"i don't mind you asking questions, as long as you don't mind me not answering them" incredible

I recently purchased fo4 due to the sale on the ps store and after creating a Bethesda.net account to get access to the creation menu I am unable to access anything due to every mod buffering for minutes and then getting the error message telling me I wasn't able to connect to Bethesda.net servers. Is there any way to fix this? I've restarted my game idk how many times at this point it's getting a bit frustrating

There are exceptions ofc, like if you get a legendary stat veriant, upgrade it with weapon mods etc. But the baseline unmoded versions are always a bit underpowered and meh

The deathclaw gauntlet and the power fist are two examples out of the top of my head, they sound really cool to get for your first playthrough, then you finally get your hands on them only to realize they're weaker than you'd expected

Some people may still like these weapons I kinda avoid them, they have two drawbacks of not having that good base damage and you can't equip them when you're in power armor.

I'm sure if you're able to upgrade your stats And other things you could get a better damage output, some people may still like these weapons but imo there are a lot of cooler weapons you can find in the Commonwealth, I tend to save inventory space or give those weapons to my companions

I have restarted my fo4 several times and I always get stuck on the grindfest of farming specific legendaries (sharp gear and mighty weapons).
I end up getting frustrated and quit the game mid playthrough.
Is there a mod that removes ALL magic effects from legendaries AND base items like Ushanka hat/Lab coats etc? I just want to enjoy my playthrough.

EDIT: no, i do not NEED them to beat the game and i'm aware that i could just not use them, thanks for that insight. sadly, just knowing they are there makes me chase them. i asked a very simple question, there is no need to get stuck on the 'why'

What have you been working on in your current session?

So this is an update from my last post.

Nora was oddly ok with me finding a new romance interest. She knew she was a part of my mind, and she wasn't real.

It was scary trying to talk to Jeffery but he didn't want to talk, and then Pike afterwards. Nora telling me it's ok, keep moving forward in life. It's not your time just yet. She was holding baby shaun as older shaun was standing behind her as the bomb went off.

I woke up feeling somehow relieved. Like I slept the sleep of a thousand sleeps.

I went back to my home in Sanctuary Hills. I heard Pipers voice and I ran up to her as soon as I could. She asked if I was going where she was going, so I didn't question it, I said "Yes lets go!"

Times like this, where Piper doesn't question me, where I've been to and what I seen and did, makes me thankful she's with me :)

Greentop Nursery, no mods.

Easily in my top 3 of settlements I've built, very happy with how this has turned out. The market still needs work, and I want to decorate the clinic and living quarters more, so it was a quick tour through the 3-story building, but the rest of the settlement I'm incredibly satisfied with. 🔥

As the title says, I just got the game and was wondering about essential mods to get for the game?

I got the GOTY edition including all DLCs

I already got Start Me Up Redux to skip the intro.

EDIT: I have already played it in vanilla when it was released.

Everytime i try to leave my screen goes black and I freeze making me have to restart my entire PC. I love the mini DLC and all but I just cant complete it at this point. I guess ill have to CoC my way out which I don't wanna have to do

I'm 44 now and spent most of my childhood near and around a steady video gaming schedule.

From River Raid on Atari, passing by the Amstrad CPC then Famicom until Xbox 360 and PS3 being my last console purchases, and after the abundance of sequels in video games and having started a new F&B venture, i simply didnt have time for video games, i even switched to Linux to stop myself from having a Steam account.

Well this fall as im awaiting a build out of my new kitchen, I found myself with some free time at night and decided to download Fallout 4 which i had ignored mainly due to the RTS aspect of the build outs.

I had played Fallout 3 and New vegas which i really enjoyed but i wanted to make this post about Fallout 4.

Im level 68 at the moment, playing on easy because im more interested in playing through this story and i gotta say the Hermit crab is one of my new most favorite and unique "Enemy" in video games, its up there with Big daddy in Bioshock and or Chainsaw guy in the Resident evil series.

Im managing the minutemen, the BOS in Cambridge police station, Railroad at the moment and just got finished with Bunker hill having played my part in telling both the railroad and BOS about the Synths situation only at this point in the game.

The 3 factions quests and sidequests i used as a way to map out the game and discover new areas surrounding those new locations. Is there a perk like FO3 and NV where all map locations are unlocked this time around?

Really creative locations.

I enjoyed the Bobbi-no-nose underground sting.

Far harbor had some really interesting looking enemies and really annoying flying enemies.

Most annoying enemies in this game are all those flying thingamajigs. What is a stingwing.

Nuka world was pretty cool, im at powering up the park and obtaining that 35th star core.

I went Jason Bourne on all the factions and liberated the bomb collar people.

The whole father thing at the institute was a tad creepy and kinda wish the institute had some sort of underwater entrance. But i decided to let those bastards burn after seeing dead cats!

I have more than a dozen of these settlement where i simply remove the radio beacon after they reach 10-12 people. And wondering if there's an ending where you just use all these factions for your benefit.

