I spent Hundreds of hours just building settlements in Fallout 4, Something about that game is just addictive
I’m this close to getting a unlimited resources mod send help
It's true for all Bethesda games
I got through the settlement tutorial as fast as I could and never looked back lol
The custom robots were also a favorite feature.
The Sim Settlements mod made me forget Fallout 4 had a story
Man, you can think whatever about Bethesda, but Fallout 4 is fun as heck. Killing enemies with a shogun in VATS never gets old.
I'll see your shotgun headshot and raise you sniping the nuke in a Super Mutant Suicider's hand while he's still standing next to his buddies... truly never gets old
Sadly it’s broken on gamepass, down to achievements not unlocking. Very disappointing that Microsoft or Bethesda won’t fix some of these issues
@@lawrencetalbot8346 🙄 I'm sure some poor underpaid bastards are working on it as we speak, don't act like they're not
Did my first play through with a double barrel and a 44. Revolver, tried chasing that New Vegas nostalgia.
@@Jerga27it's a coin toss wether someone is working on it or not 😂 Boston is still a shit show fps wise and it's been that way for almost a decade
I was not a fallout 4 fan, nor a needless difficulty fan… then survival mode dropped and it became one of my favorite Fallout experiences. Focusing on exploration, needing to pay attention to my settlements to get places to hold my stuff, memorizing bed locations and food/water changed it entirely for me to really be an experience of the end of the world
This. I liked the game before I played it on survival but once I tried it on survival THAT is how this game is meant to be experienced imo. It's challenging and it makes settlements and stuff like that matter so much more since there's no fast travel and you have to drink food and water and you can only save when you sleep in a bed. It's so much more enjoyable than any other difficulty. You have to plan your routes and actually strategize instead of just fast traveling everywhere or being able to quick save at anytime or carry 100000 rounds of ammo for that matter. All of that goes out the window...so much better I agree 10000%
Might like Dead Space.
Pro tip = you can place lightbulbs on power lines
Wait what?!?
Also, how do I get neon signs to light up?
@@chimnino: Add power conduit to building. Power line to conduit. Neon sign on building. Voila.
WHOOOAAAA
What!!!???
So something that I only recently learned that I think should be mentioned on a list like this: When hacking in FO4, if you select symbols that are paired (for example ( ) , [ ] , or < > ), it will delete an incorrect password from the list and if you select { } it will reset your attempts. I've been playing Fallout games since they released and never knew this until recently.
I did this on accident and wondered what happened. I gotta try this again. Thx
@@joshuarobin2332 I've played Fallout since 3 released and didn't know this.
Oh shit, screen shooting this
@@joshuarobin2332 I would put money down that around 50% of players don’t know about this trick.
I knew this, but I did not know that there was a specific shape that reset vs removing a dud. I thought it was random, thanks dude!
I set bath tubs down in an empty home and fill each tub with a flavor of Nuka Cola. I never sell or use the Nuka Cola I find, it goes in my tubs. I now have two houses full of tubs each filled with a specific flavor of Cola. I love this game.
Haha love that 🤣
That's awesome lol I wish it was easier to put in the fridge so it'd be a proper display
Lol I did the same thing after getting the nuka world dlc
i usually fill my bathtub with skulls. just sayin
Hold R after grabbing an item will let you throw stuff. Also Survival mode and the jank cover system results in tons of head injuries if you don't have head armor
"Might get back into Fallout 4"? Well, I never left 🙂
Same 🙃
This
How
The only reason my mods still work...I'm afraid to play another playthrough, lol.
Ditto
First time I found out about grenade vats was fallout new vegas when I vats'd a dynamite stick immediately after a powder ganger lobbed it. Quickest goodsprings showdown, ever.
Can someone explain what he means by being able to hit the grenade automatically when it lands? I know about targeting grenades but I don't understand that other part, that's new to me.
Also with targeting grenades in VATS you pretty much need to use a critical otherwise you're likely to miss the grenade in most situations. This limits the usefulness because there are usually better things to save your criticals for, especially if you can only bank one critical.
If you grow vegetables like tatos, mutfruit, corn and water you can craft vegetable starch which can be used as adhesive. You're welcome.
That was what I had settlers work for
@@evilgenius97 Same here. Get a field of them. Assign settlers and bam. Endless adhesive.
