I'll ask again because new thread
is the whole "f76 is good now" just bullshit? I see that posted on random leddit threads but it feels fake, like some random marketing bitch just chiming in

>>569113906
Oh it's a great experience, but a worthless MMO and completely unplayable due to the grind.
You can play it once and have a great time. It has the most polished gameplay in the series, an enormous map, it's fantastic.
There's no point in sticking around once you're done and for all the people saying "it's good now" are absolutely full of it. 76 is essentially the same game it was back in 2018, there is still no endgame, just more to do before you get there.

>>569113906
it's a bad rpg if that's what you're asking

Hail Unity.

>>569113906
It took a while for it to click with me. It's good but it's also flawed. I went into detail a bit more about it last thread, but it's like a middle-of-the-road experience between a good MMO and a good singleplayer game, it's an MMO-lite with survival shooter gameplay. I'd say it's not as good as 1-NV, because those games are genuinely stellar singleplayer experiences. But it's better than 4 in many regards, because I always felt like 4 would function better as a multiplayer game due to how dumbed down the quests are.
Essentially, the spin-off status is apt. It's a Fallout game, but also not really what most people want from one unless you're willing to temper your expectations and go in with an open mind.

Ew

Why is the Circle of Steel only ever mentioned in one game? Why doesn't the Bethesda Brotherhood have a Circle of Steel?

>>569118046
because they're a Van Buren thing and Bethesda didn't know about Van Buren and probably still don't know about Van Buren (at least no consciously).

>>569117968
real time vats is actually really good though, it's so needlessly slow in the other games

>>569118223
I tried FO76 on a free weekend once and it was horrible

damn, 76 has irradiated chocobos

how bad of an idea is trying to not fight and only using unarmed when i have to in new vegas if I havent played it before

>>569121576
It's doable but it's going to start off with a lot of cheese.
Unarmed is actually really good but it's a slow start
You're going to be really reliant on sneak and speech but the puzzle is how you're going to level those up quickly when you aren't getting XP from killing people all the time.
XP is the real bottleneck in this plan.

>>569117132
4 is a better narrative experience
the story of 76 is too fucked up from all the updates

>>569113906
its a decent singleplayer experience but a shitty MMO experience if you want better MMO get ESO. 76 engame is horrible they just have 1 raid while ESO has hundreds. and theyre not adding more anytime soon theyr more focused on retarded map expansions with one and done short stories if we skipped the "new vegas but in ohio" area expansion wed have 3 more raids by now.

>>569124408
Dude no one likes the raid either cause they made it the most time consuming thing in the world that has such a low chance of giving you what you want
It got so bad that they made the raid cache (that they had to promptly remove cause it was bugged and they never brought it back)
What they should do is focus on map expansions and do it launch-76 style. Give it a very light story told through holotapes and notes and ultimately just be a fun place to run around in and build camps. That's what people want, not taking a whole year to release one part of a questline where your character is just the Ohio raider's bitch.

>>569122637
>getting XP from killing people all the time.
>XP is the real bottleneck in this plan.
I suggest doing quests for exp

>>569124408
The 76 playerbase is too stupid for mechanically interesting raids. If it's not "shoot the guy with 1 million hp to death" it can't be done.

>>569128963
Phase 2 being
"Don't make a mistake turning a corner into an insta kill guy or you'll waste five minutes of your team's life"
and Phase 4
"Absolutely braindead easy but still takes forever and hope the enemies don't get stuck" aren't fun. I'll take "shoot the guy" any day

Whenever I had to run fuel I could feel my heart rate spike and my chest hurt a ton. I did not want Fallout 76 of all things to take me out.

>>569129940
they nerfed the mole miners.
Making them hit hard and a strong DoT, but it won't outright kill you.
>phase 4
People still have to be warned not to be dumb.

Does anyone just think like 76 "feels" bad? It's like I'm taking crazy pills, I have good Internet and a good PC but the game just has so much latency on every little action. Looting, shooting, moving in the world feels floaty.

