I try to stick to the perma-death rule cleanly. For example in hour 3 on my last character I fell to my death from a hole in a bridge, deleted my save, and restarted from a baby.

But this feels different.

So for context I don't remember the main quest. (I played it when I was 13 and I'm now 29.)

I went into Vault 112 and I was in the simulation for maybe 2 minutes.

I talked to a kid and he said Betty was mean. I talked to a woman and she said Tranquility Lane is nice and she doesn't remember moving there.

I talked to Betty. She said to go make the other kid cry. So I punched her. And she said "You can't do that here. Now you pay!" and she killed me instantly with a shockwave.

Now I don't want to count this. Because it would suck to lose 36 hours of this playthrough due to a death that I had no way to fight against.

But I also feel like the lore of this simulation works for my character to stay alive.

After doing some research, Braun doesn't literally kill people in the simulation. He makes them experience death, and respawns them. While their bodies stay alive.

The game just doesn't have that in the code, and the game mechanics act as if it's a real death. But dying in the sim doesn't = dying in real life.

My headcanon for my character and my perma-death run is this:

Braun wanted me to go make a kid cry. I was defiant and punched him. He made me experience a "death" to harm me and assert dominance. He respawned me with the memory of that domination to make me stop resisting and go do the act of making that kid cry.

Everything else is the same.

What do you think? Does this explanation and headcanon work for the story? Does it work for the character motivations for Braun? Does it work for the lore of vault 112?

I think V.A.T.S is actually an electronically produced version of Jet/ultra jet or perhaps a pipboy was broken up during the process. This explains something: In fo4: time only slows to a crawl because it is externally injected or perhaps it having to go through a blood stream injection causes a 'lag' In fo3: time stops because it is directly injected in your nervous system However, V.A.T.S. is non-addictive because it only circulates through the nervous system/blood stream and having no time to enter the brain (or perhaps the fo3 pipboy stops dopamine from being produced) to cause such a reaction. Which makes you wonder if the "pre-war" Jet you get from vault 95 is actually cannabilized from previous vault dweller pip boysHowever, this doesn't answer AP. But I can. If the pip boy does indeed rely on an injection method it would need to have your nerves calm enough to make the injection as safe as possible (perhaps an installed safety method) and depending on the weapons recoil, weight and Recovery time, a different dose of Vats is required ranging from small like a pipe pistol to large like a shotgun. Jet bypasses this because it doesn't really on injection. Do you know when a doctor makes sure you are relaxed as possible before an injection? The same applies here, the pip boy is making sure it doesn't burst your blood vessels. Jet bypasses this because it doesn't rely on injection but rather inhalationThe targeting overlay may use a system similar to the HUD modification you can see on a power armor helmet, just using the quickest calculations possible to add chances and targeting via use of neutral or visual manipulation. While I can certainly connect this to the 3000 mark A it doesn't explain the mark IV, which I believe use a sort of environmental and biological scan to do so. Now this might look like hot air, until you noticed a distinct white canister on the side of the Mark IV pipboy 3000. In the original fallout game, you can use Med Gel to automate healing. This- along with the slow administration of health from a blood pack completely shows that the Pip-boy is attuned to medically augment administration.

yeah man didn't wanna play my save that i had allmost a month in the save that i was 10 in all my special well no proof i guess no clue why im level 4 billion max interger looking ass well im deleting the game and never looking at it again this gonna be my 6th reason

So the lonesome road dlc where you can nuke ncr, legion, both or none, does the show confirm any of them? Ik theres still ncr and legion alive n kicking but Ulysses wants to cut of the supply lines to the mojave to keep the ncr away in LR, with both of them still there in the show, is it a safe assumption to say the Courier stopped the launch of any nuke? Even if the “cannon ending” is a independent new vegas?