It's tatos, mutfruit and corn + water which makes vegetable starch .... Vegetable oil would not be a very good adhesive
@@JPNZ1 thank you
If you like that check my comment
A trick for easy Fat man and mini nuke: go to the weapon shop in Goodnighbour. The assultron shop keeper never seems to get agro'd buy picking up the mini nuke and fat man that spawn on the shelves behind her. Just pick em up, take em upstairs, crouch, and steal them. Keep the nuke, sell the fat man, and you get an easy guaranteed little pile of caps whenever the items respawn!
When the mayor calls them to the meeting after the first interaction, they just leave their shops open for some reason so you can just walk in a steal them as well
I've done this so many times😂 and then I sell it back to her
For an easier and earlier fat man and mini nuke go to the salvage yard near USAF station Olivia
I've been doing this for a long time or hack her and take everything 😂
Should’ve seen my face when Nick Valentine bodyslams Kellogg as he was invisible 🫥
Thanks for choosing Preston for the body slam demonstration
You can use power armor without a fusion core, you can use a dead body to carry with infinite carry weight and chop a piece of it off and carry it around
Nice!
The body idea doesn't work all that well. I've tried it before and it is only really helpful if you aren't carrying stuff for long distances. Because even if you are carrying a chunk of a body, it seems that once you carry it so far, it just despawns/disappears.
@@bloodwolfgaming9269 Get the torso not the arms/legs/head.
average Dead Money chad
Just tell your followers to pick it up it's a little annoying doing it 90 times but I've had my companion carry 5000 lbs of stuff just for fun while I'm at my 40ish I travel light
Fallout 4 is top 5 games most played on steam right now that's crazy.
I'm always surprised when I see people don't change the HUD/Pipboy color. It makes hacking and reading so much easier, and also makes your pipboy light actually useful in dark situations. Can't play with it the default green.
I changed my whole HUD to white. It just works.
I just noticed the body slam animation a couple of weeks ago when Curie (as a human) had body slammed a raider. That was the funniest thing I had seen in a while, lol!
I’ve seen stabs in the neck (I use Pickmans Blade) and also crushing Radroaches under my boot
Stab is not rare @@paulbrown6464
I saw it for the first time last night when a trapper body slammed Old Longfellow.
About the jetpack. Just get some Nuka Cola Quantum and have it quickselected. It replenishes your AP so you can just spam that and go as far as your fusion core allows.
But it can't make you go higher... It just makes you jet pack in place.
After many years from Skyrim, the bucket strikes once again. :]
Something that I didn’t learn until this year (2024), is that if you’re running low on space in a settlement and want to build more, drop weapons from your inventory, then enter workshop mode and store the dropped weapons. This counts as removing something from the settlement, and you can take your weapons back from the workshop and repeat this trick infinitely to allow more things to be built. The bigger weapons like miniguns free up more settlement building space, but every weapon can contribute to this trick.
I was not ready for the moving a car with a dead body strat 😂
I knew everything but that
I've done it before, I forget why now, but I wanted more cars in a settlement (probably Starlight Drive-in). Mannequins work better, they don't flop around.
@@evilbob840 all serial killers already know this Edit: i am not a murderer
@@Munenushi Ooof course you're not, sweetie! ...You're a *_Serial Killer_* ! *Big* difference in commitment, there! You went ALL IN! That's a lot of effort! Good on you!

You can actually use *any* grabbed object to move any heavy object. It doesn't have to be a corpse. It can be a tin can. Or a weapon you dropped and grabbed. Rifles are good because they are long and pointy.
You missed one more but first. There is another settlement that needs our help. Here I’ll mark it on your map!
I'm 30 hours into my latest bout of Fallout 4, that in addition to the 140 hours I played back at launch. I'm addicted and I hate it but I love it. I never thought I would get back into Fallout 4. I wish so bad Startfield would have just been Fallout 5 fk. Such a missed opportunity.
Agreed. I don't know how anyone thought that "exploring thousands of desolate procedurally generated planets" would be a fun experience... It sounds cool until you think about it for more then 30 seconds. No thanks. I'll take a smaller detailed and handcrafted world over that crap.