>>569174561
For APA MK II, I just think Bethesda wasn't aware of it being in Fallout 2 at all. Most fans certainly aren't.
The X-series naming conventions for Enclave Power Armor is 200% a retcon.
Advanced Power Armor being derived from a pre-war Power Armor prototype isn't necessarily a retcon, but it diminishes part of the point of the Enclave being that they never stopped creating and producing new technologies after the war.
Fallout 3's Enclave Power armor being weaker than T-51b, and only as strong as T-45d doesn't make sense, given that both 2's APA and APA MKII are vastly superior to T-51b.

It's honestly a mess that's all completely at the fault of Bethesda.

I was waiting a long time for the Brotherhood Field Station to come back, it seemed appropriate for it to be now since all the Enclave stuff is returning too.

I bought this from someone's vendor for 17k caps. I saw it had a flame barrel and wanted to try it out. I like it, it's pretty good. Wish it had a stabilized stock though. Should I swap for prime receiver? I'm not sure what the capacitor does since it won't let me inspect i. And what legendary mods work good for it?

>>569201186
when I played 1 I wiped them all out. then I wondered why they were the same size in 2. some character or some terminal talks about how during my slaughter in fallout 1 one or more ran and hid somewhere till it was all over. which actually makes sense, because sometimes they would try to run off the map into the area you cant go without loading out of the area.

>>569216109
If you don't have the perks you're better off just going Mutants I'd say, but you really should be using the perks

Pretty much. You need to stack Onslaught perks to make it useable, that's the whole point of the mod.

>>569216424
Junkie's is good too if you've got the chems. Pop psycho/psychobuff, med-x, any kind of alcohol, daytripper and daddy-o and that's a 50% damage bonus + 15% damage from psycho or 25% damage from psychobuff.

This lighting change really annoys me.

What's the easiest buff to give to lead belly in 3/nv? I can easily change the 50% to 90% or even 100% and at that point it probably becomes an ok perk. NV keeps track of food eaten/water drunk so I can toss a buff in there evertime the number goes up. Not sure what kind of buff, but I can add one.

>>569220519
With Nuka Cola Dark you can get +6 strength and +6 endurance with Party Boy and Cola Nut. Stacked with Unyielding, that will give you +9 to strength and endurance, which can be quite cool if you don't want to be stuck at low health all the time. Granted for a flamer build you might not need strength though. If you're using melee weapons it can be fun.

>>569220931
There is an implant in OWB that removes all ingested radiation but that's mid to late game stuff, so I think having the perk at like up to 80% radiation reduction is okay? Maybe start at the 50% and then every 5 or so items consumed raise the reduction by 1% up to 80% resistance total? If that's possible to do, I have no idea about modding.
I know lead belly is a gameplay perk, not exactly realistic, but just as a thought - would it be sort of possible irl? Eating irradiated food would just make you sick and you'd throw up, but could you possibly build up a tolerance for it the more you (attempt to) eat? Especially when nearly everything in the world is slightly irradiated and you've been living in it. There are some babushkas living near or in the Chernobyl exclusion zone and I assume they grow their food and appear to be doing okay? At least a few years ago they were.

With Avellone's interview with beardfat, he made the remark that during New Vegas's development, he felt that New Vegas could serve as a setup for a retooled Van Buren.
I wonder how much they'd have to change to make that work, since NV already is a retooling of large portions of Van Buren, even down to several npcs like Arcade, Graham, Christine Royce and Alice McLafferty with Victor Presper being sort of split into Elijah and Ulysses.

