    We all know and love all the songs on the radio to the point where we can sing along and memorize the lyrics but I was actually blown away by the supposedly common but actually hidden feature for me which is the music when the radio is turned off in the pipboy..

    Gonna have to do the whole thing again with the radio off for most of the time because I felt like I missed half the game without the ambient score being heard.

    I've played Fallout 4 ever since it came out but i never actually got to play any of the DLC's cause i wasn't that interested in them. Yesterday i played Far Harbor. Holy shit it's so good

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 05:54 AM PST

    I can't believe that i didn't touch any of the DLC's for this game for so long, particularly Far Harbor. This is not only one of the best DLC's for a Fallout game, it's one of the best DLC's for any game period. Like i would put this up there with the Following DLC for Dying Light. The story, the characters, the setting, the atmosphere, the actually interesting dialogue choices and decisions you get to make is so good and so well done that it kinda surprised me a few times. It's obvious that Bethsda went like "Hey, Point Lookout was good right? Let's do that but with a more fleshed out story" and they succeeded. This DLC also proves to me that Betheda absolutely 100 percent understands what Fallout is and what it should be when they want to

    The next Fallout, I want to see a faction of ghouls claiming to be superior.

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 12:54 PM PST

    I've thought that being a non-feral ghoul would be awesome because they can withstand radiation and live super long. Shouldn't they be arguing they are the next evolutionary step? I'd love to see an entire faction of ghouls wanting to rule over humans.

    would it be a good idea to add the s'lanter to a fallout mod

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 01:21 AM PST

    my friend is making a fallout 4 mod set in Washington state and I suggested adding the s'lanter to it
    for those who don't know the s'lanter are a cut idea from fallout 1 who are a group of intelligent raccoons that are a result of FEV experiments at westek the idea was cut because it "didn't fit" which I think is BS especially since fallout 1 and 2 already had way more outlandish ideas in them I've even figured out how to explain them being in western Washington but i'd like a second opinion
    so should we include the s'lanter in our fallout mod

    TIL that you can sneak or run away from Officer Kendall, refuse to help Butch mother from being killed by radroaches and listen those two having a dialogue I never thought exist.

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 11:06 PM PST

    If you refuse to help Butch mother, he attract officer Kendall attention for help assuming he survive the 3 radroaches attacking him, who then tell Butch to go to his room and also refuse to help Butch mother which he specifically mention a lush of a mother, who Butch then tried to sell the Doc son/daughter out, you, the Lone Wanderer, but will only tell where you went in exchange saving his mother, who of course threaten to beat him to death if he doesnt tell where the player went which he also mention they, the security officers just beat a man to death, Jonas that is.

    And yes the dialogue between them is more fuck up than it seems. I actually feel bad even knowing he try to sell you out. After all he only did it so he can save his mom.

    I got my dad into playing Fallout 4

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 04:32 AM PDT

    And he seems to be having a blast! The last game he seriously played (that I can recall) was either Final Fantasy or Ocarina of Time, both over 20 years ago.

    He recently retired and had gotten an PS4 some time ago so my mom could play Tomb Raider and/or watch Netflix, though she never used it. I had mentioned to my dad all of the XBONE games that I owned after noticing he had a PS4 and mentioned how Fallout 4 and Skyrim were pretty much must-haves, and were also the style of game he would enjoy. Cue a few weeks or so later and I come over to find my dad seriously searching for mini nukes for his fat man, and scavenging junk to get enough caps to buy a legendary weapon from KLE0.

    I've been over to visit at least once every other week or so, and each time he's got his 4k Television on and going away at Fallout 4, which is cool that I seemingly talked him into checking it out (I did also mention that Fallout 4 takes place primarily in and around the greater Boston area, and my dad is originally from Lowell - so I think that may have piqued his interest). I still ask if he has joined the correct faction yet (Institute) without spoiling anything...he hasn't yet (he's just focusing on fortifying the Red Rocket and finding mini nukes), but I am eager to see who he ultimately winds up siding with.

    Would you like to get a spinoff building game?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 03:14 PM PST

    Let's say: Fallout Kansas.

    We play as a member of craftsmen guild, who are engaged in restoration and rebuilding old buildings, and construction of settlements, and creation of infrastructures. Character will be engaged in construction and architecture of settlements, hire residents and workers. Because main character is not particularly with fighting, they will be protected by settlers. Goal of game is to build, farm resources, and defend your settlements. More interactive Fallout Shelter in 3D.

