Bethesda never doing tribals in fallout is the best idea they have had. Holy smokes.

What, you mean having the only non-white party member in the first two games be a guy who has a magical bone through his nose is problematic (I bet I am forgetting someone else and I bet that someone else has their own issues though)

About half way through a LP full story of fallout 2 and I have some thoughts. Beyond the main story being good, fallout 1 is a glitchy unfinished mess. That includes the main story being unfinished! Fallout 2 so far feels like the CRPG equivalent of a bethesda fallout game. You loot everything. Everything is a fetch quest. Your companions are glitchy. Cut content everywhere including content thatvis needed to make sense of various bits in the game. The number of times the fallout Bible has to be reference. Maybe it is everybody's rose colored glasses, but I can firmly say Fallout 3, NV, and 4 are all worthy successors of fallout 1 and 2 with Fallout 76 being the most accurate sequel in terms of story, scale, and glitchiness.

Just to be clear, you're basing all this on Oxhorn videos? ("the number of times the fallout Bible has to be reference" ???)

Do you not loot everything, have glitchy companions and do fetch quests in Fallout 1? 2 is just an expanded 1 with worse bugs like the phantom car trunk and a whole lot more goofy poo poo like Hubologists and Modoc.

Yes to both of you. The fallout bible thing is just funny. Having to reference outside material to get the whole story. Reminds me of Halo and Sergent Johnson being alive. What I am saying is the bethesda Fallouts are proper Fallouts. Mr Hootington fucked around with this message at 13:47 on Jun 25, 2020 |

Bethesda put up the preview of the Fallout 76 seasons system today. It will be in patch 20 on June 30th. The lunchboxes have arrived. I do like some of the skins and CAMP items. https://fallout.bethesda.net/en/seasons?utm_medium=facebook&utm_content=Bethesda%20Game%20Studios&utm_source=Community&sf124495064=1

I'm guessing there's no way of getting specific prefixes on a weapon outside of player vendors?

I'm still waiting for the game to eventually break down enough that they re-release it as a Single Player experience with every asset ever developed for it included in the base game (so I expect to get back into the game in 2030).

So during the game period you score points to increase rank or you spend 150 Atoms for each level? But some of the rewards for each level are...150 Atoms? So you can just spend 150 Atoms and get 150 Atoms?

Well I'll be damned, you can completely eliminate fall damage. I didn't think you could stack individual bonuses, ha. Hurling myself from very high things is now a pastime. Sod fast travel.

I barely use PA, if ever. Loved it in 4 but here in 76 it just doesn't gel with my bow/stealth build. I could focus on ballistic weapons instead and benefit from the increased protection, but chances are if I'm taking damage I have screwed up immensely and will be dying soon regardless.

I never used PA in 4 mostly because the camera shake is nausea inducing, but also because of simple poo poo like using crafting benches and terminals in front of chairs. In 76 I only carry it around for stuff like nuke zones or tougher public events.

My character kinda sucks at level 23 and I'm out of almost all my ammo, and when I do have ammo my guns hardly seem to do any damage and I'm really tempted to just go with a new character. Should I just reroll? Here's my current SPECIAL stats  What should I be pumping?

Should I just reroll? What guns do you enjoy? You should start focusing on the type of guns you like to use. 4 more intelligence and 5 more luck has you covered for crafting and mutations when you hit 50. If you are going with a gun build make sure to grab gunsmith with the next 4 intelligence. Sometimes you should just put a point in a category for later and grab a card from a different category.

I like shotguns, but with the ammo problem I've been having with seemingly the whole time leveling, I haven't really had a favorite gun. Pretty much just looking for an excuse to start over with a good build. Searching on youtube, most of the build guides are around a year old, are those still valid if I decide to restart? I'm thinking melee may be best because then I would never have to worry about ammo.

The big thing with guns is you may primary shotguns, but you should carry another backup gun that is for trash mobs. You wipe out the best gun for high level and special monsters.

Should I just reroll? I will look over this and then update notes in case you are peeking when I'm thinking. The season starts in 2 days, rank 5 gives you an ammo machine at your camp that lets you convert any ammo in to any ammo. So that would help with your ammo problem. The first problem I see is that you have not picked a single weapon damage perk card. You only need one rank for it because the first rank gives 10% dmg. (later on sure lvl up the dmg cards to rank 3 for a total of 20% dmg, but you can do that later) So grab a bunch and try out everything. You are also at the start of the game where guns and melee just don't do enough dmg. Oh poo poo you do have gladiator, so you do have one weapon perk card. Next up is to make sure your using guns that are capped for their level, like some guns only upgrade every 5 or 10 levels. Shotguns start at lvl 15 and you don't get another until lvl 25 which your coming up on which should help some. Also at lvl 25 you can start using power armor which will help you stay alive by quite a bit. Also in fo76 power armor can be used without fusion cores but you can't sprint or use vats. You really are so early in the game that you can be fine on this character and you already have a foothold with a spread of cards. I'd say if you don't want to start over you wouldn't really need too. I'm just gonna drop this in here in case theres more questions about building a character because this post was long and I think it has some useful information. Tenzarin posted:Don't take more than one level of a damage perk. You can get those to lvl 3 later but level 1 is the best value. Strength has damage perks for melee, shotgun, heavy guns. Perception has damage perks for rifles, autorifles, and bows. Agility has damage cards for pistols, please don't use pistols unless you really want too.

I assume 76's end game is the dailies and reputation grind? I adore simply exploring, but I feel a little directionless without a main story kicking me up the bum.

Should I just reroll? Stick to the low level area and go around meleeing everything until you have enough resources to go back on your own. Also maybe get some shotgunner perks if your going shotguns. Edit: also to piggyback off the earlier post I completely agree DONT GO PISTOLS!!! I tried to make a full auto pistols build with max agility and luck and it made me so frustrated I almost scrapped the character. I ended up switching all my auto pistol cards for commando cards and now my character is a non-stop, VATS aimbot, killing machine!

It was solo, something I realised was a mistake almost immediately. I don't find the Queen fight overly interesting anyway, so not a big loss.
