FALLOUT 4 IS HERE!!!!

[FeliciaJollygoodfellow]

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.

Which Laser Rifle? Righteous Authority? or should it just be MN-renamed to Lasle??

Dog meat is cool, but a bit weak as a companion. I just got Deacon's perk last night. wheeee

Lasle

I think it's this one.

Dogmeat is rubbish, but I'm a sucker for dogs

Dogmeat is cute - give him a teddy bear one day and see what happens

Must find a teddy bear.

That's my mission for tonight. Thanks Binary

OMG I found a teddy yesterday, almost picked it up but couldn't think what I'd use it for!

Must go back!

You're supposed to scarp them for cloth and leather - but I just collect them and put them in "my" bedroom in Sanctuary

I'll get a screenshot one day and show you!

Oh no no no now I'm going to be collecting Teddy Bears and Toy Aliens.......

And Jangles the Space Monkey

Personally I'm collecting Nuke Cola Quantum's and Cherry's as I'm sure there's going to be a quest where I have to hand some over. I've got loads of them lined up in my Diamond City house.

Jangles the Space Monkey creeps me out, especially when he does his cymbals

Ditto. If you hit him, his head falls off and it's quite satisfying.

Not that dude!

This dude. And apologies he is a Moon Monkey not a space monkey.

Have spent wasted an hour today sorting out Home Plate it's looking a bit gorgeous lots of shelving but can only store stuff in the bureau or in trunks not on shelves

Loving 4. In the run up to its release I started playing Vegas again. Which was surprising as I didn't enjoy it as much as 3..played yet a different character and got shafted by the robot lol. Never mind many others. Right dirty fucker my character was.. Trying to find another one on 4

Yeah and you can't fill up a Nuka Cola machine which is annoying!

I am not able to play a bad character. I didn't like Vegas partly because the karma was a lot more ambiguous than on 3. I miss karma on 4 although making the companions like you is kind of similar.

My companion is strong. I have several potential ones scattered. I found him pretty early on in the game. But I tend to go off grid and do lots of exploring. Then go through some missions to see where I don't get killed straight away. One of the reasons why I enjoy sandbox games.

Still hating the deathclaws. Although this time you do get the warning they are around.. Still the fuckers make me jump.

Keep a hamza suit. This gets you safely into the glowing sea to find Virgil. Just make sure you are heavily armed up and quic save a lot.

And surely it's not just me that enjoys watching a head coming away or something being blown up..

Nearly level 33 here. But means nothing. I have 14 perks to add, and like I said I go off mission and wander around. Top of my quest list is to travel to C.i.t have about 20 under this.

My eldest has finished it. Said one of the perks is that unlike the others when finished still stuff to do.. I am not asking him though
Cos I don't want the spoilers. So he could be winding me up.. And yes, he's over 18 lol.6

I'm level 39 now - I literally found Strong in the last hour!

I've been doing loads of side quests but have got back on the main quest now.

I can't figure out what to do with the armour though. I've found two so far (and loads of bits) but I've lost one and can't figure out how to repair the bits!

Near workbenches are odd looking yellow things (cannot thing what they are called and surrounded by zombies at the mo). Look like garbage and scrap but unable to. Take the power suits to there to repair etc.. All power armor bit you pick up store there.

Talking of work benches took me age
To realize they are not connected. So now have loads of boxes in one location and each dedicated to steel, circuitry, crystal etc..all on alphabetical order..

Oh and strong doesn't like you picking locks.. He's still faithful and still feeding me though lol

Strong likes fighting and not much else

I've just given Nick Valentine the Searing Shishkebab and he's gone crazy attacking ghouls I can practically stand around dancing. I've sent Strong somewhere and can't remember where anyone know how to track a companion?

I use The Castle as my main base and send companions there when I change them so that I remember where they are. If you build a bell in a settlement you can ring it and that will make everyone there come to the bell. If you really can't find a companion after trying round settlements then it is possible they went back to where you originally found them.

There is a supply lines perk which allows you to share resources among settlements. Once you get that perk you go to a settlement and enter build mode, select a settler and there should be an option for supply line. If you do this then they will walk to whichever settlement you chose and then anything you put in either of those settlements will be available to use in both. I set all my supply lines to the castle so that I can dump my junk there and it will be available to all my settlements. By doing this I only have to send 1 settler from each settlement to the castle. You can view the supply lines in your map so you know which ones are connected.

You can spawn them if you're using PC

otherwise you just have to go and look for them - try your bases first.
