Fun fact: The houses in Sanctuary and a few construction sites in the Commonwealth appear to be modeled on the Lustron brand houses produced by the Lustron Corporation of Chicago. Nearly 2500 such houses were constructed between 1947 and 1950.A group of them in relatively good repair still stand along the 5000 block of Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis, MN.

Thank you! Yeah I actually have a patreon! There's a couple of people already backing me a bit, and honestly those couple bucks really do help. I actually work for a nerd t shirt company, and I'm bummed I didn't get to make more fo4 shirts, since our deadline was right when the game came out

Okay so the way you do it is this purchase on the app store (there is a free version but it sucks imo) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.natewren.piptecgreen And you need a new Android launcher (I use the paid version of the ADW launcher) After that you can simply follow the instruction on the terminal green app. (It's not difficult tbh)

Once that's done you must access your launcher and add widgets, it should be an option on nearly every launcher.

The entire setup takes about 30 minutes to an hour (or it did for me just messing around.)

A few notes, it is not great if you do not have interest in messing with things on your phone. It took me about 3 days to get a setup where the stats list worked properly and didn't reset. The clocks do not work properly, sometimes they will stop ticking over to the next minute, this is fixed by ignoring it, fixes on it's own after a bit.

A lot of people think it's going to be a Fallout 3 remaster. Could be... but it could also be something else.

I glanced through the code on https://fallout.bethesda.net/ , which is the official Fallout site listed on the Fallout twitter, and I found one interesting thing.

Most of the site is just a forced error and placeholders for eventual product information. Pictures, videos, info etc.

But there is a script called, "/institute.js". Could be just what they call that file now, but they know that people are going to look at this stuff, so it could be a hint.

A synth was in Fallout 3, but The Institute wasn't. This could be a hint at further Institute involvement in the world of Fallout in the next game.

It could be nothing, but it could also be something.

I have not tried it myself, but I know it's possible. There's a funny story about a guy doing it and something going completely wrong. You should give it a read

what OSK app do you use? [autohotkey](/r/autohotkey) is the way imo, here is an on-screen keyboard that does not take focus from the target app for input. you can also assign macros to do even more things automatically

I know there's an android app.

It pretty much loads the website (more or less, yo still have all the functionality of filtering which you want to see etc). I'm sure there's an iOS one available too.

I doubt it. The game was well into production at that point, and the scene would most likely already have been written.

The Kotaku script leak had part of that scene in it.

http://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=26729

Average playtime for main story + extras are about 71h. Completing the game takes about 154h. Most people are probably somewhere in between those two. 100 hours gives 60 cents / hour. Is that expensive? Quit you god damn whining. If you really loathe the experience so much, send an email to Bethesda.

Complaining here will do nothing for you. You could spend that energy creating content for mods that patch whatever you think is fucked up. Do something useful. Me and thousands of others will be in-game enjoying a more than good game while you sour-puss.

I got mine off Amazon. Since they’re so cheap, I got one for my desk at work too. Love’em.

From Kotaku

"The next big game from Fallout developer Bethesda Game Studios is Fallout: 76, the company announced today, and although the studio hasn’t yet said what it is, we hear it’s an online game of some sort."

"Online game" sounds a lot like online only, then again they don't seem to know exactly what it is. We'll have to wait and see I guess.

One thing to help against the misleading YouTube videos is to use YouTube Center. The Developer Version works best for me, but it allows the ability to see the ratings before you actually click on a video. Has saved me numerous times from clicking on "bad" videos.

If you want to take it to the extreme, there's Video Blocker which will let you block entire channels from showing up in search results. That one helps for channels of streamers you dislike/can't stand, or from channels that consistently put out bad/misleading videos.

I saw Adam Savage do wonders with some brown paint diluted in water, brushed on, then wiped off with a dry(ish) cloth. It settles in the nooks and crannies and really makes something look used. Plus a little Rub n Buff to make it look like the paint has rubbed off metal, like on the edges and commonly held parts of your gun.

