

#

by "this" i mean the Fishing season on june 3rd

#

Actually, is this earlier than planned?

#

I think the roadmap had it for late June

unkempt mica
#

Yeah, seems they bumped it up to try and keep a more consistent schedule for season releases.

upper thunder
#

huh, makes sense, i wonder if the game is doing well atm

unkempt mica
#

Everything I've seen indicates it's doing well enough to continue.

upper thunder
#

yeah, looks like they got a huge boost in 2024, and then have been sustaining 10k Active on steam for the past few months

#

that's pretty good

#

and it's on PS4/5 and XBOX as well, so who knows if it's bigger there too

unkempt mica
#

Yup. I think it even surprised Bethesda how well it's doing. The TV show really brought a lot more people into the game.

nods probably a good thing, as they'll be a bunch of hotfixes for bugs on day 1 anyway

#

Hope you do enjoy when you get to it

#

I might take the opportunity to get some Main Quests done

Also means that today is the final day to burn those tickets for this season.

upper thunder
#

true true

#

though, I don't think i have any tickets?

#

I dont' think I played much at all haha

unkempt mica

If you got any ranks at all, you have at least a few tickets for use on the first page.

fair enough, and y'all were correct

Why do you enjoy Fallout Equestria so much? (/tone genuine)
I've not read much of it myself, so I'm curious

misty iris
#

Was big on both fallout series of games and mlp. When I found out someone mixed them together I listened to the audio book out of curiosity and to my surprise it was very very well done. You should listen or finish reading the rest and try the other stories as well if you ever got the time.

#

I wish I could just explain to you why I enjoy it so much but that would be so much text if truly curious and don’t have time to read just watch some book reviews on it

upper thunder

fair enough

tl;dw "Travel Agent" Perk now lets you fast travel while overencumbered, it just costs more caps depending on how overweight you are.

Tomorrow we will be sharing an early look at upcoming Combat and Perk balancing changes that will arrive in the next Public Test Server update (not releasing tomorrow).

These changes include (but are not limited to): providing a significant boost to underperforming weapons, significant increases to melee weapon damage, changes to make the V.A.T.S formula more consistent, and improving the feel of manual aiming.

We're excited for you all to dive into these changes and share your feedback.

#

God damn, wasn’t expecting any weapon buffs lol, finally.

Bethesda Game Studios, the award-winning creators of Skyrim and Fallout 4, welcome you to Fallout 76. Twenty-five years after the bombs fell, you and your fellow Vault Dwellers—chosen from the nation’s best and brightest – emerge into post-nuclear America on Reclamation Day, 2102. Play solo or join together as you explore, quest, build,…

Fallout 76 is $10 USD right now. Good price if you just want to try it out.

unkempt mica
#

People are freaking out about some of the changes. I'm waiting to see, because folks freaked out over some of the earlier changes to rifle perks and it turned out great.

unkempt mica
#

I'm really hoping this change does not go through though:

Ultracite Ammo is no-longer included in contextual ammo drops. Instead, you’ll receive randomized ammo.

upper thunder
#

oh dear, so you'd have to craft all the good stuff again? bleh

#

not that i have any, but i can imagine that being tedious

unkempt mica
#

Especially because Ultracite ammo requires Flux to craft. That's horribly expensive. So either they need to eliminate the Flux requirement, or roll back this change.

#

Homebody
Rank 1: Improve benefits of being well rested.
Dev Note: Well Rested grants +2 AGI, Kindred Spirit grants +2 PER, Lovers Embrace grants +2 CHA.

Nice, this basically eliminates the need to build some of the buff items in a camp.

#

Revenant
Rank 1: Players you revive have +25% damage for 2 min.

Healing Hands
Rank 1: Players you revive are fully healed.
Okay, damn, these are really good. They'll likely have a cooldown between uses, but still.

#

Bloody Mess
Rank 1: Bleeding enemies you kill have a chance to explode based on your LCK.
Rank 2: Bleeding enemies you kill have a chance to explode for more damage based on your LCK.
Rank 3: Bleeding enemies you kill have a chance to explode for more damage based on your LCK
Dev Note: Added damage to the gore explosion that scales with each rank and player level. This explosion does not damage you. Increased chance to proc with chance increasing with Luck. Bloody Mess has a small chance to proc without the perk based on Luck.

