Trying to be myself and help people in need.

 

My evil character:

Psycho, killer, cannibal, raider. Not much to say.

Kay guys, time to show your characters, post screenshots.

 

It's actually not as buggy/gimmicky as you might think. I'd say it works pretty much just as well as the horses in Skyrim do, although I think you could sprint while riding them and you can only walk and run with this one. The downsides are that it takes a really long time to dismount if you suddenly run into a group of enemies (imagine hopping out of your power armor every time you're ready to battle) and the camera is zoomed out extremely far. That's the closest you can zoom in on that screenshot. If he finds a way to fix it and get the camera closer, it'll be my go-to fast travel alternative.

I've always wondered why no one in the fallout universe rides Brahmin, why there's no horses and wagons

[ULPaperContact]

Have you ever seen a brahmin? They're slow and unwieldy. I'm sure someone could do it, but they're better at pulling waggons/ holding cargo.

[chronic lumbago]

You don't see people riding cows either, at least not a lot

Horses are canonically extinct in the Fallout universe, but I agree that we're long overdue for some kind of mount. It would have been extremely easy for Bethesda to give us some kind of mutated mount using the scripts and animations from Skyrim. Personally I'd say Radstags would have made sense, but hell, they could have retconned that bit about horses being extinct if they really wanted to. It wouldn't be the first retcon in Fallout 4, and it would be nowhere near as offensive as pre-war Jet or ghouls not requiring sustenance.

 

Alternatively, one suggestion I saw in the comments for that mod was, what if the Institute made synth horses? Boom, doesn't recon horses being extinct, makes it so that having a mount would be a mid game reward for your hard work, and explains why you are apparently the only person in the Commonwealth with access to one.

But then they'd have to think up a reason for making horses. Still have no clue why they made gorillas, except in a pitiful attempt to make the game look cooler.

Downloaded it as soon as I saw it. I love the RU556 as much as the next guy, but I really wanted a classic AR-15 instead, and now we finally have one. Also, as much as I love Hitman, I honestly think Hax's AR-15 animations are better than Hitman's set for WARS (which I think is what Deadpool originally planned on using).

 

 

First person:

 

 

 

To be completely honest, I'm not a huge fan of the sounds, but there are only a few weapon mods I've downloaded that I actually kept their original sounds for so that's par for the course with me.

My new gun on pc I do love the sound and the Lazer

Now that's a gun I will never ever download.

Backstory

Former United States Secretary of Health and Human services, Daryl Whiskey, was kept in the dark about the administration's Enclave actions. While on vacation in his home town of Boston, the bombs fall and well...we all know what happens from there. 200 years later, Daryl learns to adapt and survive, he now has his sights on The Minutemen who might just be able to give The Commonwealth a taste of the former United States glory.)

 

Character evolution:

 

[ULPaperContact]

I actually like the patriotic K-9 unit more than the character. But for the backstory, I think EvilViking13's castle mod would be pretty nice. Like a capitol building.

[luisniko]

Am I the only one here who wants wooden bow and crossbow more than laser gun?

[Fireman]

We have crossbows already and they're pretty awesome!

As for bows, sure I wouldn't mind it, but I'd prefer a good model that launches those propane tanks/fire extinguishers, someone did make a gun that shoots them and it's fantastic, but it requires a proper weapon and launch system, instead of just a pistol that shoots propane tanks.

I really don't see the point of bows/crossbows. Just not my thing, at appear pretty stupid to me. Except in real life, then they're pretty cool.

[chronic lumbago]

I "think" a crossbow blow could be quite damaging, in conparing to other guns. A headshot is a headshot, but a crossbow with high damage, scarce ammo and very effective crippling effects on enemies in a fallout game would be pretty damn awesome.

 

In fact, I've modded the Harpoon Gun with the "any mod any weapon" mod on PS4, make is look a tiny bit like a crossbow and renamed it to "Darryl's Babe". It doesn't really look like a crossbow and shoots huge f*cking harpoons but with a little imagination I can play as a crossbow shooter that way.

[Mokrie Dela]

I got to admit I didn't phrase that too well

 

I'm not aware of horses ever being mentioned tbh; I just never understood how no one had thought of either taming and riding any other creature, or even a wagon pulled by Brahmin or even dogs*. If I was a wanderer, id be trying to make a vehicle dmsome sort. I'd be happy to see it retconned tbh. Sometimes running for 12 hours across several miles just doesn't feel right and it'd be nice to travel quicker and carry more

 

Or at least as a fast travel option but that'd be redundant with the map travel option

 

*im awarde that new Vegas has a wagon in it, so maybe I'm just forgetting things!

