    Fallout | Current state of affairs in the US leads me to wonder. What if the reason we have so little information on the rest of the world in Fallout, is because they're actually fine. It's just the US and China living in a wasteland, and everyone else is like "yeaaa no. We're not touching that."

    Almost 3,500 hours into my favourite series, it all started with a super mutant

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 07:44 AM PST

    Quite long, sorry. I've been meaning to write this down for year, even if just for myself. I hope maybe someone would like to share their first memory of the Fallout series. If you love it as much as I do.

    The first super mutant. The one at the top of the slope of the metro tunnel as it opens up into the large underground station. The first one you meet. Involving some scripted radroaches running away. I didn't know it when I chilled at my friend's house, but I was about to sink almost almost 3,500 hours into my favourite game series: Fallout.

    At the time, I was 14 in 2011, I was absolutely obsessed with post-apocalyptic movies and content. I had never heard of Fallout before. I was at the friend's house for a couple days and he had an older brother that was a hard-core gamer, so they had all the new games and a great PC. I had a only just purchased a ps3 and the only game I had was Assassin's Creed 2.(fun as fuck) We stayed up late playing his Xbox 360 and PS2. GTA IV, Vice City, and Halo. Before then I'd never played these games so it was a totally new experience and I had a blast. I had maybe 15 games on ps2 and I had been playing them for years and never thought to save up money and buy new ones. We had an old Vista family PC that I could play flash games on and some old disks like star wars dark forces II. Never actually PURCHASED a game myself or really wanted to buy anything new. Driv3r and Ratchet & Clank were enough to satisfy me for years.

    He booted up Fallout 3 on PC and let me watch the intro. It was as if someone had asked me what I wanted in a game and created it. Fallout 3 was visually the most perfect game I'd ever seen. I was absolutely enthralled while the intro lured me in. The setting and story reeled me in like nothing before, the perfect apocalyptic landscape and exciting visuals. Even typing this i can feel the emotion and nostalgia. Truly, this was a game I HAD to purchase.

    This is such a clear, specific memory to me. He loaded his save game to let me play, though he had only put in an hour or so of playtime into this save file. Equipped with a sledgehammer and blue Vault 101 security armour the character was standing in the metro tunnel looking up ahead. It opened into a large metro station, though a silhouetted figure stood at the opening of the train tunnel. The radroaches ran away, scripted I'm sure. The figure was that of a super mutant(brute), a huge and hulking figure that stood ominously in the dark and dusty metro tunnel. Graphically it was the greatest game I had ever played and it was so eerily realistic to me as a young kid coming from old PS2 games.

    the image, as best I could find on Google.

    This image is burned into my mind and fills me with nostalgia everytime.After sinking a half dozen hours into it at his house I was hooked. I purchased it right away and played through Fallout 3 on a single save file, logging over 850 hours, making a save file so large my PS3 would crash every 5 minutes(at least a bit more than the usual crashing). I had never gotten so into a game in my life. I read page after page after page of lore and info and, I swear to fuck, I must have read every single goddamn page of the Fallout Wiki, twice. I collected every unique item, weapon, armour, visited every marked and unmarked location, completed every marked and unmarked quest. A whole summer I spent inside playing this game. I went everywhere and did everything for hours a day. It never got boring searching every single container in every location and scouring the map for small stories and events.

    I'd honestly say that Fallout 3 steered my love for video games, and which games I'd like. Half-Life and GTA/RDR series' were up there as well, but Fallout 3 was the perfect game for me. The setting and the backstory and the rich lore and the fun gameplay and looting and shooting felt tailored to my tastes. And the music- it changed my music tastes completely from loving System of a Down and Slipknot, to enjoying Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. If I could forget everything and experience it all over again I would do so in a heartbeat. Nothing could ever be as amazing and fun as this one of a kind game. Right?

    Then I heard about a game called New Vegas..

    The philosophy of the Railroad is critically flawed. (heavy spoilers.)

