So question. I saw somewhere (probably TVtropes) something about that Bethesda patched it so that you no longer have to be present for every single "defend settlement x" thing.
Is this accurate?
And if not, is there a mod that makes it so that I don't have to babysit settlements? Cuz without fast travel its basically impossible to defend shit.

[Iceblaster]

Yes! Though if you really wanna be safe, you should have at least enough defense that equals your water and food put together, IIRC. There is a greater chance for stuff to be damaged if you don't show, it isn't a 'oh shit everything's ruined' thing now.

WOOTS

Also actually witnessed this when I got back to Sanctuary from getting far enough in the main quest for the Brotherhood to show up and thus give me something resembling fast travel with their explodiburbs. Nothing was destroyed. I was so happy. And then I got eaten by bears.

I gotta say that the Super Sledge you get from the Children of Atom on Far Harbor is possibly the most beautiful weapon I have ever had the honor of using in battle, and with enough drugs, I've OHKO'd Mirelurk Queens and Super Mutant Behemoths with it. Although Cito's Shiny Slugger (With a higher level rocket mod) is a CLOSE second in my quest for the ultimate Big Stick to carry.

the Radium Rifle is quite possibly one of my favourite weapons in Fallout 4 and DLCs, partly because visuals and partly because it's very effective against human opponents. they so rarely have rad protection on 

[Hanslanda]

Oh yeah, I basically kill any human instantly with the rad damage from the Wrath of the Primarch (I renamed the hammer) but the additional kinetic and energy damage, plus stun, doesn't hurt at all. Anyone that survives the first swing is immediately POWER ATTACKED FOR MAXIMUM DAMAGE. And I generally take so much drugs to boost damage. My character is so high in any given fight that the chemicals in his blood would kill a platoon of Marines.

'Thesda just released a "HD" texture DLC for F4, it is around 57-58 GIGABYTES, and is probably horrible.

Is it horrible because of the size or it looks horrible?

[SOLDIER First]

It's probably not going to look good, but that fucking filesize. That's almost three triple-A games' worth, for god's sake.

[forsaken1111]

So long as it looks nice I really don't mind the size. -shrug-

[Putnam]

It's probably not going to look good, but that fucking filesize. That's almost three triple-A games' worth, for god's sake.

Most triple-A games are that large specifically due to textures, so this is completely expected.

I'll let you know once the twelve hour download finishes, and I can stomach actually playing the game.

[Ultimuh]

I'm worried that it will drastically lower the performance on my own computer.

[Putnam]

If you're not running at at least 120 FPS, definitely don't pick it up. It's a super hi resolution texture pack.

Beauty is only skin deep; ugly goes to the bone.

If I wanted shiny textures, I'd go download mods instead. Vanilla is still vanilla, even with more vanilla.