Can someone please link the app download for Droid? I'm having some serious problems trying to find it on Google.

EDIT: I found it!

no, its all speculation mostly from Kotaku

and I am definitely not enthused. Ark, DayZ, Rust...the genre has been beat to death and is basically a niche genre catering to a small percentage of gamers, if that is all it is. But hopefully if they have a good single player option with modding and some decent quests...yeah it will be ok...if the price is right.

We won't know more until E3 and June 10th

Uhm...

Cool, now build one for 220 bucks. That one can even come with Fallout 4. You can get a refurbished one for less than 200.

I always wonder what y'all have to gain from trying to convert people from consoles to shitty low end gaming PCs. Just let dude game on whatever makes him happy.

I feel that settlements could be a whole new niche of players to attract, if done properly.

Bethesda would be wise to invest some resources in making it as good as possible (and flexible enough to work well with mods).

Aside from fixing the obvious flaws, I would like to see things like production chains (settlers grow crops, boil them to adhesive, or they raise some form of cattle and produce cured meat, or any recepie really, including guns and ammo).

Basically I would like to have Banished scaled down, plus combat, crafting, scavenging and such that come with Fallout, that would rock (pun intended).

The base game is available on PC for $19.99 on Amazon.

nah dont use Freedome, it's very popular at the moment and hard to connect. - Download WorldVPN (Free for 1hr which is long enough) - Quit Steam - Install WorldVPN - Login & change location to Australia or New Zealand (I did NZ) - Open Steam, it should start unpacking the file (Probably will take 20 mins) - When it's done go to Steam (top left) -> Go Offline - Start the game & enjoy

If you go back online before it's out in your country it will lock it again (so you'll have to re-do the process.)

Im thinking about using a VPN but I'm not 100% sure how it works. I've downloaded FlyVPN and they have a New Zealand proxy on the list. Is it as simple as connecting to that and then booting up steam?

He definitely got it from Bethesda but he broke the NDA he signed and decided to stream it. The YouTube account was created 2 days ago, meaning he doesn't want to get caught doing it on an account that can be easily traced back to him. He's most likely some sort of reviewer who was given a copy early (by Bethesda) with special permissions through steam.

You can see here that there are active users in steam for the game even though it isn't out yet. This streamer is almost definitely one of those people.

In all likelihood those people playing on steam are testing for bugs - in fact it's almost certain for a few reasons:

• We're seeing less people in-game than before review copies were even dropped.

• Over the weekend absolutely 0 people logged in to play the game on PC, then picked it back up on Monday during business hours. The implication is pretty obvious considering console review copies are being taken home by reviewers.

• Also the fact that when people quit, it's all within a ~30 minute interval at around midnight. They did similar with earlier games in the run up to release to squash any bugs.

• We've not seen a single unboxing/show-off of the PC Pip-Boy edition, yet plenty for PS4 and Xbox One.

Source is https://steamdb.info/app/377160/subs/, only the one that says "Store or CD Key" is the sub sold to the public & is currently encrypted, the other subs are CD key only and likely used for internal stuff/QA/review copies.

Edit: more source, clicking the first sub there takes you to https://steamdb.info/sub/69992/ which says "ReleaseStateOverride": "released", so there are definitely keys out there which let you get early access to it.

I have an IFTTT applet running for /u/HotRodHunter's Creation Club Freebies posts. I think you can also set up lot of the various reddit apps to fire alerts too.

It's actually not too hard to make these yourself! This is the result of 60 screenshots from my PS4 stitched together using Hugin.

Once you have enough screenshots to cover a sphere, you can stitch it into a "Stereographic" projection so that it looks like a little planet. There are several tutorials for this online like this one although they deal with IRL photos and not videogames.

The hard part is that you have to be quick when taking the screenshots because the lighting in Fallout 4 changes every minute or so. This makes tall trees, clouds, and hanging wires a huge pain to align. I'm in the process of building a PC so that hopefully I won't have these issues in the future, and to see what these would look like with 4k screenshots.