>>569280820
It's a shame no one made a Fallout game with the top-down tactical gameplay of Tactics with the roleplaying of 1&2. I guess it's too late for that now. I would've still loved a Fallout game in the universe that Tactics established with the Midwestern Brotherhood. At least some acknowledgement of the game would be nice. People talk about how Bethesda barely mentions New Vegas or 1&2 when you still have NCR ranger armor in FO1st, references to classic architecture in the camp bundles, even the return of the FO2 APA (or should I say X-01?) in Fallout 4.
Tactics might as well not exist because Bethesda won't even reference it for a one-off 76 bundle.

its semi cannon. the way they do it is nothing is canon until a future game references a certain event, then that thing is canon. so far the newer games have referenced Chicago and brotherhood out there and airships, so those elements are canon. with the show going to Colorado and cheyene mountain complex, that will be another thing. they may take it farther if he's going east eventually going to wv, dc, Boston

They definitely would've taken some inspiration from Tactics because it was the last (real) Fallout game before Fallout 3. Like tell me this doesn't look recognizably like the Citadel? Even down to the design of the map frame in the background. And Fallout 3's main antagonist being an AI merged from the identities of several former US presidents is certainly not unlike the Calculator being powered by the organic brains of Vault 0's residents either, even if it could just be coincidental.

>>569240947
Basically wasteland 2

>>569297252
I think it's reasonable that they took inspiration from Tactics, but I think there's some humor to be found from them lifting stuff from Tactics, while also expressly not allowing it to be a canonical entry.
There's some hints that /parts/ of it /might/ be canon, but never really "Tactics is a canon game" and then you get hit with "btw we're basically remaking the Midwestern BoS. but planting them in DC".

Does anyone else think that Autumn and his Enclave sabotaging the purifier just before the ending of Fallout 3 was a little bit, should I say, evil? For all this time, we've been made to believe he's wholesome chungus who just wants to help everyone. Maybe this was just his way of showing that maybe the real pure water was the friends we made along the way..:

>>569304882
Autumn's characterization is a complete fucking mess and his stated goal of turning the water purifier on so the enclave can help the capital wasteland is contradicted by every single one of his actions over the course of the game.
it's frankly embarrassing writing.

Imagine if Autumn was actually benevolent the whole way through. How different the game would be.

>>569305475
Yeah, that was a real rug pull. For all this time, I supported Colonel Autumn. Through the thick and thin. He kidnapped me, kidnapped others, shot at me on sight, shot at others on sight, told my dad to give over his water purifier or get fucked, and killed one of the scientists. Those were all totally good things he did that were completely just and benevolent. And only now, in the last five minutes of the game, he destroys the purifier? Where did my lovely wholesome chungus go?

I'm playing on an alt and I needed to build a fusion core generator so I could power my plasma and fusion core rechargers so I could use power armor and gatling lasers/plasmas freely without scrounging around for cores. My main has tons of this shit stockpiled although most of it I don't really know how I got to begin with.

I actually did that my last NV playthrough.
Low charisma (3 iirc) which I really leaned into. No speech, almost no barter.
My karma took a huge hit after Hidden Valley and never recovered. Ended up even getting the evil dialogue from Ulysses and the ending narration.
It kind of helps that the character was sort a "shoot first, ask questions later" type, and obedient to House and anyone else who was generally giving me orders (got the 'good' ending with Dean as a strong example). Rarely asking questions of NPCs, rarely searching for non-violet solutions (at least if not prompted first like with Marcus asking me to not kill the mercenaries) and rarely did more social or diplomatic quests like the Freeside and North Vegas quests.
Went Energy Weapons and Explosives as my tag skills. Plasma Caster is pretty GOATed even if it's not technically the strongest EWep in New Vegas. It plays similarly to the Riot Shotgun in practice.

It was interesting. Had to play with sort of a simple 'one-track-mind' mentality. Kind of felt like I was RPing as Dog, but a lot 'smarter'.

>>569354069
As anon said, explosives just aren't good as a primary.

An alternative suggestion is to pick a 'theme' for your guns. Instead of just all gunpowder firearms (compared to laser/plasma) would be "cowboy" weapons (revolvers, bolt-action rifles, the cowboy repeater, shotguns). Keeps you away from the automatic weapons that can feel 'generic'.

