Want to get ahead of this before most of the game announcements come out today and over the next few days. If there are any new games announced that you'd like to discuss with other users, please do it here so we do not have a half dozen threads scattered around about them. The one exception is if Bethesda announces any new Fallout content (unlikely, but who knows), which obviously deserves its own individual thread. With that said, what do you want or expect to see at this year's E3? Any announcements come out already you like?

Not sure what to think about it right now (it is just a PvP shooter), but it was odd to see the next Vampire: The Masquerade game get a trailer before they've even given the last announced game a final release date lol.

Disclaimer: This is not a NV is GOAT post.

Fallout 4 easily has the best weapon modification system of any fallout game. but I can't help but feel that the unique and legendary weapons are just.... lazy. Now, correct me If I'm wrong, but I think fallout 4 has randomly generated unique weapons, aside from ones like the big boy or righteous authority (that's prolly how somebody found a goddamn ghoul slayers gamma gun). like, the game takes two factors (the gun and the perk) and randomly generates them. but thats not why I am here, so ill get to the point.

In NV, unique guns like maria or lucky... well at least they had different textures! in fo4 though, guns like reba I and II are just normal looking hunting rifles! please, bethesda, for fo5, be more creative.

If i'm idolized by the NCR and i nuke them i ho all the way down to vilified?

I want the unique coothing and im planning to nuke both, the Legion is not a problem because i already have bad reputation with them

Do you guys like to play Fallout Shelter on either the Switch or the app? Can this fandom be for that game too or just the Fallout games?

Everyone in my game has the name "Easy Pete" and they only say "Yup."

Want to preface this is just my opinion. Many might disagree with me and that's ok.

Fallout's next game need an overhaul to movement, recoil, and melee combat in the game for it's gameplay purposes. It also needs added in an Armor Resistance mechanic so enemies can be more than just bullet sponges on harder difficulties.

Legendary weapons are silly and also hurt the balancing of the game. If they want to have unique variants of weapons in the game. Do it like in Fallout 3 and New Vegas where you can find them in the world.

Guns need to have the return of the holster system. I want to be able to know what my enemies have before I start shooting at them. Allows for better strategy.

Now on to my main points as that was just me bringing up minor things.

Movement

The movement in the Fallout games is severely lacking. You can't prone or mantle objects. The way you lean around walls for shooting is janky and you can't even take cover like enemies in 3rd person mode.

Another thing about the current movement system is you can't crouch walk under things you should be able to. Which is very limiting.

At this moment in time the only thing crouching does is: Steady aim, sneak.

That is it, which is very weak in movement.

Fallout already has plenty of possible good settings and stories for in the future. Fallout 4 improved on gunplay quite a bit. Now it's time for movement to get an upgrade.

Allow me to climb buildings or trees. Let me crawl through pipes or crouch under low ceiling areas. Stuff like this would add a variety of gameplay choices that Fallout strives to do with every new game (look at the perk cards in 76). Just imagine being able to crawl past deathclaws into a pipe to escape. Being able to climb a ruined building that's first floor was ruined but it's second one wasn't.

For people that say there isn't enough buttons to do a proper parkour style system... well i mean i disagree have the action button that lets you snap your finger (the click sound you hear constantly if you hit the action but) let you do stuff like mantle or climb things. Prone can be tied to crouch but just have it be like in CoD where you can hold it to go prone.

Melee & Unarmed Combat

This is severely lacking in comparison to Skyrim. Which is understandable when comparing the games but then you realize these were made by the same company. Melee combat in Fallout 4's only saving grace is when you play in 3rd person and get custom attacks using the heavy attack button. The game feels fun when you do cool stuff like that.

What im suggest is an over haul with melee combat in general with more in depth weapon uses and maybe three different melee combat attacks when using a melee take buttons that aren't used during melee combat and give them actions during it.

(for now I'm just gonna use pc layout as I haven't played with a controller in ages)

Right mouse - basic melee

Scroll wheel click - kick attack

Bash button - heavy attack

This would help add more variety. You could have the heavy attacks in first person do special animations and such like how 3rd person does in Fallout 4.

Gun Recoil and Bullet Travel time

Gun recoil feels weak and lackluster make it better. Give guns the proper recoil so not everything is so easily used at level one. Make it where guns get easier to use as you select proper perks for each type of gun. Bullets should have a travel time too.

I'll throw this in but weapon repair needs to be brought back like how it was in Fallout 3 and even use some stuff from fallout 76's weapon degrade system. (armor should have it as well. Not clothing but armor.)

Settlement

Settlement building is fine for the most part in 4 and 76. No real complaints there, just wish there were more unique settlers.

Once all these gameplay overhauls would be done for just how the player character can be used. That will open the door to other options.