Hm, that's a complete rework. Makes Bleed effects more useful if you're doing something with lots of enemies around, but... I'm not sure that's useful.

sudden cloak
# unkempt mica Especially because Ultracite ammo requires Flux to craft. That's horribly expens...

Rad storms are slightly more common across Appalachia.
Nuke Flora such as Bomb Berries and Flash Ferns now have a chance to appear in Rad Storms.
Glowing creatures now have a chance to appear in Rad Storms.
Glowing creatures will often scale slightly above players’ levels, up to level 100.
Glowing creatures now scale more appropriately for lower-level players.
Glowing creatures can drop Hardened Mass and similar nuke-only materials during Rad Storms, including glowing creatures that would have spawned regardless of the Rad Storm.

upper thunder
#

how do you have enough rad resistance for a rad storm btw? is it just late tier armour and PA?

sudden cloak
#

Either good PA (with drugs), the nuclear suits, or the Chinese Stealth Armor.

upper thunder
#

Wild, so even with PA you need Rad-X?

sudden cloak
#

Yeah. Most of them need it to be on the safe side.

upper thunder
#

so you need somewhere around 400-500 rad resistance for a storm

sudden cloak
#

If you can get the Chinese Stealth Armor, it's the best of all worlds (decent protection, same as nuclear suits for Rads, and weighs just 10 lbs).

#

The nuclear suits and CSA have 1k rad protection.

upper thunder
#

as in Hazmat suits?

#

yeah, I'll work my way towards the CSA, or maybe jsut experiment by gameplay with PA

#

I think i have a full set of excavator armour

#

so there's no reason I can't at least attend a nuke event to test it against the high radiation levels

sudden cloak
#

As long as you bring Rad X, you'll be fine regardless. Just watch food and drink levels.

upper thunder
#

nods, will do!

unkempt mica
#

Radstorms aren't actually that dangerous, if you have any Rad resistance at all. Nuke zones, those'll kill ya without Power Armor, a Hazmat suit, or Chinese Stealth Armor.

upper thunder
#

oh good to know! thx

#

I should keep some Rad-X on my person haah, i tend to sell em for spare caps

unkempt mica
#

Note that if you have any mutations, Rad-X will suppress them for a time.

upper thunder
#

oh? that's a thing?

unkempt mica
#

Yup. And unless you have the Starched Genes perk, RadAway can randomly remove your mutations entirely.

Prime Receivers

Prime Receivers have been modified to be vastly more powerful, but overall more expensive to use. Not only will players need to more actively seek out Ultracite ammo (see the Ammo Changes section below), but weapons with Prime Receivers will be a bit harder to handle than before.
The major changes for Prime Receivers are as follows:

+100% bonus damage instead of +25%.
20% longer range
+25% AP cost
Higher recoil and maximum cone of fire.
10% slower rate of fire.
#

just reading through this previously linked article due to a westek vid

#

I didn't realise that Ultracite ammo is planned to be double damage

that then makes sense why they'd make it no longer drop from contextual ammo drops

Quick rundown:

  • Relaxed Build Rules

    • Relaxed Build Rules are activated for Adventure Mode. Unleash your creativity by letting your C.A.M.P. items float, intersect with each other, or be unsupported!
  • Workshop 2.0

    • Coming along in this update is a complete rework of the Workshop menu! With a refreshed focus on findability and organization, this new UI should make it a lot easier for you to get to the items you need. We’ve been testing this internally and are excited for you to get your hands on it.
    • New Main and Subcategories
    • One of the first things you’ll notice (other than the new UI), is the consolidated main categories and new subcategories which will host all your Workshop items. We believe that this new categorization will allow you to get to what you’re looking for a lot quicker than before.
  • Modify Menu

    • The Modify Menu, your main tool for customizing your C.A.M.P. has also received a facelift, providing direct access to editing features.
  • Combat Balancing Changes

    • Last week we gave an early look at the balancing changes arriving in this update. There’s a lot happening in the combat/perk space, so please take some time to read the article!
    • For those of you who have already given it a read and shared your early thoughts, thank you! To go along with the start of the PTS, the team wanted to make further adjustment to LMGs based on the conversations we’ve seen.
  • We are increasing the base damage of LMGs and introducing a way for you to craft 5.56, .308, or a .45 receiver on the weapon so you can pick the ammo the weapon uses based on your needs.