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 12:10 PM PST

    (I made this thread a week ago but forgot Edna, which is probably the most compelling part of the argument; I hope you guys don't think badly of me for having remade it.)

    The primary directive of the Railroad in FO4 is to free synths from the Institute's slavery. There is controversy within the Railroad as to whether only the Gen 3 synths should be freed, or also the Gen 1s that you typically shoot while running around the Commonwealth.

    The thing I don't understand is: what about the ROBOTS?

    When you enter the Diamond City school building, you get a heavy preview of the direction your interaction with Curie might take: the Miss Nanny assistant to Mr. Zwicky starts questioning you about love, and if you provide her with the right answer, you will cause her to marry Mr. Zwicky; by their interaction during the wedding at the Chapel of All Faiths, it's clear she loves him, and vice versa. That sounds pretty sentient to me! It is, of course, a prelude to Curie falling for the Sole Survivor, and many Fallout 4 fans think she's the best contender for romance with the Sole Survivor.

    Marriage and love in marriage sound like a very significant indicator of sentience and free thought, possibly the most important indicators possible in a being. Unlike Curie, Miss Edna doesn't ever turn into a Synth. I just don't see a difference in worth as a person, but the Railroad seems to.

    More on Curie, she as a robot, remarks how her colleagues in Secret Vault 81 insisted that she have her own terminal, which she was not comfortable with because RobCo programmed her to not own any property. But, that's just the thing: she achieved a new state of consciousness once she became a Synth. But her personality -- the vast majority of her -- is still Curie.

    There is also Codsworth, an unpaid robot butler who doesn't really seem to have any less a personality than Paladin Danse or Glory within the Railroad. He is a sentient, free-thinking being that has the capacity to care for a human child or even reject his former owner if he or she turns to evil. Shouldn't the Sole Survivor be judged by the Railroad to be a "slaver" for owning Codsworth and giving him nothing for his services? Shouldn't Codsworth's mind be judged as equal to a Synth's when he can make complex independent judgments as to morality and philosophy?

    The difference between synths and robots in terms of AI doesn't seem to be there. But, synths are considered by the Railroad to be enslaved while the robots, to my best understanding, are still considered "property." This point is never fully addressed and I think is a giant hole in the Railroad's thinking.

    Meeting Father for the First Time is a Marvel

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 08:58 PM PST

    Fallout 4 may lack in the dialogue area, but Fallout 4 exceeds at something that IMO, only Fallout 1 comes close to.

    When you first enter the Institute, you're welcomed by Father. A mysterious voice over the Institute's loud speakers who has a warm and welcoming voice. The tone of his voice and the usage of his words versus how your character would feel (and just being in the Institute) are a great juxtaposition.

    Secondly, upon reaching the elevator, you meet Shaun. You talk to him, try to calm him or get frustrated as he repeatedly calls for Father, and not long after is he shut down, shown to be a synth. The man who greeted you into his home just shut down another experiment to him in front of you - yet another experiment.

    You then have two options: talk or kill. Most players (I believe) talked to Father when they first played. And this introduces one of the best dialogues in any Fallout game IMO.

    It's a mix of many things, and some require a second playthrough. As mentioned you have the juxtaposes. You have him shutting off just another experiment to him in front of you, another experiment while Shaun is your main goal. It's practically teasing you. Then the acting itself is great. Both on the voice actors and also the character models. Each facial expression for both you and Father are on point, the way, timing, and overall movements of the character models is also phenomenal. You can straight up dismiss Father's allegations. You can shoot him whenever you want. You can talk to him and be swayed. Just in shock. Etc. It gives you many different ways to feel, with the overall mood being rather ominous.

    First meeting Father has been noted as an iconic moment for me in Fallout as a franchise, and I firmly believe no one else has come close in Fallout besides the Master.

    Okay, work is slow and I’ve got Fallout on the brain, so screw it. I’m going to attempt so explain how V.A.T.S works from the real world perspective. Warning, it’s kinda long.

