Title: Fallout 4
Post by: kamikazekeeg on June 14, 2015, 11:35:28 pm
After that outstanding presentation for the game, I'm more hyped than I thought I could be for this game. Not only is it out this year, but it's basically improvements and new additions across the board, from something as basic as voices for your male or female character, to full settlement creation within the game that is highly detailed, full weapon crafting/customization, to altering and enhancing your own set of jet packing power armor.
For the game collectors, the Fallout 4 collector's edition comes with a complete full size replica of the ingame Pip Boy, for which you can set your phone inside and utilize the free app they are creating to have possibly the most interesting two screen set up I've seen.

Unlike Nintendo, bigger publishers like Bethesda tend to pump out a lot of the special editions. I would still go to pre-order it as soon as it is available, but I think there should be enough.
That link is for windows, currently waiting for ps4
PC, no contest for me. It's always the better version because of mods.

Just found this image of the complete contents of the Pipboy Edition. Of course the Pipboy is the main draw, but some of the other stuff looks nice as well. Hope that "metal case" is actually a steelbook.

Already pre-ordered. I know they aren't like Nintendo where you have to pre-order within minutes of announcement, but I am guaranteeing myself I get this and I get it the day of release with two day shipping lol

Your welcome, I rather you guys grab them first than random people on the internet, I also threw up a link on my gun forum and they were buying it up too haha.
Btw, for those waiting, amazon has an email notification when (if) comes available again. Worth a shot.

Speaking during an E3 2015 roundtable, the game's Lead Producer, Jeff Gardiner, said that he had “played the game probably for 400 hours, and I’m still finding stuff that I haven’t seen yet.”
As is usually the case with Bethesda’s RPG’s, players can usually expect to set aside a hundred hours or so to get properly stuck into them. Fallout 4, on the other hand, looks to take that expectation and essentially quadruple it.
Expect the GDP of countries in which Fallout 4 releases to sharply drop when it hits digital and physical store shelves on PlayStation 4 this November.

Actually, its prob gonna be quadruple that. The lead producer has so far played 400 hours and still discovering it, and they believe it could have quadruple what hes played so far.

Not sure if covered before, here or else where, if so, link me. But the bombs dropped in 2077. Fallout 4 emerges 200 years later as the only survivor(per E3 showing). Making it 2277. The Lone Wanderer(fallout 3). Was also "active/set" in 2277. The voice actor for 3 dog posted this back on Jan 8, 2013. "To all my Fallout3 and ThreeDog fans: There may be more of the Dog coming! Fingers crossed!". So timeline wise, 3 dog could possibly be heard in Fallout 4. Though the distance between the DC "wasteland" and Boston are over 400 miles apart. *edit* just read through his twitter, he said this "Dear Fallout Friends, to ease your minds as of today I am not a part of #4. Should that change it will be a secret I will honor. "
It is interesting they set fallout 3 and 4 in the same year.

Fallout 4 has a full weather system that sends radiation storms across the world.
Oh awesome! That actually reminds me of something from the STALKER series, where there were Emissions/"blowouts", which were basically an explosive spread of energy that only gave you moments to get to cover in a protected building or underground area, or else be killed. This I imagine is more about getting hit with like an acid rain full of radiation that would slowly kill you if you can't get shelter or perhaps you are protected outside only while wearing your power armor and is dependent on how much radiation protection you upgrade it with.
Reading more, I'm so happy to hear they overhauled combat so it's a proper shooter now. Ex-Bungie talent is a good get for this. Kind of a bummer for no vehicles, but at least the gunship is an option which seems cool.

I always want cars, but than i think about it.... do i really want one? I mean, sure, you travel faster, but than you might miss stuff, that you wouldnt miss walking.
Just like CO-OP. i mean, it would be cool to play with you or someone else from here and travel around and chat online. but than its like.... well. I kinda like to do my own thing.

Sure you might miss something, but sometimes you want something that isn't just fast travel, so like rather than relying on that, you might be more inclined to drive to your next location, especially if it gives you the opportunity to have more storage. I'm a hoarding nut and that's what I want lol

It also become more than just travel, as it could become a racing side mission, or you have to transport supplies that might get raided, I think it adds a lot more gameplay to the game and of course could be something added later in the game, like halfway through, so you've put your hours in on foot and now you get a sweet motorcycle with side car storage. Would be interesting to see, maybe a DLC campaign in a new area with that in mind perhaps.

