[QUOTE=gbtygfvyg;49168663]So I was on one of the highways and some Gunners started attacking me and then out of fucking nowhere some death ray hit me and I died instantly. What the fuck was that? I wish I recorded it but it wasn't a laser weapon unless there's one that's just 1 continuous beam.[/QUOTE]
Probably an Assaultron, I haven't seen them do that at range but according to the tooltips they have a built-in fuck you laser

Railroad/BoS spoilers
[sp]i go to the Railroad HQ to give the doctor back his prototype. Desdemona holds a meeting in the center of the room to address that the Prydwen has just rolled into town, and that the Brotherhood of Steel plan on exterminating all synths. She tells us they should be considered absolute enemies.
so i turn to Paladin Danse and ask for his thoughts. he tells me my instincts are good and to lead on.[/sp]
like come the fuck on?
[QUOTE=Unique_mask;49167985]Ending spoilers [sp] Well the institute ending can fuck off, it's the least climatic ending I've seen in any game, at least with Railroad you nuke the place. [/sp][/QUOTE]
There could very well be more to it, but for me Allie is just stuck in a loop where she talks about [sp]Shaun's death and how awful it is, and since you're the new director you get his quarters.[/sp]
[sp]speaking of bethesda.. on the railroad main quest, there is this double agent in the institute codenamed "patriot". he wants to free the synths but doesn't wanna kill the scientists.[/sp]
[sp]well the game forces you to fucking blow their HQ up at the end. afterwards, he commits suicide and blames everything on you. what the fuck, how was it my fault? the quest forced me to nuke the damn place[/sp]

[QUOTE=TalonAran;49168547]I was on bufftats and psycho. I use chems a lot more with this character because I have the perk that makes me immune to chem addiction.[/QUOTE]
Oh yeah, chems are nuts with that. You can end up damn near invincible and one shot everything with melee.
I wish the power armor pip boy was less... awful. Hope somebody makes the mod it just basically make it the normal pipboy hud without the arm.
man this game sure does involve some pretty brutal combat

Kinda pissed even with the more armor slots mod you can't use gas masks with combat armor helmets

So are there any unarmed kill animations when you're wearing Power ARmor?
I swear there are less and less people alive here every time I walk by:

Yes, that is a crashed vertibird on the roof, and yes, Brother Whatshisface is still sitting in his chair.

[sp]The main reason I didn't like the Railroad was because they basically destroy all the knowledge and technology in the Institute instead of taking it for the benefit of the Wasteland. Pretty dumb.[/sp]

[sp]Yep, it's pretty dumb. Even for the other factions, the Institute's technology would be very helpful. I guess Beth wanted the obligatory "nuke something" quest.[/sp]

[sp] a lot of the ending conflicts don't make sense. BoS has no reason to want to literally nuke the institute, neither does the railroad. the railroad should be able to be talked out of destroying the brotherhood and vice versa. on top of that, the minutemen ending should have no forced faction genocide, but i guess beth needed to give us some final mission, and designing three 'kill the faction' quests and using them interchangeably was probably easier. [/sp]
I finally got past Preston being a cunt (by going back several hours in saves god dammit) and beat the Minutemen ending.
And wow did that feel unsatisfying.
Also while the writing is better than Fallout 3 and it overall is better, not being one single line and all, I'd say that beating Fallout 3 felt a thousand times more rewarding. Like seriously [sp]yay you blew the fuck out of the Institute... and all I really got out of it was a really lame cinematic and robo-Shaun. Not to mention the final confrontation with actual human-bean Shaun was so goddamn weak. I knew he was dying because terminals and some epic foreshadowing, but it still came right outta fucking nowhere, and all he has to say is "man you suck but you do what you gotta do aight leave me alone"[/sp]
Like come on Bethesda even you have to be able to do better. I genuinely feel worse for beating it.
I actually feel like I really need to do something that feels rewarding. Like watching a good movie or finishing a good game.
Why do FO1 enemies sometimes just ignore getting shot in the face and not aggro?

I wondered about this because the minutemen should have been a much less annoying yes man ending since you are in charge of the minutemen

Why do they treat me like a commoner? Fuck you static AI.
I hate all of the possible endings. Where's the option to side with Goodneighbor and create an army of misfits and mutants with Hancock and stay chilling in your own little side of Boston?

[sp]Ya I was having a tough time beating the game out of sheer boredom after discovering the majority of locations and realising that there were very few interesting locations with actual mini stories to go with them, but the ending was the icing on the cake for me.
The game has a lot going for it such as the vastly improved overall gameplay, the environment is definitely more varied and interesting, and I actually like the new dialogue system, but the main story was super flat and has complete soiled my overall opinion on the game.
I dunno if it matters, but I went the route of the Brotherhood of Steel and although I really liked what they did with the Brotherhood in this, and the game actually allowed you to step your foot down at times without any repercussions when I disagreed with Maxson, I thought their actual ending was incredibly dumb.[/sp]
