I preordered from Amazon and it came today, played for a couple of hours while the small one was at nursery now waiting for everyone to go to bed so I can continue!

So far I'm missing DJ Three Dog but everything else is spot on.

So, if you're there - just try and get in.

Also in VATS, if a target has a skull after their name, it means they are definitely much tougher than you are, and you might want to re-consider.

Just been playing - have increased my relationship with maccready but not enough. Don't you hate it when a mercenary plays hard to get?

I'm level 37, just levelled up.

Thank you for the tip about the skulls!

BeccaMumsnet · 15/01/2016 09:16

Apologies for radio silence. It's been a little busy!

That Columbia build is amazing Shock
Going to spend quite a large chunk of my weekend playing so will hopefully have something more interesting to say next week. Got some catching up to do.

FeliciaJollygoodfellow · 15/01/2016 12:14

I'm hoping to as we'll Becca, I got Tomb Raider for Christmas as well though so trying to find the time for two....

I just got the Shem Drowne Sword - that deals rad damage oooooh

BeccaMumsnet · 15/01/2016 14:40

Ooooh shiny!

00100001 · 15/01/2016 16:28

I'm yet to kill anyone with it yet, as I have a lovingly crafted Sniper Rifle (renamed to Snipey Grin) and a powerful(ish) shotgun ...(called Scotty Blush)

I want to find/make a .50cal gun though!

00100001 · 15/01/2016 16:30

I'm not the only one to rename my weapons... right???

FeliciaJollygoodfellow · 15/01/2016 18:28

I might rename my sniper rife Snifle. As in Snifle Rifle Grin

I lack the imagination to rename if I'm honest.

I am itching to get back on but those bloody kids are playing Plants V Zombies beta! Get orf my Xbox!

BeccaMumsnet · 16/01/2016 11:53

Rude Shock

Tell them those who pay get priority. You might get some money out of it, even if you don't get the Xbox.

Also at Snipey and Snifle.

FeliciaJollygoodfellow · 16/01/2016 17:35

I've found out how to stream the Xbox to my laptop, so bonus is I can play on that and they can play on the 360 on the tv.

Good thinking Felicia Grin

DH thinks Snifle is a great name and is currently renaming his Sniper Rifle!

lighteningirl · 17/01/2016 16:46

I love strong I want to work through Curie's quest but am getting nowhere fast so have jumped to McCready for a while I did like the artillery at The Castle

Pastamancer · 17/01/2016 17:03

I have the companion perk for MacCready and Codswallop so far. I did start with Deacon but he is a PITA as he whinges about violence. How on earth are you supposed to play the game without killing anyone? Confused I got fed up with him and switched to Danse. I am ready to go to the Institute but want to get a load more companion perks first.

lighteningirl · 17/01/2016 17:23

I have Piper's and Strong's perk am working on Curie and McCready

FeliciaJollygoodfellow · 17/01/2016 17:26

Tell me about these companion perks. How will I know when I've got them and how do I get them? Do I keep them when I change companion?

OP posts:
00100001 · 17/01/2016 17:39

You have to keep impressing tour companion. It will tell you in the upper left "companian liked/disliked that"
Then eventually the will admire you and then at some point they will initiate a conversation with you and you'll get the perk (might not be the first conversation)

My companion is currently Deacon, he likes me picking locks and dislikes drugs

lighteningirl · 17/01/2016 17:51

You can check which perks you've got in the status menu I'm another one who doesn't often bother with power armour I do like the ability to modify my armour

00100001 · 17/01/2016 18:37

I had to abandon power armour I got chased by a sentrybot and nearly drowen. Its now at the bottom of a river somewhere!

lighteningirl · 17/01/2016 19:44

I really love my aquaboy perk I am rubbish under water

BeccaMumsnet · 18/01/2016 09:00

Does anyone know the name of that lazer rifle? Or is that it's official name?

I was using it on Saturday and it's bloomin' awesome.

I've currently got Dogmeat carrying around my power armour, in his magic dog pockets.