Yeah it's a container for the games and is supposed to fit your Fallout 4 in there too if you have a normal copy.
That makes sense. I guess because of the way they described it in that flyer as a "collectible mini nuke" I thought the slot served a different purpose. Overall it looks pretty... bombin'! ;D

Rayne, are you still looking for a Pip-Boy edition? If so, which platform?
PS4 and yeah im still looking for it, but its no biggie if I don't get it. I will just spend the money to 3-d print one at work. actually now that im thinking about it I would prefer to make my own pipboy. because I can make it more functional for less than what its going for online.

I got a very cool Fallout 4 display banner from Gamestop at lunch. It's basically just a light tan background w/ the game logo and Vault Boy on one side reaching across w/ a thumbs up. The only marketing stuff on it is in a very narrow strip across the bottom, so I can easily trim that off if I want. :)
They have had this hanging up for a few weeks now, so if you've been in a GS recently you've probably seen it, but stores just got a new one in this week. The only difference is that the old one said "RP" for the rating & the new one has the M rating. I guess they're supposed to swap them out, but all the stores near me are just giving away or tossing the new one since it's such an insignificant change, so the one I have is unused. :) If you're interested in one & have a GS hook-up, I'd recommend contacting them ASAP!

Geezus this is ridiculous I just read through all the op posts the amount of work he's thrown into this is astounding. I could make the entire model for the pip-boy but there is no way in hell id be able to do all the board and coding work he's putting into this...
Edit:
Unfortunately I do not believe he can get all the components he is after into this I reread some of his posts and he states that some of his boards have a really tight clearance, half a mm (millimeter) at some places. why I believe the setup will not work Is because of tolerance stack-ups for the internals of the device would be more than the half a mm. especially if it is 3d printed (although he picked the best method for what he needs done). at worst case scenario on the max material side he will have to spend hours and hours hand filling down the internals just to get things to fit (with the possibility of breaking it) and that's assuming his mounting holes for the boards are perfectly centered where they need to be (they can be + or - 0.5mm very easily).
For people who use English units (like myself) half a millimeter is ~.0197 inches or ~1/51 of an inch which is smaller than the smallest increment of a ruler

Geezus this is ridiculous I just read through all the op posts the amount of work he's thrown into this is astounding. I could make the entire model for the pip-boy but there is no way in hell id be able to do all the board and coding work he's putting into this...
the website was running slow on my phone so i couldnt read through it all. :(

In my wait, with building hype, I've decided to create my own Nuka-Cola Quantum prop. Gonna be placed on a custom made stand with LED touch light inside the base. Hopefully it looks cool when I'm done.

Doing my best to keep myself fresh for the game as gameplay has been leaked out. Saw some screenshots, but nothing with anything of substance in them as I'm not wanting to see any new baddies, creatures, etc, other than what was shown off at E3.

Ignore this thread until we beat the game... after all, the time you spend reading all the spoily posts is better spent finding things worth/not worth spoiling (depending on your perspective)on your own.
I collectively give it a week of story driven gameplay before the largest majority of us beat it anyway longer if your out meandering and doing other things

Though really, it's not like I can use it for much right now lol It at least has a demo mode, so I can kinda see how it works which is neat. I'd be curious to see how well it works as a companion app, especially on PC. Is it quicker to just flip through it separately, or use the stuff ingame. Not too mention how quick is it for helping me out or changing gear going from phone to the PC using an internet connection.

I am hearing that some of the companys are cancelling pipboy preorders because they oversold them, So keep an eye out for an email.
I went with amazon and did it pretty soon, so hopefully that won't be an issue. I'm just hoping it ships by Saturday so it can make it by Monday.
I am in a fallout group on facebook and someone said amazon trying for friday and it shows the same on the website. but me too, it be awesome if it arrived monday haha

UK folks should double check their Pipboy edition if we have any here.
Also something I sorta realized I'm very excited for with Fallout 4, that has nothing to do with all the particularly new features and improvements, but is that I won't know where to go. Sure, you get a basic direction to go for the plot usually, or what seems like the path to find where you need to go, but I've spent hundreds of hours between both Fallout games, so I know where most things are. Replaying those games are fun, but it gets to a point when you remember so much, what is bad, what is good, that you've gotten use to the exploration aspect, which is my favorite part. It's been 5 years since New Vegas came out, so to get a new Fallout again, with an all new area to explore, has me way more excited than the gun play enhancements, improved visuals, crafting, town building, etc, lol

Any time I've ever preordered a game from Amazon, I don't usually get a ship notice til Sunday. So I wouldn't start worrying just yet.
I preordered mine via GameStop's site, rather than Amazon since they were out of stock. I'm not sure what is going to happen with my order. But last email I got was them telling me they'd be authorizing my payment on the 4th. But nothing's come out of my account yet.

