Based. as. fuck.

>>532417228
It "sort of" has with Ashes, a trilogy of DOOM based post apocalyptic shooter RPGs based loosely off of stuff like STALKER, Fallout 1 and Wasteland. Bakersfield honestly looks way better, though.

>>532418278
Thats a lot of shit to carry back.
>>532420597
>Ashes
Interesting, but i can see the visual difference.
Wonder if bakersfield will have some form of RPG elements in it?

>>532421536
If the trailer is anything to go by, it at least has a dialogue interface. I think it'll probably have some lite RPG elements, but probably not a lot of character building.
>>532418278
I genuinely cant believe it looks as good as it does, I'm probably more excited for FO:B than I am any AAA release this/next year.

And when is it releasing?

About to play New Vegas for the first time. (I've played before but only for about an hour). Aside the mods I have installed here in this pic, do I need any other mods? Since this is my first playthrough, I don't want anything that radically changes the game. I just want bug fixes, stability mods to prevent crashes, and maybe some mods that would help immerse me in the setting

>>532467385
>anti crash
its outdated
grab Tick Fix and Heap Replacer instead
anticrash actually makes it happen MORE now for some reason

>Still have Nexus Mod Manager installed because I don't want to go through all the trouble for importing my decade old New Vegas config with 100+ mods to MO2

>>532412164
I realised a classic Fallout style game in firstperson would be great playing the Pathologic remake

>>532412164
There is also first person Fallout 2 in the making, I believe.
Why not F1, I don't know.

>>532475212
yeah but the 2 one is really shitty

>>532375331 (OP)
I want to roleplay as a tranner in New Vegas. Give me some ideas. I haven't played New Vegas since 2018, but I definitely don't want to play with sniper rifles (too boring), energy weapons (done that already), unarmed (done that already), or melee weapons (a tranner wouldn't be a melee fighter).
I'll probably side with Mr House or Yes Man (NCR is too boring, and I'll leave the Legion playthrough for later).
I'll also play with jsawyer mod.

>>532376584

>>532480804
in theory there is a static map on them you can look at if you feel lost, but most of the time the "screen saver" you see in the pic is on instead.
There is no internal memory of any kind so if you lose the the connection for even split second (the wire and it's connector are very prone to not working) the whole thing shits itself and needs to be hard reset.

On average every second you spend looking at something on the screen you spend 15 minutes fiddling with the wire to get it just right for long enough for you to navigate the menus to bring up the map, and if you as much as breathe you have 90% of losing connection.

What are some must-have mods for TTW?

>>532476312
I think I'll go with SMGs and/or explosives. I know that jsawyer slashes the carry weight, but I'll figure something out.
I'll also go to DLCs severely underleveled for the first time in my life.

any of you played 76? is it at least playable now? also can you make somewhat sexy characters? thats kind of the main problem with an unnmodable fallout game

>>532479104
Binnish army is testing smart sleeves atm, like pipboy in a sleeve and not a bulky shit like that.

>>532491847
>any of you played 76?
Yes
>s it at least playable now?
No
They threw in some crappygeneric MMO quests, but at its core it's still the same game as at release
>also can you make somewhat sexy characters?
No
The character customisation is the same as in vanilla Fallout 4, but the texture quality is significantly worse, closer to Fallout 3 and NV.

>>532492074
damn, there goes that thought

>>532491847
fo76 is "good" for what is provides, and gets better every update, of which we've had a lot of pretty major ones recently. i think Beth realized they really screwed the pooch with the timing of Starfield and then making TES, whilst not capitalizing on the Fallout show, so they are giving a bit more resources back to 76. It's probably getting a next gen update and new major area expansion announced soon(tm).
the recent roadmap was cut short to just a month instead of the next 3-4 months, whilst datamining has shown more going on in the background, so will probably make more of an announcement in September-ish.

you basically can't do anything beyond vanilla Nora/Curie levels. they are attractive yeah but i mean if you try anything else more varied than those templates, it's not gonna work out too well with this shitty CC.

>>532493907
Even if we accept F76 for what it is it's still a pretty bad sandbox MMO. The only good thing about it is the designs, I'm really glad that they're getting into F4 and NV mods.
And yes, 9 out of 10 updates are complete garbage, and that one good one is just a drop in the bucket with a bunch of flaws
>i think Beth realized they really screwed
No, they're just milking Fallout 76 as it requires very little effort to support while bringing in substantial revenue. Do you really think that fishing or playable ghouls required a lot of effort?