Don't get stuck waiting on commercial WTFast dumb authentication email, use the open source academic research VPN tool from University of Tsukuba, Japan:

http://www.vpngate.net/en/

Easy install, fast servers, and help science.

Does anyone know anything about VyprVPN? I'm using the free 3 day trial but I'm not sure if they use data caps or not...

EDIT: Waiting for confirmation on the Data Caps. Their website says that their data is unlimited but so do American ISP's so no clue if it's true or not. THEY DO HOWEVER keep track of data so if you want to do something that's not exactly legal you might want a different VPN.

EDIT 2: According to Extremely_Volatile it has a 500mb cap.

If you don't use the VPN to take advantage of sales in other territories, you have ZERO risk of being banned. If you use it to simply unlock a game you've already purchased, you will not have any issues whatsoever. I've unlocked games via VPN countless times over the years with no problem. Use FlyVPN's free trial to unlock 16 hours early via New Zealand time. It takes less than 5 minutes to do.

So what I'm getting from all this is most of the free easy vpns are not connecting, because I'm sitting here waiting for Freedome, but no cigar. What do, do I wait? Is there any other free vpn programs?

• Close steam
• DL Spotflux
• Set it to the Australian server
• Connect to the Australian server
• Once connected open steam
• The game should start unpacking
• Once it has unpacked close spotflux and play

I've thought about doing one of these. I thought I'd try out using the Pip-Boy Companion app for Android to lessen the constant use of my in-game Pip-Boy.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bethsoft.falloutcompanionapp

Sadly, I always found that Zooper drained my battery alot, so I opted for Final Countdown

Don't read too far into it. There is only 8,000ish reviews so far. 6,879 positive, 1,692 negative. 445,537 peak players today. (was the top spot for a good portion of the day) and is the second most played on Steam right now. The number of reviews will grow as the game ages. For now, a lot of the negative reviews are just people experiencing issues with the game that will probably end up getting fixed.

PC sales at least for Skyrim were huge and definitely not just 15% of their market. According to this, Skyrim has over 9.5 million owners on steam: https://steamdb.info/app/72850/graphs/ Skyrim was reported to have sold over 20 million copies, so PC sales were definitely not 15%.

They are literally a fascist organization. As in, Maxson's Brotherhood of Steel fit the most widely accepted definition of Fascism, the one put for by Umberto Echo in his work "Ur-Fascism" the 14 points. http://www.openculture.com/2016/11/umberto-eco-makes-a-list-of-the-14-common-features-of-fascism.html

http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/requirements/fallout-4-high-resolution-texture-pack/15427

Looks like it can run it easily, even with the high res texture pack. I'm not surprised looking at the price of that laptop, have fun with it!

This is weird, because I'm having a surprising experience with my eVGA GTX 560 Ti 1GB. I'm actually running it on high! I don't understand why or how this is working. But I set it to high, and it's running (relatively) great. However, there are features that seem to just be disabled (even though they are enabled). For example, I notice sometimes it takes a while for some textures to load properly. Also, the rain effect on the ground just does not show up at all. These are just a couple that I noticed.

EDIT This is the card that I have: http://www.evga.com/articles/00609/

Got news for ya. YouTube can be just as big a Malware vendor as any other website running ads.

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/youtube-major-source-malware/

If a YT user is trying to make money with content, they should have a Patreon, or other tip/payment service. Utilize it, and pay them that way. YouTube is also, these days...finding ways to nickel and dime away the people making money off ad content. So you'd be doing them a favor by hitting their patreon.

Alright, I finally posted it to AO3 - Click here to read!

There are two other flash-fic pieces I wrote, too. Maybe I'll get back into it.

