It seems like a bad case of ghosting / stuttering most of the time. No issues / ghosting in Dirt 3 as said before though.

I never threatened to leave her I was just thinking about it so I could do the side quest with Piper, that's all. I hope you meant catfight, right? You wouldn't be calling my babe a dog, would you because she got game and she'll whoop your butt if she hears you talking about her like that! LOL
Now I see why you get in trouble with Cait. LOL

I tried to ditch her by teleporting into The Institute once and then fast travelling to somewhere other than Sanctuary where I left her and as soon as I materialized she was standing right behind me! That girl can be scary at times. That must be what they mean when they talk about 'woman's intuition'. Cait/Fiona knows everything I am thinking and it is down right spooky.

FYI on a couple posts on the previous page:
Fallout 4 isn't very taxing at all; I was running it on 2x GTX 680's and it was smooth (74fps) with almost everything maxed.
Regarding who's using what mods, I'm thinking about the "Tool/Gun Rack" mod whereby you can hang your guns on the wall... much easier to pick out what I want to use at my base this way, rather than going through an inventory list o O (Just hoping that the settlers aren't gun rack savy, or I'll start to see blank spots on the wall, and have to eliminate any...ummm... thieves that decide to help themselves"

Well... I finished it... *Possible spoiler*
My path...
Created every settlement with excess bedding, complete fencing, excess food/water, multiple full rotating guns, two lasers and two rocket launchers. Once I did this the amount of times they got attacked was nearly zero. I did most of this game in wondering mode. Depending on my mood. Sometimes I ran just jobs. But during the jobs I would explore. Other times I just explored.
My goal was to see if I could complete the game with everyone at peace. I was not able to find a path to do that. Kind of sucked. I tried multiple conversation tactics and job selections.
Then ran all the work that the Railroad asked me to do. Only stopped when I had to decide who I wanted to make my enemy.
Then I did all the Institute stuff, till the same decision point.
Then I joined the Brotherhood, killed the railroad and institute. Now I am just wondering, need to start a new character...
Total time 8 days 15 hours (Keep in mind, each time you go back to a save and try a different tact, the timer does go backwards with you, the time is the path/game time, not total gaming time).

Another spoiler alert: The BOS mission to kill the Railroad is where I went back to a previous save. There were only two BOS techs at the Railroad and I should have vaporized both of them with my Alien Blaster instead of killing my Railroad pals. This game is a trainwreck waiting to happen no matter which path you take. I ponder whether I can just waste the captain of the Prydwen and take over the BOS. It's on my to-do list.

I'm trying the peace method also. So far the BOS are friendly. No contact with the Railroad as of yet and same with the Institute. The Synths however are a PITA. My attitude with them is: They shot first. The settlement building is what I am doing also. Lasers and rockets. One settlement has a defense rating of 170 with a lot more room to grow and a couple others are a little over 100. I have seen the lasers light up the enemy but as of yet nothing with the missile defense. Work in progress there. LOL Regarding the time played. How many hours are on the Steam stat info?

Why stop with just wasting the Capt.? The more enemy you have the more loot you get. LOL The train wreck is just Bethesda's way of giving you more options to go another round. The what if I did this instead scenario. I can see myself giving this another go.

Has anyone figured out the mysterious XP's that you seem to get credit for? I got those a lot and never figured it out, at least until now. I was at a settlement and saw what appeared to be a caravan in the distance. All of a sudden there was a gun battle there. Beamed weapons all over the place. Then I get some XP's and the gun battle stopped. I think it was a Provisoner (or however they label them) that I assigned to a trade route.
Has anyone been able to link the workbench at Home Plate to the main supply line that you start? I have a lot of items that I have to move if I can't.

Well Im coming into this thread way late, but I've been playing the game since release day. I honestly can't make up my mind how I feel about this game. Got some serious dichotomy going on here at my house due to this game.
Anyway, I keep getting sidetracked by settlement building. Typically Bethesda games side track me with exploration, but with Fallout 4 it's settlements.
I'm avoiding the other posts so that I don't see the progess and hints towards things to come. As for my game, I need to go to the glowing sea, but keeping getting off track with all the other pointless tasks that that annoying Preston Garvey keeps going on and on about. That reminds, me. I need to banish him to the most distant settlement I have. That way I don't have to talk to him anymore.

