ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted October 24, 2017 I just wish I could skip the whole story of 4, the whole opening Vault bit especially. It's as bad as Skyrim and Helgen at this point, you've done it so many times you have to psyche yourself up to get through it, get outside and then you're free to explore the world. Then you shout "fuck you Shaun, i'm off to build a battle arena" into the gentle breeze and head for somewhere far far away from Concord and Preston "i've just got word of another settlement that needs our (our as in your, not my) help" Garvey. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted October 24, 2017 lol because i needed a faction to help me apparently build the transport machine, i made the mistake of asking the minutemen to help... they were right there where i wanted to build the damn thing anyways... between the time i reached out until contruction was completed, i accumulated 5 settlement missions ... now that i'm done with that transport shit, i'm never going to sanctuary ever again... except to hook up my mama up with some chems of course ... thankfully my dr. mobius supply bunker in sanctuary is a fast travel location ... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted October 25, 2017 My go to settlement locations always end up being either Starlight drive in or Egret Tours - mainly for it's lovely views of the glowing crater to the southwest. My last character was my second Nuka World raider, she ended up with the Operators... I never actually finished playing as her, I just quit playing Fallout for some reason. The thing that always bugged me was the settlement system where attacks were tied to how many resources you made and the defense of the place, I always heavily fortified my bases which meant you never really got attacked, making the defenses pointless. To counter that you had to produce masses of water to make the number higher than your defense, but you still never really got attacked, and when you did it always happened when you were over the other side of the map balls deep in a super mutant stronghold. I think in the end I started using the traps to force the Gunners to attack me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gtagrl 4317 Report post Posted October 26, 2017 My generalist Wanderer has finally gotten that last bobblehead, I only have about a dozen magazines left to collect but am getting pretty bored with it...I think I'm ready to start a brand new file. This one will be a male character who will be all in with the Institute, and maybe turn the difficulty up a notch. Fuck all the other factions. And especially fuck Preston Garvey, can't wait to walk around without having to run to some farm's rescue again in spite of making it into a fortress. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted December 12, 2017 I'm curious, has anyone actually ever delivered Drinkin' Buddy to the Hotel Rexford? I never have, it just means you've got the quest stuck in your list for ever more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shabbagaz 444 Report post Posted December 13, 2017 I've gone a bit mental again and built another "monstrosity"! I've built (well almost finished) building an 'entertainment complex' at Starlight Drive-in. Have to say out of all my builds, this is my favourite so if anyone like my previous builds, you'll like this one! Spent a crazy amount of time on it, so much so I've levelled up 36 times just from building. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ViceMan 1380 Report post Posted December 13, 2017 I think in every one of my playthroughs my settlements have been built out of wooden structures and junk fences, so this time for Nordhagen Beach I endeavoured to use something else - concrete. I still ended up using the junk fences mixed with tyres and the spiked barricades from Far Harbour. The USO mod adds so much shit to use, you can places faction NPCs, different merchants, animals, it's pretty nice. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was very pleased to see a lot more had been added since I started playing/building again. A brilliant mod and it's helped me to create something rather special! 8 minutes ago, CaPn bOnEs said: whats the USO mod? on PS4? https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/25140/? this is the one i use, "dr. mobius's infinite stash" adds every item in the game, and with the push of a button, resets the container... i like the sound of the ability to place NPCs and stuff at settlements, animals and stuff... ------ share some pics of your new settlement, gaz, when you get the time ...

Yes it's on PS4. I think I have a mod that just sets the build limit to always be empty. If we're talking mods there's a weather redux one I like that adds some nice atmospheric radiation storms too. The sky goes a deep rusty red, quite eerie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shabbagaz 444 Report post Posted December 24, 2017 Finally got the bugger finished, well did as much as I could as I pushed it to it's limit again (glitching!). Anyway, here's the pics of my new build 'Starlightworld' - I wanted to make reference to where it was built and I couldn't think of anything else to call it. It's a 'multi-purpose' entertainment venue with 3 cinema screens, a main auditorium for gigs, concerts, plays etc, a comedy club, an arcade/games area, pool room, computer room, a gym, 2 cafes, a restaurant/bar, a nightclub and a roof top terrace/bar. Lower floor cafe (also has an upstairs seating area) Some of the toilet facilities Restaurant/bar Kitchen One of the lobbies Help desk Main auditorium from the ground floor Main auditorium from the third floor Main auditorium looking from the stage One of the bars in one of the lobbies Cinema screens and seating areas Main auditorium control box Projection room Staff living quarters Computer room - including cubicles for the dirty-minded!! Upper level cafe Gaming & arcade room Pool room Gym Some of the gym changing facilities (dogs normally not allowed! ) Comedy club Night club Rooftop terrace & bar I was going to say this would be my final build.... but I said that last time! Now onto other things. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah there is one called 'Cheat Container' which gives you 60k of each building material: https://bethesda.net/en/mods/fallout4/mod-detail/3058296 No way I would've been able to do all that without it.

Never had (including now on Hardcore Mode) an un-finished quest stuck in list. Have found all the recipes though. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just went through a nostalgic play through of FO3 and all its DLC's followed by New Vegas. I forgot how good Vegas was, this time as a dude, and carefully not pissing any faction off yet. Haven't started the DLC's yet, except the GRA which is a default kind of available weapons and mods. Stopped today though, got to take Survival mode Nora back to Diamond City to be there on Christmas. Hey it's a 2-day journey stopping at a safe house to sleep over night, then get there in the morning to see the decorations. Merry Fallout Christmas everyone. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