  • Caravans

    • We're restructuring the objectives in Caravans to ensure players will get their rewards if the Brahmin is left alive, even if they are unable to complete the route. The event will now take a maximum of 7 minutes to complete.
    • Caravans will now reward all players with the same number of Supplies, regardless of who started the event.
  • Item Locking

    • You can now protect your favorite items by locking them. Lock your favorite items to protect them from accidental sale, scrap or trade! We’re excited to bring you this highly requested feature.
upper thunder
#

oh amazing

#

those all sound so good

unkempt mica
#

Mhm! Going to be a lot better for CAMP building, the LMG change is very welcome, the fix to Caravans will actually make them worth doing, and being able to lock items so you don't lose them is something we've wanted since Beta.

They're rolling back the Ultracite ammo changes. So it'll return to being a contextual drop... but in exchange, they're nerfing the damage of Prime recievers to be no better than the other hard-hitting recievers.

Later they'll reimplement the big damage buff & remove contextual drops for it, but only once they've figured out a good balance for spawning Flux & crafting the ammo.

There's a bunch of customizations for the Pip Boy in F76. I've got a Mothman paint on one character, and a Raider paint on another.

"We have announced the fact that it possibly exists, maybe."

That may mean they're actually getting ES6 into a playable enough state they can start planning on FO5.

#

i can respect Todd Howard's drive to be the director on all these games

clear swan
#

tho I've only played it and 4 so far

upper thunder
#

fair enough! I'm hoping to stick with it at some point haha

#

I tend to like drifting from game to game, but it makes playing one long RPG kinda difficult

#

What made it so fun in particular for you Merc?

clear swan
#

I like pretty much everything about it more than 4 except for the crafting and gunplay

#

nv's quests and characters feel hugely more interesting and memorable than 4

#

4 feels like a total grind, especially with all the randomly generated radiant quests and randomly generated npcs with random lines, randomly generated loot, and so on

#

and even most of the non radiant quests feel copy pasted and generic

#

and the world just feels shallow overall imo

#

I still haven't finished it yet though, we'll see

#

that's not to say I hate 4 though, there's definitely some thing it does better than nv
the primary gameplay loop of walking around and shooting stuff, leveling up, crafting is way more fun than nv admittedly

#

and I do love all of 4's companions too, they're all fun and well written. I've been vibing with Piper and Nick so far

undone crown
#

NVs ones are theoretically better but that is a matter of taste to be fair

#

in general tho, NV's world always felt more real to me

#

not perfect or anything, and the game is definitly dated these days, but the main conflict is plausible, the reason for you being involved is far more personal to the player, the factions you meet have logical reasons to exist (even the raiders have some backstory) the clothing/faction disguise system is... functional, impressive it even exists in an RPG from 2007, even the "bad" dlcs in NV are interesting to explore and discuss themes and ideas that outshine fallout 3/4's entire story, non-combat skills are far more useful...

#

gunplay and graphics are definitely dated

#

i do genuinely enjoy 4 but it really felt like a lot of the point of the game was lost
when finding an aluminium can is more exciting than finding a fatman portable mini-nuke launcher, you done fucked something up

upper thunder
#

fair enough, thanks for that!

undone crown
#

i do wish NV got a remaster

#

but given oblivion got one, its not out of the question

upper thunder
#

That'd be pretty cool to see, yeah

undone crown
#

oh, mods
its got many
and its literally the same engine as fallout 3, so clever folks build a mod that lets you play both games! at the same time!

unkempt mica
#

I just hope they bring a lot of stuff from F76 into Fallout 5. So many good QoL changes & useful items, plus the CAMP building is so much better than the base building in F4

undone crown
#

i have zero hope for 5. 4 was a real step back overall, a trend that continued with starfield

#

are either game bad? no

unkempt mica
#

Yeah, I'm shocked at how much they apparently screwed up Starfield.

undone crown
#

but like

#

both games clearly had so many good ideas, buried under a mountain of shit ones

unkempt mica
#

Mhm. I think when we see ES6, that'll give us an idea of what's coming for F5.