A proper karma system like the mod Crime and Punishment. A disguise system from fallout NV. Better written factions like those in 76. Better designed worlds like from 76. So much more. The next fallout has a lot of potential if they bring it into modern standards for triple A games.

I have a problem with this mission on xbox. Everytime I start to get close to the building and the surrounding buildings it starts to lag and the stops completely. I have tried without mods and with mods to see if it will fix the problem but it doesn't work. Can someone please help me?

I have always enjoyed the stories where things become a bit mystical in Fallout.

Cabot House, Swamp People, The Interloper, etc.

Personally, I think it would be extremely fun to play a game where you hunt down clues and what not to search for an eldritch being. It would open up so much more lore and depth to the fallout world.

Anywho, thanks for listening to the ramblings of a crazy man.

I'm trying to do the diplomatic way of getting the ghouls in T.T. but I can't find mr and Mrs wellington. Do you know where they are? I feel like I've looked everywhere. Thank you in advance

Edit: Never mind I found. I can't delete this post for some reason and I'm not sure why

I just made Hardin elder which is supposed to make it impossible to have the BoS help the NCR and I did Veronica's quest afterwards.

After that I talked to mr. House and clicked on the "NCR and BoS are friends now" option by accident.

I eventually killed mr. House and went to Yes Man to tell him that the BoS can be ignored but I can only tell him that they joined the NCR which would mark them as an enemy.I haven't done any NCR main story quests and I haven't even talked to Crocker. I also haven't spoken to any BoS members about the NCR nor have they mentioned the NCR to me.

Can anyone help me use some commands to tell Yes Man that the BoS can be ignored? I tried to reset his quest but it doesn't work. I don't have any saves from before killing mr. House either

I cant access a map location on fallout 76 page on my ps4. i could before. can sum1 please help

It makes no sense?????

A fish tank camp item would be nice I really would like that

A power armor plush bundle. It would have a plush of each power armor

A sewing machine as a armor workbench

Race car pajamas

A board game set

That's all I have for now

Welcome to the first episode of Mojave Mod Reviews! This time we’ll be looking at the Portable Tribal Tent by Masternetra. This mod adds a brand new player home in the form of a portable tent. Which is tribal themed. As it says. In the title. Of the mod.

You can acquire it at the Goodsprings General Store or the Dino De-Lite Gift Shop, available for only 1500 caps! Or free if you’re willing to steal it! I won’t judge. While in your inventory, the tent functions as a backpack giving an extra 50 pounds of carry weight, which is more than enough to offset its 25 pound weight. Now, given the size of the tent and what’s inside it, that’s probably a very generous estimate, however, it does work well in terms of balance. It’s not prohibitively heavy, and the 50 carry weight is perfectly in line with other popular backpack mods.

To activate the tent, simply drop the backpack from your inventory. Ideally, you’ll want some flat ground, but it only matters aesthetically. If you then crowch and activate the backpack, the tent will appear after an immersive tent-pitching time skip. This is the same, standard-issue tent used by the NCR, except fully furnished with two bed rolls, a campfire, lanterns, a generator, a crafting station, a rug, tapestries, storage jugs and sacks, as well as an ultra-luxurious sitting log. When you’re done, exit the tent and pack it up the same way you pitched it. The backpack will reappear in your inventory, ready to use again.

Generally, I’m very critical of portable player home mods. By providing instant access to unlimited storage, they can easily break the balance of inventory management. This one is no exception. It’s essentially a deployable, tent-shaped portal into a safe interior cell with infinite storage. However, I recognize not everyone enjoys the inventory management constraints, and this is really no worse than fast traveling to your Novac or Lucky 38 Suite. Plus, you can get a literal teleporter to a far more overpowered player home than this in Old World Blues, so… Go crazy if you like.

Personally, I mainly use the tent for sleeping and cooking every night. I only use the storage for hoarding items from DLC and worldspace mods until I can deposit them at Novac. I can also imagine another playstyle in which you use the tent as a hub, leaving it in one place as a semi-permanent player home until you’ve exhausted the region of quests. This would be most useful if you’re concerned about carry weight and think the trek back to camp is worth freeing up the slot for another backpack. Personally, I never have issues with it. I have a backpack for carrying stuff, and a companion to carry this, plus everything else. Now, if you like fast traveling everywhere, this doesn’t have much to offer you in terms of gameplay, but you may still appreciate it as a player home. You could even plop it down in The 188 for easy access to merchants.

Overall, I would highly recommend this mod. It’s highly lore friendly and immersive. It’s incredibly useful, yet balanced. Great for tribal characters, survivalists, or just any wanderer.

The mod is available on the Nexus here: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/63848

It requires the Honest Hearts DLC and the New Vegas Script Extender.

@Alejandro0822 keeps saying mean things to everyone like "if you like veronica you're a simp"
