**** Official Fallout 4 Thread ****


You know what Fallout 4 needs? Looking and working like a proper 2016 game rather than one from 2009. What a lazy devs and they've had what, 5-6 years at least. And less of the building things, if I wanted that I'd bought the Sims lol. I'll finish the mission DLCs since I paid for them and then uninstall this disgrace of a bug ridden game. :D

each to their own..I love it and am addicted to base building
 
Will that be free for us season pass holders ?
Yep its included in the Season Pass. If I paid £39.99 for my season pass I would be really upset with the DLC produced (only paid £19.99 for mine before the price raise). Nuka World is hopefully another Far Harbour quality DLC otherwise all the DLC is junk. Most of its just Bethesda putting an interface on the game engine used to build the game in the beginning :eek:
 
I had problem with CTD quite heavily when running SLI, but none when I ran single card. Obviously YMMV but I wouldn't recommend a multi card setup for playing.
 
I've not modded Fallout 4 and have never seen a modding thread on here. I have one quick question: are CTDs a thing on this engine?

I've had a few on a couple of patches, but not the most recent one. However, there are two very relevant factors. Firstly, I wasn't using the most recent graphics drivers at the time. Secondly, I have 38 mods installed including both Disable Minuteman Radiant Quests mods, which have been discontinued because they change some things about the minuteman faction behind the scenes in a way the author later (after the creation kit was released and gave them more information) realised shouldn't really be done.

The engine has many limitations but it is robust.

I'm pretty much the opposite - I have little interest in the missions and am playing mainly for the building. I only finished the main story (after ~150 hours of play) because I felt like it was in the way. I've done Automatron, which I found more interesting, and I haven't started Far Harbour yet because I've been wrapped up in building a market town at County Crossing with 24 luxury flats, a gym, a shopping centre, an inn, a lounge, showers and a pool hall with seating for 50 people to watch in comfort. I'm trying to make different settlements different with some sort of feature. Sanctuary has a huge library, scriptorium and museum. County Crossing is the place for pool tournaments. That sort of thing. Of course none of it any effect because the game isn't programmed for it. Settlers can't read or write books or play pool or arrange tournaments. I'm roleplaying for the fun of it. I can spend hours just wiring a settlement so my settlers can play Grognak and the Ruby Ruins in their own flats. Or could, if they were programmed to do so :)

I haven't had this much fun with a building game since I was a little kid with Lego.
 
Finding it hard to get excited about all this workshop dlc tbh. Hardly worthy of the season pass.

Not with mods, no. Although I have been using the concrete from Wasteland Workshop a lot (with modded textures to make it look impure rather than decrepit, since it's supposed to be concrete you've just made rather than 200 year old concrete you've scavenged).

Building your own vault seems incongruous to me, too. It's too advanced for the context of the game. It's anachronistic in the gameworld. One person cobbling together a new country from disparate settlements with some advancement, yes. One person restoring society and technology and infrastucture to the point of being able to build a new vault? Seems like too much. It could be made to fit, I suppose, by saying that you scavenged the necessary information from the Institute when you copied data from their network but it would be so world-changing that it would rule out Fallout 5 as a similar game unless Bethesda declare the whole building thing to be non-canonical. They will make Fallout 5, obviously, since they've made a vast amount of money from Fallout 4 and the market is still there.

^You were asking earlier about weights- there is a set up at the Atom Cats garage involving a normal wooden bench and it looks like the yellow lighting rigs which looks alright. Also plenty of weights lying around too.

Also do you use Northland Digger's mod? If not, I would highly recommend it. Think it would be right up your street!