I got my shipping confirmation from Amazon today, and they say it's on track to arrive tomorrow.
I also ordered a copy for my wife & a second Pip Boy Ed. for a friend from Best Buy, and those just say "preparing". So I don't have much hope of those arriving in time. It's weird how BB does, my Juggernog CoD got here Friday (on its release day) but now it looks like F4 will be late. :-\

Luckily I need to sleep so I won't be following my package as it gets here lol It's a few hundred miles away from me, so I know it's showing up today and that fills me with satisfaction.
Had a good bit of time spent in Fallout 3 the past few nights, as I haven't really put time into the game for years now, but I'll be able to go from that to Fallout 4 and really feel what the differences are. Cause already I'm super missing the gameplay improvements of New Vegas and with Fallout 4 supposed to be a more proper shooter than even that, I just get happy. Like Bob Ross soothing happy lol

I am so fucking mad. I wanted to buy some nuka-cola quantum to go with my game, So what did I do to be prepared for it? 1 week ago I called up target and asked if their were any way for me to reserve a case of nuka-cola and was told no because they would have no Idea how much of it was coming in. so I asked If they would call up the distribution center for jones soda and request an extra case to be delivered for me. and they agreed to that and the next day I got a confirmation call from target about my case of nuka-cola. so me being pro-active for once in my life found the number for the local distributor and asked for confirmation of the extra case shipment to that particular target and was told "we have 8 cases going to that store", so I should be able to get a case.
fast forward to yesterday. I Called up both target and the distribution center for one final confirmation of my order. the distribution center came back with the same answer (they had 8 cases going to the target I ordered it from) but target had a different answer for me, they told me that my hold of the case was canceled and that I could not hold a limited quantity item and to call today at 7:30 a.m. and ask for it to be held aside for me tomorrow. Alright easy enough I want it that badly.
so this morning I wake up and call them (target) up to ask for them to hold aside a case of the nuka-cola for me and they tell me no problem but that I would have to pick it up before 10 and that it will be up at customer service, so with me already going to go in at 8 a.m. (opening time) this was no issue. I get to the store parking lot about 7:50 ready for the opening and their is only me and 3 other people waiting their for them to open. After a bit an employee comes and unlocks the door and all of us walk in to the store. I go immediately with a cart to the customer service desk and tell them that I am here for the case of nuka-cola and was told it would be held in customer service. the lady at the desk starts looking around for the product and informs me that it is not there and she calls up the back room to grab a case and bring it up. and over the walkie I hear a laugh and "case? we only got in 12 bottles." and as if right on que I hear the clinking of glass and see a guy walk out of the store with all 12 of them!!! he bought them all!!
I asked what happened to the 8 cases hey were supposed to get in furious at this point and ask her to call up the distribution center and ask whats up. after almost half an hour they come back with they have no idea where I got the 8 cases from they only had 6 total at the center and they were to be split evenly between all the area stores. The person that was sent into the back to grab the nuka-cola quantum brought up a case of coke instead. and nobody that I had talked to yesterday or today before I got in bothered to tell me they had only gotten 12 in even though apparently they had it in the back yesterday before I called to confirm.
In all this is just a fucking cluster and I will no longer buy from target because of this.

whats worse is that when i was thinking their would be 8 cases a store give or take, I was thinking that this would be a very nice thing for fans to have while playing the game. (same sort of thing as gamerfuel is) but at 12 bottles a store (less than a case) this becomes a scalpers paradise and bottles are being bid to $40 a bottle!!!!! I just wish that either companys would better guage the market and give enough for the demand or that they would implement something... anything to stop this behavior because it is hurting the industry more than anything and turns fans off to certain things. I'm a bit of a soda nut so unfortunately i will probably buy a bottle online and keep it when i drink it.
but anyway Math time!! the target around me is the only one in a 40 mile radius. my town is about 58,000 people as of 2013 their are 2 cities on top of that that literally are butted up to the borders so basically is one large city but their population is ~5000 (2013) and ~3000 (2013). In that 40 mile radius of people only having this target to shop at their are more than a dozen other cities at least 6 of them with more than 5000 people living their. so for simplicity im going to call it 70,000 people have access to this one target (not that all of them use it mind you). so in other words they decided the demand for this soda would only be 70,000/12= 5833 so they estimated that 1 out of every 5800 people would like to buy a bottle of berry lemonade soda? to me more people would buy it just because berry lemonade sounds delicious.

