on the subject of the ui, I know it's a few pages late but it's not a case of them being really simple on tradition- ui design is just moving towards simpler designs now I have a class and a project on UI design and we're being pushed to do spatial/diagetic interfaces and drop 2d as much as possible, it's just the way interfaces are going. It's not going to always work so certain genres are going to hold onto 2d stuff forever, but they're going to keep getting more streamlined and simple as long as you're looking at mainstream developers. Thankfully in easily modded games we can fix that

A simplified UI is preferable to me, but as I've repeated before, like some sort of bipedal broken record, not when it inhibits fun and function.

[QUOTE=Rudevinny;49177349]Aside from people being able to take cover and hit you with their gats, I don't see how Fallout 4 improved the gunplay. It's definitely not revolutionary enough to make up for the lack of good story and dialogue.[/QUOTE] Animations, sound and general feedback when shooting at things is much better, both for the guns and enemy reactions, even though its nearly identical mechanically they've made it feel much better this time around.

Is it me, or is the game a bit on the unoptimized side? My specs are good and I usually don't blast the settings [I]all[/I] the way up there (and the game doesn't look that much better even if I do). I can be roaming the city, pick up my view from looking at the ground, then get GTA 4 syndrome by just looking at a wall sometimes.

The game can (and will) tank to 20 fps on a GTX Titan if it feels like it. The latest beta patch has resolved some of the framerate issues in the wilderness for me but boston is still a mess due to the constant framerate fluctuation and drops to 20 fps by just looking at a wall. Regardless of settings, it'll still happen, with the exact same drops of the exact same magnitude.

So if you go to a location early in the game or pass close by it and it spawns the PA whilst you are low level, it doesn't change when you go back to the place at a high level because you already triggered the spawn at low level. Seems to be around level 28+ that X-01's can spawn. I'm 31 on my new char and managed to find two X-01's in places where I last found T-60's on my previous character due to level difference when I went to those places. Plus I think even with higher levels there is still some RNG at play for what spawns. I just think X-01 chances are higher when you are a higher level.
Since you have a higher chance of dropping legendaries on harder difficulties maybe you also have a higher chance of dropping good PA sets ?

Salem spoilers [sp]that reward you get at the end is pretty lousy tbh. It's just a hunting rifle with a recon scope.[/sp] Is the Deliverer the only weapon in the game with a unique model?

I believe so.

Not sure if spoiler but... [sp]I'm presuming that the Eddie Winter holotapes are related to Nick Valentine's companion quest? I've found 9 of them. Can't make any sense of it at the moment. Nick doesn't say anything about them either.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Del91;49177366]The fuck, Im 32 and all I find is half sets, of the same pieces, of t60[/QUOTE] I have 5 full sets of t60, 2 sets of t-45 and 3 t-51 parts (torso, left arm and right leg) :v: [editline]24th November 2015[/editline] and that full set of X-01 now
I always run into Trashcan Carla on my way, and she's always in trouble fighting some raiders, I saved her so many times, she better give me a good discount.

[QUOTE=Aide;49177490]So only arm your guards.[/QUOTE] I have, that's the surplus
Has anyone got performance improvements with beta patch?
[QUOTE=Drk;49176868]Not in a million years. Talking about that : i still don't understand how anyone can go back to the old FNV gunplay after playing FO4. Beyond me. To each his own i guess.[/QUOTE] Really if you can't bring yourself to play great games from a few years ago because you've played something more modern then you're missing out.
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;49177374]Even New Vegas had a bunch to be honest, it's like a rule when you make gamebryo titles :v:[/QUOTE] It doesn't really count when you actually can kill them, though.
[QUOTE=ThatCrazyGmanV2;49177249]also [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/644374753326746722/ED84CE84EB2BAD355DB6F5B665C76E833B834953/[/t][/QUOTE] He looks like the mayor of Junktown from the first Fallout.
[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;49177605]Really if you can't bring yourself to play great games from a few years ago because you've played something more modern then you're missing out.[/QUOTE] The actual gameplay of those games has been rendered outdated with the release of Fallout 4, in my eyes. Fallout 4 is definitely a weaker RPG than 3 and New Vegas, but I feel it's the better video game. Not disagreeing with you, Bread. I do agree that you're missing out if you don't play the earlier games, it's just incredibly hard to do so now.
[QUOTE=Grindigo;49177479]I always run into Trashcan Carla on my way, and she's always in trouble fighting some raiders, I saved her so many times, she better give me a good discount.[/QUOTE] Trashcan Carla has glitched for me, after I robbed her in my settlement she won't leave. BUT I can find her wondering around various parts of the Commonwealth, If i fast travel back to Sanctuary, she will still be in the same spot where I mugged her.