Genuinely how the fuck do you optimize Falllout 4? It sets all settings to Ultra based on my hardware but I get stable 60fps only in small interiors, 40-50 in the overworld

>>532499639
Use bethini. I also recommend using a high set of settings instead of ultra as the difference between them is negligible. Disable godrays completely (in ini file), they look terrible and significantly hurt performance
If that's not enough use the Shadow Boost mod. If that's still not enough then just accept it, fallout 4 is a terribly optimized game

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2521069305

Here's some gameplay footage of fallout. Any comments?

>>532499639
Also don't use official HD textures dlc, it looks terrible.

>>532499639
Set shadow distance to 10 or 12k instead of 20, it's the most fps-hungry option. Volumetrics need to be ultra otherwise they look horrible.

Different parts were probably written in different time, or maybe even different people. "AI scaling" used to refer to terrible early attempts that overcooked everything, ML-based texture upscalers came a long way since then.

Okay fuck Fallout 4 and fuck Todd, I've downloaded every performance fix from MR plus few others and this piece of shit still can't keep 60fps in the overworld.
You'd think that if a game scans your hardware and sets everything to Ultra (I manually lowered it later) you can expect stable 60fps in 1080p but noooooo, everything has to Just Work™
Obsidian won Bethesda lost

>>532644346
TTW is a special case since you need FO3 installed for the installer to pull and modify its files from
Hitman is just straight porting assets from 76 and making it work in NV

>>532655378
It will never be stable 60fps, there will be dips. Make sure your PRP is updated and you have all the compatibility patches you need + toddrays fix

>>532655792
Who knows, maybe he'll release it somewhere in discord or patreon, or maybe he'll just shit on bethesda and release it on the nexus anyway.

>you can go to NW straight from Vault 111 just by ignoring the Gunners and everything in the Gauntlet

It'd be nice to get a heads up when, but its probably gonna shadow drop like oblivion.
I miss the Capital Wasteland.

>>532655792
Like what we have in the OP for FO4? If he's based, he'll just dump them on a non faggot site.

>>532659296
3, nv, and 4. They didn't do it for nuka world due to criticism received from prior DLC's which prevented players from entering most of the DLC's before they were a high enough level.

>>532672830
When it releases, do you think we'll get a FO76 collab? Maybe a D.C. weather station that makes everything green and foggy?

>>532675620
>>532659379
I mean balancing the game in a way that makes it unreasonably hard to speedrun to a late game location and obtain an imba weapon using the prior knowledge, like Underrail. Which is the superior solution to hard restricting the location or the weapon behind the certain point in the story or player's level.

In all Fallouts (and also ATOM which is basically FO2 in Russia) you can just sprint to the Bozar or whatever late game weapon that is simply there. In case of NW, it's Splattercannon + tons of free loot to sell, there's even guaranteed Grape Mentats to make trading easier, so you don't even need Chemist in Survival.

>>532655792
To be more correct, TTW doesn't redistribute any FO3 asset directly. That's why Bethesda never took it down. They don't like when you grab aseets directly from their games, and TTW doesn't do that.

>>532675778
I sure hope we get a colab. Weather machine or Naughty Nightwear

I missed this game. I should finish playing mods for fo3 though.

>>532672830
>>532675778
I more fear that it will sort of end up like the oblivion remaster, it will slowly be forgotten about with barely enough mods to keep it fun
but if it included a FNV remaster as well, then this place is saved

>>532681360
Would a remaster really save this place? What would be there to discuss aside from the quality of the remaster itself. The content will be the same.

>>532681360
what i'm worried about is the aesthetic being jeet sloppified

>>532681562
we're at least 8 years away from fallout 5, and fallout 76 will never be good enough to pull in all fallout players
at least with the remaster we can get by for at least another 6 months

>>532681578
this will be the monkey's paw, yes

the major ones are godrays than ssao, Turn off one or both.
Theres a mod that disables godrays for only outdoors.
You can then install enb and likewise disable taxing settings like ssao but you can use other settings that add more realistic shadows like detailed shadows and that has less of an impact

another reason why 74 is superior. I may not be able to hold a steady 120, but it runs better than 4.

And DX12 update end of the year

>legion dropbox gives me 50 stealth boys
wha

>>532744813
>Game has worse graphics
>Game runs better
Really?

