Fallout 4 (PS4, XB1, PC)

In the middle of a radiation storm... thought this was a pretty awesome picture.

Nice. Only been through one so far.

Finally did lose a life in the game, though most of my time has spend tearing down everything in Sanctuary. One Feral Ghoul, no problem. Three Feral Ghouls, challenging but a shotgun will do the trick. Twenty Feral Ghouls and only armed with a Police Baton. Kinda fucked. Never had that many enemies chase me in Fallout. Not to mention they are pretty quick.

One slight agitation is Dogmeat. The things Raiders say and do to that poor dog every fight. Can you make him (stay command) in Sanctuary and he will not travel with you?

Game sounds interesting but I have the slightest clue what the series is really about having not ever playing the game before

I'm getting used to the shooting mechanic with moving and aiming the more I play.

Haven't dug into it yet, but do you know if we can create and modify scopes for the guns?

Why does the game slow down for some kills shots where you get to pick where you are shooting while for others it does not? Also, what do the numbers mean? The higher the number the more the strength of that area?

I'm in the same boat. At the end of the day I prefer action RPGs over true RPGs. I liked dragon age inquisition but really preferred Mordor over it easily. I might give this or witcher 3 a try but I think I would prefer assassins creed.

Room in that boat for me? I am stuck between Assassins Creed and Fallout 4. AC is what I know and I know I would enjoy it. Fallout 4 is way out of my comfort zone but I find it very intriguing. That being said, I am not a gun play typer of player and I know I would struggle with it. I would much rather be in 3rd person like CLW says.

That is when you use the VATS system. Not everyone like running and gunning and this system makes the gunplay/melee more RPG'ish. The higher the number the better chance of hitting that spot. It is particularly useful in taking out enemies shooting arms and making critical shots on tougher enemies, as once the crit level is high enough you can choose to use one.

You have what is called AP (Action Points) which is shown on the screen. This affects how long you can sprint/heavy melee, and how often you can use of VATS. There are certain perks you can unlock that will allow the AP to regenerate faster for more VATS usage. There are also special perks when using VATS, if you check out the skill tree.

I watched some of the 3rd person camera and like it a lot more. Great that you can choose between the two.

I never seed you on the PS4 anymore but if you do see me play, I will gladly share play it for you.

Yeah still recovering from surgery so I am not on the PS4 too much because it's in the living room and we have these deep couches that are really difficult to get out of once you sit down. However, I will look for you in the next couple of days/week.

So it's October 31, 2287 and the Diamond City guard says "it's Halloween and you think I'd get a treat, no just tricks" awesome!

The video



I was wondering what was up. I was in some town, not Diamond City and there were Halloween decorations all around. Checked and apparently there are Christmas decorations once you near that date. Really nice touch, love the little things in games like this.

Another interesting small thing, ran into a travelling vendor as I was going towards the junkyard (word to the wise, stay away unless you have your power suit and firepower, the Super Mutants are a bitch there) and the salesman said he doesn't have any inventory, but head to a specific vault and meet up with him there.

That sounds like something Ram would say.