With what I'm looking at for the settlements in this game at first glance, I could probably have just seen them create essentially "Wasteland Survival", where it's nothing but building.

Post by: kamikazekeeg on November 12, 2015, 06:16:10 am
Game has a bit of a learning curve in some areas as it'll take abit to figure out all the aspects of settlement building and other features. I just recently learned after 20 hours I could store all my junk in the workshop, so I've just made Sanctuary Hills my main base. I fill up my inventory to bursting, travel back, dump the junk in for materials, disassemble guns I'm not gonna sale, and do any modifications. Makes things so much easier as I was constantly struggling with my inventory lol
Also, I have like 5 sets of Power Armor now, likely to get even more lol They are all sorta parked out next to the Sanctuary Hills power armor station. I'd love to get to the point that I turn one of the empty lots into a garage for all my suits with their own stations.
I was unsure if the game would truly have enough room to explore, cause it seemed slightly small, but there's tons more to do I think and the Southwest corner of the map is bigger than it looks.

Had that happen walking to the east, spotting a legendary raider in power armor and wondering how I was gonna fight him, just to get insta-nuked. Made a mental note of him and then came back in my Power Armor to beat the crap out of him lol

I'm working on my settlement. I agree. It's a learning curve. I lost dog meat there for a while. Figured out how to get him back.
Title: Re: Fallout 4
Post by: rayne315 on November 12, 2015, 01:32:40 pm
as nice as it is having dog meat around (I send him ahead of me to check for enemies/traps) I actually do not like the fact that he is non-walkthrough-able. on quite a few occasions I have walked into narrow places to try and find loot and dog meat came in after me. this normally wouldn't be that bad but he blockes the whole dang corridor and you cannot walk past him. sometimes when you are picking up things from the ground he will literally walk into you, pushing you away, and stand directly on top of what you want to pick up.

I love Dogmeat but he has the worst AI in this game. Dogmeat has used more stimpak than myself. I command him to stay while I try to get a sneak attack but dogmeat start growling and make all sort of noise. I love him but man sometimes I feel like going solo.

I got rid of Dogmeat pretty quick once I saw I could get Prescott as a partner, since Dogmeat generally tends to be pretty useless outside of small critters or some raiders. People are much better, but don't give the AI automatic weapons or ones that use lots of ammo like the laser musket. They burn through it to quick. Best I've picked is either a laser rifle or combat shotgun as you want them to make their hits count. I have a total of 5 companions at the moment, two I haven't used, but I really like Piper. Probably one of the better characters in the game just from voice acting and personality.

Post by: rayne315 on November 12, 2015, 05:11:03 pm
after thinking about it a little more I don't think given the opportunity I will get rid of dog meat. he has infinite health (he regenerates it so don't use stim packs) and a seemingly infinite carry weight (I pick up literally everything I find so I trade it to dog meat) so I never become over encumbered. also if you don't know yet try trading a teddy bear to dog meat.

yea, it's super cool. seems to work pretty precisely i can't imagine using it without the pip boy, though very novel
I tried it out with the pipboy on last night. The phone's screen staying on for that length of time made my phone heat up pretty bad tho, and it seemed to eat up a lot of juice. The other issue was text messages and twitter notices popping up in the middle of game play. And without my phone easily accessible it killed me not being able to check it quickly.

I'd make sure your main suit is complete, but I basically have 6 sets of armor/frames right now and I know where to get another when I get my hacking up, I can buy another frame, and I'm likely to get one in the Brotherhood questline I feel. I've created a garage to store them all at Sanctuary Hills lol
As for glitches, I haven't had a ton actually. In the factory you get to in the first mission for the Brotherhood, there's a room where if you walk out of it, most everything disappears in front of you other than some random parts and sky. Doesn't ruin anything, but you can go in and out of this one spot to just see something weird lol

Whats your playstyle like? are you building up your bases? questing? wandering around killing random enemies? gathering ridiculous amounts of supplies? Me Im doing the last part. everywhere I go I pick clean of all stuff and transport all my loot to my heavily fortified base. I have thousands of pounds of stuff.
Id ask where your at in the game but I don't want to read throught many spoilers as their no doubt is someone further than me. and im no doubt further than someone else.

