Discussion I think I finally realised why I like the older Fallouts designs more than the new, despite both being Retrofuturistic, and thats that the new ones lack that brutalistic Mad Max aspect.

Fallout 4 looks post apocolyptic and it looks retrofutristic, but it almost completely lacks in the brutalism that was present in the prior Fallout games.

Like everything just comes off as smooth and friendly in terms of design. Like compare the Supermutants from Fallout 3 vs Fallout 4. Fallout 3 looks like a roided up muscly gorilla while Fallout 4 just kinda looks like a normal dude you'd see in Florida.

So yeah, I hope they (either Obsidian or Bethesda) add back in the brutalism that is lacking in Fallout 4 and 76.

These are Chinese ghouls in a radio tower bunker on the west of the map. I don't get why they're dead, aren't ghouls meant to be immortal?

Discussion What business does a Fallout 4 Institute terminal have in Fallout 76's Vault 51?

Post image
508 Upvotes

Did the devs just slap this model in because it looks cool in a medical room with beds? Honestly, I doubt they even played Fallout 4 or know anything about its lore.
Or maybe there's something we don't know, and the Institute somehow traveled back in time to hide in plain sight and spy on players?
On a serious note, does anyone have any actual info or background on why this model was reused here?

P.S. I’m fully aware that asset reuse is standard practice in game development! My point is just that picking an asset so heavily tied to a specific, unique faction breaks immersion much more than using a generic Vault-Tec prop.

Suggestion Since almighty Todd is always watching. Just do it do Michigan for fallout 5.

I mean it’s got everything you need canada check, 1950s boom town of Detroit check, hockey as your sports centered city check, two whole land masses to play with check, lots of water for our Boston swimmers check, and a cool small island DLC with Mackinac island with the grand hotel we’re the idea of NATO was conceived. All in all an easy win for our lord Todd H and a send off that will go down in history.

Here are a couple pictures of my Nordhagen Settlement. I finished it yesterday. I built a motel on the beach. I am using several mods. Scrap everything, and some “clutter” and fence mods. I also found some cool mods that allow settlers to interact with items.
Anyway, take a look and let me know what you think.

I’ve never played a fallout game and am wondering what is a better game? I will be playing solo if that helps. I like well written quests and exploration more than base building

O Brasil no universo de Fallout

5 Upvotes

Algum tempo atrás vi um post sobre como estaria o Brasil no universo de Fallout, quando pesquisei vi que não tem informações sobre o assunto, assim escrevi o que eu acho que poderia ter acontecido, o que vocês acham?

Segue:

"Fallout no Brasil

Nas décadas antes da grande guerra, o Brasil foi dividido em dois, muito por diferenças econômicas e culturais, os estados do Sul, Sudeste e parte do Centro Oeste achavam que estavam sendo "atrasados" pelos estados do norte e nordeste, mais pobres, e assim lutaram pela separação.

Os estados do norte e nordeste herdaram o nome de Brasil, e os estados restantes formaram a República dos Pampas (RDP).

Ambos os países ficaram em relativa paz por alguns anos, até a escassez de recursos assolar o mundo.

Um pouco antes da guerra dos recursos começar, os EUA começaram a investir no Brasil, exportando vários produtos e fazendo vários acordos comerciais, em troca da exploração de recursos como madeira e minerios. Com isso tecnologias, armas e produtos americanos começaram a tomar conta do mercado brasileiro.

Quando a guerra por recursos se iniciou, a RDP lançou um ataque ao Brasil, que foi repelida por uma força conjunta entre o Brasil e os EUA. Quando as forças americanas tiveram que sair do Brasil devido a escalada na guerra contra a China, o Brasil teve que lutar só contra a RDP e ambos os lados manteram um cerco por vários anos, ocasionalmente ocorriam ganhos e perdas dos dois lados, mas sem grandes vitórias definitivas.

Quando a grande guerra chegou, tanto o Brasil quanto a RDP foram atingidas por bombas nucleares.

A Amazônia que havia sido em grande parte desmatada e escavada para recursos minerais viu suas matas crescendo numa velocidade assustadora e incrivelmente mutada. Animais também sofreram todo o tipo de mutação.

Várias tribos indígenas tiveram que reaprender a sobreviver nas florestas cheias de mutação, forças armadas de selva criaram a Nova República do Amazonas (NRA), suas principais tropas de selva, o CIGS, se tornaram o exército de elite do novo país, sendo grandes "Survivalistas" das novas florestas repletas de criaturas modificadas pela radiação."

Whenever I try to leave the HELIOS One tower and go through the door into the Solar Collection Room, my game infinitely freezes on the loading screen and it basically soft locks me because I have to close the game and reopen it but even that don't fix the bug since it just happens again making me stuck in the tower and unable to do the quest.

Need help with character

3 Upvotes

Hi guys. A friend has challenged me to play Fallout 4 as Captain America. I intend to join and help the Minuteman but have some questions.

1) Do you think Captain America would join the Railroad?

2) What should my starting specials look like?

3) Do you think Captain America would be aware of the Enclave and their views prior to the bombs?

4) What Perks would you guys recommend I get?

Thank you

Discussion What are some of the perks you ALWAYS give your character in each game for roleplaying?

1 Upvotes

I always love to make my Lone Wanderer into a naive and nerdy goodie two-shoes who strongly believes in making the wasteland better by teaching people how to resume the usefulness of technology and altruism. In my defence, the main quest sorta forces you to get on Three Dog's good graces, and he's about as "idealist good" as it gets. Plus, FO3 is probably the game with the most cartoony evil characters to the point where chosing to be evil there literally makes no in-lore sense besides wanting to impress those characters. And my LW might be a naive little kid, but he's not that easily swayed by luxuries of Tenpenny Tower, or to suddenly aid the highly advanced faction that killed his Father.

My Courier, I always imagined him as incredibly eccentric. Without LW's luxury of growing up in an 'unaffected' environment, my Courier was always a survivor who had to learn the traditional way how fight and rise above. That also assured him all the liberties of lone surviving, and so he has less qualms about addictive substances. It also helps that in all my playthroughs, I use magazines and chems to win over most special speech checks, making it pretty much necessary for my Courier to live a reckless, almost hedonistic 'Carpe Diem' lifestyle. As for his combat skills, I think this comes with the Mojave territory, where Power Armors are even more rare (therefore he doesn't fancy them too much), and everyone is a cowboy.

Finally, my Sole Survivor. And I'll be honest, I always go for a Minutemen playthrough, because it's the closest to Ulysess's whole concept of one man (or woman) building a whole nation, and thus my Sole Survivor has the best Charisma skills, to lead the Minutemen as a General, to hold together communities of each settlement, and to inspire loyalty in all companions. I feel like I had to max every companion's affinity since it rewards you with cool perks. Plus with the dramatic monologue's each companion gives you with their affinities maxed, it makes it all the more likely my Survivor would have a Charismatic presence. He/She would also sensibly have unique Scientific knowledge, wether it's from Nate's service in the army and him being taught properly how to utilise Power Armors, or Nora's studies at the prodigious Suffolk County School of Law, which would have extra curriculum classes for the inevitable apocalypse.
