Fallout 4

Just joined the BoS so I could get access to their stuff. Decided to try taking Danse around for a bit. GOD he's so annoying. They're all annoying. Stop commenting when I pick shit up. You don't want me to pick shit up, then you can fight everything on your own because I won't have any fucking weapons or ammo. Dickface.
 
And I took Danse back to Sanctuary with me because I needed to drop stuff off and get stuff from Dogmeat. Then I decided to do some settlement building. When I do that when Dogmeat is following me, he just tends to wander off a bit, he never gets in the way. Danse was in my fucking face all the fucking time. FUCK OFF.
 
There was a gamer article on things you need to know about Fallout.

One of them was saying that Dogmeat should be gotten rid of as soon as possible as the other companions are better: Better in combat and give perks.

There was no place for me to comment that once you have the a few companion perks then Dogmeat is better.

He doesn't stand in front of you as you about to take the shot.
He doesn't steal XP by killing enemies. Yeah you heard me, i don't want companions killing things, thats my job.
He allows you to have the lone companion perk and still act as a mule for you (although this may be a bug according to some loading screen text i read about this perk, which suggests you aren't sposed to get it if you have a dog, the original intention and they forgot to change this text when they changed their mind?).
 
Cait is doing my nut in. Tempted to dump her.

I miss Piper she'd call me "blue..."

I really really dislike Cait.

I picked her up, took her back to my home in Diamond City, and just drank/took drugs in front of her to increase her relationship with me until she gave me her quest - which is a really stupid quest, I got addicted to stuff to impress her and just took an addictol, oh no that's not good enough to sort her out is it :rolleyes:
 
Oh I made the mistake of completing the main quest. Most of my other quests vanished into the ether, the big finish i was expecting didn't happen and now i dunno if I can be bothered looking around the wasteland any longer.

Although this may also be a good thing as i do have real life shit i should be doing and wasn't because of this game.

They do have the best toys.

Can't imagine what it must be like to be in a relationship with Danse - I bet he makes you call him 'sir' in bed and refuses to take off his power armour. :rolleyes:
 

This has really no basis, but I've always had it in my head that since Bethesda took over the Fallout franchise (which happened in 2004, even though FO3 wasn't made/released until after Oblivion), they've been supposed to be somehow in the same universe - whether parallel dimensions or different planets in the same universe.
 
I was just doing the 'kill the disturbingly pink ghouls in a school' settlement mission, and walked out of the school and watched a vertibird get shot down. So, obviously I went to see what I could scavenge, and there was a lone gunner with a plasma pistol also presumably scavenging.

I hope that wasn't scripted, but a random event. But I suspect it was,

I've seen plenty of whirlybirds shot down. One time i went to have a look there was nothing to scavenge and no one else around so I'm guessing not scripted.
 
I love the fact that I can use them like a fucking armed taxi service - too much fun :D
 
What weapons do people favour, for normal getting about and boss fights?
The Overseer's Guardian is over powered.

If you don't want to bust the game by making it too easy avoid this weapon.

It's pretty much the only weapon I used once I got it. I never seemed to run out of ammo for it either.
 
Up Close, fully upgraded combat shotgun.
Medium distance, Righteous Authority * lazer or combat rifle.
Long range, Instigating sniper rifle with tactical tracking scope.
 
I'm only level 8, so nothing impressive. My dpad one-tap left and right weapons are a hardened, scoped sniper rifle with extended magazine called "I See You" and a hardened combat shotgun with extended magazine called "Boom Stick"

Crispy doesn't do medium range :D

10mm pistol for annoying radroaches etc.
 
What weapons do people favour, for normal getting about and boss fights?

Silenced advanced 10mm, 50 cal sniper, armour piercing assault rifle, and heavily modified combat shotgun with a quick release drum. With my companion carrying a triple barrelled missile launcher fat man and cyrolater for the big boys

I just got to level 3 gun nut, can you tell?
 
I have a 10mm that I've upgraded and I use that for most things - can 1-shot ordinary mobs, but the fast rate of fire means that if the first shot doesn't do it, they are either dead or struggling on the ground sans-legs before they reach me.

Kremvh's Tooth (a unique machete) for if anything makes it close to me

Quad-barrelled missile launcher for deathclaws, mirelurk queens, behemoths etc.

Frag grenades and molotov cocktails also.
 
I have too many weapons that I insist on carrying around and I need to offload a couple. I have sniper rifle that does 50% extra dmg to ghouls (i.e. 1 shot kills), one semi-auto rifle that does 50% extra dmg to mutants, the laser that does 50% extra dmg to humans, the righteous authority (for when I want to do crits), a shotty for close up encounters (20% extra chance to blow off their legs)....plus a triple barreled missile launcher, a pistol, a sniper that fires two bullets per shot (apparently, the animation doesn't seem to show it) and a sub-machine gun, mainly to burn through the tonnes of ammo I have for it.

Recently picked up a companion after roaming with Dogmeat for a while, so lost the extra carrying capacity you get from the Lone Wanderer perk, so almost always have a full inventory after just a few firefights. Need to sort my life out.
 
Oh and I've worked out what it is that makes grenades more useful in this game and it's not just physics - it's that in previous games you had to equip them instead of a weapon, so you were either an explosives bod or not - in this game you can equip them as well as another weapon without having to switch between the two, so they are useful as a back-up/in between firing your gun strategy.
 
I must admit, i'm loving the game but when i read this thread i'm a little overwhelmed. Its a well complicated game, innit - so much depth to it. Probably more than any other game i've ever played.

My ps4 name is Thunderponce if anyone wants to add me up by the way (although could you please indicate here what your username is if you do, thanks)
 
Artimus_foul I'll add you later.

And yes it is daunting. I keep coming to locations and groups I've never heard anyone mention like the weird club in Goodneighbour.

Fucking hell and there's years of dlc to come
 
Im level 18 so not that far, but am loving the Chinese Officer's serrated sword at the mo - i like chopping mofos down with it, and it can handle most average foes too, with one chop or two with the ole VATS. Good for pesky huge insects too
 
Oh I set up my first trading post but I can't buy or sell anything? Ideas

What do you mean by trading post? If you mean a store, you have to allocate a settler to it.
If you mean a supply route, they are not used for buying and selling.
 
10 mm hardened pistol
military hardened sniper rifle
combat rifle
some kind of scoped plasma rifle

and my companion has my missile launcher / fatboy

A store. There's a settler assigned but I can't buy anything (if I try and trade I get his personal belongings)

Hold on, I am going to go into my game where I had stores set up and see what happens... (as I kept and junked pretty much everything I didn't pay much attention to bartering with them as by the time I had stores I was pretty self-sufficient).