Users are starting to flood Bethesda’s forums with a potentially game-breaking bug that was discovered while doing one of the many quests available in Fallout 4. This issue has started to rear its head during a settlement quest where players are sent to a location called Mosignor Plaza. Upon traveling to the area, the game simply crashes without any sort of warning or error.

I just did this and got by with a sniper rifle and one stim pack I found running around. no power armor level 16.
I found an AMAZING pipe pistol, it has base damage (12), 3 round burst if tapped fully auto if held with a clip of 18. why its so good is it causes 15 or 25 (cant remember which) points of bleed damage to the target per bullet. I can almost literally hit something with just the 3 round burst and kill them just with the bleed.

I believe nicks hacking perks are directly related to your level so when you reach lvl 9 nick can hack expert terminals, and 21 for master. why I believe this is the case is because when I turned level 21 I noticed I can get him to hack master terminals.

when you grab a new follower It asks you where you would like to send the previous on then all you have to do is go to that settlement and find them meandering around. for dog meats case if you send him to sanctuary he will be around a dog house when he isn't meandering.

Well this seems to be a game breaking glitch. I cleared my way to the top of the tower killing every enemy single enemy as I am over leveled for it (lvl 31) with too good of gear (can 1-2 shot them all). so it seamed to me like a good bit of experience. how I would try and explain the glitch I'm talking about would be a kill limit. When I got to the top and started making my way back down without fail every second enemy I killed kicked me out of the game. didn't matter if it was killing 2 at the top or the last 2 enemies at the bottom it would always crash.
Its not really a fix as you will miss all those enemies on the way down but if you make it out of the tower without killing anything It will not kick you out of the game for killing any more enemies outside of the tower. unfortunately I did not go back into the tower to see if the same thing would happen with subsequent entries.
EDIT:
Im also starting to just know when a legendary (star) enemy is around as my game will start experiencing frame rate drops when I am in the spawn radius of them.

Supposedly they are more about the later game, where you have trade lines setup and vendors in your place, so that you can buy better weapons and gear and such. There are vendors you find around the Commonwealth, which are somewhat special dudes, and you can have them go to the settlement to sell once you have openings. I haven't gone that far, as I'm usually just building for my own reasons and I added more items to use for building with mods. There's an amazing island to the Southeast that you can use to create an island fortress for yourself.
Title: Re: Fallout 4
Post by: ignition365 on December 01, 2015, 12:32:30 pm
I definitely need to check out that island.
From what I understand, the base building helps you out later in the game. You set up shops to make you money, so you can buy stuff. Set up scavenging stuff to gather free resources to customize equipment. I got into it early on and then realized it was pretty useless, so I stopped.
I've had like 6 settlements get attacked and all 1 to 3 people die, then the settlement stops getting attacked. It's fantastic.
I've got maybe 4 settlements I actually kind of tend to.
I've put in about 90 hours so far, I'm at the point in the game where you have to decide a faction and murder all other factions, I'm not happy about it at all.

You can set up supply lines to share resources between settlements, I'm not sure exactly how it works, I just always set up a supply line from all settlements directly to my "HQ"

Good point, forgot about that. but since i can fast travel now while being over louded, its just easier to carry everything now while working on it.
In other news. Working on all my settlements. I havent beat the game on my 2nd player.... Protip, Need cooper? the institute is full of it. Jack everything lol. thank god i can fast travel now thanks to that perk. Overload and head back to SH..
I get all my junk out of my SH settlement(main base) and start from the top and go down the list of Settlements in the pipboy. Go to each one, take everything, scrap everything, go to the work bench, and take everything out that is junk, set up generator and install a radio beacon. And fast travel to the next one.... Now all my settlements have at least a generator and beacon.....
Next job. laying at least 5 sleeping bags (i want at least 10 per). those are the cheapest/fewest stuff to make a bed. Then water pumps, and ive been taking all the crops i can at my settlements, so when I go back to do food, ill have a ton to plant.
And my very last thing will be defense. By then ill be hitting every location and stealing everything lol.
I have 25 settlements (not counting boston airport, since you cant settle people there.