Fuck starfield
The 3rd person takedown animations were something that I was sure was going to be in Starfield and when they weren't I was pissed. Starfield just disappointed me in the melee department. And no gore and dismemberment. WTF
Bethesda's plan to make their games "more accessible" to people who weren't already fans and get younger kids involved I guess 🤷♂️ Starfield has its merits, but it's a watered down version of what we all expected as you said. Hopefully console mods will change it for those of us that aren't of the "PC Master Race" 😂
both FO4 and starfield disappointed me in the melee department, i mean hell they did melee so right in skyrim and they couldn't replicate the same thing in FO4? like picture this for a second, you are holding a pistol in your right hand and holding some kind of shield in your left hand, and both can be used simultaneously, but no, it's simply not possible in either game, and they both use the same ass animation for the blocking mechanic, it's so dumb. how did they make skyrim so much better for both options? like they could make it an option in how the gun functioned, like put in some kind of flag that allows blocking with the left trigger and you can also aim at the same time depending on what kind of shield your using, i suppose the only thing that might not look good is the reload animation, but who cares when they never make legs in first person in their games anyhow?
Starfield disappointed on every level
@@nunyabizness6376 It's disappointingly bland, despite its potential to be the actual Fallout IN SPACE.
Starfield disappointed in a lot of departments. Howard is still having cognitive dissonance over it.
I loved the idea of having your own faction but hated feeling like the only dude in the whole faction lol. Really wish you could send squads out to some of the settlement defense events to save some time. I'm still playing fallout 3 on the verge of battling the mutant scourge
If you are near use minuteman flare fir reinforcement. Also i like to send my provisioners along 5he same line, patrolling it.
I made a point of collecting all the powerarmer I could. Never used it in the game, just showcased it at base. It was fun working out ways to steal it. Oh I also did the same with Nuka Cola
The nuka cola is actually pretty useful if you use the mixer.
Yup I've got a power armor museum with every paint job I've collected
I did the same thing with power armor. Due to an irrational aversion to repetitive maintenance chores, the extra hassle of needing to worry about replacing power cores and also keeping them repaired meant they ended up feeling like more trouble than the added defense and tiny jetpack spurts was worth. If a game wants me to choose the option that needs more maintenance and thought applied, the benefits need to be higher than that. (Same reason I so rarely use temporary, manually activated buffs in most any games. I get so tired of reactivating them over and over, and having to keep whether or not they've expired yet in mind.) Also, the added power armor sound effects add to the big bulky walking tank vibe, but they also get old pretty fast. And I prefer the non-armor HUD too.
@@Alloveck hit the nail on the head, exactly my reasons
I didn't use it til level 20 by that point i had like 15 fusion cores so i didn't have to worry about running out for a long while
The body slam alone is convincing me to run it back
Same
There are more animations than that, it even depends on what weapon you have
I was able to do the animation on my ps5 controller . My character snsps the npcs neck.
Bloodbug near red rocket killed me and triggered an animation where it pierced my body with it's needle head scared tf outta 😮
The only mechanic that got me to play again was survival mode
Its the only real way to play fallout
the stealing trick is hilarious but lets be real, the game swamps you in resources anyway, never quite felt like I want or need to steal something.
Yeah and there's no place where it's like an absolute crapton of currency like that one place in starfield where the trick is really useful.
Just a random idea I had: you guys should do like a "10 longest cutscenes in games". I'm sure there are games with long ass cutscenes.
Metal gear solid 4
Pretty sure they’ve done that
@@georgesilva6165 I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but I couldn't find it. The closest I found were "10 worst scenes in games".
Metal Gear Solid 4's final cutscene is north of 30 mins easily.
this is a great idea
Thank you, Jake! I just started my I don’t even know what play through and I’m a good 10 hours in. Enjoying the game more than I ever have and having a blast. The fallout games have always been my favorite. Seeing this huge resurgence and fallout is literally amazing.
I just recently started replaying Fallout 4 VR with some quality of life mods and man, I don't know if I just don't remember the game well or genuinely missed a ton, but I'm realizing so many little details and hidden items and interesting characters now that I couldn't recall. I enjoyed it way back then, but it's a better game than I think I gave it credit for
Number one should be Power Armor, They made it so fun in Fallout 4
Specially when you get the jet attachment! Also, no training required to use it, just a good ol fusion core
It's so much better aswell unlike the one in 76 that has a bugged animation when getting into the frame.
FO4 has aged surprisingly well. Then there are the mods, one being that switches to FP when equipping a firearm, and staying or switching back to 3rd when holstering a firearm or equipping a melee weapon.
note about the difficulty thing, if you play on survival mode it actually is a Witcher scenario. you and your enemies do enhanced damage!