[Tycek]

Vehicles of some sort were always present in Fallout games. In both 1 and 2 we could see Brahmin carts, usually converted from derelict vehicles scattered around. Super Mutant Army were mentioned to possess couple of steam powered trucks.

 

In Fallout 2 we of course got Chryslus Highwayman, which could be bought and used by main character. NCR army also had couple of vehicles (these were mentioned in the dialogue).

 

In Tactics we got full array of vehicles from Buggies belonging to raiders, to APCs and even Sherman tank used by the Brotherhood. Not to mention different flying vehicles depicted in the intro (planes, Zeppelin, etc.).

 

Van Buren were to feature at least couple of different vehicles (motorbike, car, truck, etc.) and cars were mentioned in New Vegas as well, were one of the Omertas were saying he bought his wife a car.

 

 

Also seeing the mechanics in various settlements (Smitty in Den - FO2, T-Ray in New Reno - FO2 and the one in NCR - FO2) who could tune up your car to be more efficient, we may assume that they learn the ropes somewhere and your vehicle wasn't exactly the first one they were fixing

Don't forget Fallout 4's vertibirds. They count.

[monkb4skunk]

Just got the red rockets glare quest done last night

 

sh*t it was cool going up to the brotherhood and putting them in the trash/recycling, my pc was most impressed with the new battlecoat rather than wiping out the brotherhood.

 

So I have 3 more trophies before I hit the Platinum,

-They're action figures (bobble heads)

-(the one for 50 misc objectives)

-Benevolent leader *shudder*

Then I'll start playing with mods.

 

I think I might just slaughter everything

Had to scratch my Ellie TLOU character because the play as child mod was removed. Made a character named Clementine instead 2 days ago, a survival run while ignoring the main quest line. She's just a survivor that's really good with tinkering on weapons (wacky weapons mod) and will be dragged into Nuka World and Far Harbor later on somehow. Has a trusty Eyebot companion (simple followers mod) and I got some very interesting weather and atmosphere mods installed that make the game look really awesome and scary. No more colorful blue skies. The city is covered in a yellowish fog and godrays. Nighttime is dark and slightly red.

 

 

To any PS4 player, I can highly recommend the Modified Nuka World creatures mod which adds a handful of creatures into the CW. (Mod has 3 parts) No idea how he did it but so far I came across a huge swarm of tiny and deadly ands and VERY CREEPY spiders. They're huge, fast and deadly and gotta be the most creepy thing I saw in the game so far. Skyrim spiders seem friendly now lol

 

Having fun with this game again.

Someone should make like a psychedelic mod where you take glowing fungus and run around the comonwealth tripping balls, could add some pretty sweet stuff to that scenario.

I got the idea finding a hallucigen cannister to that drugged f*cker Fred. I was disappointed nothing cool happened breathing in all that gas. Lucky dead Raiders.

I had ignored that quest forever, until I stumbled upon the location the other day.

 

I was expecting to be tripping balls throughout the mission, but it never eventuated. Very disappoint.

Have an idea who the next protagonist should be.

 

We had the lone wanderer, courier and the sole survivor so I came up with a basic idea for the next protag. I think it would be really awesome, with endless RP possibilities, but more on thag later. So here it is:

 

The Prophet.

 

The main guy or gal lives his whole life in a vault, which managed to survive for over 200 years. Similar to Vault 101, but of course with it's own sick twists. Once the "tutorial" is complete, something happens, an incident in which every single inhabitant dies and you are he only one who manages to survive and leaves the vault.

 

As the vault opens and the sun flash begins to dim, something is different. This time around, you see the open wasteland in the background but you are surrounded by a bunch of villagers from the outside. As you step out, they suddenly begin to bow down and pray to you. You are being declared as The Prophet and realize some kind of religious cult was waiting for the Vault to open up. They believe the Vault is where all life once came from (or they believe Aliens landed the vaults on a destroyed planet.. the possibilities are endless here)

 

That's the basic idea. The player could decide much, much easier to ignore the main quest, maybe even by slaughtering the villagers or forcing them through a 100 speech check later on to sacrifice their lives and commit suicide to honor him. Player could just go on to do his thing and leave the main quest to rot without being reminded of his son all the time.

 

The main quest would progress by accepting his role or pretending to do so as some new threat emerges and so forth. It's just the basic idea.

 

Maybe The Prophet is not the right name, not aiming to offend any religious believes or anything. Bethesda would probably choose a different name.

Paused for a selfie on my way to meet Brandis when the Brotherhood's world famous piloting made it into an epic selfie.
