Fallout 4

[redlobster]

Just started playing it on PS4, just got to the minuteman mission. So much exploring to do and so little carrying capacity!

Yes, I'm on xbox one.  Haven't had any problems.  Have you read that it's glitchy?  Guess I got it about a week after it was released.  So there probably were some patches already.

several game reviews have said that the xbox one drops frames but that was prior to the Windows 10 update  so looks like I will give it a shot

Great game so far, my only issue is the sometimes lazy level design.

I've noticed a couple drops every once in a while, but nothing drastic.  Definitely not a deal breaker.

Yup, Found the power armor as well. I have been trying to play late at night after my girls go to bed but I spent over an hour yesterday building stuff in sanctuary. lol

Got it at a local game store.  At the time, it was a Microsoft deal, the price was the same at all retailers.  Not sure if that changed or not....

Battlefront looks pretty awesome.  Fallout is definitely worth getting.

Battlefront is awesome. Feels like you're part of the original movies when playing walker assault. Esp. on hoth

So there is no point building defensive walls in a base because raiders and gunners spawn inside.

Man i have 48 hours of actual play time in this game and i dont know if ive even discovered half the map!

[ALPHA]

50 hours in and I am officially burnt out, also my girlfriend is mad as hell

Burned out after only 50 hours?  Light weight!    lol

I'm more than twice that, only getting started....

[codizzle]

I've never played fallout.. Having a hard time getting the feel for it

I've played every one of them, so it's second nature for me.  A little background.....

It's set in a world where we never moved on from the 50's culture.  But, technology did "move on" as there are laser and plasma weapons.  Also, a lot of robots running around.  In Oct 2077, there's a nuclear war.  The games are all set about 200 years after that.  They involve "Vault dwellers".  A company called Vault Tec set up bomb shelters called vaults before the war happened.  The games are more about exploring than doing the main quests.  It's a very interesting world Bethesda has created.  I really like the universe they made, so I really like the games.  Hopefully you'll really get into also.

Lol, I'm sure my wife isnt happy. I play after the kids go to bed, usually 9pm -1030 ish, the problem is, you get into a 1 quest or start exploring and that time flies by. 

 

I just decided to do the Castle mission with the Minutemen, even though I probably could have done it a long time ago.

Hey lobster, that's what fallout games are all about......exploration.  Just running around and finding random "happenings" are some of the best moments in these games.  Most of the time they're better than the quests.    lol

I got Fallout 3 and I didn't really understand it, so I just returned it, but I've never liked open world games. However, all the reviews on this one are making me want to play...

Yeah I remember fallout 3 and I played New Vegas. This is worth every penny just by the amount of time and development they did on the game and landscapes etc

[BmoreBird22]

Modding the weapons was a great addition.  Also, I don't miss having to repair weapons and armor.

I have not modded a single weapon, it seems like the weapons I have are already modded and when i try to do things to them, there are no advances.

A lot of the weapons you find will have some mods on them.  You need to level up "gun nut" for ballistic weapons and "science" for energy weapons to see the better mods.  Some weapons might require both perks.