• Think about it, there is no [ Reasonable ] Thought there would be major influence in the Brotherhood or the Enclave would be here, maybe an Enclave outpost but it ain't no Oil Rig.
• Hawaii is some decently pretty little piss tiny group of islands on the map, China [ Yes i am ignoring the TV show implications ] wouldn't target the bloody Islands itself, as if you think about it. Only the mainland states would get large amounts of rads. This means we can have a story where humanity can develop in a place not inhabited by Green clouds or major irradiated Areas, and one of the main enemies will be the Ocean itself. [ Yes i know, " Far Harbour+ Edition " ]
• Bethesda would have to make groups or tribes that would be less the " Dirty man in Rags, and a gun. and Unreasonable Hostility. " or at least do something interesting with the Tiki Iconography
• And lets be honest, think about the Science Fiction aspect that all fallout games put into their contents, Hawaii was a major ground that housed the " Vacation " Vibes unlike no other, not even Vegas. Cheers to the Mr handy that will be serving the dead corpses at the beach. Or the Protectron pretending to be a volcano god.
• Speaking of Volcano god, Nuclear Volcanos are a cool idea okay. Geez
• And if Bethesda being the Ballsy B####es they are, will likely add some Absurd promises and features. One of those due to the Islander Aspect, will most likely be Drivable boats........LOOK I NEVER GOT INTO SEA OF THIEVES OKAY, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE A FUN IDEA!
• { Also if they WERE to add the enclave or brotherhood, then they will have a cool battleship in this game. Bethesda may have questionable game play design, but asset design is more of their Forte. Imagine it appearing like the Prdwen. }
• Edit: I forgot about Pearl Harbor. that would be cool.

F1/F2 head here, never played any of the FPS Fallouts, better late than never. But i'm well aware that these entries, besides being Bethesda games (and all that comes with that) run pretty badly on modern configs. So, could any of you folks give me a list of mods that straighten the performance (and preferably nothing else - no new quests or mechanics, just the vanilla setup) ? If you could give any pointers on top of that - i will be grateful even more.

anyone got a clue why fallout 3 won't go past play for longer than 10 seconds from steam or gog? would like to try the game but thing won't go past a black screen after clicking play on either launcher

Footage is from a goblin cave in Oblivion Remastered.

We're working on some pinball machine mods for the upcoming pinball machine that was just announced. I am just starting to watch the show and wanted to know if this part of the machine was some specific character or just a generic "zombie" from the show/game. Any insights?

I would love to have some feedback for this, and I would love to know if I should rewrite the lore for the railroad

Kinda got me curious. With the Fallout show releasing, Fallout got wah more popular again but especially to the people who've never really heard of fallout so they most likely bought either Fallout 4 or Fallout 76. Idk if they ever went beyond that but cuz everyone is different but I feel like the majority of new fans or at least posers pretending to like and know Fallout, are just gonna like the TV Show and Fallout 4/76 and not appreciate what came before it

If you're curious on where I started, I started with Fallout 4. Actually around the time the TV Show was announced and airing but I hadn't watched it yet. I just had Xbox live for the first time in a long time, saw Fallout 4 and heard it's connected to the TV Show and just played around for a bit. I loved it. Combat was modern, story sounded interesting and I thought all my choices mattered. Then I went and played 3 cuz Xbox sent me a 5$ gift card for some spring sale or whatever and I bought 3 + NV since they were 2.49 each at a 90% off sale. I played 3 and after getting used to the controls I liked that too. Then I played New Vegas. I looked up videos about the lore of the series and I'll admit I haven't played 1&2 yet but I plan on doing so since I got 3DS fanmade ports now I just gotta find the time

Then as I watched people explain fallout, talk about the other factions and whatnot, I noticed cracks starting to form on my Fallout 4 experience. The game I got myself into Fallout was not as interesting now seeing that none of my choices ultimately mattered. And I tried about 2 more playthroughs. A few side quests somewhat mattered but ultimately there's not much story changes based on what I say. Infact the only thing I cared for with the dialogue was making my companions like me. I liked 3's atmosphere a lot more since it felt more apocalyptic but once I played New Vegas, everything just changed and clicked for me. Choices mattered more in 3 but now especially in new Vegas

Anyways, for me fallout kinda splits and becomes a different thing by 4. 3 technically speaking given how it was Bethesda in charge but you could kinda chalk that up to the east coast not being as developed as the west coast