>>569355427
I was actually thinking of doing that kind of run next time. Guns just pay off a lot quicker and can hold effectiveness for an entire run.

>>569357234
>can hold effectiveness for an entire run.
I mean explosives are effective for an entire run, but in a complimentary way.
Chuck a plasma grenade into a crowd and they all get killed or their limbs are all crippled. Send a missiles down range and those deathclaws are now forced to limp toward you while you pepper them with a gun.
Annabelle is a clean two-shot on an entire Legion hitsquad if you don't let them get in your face. High Velocity Missiles are the best missiles for this reason. New Vegas is a Sniper-centric game so take the sniper explosive launcher.

Once the Fallout 3 Remastered comes out, we will be spared this humiliation for at least one month. I wonder how they'll Wokeify this release. I feel like a black man being in charge of the slavers is an outdated notion of pre-2016's aracialism. In today's antiracism climate, race must be brought up every chance it can get, and they'll probably claim Bethesda were "whitewashing" slavery by not bring any attention to the racial aspects of US's slavery. Also, they'll probably remove some of the sex appeal.

>Daisy is killed by the Warrior and his team during the Rock Falls mission. It is said than all Raiders bodies, including Daisy's, were later recovered by the Brotherhood and displayed around the region in crucifixion, to discourage anybody to follow their path.
For being enemies of the Legion, they sure like to ape their behavior.

>>569422294
I think there's room for nuance here. Raiders are bad people by default: their livelihood consists of jacking people's shit through (or by threat of) violence. Malicious actors have to be treated maliciously.

>>569427545
you're right. that's the only language they understand. that's what they do to enemies. they impale people on spikes to send a message, and this particular camp had a room where people came to watch prisoners get tortured for entertainment.
doing something just as brutal may be the only thing that would deter them in the future. anything less wouldn't bother them that much

Anyone know where I can get the latest version of Become a Bounty Hunter for free?

>>569422294
>>569427545
Reminds me of Ashur's motives in The Pitts. Something about Paladins experiencing the outside world beyond the sanitized lens of the Brotherhood has a tendency to inspire revolutionary, radical behaviors. Especially in the face of complete ruin, desolation and abundance of human suffering.

Is Bethesda going to ruin another rerelease of an old game by doing a remaster rather than a remake again? The Oblivion remastered is dead and forgotten so why bother buying a fallout 3/NV remaster?

Because TES has shitty gameplay. Fallout is simply about shooting shit, and it's hard to fuck up shooting.

Fallout 3 is good and I'm tired of wannabe faggots shitting on it.

Does it have a shit story? YES! In fact the story is absolutely fucking abysmal. But no one ever mentions the ways in which it's abysmal, like James being a Gary Stu, Martin Septim-like figure who the player has to constantly shadow. Everyone constantly harps on about the Brotherhood when Tactics did similar shit.

Should it have been set 150 years earlier? Probably, but there's a lot of shit that makes no sense like that in Fallout, like how in 1 and NV, close to no progress was made until midway through the following century (2161 and 2138 respectively).

Is NV/1/2/Tactics still better? Absolutely. But the game is far and away better than 4 and 76 occupies a weird spot where the niche it fills makes it a bad point of comparison.

It deserves the criticism but mongoloids with dreadful media literacy love to criticize it for the most retarded things that are explained in the game and/or references. It does a major disservice to anyone when the only ones criticizing the game are chimps who can't understand basic game concepts like abstraction especially in a fricking RPG which are game so reliant on player imagination, where no game has successfully managed to depict the scope of the game world.

Fallout 4 is the only Fallout game where every companion is gay.

Does anyone know what happened to Hit's sound project? Awesome is eh, and JRSR is too artificial. I want something that has both indoor and outdoor sounds.

>>569498779
>this engine is held together by duct tape and cum
Hey if fucking unreal engine 5 can handle it

>>569499521
I would argue the companions in Fallout 4 are playersexual, not outright gay or bisexual. I personally dislike playersexuality, as it negatively affects characters' autonomy. It would be like, for example, telling Preston Garvey, after committing a murder: "Stop being a bitch, man." and him being like: "Yeah, fool deserved it, anyway." It strips away what the character oughta be.

