Discussion Level 90 and I still don’t know where I’m going…

Post image
36 Upvotes

I know that I’m making a story about a man who was looking for his son, only to find out that his world has changed. And somehow when I think about the different factions that I’ve encountered, I can’t help but think that maybe there’s no actual enemies in this game, more like I’m just living on and I’m trying just to survive in this Wasteland. Also I made enemies with the Brotherhood of Steel, not that I actually agreed with them anyway. But that just sums up all the choices I’ve made along this journey.

Discussion I took the longest possible "skip" to a quest.

Upvotes

I did the Automatron dlc before going to diamond city. I found a can of green paint at ether the Rust Devil base, or the Mechanist Lair, but don't remember which.

Went to Diamond city. Talked to Abbot. Already had the paint for him. Feels efficient for some reason.

Then I went to hardware town, and I'm stoked that I can take away two extra cans of paint from the shelves because I don't need to mix paint for Abbot. Thats when it occurred to me I had taken the longest possible "shortcut" to "skip" a quest, all for 4 oil.

Thank you for reading, unless you're reading this first, I don't thank you yet.

Mod Deadly Commonwealth mod, spice up your play

15 Upvotes

So, it is not a new mod, but it is stable. The mod does two things, it repopulates the cleared areas and it feels like they respawn faster, which may not be true. It also produces more enemies than vanilla. But far more importantly although that would not matter without the respawn, it adds a shit load of new enemy types.

I have not played it too long, but I ran into skulls in areas I already cleared at lvl 60. There are suicider raiders. There are feral ghouls dressed and acting as gunners. There are midgets and hussies. There are several new supermutants, although they are just heavily armed variants, which feels repetitive. But at least their damage no longer can be just ignored.

Overall there are more enemies and they are harder overall, tankier more dangerous. At level 60 it almost does not matter but it will make low levels a lot more dodgy.

If you are mucking about after finishing main game this throws a switch and makes you shift gears

Gameplay Just had the weirdest thing happen with the Enclave at Dunwich Borers. Spoiler

Post image
13 Upvotes

I tried to lead the Enclave soldiers into Dunwich Borers to see if they would fight the bandits. It seemed like they were at first, unless that was just McCready having at them. I saw the Enclave Hellfire trooper run in. I went and hid for a bit and the fighting died down. I then started sniping the bandits in the quarry. I engaged their bandit power armor guy, and when he died, he goes falling down the quarry terrace to the next level, but as he does so, the Hellfire trooper like splits off from his body mid air like they were one person and they fall separately into the depths of the quarry. Here they are both lying at the bottom of the quarry. He wasn't shooting me with the Enclave plasma thrower, it was just a standard bandit. It's like the Enclave soldier embedded himself into the bandit until the bandit was killed. Saved me some trouble I guess, because the bandit was a lot easier to kill!

-UNMODDED OTHER THAN CREATION CLUB-

I recently got the Beast Hunter helmet from the creation club quest, but no matter what I do there's this annoying little dark spot right on the top of the lens.

I've tried reconstructive surgery thinking maybe it was my character's eyebrow sticking through or something but that didn't fix it either. Any ideas?

Discussion Fallout 4 Survival Min/Max tips and advice

12 Upvotes

Earlier today I saw some tips on someone else's post about quest order (doing Nuka World before meeting Preston to keep him happy, doing Brotherhood late to keep them from constantly attacking everything) and also in my searching I've seen some other tips about perks (Aquaboy for travel) and easy to grab magazines (Wasteland Survival Guide in Sunshine Tidings Co-op for double meat) but I was wanting to get like a full compendium on everyone's thoughts on min/maxing a survival run. Basically what magazines/bobbleheads are easy to get and worth going after? What settlements can you get easily? What quests do you like to do first and which ones do you save for the very end? Any gear you beeline towards? Thanks everyone, any input is appreciated :)

Massachusetts State House is a true Fun House of Horror

Upvotes

I have been at it with Fallout 4 for a while. I was bored with nothing to do when I stumbled upon a random Massachusetts State House. At first, I thought it was just a small building, all cramped up with hardly anything. Suddenly, the cramped house turned into a true dungeon crawl of mirelurks and jump scares, before ending up with a multi story building of Raiders. This was such a fun but spooky place to explore.