It's not the law but most places do seem to honor pricing mistakes given that the difference isn't ridiculous

This build is along the lines you desire It is based off the Silver Shroud, but in general Fudge Muppet does playable builds.

https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=microfilm+reader&id=5BA5294170CBDFA3A18ED2EDDAE5275AC351D76C&FORM=IQFRBA

It is to read microfilm. They were big back in the days before digital storage. In the game they have been miniaturized and turned into an I/O station for creating, sending and reading microfilm. A very 50's retro-futurism idea.

no --- this is in the actual Fallout4.exe I verified it myself. You can too here is how:

go to Sourceforge and download and install Frhed (free Hex editor) here is the link:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/frhed/

Next open Frhed, in the upper left hand corner click on file -> open, then navigate to where you installed Fallout 4 commonly found in:

*(Main Drive):\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4*

Open Fallout4.exe and hit "Ctrl+f" this will open a search window type in "DLCNukaworld.esm" and you will find it... right there in your own Fallout4.exe

Personally I like to use this little tool called "WindowedBorderlessGaming"

Disable fullscreen in the game, tab out of the game, choose "select game" from the tray icon, press [F3] in the game and you are basically done. You cannot still change some options like screen offset (some games still don't really fit the screen, so you can resize them or push them off the screen a couple of pixels so you don't have any borders left on the screen)

Just an idea, but glad you already fixed it yourself! =)

http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/793/? The current One Punch Man mod

http://www.daisuki.net/anime/detail/ONEPUNCHMAN Season One of One Punch Man on the studio's own website. Very classy of them. NSFW series, Animated Gore / Comedic Violence and more, Rated 18+

Any videos that become non-existent (say from being deleted) get called to load then silently fail and the game moves on as if they played. (as it's been for all Bethesda games related to these engines)

FYI: Intro.bk2 is the long spiel with "war never changes" and the troops in the desert or whatever.
MainMenuLoop.bk2 is the background for the main menu, GameIntro_V3_B.bk2 is the "Please wait-vault symbol" 5 second loading thing when you first launch the game [so before main menu], so it has something for you to look at instead of a blank loading screen.

For anyone interested in watching them separately, you can play them all with the RAD Video Tools located here: http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm (The RAD Video Tools [1.2 MB]) (download, install, open from start menu, select video)

~~For some reason the only video with audio integrated is the 5 second PLEASE WAIT intro, and I assume the actual audio for these videos is in a BSA somewhere; RAD Video Tools lets you sync up audio to play alongside them, but I haven't looked into it yet.~~

Edit: I lied. Just highlight one and use Advanced Play>Play.

Interesting side note: Assuming your computer is reasonably quick, and you remove GameIntro and MainMenuLoop, you'll be at "Press any button to start" basically instantly after clicking Play in the launcher.

Here is the link: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/1334/?

Under "Features" it supports: Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout NV and Skyrim currently. I used it for Skyrim a couple of times and fell in love with it, would love to use it for Fallout 4 eventually!

This is the one we got. The frame is not included. It looks like it's out of stock but if you search for it, there's a few other options.

I believe you can get it 16 hours early? It will be 12am in New Zealand when it's 6am here on the east coast.

I've heard FlyVPN is good. But any VPN that allows you to change IP to New Zealand should work

Been trying for an hour using HideMyAss VPN, to no avail. Going to the steam store website showed the game correctly as playable in AUS, but Steam client was still saying pre-load only.

Ended up trying VyprVPN, with the same result. Getting really annoyed.

Then bothered to look at Steam and saw my Macbook was also connected to Steam, so logged that off, reconnected to Steam and it worked. Just in time to go back to work.

There are guides out there. Here's a basic one.

Basically, you double click "VPN Gate Public VPN Relay Servers," find a New Zealand VPN, and double-click that VPN. You'll be prompted for an option that's recommended, click OK, and then you'll be connected. When you're connected, you're well and truly connected, and the only thing you need to do then is run Steam and unlock Fallout 4.

