@Lunafancy  I can't recall the exact name but it'll mention the U.S.S Constitution.  It's not only a really cool side quest but you also learn a bit of history.  It seems a lot of quests are done that way which I appreciate.  Also, I'm sure you've missed a lot of side quests, because I'm also running into things I haven't seen before the second time around.   I"m still missing a lot of bobbleheads, so there is a lot left to do.   I always end up randomly going thru places searching for magazines, and bobbleheads.  I'm sure the raiders all hate me by now.   

 

I actually liked the main plotline and felt Bethesda did a good job with it but due to the rest of the content that is so well put together, it ends up being the weakest point of the game.     

I've only done Nick Valentine's entire quest line.  I haven't touched on anyone else's quests yet which I'm sure will take me all over the place.  

 

I'm actually kinda blah about Danse overall.  He just didn't interest me much but I'll go back and see what he's about eventually. 

[Peregrinus]

GODzilla  Salem is also an interesting locale.     

 

I have 8 bobbleheads and there is 21 slots total in the stand.  

[Peregrinus]

@Lunafancy  I think I'll just play Dragon's Dogma on the PS3.  It ran and looked good on it.. I just don't see the point of buying it twice,  not that I could anyhow.    

[LunaFancy]

Yeah, I think you;re right in that it is more a case of everything else diluting the importance of the main quest, again it's the non linear game conundrum I guess. I'm just not finding it compelling, there's no sense of urgency, you know? But it's stuill well done for what it is, no arguments there. Taking a week out due to cat worry didn't help in the continuity stakes either.   Yeah the SS Constitution is the one I'm talking about. I'll head back and see what's up!

 

I'm putting off Bunker Hill at the moment but guess with only five (time zones grrr) days to go for DD I'd best shake a leg.

[LunaFancy]

150 fps Peregrinus- I don't think there is any comparison to the ps3 version at this point lol! I never finished it on ps3 because the performance sucked so I'm pretty darn stoked my rig can run it maxed!

[Peregrinus]

@Lunafancy  Not very fair to compare it to a good PC because it can't compete with that but 150 fps is not something you would even see. Long as it's a steady 60 fps ,  you are generally good to go.  On the low end of things, I am okay with 26-30 fps which is what the PS3 runs the game at.   I would be happy with a solid 30 fps but I generally never get that on modern games so I deal with it.  

 

 

btw,  "damn you, savings and loan! "    

[GODzilla]

Ugh, I have so much left to do in FO4! All the stress of Isolde being so ill really ate into any play time I had left. I might have to do some serious time thedft from real life to remedy this!

 

Check this DDDA vid out Godzilla! Early on you see the grapple function (where your pawns hold an enemy for you to kill) then around 5.45 min you see what the game is all about- you're fighting one foe and then BAM a bigger, nastier critter is drawn to the ruckus and things start to get real lol!

 

And this guy does a stand up job of summarising it for new pc players.

 

Mhm...what currently turns me a bit off the game is the overall quality of the graphics and the dull world design. And yeah, me currently playing The Witcher 3 it's hard not to compare and this looks like...100 times worse.

 

I know, I know, it's not all about the graphics, but there were so many great looking games in 2015. Yes, even FO4, which over great parts looked absolutely fantastic, old engine or not. ^^

 

But anyway, thanks for linking the videos here.

 

 

PS: Second video looks better though, despite showing only console scenes (I think). Games stronger side is dungeons it seems, but the open world during daytime is very bland in comparison to most modern games. ^^

[LunaFancy]

Seriously Godzilla? Such a harsh judgement based on such a short vid intended to highlight the combat. There are much longer videos that show just how incredibly detailed the world is if you care to find them yourself.

 

All I can say i that it IS a 2012 console game that's been ported as opposed to a brand new game made for the current gen consoles and pc to start with, so you're comparing apples and oranges. ... but even so the cities are insanely cool, many levels and twisty side streets, the world is full of hidden things to find and the NPCs are pretty interesting, even if the dialogue is a bit meh. The fact that is is top seller on Steam atm says it all really- most of the buyers have already played it (and paid for it twice on consoles since Dark Arisen was the original game rereleased with a big expansion and cost full price) and are still thrilled to get it on pc...and they've played TW3 no doubt and yet are clamouring for this one says something, don't you think?

 

TW3 was flashy graphics wise but imo bland as hell story/ dialogue wise (when it wasn't being ridiculously cheesy and cringey) and the combat is atrocious. The open spaces in TW3 were just trees and grass and the villages I went to weren't that exciting in terms of NPCs (in fact DD has the ones I went to beat by far) either so I have no idea what you're on about to be honest. Plus FFS it's YOUTUBE footage! WTH? I think you're nitpicking for the sake of it.