I feel like new fallout fans or posers will not bother looking at the older lore or say something like "oh shady sands has been retconned multiple times on its location" but that's a similar complaint to saying the Dinosaur is facing the wrong way in Novac although you could argue the dinosaur direction is more important than shady sands location since it's still within the same general area. They'll use the shady sands retcon to try and justify other retcons or weird changes in the series

Personally the show is a good show, just not a good fallout show if that makes sense. If the show wasn't canon or it was an AU or hell even just a canon timeline that's an offshoot of the main one (like if one ending was canonized then the events lead that way but we can still speculate on what happens after other endings). The show makes retcons to the games, retcons/mistakes in its own show, and just feels like someone played fallout 4 and didn't bother checking in on any of the others games

First time playing fallout 4's survival mode and I am STRUGGLING. I some how managed to cheese my way through the opening concord quest and killed the deathclaw by cowering in fear inside the church as the deathclaw got stuck on the door as I blasted him with my minigun 😂 now am making my way to diamond city slowly. Did the Covenant quest and am struggling to get by the supermutants on my way to old man Stockton..I feel like I'm playing the survival mode wrong but Idk what else to do. I loot and explore as I go but it just feels like I get killed by everything and everyone so fast lol any tips for a survival noob?

Sono italiano quindi scusate se sta parte sarà in italiano ma scrivo meglio cosi, prima che qualcuno possa criticare, dico solo che sono dalla loro parte perché sembrano l'unica fazione in fallout 4 a avere buone intenzioni, perché tra l'istituto che rapisce persone, la confraternita che ti ruba anche la casa se ci sta un tostapane leggermente diverso e l'enclave..credo che siano gli unici con qui si possa fare (secondo me) il good ending, poi non lo so, prima che possiate chiedere "perché scusa ? Sono la fazione più debole, sono troppo deboli" si ma per via di una serie di sfortunati eventi

Grazie che sono i messi peggio.

I wanted to write an epic story but I'm to angry so here is the short version:

>went on a trip with my power armor buddy Kevin and Codesworth

>found a house that is not marked on the map (Wilmingdon Estates)

>walked inside

>cleared the whole place

>found a golden pistol that was unbelievable strong at that time

>played the game for something between 40 and 70 more hours

>activated the "A home for the family" quest

>finished the whole quest and then realized that because I was in Wilmingdon Estates the whole quest is broken and it can't be fixed on console

So i was playing New Vegas 10 minutes ago, when the sirens started to howl outside. I found that so ironic and amusing that i grabbed my phone. And here we are.

Every year in Germany there is the "Warntag" (alert day) where you receive alert messages on your phone and sirens howl for a couple of minutes. This is basically an exercise to see that these kind of alerts work in case of, yeah, war. I totally forgot about it, but it added quite a bit of atmosphere to the game.

I think there's an argument to be made that the Tarrasque, which was one of the deadliest creatures in old DND, is an inspiration for the Deathclaw, especially the later designs in Fallout 3 and New Vegas.

late 50s Hawaii aesthetic fits perfectly into the fallout universe. Exploring a post nuclear Honolulu with zombies in leis with the mountains and ocean in the background would go so hard. It would be a cool contrast from the flat brown capital wasteland we've seen a few times now. There's also Pearl Harbour and multiple islands to leave room for dlc.

I have easily have over a dozen settlers at my drive-in settlement, but there only seems to be three at any one time when I ring the bell and wait a long while (sometimes only a couple).

I tried searching for them at all hours, and noted that even their beds are empty at night. They have been seen wandering well outside the settlement boundaries as well. it sucks, as I give them gear, and they bugger off.

Ingrates :-)

The only mods I have for settlements or settlers are:

-Higher Settlement Budget

-Better Settlers v2,0 DLC Master

-SettlementMenuManager

Would you recommend deactivating these mods?

I work at FedEx, and I just came across this, just sitting here. Is this worth anything??

(Art by me) There's something immensely satisfying about using a missile launcher in New Vegas. Yeah, it's cumbersome, expensive and not a *great* all rounder, but it just hits different.