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 07:47 PM PST

    So, first off, I'm going to state elements of the mechanic and what will be discussed that I think are purely for the gameplay aspect and do not have a lore explanation(like how your character can carry three hundred pounds without a backpack or any of it showing on the character. It's just a game). Apologies for the formatting as I'm on my phone currently.

    1.) The big one, the time freeze upon activation. I believe with the engine the game was created in and the limitations they had, rendering and using it in real time would have just been too taxing, and most likely very annoying to code. Especially if the player were to switch between first and third person perspective while it was activated, or trying to keep track of enemies that ran in and out of its range in real time. I believe this is actually supported by Fallout 4's changing it to just a SLOWED time perspective. It took a pretty big technological advancement and even more familiarity with the engine to figure out how to get it to move at all. It's also just easier for the player to use in general, as it lets you plan an attack( or one of my favorite things , just scan the area. I love doing that.)

    2.) I will discuss the compass at one point, and the ticks it gives to show NPCs. I believe the color of said ticks is ,again, just for the players convenience( I actually have modded the red ticks out in the past, changing them all to green. Pretty from for a more hardcore play style if you haven't tried it.)

    Also, this is not meant to be an explanation of the exact details of the technology, but a "working understanding" of it. So let's begin.

    I think the biggest thing to point out is what the "A" in V.A.T.S stands for, and that is "ASSISTED". It's my interpretation that that means it simply HELPS you in choosing your targets, I do not believe it aims for you. I have heard arguments that the Glove paired with the Pip-Boy has some type of neurological stimulation that affects muscle control. I believe this is debunked simply by there being variants across the games that do not use the glove, and some models are so simple that they require only a latching mechanism like the one seen in F04 (as opposed to the MK 3 used in 3 and Vegas that is implied to be difficult to remove without proper tools, for example see the entire Anchorage plot.) I also do not believe that the user sees the calculations and percentages like in the game, this being just another gameplay convenience, but that everything is represented on the Pip-Boy screen. This would mean it would most likely not be used as a snap reflex when caught unaware, but more realistically when the user has time or is using it upon unaware enemies and trying to find out who is the optimal target to take down first. (Much how like in the real word chugging soda will do nothing to stop the blood loss from the deranged cannibal who just stabbed you, yet in game it heals you.) Now to get to my point about this section of the post, I believe that V.A.T.S is......just math. It's a probability calculator. Now, on to how and what it calculates.

    Despite the 50s aesthetic, Fallout is still set far into the future, and has aspects such as Teleportation, Robot servants, laser and Plasma weaponry that somehow doesn't kill the user immediately despite how hot plasma would be if weaponized to that extent. No, beyond the old school transistor radios and blocky PCs, I think we can all agree on the simple fact that the technology in Fallout is SIGNIFICANTLY more advanced than ours, and thus their versions of the same technology we have would be far more capable and better at what it's intended to do. I believe the Pip-Boy uses two things to calculate your hit chance. Some form of sonar or 3D scanning, and it's connection to your biological data. Let's begin with the Sonar/3D scan.

    If you activate your local map, you'll realize very quickly that the sections that are unexplored are grayed out. That's most likely because the Pip-Boy is actively scanning and saving the data it receives of your surroundings, down to the details of the shape of rubble protruding from walls. That, in my opinion, proves it is capable of scanning an environment to retrieve data of physical objects. I think that's the first step in its calculations. What's around me? Step two would be identification of potential targets, and that I believe is simply motion sensing, though a much more advanced form. Possibly using metrics of how big an object is( like how a bird probably won't set off your motion sensing porch lights) or it's velocity, or most likely a mixture of the two(which would be why you can shoot grenades out of the air, though realistically by the time you made your choice it would have already landed, taking into account how it most likely does not actually alter the perception of time.) It could also track these objects in real time, and display them on your Pip-Boy's compass, alerting you to nearby objects it (accurately) deems as living mobile creatures. It would even translate to them standing still using its scanning capability, the same way it keeps your map data. It has designated this mass as a potential target, and continues to do so once that masses motion ceases. Now step three. Is there any object of substantial size BETWEEN me and the target that would designate it a non viable target? For instance you can still aim at someone in FO3 if they crouch behind the dividers on the highways, despite you not being able to see their full body physically. You still "see"the outline, which to me says the Pip-Boy has analyzed the size of the target vs its cover and still deems it viable.

