Question How much work do you think is needed to crank a Laser Musket?

Upvotes

In engineering terms, I need to know how much force/work is needed to crank a Laser Mukset. I am no engineer nor good at estimating units of things I don't understand, so I figured someone here might be. Any help is welcome and I am thankful for it

Picture I've just completed my Far Harbor naked level 1 survival run, what other fun challenges are there?

Thumbnail

Upvotes

I did a fun little challenge run, the only conditions were that it was on Survival, I had to arrive on the Island without any items and at level 1.

Meet my character, Kermina, shown here just under level 34, after returning from the Commonwealth. She completely forgot about her son and decided to retire on the Island. The second picture is the beginning of the thriving community she is building there.

There were several major problems (the Captain's Dance under these conditions is just like the harbormen make it out to be, and don't even get me started on the Shipbreaker), and I died many, many times, but at the end managed to do everything I consider a finished Far Harbor run requires:

- completed the main quest and brought Kasumi back home

- finished all quests in the communities of Far Harbor

- solved a murder mystery in a vault

- killed the Shipbreaker

- killed Grun, the behemoth locked in the factory

- got into the supply shed in Cranberry Island Bog

- collected every issue of Islander's Almanac

- bought a dog from Erickson

- discovered every marked location

- obtained all DiMA's memories and got the complete assault marine armor set

Are there other similar challenges? I was thinking about doing the same for Nuka-World, but I don't see a way to defeat Colter at such a low level.

Question How does the pipboy map work in lore

Upvotes

I love playing fallout, and the pipboy is a staple in any fallout game but i realized one feature is weird-

The pipboy has a map

A map that vault dwellers use with active tracking

Now how does the map on the pipboy map work-?

Does it have satellite tracking? Or what?

Really curious about it if anyone knows anything

Other Power armor with built-in weapons.

Upvotes

Since everyone is sharing their wishlists for the next Fallout, and considering the success of the series and the new NCR Power Armor, I’d really love to be able to mount weapons directly onto my Power Armor. I’m currently playing Fallout 4, and I can’t stop thinking: "What if I could put a minigun on the shoulders of this T-60?"

Fallout 4 Fallout themed song inspired by the sound FO4 makes when it freezes.

Upvotes

Hello fellow Vault Dwellers.

I like to make sounds from scratch, and use electronic music as a medium to continue exploring .

FO4 froze in the middle of a session and I couldn’t help but see the waveform in my head.

It’s obvious now but when this game released the parallels between coding and sound design weren’t as apparent, to me.

Was having a lot of fun during that session. Some of that energy trickled down into the song, forsure.

If you decide to grab headphones and check it out, thanks!

Question If you could pick any power amour by looks alone what would you choose?

9 Upvotes

You have to pick a power armor like it’s your first time playing and you don’t realize they have different stats, which do you pick? I personally pick the t-45 as it’s the face of the game and I just like it looks cool.

Fallout 4 Can someone explain why this Junkie's Fatman damage output is so so high?

Is that the maximum potential of this gun or when I have withdrawal effects when or im suffering? Also would it change damage if I wasn't under the guns special effect requirement? I really don't get it and I have been playing for years never knowing what the Junkie ability is or what it does with damage.

Personally, I think I'll make a DLC for Fallout: New Vegas about the Sky Reavers, set in Area 51, and called Empire of Sky

How to make splatter cannon do more damage/ better gun in general

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

What mods should I use to make the splatter cannon, better, currently 82 damage, automatic. But I've seen posts where people have gotten it to 282 are they using workshop mods from the store or is it an entirely different gun I'm thinking of. I was using the spray n pray for quite awhile then bought the splatter cannon. Any other guns recommendations welcome or should I just start rolling around with a fatboy mini gun. I'm level 72, with a water farm so caps aren't an issue, also pic of Cait looking dapper

Fallout: New Vegas Early Game Ammo? (New Vegas) Spoiler

1 Upvotes

I'm going to start a playthrough and get This Machine early. The only issue is that I can't think of a reliable spot to get a lot of 308 ammo early. The only merchants I know that carry a lot of ammo are the Khan's armory, and Bardon at Hoover Dam. Is there anywhere else that has a significant amount? All other merchants don't carry all that much.

He keeps grabbing things without me telling him and every time I look in his inventory to give him something he has more junk. He does that little dance, he's so proud of himself 😭

Discussion Your go to #1 Fallout DLC (not top 3, absolute favorite)

Post image
585 Upvotes

Ive been modding Fallout 4 since the storage expansion. Ive been working on Far Harbor and can't help but feel how drawn I am to it. Aside from it being set on the coast of Maine (my state). The visual and atmospheric experience. With the beautiful and slightly haunting soundtrack. Makes the island unforgettable. And my favorite Fallout setting in the series. That's not including the great story with player choice. That was missing in the main game.

Like the title says. What DLC stands out to you the most? Id genuinely curious to know. ​


r/Fallout 6h ago

Other Fun Fact: If Fallout 5 releases after October 16, 2037, it will be closer to the canonical day the bombs dropped (in 2077) than the release of Fallout 1.

I got to thinking the current consoles have been around almost six years. There is a solid chance of needing to buy a new console for both Fallout 5 and Elder Scrolls VI. 😓