There are some settlers in Sanctuary that I can't assign a task. They just walk around while I can assign a bed and tasks to other settlers. I think Preston Garvey is one of those 'holier than thou' people that I can't boss around. Maybe I'll just hose him with a Plasma weapon. Problem solved!

The original settlers that you brought in with Preston to settle Sanctuary can't really be assigned a task. And I don't think you can send them elsewhere either. (will research this) Between that whiney guy and his "pleasant" wife, Im thinking of putting the Sandman perk to use. Except that they're essential, But hey, at least I could get the satisfaction of knifing them in their sleep over and over. Preston... Im sending him to Jamaica Plains. Let him deal with that mess. And I routinely use him and the other annoying originals to test new weapons.

I "Assume" this is for any clay mines you laid around and robots you activated that are now keeping the area clear of enemies. Not to mention those from time to time you shot at, but they ran, only to die later for one reason or another. *Spoiler* I really like the "Infrared" helmet feature. I get on top of building/bridges at night and rocket/sniper things to death from a far... MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

In order of your assumptions: A) Nope B) Nope C) Nope These are random. I never really paid attention to them other than hearing the accompanied sort of combat actions like shooting being performed. I get a few points and the shooting stops unless there are more targets. SPOILER I found the quad missile launcher and used it on an Assaultron. That WILL use missiles very fast so you NEED a lot of them. LOL I'm a Gun then Roses guy myself. Plop and plant.

I have mastered in the bolt action, and rifles, but I have no points into the perk that stabilizes the use of sniper rifles. Does that have any benefit to your hits with rifles (other than to stabilize the drifting of the rifle)? Because I have noticed that sniper rifles have a minimal impacts on super mutants, even with headshots. if I get "closer" with a regular bolt-action rifle (no scope), they mostly become one shot kills.

I just went and got it and it isn't anything special to me. It is .308 cal and fire rate is only 3. I found a better one that is silenced with a fire rate of 47 at the shack on the western edge of the map near the top of the Glowing Sea. It is hidden in a bunker under the floor.

while i'm pro in the rifle perk, I know the dps is going to really high, especially if I mod it with a .50. however, my rifle I have now already fires a secondary shot, which makes the damage rate to 180+, so i'm not sure if I necessarily need the one you found unless the additional mod it has is much better. Can you tell me what it does? EDIT : One add-on that I would like Bethesda to add is the ability to mod the feat that is added on your weapon/mod. God yes...

The damage for both rifles is 102 plus it gets doubled when I am crouched. It's the fire rate of 3 that kills it for me. The range and accuracy is close if not the same. I need to mod mine to fire the .50 cal round. I don't remember if I tried or didn't know how to do it. For some reason I am still firing .308 rounds. I can't find the workbench at Boston Airport. I know it has one somewhere. I need to send one of my settlers back to Sanctuary. I hit the wrong button and sent him there permanently instead of as a caravan. Poor guy is out there all by his lonesome except for some BOS recruits.

Not the best in game, best against the sea creatures though... the best one is a random drop off of a legendary mod and thats random, normally the two shots... or those that increase damage on limbs.

I'm concentrating on settlement security. Maybe, by doing this, I can then go about other things without the annoying "You Failed" message appearing because I didn't see it as I was participating in a butt whacking scene.
I did manage to see my missile defense at work against some Mierluks. Move over Red Lobster. I also lost 2 settlers in that fight and I don't know what or who killed them.

Preston Garvey finally ran out of things for me to do so I am going around and fixing up my settlements and assigning supply line duties. The last time I was at The Castle I found a corpse lying there so IDK what happened. Last night I got a message that my quest to defend The Castle has failed so I guess I will find some more dead settlers there. I didn't even get a notice that The Castle was under attack. It is heavily defended with Maching Gun and Laser turrets so I have to conclude that the population there is a bunch of idiots and I didn't need them anyway. R.I.P. Castle settlers. LOL

got a sniper rifle that does double damage if out of combat, though maybe the two shots are better...