If you don't have a Corpse handy, cars can also usually be pushed with a pipe rifle.
I am thankful that 6:55 got left in.
A known trick, but maybe someone hasn't heard it yet: you can carry unlimited weight. Instead of giving the items to your companion, just command them to pick it up from the ground/container. This way they can carry an unlimited amount of items. Very useful on survival mode.
Absolutely 💯
Friend, you have just saved me SO much time. I just started playing survival recently and the low carry weight really hurts. Thank you!
@@brandonoflight8274 I'm also playing on Survival and that's how I discovered this trick. I'm glad to have helped you friend! :)
You can also carry a torso around, it shouldn't despawn. Its not gonna work going through loading zones but at least you can carry stuff around for a while. Limbs don't really work, its gotta be a torso
Using the fetch trick with companions there is a risk it will glitch out and their entire inventory is permanently lost. So don't do it with anything too valuable or unique.
If you are fast enough, you can grab the cooking station from the church outside of your settlement area at Jamaica Plain and place it within the boundary before the workshop mode times out. Then when you restart workshop mode, you can place it anywhere in the settlement that you like. So far, it is the only crafting station that I have found that is close enough to a settlement border to do this.
Perfect timing because I just started playing it for the FIRST time :D
👍
Welcome to the club lol. I hope you're enjoying it 😊
I recently went back to Fallout 4. 72 hrs into this new playthrough and it took this video for me to realize that you can peek out of cover lol
9 years and probs almost 1000 hours and i never knew about the cover or the melee animations lol
Just started watching the new show. So glad it's actually good!
Definitely hoping they continue with another season. Burned through season 1 pretty fast.
Stealing power cores and stealing from shops with the basket trick had me laughing my ass off. Definitely gonna give those a go
Great tips, but wrong on one. If you hold over an object you want to steal, press X or whatever, you can hold the object, take it to any place near by that is isolated, drop and pick up to your inventory. If no one sees it you are fine. I always steal the Nuka Cola from the robot in Diamond City and the mini nuke from the robot vendor in Good Neighbor! I pick up the nuke and take it around to the alley ,drop and pick up. Even works on the vendor on board the Pryden. Once you pick the lock on his door you can slowly rob the.place , if you put a bucket on hid head, harder than it sounds, you can also get a way with anything.
Missile turrets can be placed really high using multiple sets of wooden stairs and when you're done powering them up you can delete the stairs and the section of floor that they are placed on. That gives you turrets that have 360-degree fields of fire, that can shoot downwards if they have to without damaging themselves. I call them "missile kites".
No way there’s jet packs💀 how the he’ll did I never know this?
You need it to get the armor that eliminates all fall damage.
😭 did a whole playthrough without knowing about jetpacks. I'm going back in just for that.
Probably because power armour is nearly pointless in F4?
@@mujariwa3696 You need to reach like lv60 to unlock the right perks for it.
The power attack button is activated by holding the right trigger (or R2) when unarmed or with a melee weapon. It was a nice tip but with two extra seconds you could have given the complete information. I personally like to aim for the grenades on the suicidal mutants.
But, can you hold down the button twice? It might be too slow to make it work having g to hold the button twice instead of tapping a button key twice. I'm going to try it.
You totally missed the point lol
The grab\steal mechanic is absolutely awesome! Probably pretty annoying to do sometimes, but awesome nonetheless. Just taught me that one👍
2:20 - _Bang!_ I love that the demonstration of the cover system also includes the typical outcome of trying to use it: namely the shot hitting the incredibly sloppy collision box of the thing you're taking cover behind, right in front of your face, even though the barrel of the gun is shown _inarguably_ clear of the obstacle, with a clear line of sight to the target.
The animations are what makes melee combat so satisfying in Fallout 4. Is it perfect? No, obviously it's not a fighting game lol but melee in this game is especially brutal
Nice tips! Didn't know these, but I knew it is possible to make the companions carry more then their carrying capacity by make them pick itens for you. That fearure is present in Skyrim too
1800ish hours in FO4 and had no idea about the cover system. FPS games aren't my usual genre, so I never even thought to try.