 

No skin off my nose if you pass on it Godzilla, I'll be climbing griffins and cyclops and dragons and having a blast all the same. All I thought when I fought a griffin in TW3 was 'if only I could jump on it instead of bashing it's knees'... but whatever floats your boat! I'm done hyping the game here now anyway, the reddit has picked up in anticipation and the Pawn Shop has opened on Steam. I have a choir to preach to which is much more satisfying.

 

Don't worry Peregrinus, when Star Citizen launches and I'm still using the 760 instead of the planned 980 I'll be thinking back to the last week and the astronomical vet bills and sighing lol! I feel you!

[DisturbedJim83]

Thanks Godzilla, she's home again now, the vet changed out her appetite stimulant and she started eating like a champ so they decided to give her an anti emetic shot and send her home. So far, so good- she's been a right piggy since arrival lol!

 

$2700 spent to date.   If anyone ever wonders why I still have a GTX760 instead of SLI 980's I'll just point to her and shrug.   Add this to the $1400 I spent on her 18 months ago for a cruciate reconstruction and she is a very expensive kitty cat! Worth every penny and then some too.

 

Look at that face!

 

 

The Expanse is pretty cool- I saw that it was based on a novel and it's goodness-in-spite-of-being-made-by-syfy actually began to make sense. Thought I'd jumped to a parallel dimension for a minute there haha! I am looking forward to seeing how the three storylines converge, thinking I'll catch , myself up on it tonight while I bleed off the past week's stress, then catch m,yself up on FO4 tomorrow.

 

Nice Kitty on the subject of Graphics Cards my advice would be a 980Ti rather than SLI 980's I'm using a 980Ti myself and its just awesomesauce (Palit SuperJetStream) out of the box the core boosts to 1367Mhz. if that's not available then the MSI Gaming 6G 980Ti is a good buy as well as Gigabyte's G1 Gaming 980Ti or the EVGA/ASUS Strix OC is good too  

[LunaFancy]

Haha! Jim, she's just cost me $2700 in vet bills- the point of the post was to illustrate that I could have bought two 980's for what it cost me. I can honestly say that there is NO new GPU in my future now lol! Not even a 970 would be possible.

 

Not that I'm complaining mind, I'll take another 10+ years with my kitty over a GPU any day of the week.

[Peregrinus]

@Lunafancy  yep, know the feeling.  around $3500 in vet bills for one cat.. Spent probably 10k in bills in taking care of more animals in the past 5 or so years but cats give back a bit more then video cards do.    

 

Another side quest that's pretty cool.   The Big Dig..  and the other one was called  "The Last voyage of the U.S.S Constitution."  

[Jackal19851111]

Lol! And here I was coming in with a new gameplay vid to tempt you with!

 

It has the kb/m controls tutorial prompts showing for Jackal to see if he likes them as well.

 

 

I have to admit my head has not been in FO4 since I discovered DD was coming to pc ... I am really excited about this one.

 

K+M control options, ok +1 point
Mouse button remapping? Walk button? Hmmm... can't see... the player is running around like a lunatic.

Save data lost on starting new game? Grrr... -1 point
FOV looks rather tight =/

Combat against the generic mobs... meh
Combat against the manticore creature... hmmm interesting +1 point

 

Anyway looks like I'm still going to wait until I can confirm a walk button and mouse button remapping. Not going to have a DAI experience again.

[Jackal19851111]

Screenshot from a another fun quest with a pretty cool unique weapon. 

 

 

AHahaha that quest's ending cracked me up laughing my ass off haha, it's brilliant

 

[LunaFancy]

@Jackal- Fair call- there is a leaked version being torrented all over the shop if you'd like to try before you buy.

 

Peregrinus, there appears to be hope for you! Since people have been playing via the leaked files there are reports that it is pretty well optimised, even for less powerful machines.

 

From reddit:

 

" I loved this game on PS3 but never got into the post-game because I eventually got a little sick of the awful framerate, letterboxing, and muddy visuals.

I downloaded the leak yesterday and holy hell playing it now years later at 1440p resolution at 144hz is amazing. It runs extremely well even on my older laptop and has decent mouse and keyboard controls too, so I'd say it's a solid port. I probably won't play too much since I don't know if saves will transfer over to the legal release in a few days, but I would definitely recommend purchasing it if you liked the original.

Plus, I'm desperate for a sequel, and hopefully if this release sells well Capcom will get off their ass and make one."

 

And it's $22 on GMG apparently.

 

And Jackal, you don't lose the save data when you restart unless you select new game. Otherwise you play through again with all your gear on a higher difficulty.

 

Best news is that someone has already sorted a mod to get "Into Free- Dangan" into the game! (It was the original games theme but was replaced in Dark Arisen).

 

Anyway, for all news/hype here is the reddit link.

