Benevolent Leader achievement driving me up the wall nearly a whole evening wasted to it, and happiness is still sat at 88 :mad:

Have everything I need, as far as I know. 4 on food , rest assigned to T3 shops 7 clinics, 1 clothing, 4 food, 4 traders.

Beds for all , defence is 115, made sure it was a large settlement (the bar goes from green to yellow on the top right when it's considered large)

Food and water at 30.

It seems to slow down once you get to the high 80s. Try sleeping for 48 hours then pull up the settlement menu and once it goes up a point repeat.

Can you store all the stuff in the "My Mods" section, and will they still stay on your guns? All the mods in my inventory add about 40 weight for me.

Put them in storage, the stuff in the my mods tabs is the stuff that's not on your guns.

Up to 92 now

This game is hilarious and random some times. I was talking to someone and I swear in the corner of the screen Dogmeat appeared chewing on a teddy bear, but when I looked down he was sitting there as if nothing happened.

I also found two identical men called Art shooting each other in the street. I am assuming synth shenanigans.

if ye give dogmeat a teddy - he rips it up like that too

Lol thought it was a glitch for me. I have it captured on game dvr on the xbone. Il upload it tomorrow. I waited for one to kill the other then stole the dead guys loot

Psycho is my drug of choice. I take it sometimes just to hear the character go "Raaargh!"

Anyone else miss the repair function!?

That incident turned me against the institute. Sending out synths to kill people and 'replace' them.

Was that two guys in a petrol station ? I came across them early on in the game and had a chat with them. Ended up deciding the human and the two of us killed the other one.

The human guy took off and as I was following him stupid feckers stood on a mine and blew us both up.

I hadn't saved in over an hour

Anybody else disappointed by the ending? I really enjoyed the game but I feel it lacked the depth I thought it would have.

Yep, liked the way you had to maintain your weapons in fallout of old.

Same, loved stripping the dead after a fight and using it to fix up all my gear, satisfying ratchet noise every time, I don't really feel as attached to my gear in this one without having to look after it.

A line in a review I saw summed it up nicely for me, "wide as an ocean deep as a puddle"

Once the exploration was done in my game and I focused on the main story I wanted to be done with it, the factions were terrible and I found it hard to sympathise with any of them mostly because we were given very little to sympathise with, it was a case of "we hate those guys, go get them" and that was pretty much it.

Oh one thing I almost missed post game was a quest back at

diamond city

involving

the guard and the mayor

. I also had to reload to before the final mission as I forgot to get the

Serum for virgil

Pickman is a very interesting character. Found his calling card and made Hancock's mission sound a lit more enticing.

Does Strong have a personal quest you can unlock? Just asking as he dislikes EVERYTHING I do. It's gas really.

Have a great collection of unique weapons I'll never use, I'd love to be able to hang them on a wall for display.

He likes when you eat corpses and shoot none hostiles

Finished the main story and ...

meh.. I mean.. it was a little underwhelming.

Anyone else feel the same?

I couldn't resist, picked this up today

Any suggestions on what I should use my 1st few Special Points for?

I know that usually some of the Tier 1 stuff ends up being handy no matter your play style

There's a glitch where you can get special to all 10 if you want.

For those talking about the two Arts, I have the count up to five now.

By interesting you mean nuts right?

And you can use the workshop to display stuff on shelves and the like. Its clunky business though.

Strong is in a settlement by his lonesome for that reason because I feel he will snap and eat everyone in Sanctuary Hills.

Yup, that's a perfect line for Bethesda games. That's why I never got in to oblivion or skyrim. Still played all fallout games, but only because I love fallout series since fallout 1 and I am a sucker for the fallout universe.

I always said this.
Skyrim is like McDonald's - it's food, there is a lot of it, but it's plain and still "fast food" tossed by teeneager.
Witcher: is like well cooked t-bone steak. There is not much of it,but it's full of flavour and awesome.

They made all 3 factions in a way, that you find really good parts about it, but they are still made to do dickhead decisions. The while idea behind it to make player feel bad and kind of have no choice. I did all 3 endings and they all sucked.


I haven't played much now as I am on holidays and spending time with misses, but I was on my last achievement. That damn leader one with 100% happiness.
I still can't get settlement to go to large, even with so much stuff in it and with 20 people.
Due to stupid way settlement works, you have to be in settlement for it to go happy. I just left it overnight with controller tossed on the side so my character would be in constant movement. ( rubbing a wall lol) managed to get 94happiness and it started to go down for some reason... **** this achievement.

I see nothing wrong with Pickman, doing the Commonwealth a service in my eyes. Yeah i had a few nuka cola's and bobble heads paced on same tables but they keep falling through the furniture. Strong is gas walking around Sanctuary. "Too many humans. ..not enough supermutants"

I got the castle a while a go, thanks for the fatman tip, very underwhelming mission. Think I'll make it my new hq though and send everyone i can there.

Also i randomly found the ss constitution. What a class quest and epic ending.

SS constitution was the only quest that was properly fun and with fallout humour in it.

It was the last one I did. My set up in the end was 7 T3 Clinics, 1 T3 clothing, 4 T3 Food, 4 T3 General stores. food and water was 25 , defence was purely turrents at 150 defence and places around the shops area. Works out at about 12600 cap if I recall for the shops.

I had 21 people. Sent all companions away.So only had settlers there. Made sure everyone was assigned to a shop , rest on food. Beds for all and all assigned. Build 2 new buildings. After that I just put paintings on every wall I could and set about a cycle of sleep/wait 48 hours , buy something in the stores and sleep again.

I ended up putting down some other things like , bell , scrapping station, 1 of each of the workbenchs etc as it got stuck at 96 on me for ages. Started moving again once I did that.

When I got to 99 it popped after 10 minutes of standing around.

To get it to be large, bar turns yellow on the top right of workshop interface I had to lay down about 100 or so storage boxes.

If it went down on you, check the shops, water pump and food etc. to see if they need repairs , you may have been attacked. This happened to me. Also it's recommended my many of the guide to not leave once you begin the process of trying to boost happiness. Not sure if thats important, and that you shouldn't have a trade route set up there as that counts as one settler you can't use or assign to a shop I think.

Just regarding the ending.

I sided with the Initiate against the Brotherhood, so avoid the next spoiler if you don't want to know what happens there.

and what sucked was that it was essentially a rehashing of Fallout 3. I mean, Liberty Prime? Surely they could have come up with a better ending than that. And then when Father died, it didn't have any emotional impact whatsoever, because I just didn't care about him at all

Nothing wrong with what he is doing but he is still nuts.

There is a Bobblehead stand you build.

As for the ship, its not done yet.

Is it unusual to have loads of power armor frames?

Every time i come across a suit i just take it back to base, but most have mussing parts.

I end up taking parts to have a complete set then have a frame left.

Also, if i mod up a suit, parts a-f.can i use the parts elsewhere.

Not once did I wear the power armour suits outside of

saving the Minutemen.