    Sunny Smiles and Cheyenne, Fallout NV

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 03:46 PM PST

    Just started Fallout NV after playing FO4 for a year. Started it loved it instantly, got 5 hours in, and then realized I wanted to start over and do the first few quests more carefully. Just restarted my second playthrough with a tweaked character build.

    I have to say, Sunny Smiles is such a great character! I wish she and Cheyenne could be companions in the game. But then I guess there would be no one left to keep the Geckos away from Goodsprings. Oh, well.

    [Spoilers Fallout 4] What route would Abernathy even take to get to Diamond City!?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 11:28 PM PST

    1. He's got Lucy, and likely Clarabell too for hauling the goods.
    2. Both he and his daughter are armed with a peashooter or a double barrel.
    3. Zero armor.
      -
      This dude needs to
      - avoid the hell out of Lexington, Corvega, and Cambridge.
      - Elude Reggie Blattaria and his legion of roaches
      - Not get eaten by bears at the campgroud
      - Not get shredded by the ghouls on the rails, or Gorski Cabin.
      - Not get sniped by Gunner assholes on the overpasses dominating the area between his farm and the river.
      - Keep Lucy from getting distraced by all the kitties (how the fuck is that lone catlady even alive?! Prostitution and Epic Cat Launcher?)
      - NOT GET MASHED BY THE BEHEMOTH AT CARHENGE
      - Not get noticed by the drunks at Beantown, Walter's posse, Red Tourette's crew, or those two fuckers using settlers for target practice behind his own damn house.
      - Not get gorebagged by the mutants at the treatment plant.
      - Somehow squeeze a Brahmin through that gap by the railcar behind beantown!? not likely. How has this not been moved in 200 years?! (I got a mod for that XD)
      All this to hug the river Eastward after Greygarden, along the water behind Cambridge Police Station, and hope that the rowdies at the Fraternity Post are asleep only to come to a raider bottleneck at the USS Riptide.
      Greygarden -> Oberland -> Vault 81 ->Diamond city through the sunken tunnel with the scavenger merchant is literally the safest leg of the journey if considering all of the above, provided the obstacles are gone through.
      _
      Going Southwest via the Runaway's Cabin, still takes him to the Ration depot, a deathclaw nest and the treatment plant- plus the minefield up between Nuka Station and Fort Hagen.
      -
      His only other option is taking a huge detour to Watts Electronics via Starlight to Covenant- which of course is FUCKING COVENANT, but there's safety until BADTFL- which he needs to pass to get to Bunker Hill because the supermutants, ghouls, and raiders own everything between the frat post and the gift shop by bridge to the Pickman Gallery.
      Now of course he's fucked because Swan is camped out in the commons and theres a tower full of raiders along the river between Pickman Gallery and the Bandshell full of Hubologist wannabes.
      So unless a fully loaded Clarabell can swim, I can only assume that they've got a secret tunnel dug all the way to the city, or Lucy is secretly Wonder Woman- and we've already got her singing at the Third Rail. Probably should just sell his shit at Goodneighbor come to think of it.

    Teal Deer: Him and Lucy are outgunned and surrounded by fuckery of every conceivable kind. No way in hell he makes it to Diamond city without superpowers (like plot armor) or a bunch of mercs he can't afford.

    What are people’s hopes for the Microsoft acquisition?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 04:48 PM PST

    Just wanted to pose the question as broadly as I could, whether as simple as "don't fuck it up" or as complicated as " I want Windows 11 to be a vault terminal."

    Some of my own modest hopes:

    • Way bigger and better radio music selections.
    • 4K/60fps support for all the older games
    • Better server support for 76/discount on FO1st with gamepass membership

    Larger hopes:

    • Another Obsidian fallout
    • make every previous Bethesda game into SE versions (ie include all their dlc on gamepass like they do with Skyrim)
    • maybe possibly a faster time table on new releases? Ie please don't make me wait a decade for a new fallout which seems to be our current timetable.

    Impossible hope:

    • Full scale remakes of older games a la FO4NV.

    Bosco: A Missed Opportunity.

    Posted: 14 Mar 2021 01:12 AM PST

    Exploring the ruins of Boston, most of our Sole Survivors have stumbled across D.B. Technical High School, a raider encampment sprawling every habitable nook and cranny of the former Catholic Tech School.

    As we can read from the terminal entries from across the wastes and particularly here, the raiders of D.B. are headed by an insane man by the name of "Bosco" and right off the bat we notice some unique things.

    Starting small, let's look at his impact on the raiders around him. For example, should we kill Bosco before dealing with Saugus Iron Works' Forged, we note that the killing of Bosco is the only thing that makes Slag think Commonwealthers are competent. This is coming from the leader of arguably one of the largest and most powerful raider bosses north of Pittsburg.