I had an interesting one the other day. Just got back into it and started playing Survival. And I have dog meat as a companion. I don't know what set it off, but dog meat started to have a sneezing fit at first, though. It was a glitch, but no dog meat can have sneezing fits at times.
new gameranx upload, its a good morning
Here's something that won't get you back into Fallout 4. All the mods are BROKEN!
The only problem that doesn’t make the cover system work that well is that anything that fires a bullet is a hitscan weapon in Fallout 4 and guaranteed to hit as long as you’re within sight line. Plasma, Fatman, Grenades, Mines, Missiles, Molotovs, Railway Spike Launcher, Flamethrower Launcher and Junk Jet are projectiles with travel time that it might help with but if my recent playthrough is any indication, it’s negligible at best. I’m unsure what category Lasers fall into though, cause it seems like there’s travel time, but I could be wrong.
Running Bloodied builds on FO76 taught me very well about the Ghoul-Boy. I saw it so often that I actually got caught off guard to see his regular face when I started a new FO4 play through.
Wait what if I'm already playing again? Will watching this video make me stop?
"10s or 100s of hours .." Rookie numbers. :D
Slight correction to something you said about the difficulty levels. You said it’s not like the Witcher where higher difficulties won’t make you and your enemies more lethal. That’s actually not true. In survival difficulty that is the case actually.
you can duplicate your materials at your settlement workshop, just transfer the chosen material to your inventory, drop it on the floor and then, in build mode quickly press scrap and store (on PS5: quickly slide your thumb from square to circle, holding circle to scrap the item, and letting go to store the item) and you'll find you've doubled the materials you originally had
Once I start killing everything in a few shots after level 15 I forgot most of these existed
Switch up difficulty
Play on survival mode
@@henryhaskin9012 I considered survival mode for my first playthrough. Only thing that put me off was that hunger and thirst thing. Does it get in the way much? Coz I'd like to give survival a go.
@@mujariwa3696 In my opinion, Survival is great because it makes a lot of features in the base game actually useful. Most people don't really build settlements outside of the times you need to for quests/missions. But in Survival Mode, no only is Fast Travel disabled (unless you use a Vertibird) but you can only save your game if you sleep in a bed. Plus your settlements can provide you with sources of food/water which will be a necessity in Survival Mode. Also...most people don't seem to really worry all that much about cooking in the base game. But in Survival Mode, it becomes crucial in helping remove rads from some of the food as well as providing helpful buffs. Another neat trick that is in Survival Mode that isn't in the base game, is that you can take empty bottles and refill them at any water source. If you fill them up in a puddle, it gives you Dirty Water but if you refill them at one of your water pumps in your settlements, it gives you Purified Water.
@@bloodwolfgaming9269 Ngl that sounds fun. Seems like a whole different game in Survival Mode. Any builds that you'd recommend?
Not sure if you done this yet. At the base right, if you dress the survivors in different outfits like A chef, Military, and other outfits in the wasteland. It changes their dialogue and they play the part..
How do you get them to wear different outfits?
@@mtnman8783 Settlers in your settlement can be equipped with weapons, armor, clothing, etc. Just talk to them & initiate the trade option.
Preston is gunna be wearing a dress~
Wait what? That's not true
pretty sure this isnt true, maybe a mod?
I will never apologise for 4 being my fave fallout the amount of fun I have playing it is unreal Weapon modding build crafting settlement fun the quest designs exploration its always a good time
For #2 - If you turn up the difficulty to very hard before you enter another zone, then enter the zone. You can then turn down the difficulty and your immediate vicinity will still have the higher legendary chance, because spawning has already been determined.
You forgot the hidden mechanic where it crashes in half the map on console still.
Just reached level 40 on PS5 and its crashed 3 times
i've played hundreds of hours without using the V.a.t.s system at all. so the grenade thing is pretty dope.
My first playthrough I wasn't paying attention for the brief VATs tutorial so never knew it was there & therefore never used it
@@tomh3627bruh it's fallout how did you not know
@@pieprincess5778 because you may not play the first few games and are a serious fps player and don't need no gaming aid what so ever. unlike some ppl .
@@blueguy09 how do you go into 4 not knowing vats doe , I didn't even know what it was called but I had seen hundreds of fallout 3 and nv clips , also vats isn't really aid , maybe in 4 cause that one's more of a shooter than an actual fallout game
@@pieprincess5778 i didn't watch clips or trailers of games, still don't. vats is an aid.
