All this junk weighs so much......and holy shit ghouls are fucking scary now...

Got jumped by a pack of them at a trainyard when I went to go solve a Raider problem.  They really fucked me up and cost me quite a few shotgun shells.

Also anyone come across a place called Thicket Excavations yet? It's....well, its nothing but a mass of blocky pixels, if I reload the game and it's gone, then all solved....but if it isn't I'll get some screens of it. Its a shame :/


Is that the huge excavation site right next to Concord?  If so, it's showing up fine for me.
I'm on PC, ultra settings (which is kind of a bummer), you?

Also, armless ghouls are reminding me of the Halo days....

PS4.  Surprisingly I haven't encountered any bugs or crashes yet.

what an absolute disgrace of a game

this isn't a fallout title

this is fucking minecraft with guns in skyrim

the looting is shit, it's for casual babies it doesn't even tell you the weight level of items unless you look at them in the pipboy

gunplay is trash

vats is broken

no hardcore mode

fps problems

my left leg stopped working again

the plastic to get into the game was kinda tricky to open

modding weapons JUST WORKS

there is no skill involved whatsoever

the AI is flat out retarded and did not pull off a 10/10 co-ordinated flanking maneurvre in which three raiders scaled the roof behind me and leant over the edge to shoot down at me in cover simultaneously

no mods

HATE NEWSPAPERS

HATE FALLOUT 4

brb i'm going to jump under the nearest bus with my two pipboys, one on each arm for the most autistic suicide ever conceived

Really though, it's still early days and all but I've come out of it very satisfied.

The banter over the AI being as shit as usual I'd actually happily argue that point, I've played mostly on survival because I wanted a challenge and I sure as fucking hell got one. I did turn it down to normal though for one dungeon/factory crawl - christ almighty it was insane but it was locking my progress out >_>

What I saw from the AI on survival was something that could pass for bad player in PVP as opposed to the usual utterly predictable banzai charging idiocy.

Outflanking using angles that as I said above, genuinely caught me off guard as opposed to just sneaking around the other side of the rock to spoopyme. Coordination among enemies too, the synchronised attack they pulled off was quite impressive to see.

They seemed notably dumber on normal though, so I'd hazard a guess at them dialling down the intelligence the closer you get to easy/very easy mode. Not a fan of the bullet sponge factor for survival, but it's not overly punishing and I'm mostly happy for the tradeoff to go up against smart enemies.

The settlements stuff is a bit clunky, I'd have liked to see more polish on the magnetism/some clipping for objects but it's useable.

FPS issues once or twice, long scope = unusable but nothing overly game ruining.

Good job bethesda, you lived up to my expectations e.e

This game REALLY picks up during Act 2.

The characters are pretty interesting, too.

That's good to know, the pace has been very hmm measured for the early game.

Which is good, I didn't want to be thrown bolts first into a warzone but it's quite laid back for a fallout game. A bit of go here, loot this, kill some of those, find something shiny.

Nonspoiler answer if you can, do you get to choose between factions or is it... railroaded? >_>

Like BOS/Institute divide and the minutemen on the sidelines or is it more convoluted than that <.<

For the ending you mean? Because I've joined both the BoS and Minuteman as of now.