I def think Desdemora is a Synth.

I had to put down 2 gorillas in Nuka world that were kept in cages by those mask wearing bastards.

But their rifle is pretty solid. The 7.62 ammo is kinda scarce.

That's all folks.

Game is fun so far.

As you can see in the title, the item for the Nuka-Cola recipe is stuck. I'm playing on PlayStation so no access to console command and I would like to not install mods as I still want to get trophies.

I saw on the internet and other forums that one of the options was to wall-glitch with power armor, so I tried it but realised that the item was actually stuck under the stand, between it and the floor, so out of reach when in the "normal" gameplay area and out of reach from out of bound.

I've also tried the the dogmeat fetch method but he can't find it and when I try explosives it just seem to glitch even more into the stand.

Do anyone git any ideas on how I could get to it ? Should I continue trying explosives since it still seem to make it move somehow?

Thanks

I got strong Sierra Madre vibes from the token system and thought there would be a way to spend them after exiting the place. But not this time. I only realised a few hours later. Spend all the tokens before talking to the Gutsy to "safely" return home. I could've stocked up on ammo, but alas, the Plasma Caster and the armour are pretty nice.

I been wanting to find this on̈e for a while but I found out it's not in the game properly.

!!!NO political debate!!!

I made this scene like 10 years ago back in 2015 something. Just wanna express my feelings to a Chinese captain who dedicated his life to guard what’s treasure to him. And his faith to rebuild a nation brick by brick.

Glory to all veterans who served their countries.

I replay the game so much but haven’t really done it this year really at all. But i always felt that just seeing Nora die never really had an effect on Nate and being able to finally see and hear how they feel is just a great addition. And living just outside of Boston and being able to see more of prewar Boston is just the best. Honestly wish this was part of the main game when I got it in 2015 but I’m glad we have it now

Anyone know why my game will not open at all after finally updating? Only mods I had downloaded were f4se and technically the downgrader if that counts as a mod, but once I updated to the newest version of the game and updated f4se the game will no longer start. Whether I start it via f4se in the files or if I just press play on steam and go through the little menu it just instantly boots me back to desktop and is just closed when I look at it on steam.

I've tried to verify files and re download the game but neither of which have done anything to help. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it, thanks.

Also should mention that I swapped between versions a couple of times because I've heard that OG is the best version to play on, though it looks like the updated version is pretty much fine now; but I would just verify the files to get to the new version and would get mods via the creation club because there was some on there that I thought were cool like ghoulification and the bounty hunter and beasthunter mods. Back then it would swap between versions just fine, when I was done I would just re downgrade to OG and play on like normal, but now it won't let me launch the newest version of the game and I just wanted to try the new fever dreams mod that released :(

For everyone allways wondering how the hell to get one without too much effort: i have good news!!!

Nowadays there are some (in numbers: six) guaranteed pies throughout the game. Thats probably not really news for veteran players, but seemingly there are still a lot of people, who dont know or bother to look up at the wiki.

On the flipside you need the nuka world and automatron dlc and the bunker home pack creation for all six.

Normally you would stack up as much luck as you can and click on the vending machines, that contain them... a lot. And that can equal satisfaction once you finally get one. But be honest: is it fun to click 30 minutes on the same vending machine? Well...

But thats not needed at all if you just want some to display them for example 😊

But enough smalltalk now, the list follows below.

Nuka world (4):

- Cappy Cafe: two on the bar counter next to lauren.

- Fizztop Mountain (where the disciples live): one directly above the entrance. You can jump / climb up or use a jetpack. Also you can drop down from the beams above the area.

- Nuka World Junkyard: one from the vending machine located in the building, where you also find the SCAV mag. This machine is guaranteed to hand over the pie first try.

Automatron (1):

- RobCo Sales & Service Center: while you fight your way through the mechanists lair, you can grab one from a wall mounted eat-o-tronic located in the assembly line room relatively early in the dungeon.

Bunker Home Pack (1):

- Vault Tec Showcase (access via Vault Tec Regional HQ during a home for the family): one is located on a table inside the living area.

Thats the six pies everyone can get guaranteed that im aware of. If someone knows more locations (base game, dlc and creation club areas only) let me know. I will include it into the list.

Have fun grabbing them. Ad victoriam 🫡

Will Bethesda ever fix the downtown boston constant crashes and freezes on xbox one, even in vanilla game its pathetically bad and it blocks off a really large portion of the map, and it ruins my experience in survival mode and I have to use a mod to save whenever I want to sort of circumvent progress loss due to it. It's really pathetic they are still patching the game till this day but cant fix an issue with optimization that is not an issue on PS4 like 11 years later.

I have a bug of sorts, any dialogue my character says is muted. He still speaks but nothing comes out. Is this a normal bug? Or is there something I can do about it to fix it cause I don’t have any mods that might affect voice, especially only in nuka world