    Now for part two, your personal biometric data. Take for example an Apple Watch telling your your pulse and heart rate, or a Pulse Oximeter that hospitals use(that little thing they clip on your finger to make sure you're getting enough oxygen.) It's possible in our less advanced world to get accurate medical data through physical contact, so I believe the Pip-Boy has that capability cranked up to 11. It can read the status of radiation, breaks and fractures in your body, your health and injuries overall, it can even tell if you have a concussion or are under the effects of toxins and poisons. It's safe to assume it can read pretty much anything that would be relative to your performance in COMBAT. How capable are you of physical strenuous activity right now? How steady is your hand?(For instance, if you break your leg it knows, but your accuracy is unaffected in V.A.T.S. Break your arm, though? Much less likely to control a gun or swing a knife with real precision, and thus that percentage to hit decreases.)

    I believe it combines these two data pools. The surrounding environment and potential targets within it, and your own physical capability and any injuries relative to the weapon you would be controlling. As an explanation for increased accuracy with higher skills, think about actually practicing a skill. For anyone who's into firearms, I sure you noticed that over time, your muscles learned. How to pull the trigger smoothly, where best to shoulder and grip the gun for stability. I'm sure if you pay attention, you'll notice your muscles even relax more, as the muscle memory sets in. Your body is less tense. If it can detect broken bones, there's no reason to believe it couldn't sense the small vibrations from an unpracticed hand, which would most definitely effect your aim.

    So in conclusion that is what I think V.A.T.S ACTUALLY IS. It's a probability calculator that the wearer uses to judge what target to engage, based on its predicted likelihood of you landing your shot. It's your personal targeting assistant.

    I've finally come back to play NV after giving up 2 hours in the first time. Oh my god I love it.

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 12:00 AM PST

    So I'm a huge Fallout fan. I know it sounds ironic to say that on a post about never having played NV but trust me. ADHD hyperfixations are intense man.

    There isn't a single piece of lore I do not know, I own several pieces of merch (guides, art books, a hoodie, some gifted small collectibles), I used to blow time in class scrolling endless threads of fan art, I have over 2000 hours in Fo4, over 1000 in 76 (which I quit cuz I couldn't keep up with the battle pass), and I've played 1 and 3. I've probably watched hundreds hours of Fallout lore videos, I cook a lot so I've fucked around and recreated recipes and made elaborate cakes, etc, etc. I was a very lonely and self conscious kid if you can't tell lol.

    I express my deep deep love of the series not to flex how massive of a loser I am, but to lead up to this. During the summer, I tried New Vegas. And I fucking hated it. I knew all the lore and everything already. I knew it was supposed to be the best. And I HATED it.

    I had no fun, I wrote a scathing review on steam. I said the games intro was boring and the enviroment sucked, and the gunplay was ass, etc, etc.

    But 3 days ago, I decided to play again. I decided to really force it. What I learnt was that I hated FNV because the internet had really not properly told me what to expect.

    When you watch FNV anything videos it's all about the factions and their interactions. But the issue with that is basically all of them make it seem like the time between Goodsprings and getting the chip is maybe an hour or 2 max. No one ever really dives into the like 8-10 hours of shit there is for a new player to do just reaching New Vegas.

    They also downsell New Vegas. I'd always pictured it as maybe half the size of Diamond City in Fo4.

