/fog/ - Fallout General

Piper.

So finally got to playing this mess.
After solving a literally 2 seconds of mouse delay issue, been walking around and generally having a good time.
But then I noticed that only about one in 12 clicks actually works for attacking.
That can't be normal, and I can find no mention of it online, it's definitely not the mouse either.
Anyone even know where to start with this?

I modded so you can wear armor pieces over any armor.

Now I never wear anything but the General's outfit and sturdy combat armor, it actually doesn't clip too much and the chest piece seems to overlap perfectly with the regular armor so I can't even see it, just looks like there's armor braces over the arms.

>Melee
>Doesn't matter if I've got 300 strength, 300 endurance and 2 ton power armor on, if a raider bunches me with his bare hands it staggers me and interrupts my swing

Welp, at least I can eat his body when it's over.

So how fucked up is Fallout 4 in terms of needing mods and user patches to be playable?

From what I've experienced in the past, vanilla Bethesda games tend to be really fucked up.

In terms of on-release Beth studios games it's the most stable one they've put out since Morrowind. Fallout 3 and New Vegas were buggy, crash happy disasters and Skyrim was a fucking mess that actually broke with each new patch they put out (remember the backwards dragons?)

But I hope you don't like melee.

The fuck was the deal with Dunwich Borers

I read every terminal but I don't get why there was a sunken shrine filled with ghouls that were clearly the management -- why is it implied that they were intentionally digging there the whole time? What did they hope to find? What connection does Khrev's Tooth have with the Krevhbekni or however the fuck it was spelled in Point Lookout? WHY do these Dunwich-related artifacts all seem to cause ghoulification without fail? Just what the fuck IS the deal with this cult and what slice of Cthulhu mythos is it referencing?/spoiler]

Also as much as I love the weapon I hate its visual design. I can't be alone in this.

At rank one it increases hit % in VATS. At Rank 2 it has a chance % to cripple the limb, and at rank III it has a chance % to cause bleeding.

I want a mod that does the following:

-1x damage both ways
-.25 normal loot amount
-Hunger/Thirst/Sleep with hard penalties (AKA -25%, -50%, -75% to stats based on condition rather than just -1 or -2 because of how the new system works. If you have 10 STR, being hungry would be 7.5 STR, famished 5 STR, starving 2.5 STR. Hunger would apply to strength and agility. Thirst would apply to endurance and charisma. Sleep would apply to intelligence and perception.
-Strips magic from guns & restores ammo types and ammo crafting
-Stimpak overdose
-Legendary enemies now give aura bonuses to allied NPCs, and legendary loot is no longer magic. Instead you have a chance to find an uncommon piece of loot leveled above you, or more resources such as ammo, caps, and chems.
-Institute weapons explode if you try to loot them, or explode upon the death of the synth using them ala X-COM. Also, they're more powerful weapons. You can obtain one of your own at some point, or you can sink into robotics and disable a synth to be able to take the gun from it.

Answer pl0x.

In the last thread someone mentioned a mod that increases the damage of pipe weapons a little for those people who want to use them later on in the game.

I've been looking on the websites I know of but can't seem to find any mods that do this.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

>>123405201
My personal theory is that there is some kind of maybe magic maybe mundane thing going on with a Lovecraftian deity whose influence is felt through radiation.

The Cult of Atom got their religion mixed up in this, that's why they're all fanatical murderous cultists now rather than wacky harmless wierdoes.

It's also why the swampfolk of Point Lookout were so damn powerful, some kind of psuedo supernatural mutation going on here.

There's some kind of enormous highly radioactive metal statue buried in solid rock at the very bottom of that mine, probably some kind of Lovecraftian idol.

Also Mirelurk Queens are now essentially minor Eldritch Abominations and the Kings are full on Deep Ones with their eggs placed in shrines by human cultists.

As for the sword, personally I never use it, it's evil.

Well, I did use it once when I tried to murder Marcy Long in a fit of rage, but her insufferable bitch aura was too powerful even for that dread blade and it proved useless.

Definitely should've been more minor factions. I mean New Vegas only had 4 major groups as well, but they were 4 major groups independent of 'your' faction (Yes Man/Minutemen). But while NV had the Followers, Kings, Powder Gangers, Khans, Boomers, etc., FO4 has really nothing substantial in the way of other groups. There's the Gunners but they only seem to be of any non-combat relevance in holotapes and terminals. There's the Atom Cats but they only matter for one quest. There's the folks at Vault 81 but they ultimately don't matter much, and even Diamond City, when you do eventually get them allied with your faction post-MQ it's not even mentioned by anyone important.

Even the generic raiders in New Vegas, the Fiends, had some backstory and non-aggressive parts, like in Vault 3. The Vipers and Jackals were pretty bad by comparison but at least they had a reason to be there.

