Re: Fallout 4
Ugh...so many mistakes playing this so far. A couple of questions the Power Armor has everyone been using it since you found it? I ran out of power and didn't know what to use or if I even had it. I see it listed in some responses here but I am wondering if it will be where I left it (vault 111).
Couldn't get the dog to get me the special weapon...but didn't know I had to kneel down it appears. I need to go back to the vault anyway to check my armor.
I am about level 10 just started playing and cleared out the raiders and killed Jared. Could anyone get on the platform where he was?
I have had the subtitle glitch that has been mentioned and one in the water. I got stuck and couldn't move and died.

Also any Power Armor suits you've found show up on the map, as long as no one else is using it. NPC's can and will climb into them and then you'll "lose" them. However either this doesn't happen in your settlements, or friendly's don't use them, so they are safe there.

The last group/areas I hit was the Crater area. Got attacked by a bunch of religious nutbags using energy weapons that give you 99pts of radiation poisoning. They're also a bit hard to kill. I'm inly at level 25. I did spot nuke mines that surround their area and shooting one ignites a giant nuke-like explosion. It's only in a name since it really doesn't nuke everything. I think it has the same power as the bombs that the suicidal Super Mutants carry.
I think those are the Children of the Atom, which is a religious cult that worships nuclear bombs (or maybe a specific nuclear bomb/missile, not sure in this game).

Spoiler:
As far as Power Armor, even though it's better than the other stuff I have, I don't like it that much. I don't like the view and how clunky it feels, and I just like wearing goofy crap. For the longest time I was walking around with no pants, didn't notice I could wear my vault suit (and probably some other stuff) under it so I was just living with it (and finding it kind of funny that no one was saying anything). Then I was in Sanctuary and someone said "do you know you're not wearing any pants" and I finally figured it out.

I like to play on the "very easy" mode but some games punish you for doing this (i.e. shitty ending) - does Fallout do that? I ask this because I saw in the menu when selecting very easy that it said something about legendary monsters not being made available.

The higher the difficulty, the better loot drops you'll get. I started on normal and after leveling and getting perks, the game became too easy. Bumped it up to hard and have been getting challenging but not frustrating enemies. The enemies don't turn into bullet sponges. There's just more of them.

*shrug* Honestly I'm not sure. I thought I had to Power Armor's marked on my map, but one was left behind, so it's no longer showing up.

Re: Fallout 4
Something like that happened to me. Decided to run a little against a big enemy, so I took off my body armor, as soon as the big enemy attacked me, the friendly NPC ran away to take my armor. That was actually really helpful. He did most of the work, while I was hiding.
Then I tried to take my body armor back and he wouldn't let me
But when the quest ended, he left and left the body armor there.

Controller on PC playing on my big screen. Pretty much all my PC gaming is done on a couch nowadays. I can recline fine on my couch with a KBM though. Just have a nice/solid mouse pad that I put next to me on the middle section of the couch and my keyboard on my lap, works great.

Mouse and keyboard, even on a slower shooter i'm not a fan of using a controller with any sort of first person game. That said, some of the keyboard controls are annoying.

Re: Fallout 4
I haven't leveled up Luck hardly at all, but after reading some of this I think I am going to start.
My biggest "problem" now is I feel like I have 6-7 missions going at once. I have to wind some up before I start another but I just keep saying yes to everything because it's do darn fun.

Damn you people are fast! My character has just been slowly sauntering through the world. Sure, she's concerned about her son, but she's also concerned with setting up successful settlements all over the place, as well as hoarding weapons and ammo.

Re: Fallout 4
I'm getting irritated at having to travel back to the settlement to dump crap off all the time. A meager 10 lbs of capacity per point added to strength is bullshit. It is just not worth doing. Many guns weigh more than 10 lbs. I think this is way off when you consider all the crap you have to lug around.