    Nononono. New Vegas feels big and fleshed out. The landmass of it is good sized and within 10 minutes of entering Freeside I'd been jumped, lured into an alley, bought a fake passport, found out abt a secret gun stash. Theres so much packed in there.

    Not to mention I really appreciate that sometimes it's up to you to put stuff together. Some of the most fun I've ever had in a Fallout game was finding out who kidnapped Boone's wife using my actual real life ability to read people and notice discrepancies and stuff. And then even though it was easy as shit, how uncovering it once I had my lead felt like a Bond film.

    My character is far from optimal. My highest skills are speech and guns, I've got good Medicine, and ok Barter, and some points tossed in lockpicking and repair. But oh my god does leveling feel good in this game. Just choosing traits at the start is great (I went wild wasteland and skilled) and every single time you get to choose a perk it feels like a real cool new thing and is super exciting (I have Lady Killer, Confirmed Bachelor, Bloody Mess, and Educated, which I'm now noticing looks like I'm going for max damage but really my goal is to just fuck everything that moves and make human goo). Even splitting up skill points feels good cuz it isn't just Fo4s "level up, put perk point into thing that lets you do what skill can do, level up, do it again" 1 level at a time.

    Basically I maintain my steam reviews points that the game isnt super interesting to look at, and the combat doesn't feel the best. But oh my god is it worth it. It feels like a real adventure where stuff is really going on and you really matter and are unique. I've seldom been this immersed in a game. And NEVER in a game with graphics that look like they could've been late PS2. But man does FNV do it for me. I really love this game, and I'm happy I didn't let the misrepresentation of its pace and timing ruin it for me.

    I can't wait to play the DLC, as with 4, I actually like the DLC more than the main story, and I've heard wicked stuff about the NV DLC.

    Sorry for the rant. Needed to put it somewhere. Thanks!

    Fallout 3 Broken Steel DLC has more content than I expected

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 03:30 PM PST

    I recently returned to Fallout 3 after several years and decided to get the most out of it, visiting each area in the map, taking the time to enjoy the moment as opposed to running or using fast travel all the time. So after finishing the main story, I decided to just go around the map instead of heading straight with the scribe rothchild to do the final quest. I did not expect to find so many other things, from caravans traveling with water tanks, tense encounters between caravans and wastelanders and many other problems around the new clean water, showing that the wasteland capital is still as chaotic than before.

    New Vegas FPS dops

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 01:29 AM PST

    Specs:

    GPU: AMD 5700XT

    CPU: Ryzen 5 3600X

    RAM: 32GB DDR4 3200Mb/s

    The game is on my NVME.

    With all that said, there is no reason I should get any spikes, and for the first day of playing I didn't, but recently I've been getting moments, mostly while I'm indoors but sometimes outside, where my framerate goes waaay down. Sometimes its only if I'm facing a certain direction.

    Or my game will be smooth, but if I move my mouse and look around, it gets really choppy. I've downloaded the Unofficial Patch, a stutter remover, and the 4GBNV mods, but nothing has helped.

    Please, if anyone has any suggestions, this is my first time playing New Vegas, and I'm loving it so far, but these are becoming too annoying to deal with.

    My Stupid FNV "Fantastic" Story

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 12:54 PM PST

    I have been playing New Vegas for years now, and I confess to actually having done the final quest only 3 times in total, 2 as Independent and 1 NCR (I have a tendency to create new character builds frequently, owing to FNV's amazing replayability :^D).

    Well, in said NCR playthrough, I completed the "That Lucky Old Sun" quest sending power to The Strip & McCarran, causing Mr. Fantastic (the star of this show) to receive a considerable promotion for his remarkable contributions to the interests of the Republic, from Helios One admin, to "goddamn dam god". Fair enough, I mean, the guy IS Fantastic after all.

