  • What's going on with your life?

    Quote from leplubodeslapin

    I've been working for 2 months on my internship within the innovation platform of a design and technical department. I'm working on a drone that must navigate both in the air, on earth and on water. I've gathered and invented many first concepts and i finally chose 1 this week, it's a sweet mechanism. And now i'm starting the design process. The project goes well

    Sounds really interesting. I'd love to work with drones.

    I recently moved out of my parents into a house with some friends. It's been a lot of fun so far and we've mostly been having friends over for drinks, movies, games and parties. It's like being back at uni again. :D D: :D D: :D D:

  • Fallout 4

    Quote from Sprony

    We've talked about this before. You would love a smelly turd if it has a Fallout logo on it

    Haha I know. But for me I hadn't played the originals before Bethesda did their take on Fallout so I haven't got the same nostalgia as you have. I have since played the originals and I can definitely see where you're coming from though.

    Honestly, I wasn't feeling Fallout 4 at the beginning of the game. Hell even after doing some of the early quests and getting power armour etc I still wasn't feeling it. I'd been through the city and made it to the coast I was really not enjoying it as much as I thought I would be. Then after about 10 hours of gameplay it all clicked into place and I fell in love with it.

    I think there are a lot of new things in the game and it throws them all at you right from the start. Power armour and needing power cores to power it. Crafting weapons, armour and your own settlement. The main bulk of Boston city is huge and there's little buildings you can enter all over the place. There's always a fight going on in the distance and the new VATS system is slightly different. You can see all of the skills and perks off the bat and I think the combination of all that is a bit much and I needed to learn how it all worked.

    Once you've had chance to let it all sink in though it just becomes second nature like any other game and I find myself looking forward to playing it now. Especially at the point in the story I'm at, I want to know more... but first I'm going to explore this ruin and kill these Super Mutants. :)

    I'm sure you'll agree that VATS is less useful now- you can have 92% chance to hit but somehow shoot the cover 3-4 times the enemy has slow-motioned behind.

    You can press Tab to cancel the VATS sequence if the enemy has moved behind cover etc.

    Personally I've not experienced many bugs at all. My experience is very similar to Jackophants. I've played almost 50 hours and not progressed into the main quest too far. I'm just having a blast exploring the wasteland and finding all the little stories. I did really enjoy the Witcher 3 (Never got passed the second zone though) but I just prefer the world of Fallout I think.

  • What have you watched recently?

    Currently half way through this show and loving it so far. Some really great characters and tension built throughout.

  • Fallout 4

    Quote from Vaya

    Did anyone attempt straying from the beginning path? (I'm talking about everything up to the deathclaw fight) wondering what happens if you just fuck off in another direction out of the vault.

    @Jord who sits next to me at work did just that. Nothing different happens as far as I could tell and the Minutemen will still be there fighting raiders once you walk into town.

    The only place it doesn't let you stray from the path is during the intro before the bomb drops. If you try to walk out of town the bomb drops early and you just die.

  • Fallout 4

    Quote from jackophant

    Regarding the size of the map, in fallout 3 a lot of DC wasn't traversable. You kept taking loading screens between places. FO4 has much less of that and is far more free roaming. I also refuse to believe that there is nothing in the right portion of the map which is mainly sea... There must be something down there, maybe Rivet city will somehow be operational and float along?

    Don't forget there's a perk which allows you to breathe underwater!

  • Fallout 4

    God I wish I had more free time to pour into this game X( I've played for around 13 hours now but mostly in 1-2 hour chunks or so. That's barely enough time to complete a quest and explore a building or two most of the time. I'm just too busy to even begin to look at building my own base!

    Need the Christmas holidays to hurry up and roll around!

    But yeah, not really experienced any bugs either. I got stuck in a terminal screen once and sometimes the subtitles get stuck on a particular line until the end of a conversation. But apart from that there's been nothing else for me. Not what I was expecting from a Bethesda game!

  • The Long Dark

    Yeah I played this a bit like 5 months ago or something and even back then it was a very nice survival game. I remember it was quite tough but it was fun exploring and trying to survive.

    The audio in the game is really nice too. They really make you feel cold!

  • Fallout 4

    Only played around 2 hours but really enjoying the game. Only got stuck in one terminal and I had a save only a minute or two back so didn't annoy me too much and I've had some subtitles get stuck during a conversation but apart from those I've not experienced any other bugs.

    Can't wait for the weekend to really sink my teeth into this!
