Speaking of vendors, how long does it take for them to restock their caps? I can't sell anything because every vendor is broke lol.
Yeah that's a weird one too. Usually it has 200 but earlier I logged on and the first one I came across had 10
I came across somebody's camp in the middle of nowhere and deposited junk / repaired gear, etc. The owner came back and we exchanged friendly emotes, as I was leaving I accidentally shot him in the chest with a shotgun, like, legitimately. My finger legitimately slipped.
He murdered me without a second thought. I mean, if that's not Fallout, what is?

LOL
I was exploring Harpers Ferry, going in and out of buildings when a guy darts out of one in front of me, and I was spooked and swung my weapon (melee) thinking he was a ghoul. I missed, but I think the sound effect got him on edge and he basically shimmied around me strafing and never turned his back to me from that point forward when we crossed paths a couple more times lmao.
Not just relogging - quit, quit the application (if on PC, quit and relaunch Bethesda.net) and upon logging back in the quest should be back and working.
Are these the patch notes for today's massive patch?

Why the hell is the patch so massive? It barely does anything! I was expecting an enormous list of fixes and improvements.

Yea, the notes are bad.
For whatever reason, there was seemingly a lot changed, probably most of it on the back end, that they felt didn't need to be put in the notes, or even allude to even if it's too technical to publish. Like removing the framerate cap and decoupling movement speed from fps. You'd think they'd lead with that after how much that was thrown around as dunk ammo.
After only disconnecting maybe once or twice since the beta, I have disconnected five times tonight alone. Always at a point where I lose a lot of progress.
This game is so addictive. I just met a rando and we quested together for like 3 hours. It was awesome.
there's not much to "respond" to. it's an online game with a rocky launch, it was anticipated. probably thrown off by the clickbait brigade crusading to this degree but nothing to do there but ride it out
FFXIV was a nuclear meltdown. very worst i could see this game fading away into bargain bin obscurity, FFXIV could've sunk a corporation

Anyone find the Blacksite Guard Key for the door in the back entrance to Sugar Grove? It leads to another area of the building you can't reach from the front entrance.
Enjoyed my session tonight. Explored the bridge, found a new power armor that looks awesome, and in the same room was a map with four pins on it and a tape referring to a black widow.
Stumbled upon a daily for Amy Kenner, who dated a guy named Jeff and tried recruiting her to Responders HQ. I actually stumbled across her before the quest but her story was the type that immersed me in a Fallout world. Picture hanging on her wall with Jeff. Completed that and called it a night.
Tomorrow I press on with Rose's missions.
Re: update. I saw neither improvement or worsen of performance. I still have a big where after I check the map and go back to game, the game will freeze for 3-5 seconds before I can move. Playing on Xbox One X

So I'm just now reading that there is a LMG that uses .308 rounds. I knew there was a reason to keep picking those up (I have over a thousand rounds).
Couple this with the "bear arms" card, and you can lug that thing around pretty easily. Now, to find one or a crafting plan.

I got home today, excited to get back to the game...and was met with a gigantic patch that'll take hours to download. I've read the patch notes, but it doesn't make sense. Sorry if it's been covered already, but does anyone know why we needed a patch this big for the stuff they fixed?
Can anyone explain to me why the fuck are Stashboxes plans so damn expensive when they are mechanically identical to the default stashbox you start the game with? I spent 800 caps on a toolbox plan thinking I could get another container to put some items in but it just links to my already full stash.
It is slightly better, but not enough to say its smooth by any stretch.
Classic Bethesda!
I'm hoping more that they take ESO approach of really fixing it. Game is in great shape these days and I think is the #2 MMO behind WoW
I played for about four hours tonight, including the whole quest that had the busted token dispenser. That was my first trek that far north on the map.
The game felt smoother than before the patch, I think. Obviously, there's more work to be done, but I'm still having a lot of fun. I need to figure out where the Overseer went next, though.

Yesterday was great, I continued with the questline for Rose but got sidetracked by a nice spot on a cliff what I now call home. I wasn't even finished with my new house and got attacked by three lvl 25 glowing radrats. I hate those vermin. Killed one and the others started to chew on my camp instead of me and man they can chew large bites out of door, walls and cooking stations. It's super annoying, that your camp attracts enemies like that. I'm living in the woods on a cliff, why they are bothering me...leave me alone. Funny thing, I build my house in a forest, but there is no wood I can gather. Bethesda, give me a hatchet and I chop some trees.
After my sidetracking I finished another Rose Quest and then finally completed and repaired my T-45 Power Armor and gave it a nice camouflage painting from the Atoms Shop. I had to repair the left leg three times before the game acknowledged that I had done so, but after entering my suit the display still shows my leg as damaged. I tried to change servers to fix it but no good. Annoying but maybe starting the game tonight will fix that.
After that I traveled to the camp of a friend but couldn't find him because he was hunting near by and was crouching all the time. So I went looking around for him and found a neat 0.50 Machine Gun instead. Man that thing is awesome, but sadly it doesn't sound like a Browning M2 and fires too fast. But hey it has a magazine/box with 250 rounds. So who am I to judge.
It will need a lot of materials to repair it, because after not even two full boxes of ammo the condition down to half, but I can see that this will be my favorite weapon.
Finished the broken token quest yesterday with said friend and what is pretty great is, that when he finished that quest I got 15 caps and when I finished it shortly after I got 60 Caps.
The Game after the patch still runs great on my PSPro, no stuttering or slowdowns while fighting or exploring. But in that regard I'm really lucky because it runs great since day one of the beta.

Should be able to scrap anywhere.
Check your effects, it's possible you're eating/drinking things that give you temporary boost to carry weight. (like radstag stuff I think). It's also possible a mutation or gear is affecting your strength. Maybe even a disease? Broken (deep) pocketed gear perhaps. Could be all sorts of things :p
1 strength = 5 carry weight and you start at 150 I think so if you have 6 strength you should be at 180

If you're in the Whitespring parking lot when a car explodes, the robots might get angry at you for it. So, uh, watch out for that.
I hope they eventually chill out, because that's my favorite crafting and vendor spot.
Edit: Switching servers made them non-hostile again.

Place a Welcome mat and you'll spawn on it when you fast travel to it.
Same here. I have a lovely spot next to a river (and near a vendor and a power armor spawn), but the game always puts me in the water.
Those are only buildable at workshops, unless it's bugged for a lot of people.
Wow, I forgot all about that. Here I was wasting like 10 disease cures.
Sadly I agree with the above, for me at least I only seem to get that option at a workshop. I think you can get cosmetic ones but I haven't tried if they work for the same purpose
Was this discussed? Christ, what a f up from Bethesda's side.

It's the biggest disaster in people shitting on a good game because they don't like the concept.
I think Fallout 76 was the straw that broke the camel's back. I don't think the game itself is a disaster, but Bethesda has been playing chicken with reviewers since 2011.
The Pro version ran the best of the three for me but I had alreay pre ordered on X1X. With the switch off overheat bug still not fixed I regret my platform choice.
That's crazy, are you talking about post yesterday's patch? Or since launch?
I'm on Pro and get bad stuttering during rain, heavy alpha effects or large groups of enemies during battle. I haven't played post patch though, so eager to see improvements.
Post patch has been noticeably better
But ive only put in a few hours post patch so ill know more after I put more time in
So far so good though