It's just like, where are the other groups?

I gave Grognak's a go but it definitely seemed weaker than Kremvh's Tooth. I started up as a sneaky pistol build but since I found the X01 and actually started using power armour for the first time since Concord, I've been enjoying sprinting into crowds of enemies using Kremvh's Tooth and lopping limbs off left right and centre. I'm hoping to find a decent sort of legendary machete so I can reattach the sacrificial blade to that and get legendary bonuses on top of the double-enchantment.

>>123406150
Europe and the Middle East were completely fucked even before the nukes and implied to already be lawless hellholes, just not irradiated lawless hellholes yet.

China is an unknown quantity, there were troops on the ground during the nuclear war. Wouldn't it be a twist to have power armored american ghouls still terrorizing the post-nuclear Chinese townsolk?

>>123406298
It's mostly because the 1950s retro-future thing would really only be the case in ruined America.

It's a really big part of the feel of the setting and if you went to someplace else then it wouldn't feel like that anymore, because that flavor was pretty unique to America.

That said I'd like to hear something about the rest of the world, and there's no reason why we couldn't wander a bit, considering that nobody would care about the borders of countries that stopped existing 200 years ago.

Well DC is surely fucked now, if only Maxson hadn't blown his load bringing everyone over to Massachusetts.

Speaking of, where did the Brotherhood get all the T-60 suits they're using in 4? Obviously it's an invention of Bethesda, but is there any explanation given in-game as to why no one is wearing t-45 or t-51 anymore? Did they find another sort of Operation Anchorage-esque bunker with thousands of them in storage?

Max out chemist ASAP, use automatic weapons, get scrounger to fuel your automatic weapon rampages, get strength purely for the hip-fire accuracy.

It's sad that Beth didn't really incorporate anything good about NV into FO4.

Honestly I think they're just in a different business and they have different demographics. NV was clearly gunning for the more hardcore western RPG fans by giving choices and dialogue so much more weight even for non speech/low charisma characters. FO3 and FO4 are just trying to strike a nice medium between the casual crowd and fans of the series, and I think it does a pretty alright job of it. If I wanted another NV, I'll wait for Obsidian to get their hands on it.

Hard to believe considering they didn't do that with t-51 suits and t-60 just didn't exist prior to 4's writing.

It's not fixable or anything but I still think calling this 't-60' a t-48 or something would've been a better move. The general look and design of it is obviously iterating on the t-45 rather than the t-51 and now makes the Western Brotherhood look ill-equipped by comparison because the East has better power armor than they do at this point.

Strange to suggest that t-51 was used in Anchorage, annexed Canada, at Mariposa, and basically everywhere, but for some reason in Sanctuary they use t-60. You could say it was a division of use between military and crowd control purposes, but why the fuck would the crowd control power armor be more powerful than the military-use one?

What you said about the T-60 suddenly being more advanced and now really common is why I hate it.

Oh I like using it in the game but I despise its existence in the fluff, it should have been T-48 like you said.

At worst it seems like some kind of cynical attempt to replace the iconic face of the franchise with their iconic visual design of power armor, as the helmets are almost identical.

Though personally my headcanon to explain it is the same as why the US Army seems to have had five different service rifles and three different combat armor designs.

Every single contractor was working full bore to feed the war effort, hence lots of different designs.

T-60 was a redesign of the T-45 using everything they'd learned from the T-51 because they didn't want to lose out on all the suits and spare parts they had for the older models and wanted something with part commonality that was on par with their super suit.

Still would prefer it to have lower stats than the T-51 though.

>destroying the real best hope for humanity

No other group is wiping out mutie and feral strongholds. No other group is keeping dangerous technology out of the hands of people who use it carelessly. No other group realizes that unchecked science is responsible for many of the abominations the wasteland faces, and therefor must be watched over. No other group is willing to do what's necessary for the good of humanity, even if it seems morally wrong. No other group has stayed dedicated to their mission for so long. People like the Institute, vault-tec, and Mr. House, who practiced science without ethics, are the ones who sold the world. They are the only salvation this tortured planet and its people have. Without them, humanity is sure to perish.

>why the fuck would the crowd control power armor be more powerful than the military-use one?

Because it's not? It is military power armor being used FOR crowd control. It was made not long before the bombs dropped, but it is not specifically crowd control armor.

The same reason some police SWAT gear is more effective personal armor than comparable stuff that gets handed out to the military (This USED to be true anyway, not so much anymore).

It's entirely possible they suffered some design flaw that made them more ideal for policing use than extended military campaigns.

In the case of SWAT gear in the 90's, it was less ideal having a bunch of guys running around the desert with a bunch of heavy body armor that they could likely get blown up in anyway assuming the enemy set up some IED.

