oh my god keys
sometimes I loot them without noticing, and go to hack/lockpick and you can't not use them!
then I tried to drop them - you can't
my MISC inventory is boggled with keys and passwords!!
at least in Deus Ex you could choose to hack a device or use the password..
Yeah, I *hated* that keys and notes/logs were stuffed in the MISC section and you couldn't organise properly. By the end of the game, you've got a hundred keys or more, which you have to scroll past in order to find the notes -- and sometimes you don't even realise you picked one up (if you're derping and fed up of hunting for crafting bits so you just hammer the E button... cough...) and you can't sort by "NEWEST" either
When I'm done with this, I'm gonna rip this game apart from a thousand angles. Jesus, the game is infuriating... or at least what they did with it. I'm not even sure if mods can save it, just like they couldn't with Skyrim.
My overall impression so far is that it's made for fucking simpletons. It's like a themepark for idiots... one where they can never do anything wrong... always succeeding. And completely soulless. Everything feels so artificial and meaningless... bah. Loot is one of the worst I've ever seen. Their idea of the difficulty setting is just pathetic... and so on and on. So much wrong with this game. I constantly feel insulted while playing it.
Such a fucking shame.
(All highly subjective ofc, before someone wets his panties)
*EDIT* And that patchlog is indeed Pathesda...
The tone of the game was set when 15 minutes after the intro sequence of the game you're decked out in power armor and have just killed a deathclaw.
And while it can be argued that you don't have to go to Concord yet, you can just fuck off and head south or east, bypassing Concord, it's still the place you go to because after exiting the Vault you clearly want to know what happened to your house. And then your little robot pal suggests Concord.
yall will hate me but im still gonna ask it im too stupid to find anything. is there a mod which adds all items you can find automatically into your inventory or atleast show it on the map or something? i don't want to check every damn desk or fridge when seeing it.
like walk through a room and get all that collectable junk right automatically in your inventory without checking out anything.
Not really what your looking for, but maybe as a last resort? You can use "coc qasmoke" in the console to teleport into a room that supposedly has all items, though not that friendly to look through. Use "coc SanctuaryExt02" to get out of there again (to sanctuary duh).
You'd still be missing all information from terminals, though

so is there a decent sweetfx preset that adds some vibrance without any fps hit?
If you just want some vibrance, the best way is to download the reshade framework, rename the ReShade64.dll into dxgi.dll, open the SweetFX.cfg file, set the define USE_TONEMAP to 1 and then bump the saturation/gamma values by 0.1 at a time until you find the sweet spot for you (the higher, the more colorful/darker respectively)
While you're there, enable SMAA as well, doesn't cost much really and it's better than the TAA vaseline. The most demanding effects are inside the GemFX and McFX cfg files, the SweetFX ones are mostly harmless.

As for the game itself, I consider it a great timewaster, but nothing more than that unfortunately. Lowest common denominator is the king that reigns supreme, it all boils down to whether you want to accept it or not..it's tough!
I had to change my perspective, 'accepting' the fact that Bethesda can't write or create something remarkable role-playing-wise, and I'm playing the game in the way that it was intended, pew pewing like the Arnie of the wasteland. I mean the one-liners are already there, I only have to to the rest.
In this time when there's severe shortage of single player first person shooters, I can't complain really. Derp, but of the good kind, if such thing even makes sense
They simply do not learn from their mistakes, But then they probably don't consider shit writing, samey quests, consolification of everything, and unchallenging gameplay to be mistakes.
What is there to learn? They sell more copies with every new game they make. People eat their shit up.

Next time pre-order the super extra deluxe collectors edition, maybe that will motivate them to make the actual game better
Something has completely fucked up my game. I was playing 2 days ago, everything fine. Saved in Vault 81, then didn't play yesterday. Loaded it up today and noticed it was weird right off the bat.
First time I bring up pip boy there is a stutter.
As Im walking through vault 81 I get a hiccup/slight freeze, never had that in 100 hours of playing. I just reloaded another save and when I went to open a door the sound came like 3 seconds after I opened it. opening it over and over the sound was fine. Then I went and shot a guard. The gun didn't even make a sound about 3 seconds later it did...then sometimes I shoot him and just no sound at all. The game seems to have been corrupted, but wtf?
I've tried various saves, all act weird. Before and in vault 81.
Things are laggy, sounds are weird, another save I couldn't use guns. Choose a gun hands come up like I'm holding one, but empty. also lagged every time I picked one.
Wtf..got 100 hours into this and don't want to lose this. How can I fix it? I tried validating cache in steam, all that did was make it redetect my video settings .
I think fallout killed my hard drive. I have a 2 TB drive I tossed in my computer a few months ago. New at the time. Only used it as a place to hold "my pictures" and that was it. Figured it had lots of space, and wasn't used that much so since I heard fallout was some kind of read/write hog I'd stick it there.
I just noticed that when I browse around that drive now, it seems.. weird..
going into individual directories is a little slow..
browsing pictures is slow, so is opening them.

If it's a mechanical drive, run a defrag on it.
It's showing 0% fragmented, but I'll run it anyway. I restarted and ran a chkdsk on it and that didn't kick up any errors..there is a tool or something you can download and run to check hard drives isn't there? It's been awhile since I did that. But I think i did it a year or so ago to check one.
On restart it seemed to load things fast, but then after a few minutes the drive slowed down.
drive goes to 45% analyze, and stops there..definitely something up. I wonder if I still have warranty.

S.M.A.R.T checks, most newer HDD's should support it, I'm mostly using the simpler "Defraggler" software which has a inbuilt tool for checking the status of the HDD but there are more detailed stand-alone software as well.
(In terms of performance Defraggler is pretty quick and allows for defragmenting individual files but it's not as good as some of the other software available but eh it's free though the installer might have Google ads bundled with it.)
(I liked MyDefrag but it's not maintained anymore and even with third party scripts there's issues with the actual software but the author simply doesn't have the time or will to work on it further.)
I had a USB bootable tool that did some read write tests and checked the whole surface of the drive when I was having trouble with a drive before..not sure if I still have it.
It's still jammed at 45%. There is definitely some damaged to this drive. I doubt bethesda gonna buy me a new one.

Nothing new under the sky.
Seeing Skyrim as one of the top played games on Steam for years, think Bethesda will drastically change things to cater to those that want more than... this?
Pre-orders, number of sales, total players on Steam, Metacritic, press coverage, modding community... everything counted into making Fallout 4 what it is today. The voice of those "few" that want something different (aka challenging, better story, better... anything), pales in comparison...

Try running hdd regenerator, I remember when I had a problem with one of my drives with bad sectors (over 2000 of them) ran this software once it fixed all of them, I use the drive now for a year and no hickup yet.
Be warned it will take a while for it to test and repair 2 TB drive, I think I had to run it for 2 days. Or try spinrite thats a great software too.