Nearly every VPN Provider has a picture guide to their custom software. If you don't want to pay, check for a free trial and I can almost guarantee you, 1 or more of the first 3 will have a proper guide (for their easy as fuck software).

With IPVanish for example (no clue if they offer a trial) you can just click at a spot on a map to connect to that location :)

I do it all the time and have never had issues. Just get a trial for free at FlyVPN, connect to a server in Australia, play Fallout 4 super early, and sign out of Steam to keep playing until the game unlocks in your region. You don't have to stay on the VPN account the whole time. Steam DOES NOT care. They only care if you use a VPN to access regional sales. Then you can get banned. I've done this for so many games on Steam over the years and never had issues. This means that we can play at 7AM eastern time on Monday morning :-)

I've thought about doing one of these. I thought I'd try out using the Pip-Boy Companion app for Android to lessen the constant use of my in-game Pip-Boy.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bethsoft.falloutcompanionapp

Quick link to the app store for the lazy like me

Edit: You can also tap on their heads to make them wobble. It's adorable.

Edit 2: Swiping up/down moves the camera. The Fallout logo is etched into the table and there's an Nvidia logo on the Nuka Cola machine. There's also a color coded map on the table that doesn't look like the Commonwealth.

It took me quiet a while to piece this map together, I really hope everyone like it!! :-D if you want the Pip-boy app you can get it here : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bethsoft.falloutcompanionapp

-currently only Android version is available-

I believe Kainy supports hardware inputs, though I've never tried it myself. You need a special app and root access, however, to use a ps3 controller.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller

So the answer is, maybe. I will check it out on my tablet tomorrow.

EDIT: My tablet just updated so I can't quite root it just yet.

In response to my increasing addiction to the hype for Fallout 4 and the epicness of these videos, I created a personalized S.P.E.C.I.A.L Calculator. Enjoy! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blackwoodstudio.fallout4skillcalculator

Hey, normally I'd agree but if your username isn't sarcastic I'm not sure it was meant to be. I'm pretty ordinary with graphics, music and sounds is my main forte. Anyway here is the flag (replaces the MM-flag), a anarcho-syndicalist bandana (replaces the Stars & Stripes bandana), a tattoo (replaces the eagle one, facetat02) and two MM decal re-placers (replaces a bunch of MM logos such as on the radio in the Castle). I'm doing a MM overhaul where they organize in anarcho-syndicalist communes. These are some stuff I made after being inspired by Thumblesteen (http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/users/2401822/?) on Nexus who made "The Ultimate Anarchist mod" so will try to aid him in his efforts instead of making a separate one as he seems to be a much more experienced modder than me.

To prevent Steam from redownloading: aside the game itself you need the corresponding AppManifest. You will find it the SteamApps directory. Ask Google for "fallout 4 appid" and something like https://steamdb.info will pop up, pointing you to the correct file.

Who supplied Steam with those assets? Who made the whole game in the first place? Who could have Steam release a select number of keys early? Who has the source code so that one could program the exe to not look for steam when setting up?

Could be the ones who are playing right now on Steam could be reviewers.

You or I would have to go through Steam, Bethesda has no such limitation.

From what I've learned, sounds like fortyseven was less selective with review codes early on. When they realized there were at least three requests to every code available—in the UK alone—they clamped down and started sending out denials and pulling confirmations.

The other possibility is that some screenshots and videos were leaked by friends and family, developers, or contractors. SteamDB indicates that Fallout 4 peaked at 24 players online on October 23. That's a good number of people with access to the PC game.

Maxson's Brotherhood of Steel are literally Fascists. As in Maxon's Brotherhood of Steel fits the Definition of Fascism.

Fallout 4 system requirements | Can I Run Fallout 4 (systemrequirementslab.com)

UserBenchmark: Intel UHD Graphics 630 (Desktop Coffee Lake i5 i7) vs Nvidia GTX 550-Ti

Hey there! I just wanted to offer a few words of advice here as an IT guy/PC enthusiast:

1. 24gb of ram is an extreme amount of ram. Like an absolute TON. There's no reason that Fallout 4 would ever use anywhere near that much ram, anyone with just 8gb of ram would be set to run Fallout 4 with no issues. What I'm getting at here is that your issue definitely doesn't have to do with ram because with 24gb you have enough to probably run Fallout 4 three times over.

