Fallout Shelter is out for Android

Super Irish · August 13, 2015, 10:40:12 AM

There ya go.

I've only been playing for half an hour and so far I've already had a powercut, two radroach infestations,a fire and irradiated the entire residents. I'd be a great Overseer.

Spoiler

Sure, it's a phone game - not exactly a "game" but feck it, it's going here.

Tyger · August 13, 2015, 10:41:31 AM

I loved that game. Got max dwellers and then immediately uninstalled it

Mr. Psychologist · August 13, 2015, 10:51:53 AM

If only I had a phone that could run it ;-;

awesome.

Is it actually worthwile?

The one and only game for phones that I legimately enjoyed was Crossy road - and that's just frogger with 3D graphics and a tilted view.

its fun but gets old quick. at a certain point all you do is send people to the wasteland for supplies while you click on your resources and sometimes make/let in new dwellers

Oh, I love Eugenics Simulator 2015.

Saleem · August 14, 2015, 04:33:26 PM

Been dicking around with it since yesterday. It's a phone game, clicky clicky and all that jazz.

Turkey · August 14, 2015, 04:47:28 PM

Pretty fun. Kind of slow, though. I kind of wish it was more roguelike where you'd be replaying it numerous times instead of investing your time in a single decent vault.

Anyone have tips for getting caps without buying lunchboxes?

Always have someone out in the wasteland. It's not quite as dangerous as it may seem as long as they dont have a rusty .32 and a regular jumpsuit

Yeah, my guy died because I didn't pay attention to it at work and now I'm waiting to get 200 more caps, which is taking a very long time. It's been pretty stagnant around 15 dwellers. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong; everyone's happy, I have plenty of resources, but caps are so slow I can basically only make a single room per day.

Comet · August 14, 2015, 05:01:31 PM

i can only play for 5mins at a time, after that it doesnt respond.
patch, when?

its kinda supposed to be that way since its a freemium game. things will speed up as you expand. be really deliberate about your radaway production with regard to your population btw. rad poisoning can really fuck the vault up fast

Give one worker a weapon for each resource room (food, water, power), and keep rushing them. That way even if you fail it you're prepared for an incident.

Also, do the special objective thingies. Some can be crap, but doing them allows them to be replaced by the ones that pay 200 caps.

Shit, I've been rushing rooms non-stop for 10 minutes and I'm making tons of money.

Maybe if I get really bored one day.

I had an issue where I impregnated every woman in my vault and when they all finally gave birth my vault collapsed because I couldn't support the expanded population.

Like it was posted above, be very deliberate about each and every one of your steps. Make sure you have enough resources for everything, and make your layout capable. All your rooms in one place, labs in the other, etc.

Do NOT upgrade until you get a room with 3 width either (the max you can combine rooms), otherwise you can't expand it.

Methodical is the only way to create a sustainable vault, Verb. This is no laughing matter, a few dozen virtual characters could virtually die after a few hours of improper handling. Virtually.

i'm glad you're having fun with it lol

Pro tip

Don't bother building storage rooms for a very long time. It's a drain on power that you could do without. I had 200 dwellers and max vault size with only 1 single storage room. Just equip your dwellers with whatever you have and sell BB guns.

Sell any gun that does 1-2 damage too honestly. It's a waste.

So I might try and dig up my shitposting email and plug that into it instead.