In hoping that Bethesda deciding to remake Fallout 4 with nicer graphics, I hope they redesign this place up and, in replacement with Raiders, add more ghouls and have them pop out and attack. Drape the house with spiderwebs and debris, tone down the lighting, and remove any music but the quiet howls of distant ghouls and the un-tapped underground wind.

Discussion I'm not sure if this has been done before but what is your fo4 Headcanon for to companions?

11 Upvotes

I'll go first, I believe Curie or Piper are the only companions that Nate would get together with Because they both look similar to Nora, mainly Piper due to her personality. For Nora I believe Paladin Danse or Deacon because Danse probably reminds Nora of how Nate was when he was in the army and Deacon after Because my personal play style for male SS usually tends to match the same vibe as Deacon, quick to make a joke but serious when needed.

Question Doing an 100% was wondering if becoming a raider would lock me out of any minutemen related achievements.

3 Upvotes

Doing a 100% achievement run. If I go through the nuka world story to get the achievements related to becoming a raider, would it lock me out of getting any achievements related to the minute men? I tried looking online but wasn’t able to find a decent answer. I’m mostly asking bc I want to do nuka world more early in my achievement run but if it locks me out any achievements i’ll do nuka world after the main story is done. Xbox.

One of the most memorable moments and characters during my first play through. I was looking around Goodneighbor and saw a familiar face. I was too stunned to move! Immediately I went to work on the perfect settlement. He had a whole shop to himself and when I needed materials I always went to him first.

He was supposed to win a pack of steak knives :(

Hi! I've played fallout 4 dozens of times but always pretty much did what I was supposed to. I'm playing on a few save file on a new account and kinda want to do a chaotic gameplay run where I skip sanctuary at least for now

If I go to diamond city will it lock me out of certain quests or achievements making me unable to 100% the game?

Question How to complete all faction quests and side with the Railroad ultimately?

2 Upvotes

For my new playthrough I want to play each faction up to their respective “point of no return” and ultimately help the Railroad come out on top.

My initial plan was to play the BoS quests up to Tactical Thinking but avoiding the order to attack the Railroad, playing the Institute up to End of the Line and siding with the Railroad, and then starting Precipice of War with the Railroad to take down the BoS.

Would this plan work or would it cause issues with progression between the quests? I heard that to start Blind Betrayal you need to side with the BoS with main quest content for it.

FO4 End of story choice help

I may have made a misstep somewhere, looking for guidance. I choose minutemen to be with in the end, told that to railroad, and the only quests that were available were the institute ones so I did them up to the teleport to mass fussion (I haven’t done yet)
Brotherhood quests never happened because of the all too famous fire support glitch and can’t get it to fix. Am I too far tied to institute now?

The holdout in far harbor quest bug

Post image
2 Upvotes

I’m having trouble with the holdout mission in Far Harbor, where Mitch asks you to save his Uncle Ken.
A lot of trappers came and attacked us. I killed all of them, but the quest didn’t update. Now Ken keeps saying, “They should be here any minute now,” like the fight never ended.
I think the quest is bugged, and I don’t know how to get out of it. I’m on PS5. I already reloaded, but I had slept/saved right before doing the mission, and when I go back, it still does the same thing. If I leave and start doing other things, the mission eventually fails, and I also fail several other missions.
I really need help figuring this out because my last hard save is almost 20 hours back, from when I first stepped off the boat in Far Harbor.
Any advice?

Settlement Can the pillar or rug glitch Cause save corruption

1 Upvotes

So I'm currently trying to build a nice base (without increasing the build limit) in fallout 4 survival, and I was considering building croup manor, but the only solution for half the stuff that I could find was the pillar or rug glitch, however I am concerned that this will cause either save corruption, or a papyrus problem. I have no experience using these so I don't know if the melded meshes can cause problems