>>532746369
>worse graphics

it doesn't really, the lighting in 76 is superior.
it is held back though by the low res textures (they reduced texture quality a few years ago to reduce install size). Would be nice if they brought back full asset quality in december, but it would balloon install size massively. maybe as a DLC?

>>532746278
>you're so ugly, they don't even want to look at you

>>532746614
76 lighting is essentially the same as F4, only with some features turned off such as godrays and other random things that didn't work. You can achieve 76 lighting in F4 by changing the settings and weather mod
As for textures even the original textures are comparable to Fallout 3 and NV. 76 apologists are simply delusional

>>532747087
This footage is from over 2 years ago. Tell me again how 76 doesn't have godrays.

>>532747297
Bonus footage showcasing a lot of light shafts

>>532747087
And here is a picture from the mod's page that brings back the cut textures, just showing a chair as an example.
NV and 3 don't have anywhere near that kind of texture detail. On a fucking chair.

>>532747297
>>532747473
Apparently I turned them off when I was playing
I didn't expect them to put these shitty looking godrays in 76 after everyone hated them in F4
Do they go through the ground like in F4? lol

>>532747087
>>532746614
>the lighting in 76 is superior
>76 lighting is essentially the same as F4
Both are wrong. They basically rewrote the rendering code to use nvidia's crap, which made it look and run like absolute shit, worse than FO4. They even had to implement static lightmaps (in 2018!!!) and resort to baking in the lighting to make it run slightly better, this is the company that always had dynamic lighting, even in early 2000s. Blurry picture is not a problem of low-res textures, it's a rendering problem. 76's rendering code is a total failure.

>>532747790
Anon, this is the chair from Fallout 4
>>532747957
This is also robot from Fallout 4

>>532747964
Nigga the video footage above shows a 5800X3D and 3080 holding 120 fps at 1440p. Fallout 4 can't even run above 60.
Godrays in 4 were always using "nvidia shit" because they used massively insane tesselation factors instead of a sane, more standard approach. That's why they ran like shit on AMD GPUs until AMD clamped down the tesselation factor in software (no visual impact, it was just insane) and caught up in tesselation prowess. Similar shit as hairworks in Witcher 3.


Yes, the game has shitty TAA. You can turn it off if you want. Game is pretty sharp if you run DLDSR, but that has its own downsides. DLSS very likely coming in december with DX12 update.

The lighting is still largely dynamic and you can literally BUILD shadow casting light sources in your CAMP. Using lightmaps where it makes sense is just good optimization.

>>532748195
Huh oh. Ah shit you're kinda right.
some of the textures in that pack are ported from the FO4 HD DLC.

Apparently for smoller objects, like abraxo packages, FO4 HD DLC is 2048px (overkill, ngl), 76 originally was 1024px and now is 256px

What's a 76 exclusive texture to compare?

>>532748195
Asset flip is an asset flip.
>>532748436
This is it not about TAA, it's about Nvidia's atmospheric lighting, I don't remember how it's called. But it ran worse than FO4 on contemporary 2080s, and looked much worse, exactly because of that.
>Fallout 4 can't even run above 60
You're talking about things you have no idea about.

>‘Look at these great-looking textures in F76!’
>These are literally models and textures from Fallout 4
>They were replaced with some crappy quality ones
>>532748436
>Game works great
That's why developers reduce texture quality and use fucking DLSS?
>>532748684
I don't think these are F4 HD textures, it's most likely just regular ones
>>532748835
Fallout 4 has everything that 76 has, they just screwed up somewhere along the way, so you just won't see it in the game without mods.
Most likely because of the consoles, game did not work on them even after all the downgrades

>>532748195
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1oTBG7ylrM

This video shows the differences in 76 vs 4. Some ambient textures were better in 76 (before the crunch).

Additionally, if you know a bit about the engine, or just read off the mod page here...
https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout76/mods/1209
You can learn that 76 uses additional texture channels for subsurface scattering, ambient occlusion and reflectiveness. You can easily see that in effect when looking at skin, for example. The better SSS is apparent in 76 immediately and in the linked video.
This change went in the direction of PBR that the industry is firmly in now. Except instead of having a catalogue of materials, each texture holds the information on its own, leading to a bloated file size.