[Jackal19851111]

Heh nah I can't be bothered with torrents, I'll wait until someone confirms it once it comes out.

 

Just tweak the FOV a little, a walk button, mouse button remapping, and I should be fine.

[LunaFancy]

I've asked on the reddit page Jackal. Here's the link so you can check for answers.

 

I'm doing the SS Constitution quest now- I think I first tried this during my concussion episode, and that is the only reasonable excuse I can find for not getting into the ship before now lol! That was a murky week or two, that was.

[Peregrinus]

@Lunafancy  A another good one is Pickman's Gallery.    

[LunaFancy]

Oh I've done Pickman's Gallery Peregrinus - and I have the PTSD to prove it. *shudder* That is one effed up place!

 

And an aswer for Jackal has already arrived.

 

"There is a walk/run button, a FOV slider, and mouse buttons; these can all be remapped"

 

 

I hope you feel the love Jackal.

Thanks for asking on my behalf

 

Still, I sure hope that's not BS, like, there were some folks in FO4 who were saying "yes, there are guns on back", and then the game came out and NO GUNS ON BACK!!! - I found this out after googling after realising there were no guns on back in FO4

 

Actually, I would prefer it if I get the feedback from you personally once the game comes out - you I can trust.

[LunaFancy]

Well, the difference is that these guys are actually playing the leaked game prior to the release- most of them are diehard fans and have bought the game anyway. Wait and see if a few more replies concur- I'd be surprised if lies weren't called out on reddit.

 

But I'll certainly still check for ya if you like.

[Jackal19851111]

Thanks Luna

 

I'll keep checking myself to see, I'm really paranoid nowadays.

 

If a JRPG makes a good PC version it'll just put the DAI team even more to shame too. Hell those days, can't believe it even inspired me to make my first and only youtube video, to showcase a FREAKIN WALK MOD!!!

[Jackal19851111]

Oh btw Peregrinus, just a performance tip since you mentioned you are okay with 26-30 FPS. In FO4 as you have noticed, spikes and inconsistent FPS. If it's a CPU bottleneck here's a tweak.

 

You need a FPS limiter - I used enbboost, limit it to 30.

Then in Fallout4.ini, under [General], add the line:

iFPSClamp=30

 

The FPS will be much smoother at the cost of game speed (meaning, it will slow down in heavy load), however it would make gun-fights better in high resource areas. I wouldn't recommend this if your GPU is also weak though, but this is one way to get through the CPU bottlenecks.

 

Without the clamp I run at ~40 FPS min outside Boston and indoors, but in heavy areas, ~20 FPS. This tweak balances it out but at the cost of 10 FPS. I had to resort to this when trying out melee combat, as without VATs I need all the FPS I can get as it's VERY hard to melee in a slideshow.

 

Waiting on my chip at the moment, I'm shocked they are out of stock... grrr!

[LunaFancy]

We have another one Jackal! He's even given FOV comparison screenshots!

 

"Walk is caps log (toggle), button remaping is not fantastic but it's there for the important stuff. And yes you can tweak FOV (comparison shots I took: http://imgur.com/a/Wi25v)

Personally I think it plays really well with kb/m since that's something I'm usually finicky about. Camera is responsive (no wacky acceleration/smoothing), runs well too."

 

I'm back in Corvega for this SS Constitution quest- all looks fine to me, what exactly was the issue there? Or has it been fixed?

[Peregrinus]

@Lunafancy  You have a decent PC so you probably won't experience what I did but with some tweaks, Corvega Factory isn't too bad at all.. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for South Boston.. It still runs poorly, and I do get CTD around the area also if I'm trying to move too fast. 

 

@Jackal   Ya, I tried the enboost and all it does for me is make things worse.  The problem areas are usually around the tall skyscrapers but combat isn't so bad.  It's the stuttering while moving that's frustrating. It's not so bad during battle.. The chopper ride however not so great.  That is really jittery.

Hmmm, ok, even FO4 doesn't have a FOV slider! lol - unless one is familiar with the engine inis one is screwed!

 

Impressed really, especially from JRPG devs.

 

Can you remap the block key to RMB? If so, then there's my fears gone, and looks like I'll get this game to entertain me till my upgrade or Xcom 2

Hmmm, try making sure your video size limit in enblocal.ini is exactly the right amount (same as your Vram; 1024,2048,4096,etc), use anymore than your Vram and it'll use your physical ram (which will slow down the game)

 

Not sure of any other FPS limiters, I googled and found this though, not sure if it would help:

https://steamcommuni...81136912630068/

 

You'll need to limit the FPS using the clamp, otherwise with 60 FPS the game speed is 2x, it smooths the FPS not just in combat too, so there is no stuttering, just slowdowns instead of the spikes, then it speeds back up to normal speeds after the spikes in cell loads.