clear swan
undone crown
#

uuuh

#

yeah

#

ok

#

i can see that

#

definitly a limitation of the time

clear swan
#

like in nv every npc basically just delivers their lines completely deadpan

clear swan
#

each dlc has some amazing moments and some bad moments

#

I feel like they nailed the writing and design (as always) with the dlcs, but really dropped the ball on some gameplay aspects

#

like dead money is an incredible story, but the gameplay is just soooo frustrating and drags on

#

and OWB is the funniest thing I've ever seen... for the first 30 mins

undone crown
#

thats why i said "bad" in quotations
dead money is pretty great on its first playthrough but a bit rough replaying it, and honest hearts is less interesting than the others
old world blues is phenomenal tho

clear swan
#

then all the jokes evaporate and it's just an endless grind

#

and god forbid you didn't bring enough ammo or dont have energy weapons maxxed out because every enemy is a bullet sponge

#

and there. are. HUNDREDS OF THEM

clear swan
undone crown
#

maybe
its been a while since i played NV unmodded, my memories are probably fuzzy

clear swan
#

I do love the location though, it's absolutely gorgeous

#

I love that it has pure and clean rain fettiwow

#

it's so pretty

#

and lonesome road was fun, but Ulysses' cryptic speeches got old real fast to me

#

also it didn't feel as special as DM or OWB imo

undone crown
#

thats fair

clear swan
#

it gets a pass just for the elite riot gear though

#

undone crown
#

lol

#

hard agree

#

i ahve a secret tho:

#

i never played lonesome road

also I felt the deathclaws in that dlc were complete overkill though
when it takes multiple fatman shots to kill a deathclaw, somethin aint right

i know!

#

i still havent played one of the DLCs for fallout 3 either, the boat one with tribals or whatever

#

oh I uh don't really feel like playing 3
not until they release a remaster at least

#

also praying to the gods for a NV remaster DORIME

undone crown
#

3 has a lot of great moments too!

clear swan
#

I honestly don't trust bethesda with fallout. Obisidian are the only ones who can write it well

#

fo4 has convinced me about that

#

actually scratch that, I don't trust bethesda at all tbh

#

not with the likes of starfield coming out

undone crown
#

trust me, the quality in writing between 3 and 4 is night and day
3 was better
4 has its moments but on the whole 3 was better
tho its main quest sucks

clear swan
#

I heard that a remaster of 3 is in the works

#

I think I'll wait for that

undone crown
#

that would track

#

and is fair

clear swan
#

I'm reasonably certain it will come out as there's been ample evidence, and especially with the success of oblivion they'd be stupid not to

as for NV, we can only pray DORIME

# clear swan and I'm not a huge fan of mmos

It's not really a traditional MMO. Servers only pop up when there's enough players to justify a new one, and each server maxes out at 26 players.

You can do 90% of the game solo, usually public events are the only time you really need other players to help out. And the player vendor system is great.

If you pick it up on PC, I can help you with some gear.

how about new vegas?

upper thunder
#

Idk, I've tried new vegas a few times, but It doesn't really grab me for some reason.

#

It might just be the graphical style, or that I never got to New Vegas (location) in it

#

I might watch a playthrough of it, just to see the story unfold, as that's what people seem to praise about it anyway

clear swan
#

I'd say it's not really particularly about the story, or not about the main story anyway

#

it''s more about just how the whole world is designed, how it all fits together, and also lots of awesome side missions

#

the main storyline itself isn't all that exciting, it really just boils down to "do I help these guys, these guys or these other guys?" and not much else

upper thunder
#

ah ok

#

I think part of it was I don't know/see any of those things given I didn't get far in. I think on my first time out of the starting town, i walked towards some people, stepped on mines and died. Then on a reload, i avoided the mines, only for the people to throw dynamite atm me anyway hahah

#

The like, town that get's taken over down the road was neat, though it was more just clearing house than anything else.

oh yeah I do think the game has a pretty slow start

but once you get into vegas it really picks up the pace

mayeb even a little before then

upper thunder
#

what sort of systems/missions can you get?

clear swan
#

in terms of gameplay they're nothing groundbreaking, but what's fun about them is that there's always some kind of interesting story or chain of events that unfolds

#

and sometimes there's way more behind a seemingly small quest than meets the eye at first

#

and a ton of quests are interlinked

the only way I could describe it is just really good writing and worldbuilding

New map expansion coming in December

unkempt mica
#
Milepost Zero will be retired, with the character Windy relocating to Highway Town. [...]