>>532748835
Yes, just call me an idiot when you lose the argument. Running atmospherics at lowered resolution is a standard approach, everyone does it these days. I bet you're subscribed to r/FuckTAA, too.

I invite y'all to watch the above video. Or play 76 yourself. If you have any kind of eye for rendering techniques, you'll see that 76 makes a few steps forward.
And unlike 4, it runs at playable fps without breaking the game simulation (that point is around 180 fps in 76, instead of 61 in 4).

>>532749562
The difference between 76 and 4 seems insignificant when you start to look closely. You probably think it looks better because It's different and brighter. And here 76 wins, stylistically it's much better than vanilla Fallout 4. Still doesn't save it from being a shitty game.

>>532750180
76 has better, more convincing (still shitty) GI, much better SSS and better AO. But it loses in straight up texture resolution.
Runs much better though and will run even better in a few months.

I won't say 76 isn't shitty, but I will say 4 is objectively shittier.

I also believe most of the hate in here against 76 comes from angry gooner trannies who are upset that the goon-moddable singleplayer sex mod world isn't getting any love from the devs and the anniversary or whatever patch made everything even worse, while the not nearly as goonable asset flip multiplayer game is getting literally all the attention.

>>532750421
I didn't notice any improvement in performance in 76 because the servers were constantly struggling for no reason.
Overall 76 feels much worse than F4, at least I can play it comfortably
>I won't say 76 isn't shitty, but I will say 4 is objectively shittier.
Both games suck, but F4 has things that make it worth playing and modding. 76 has nothing
>I also believe most of the hate in here against 76 comes from angry gooner trannies....
What the fuck are you talking about? 76 is literally full of trannies gooners posting their characters and buying revealing outfits, just like any other MMO
I hate 76 because it's a crappy greedy MMO

What could cause the quest indicator on the compass to be so big?

Just did the Pitt for the first time.
Today I learned that kidnapping a baby from her parents bothers me more than slavery so fuck them slaves I guess.
Was it normal for the whole DLC area to be extremely dark? even with max brightness and the pip-boy light I could barely see a palm in front of my face. I don't have any mod that should change the lighting but who knows if I didn't fuck something up.

>>532756253
I remember the dlc being pretty visually dark in the steel collection area, but it wasn't too bad.
Also I really liked that dlc, it's one of the few dlcs where you just feel like shit at the end no matter what you did lmao. Prob my fave dlc in 3.

>>532756534
erm excuse me it's MAIZE

Who's the least interesting CAMP Ally and why is it Sam?

>>532758304
Daguerre, because she's ugly and looks nothing like her concept art, and also because she never shuts the fuck up about her head

>>532756253
>>532756536
Yeah it is pretty normal for it to be dark, especially if your monitor is on low brightness or red light/night light mode or you just have a shitty monitor in general.
Giving her to Midia is the actual shittiest option imaginable outside of that mod that lets you eat her. You basically are choosing between the freedom and wellbeing of the slaves, or of one single innocent baby. It's still not a super hard choice though because the slaves are all massive pieces of shit themselves, so if you liberate them they'll just become another raider pack like the ones currently oppressing them.

it's hard to farm rare resources relating to xp gear or something widely wanted, they should add a way to plant berries

>>532759782
>so if you liberate them they'll just become another raider pack like the ones currently oppressing them.
wait how do we know that, I know werner or whatever his name was is a huge piece of shit but everyone else seemed fine

>>532750180
>And here 76 wins, stylistically it's much better than vanilla Fallout 4.
What? Thta's the first time I hear that. FO4 is pretty well thought out, palette-wise and style-wise. It has its own language that is consistent across the game, even if its development clearly changed directions a few times. It's literally the first Bethesda game that at least attempts to look acceptable (with obvious blind spots, characteristic for a company that is historically known for bad art and terrible animation). They kind of tried to have a consistent visual language in Skyrim, but it was pretty awkward.
76 is largely a single-color mishmash of repurposed assets from FO4 and its visually incompatible DLCs, and also adds its own stuff. It's a perfectly homogenized slop made in a rush, like most other Bethesda games.

>>532756534

>>532762712
Try actually getting to know them by talking to them and listening to their ambient dialogue, most of them are violent, unhinged, and/or drug addicts already. Hell, look at the gladiator pitt where the slaves all kill eachother for sport. Many of the raiders you encounter in the Pitt used to be slaves themselves before they upgraded their lifestyle and joined the gang. Slaves like Wehrner and the gladiators are the norm, not the exception.