2. Likely the issue you are describing is because your graphics card isn't able to handle Fallout 4 adequately. Others have suggested updating your drivers and while that may help, an issue on the level you describe honestly probably would not be solved by updating drivers. So you are most likely correct in suspecting you'd need a new, more powerful graphics card! If you want a good reference on where to start for a new graphics card you could try this website which lists the minimum specs required to run Fallout 4 and the recommended specs for good framerates/graphics. You'll probably wanna shoot form the recommended specs!

trying to remember, was on C64 version and it showed a ufo setting of the the war. did a google search for it, but maybe not right keywords

Edit: shortly after this scene, but can't find a video of it: http://www.mobygames.com/game/c64/wasteland/screenshots/gameShotId,79373/

I printed this one: nuka girl

> higher end games like GTA V.

GTA V - released 2 years ago.

Fallout 4 - new game, requires twice the resources.

The thing is, these "min requirement" lists aren't even accurate anyway - my CPU maxes regularly while playing FO4, but my RAM usage never goes above 2.5GB (I have 8) Different programs (and games) put more burden on different resources.

I suggest you post your actual system specs, and maybe we can spot the limiting factor. Its also possible your install screwed up.

True. I would be more worried about the graphics card though. If it's integrated, you probably won't be able to play it.

I would try this from your computer at home.

Since you've not played a video game since the 80's I can guarantee you that your hardware isn't fast enough. I did see you use GIS software, if you use that on the computer you want to play the game on you probably have enough RAM and a powerful processor (at my old workplace we had ArcGIS and that thing ate every bit of memory and processor you could throw at it) and would need to buy a video card. If you only have a laptop then you're out of luck on upgrading it.

Check out this website, http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri . Pick Fallout 4 and it will tell you if your computer meets the requirements. If it does not and you need to upgrade a part, check out /r/buildapc.

If your current system can't be upgraded for whatever reason, then you'll want to decide between buying a computer (as mentioned, /r/buildapc is a good place to start) or a console Fallout 4 bundle. If you don't have the money for it or don't want to bother with it, there's plenty of other games to try out that won't tax your system too much. www.gog.com has lots of older games and newer indie games, right now they are having a sale. Recently there's been a resurgence of old style RPGs like Legend of Grimrock.

Just make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements and you have enough space allocated for Windows through Bootcamp

There are only two reasons I would say you should get it for PC: Either you want it to look amazing or if you enjoy modding.

If your specs are below minimum or just above minimum, I would bet the PS4 will look better and should not give you lag. If you have the recommended settings I would say get it for PC as that will be the best looking experience. If you don't want to stress over possible performance issues if you have a borderline good PC then get it for the PS4.

As for the modding, as far as I know it will still be an option on the PS4 several months later. I am fairly certain modding will not be as easy on the PS4 and there probably won't be as many mods available. For someone who loves modding this part bums me out the most, but I already know I would have to run FO4 on minimum settings which is not worth the bother for me.

Good luck!

Open Broadcaster can give you loss-less results if you set it up correctly (granted it will be a HUGE file)

Here is a configuration to give you good quality local recordings: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/

Personally though, if you use any Nvidia 600 series or better, Shadowplay is the best. Here is a vid to get it working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPS_3VNsxhw

OBS! I keep seeing people use these crappy free versions of capture software that have watermarks and limited resolution capture.

OBS is free and lets you do local recordings that are high quality. I highly recommend it.

1. The pop-up message (top left) notifying the player of attacks only shows for 2 seconds by default. It is so easy to miss these and get a fail. Needs extending (there are mods).