Yes, you read that right. Skyline Valley has apparently become too dangerous for the caravans and has been relocated to Highway Town in Ohio.

Bill LaCoste said when asked about Milepost Zero and Skyline Valley:

“So we are going to be shutting down Milepost Zero. We are moving Windy over to Highway Town, so you'll be able to gather a lot of the stuff there. But yeah, that's pretty much it. I believe the number of raiders and the volatility around Skyline Valley has caused Milepost Zero to rethink their commitment to making caravans around the Skyline Valley area.”

Jon Rush added:

“Skyline Valley has become too hostile, even for the Blue Ridge Caravan Company.”

We will probably find out exactly what this means for the caravans and supplies at the PTS.
#

So whatever bug prevented them from adding this NPC to Skyline Valley, they're giving up and putting her in the new town instead.

near ember
#

I recall that Tactics is like soft canon, but I could be wrong

#

Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel is definitely noncanon tho

i feel like even if Bethesda came out and said BoS was canon most people would still be like "no it isn't" lol

Heyo, for fallout 4 players, do you know any way to not update Fallout 4 when the anniversary patch comes in? I've only got one mod, the Unoffical patch for bug fixes, but I don't want something to break if the update comes through

#

Not to mention i have no idea how long it'll be for the Bugfix patch to get an update to the new version

undone crown
#

On steam you can turn off automatic updates, but im in bed so you'd need to find that setting yourself

upper thunder
#

I'll try that, I think I've seen the setting somewhere

near ember
#

If all else fails, you could try updating and then wait shortly for a downgrader to be made if one doesn't already exist. Try other options first, but that is also an option.

upper thunder
#

ah yeah, I'll see how it goes with the updates limited (it seems you can't disable them entirely?) and if It updates anyway see how it goes with the Downgraders/bugfix patches etc as they come out

It's not been very clear, but if you own the previous GOTY edition of Fallout 4, the only thing you're missing is the Creation Club pack. So you can pick that up for $20 USD if you want that stuff, otherwise you can ignore this Anniversary Edition.

#

The only reason to buy the Anniversary Edition is if you never bought Fallout 4. And the only reason to buy the Upgrade is if you own Fallout 4 but not all the official expansions.

oh i see, that's good to know

Chessboard is back!

#

The chessboard is actually a Display that you can put damn near anything on. So you can take random junk from your stash & display on it, and with Free placement in your CAMP menu, you can sink the actual board into something to make the junk look like it's sitting on a table or whatever.

Honestly, worth watching this video to see what stuff you might want.

ooh interesting, looks like a cool gun

#

I think I was trying to build up to Shotguns/Lever action rifle, but I couldn't get more lever actions to get the modification plans.
Is the best way to get modification plans just to build a ton of level 1 versions of the gun and dismantle em?

unkempt mica
#

For most guns, yes. Some guns the only way to learn the modifications is to buy/find the plans.

#

Ah ok, fair enough. Just means more scrap hunting, which is something I enjoy anyway lol

#

I've never played Mass Effect, but is it like Fallout 4?

unkempt mica
#

No. Mass Effect is more of an action game (moreso in 2 & 3). It's not as sandboxy, you can choose where you want to go & do missions as you want, but you're travelling between specific locations via your ship, then going through a ground map to either speak to people or shoot things. Each game is slightly different, but overall it's much more focused on the specific story & playstyle it favors.

upper thunder
#

yeah, I can't speak to 2 & 3, but 1 was fairly linear to begin with, with talking to your crew and a less linear "fly your ship around locations" section throughout the middle

#

Combat is fairly straight forward? though it had cool upgrades to weapons with 1 or 2 slots per weapon

#

It's not like fallout 4's modding system though , with every part changeable

  • Every day from December 5,12 PM EST until December 12 you’ll see an extra challenge called “Gain a Level” and the S.C.O.R.E. you will be awarded for completing that challenge will be doubled.
  • Free SCORE booster (available in the shop until Dec 9)
  • Caps-a-Plenty until Dec 15 (vendors will accept more items sold by you, doubling the daily cap limit)
  • Starting on December 9, a free Vault-Tec Supply Packages will be available in the Atomic Shop every day until December 30. So make sure grab these extra supplies to assist in your C.A.M.P. building endeavors.
