so, it turns out with the right special, even the shittiest of gun can become a real killer. plasma, baybe!

Trust me on one thing, take off the stock and use a sharpshooter pistol stock. It makes it so that you can just run up to pretty much anything and start pulling the trigger till they are dead, with no aiming necessary.

Ai Ming? thats some chinese gal?
will try the other stock tho

eidt:
tried it, i prefer the recoil compensating stock. slightly less accurate when jumping around, but more steady when fireing and  overall more accurate, too.

Wouldn't it be better with a short barrel though ? for hip-fire accuracy ? That's what I'm using on most of my rifles (except sniper rifle of course). Also reflex sights seem to be the best of non-scoped sights.

Oh and I was wondering, is it just me who can't stand that reporter chick ? She has a weird smile and I don't really care about her reporter nonsense.

[Flying Dice]

No. Piper can die in a fire.

I was more than a little amused by the fact that she's perfectly willing to abandon her little sister entirely to sit in a random mudhole farm settlement doing nothing.

yeah, maybe short barrel. have to check. its a short range spray and pray thingy anyhow.
i too use reflex sights on most of my guns (even on my single shot combat rifles, dont need a scope to snipe usually, and if, i also have a real sniper).
anyway, pipe gun reflex sight sucks ass, so i just go with the normal sights with work just as well.

[Cyroth]

Yeah, I don't really like Piper either.
Her sense of humor is funny, but I really don't like anything else about her.

Usually running around with Curie, free Stimpacks, free heal if I'm in a pinch and because Science.

Also having a french chick run around in minigun wielding power armor is hilarious.

Nick is great if you're playing a sarcastic character because the snark is strong with him. Having the Sole Survivor and Nick snarking at each other is incredibly funny.

I can't stand the rest of the companions.
Dogmeat would be cool, but it always looks like he is blocking me on purpose.

ka, tested it.
na, short barel is crap, same reason as pistol grip:
the hipfire accuracy for the first shot is better, but with i dont realy care bout that. i have enough accuracy from steady aim and comando anyhow, plus the gun itself is fairly accurate.
what i care about is recoil tho, and with short barrel and pistol grip, recoil will harm accuracy in autofire much more, and also pushes the gun up much more.
so, no matter what the module descriptions say, on autofire long barel + recoil compensating stock are still more accurate even in hipfire.

Good to know, I'll experiment with that too then.

i think i figured out the real, hidden story of fo4

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

you are patient one supermutant that still looks human (not fully mutated) and doesnt know about his supermutantness.
yet, the whole supermutant must follow the masters order tingy fully applies, yet the actor is not aware of this (kind of like in that bioshok game, where the player thought he had his own agenda but in reality, he just would kindly).
so, the supermutant orders fully apply, and the ony quest that matters indeed never shows up in the quest log.
kill, loot, repeat.
thats all.

[Putnam]

there is no master for east coast super mutants, they're not very well thought-out

besides, afaik harold was sorta the first super mutant

EDIT: just realized they basically killed him off in FO3

how dare they

[SOLDIER First]

Would you want to live a depressing existence as a tree with devotees who don't listen to you for the rest of eternity?

[motorbitch]

wasnt harold a ghoul living in the app near vault city?
anyway. IF you are right, how do YOU explain the lone wanderers compulsion to follow the supermutant orders?

[Mattk50]

snip, misread. Have a screenshot anyway

I've noticed how hard I neglected armor up until now.
I was waiting for good legendary drops..so now a lot of people wear heavy armor while I was wearing metal and combat.

I didnt notice "Sturdy" and "Heavy" where actual variants for a long time. I thought they were mods.
So I just bought a set of Heavy Combat armor and modded it full.
I was extremely squishy before. Derp. Didn't notice too much because when enemies started getting too strong, I had already started going with PA everywhere..

It's really cool that they put the "Ultra-light" mod for armor. I hate going out to adventure with 50-100 available weight capacity.

[miauw62]

i wonder if there will be mods to replace dogmeat with ein.

[Neonivek]

Was Fallout 4 rushed?

I mean... the more I see the more spotty the game is. Enemies trying to run through walls, allies getting stuck CONSTANTLY (And they can't aim for beans), easily repeatable game ending glitches, and just the whole settlement system.

It feels like this is just a far along Beta. I mean it could be worse (It could be Rome Total War's Alpha-esk release)

[Gabeux]

With 100 hours in the game, I think they may have cut corners, yes.
It's much, much better than Fallout 3 or Skyrim on release, though. Fallout 3 my game would crash every 10 minutes or so..sometimes even crashing during saving. Not that this is any excuse.

FO3 was the cause I started pressing F5 every minute and making backup saves every time I finish something major.
