I just watched a gameplay trailer for it. Holy crap. I think I would screw that game up in a heartbeat.

Anyone playing Rocket League? I'm addicted. It would be cool to get together on discord (like a skype call for gamers) and team up or play against each other.

I'll probably start a play through using that method as well.  I'm thinking melee weapons only though.

I use power armor as my full-time suit, have been pretty much since I got it.  There are tons of fusion cores around, just have to find them.  I don't think I've ever gone below 30 cores on hand.

I have storage boxes for all the different materials at main settlement. And yes remove and store fusion cores. I also use Vault 11 for my main 'base' with all the storage room available.

So far just wandering with bolt weapons and gathering raw materials and 'fun' stuff. The pile of weapons in storage is massive, as well as ammunition stocks. Since I know the drill of how to finish game, making it a challenge.

Make sure to take the fusion core out of you armor after you leave it somewhere. You don't want a raider or settler taking it from you.
As far as junk goes, some people stack it on the floor and some don't. I just hit "Y" on Xbox1 and store all of my junk in the workshop.

Yes- the more you do, fast transport, or run depletes them pretty quick. Only use Power Armor when and where you really need it, store suits at your settlements, and use closest one to where you want to do whatever. Don't use them full time as repair costs in raw materials gets up there as well. I just collect the suits and store them in my settlements till I need one. Use the military body armor, works but not as well, but no 'energy' needs. Also get body armor for you settlement security people as well as well as good weapons. If they get attacked you need them to survive till you fast transport there.

Do the power cells for your armor always deplete so quickly? Seems like I can't get through a mission without ~1/2 of it being gone.

Keep it simple, keep it slow and learn. Don't get yourself over your head with 'enemies'. Disengage if too much for you and go around. Expand you little world from your base settlement and get a good perimeter of villes. rest is easy but don't get impatient and try to go too fast.

I beat the game several months back and now have another going where I limit myself to 'pipe' weapons and old military uniforms and body armor, I do collect power armor and return them to my central base ville, got 6 suits already standing there.

Starting to explore a little bit. Not sure how I feel about the game just yet. Having never played a Fallout game before, I guess I need to get acclimated to the gameplay before I can really appreciate it.

I will say, that I managed to thoroughly creep myself out searching through abandoned houses afraid of ghoulers.

Depends on end goal. A lot of 'junk' comes in handy when raw material is needed, just pile it around your central building and use as needed.

I have piles of stuff in all settlements.

Should I be scrapping all the junk I find, or is it better to hold on to those random ass items you find all over the place?

Charisma 6 Local leader is a must if you plan on building the settlements. You can farm purified water and jet to make extra money.

Yeah, apparently you can only have one companion at a time, so if you trade your dog for someone, make sure you send the dog back to your base camp or you'll never be able to find hi again.  Poor fella.

Brother in law gave me a free copy of Fallout 4 this week, so I'm starting it up today in advance of shoulder surgery next week.

Any tips for someone with zero experience in any of the fallout games?

I thought it was interesting that Codsworth pronounced my real name but everyone else will not.

It all draws to abhead pretty sharply. Suddenly one faction will want you to do something which will go against the others.

I just wish the game was more self aware. Just had someone say theyexpected someone better armed. I'm wearing maxed out modified X01 armour and toting a MIRV Fatman. You don't get much better than this.

Also had a rousing speech to some recruits by the BOS as to how a Knight getsvrewarded with this precious power armour, while standing there in my tricked out T45F armour.

Some of the random lines reflect you're well kitted but not the story lines.
