Fallout 4

[Crispy]

Hahahaha fuck you sentry bot! You thought a level 9 pipsqueak in leather armour would be easy pickings didn't ya? Didn't reckon with my bag full of mines, my devastating shotgun, my performance enhancing drugs, my stimpak stash and a conveniently distracting pack of wandering raiders, did ya?

Fuck you!

2 fusion cores and tons of rare scrap GET.

 

[Vintage Paw]

I always seem to get to the bots after I've killed everything else

Most memorable was inside the supermarket in Lexington. I went around it anti-clockwise and cleared out the whole place, only to find the protectron by the fucking door on my way out.

Your gun looks like my gun. It's my favourite gun. I will be updating it from .45 to .308 once I have the necessary perk. It's otherwise fully upgraded.

I've started vaguely cheating after I clear a location I check the wiki to see if I've missed anything otherwise I'm never going to finish this game. But last night getting a sentry bot to charge and attack some gunners and their assaultrons was too much fun...

 

[Enviro]

I've found a disappointing number of bobbleheads - only 3 I think, and one of those I may have accidentally read the location of it...

I've only found four. And one of them was, as I said, because I got lost in a location checked the wiki and realised I walked past it. Twice.

My 308 pipe pistol which does double damage if the target is at full health is almost too powerful. Instant one shot kill on raiders gunners etc...

Don't mess with Trashcan Carla apparently....

That is fucking awesome.

On kokatu a writer talks about coming across raiders having a bot race

I found that bot race.

 

[Chilli.s]

The bot race was one of my fav locations so far.

Spoiler

Sneak in and adjust the robots on the computer, otherwise that hopping assaultron "Iron Maden"is very tough to kill.

Even better, set them to self destruct. There is a countdown and it is hard to tell where they are going to blow up, but trust me when they blow up it is utterly glorious. The first time I tried it, I mis-timed it and they blew up as they were on the bit of track right outside the house with the terminal - I think chunks of me probably landed in Sanctuary Hills. Second attempt I got it right and took out half the raider camp in a glorious and messy chain of explosions... best thing ever.

You can also loot from one of the robots a holotape of the bugle calls to play from your PipBoy which is a nice touch

Oh also the commentator's reaction over the loudspeakers when you start killing people is superb - it's one of my favourite locations in the game

Found the alien blaster. Poor lil guy, sorry but I wanted your gun.

Same here, found about 3. Do they do anything special, then?

They add one star to each of the powers that they correspond to.

 

[BigTom]

One for each of the special stats and some for other things like better healing or more damage from explosives. I've managed 6 so far I think which is surprisingly high for me, but I'm deliberately avoiding collecting the charisma one until I've maxed out that stat through levelling up and get it to 11 for that extra settler.

 

[D'wards]

I made friends with a deathclaw - returned her precious egg to her. I hope word spreads amongst the deathclaw fraternity that i'm a good guy.

 

[Crispy]

I thought Strong would make a good companion. And he is, especially when wielding Grognak's Axe and carrying ALL THE JUNK. But he disapproves of my thievery. So I'm rolling with Cait, who gets happy every time I nick something or get high. If it wasn't for her accent, she'd be the perfect partner.

Strong really doesn't like much at all, I found it very difficult to keep him even neutral to me. I had to send him to a farflung settlement just in case he saw me getting into my power armour, which he dislikes.

Mirelurk Kings.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE MIRELURK KINGS AND WHY WERE THERE THREE OF THEM?

T_T

 

[8den]

Someone has to bring the gold frankensense and bottle caps

 

[8den]

I like nick because I find hacking a lot harder in four. I rarely get more than three matches when I pick a word convinced there is a bug

Ah I think I know where you were, gave me a real fright that lot did.

You know how to remove dud passwords, right? (brackets are the key). With 3 points in hacking, I can usually get it down to only 1 or 2 words left before I have to start picking words, which makes it a foregone conclusion that I will be successful every time, no matter the difficulty of the terminal.

It's actually easier in 4, because if you somehow fuck up it's only a 10 second lockout, rather than permanent. So just use the brackets to remove duds right off the bat before making your first guess, don't worry about whether you need to leave it until later in the chance of resetting your try counter.

Whats best when you kill an enemy wearing power armour, but its too heavy to carry and get anywhere with this side of Christmas?

Depends whether you need the power armour or not - the stuff that raiders wear is generally not great and may not be worth looting, if we are talking about really good stuff then put other shit from your inventory on the body that you can live with losing, take the power armour, fast travel to somewhere you can store it, then go straight back and hope the body is still where you left it with all the stuff you 'stored' in it.

EDIT: If you cannot bear to leave anything and have a lot of settlements, you may not have to stagger too far to a safe spot - so heave it all to your nearest settlement, go into the build menu and build a container and put junk in it so you are no longer encumbered and can fast travel, then travel back to your main base, dump stuff off, and head straight back to pick up the stuff you left behind.

Have your companion turn up in an empty frame and put the armour on said frame?

 

[8den]

I've three and a bit frames I've got two near complete sets of 51b but both are missing arms. I've also got 30 plus the fusion cores. I think I should take them out more. so wandered over to the power armour cats for some missions.

There's also the temp over encumbered solution buffout and booze will give +4 strength and the quickly fast travel home

 

[Private Storm]

I *think* you can get the health of the power armour down to zero and then it weighs nothing. You can then repair it back at base.

 

[Vintage Paw]

Assaultrons are fun. Blow off their legs and just keep backing up as they pathetically crawl towards you, dodging their laser thing.

In other news, my combat shotgun is amazeballs.