2. Radio Freedom being broadcast from The Castle is a cool immersive touch. Yet the continual violin music you have to listen too presumably all the time waiting for flash reports is unbearable after a while. I use a mod which removes the music and it actually becomes a useful tool which provides time updates which I like.

But I don' think I have received one actual broadcast attack warning while leaving it on for days (even before the mod added) Probably because looking at the game files the attack commences when you arrive as a script. There are the actual quest attacks and random attacks too. Either way it needs to actually broadcast on the imminent danger of an attack on a named settlement.

Who else has actually heard a message like this?

Minutemen Radio Operator - Attack Warning

There are a lot of variants but I never get them which is a shame.

An occasional musical 'promo' would be fine but not constant music. A bit of back ground static then the hourly reports and attack warning would be great. I actually enjoy the game music and along with environmental sounds, it becomes all too much otherwise.

Yes these can be adjusted via mods but this system really does need some more thought to make it a functional and usable part of the game.

To avoid getting spammed with radial quests I kept around three non kidnap quests in my log and didn't get given more until I got around to doing them.

Revert your drivers and disable Windows 10's ability to install driver updates for you (note that if you revert the driver, it may not show up in the "hide updates" utility; just continue on to disabling driver updates).

People in the modern age seem to forget just how big the world actually is without planes, trains, and automobiles to move us around. Before we had those most people never travelled more than 20 miles from where they were born.

The entire planet of Azeroth in World of Warcraft is only about 80 square miles (including the ocean) but still that's smaller than Long Island which is 1,400 square miles.

If the map in Fallout 4 was actual real life size it would take you 8 to 10 hours to jog from Vault 111 to the Castle the first time. (Depending on how much you had to detour due to destroyed bridges and raider infested towns.)

While I would love to play in a world that immersive, you just can't make 400 square miles of game map without a massive development team just to place objects and create terrain, and playing that game would be a multi-year time investment.

It was late and I wasn't really wasn't paying attention tbh... I saw the explosives but not the mine. When the mine went off I just ran through it, and then panicked. Moved to the public folder so you can see the whole thing (if you care) https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=7BC3352D6E232A6D!127&authkey=!AJNv08_p4zbe_Yw&ithint=video%2cmp4

Just a small tip!

If you like lore-friendly weapons, you should keep an eye on a WIP mod called "Wasteland Arsenal" that will try to bring many old/classic weapons to Fo4. Here is the announcement post showing the first models!

Obviously, there's still a LOT of work to be done, but it looks like a really promising project! ^-^

Whilst bethesda.net and nexusmods.com are trustworthy sites, understand that there is ZERO quality control on mod publishing so you have to READ the description and form your OWN opinion on the likely quality and impact on your game.

Maybe try Passmark performance test to see if your PC has cpu/mem related issues. Here's url for the site: http://www.passmark.com/products/pt.htm

At least back in the days system restore did nothing but messed pc up. Especially display drivers did not work properly. Some people use DDU display driver removal tool, then reboot and install new (or maybe a bit older) drivers.

Honestly that's a nice card you've picked out but check out this one from EVGA - http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.aspx?pn=04G-P4-3974-KR

For just ~10 more bucks you get a higher Boost clock and EVGAs awesome ACX 2.0 cooling

There is a mod that adds more humanoid assaultrons. They have a clean, pure look and a vanilla sort of dark, evil look. Armour that has a royal variant. One has Justice and one has skulls.

I did Ada as an Angel of justice and Jezebel as the fallen version.

Fun fact: both quotes originated from the real-life Marine Corps general James Mattis

Also for what it's worth I think that quote is a bit extreme. If my girlfriend or best friend really wanted to kill me, I'm just gonna have to be dead. Fuck trusting NO one...too much of a hassle.

It isn't legal. You can ship wine in America, but not beer.