    That was when that character, a gun-slinging Cowboy build with no Science skill investment, was maybe around level 14-ish. After that, I continued the playthrough as normal: I helped the NCR in anyway I could, blissfully blasted Legionnaires at any chance I got, convinced a community of trigger-happy crazy bastards to bomb the sh*t out of the East side of Hoover Dam, peacefully resolved the conflict between the NCR and a bunch of local smooth-talking Elvis wannabes, tried to seduce Ms. Rose of Sharon Cassidy (emphasis on tried, even though I had High Speech and the Lady Killer perk, but I digress), replaced a robot-dog's brain, helped a community of Super Mutants and Nightkin... you know, the usual. The point is, by then, I had almost completely forgotten about Mr. Fantastic and his stupid sunglasses.

    Near the "end" of the playthrough, I was on Hoover Dam, just walking around, getting to know the place, instead of just going straight to Lt. Boyd as I was used to do at that point. Imagine my surprise when, among all the workers and engineers, I spotted a stupid familiar face, looking at me through his stupid sunglasses: Mr. Fan-f*cking-tastic in the flesh. Not skipping a beat, I went to say hi to my friend, and he rambled on about his very important task in this whole operation, which, in layman's terms, was just pressing a button to change the flow of water in some pipes. "Okay," I thought, "it's a nice detail that the devs actually had a sort of conclusion written for his story". I didn't think anything more of it at that time and carried on with the game.

    Que the final Quest, "Eureka!", to change the fate of the Mojave forever. I was shooting Centurions and Prime Legionnaires left, right and center, making my way to the Dam's flow control console to chop some sneaky Legion boys to pieces with the turbines, and when I finally made it there, I was shocked to find a prompt with a Science skill check my character had no chance in hell of passing no matter what. I felt a brief moment of disappointment as I was about to miss the chance to screw even more with the Legion, when I noticed the second option in the prompt:

    "Press the button Fantastic said and divert the flow of the turbines" (or something along those lines)

    Needless to say, I laughed like an idiot after realizing that the small conversation I had previously with Fantastic in the Dam, which seemed totally inconsequential at the time, actually had led to unlocking an alternative on this particular stage of the final fight between the NCR and the Legion, turning the tides of battle in favor of the NCR.

    And that was how I fell in love with this game for the 7th time.

    Tl;dr: Stupid sunglasses-wearing "genius" made local man fall in love with videogame all over again.

    PS: I looked through the Fallout: New Vegas Wiki, and could not find any mention of this, neither on Fantastic's page or Eureka!'s. Has somebody else encountered this on their game? Or was I just tripping balls that whole time? I swear it's real.

    I really want to see a Fallout game set in the south.

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 11:26 AM PST

    Think about it, the south has many different areas that could be explored, large cities, swamps, sprawling forests, etc. Not only that but we have a lot of historical sites that could provide massive amounts of lore to pre-war America. This can be things from the colonial days, all the way to locations like the Kennedy Space Center that could show the difference in exploration and a space race that might have never ended do to the red scare still being alive and well. This could be the chance for us to see the societal change in something like the civil rights movement and how it could have been accelerated from mutual hate of communism or slowed by larger threats to America.

    Mothership zeta weapons

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 03:32 PM PST

    Hi guys! Playing FO3 for the first time (a bit late to the party, I know) and I started the zeta mission without knowing that it's basically a dlc.

    Going there on level 7, I got crazy at the amount of amazing equipment you can find onboard.

    The problem is that, not knowing I couldn't go back, I brought MY WHOLE equipment with me, so I cannot take much back on wastelands when I finish.

    I think it's a shame I have to left those great machines back, so I'd like to ask you, is it possible in any way to have access to the alien weaponary AFTER you finish the quest??

    What do the hardcore Fallout fans think about FO76?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 12:09 AM PST

    I like the fallout games, but i wouldnt consider myself as a diehard fan of it. I played Fallout 4 and had my fun and i playing new vegas now for the first time and its a hell of fun (just wanna explain where im comming from)

    I downloaded 76 on my xbox because its in the game pass and my fucking god, its such a mess. The world looks interesting and thats pretty much it. Graphics are awful, game is buggy beyond believes and its so godamn boring. I heard a few people still have hundrets of hours in this game and i really, really wonder why you dedicate yourself to spend so much time in this... piece of software?