>>569500041
Oh it handles it, just not very well, and that's in the same game made by the company who devs for the engine. Meanwhile games by this company frequently have game-breaking crashes associated with companion characters breaking cell generation, so I won't anticipate much.

Today i learned when the devs said they had patched skipping to the snake via glitches many seasons ago, that they lied.
Fucking shit rewards, but i'm in it for the xp anyway since the guardian is now a chore and the drill fuel was 'fixed' in a most retarded manner.

It's actually realism cuz only bisexuals do anything interesting in life

>>569500758
>I would argue the companions in Fallout 4 are playersexual, not outright gay or bisexual
That's an oxymoron.
If the player is the same gender, they're gay for the player, which makes them gay.
Dragon Age 2 did it, so Fallout 4 had to do it too. Yet another instance of Bethesda copying BioWare.

>>569502071
Realism isn't always good. Real life is often anticlimactic, boring, and sometimes too strange to be good entertainment.
>>569502264
Playersexual is when the character is sexually attracted to the player character regardless of any quality. Like, for example, imagine if the player character was a dog. A playersexual character would still find the player character sexually attractive regardless if they're a different species.

>>569503241
>Like, for example, imagine if the player character was a dog. A playersexual character would still find the player character sexually attractive regardless if they're a different species
Which makes them zoophiles.
If you could play as a dog in FO4, every companion would not only be gay, but also a zoophile.

>>569503732
Yeah, but I'm trying to describe the concept of playersexual. The companions would theoretically be pedophiles, too, due to the concept of playersexual. The reason I said, "not outright gay or bisexual," is because a lot of these companions don't come across as being written as gay.

>>569504301
>The reason I said, "not outright gay or bisexual," is because a lot of these companions don't come across as being written as gay.
Every male companion except arguably X6 in the game is gay-coded and X6 is the only one without a romance tree.
>Preston's high-pitched buck boy voice and subservient demeanor
>Danse's bara Buzz Lightyear persona
>MacCready being a skinny twink

>>569504784
I think that's a matter of prescription and not description. Your gayness is making you think these characters are gay because of your personal attraction to men.

>>569505334
>Your gayness is making you think these characters are gay because of your personal attraction to me
But they are gay, because they can have gay sex with the player?

>>569505592
The gay sex is incidental to playersexuality. So it's actually player sex. That's like saying the player character has hands, so the companions are hands-sexual. It's merely incidental.

>>569505940
>The gay sex is incidental to playersexuality

It's not Iguana on a Stick, it's Iguana Bits. Both have been in every Fallout game but only one was the human meat, we know this because all of the icons for the former contained an actual Iguana (or lizard-like creature), while the other was, well, indiscernible bits.
And as far as we know, while Iguana Bits have been kept as an easter egg/callback to FO1, every game after has real Iguana Bits because Iguana Bob/Doc Morbid are no longer around. We know from FO2 that Bob's Iguana Bits in the Hub stayed around after being taken over by his son, which AFAIK could imply that the secret ingredient is still being used, although I very much doubt that by 2281 (NV), Iquana Bits are still made of human meat, and on the East Coast even more so since it's on the other side of the country.

Does NV have a mod to replicate fo4s ballistic weave yet?

I just don't really like the repair system right now

He's cute. But unfortunately for him, I already have a Junkyard robodog that brings me scrap items. I have no need for 1-3 star legendaries.

Do you really, really like Fallout 4's combat? Would you like to play that as an endless grind ARPG, just for the sake of it? That's what that game is, more or less. It also has an awesome map.

Bloodied/Unyielding is weird to get used to.

is there place to get verified creation paid mods? there was port of F76 for F4 and CC stuff so surely there must be there creations as well
also is anything from verified creations worth it?
