I still annoyed 15 years later that there’s no unique Riot Shotgun. I like to be decked out in all the bespoke super items so I feel special. It’s disheartening to be firing the Shadow of the Lord of the Apocalypse and then have to switch to standard gun to deal with a charging deathclaw. Not even Gun Runners Arsenal added one!

Game is amazing I've finished Lonesome Road and can now give my opinion that overall the DLC is mid. Makes sense given how great the base game is itself.

Doing Lonesome Road on Hardcore is funny, because you find a crate full of MRE’s right off the bat and they are like, the greatest food item in the history of the Mojave apparently.

Lonesome road is actually really handy to raid early. You can raid the silo without fighting anything for some decent profit, and while killing the robots in the silo and the first area's marked men is hard, it's definitely doable. If you do that you can make a ton of money and get some really good gear right off the bat.

Pantaloon Pontiff posted:Lonesome road is actually really handy to raid early. Yeah, as it's the only DLC you can leave at any time it's good for that. Just go a bit in, collect some good loot and then come back later. Fallout 4's DLC you could leave at any time, but as far as I can remember you couldn't in any of Fallout 3's. Maybe point lockout? I can't remember if you can get a boat ride back whenever, I think maybe you can if you pay the boat fee?

Also, just to be sure: even in TYOOL 2024, there is no way to input "nonstandard" ASCII characters into names in New Vegas? You can't have player character names with acutes or whatever?

dr_rat posted:Maybe point lockout? I can't remember if you can get a boat ride back whenever, I think maybe you can if you pay the boat fee? Something like 300-400 caps a time, which can be prohibitive at times so you're likely to just stay in Point Lookout until you've done the main quest and then it becomes free to come to and go. The Pitt you're locked in until you complete the main quest, Mothership Zeta and Operation Anchorage, too. Just grabbing all the most valuable junk/weapons you can get your mitts on, and shoving it - plus the nail gun, arc-wielder and other stuff you can find nearby - into the Commissary Terminal to get the Riot Gear is a decent strategy for some great 'early game' armour.

Man, that fallout 4 person could have really used that nail gun with all the settlement building stuff they do. Would've saved them so much time to not look for the son with. Edit: Thinking about it, it does seem a bit odd that so much of fallout 3 and NV DLC was DLC that locked you in it, when both of the main games usually gave you plenty of opportunities to just walk away from quests and what not when ever you please other than at a few points. New Vegas I can only really think of when you're exploring vaults, and the end with hover dam. dr_rat fucked around with this message at 14:08 on May 13, 2024 |

Suddenly got a bit of an itch to revisit NV and possibly 4 - for each of those does anyone have a good baseline mod list for as good a mostly stock experience as can be had? I can go pretty hog wild with the graphics stuff. edit: bleh, I guess I need to buy a bunch of F4 DLC before I can install the unoffical patch? Bummer. Guess that will wait for a sale.

A recent creation club adds them as a weapon, unfortunately CC is dogshit at introducing new weapon types, (it seems they just don't show up at vendors until you complete a quest) putting new ammo types into loot lists and tweaking the weapons so they fit in nicely with what you already have available to you - most of the time there's something vanilla available to you at your level that's straight up better.

I can go pretty hog wild with the graphics stuff. Google Viva new Vegas for nv and midnight ride for fo4, they are curated lists of stable recommended mods for each. Both are largely fix lists not content so sounds like exactly what you are looking for.

It's Dragonborn's Fate for Skyrim that seemingly got the chop recently, due to a recent update to Skyrim, A 12 Year Old Game, breaking every backbone mod known to man. (I suspect the recent HD patch also caused issues for Midnight Ride, so read carefully.) New Vegas not getting updates after 2012 or so ironically probably helped it a lot.

Yeah the guide is currently updated for the update (which at this point means a downgrader and some of the older version of mods being used) I suspect this will be resolved soon whenever sCRIPT EXTENDER gets updated, but if you lock down what mods you want up front and don’t plan to muck around further it’ll be fine. On the one hand not having this update as a separate special edition like Skyrim means you can’t just go to the non-SE version, but then not forking maybe makes getting things updated more of a priority for the fan developers.

Overcharge/Max charge should do well against them, it’s their armor that makes them such bullet sponges.

Unless you're doing a gimmick thing just use the Sonic Emitter. I remember the Opera Singer instantly exploding scorpions with a high luck build.

The tri-beam with all the GRA upgrades is stupid powerful. Next I went through Lonesome Road, accidentally made Ulysses mad by clicking through dialogue too fast, and then vapourized him before he could even get off his little stage.

It honestly fit considering what the baseline Fallout 3 animations are like. What I always found jarring was the animations for Geckos, Mantises, and Cazadors, not in that they're animated badly, but in the fact their animations are mark improvement compared how other animals/wild-life are animated. You can tell someone put a lot love and work into those.

Maybe I'm just blind but I feel like the running animation for the player and NPCs looks better in 3 while in New Vegas everyone sort of has this "loping" gait.

All animations in the Bethesda engine look really weird to me. They did eventually clean up the faces a bit, so long as you don't customize yourself into a monster. Replaying Fallout 4 for the first time. It's a weird contrast to New Vegas because it feels just so full of stuff and so empty at the same time. Missions and things to explore come at you at an uncomfortable rate but none of it feels like it really matters unless you grab a bobblehead or a magazine.

From my understanding, that because Fallout 3 has 8 direction the legs would move based on the direction the player was moving, New Vegas still has those animation, but they're locked to 4 direction only for some reason.