    Constantly crashing/freezing on my Xbox one

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 08:24 PM PST

    So my game has been crashing lately. I got rid of a bunch of mods hoping that would fix it but it still freezes after just just walking for a bit or getting into combat. I've tried loading an older save and it still freezes up. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

    [all] tell me about your fallout ocs!

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 10:28 AM PST

    give me your vault dwellers, chosen ones, lone wanderers, couriers, what have you! im interested in what creative things yall bring to the humble player character! i'll share mine here too :)

    [editted to add more detail to my characters]

    my fo1 character is named martin. he has high intelligence and agility, a rather slim fellow with glasses. he starts his adventure bright eyed and bushy tailed but finds himself jaded and dejected by the end of his tale. too much radiation exposure causes some of his skin to corrode, eventually turning him semi-ghoulish. he records his adventures in a journal, which his descendant (the chosen one) adores to read.

    my fo2 character is currently unnamed but is a kind and curious tribal. she cares for the people she comes across (especially her companions) and has pride in her ancestory. sometimes a little too much pride though. shes rough around the edges, and doesnt shy from the trill of combat when its absolutely necessary.

    my fnv character is the epitome of a chaotic neutral anarchist. he teams up with yes man, kills mr house, and leaves ncr and legion to fend for themselves. he hates stuck up snobs, especially the brotherhood. hes overall an okay guy but is completely unpredictable.

    ive started playing fo3 but havent really formed a true character for it. havent played fo4 or fo76 yet.

    High GPU Usage [FO4]

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 07:46 PM PST

    So I'm aware I'm VERY late to the party, but I just started playing FO4 in earnest. Loving it so far, but I'm having a strange issue with high GPU usage. Regardless of the graphical settings (I tried all settings low, all the way up to ultra) my RTX 2070s is running at a steady 100%, low temps though (around 55-60).

    My frame rate is great with all settings maxed out, 100+. No other games push it to a constant 100%, not even RDR2. Any idea why this is happening? Should I be worried? My game has crashed a few times as well, seemingly out of the blue.

    Specs: i9-9900k, RTX 2070super, 32gb RAM

    EDIT Not being caused by FO4, it IS in fact happening in other games that shouldn't be pushing it.

    Fallout 3 A world of pain 4d storage device locations for people that also cant find any answers with google.

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 12:44 PM PST

    Yeah so I started playing new vegas with a wabbajack modpack and this included Tale of Two Wastelands and A world of pain for fallout 3. and noticed theres some cool storage capacity increasing items that are very rare but a world of pain doesnt give any hints or clues as to where to find them.

    These are the ones i have been able to find with locations:

    -Mark 1: springvale sewers

    -Mark 2: taxidermist who lives in the cooper hotel close to the super duper mart

    -Mark 3: in the insane asylum thats close to national guard depot, where you find the guns bobblehead . at the end of the quest in the bedside end table

    Mark 4: in the crystal city sub basement A, you can enter the crystal city via the old olney metro line wich can in turn be easiest accessed via the old olney fire station

    Mark 5: easiest to get, at the start of a new game just before leaving the vault next to the vault cog door there is a terminal where you can choose your class pick warehouse. (if you are like me playing the vault courier dcnv modpack/list the item ID is 1006FC54 so you dont have to restart the game or u can pick another class if you fancy that more)

    Anyway i probably missed one or more and id love to hear it if you found another this is mainly to help out the other hoarders playing with this mod installed.

    I am having trouble starting up fallout 3 GOTY on pc

    Posted: 07 Jan 2021 10:26 PM PST

    When I start up fallout 3 GOTY, the game start up menu pops up and I click start to fully open the game. But then it quits the game without showing the menu.if anyone could help me I would be appreciative. (I also bought it on steam if that has anything to do with it)
