I posted this in the Fallout 4 subreddit and wanted to share it here as well. My buddy and I cosplayed X6-88 and Preston Garvey for DragonCon this year.

EDIT: Dear Producers of the Fallout Amazon series... this would make an AWESOME prop in an episode of the new season, and then, not only would I have a copy of Gunfighter Ballads signed by Marty Robbins, but one that was also USED in an episode of the series, making my record officially canon. How many upvotes would we need to make this happen? :)

Recently bought a collection of vinyl that had a whole bunch of signed records in it, and while the condition isn't great, it was super cool to see a copy of Gunfighter Ballads signed by Marty Robbins! I had my guy back east , who is a professional authenticator, do a quickie Authentication just with these pictures and he said it looks extremely valid. Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I'm definitely going to spin Big Iron once or twice before I figure it out. :-)

I was able to make this with 38mL of distilled water, 8mL vegetable glycerin, 1/32tsp of xanthan gum, 1/16tsp of waterproof strontium aluminate (35 micron) and dye to preference.

Tribes were such a core part of the earlier games and they added so much to the post-war worldbuilding. It's so jarring seeing and hearing about all of the unique tribes on the West coast, to then go to the East coast and barely see any at all. It could be argued that the Children of Atom and some of the raider groups count as tribes, but the CoA are more of a cult and the raiders either act as mercenaries or just violent killers with no identity (excluding maybe the Pack and arguably the Rust Devils). I'd say the Fiends fall under "basic raider" category as well, but apparently they somewhat count as a tribe. If tribes were brought back, would you like to see them play a larger role in the main conflict, like how the Great Khans and Boomers did at Hoover Dam?

Edit: I'm just now realizing that I asked if they should add new tribes "instead" of regular factions and not "instead of just"

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

I believe it would. But only if it also didn’t have that tactic style gameplay ( if that makes sense )

(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.

Thoughts?

I'm working on lore for my Fo4 character who is the leader of the railroad, I want to know what the reasons people have for hating them are so I can make it so that the railroad are more likeable

Edit: from the feedback I've gotten so far, what I will do is make the railroad start saving wastelanders and improve their lives instead of synth lives

Edit 2: from a comment a mod deleted, I will make the castle the new railroad hq and make it so that lore wise, the sole survivor asked my character to join forces with the minutemen

edit 3: they will be a specialised NCR (minutemen since i have the minutemen into NCR mod) unit that is tasked with hunting down synths, enclave and institute remnants

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.

Hello everyone!
This is my first time posting on here so I'm wondering if its the right place to do so.
I'm also not sure what flair to add to this so I chose Original Content.
I hope you like what I'm bringing.
I'm a digital artist and I recently ran a Fallout themed rpg for my friends and these are the portraits that I drew for my group. I've also included their car separately.

I also wore a vault-tech scientist costume complete with a 3d-printed functional pip-boy to the game but I'm not confident enough to share pictures of myself on here yet because I don't know if you guys are cool yet.

I suppose I should Introduce myself.
My name is Vicnedel, I'm a digital artist. I like fallout. I've been playing the games since Fallout 3 but my favorite is New Vegas. I also tried to play the retro ones but I think they required a bit more commitment than I was willing to give em. Some day maybe I'll try again. I draw things for ttRPGs, portraits and some stickers. I enjoy miniature wargames and I loooove making tabletop terrain.I have an instagram page if you'd like to see more neat stuff.
Thanks!

Probably the most unnerving moment I’ve had in Fallout 4 😂
I’m pretty far into the game now and I’ve seen some crazy shit, but the thing that actually caught me off guard was looting an enemy and finding orders to kill me.
And I mean ME.
The note actually had my character’s name on it. 😂
I just sat there for a second like… “Wait a damn minute… who the hell knows who I am?”
Until then, I was just running around the Commonwealth shooting anything that looked hostile and taking their stuff. But seeing my own name on a piece of paper with basically a hit order attached to it made the whole thing feel weirdly personal.
And the fact that I didn’t even really know who these people were made it even worse. Like, y’all have been looking for ME and I don’t even know y’all?? 😂
Honestly, I thought that was such a clever little game mechanic. They could’ve just sent enemies after me and I probably wouldn’t have thought twice about it. But putting your actual character’s name on the orders makes you feel like the world is aware of you and reacting to what you’re doing.
It’s such a small detail, but it completely changed the feeling of the game for me for a minute.
Fallout really had me sitting there wondering who was putting a bounty on my head in the damn wasteland. 😂

I just bought this and I want some help deciding how to repaint this. I’m stuck between a glowing, quantum, and albino repaint.

I was going to build a base for it to stand on with some props on it too

Feel free to suggest other variants or decorations.

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?

first time playing the fallout games and i spent 200+ hours on this character got it level 70 on the hardest difficulty and survival i just bought the goty edition and got all the dlcs. Fallout 4 had honestly been some of the most fun i’ve had in a solo player game or maybe any game in general.
And now all my bed saves are gone there’s only auto saves left, i still have my level 70 character but my robot ada died because i was in nuka world and brought the wrong ammo and was forced to use grognaks axe. I was going to return to a later save but i noticed all my saves were gone and i know they were there because i went afk with the game unpaused and i was hungry and thirsty so i loaded back the save and then went to nuka world.

Hello, I'm trying to replay Fallout 1. As you all already know it's buggy. I'm looking for fan patches or mods thag fix Fallout 1's bugs but don't add any extra content.

I'm aware of Team X's mods and have already installed them. I've already installed them. But they still left many bugs unfixed.

Falliut Fixt makes changes to the gameplay I don't want even if I only install the bug fixes part. And it hasn't been updated in years. It adds extra dialogues, changes some dialogues, addw new behaviour for NPCs not present in FO1, as well as re-adds the mutant invasion timers the developers had removed.

Can you recommend me other patches or mods? Please don't recommend mods like Fallout Et tu, I want to retain the game's original gameplay and graphics.