New game when?

>>532762712
>>532766501
even midia acknowledges that life in the pitt is better after asher took over than it was before, and that it'll probably go straight to the dogs after he dies, she just doesn't care

>>532770472
Why don't they just fucking leave after they get rid of the slavers

>>532768421
Microsoft will expedite fallout 5 and have it released in 5-7 years. Whether that’s a good or bad thing, only time will tell

>>532768421
fallout 3 refurbished is the next fallout game coming out

>>532770897
Because outside is even worse.

Now that the dust has settled. Can we all agree that automatic weapons are basically useless?
>less armor penetration so less dps and much worse ammo economy

>>532775298
>40% armor pen/shot mags
>way higher DPS
>great ammo economy because all ammo is piss easy to manufacture or discover thousands of
retard

I should replay dust

>>532775805
Completely wrong. You don't play the game

>>532776839
YOU don't play the game, retard, most auromatic weapons have a perforating magazine option which gives native 40% armor pen and a base damage boost
you can make hundreds of rounds of any kind of ammo per batch with super duper and ammo crafter, nevermind using the legendary ammo crafting perk that you don't actually need
or using scrounger to find gorillions of ammo of any kind except rockets and mini nukes

>>532776839
if you're running out of ammo, ever, you're not playing the game right

>>532763147
F76 profit directly depends on the appeal of the things they make, so it has a lot of very good outfits and decor
Fallout 4 has some very good designs like flight helmets or bos armors, but there's plenty of stuff like toilet armor
It doesn't really matter because most of these things in the F76 cost real money and F4 has mods and ports from 76

>>532735780
Sorry naked ladies will outlive you.

>>532780181
FO76 is just a bunch of ridiculous mismatching stuff with zero overall direction, it only appeals to people with shit taste who decorate their camps with their "achievements", making it look like a gypsy circus.

>>532783295
There are a lot of really good designs, although from all the screenshots that I've seen f76 trannies are more fond of mascots costumes and other cringe

Current seasons ends in semptember or something right? Is there still time for someone coming back without 1st to get everything if they start grinding dailies and weeklies now?

>>532788018
Anything is possible.

>>532780181
>that headgear won't separate the mask and hat
Still annoyed about that.
>>532784464
>could've gotten more tribal-esque gear
>got metal gear with fur trim
Come on Todd.
>>532788018
You could,but it'll be a close one.
If you can do raids, you can blow through the first 100 with decent teams and buffs.
The last 50 levels will call for consistency however, and a fair amount of doing whatever bullshit public events pop up.

>>532775298
For NV, for early game, Jsawyer ultimate hardcode mode (but on normal or maybe hard, but not very hard) 9MM SMG is pretty great. Although yes, it eats ammo, but 9mm ammo is easy to come by anyway.
NV is that type of game where most weapons are viable, especially if not in hardcore mode.

>>532721582
Careful, you might catch cooties.

>>532794389
SEXO

>>532794389
She looks like she visits red rocket...

>>532788018
Everything? Gonna be a pain
Level 100? easily

Raids or exp maxed west tek with UNY+I and whatever else helps can quickly take you to 100. Technically, in a day, if you have the autism (and the team for raids)

Beyond that it's caravans, public events, nuke bosses and weeklies/dailies. That's where the time gate comes in unless you really spam the events.

>>532788018
>>532805451
I'm level 95 right now and I think it'll be pretty painful to get to 150 from here.

>>532807734
About 28,000 SCORE can be earned per week from challenges. You need 175k to go from 100-150. You'll need to come up with ~75,000 points of SCORE from events from now to sept.

bros, I finally caved in and downloaded a CoD port... the M1 Garand from Vanguard

I'm still mad we have no garand or lee enfield in fo76.

>>532781761
??? Do you know what Puritanism is?

>>532748835
>You're talking about things you have no idea about
No hes completely correct you should NEVER run Bethesda skyrim gen games above 60fps.
>but le high fps fix
Literally no, doesn't matter. Use high fps fix but you STILL need the game capped to 60.
Their games run better at exactly 60 fps regardless of the physics. The animations for example are made for 60 fps.

You can completely break Fallout 3, NV and 4 by running to a DLC area right after starting.

