thomas Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I picked this up the other day but I'm beginning to think I should have went for Just Cause 3 instead. Early impressions are it's a great game. I don't think I have the time to get stuck right into it though, these days I jump on a game for 30 minutes or so at a time which I don't think suits this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right, TBH. This is going to sound sarcastic, but give Plants vs Zombies a go. I had a great Christmas with that a few years ago 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't get much done in that kind of time, but as you can save anywhere you can dip in and out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Sad to read that Sarah Lyons kicked the bucket after Fallout 3. Did anyone else think that Elder Maxson was going to turn out to be the Lone Wanderer? I didn't remember him from Fallout 3 at all. Shame Three-Dog doesn't make an appearance, especially considering that his voice actor was the guy who hinted that a new game was coming years ago. (none of those are massive plot spoilers, BTW ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(none of those are massive plot spoilers, BTW ) I actually thought he might be the wanderer as well. When they were rhyming off all his achievements at a stupidly young age. Doesn't quite tie up but it would have been some scenes if he was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Having a real hard time of it atm. On some mission to find a dead recon team and in my find an energy turbine which I have a scout in. As soon as I leave it, two big scorpion b*****ds jump out the ground and I'm dead in seconds. This has happened about half a dozen times now. It gets worse. That mission is a right b*****d to do at low levels, as you then have to clear the training yard of ghouls, and then clear the revere array of super mutants, including one suicider and one rocket laumcher equipped one. Best thing to do might be to level up a bit before continuing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren1872 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Just a tip for anyone new. Iv grinded out to level 75 by doing the brotherhood missions in Cambridge police stations. There are two types one is clear XYZ area and the other is retrieve a certain item from a certain location. This is great for XP and most involve a legendary creature so you can pick up some bhuna gear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I have no idea what I'm doing in this game. Spent a while exploring a small town picking up everything I can. Put an upgrade on a gun and decided to cook everything I could at a fire. I'm really not sure what to do now, do I set up some sort of home base to store things or just go wondering? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Having a nightmare. Got myself trapped in some cannery or something where the only way out is to fight your way through the sewers. Which are filled with ghouls with a couple of glowing ones. Ive nowhere near enough supplies to make it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Assaultrons haunt my dreams They get easier. Not until about Level 50, right enough. They're practically instant death up to that point. The sheer terror when the sky turns red and you've no idea where it's coming from There's an abandoned farm that's been taken over by Super Mutants with some military vehicles nearby, guarded by an Assaultron and a Mr Gutsy - it's cracking entertainment to anger the robots, run like stink through the farm, then retire to a nearby vantage point to watch the chaos unfold. The Assaultron usually takes out the lot of them, despite some pretty high-level Muties being amongst the dozen or so that bide there Anyone else throw the switch at the top of the tower at Lynn woods?... Yes! I stumbled on the place accidentally and had no idea what it would do! Absolute carnage! I absolutely recommend stealthing it up to the top of the tower for maximum fun when you get there. I have no idea what I'm doing in this game. Spent a while exploring a small town picking up everything I can. Put an upgrade on a gun and decided to cook everything I could at a fire. I'm really not sure what to do now, do I set up some sort of home base to store things or just go wondering? Don't put too much effort into setting up a single home base, as there are dozens of settlements throughout the Commonwealth, although building stuff and cooking is a good way to gain XP and make life easier for yourself. Go for a wander and you'll find lots of people to talk to, quests to perform, and beasties to be killed by. The good thing is that you can play the game however you want, so you can storm about like a standard shooter, or lurk about in the rubble finding stuff to sell/turn into building materials (which is my terrible shame). Just joined the BOS, pissing myself laughing at the sexual relations question I think Alfred Kinsey claimed that around 14% of Americans had 'enjoyed' a sexual experience with a non-human animal, and that was by their own admission Assuming there's some truth to that, I've no doubt that a higher percentage of people would give, say, ghouls a try. If you think about it, I'm sure we all know someone who, in the event of a zombie apocalypse, would probably keep one tied up in their basement to use in ways that should never be contemplated, never mind seen by human eyes. What would be P&B's non-human of choice for a romantic evening of noodles and harrowing sexual acts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As BFT Dave said, you can really play how you want. Go round scrapping stuff in your settlement and build new things. Just generally wander around, or start on a mission Started to venture further afield, my worry is leaving something usefull behind. Think I'll concentrate on weapons/ammo and food/health. Im a bit like that. I generally take one weapon for a few different ammo types. If you can, something decent for whatever you have the most ammo of (although thats usually 10mm and most of the weapons are rubbish) and try and take something for long range and something for close combat. Either store or sell the rest Remember, companions can carry things too. I usually give them anything I might need but dont use very often, like a missile launcher 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