>>123407746
Minutemen are the worst faction by far through virtue of making you their errand boy

the fact that, even when you have all the settlements, they still require help with the smallest of tasks, only reinforces the idea that they're not actually doing any good, just riding your coat tails.

Railroad doesn't try to save Synths who are out to kill them.

You mow down whole swathes of older models and the worst that happens is that some members don't personally help you destroy them.

They don't get angry when you kill a hostile human form synth, they bask in awe at your might.

The park's too clever for that. It DOES give you easily accessible weapons like a firework gun or captain's cosmos' blaster to deal with the enemies. But you don't want to use what the park gives you, that's one of the gameplay elements. It tries to tempt you into using all that nice shiny stuff to beat the mod, with the two robots aggressively trying to sell you that stuff, but every time you use anything the park gives you, your soul belongs to it just a little bit more. This can heavily affect the ending and your reward.

From what I understand in the lore T-45 was the power armor used before and during the Great War with China, T-51 was developed during the end of the Great War and used first at Anchorage, T-60 was developed after the great war and before the bombs fell.
BoS using only T-60 can be blamed on Todd

Probably found a weapons or military machinerry manufacturing plant that had the means to produce the suits. Springfield is most likely still an armory and arms manufacturer in the Fallout universe so that's an ideal location to churn out guns and armor.

>>123408103
Small settlements are more of a scale issue than anything and new vegas only got away with that because you're in the mojave desert. Even the strip and freeside were empty.

That would be an understandable retcon, but it should've at least been on a terminal somewhere. It's been 10 years since FO3 took place and I'd be curious to know how they found it.

>>123407773
There's a lot of ways you could have justified it, it's just a shame none of it is explained in the game itself. Even a throwaway line from Ingram about how "we used to use the t-51 suit, our Western counterparts still do, but we came across a cache of suits in New Jersey supposedly used for occupation operations". God knows they had plenty of these types of lines regarding the airship and Lyons and the Enclave, so it wouldn't have hurt to have one about the armor as well.

>>123407961
I appreciate that's the new history but it's not consistent with even Bethesda's world of Fallout.

X-01's got the turtleshell armour that makes it look incredibly double massive.

It exists because Bethesda willed it, and wanted a more unique PA design that wasn't associated with just being the crapsack armor of the series (like T-45d).

It's the same reason you have combat armor like riot gear in New Vegas -- it's high quality combat armor that clearly wasn't available in the same way as combat armor seen in Fallout 1, 2, or even 3. It exists simply because they wanted a stronger, cooler looking suit to show off in the game.

It sure worked for the rangers, anyway.

I can't fault Bethesda too hard for just adding some armor out of the blue, either, for that same reason. Not only was Obsidian content to create its own version of superior "homefront use" combat armor, you saw something similar in Fallout 2 anyway when they started adding things like "Mk. 2 Combat armor", "Mk. 2 Metal armor", or the Tesla Metal armor.

>>123406898
Mostly just the satisfaction of seeing a proper set of trade routes stretching across the game map.

Also because it's easier to get in touch and reequip your Provisioners if they walk shorter routes between nearby settlements.

And there is a maximum range they can travel, some settlements too far away will be greyed out.

>>123407389
For your consideration:
Power armors function like gun models, with advancements being numbered but still adhering to their type, IE an AK-74 doesn't necessarily mean it's a more advanced gun than a M4 just because the number is higher.

The T-60 is the latest version of the T-45 series, whatever its internal designation may be, and the T-51 is from a different series, meaning a T-88 or what have you, if they had ever gotten that far, would have resembled whatever R/D department of West Tek it sprung from. This makes a lot more sense, and makes the only folly in the lack of designation.

Example: The Bethesda model is the 'd' series, while Interplay's model is the 'b' series

>>123407354
You're talking about a world where all of the infrastructure has been rendered more or less inert, its survivors are in time-release capsules, and the rest of the world has rapidly evolved and become incredibly dangerous in the mean-time.

The fact that something like the BoS could exist in this scenario is already something of a miracle, which kind of explains why they're basically a cult.

Also no, there is really no good way to build decent walls. The junk fences don't fit together at all, and the terrain is too fucking uneven for anything anyway because no matter where you place shit half the thing is floating in the air. They really don't want you to make walls.

I like Danse myself but come on. The purpose of the Institute's synths is to literally infiltrate groups and organisations then bring them down from within. There is nothing wrong with them turning their back on him, it's awful but there's no telling what he could have been feeding back to the Institute about the Brotherhood's movements, secrets and plans.

Oh I like it, I just personally find it a little iffy that it's only a redesigned copy of their older iconic armor and suddenly upstages the longtime classic.

And somehow the T-51 is still called the pinnacle of prewar power armor in loading screens and lore, even though now the T-60 is measurably better in every way.