If carrying Power Armor parts/pieces overcumbers you, you can shoot these parts while still attached on a power armor base frame, reducing their condition to zero. Zero Power armor parts/pieces have no weight. However, you can't directly mount a zero conditioned parts. To use or mount these again to a base frame, just repair it to a power armor station. Tried this technique to distribute my power armors conveniently throughout my settlements in Survival Mode.
I thankfully knew about the Cover system (Number 9) back when Fallout 4 came out. It was early on as well, since I was trying to aim as I was about to move a corner. It has a VERY forgiving trigger box/hitbox for where it activates. The fusion core trick is basically a hold-over from Briarhearts I think.
The most fun I have had with this game was when it first came out on console there was a glitch that allowed you to max out your stats at the beginning of the game, the thing about it that I enjoyed the most was that I could VATS someone from across the map with pretty much any weapon, my favorite weapon was a big boy and it had mirv so I would shoot 12 nuka nukes at enemies I couldnt even see from across the map.
The max stats glitch still works
@@iNiquity... Hell yeah. Bethesda games always have some kind of glitch that lets you max your stats, I did the same thing in skyrim, I dont think a lot of people find it fun to play like that but I think its the best way to play a bethesda game.
@@rectangleman4392 I'm also glad they allow it
For all those anti BOS simps, railroad actually planned to attack them first if you pay attention
Railroad : try to save robots and give them rights BOS : Save technology and humanity
@@ansatsu23only in Fallout 3. That was a splinter faction disobeying direct orders and the core principles of the organization. The actual Brotherhood only believes in saving humanity by hoarding all advanced technology for themselves.
I been playing FO4 in PC since release and is so modded you even wouldn´t recognize it, yet I didn´t know about the Power Attack double tap.
Right, There's no mechanic for clearing the "stolen" tag from power armor suits. Every time you get in to it, or remove an armor piece/fusion core, it technically counts as stealing, so if there's a companion around (or alot say at a settlement or something) they will ALL respond to the theft accordingly...
Take the armor plates of the power suit and dump the skeleton rig. I'm lvl 20-ish and already got 5 power armor suits without trying. 1 was stolen but I just took the armor plates from it
- Scrapping things manually from the floor in your settlement, guns, tires whatever lowers the building size of your settlment. Placing them their doesn't raise the size though, so it's a pretty neat trick to get past the size cap. Doesn't work from the workbench though or with grab, you have to manually place it from your inventory. - Setting the difficulty to very hard before entering a building (loading screen) then lowering it once you are inside keeps the loot and spawn of monsters you'd have gotten from very hard but in an easier fashion. It gets calculated during the loading screen so the speak and not when you raise or lower the diffulty. So when you leave a building, set it to very hard and back down after loading screen and the entire outside world works this way. They still haven't fixed that in their engine as of Starfield lol.
Ok, u got me. The body slam is 1 I had never figured out. Now I'm asking myself, HOW did I not figure that out!! Great vid! Well done Sir
I only ever thought to drag bodies out of settlements...dragging items INTO the settlements to scrap. tremendous! thanks!
A reason lots of folk don't know about the cover system is because it just doesn't exist in third person, for reasons I can't comprehend. The animation is there, enemies do it, but nope, only in first person.
Chameleon Deathclaws are pretty cool. It seems in an earlier version they were invisible. And if you stood near them hidden they would change back and forth. I remember the one outside Virgil's cave on my save was chameleon variant when I kept having to visit during the story nissions
Almost didnt watch this because I thought I knew everything about Fallout 4 after all my years playing it. Manually triggering body slam, literally the first mention, this really is a game that keeps on giving. ❤️
I started playing a new game again as soon as I finished the show, and since this is my 3rd time, I decided to use glitches (like the duplication glitch), console commands and mods to really have unlimited fun building my settlements this time.
Alternatively, even if your sided with BoS, just make sure you’re [hidden] and you can crit the fusion core, causing a massive explosion, and a few moments after the knight will leave the suit of Armor. Simply pick him off or wait for him to walk away and it’s yours. Just make sure to have a couple cores on you at all times. I’m a survival player and 2 should be enough to walk most of the most of the map. Walk. Not “drive it like it’s a shopping cart” lol.
That scrap one is freaking brilliant. My mad bomber is running out of steel.
