Was super excited until this week.


Why this week? If you are reading Reddit reviews or anything similar, do yourself a favor and don't. Biggest bunch of whining, self entitled babies on the Internet they will take a small issue and make it sound like it ruins the whole game. Metacritic scores for this are 89 for PS4, 91 for XB1, & 89 for PC. It's a good game. Buy it.

I got lucky and got one from Amazon. I've never bought a special edition of a video game before. I even ordered the hardcover strategy guide. And I will go get me some Nuka Cola Quantum too!
As soon as I got the notification that it was available, I jumped on Amazon and they were gone. I was a sad panda.
That sucks. It was gone when I first tried to buy it. I signed up for email notification and I got it when they came back in stock.

Expected more impressions to be posted by now, but I guess or resident vault dwellers haven't yet come up for air...

Beautiful game... feels like less stuff to rummage through compared to NV and FO3. I had to turn down look sensitivity compared to normal because it felt like I'd go overboard on moving things around at times. Only complaints so far. I logged 4 hours last night and didn't even realize it. Started at about 10 after getting VPN access and next thing I know I pull the headset off because the dog is annoying me and it's 2AM.

Great game so far. Just got out of the vault. Any bullet point tips? I have been collecting everything, but not sure if I should. Should I be keeping roach meat and crap like mugs and bottles?

So if anyone bought it on PC and you get stuck after exiting a terminal. You have to limit your frame rate to 60 fps and force V-sync on which you do through your video card software

Sounds like a buggy game that wasn't fixed before release because they already had everyone's preorder money. I'll pick this up when they fix their sh't.

What does a PC issue have to do with a console?
LOL, was thinking the same thing.

Bugs are a Fallout tradition though.

That's not a bug. Those damn giants were so strong compared to you at low levels that they knocked you clear across the map. As you gain power they don't do that. I laughed my ass off the first few times it happened to me.

That being said, for min/max in Fallout 4, it is advised to avoid picking up bobbleheads till your stat is already at 10, then the bobblehead will raise it to 11. If you are 9 and pick one up, you are capped at 10.

Console games takes priority over PC games. We end up with a lot of issues from games ported to PCs.

Can you explain the bobble head thing. Never played before. Are they things you find that give you a point boost when you equip them?

Don't equip them. Pick them up and they raise your stat 1 point.

My pipboy edition is waiting for me at home. Now to figure out how to decrease wife aggro so I can play tonight...

Lmao. PSA. If you leave Power Armor at your house, take the core out and take it with you. If not, NPCs will steal it from you. Without the core they cant use it.

Edit: Without the core the suit just moves at encumbered speed so they will still try to steal it, but only if its left out and about.

My wife bought my XboxOne on launch day - a surprise as I said I wanted to wait a bit - and she supports my gaming as long as I do not let it control life.

She was okay with me pre-ordering the game, although when I first purchased it and told her about the pip-boy edition, she said I was gay.

The game should be waiting for me when I get home tonight, albeit I will not start until after dinner. I am taking Friday off to play the game. The wife also said I was gay for doing that.

Mine is waiting on me at home too. Thankfully, my wife plays games too. We play coop when we can, and we each have certain single player games we play. We have an understanding. I don't ***** about her playing Dragon Age and Mass Effect, and she doesn't ***** about me playing Fallout or CoD.