    Not only that, but we can find out that he has subjugated most of the Boston raiders into his gang, with Back Street Apparel being the only independent hideout.

    Continuing on noting Bosco's achievement, we note that he has actual tactics on his side instead of throwing his men at the enemy like a hammer. Taking a look into his terminal entries, we discover that Bosco took out the Shamrock Taphouse gang by having a spy sneak into their ranks, break the locks, and then set loose Bosco's dogs. Those that survived were offered a deal and they took it. Now, considering Shamrock Taphouse isn't empty when we find it, we can infer the deal was assimilation.

    To us, living in the modern age, this may seem basic and simple. But these are revolutionary tactics in the age of raiders and slavers. Not only does he use his resources effectively, he knows when to shut up and stop his expansion. We know this because he writes that he hasn't taken Libertalia yet because his men wouldn't know how to handle the terrain.

    He knows his limits, he conquers and makes deals to maximize his efficiency, he uses tactics and diplomacy, he's a genius compared to most of the other bosses.

    We later learn that he was bitten by one of his dogs, and is slowly going insane because of rabies. He harshly punishes his own men, and has even set up a throne with the heads of his foes by his side.

    There is an obvious connection to Caesar. He's a tactical genius for his era and yet is irrational and brutal.

    And what do we get out of the great Bosco? A repeating micro-boss encounter where the whole gimmick is "Haha funny bear head".

    Bosco was a massively missed opportunity and I'm ashamed of Bethesda for throwing him away.

    Is it worth it to get a PC for FO3/NV

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 05:01 PM PST

    I've always wanted to play a heavily modded version of both games to make the graphics better but I play on console. Is it worth it to get a PC for just fallout/elder scrolls? Or should I stick to my Xbox one x?

    If you have too many water pumps in a settlement, will it stop giving you the excess?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 07:53 PM PST

    I have like 8 Industrial Water Pumps at sanctuary hills, acquired legitimately (they're seriously WAY too easy to fuckin get...), and I noticed after about a week in the wasteland, mostly doing good neighbor stuff with Hancock and stuff like that, I had 0 extra purified waters in my Workshop. I like to have a decent supply left over, especially on this character because I put my charisma at one like a dumbass and can't do supply lines, so I need to be able to distribute the extra manually rn between settlements.

    Is there like a known glitch which will cause the pumps to stop producing excess water bottles, or something? I've noticed that usually the extra resources are deposited every 3 days, when vendors reset in other words, and I'm pretty confident it's been at least 3 days since I last checked.

She wrote from the perspective of the overseer and included fallout goodies. This should be a thing. It's like literal happy mail.

    Where do you want the next Fallout game to take place in?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 01:38 PM PST

    I know this dead horse has been kicked so much that it came back to life and got kicked to death again, but where do you want the next Fallout game to take place in? I've a few ideas myself:

    • Chicago's one good place. It was stated in New Vegas that there are Enclave outposts there, and Fallout 3 and 4 mentioned a Brotherhood of Steel presence there as well. It would be interesting to see another clash between the two factions.

    • New Orleans is an interesting place for a couple of reasons. Seeing as the series has dabbled with the supernatural (the all but blatant Lovecraft references in Fallout 3, New Vegas, 4, and 76, as well as the cult in the Point Lookout DLC), New Orleans, with its long and storied history of the supernatural, has all kinds of possibilities. Also, depending on how much water remains in the area, the possibility of vehicle travel (boats, rafts, and hoverboats specifically) also exists.

    • Alaska, the site of the last battle of the Great War, before the bombs dropped. Perhaps the descendants of the US and Chinese militaries (as well as the ghoulified remnants of the original militaries) are still fighting a war that has long since ended? A good plot idea would be for the player to either win the war for one side or the other, destroy both sides, or find a way to forge a lasting peace between the two factions. Depending on what the weather's like, it would also be a good chance to expand on the survival system that Bethesda's been dabbling with the last few games.

    • New York. Assuming the city hasn't been reduced to a Glowing Sea, it would be an interesting change of pace going through tight alleyways, flooded subways, and across the rickety ruins of skyscrapers as opposed to the more wide-open areas that the last few games have had.

    What should I do?

    Posted: 13 Mar 2021 07:21 PM PST

    I am currently playing through fallout 3 again and have already done most of the main stuff but I am looking for any interesting ideas on places that are good to explore with decent combat. Almost dungeon like, for example something like the metros. It can be any place like a building or a big spot. I don't have any dlc except Anchorage so there's not much besides the capital wasteland for me.
