FO4 BA2 Limit? (lemmy.world)
submitted 14 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) by FenrirIII@lemmy.world to c/fallout@lemmy.world
 
 

How do you get around this annoying limit without having to unzip every BA2 archive? I don't recall ever having a problem like this before.

I've tried Addictol (successor to Buffout) but no luck

Hey everyone, I noticed some weird things on the world map in Fallout 4 that completely contradict the lore:

  • US and Canada: Why are they still divided by a border? According to the lore, the US fully annexed Canada in 2076 after years of occupation.

  • USSR vs. Russia/CIS: Why do we see the modern borders of the Russian Federation and CIS countries instead of the Soviet Union? In the Fallout universe, the USSR never dissolved and lasted until the Great War of 2077.

  • The Mediterranean Sea: And most importantly, what happened to the Mediterranean? It's filled with the same green color as the land, just like the Black, Caspian, and Baltic seas. Could the Atlantropa project have been implemented in the Fallout timeline?

Is there an in-game lore explanation for this? Or is it just lazy developers?

Anybody else ready for the masses of people who 100% believe a new Fallout title (or the remaster) will be revealed and watch the madness unfold like in the Half-Life fandom? I mean, the chances are never zero but I'd rather be surprised than disappointed for the millionth time.

I saw SSTF make this joke here and had to make it happen: https://lemmy.world/comment/24077186

Based on this in-game Chinese propaganda poster from the Operation: Anchorage DLC, it looks like the PLA (People's Liberation Army) was actually the first to deploy the Gauss rifle in Alaska. Is that lore-accurate? Did the US military only start using Gauss tech after capturing and reverse-engineering Chinese models?

Add Mass with Sass! (lemmy.world)

Found at Costco for $10. Never tried it before, curious how it tastes

I'm actually livid right now. I got to the castle, captured it, killed all the mirelurks and then he started trying to kill me. I've done everything I've seen online, every console command (cf "actor.setcompanion" false false and cf "actor.setcompanion" true true. I also did that one that forcefully makes the selected actor on the player's team), I've done tdetect and tried to dismiss him (when I clicked "Talk" it was just "How you doin', buddy?" and a blank screen, no Dismiss option or fetch or whatever. I'm so angry right now because my only save before I entered the castle was from 10 hours before, I've done way too much for me to go back that far. I could actually throw a chair through my window because I'm so angry. The only mod I have installed that affects companions is "Dogmeat alongside other Companion" so I could have codsworth and dogmeat, but that came to bite me in the ass since I can't just go to another companion and tell them to come with me and make dogmeat go to another settlement.

Marginally worse than the original Xbox port.