Edit: At quick google glance, here's a list of a few states and their laws concerning the shipment of alcohol. The link isn't working great for me because my work uses Internet Explorer. You'll also have to read up on the policies of shipping services like DHL (overseas shipping), and FedEx (In-state shipments). Most say just get a wine box from your local distributor of spirits and wine, and then cover up any word or logo referring to alcohol. Then you have to pack the case super tight and good to avoid snooping. I'm sure it's against some sort of policy for shipping services to probe your package deeply, if at all. I also read that beer doesn't ship well at high altitude, so it's not typically allowed on planes - I suspect this is why they serve beer in cans when you fly.

it's free

although you probably wanna download the starter pack

if you're familiar with roguelikes (actual roguelikes, not the games with roguelike tags on Steam) you will definitely want to try it. otherwise it can be a bit of a pain to get into

note that "adventure mode" is the mode somewhat close to what you described. "fortress mode" is more like a regular city management game.

also note that a new major update just released so there will be a couple bug fix releases the coming weeks and a lot of third party tools and mods are not up to date yet

See, that's what's sad about people these days. They "know" they are correct so even when someone presents them with undisputable facts that they are wrong, all they can do is call someone names and keep insisting that they are correct.

Go to /r/grammar and do a search for yay. You'll see several people who ask a "yay or nay" question in there and do you know what the top comment in every single thread is? Someone correcting them that it's actually supposed to be yea instead of yay. You want to know what that is? Because you're wrong. It's always been yea or nay, it's just now there are so many people that don't know that yea and yay rhyme, they think that yeah and yea are the same word, and so we have morons like you who insist they know what they are talking about when really they're just embarrassing themselves.

If you were right, you would be able to prove it. Show me a link to a dictionary or something that says yay is a proper way to show a positive response to a vote. But you can't do that, because that's not how the words work. However I can do that with yea. Because I'm not stupid like you are.

Some thoughts from a guy who does magazine layout for a living:

• Use a more legible body text. Novelty fonts should never, ever be used for body content. I'd suggest Ubuntu, which has some of the squarish shape you're using there.
• Space your header from the rest of your text. Create hierarchy: What do you want people see first, second, third, and so on?
• Use blank areas to separate the items you just numerated. These blank areas should be proportional to the size of the item - "A Fearless Leader" should have a solid 1" to 2" of space around it, and the body text can have more like 0.25 to 0.5.
• Pick a subheader. Right now you have two, and it's confusing, particularly because the shorter/pithier subheader is below the longer one (the quote). If you really want both, put the quote on the right, which will feel more like quote - almost like a dialog box.
• You're not using your space efficiently. Why not put the title over on the guy's chest?
• Full justification is almost never a good idea. Use left justify.
• Find a way to either make text more legible when it's over his jacket (a light background screen, for example), or use Photoshop to extend the background so that the text is only over the ocean.
• Consider using white instead of black text; it'll be a stronger contrast to the background.
• Consider doing some Photoshop/illustrator work on the logo to give it a brushed steel texture, to help differentiate it from all the other stuff around it. Tutorials abound online.
• Why is there an out-of-focus area on his chest? If that's an effect, it should be much more gradual. If it isn't, try to fix it by blurring out part of it for a more smooth (if kinda clunky) bokeh effect.
• Consider masking Maxson out from the background and either lightening him or darkening the background - right now his image has a similar luminosity to the background, which kinda pushes him back a bit.

If FO4 does support border-less windowed mode as shown in this option menu screenshot (https://i.imgur.com/WLb1yhE.jpg) then it should handle alt-tabbing just fine. If those screens are false/fake and it doesn't support borderless windowed then you can most likely use the windowed borderless gaming program (http://westechsolutions.net/sites/WindowedBorderlessGaming/) as a workaround. I haven't had any problems using it for New vegas (like double cursors from alt-tabbing).

Here are a couple of modlists that are work looking at. I used the first one as a base and then added a handful more on top. I haven't tried the second one but the screenshots look pretty impressive if you don't mind a pretty significant change in aesthetic from the vanilla world.