😁awesome set of hint! i've been playing for years, and never knew most of them! well done, and thank you!!!!👏👍
I’ve actually noticed that the deathclaws don’t do their grab attack if you’re in third person view! Very helpful if you somehow manage to get swarmed by thirty at once.
The coolest one I found exists across all FO games in the Hacking mini game. There are hidden pieces of code that when you highlight and select it will either A) Remove a wrong choice, or B) replenish your attempts back to 4.
I've played well over 1000 hours of Fallout 4, thanks to the modding community, and never knew about this. It's a much better tip than anything in this video, which mainly covered exploits rather than features anyway, and I'm definitely going to make use of this. Cheers
@@MrMarcusIndialol I had played FO3 and New Vegas several times before I found it. I went back and checked and yes it's in those games as well. Look for random strings surrounded by any kind of bracket. ( ) , { }, , ect... sometimes there's be a secret code embedded in a secret code. And it can be two characters long or several. But they will always be surrounded by one of the bracket types.
What good timing! This is the next game on my list to play. Just finished Witcher 3 for the second time and got that platinum.
I'm not sure if it's available on console, but Sim Settlements 2 is one of the greatest mods ever made. It's a must install mod every time I return to Fallout 4
Wow!, i’m new to playing Fallout . Didn’t know you could even pick up dead bodies . I gave a settlement with a few . The grabbing stuff from outside the border is very useful. Than you great tips .
Another thing to note about scrapping dropped or grabbed items like that in your settlements is that it causes your build limit to plummet. The easiest way to do it is find a bunch of weapons you won't use and drop them in the almost maxed out settlement and bam your no longer at the build limit.
Not sure what game they're playing at Gameranx but in fallout 4 you can 100% move stuff by hand without it being considered stealing.
Picking up items and putting them in a settlement to scrap is the best thing I got out of this video. Thank you.
Just got platinum trophy . was really fun coming back to this game and exploring the Commonwealth again
That’s awesome about the chameleon deathclaws actually being like chameleons, had no idea because they’d either be in the glowing sea usually or I’d blast them so quickly I’d only see them be yellow and green
about number 6 you can also just shoot the Fusion core on the back of power Armor in v.a.t.s but you won't get but a Fusion core but npc will get out of the power armor /power frame all that need will is a replacement core. safer then trying to steal a core from "metal murder man" / someone wearing power armor.
I don't know how many hours it took me to realize there was cover in the game, but I'm so grateful I did and I'm glad you put this is there for anyone who missed it 😂 By contrast, I don't think I ever threw a grenade in fallout 4 and don't know how despite hundreds of hours.
New vegas the Merc store where you have to be a guards man. I rinsed that place clean with the grab function. Quick way to be armed early on. Love these games.
Very good list. I may have known more of this with my hundreds of hours hundreds of years ago when it came out but I didn't remember any of this 🎉🎉
Back again and Holy Crit I did not know about the cover system for fucking years I've griped about FO not having a proper cover system.. Well I will be using this going forward.
Another tip when it comes to VATSing grenades is they don't even have to be your own grenades. If you are fast enough with your VATS, you can target grenades in enemy hands and shoot them to blow them up before the enemy gets the chance to throw them at you. Been something you've been able to do since Fallout 3. Another tip in relation to Deathclaws: You can get them, and many other creatures to defend your settlements. Though it requires the right perks to do so. For the Deathclaws specifically, I believe you need to have some ranks in the Wasteland Whisperer perk which allows you to attempt to pacify/command creatures like Deathclaws while aiming at them. Then you just need to build the Deathclaw cages/traps in your settlements. And if you have the right perks, you can also build these Sonic Emitter structures around your settlements that will pacify the hostile creatures you capture in the cages. If done correctly, you can let the creatures out of their cages and they will just wander around your settlements as nonhostile creatures. Not only that, but they add to your settlements Defense stat and will help defend your settlement if it gets attacked. Be warned though, if you do this with certain creatures like Deathclaws...it increases the chances of having wild Deathclaws to attack that settlement.
I remember having deathclaws defending sanctuary for me. I must have had 25 deathclaws and about 20 cats. Unfortunately, between the deathclaws, the cats, and all my settlers, it started to make the screen go all choppy and stutter.
LOVE how you snuck ITYSL in there
Ive been playing with the settlement building since launch, and i never considered scrapping the stuff thats outside the zone limit that one was very neat
OOh thanks for the tip!! I will play survival a bit so I can get my charima up before any more quests.