I wanna say I can't wait. But I'm actually kind of underwhelmed by what I'm hearing. Sounds like we are getting 1 Fallout sized DLC (talking about the usual new world stuff) and a bunch of paid title updates. Wasteland workshop sounds kind of like Hearthfire from Skyrim, which IMO, doesn't add a lot to the game, but it is priced accordingly.
They said $60 worth of DLC. Far Harbor is $25, and the other 2 combined are $15. You're already at $40, so there is no room for another Far Harbor sized DLC.
I think gone are the days of 4-5 big DLC worlds.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Automatron didn't sound like it adds a new world like Far Harbor

This is how I look at it. if you are willing to spend the $25 just for far Harbor then instead spend $30 for the season pass. making the remaining $35 of dlc for $5.
They are increasing the season pass after march 1st though so you have a little bit of time to make the final decision.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Automatron didn't sound like it adds a new world like Far Harbor
This is how I look at it. if you are willing to spend the $25 just for far Harbor then instead spend $30 for the season pass. making the remaining $35 of dlc for $5.
They are increasing the season pass after march 1st though so you have a little bit of time to make the final decision.
I bought the gold edition along with the Pip-boy edition, so I already have the season pass, with my out of pocket in the negative. Somehow Best Buy charged me $36 for the Gold Edition and I sold my extra copy for $53.
I'm not complaining about the price, I'm just stating that it's disappointing that we are only getting one major DLC, whereas FO3 and FONV had 4 or 5 major DLCs. I'm sure it will be worth every penny regardless.

Yeah they aren't handling the DLC well here. Disappointing really. It's a crappy thing where I want to wait to see if Far Harbor is really worth the price, but by then, it'll have skyrocketed in price. Doesn't help that Automotron and Wasteland Workshop sound like things that should've been in the game in the first place or free content updates and they haven't said what is going into the rest of the 20 dollars they are putting the price up to. Likely it'll just be two more small updates like the other two.

As much as I agree with this mindset, I also see how the developer feels it is justifiable to charge for this content. Think about how much time you can put into this game compared to other $60 games like Assassin's Creed or Rainbow Six Seige or Call of Duty anything. Them taking the time to add MORE features to this already expansive game, it's kind of amazing. If they were to say "Oh, our game is great, and we but so much into it, we are going to charge $70 for the base game" a lot of people would throw shit fits of course, but I know I'd still pay it because it's worth it.
But yes, I agree, I was expecting Fallout DLC like the other 2 Fallouts, not DLC like Skyrim... which honestly should be expected, because that's what they did with Skyrim, why treat it any differently. I was thinking to myself the other day "Oh my, DLC incoming? I'm gonna be playing Fallout 4 again". Now, now I'm like "Okay, I guess I'll wait until May to start playing again".

If the smaller updates were more substantial, I'd maybe agree, but Automotron is a minor companion bonus and Wasteland Workshop is...Pokemon I guess, but I can't imagine doing much with that. I'm very interested in the Far Harbor DLC, which could be the only one worth the cost if the size they are saying is right. I think the previous DLC packs were like 10 or 15 bucks a piece, so if this is like two or three of those in size, that works out fine price wise.
Eh, I don't know. I'm weak and my Fallout love is strong. I might just grab the season pass since I'm guaranteed to buy Far Harbor and this saves money.

The Automotron one sounds like there may be quests involved, maybe stopping the Machinist.
Wasteland Workshop is only $5, I think Hearthfire was about that cheap, so I wouldn't expect much more than a tutorial quest explaining how to use the added content.

Haven't been hearing too many good things about this game. I think the early reviews were all just hype reviews. Fans have been speaking out a little more since and it seems that Fallout 3 GOTY and New Vegas are better? At least that's what I've been hearing. Can anyone here who has put in a good amount of time tell me what they think from an unbiased standpoint? A fan who has played FO3 and FONV? I planned to get FO4 but I think I'll wait for the inevitable GOTY edition with all DLC and patches.

Finally experienced The Mechanist and while it is a short mission, getting a robot is pretty cool. Haven't gone crazy with it, but I've been building up Ada with some higher end assaultron parts and shouldn't be too much longer that I can can get the higher end sentry arms and gatling guns on her lol Keeps her mobile, but wielding serious firepower. Might even keep her around as my partner from now on as she seems super useful, even if she is abit on the bland side personality wise compared to say Piper or Nick.
Up to the the courser fight in the story at the moment as I hurry to get the story done with a Brotherhood run before the expansion releases this Thursday.