In 3, you can go straight for Operation Anchorage, Call of Duty your way through it and start the game with the Chinese Stealth Armor, Winterized T51B and Gauss Rifle
In New Vegas, you can dash right for Dead Money - in spite of being infamously difficult, there's no hard skill checks. Take Rad Child asap, and of course you can't bring your loot in anyway, but you walk away with the Assassin Suit, the Sierra Madre Security Armor, the Automatic Rifle, an infinite supply of weapon repair kits/ammo/stims, and 100,000+ caps
And in either case you jump from level 1 to about level 8

Nuka World is a little different because you shouldn't do the whole thing in one go, but you can dash there early to do the intro for massive rewards. Grab the Fat Man, Mini Nuke, Fusion Core and partial T45 frame from the robotics junkyard just east of the vault, then run straight to the Nuka Express. Use your first mini nuke to kill Kaylor and her team, use the second you find in the Thirst Zapper room to kill Colter. Do the talky bullshit with Gage and Mason, grab the aforementioned grape mentats and go home with Overseer Power Armor, the Furious Handmade Rifle with ~1500 ammo, 3000 caps and a dozen fusion cores

What was the hardest you could break Fallout 1? Not counting just sneaking to self destruct the mutants and ending the whole game in half an hour

>>532718446
i don't know about fo4vr specifically but i do know about skyrim vr
it was a cynical cash grab on the VR fad
everything you've ever seen that looks "cool" in it is a mod, and it's a pain to get to work with newer hardware even the Index
the game runs at dynamic and variable resolution in order to preserve FPS, and if the resolution were like a volume knob, imagine a child cranking it all the way back and forth forever. that's what you get while in-game.
there's a reason you never see a youtube review about skyrim VR, because it's shit
I still want to try fo4vr though i bet it's fun for 1 playthrough

>>532659379
>>532659909
I was going to say you can't sequence break 76 because gear has level requirements to equip and you can't put on most meaningful items until you're level 50

But then I remembered you can hit level 50 right out of the vault by finding someone who allows you to stand in the room when he kills EN06

After that do the quests that give you Excavator Power Armor, Civil Egineer Armor and the Furious Railway Rifle and you're set for life. You won't be quite as powerful as a raid grinding endgame player but after 90 minutes you'd be like 80% as powerful as he got playing every day since 2018

>>532817297
Starting with energy weapons and savescumming random encounters until you got the alien blaster (best energy weapon in the game, with some caveats), a bunch of small energy cells and the elvis painting, which was worth a fair bit of caps
Whatever you did after that was effectively irrelevant, you could do whatever you wanted and nothing could really stop you aside from trying to fight The Master or the Lieutenant at Level 1
do the game in literally any order you want now otherwise

>>532817532
fo4vr is supposed to be one of the best vr ports ever made so ive heard

>>532817532
I wonder why the VR fad was so short lived
It seems like the perfect way to bring arcade experiences to the home

>>532820318
people have been trying to push vr for 30 years.
The recent vr wave is still getting stuff made for it

>>532820318

>Use your first mini nuke to kill Kaylor
You don't even need that, you can literally jump over the fence at the side near the station entrance and enter it before anyone notices. You don't even need the power armor to beat the Gauntlet, just a Med-X to pass the gas room, Sanctuary has a guaranteed one, a Jet to sprint through the Raider grate unharmed, and a Psycho to kill Colter (there's plenty inside).

If you want to break even the Gauntlet, you can bypass it by opening the chained door from inside (before entering the turret room, just find a crack through which you can trigger the chain). Make sure you don't interact with gang bosses or enter Arena from the wrong exit, everything else is allowed - you can buy the Splattercannon and use it to steal the power armor from Gunners that live on top of the highway behind the Kiddie Kingdom. Then you can return to the station, easily beat the Gauntlet and Colter, and start the story.

This way you can do it literally from Vault 111 in a straight line, not interacting with anything else in Commonwealth, including the robotics disposal site. Or make a Gatling laser build from the start (Aeternus from Amoral Combat is the only GL that is available before the BoS arrival). You don't need any perks in the parks, Splattercannon will carry everything since it's already upgraded to the best receiver).

Is there some kind of cheap cheat way to get mini nukes in this game? This dude was just at eviction notice NON STOP mirving nukes just every chance he got even when there wasn't things to shoot around he was just fucking things up, is he a chinese cheater or just no lifes the game that much that he has that many materials to make that many