I got my Brotherhood run done (Man, they look cool and Liberty Prime is awesome, but what dicks lol) and just in time as Far Harbor is releasing tonight at midnight (Eastern time). Really hoping for something cool with this. Might play a few more hours today before it goes live to get myself leveled to 40.

Played for a few hours and the new setting is pretty cool, I like the idea of it, but it seems smaller than I expected. It's possibly a quarter the size of the original Fallout 4 map, maybe less, but I think it's certainly less populated. Still got a good bit to do and one location I found that I thought was gonna be cooler, turned out abit weak, though I won't spoil it.
I just remembered this, but the new location reminds me abit of Point Lookout back in Fallout 3 abit. Has that same sort atmosphere I feel.

With the release of mods on X1 and the impending release of mods on PS4, I feel the need to remind folks, if you use mods on a save file, any future progress on that save file will not earn achievements or trophies.

Speaking of mods, I took these two pictures using one of the new environment mods that is in a beta state right now. It's frankly amazing. It makes me feel like I'm playing STALKER or The Last of Us and it is an insane overhaul. With trees and shrubbery, you can actually get jumped and surprised by things since you can't just see out over the barren land. It's even more realistic in that this is likely what the world would really look like after 200 years, even with radiation around as seen by Chernobyl.

Well with the recent announcement of the next DLC batch, a very disappointing bit of news has come up that I didn't realize. Bethesda has stated that Nuka World is the final DLC. Really? The size of Far Harbor was bigger than most of their previous DLC's, but I didn't feel it was super satisfying really. Nuka World seems smaller too and I can't imagine it'll be to crazy. Just seems like they maybe would've like to pick more interesting stuff that feels like it would affect the world a little more to me. Like I expected the fog on Far Harbor to be something man made or affected by the Children of Atom or something, but nah, seems it's just a thing.
Oh well...There is that Fallout New Vegas mod, The New Frontier that is in the works right now that should be amazing and mods on Fallout 4 will eventually bring out new stuff.

Well that is what Nuka World is, it is the mission DLC for this batch, but with that shot showing off the place, it's clearly gotta be like half the size of Far Harbor.

Oh sure. I had hoped for something that really involved the world, which is something we don't get much of. In Fallout 4, it was mostly the Brotherhood of Steel coming from the Capital Wasteland, but I was hoping for like dealing with Enclave holdovers, or just something big of that scale since both Far Harbor and Nuka World are very local and small scale events.

Post by: kamikazekeeg on August 31, 2016, 05:07:22 pm
Yeah I'm fairly deep into it and it's pretty entertaining. More so than Far Harbor was simply because there's more variety to the locations, though the main plot is abit weaker. Only downside is there isn't any really good gear. The armor for the raider groups is pretty shitty and the new guns aren't very interesting as the main one you find is just an AK47. I'm most of the way through it though. I've cleared all the Nuka World areas and now just doing some of the raider leader missions. Trying to figure out where the plot might go.
*EDIT* And done with the pretty much all the quest stuff. Overall, the scenario and setting is cooler than Far Harbor, but it feels lacking story wise. The story was pretty one note, which is probably the only thing that Far Harbor does better. In that you had the story about whether you wanted to side with peaceful Synths, the crazy Atom folk, or the Far Harbor people being pushed off the Island. You also had the stuff involving Nick and whats his name. In this, there's really only one choice of helping out Raider. You can kill the Raider leaders right away for the traders they enslaved, but then you don't get any missions to take from the Raiders, so would make things more boring.
There's also nothing really interesting gear wise. There's a couple of differently painted Power Armors, and some weapons that mostly just feel like variants. Nothing truly cool, or at least looked cool, but aren't super useful combat wise. If I had to rank the two big DLC packs, Far Harbor would be like a 6, and Nuka World might push slightly above at an 7, but abit bummed this is the last of the DLC we'll get. Guess just gotta wait for someone to make some new crazy mod expansion...

I grabbed that one, but I don't think it was anything special. The cores aren't super hard to find, but once you place them, they remove the locations you can find them at, so basically now I have to find a guide and go to most every location to double check what I did or did not pick up. I do think I have a basic idea of the areas I don't need to go to, but it'll be a little annoying.
