10 ESSENTIAL Tips and Tricks for New FALLOUT 4 Players

[@lukiridiculous8958]

Have really been enjoying watching your videos, you gave me a whole new perspective on fallout 4. On fallout 76 I am a heavy min-maxer and before I found your channel, I never knew that fallout 4 could be played as a heavy min-maxer aswell. Cant wait too see what else you got in store for the perfect playthrough and what choices your going to make in the main quest and dlc’s.

If you choose to play the hard core Survival mode, when you get to the elevator in Vault 111 and have the option to make any last changes to your character, change your name! Even if you're otherwise happy with your character this will start a new set of auto-saves and leave the auto-save that happens just before you get to the elevator untouched. That way you don't have to go through the 20-25 minutes of pre-war story and cut scenes every time you start a new character. You just go to that save then make any changes you want.

When it comes to your special, Max each stat before you grab the related bobblehead so you can hop 11 in each stat. When your strength is 10, then grout the strength bobblehead so you have a base strength of 11. The bobblehead will always increase your stat by one even when your base score is 10.

It's definitely worth playing there's just not a lot of variation on multiple playthroughs or builds, the story is kinda lame as well. The speech tree thing is essentially just three ways of saying "yes" and one way of saying "no for now" lol. There's not a great deal of choices yielding significant results like there was in any of the other games, like in f3 you can blow up a whole town within the first 5 minutes of leaving the vault and that changes your game permanently. Exploration is probably the best thing about it because the map, engines and mechanics are definitely good but when you've gotten 100% on all the games you can pick out a lot of flaws if you compare them because none of them are the same.

[@thehittite6982]

If you're playing on PC, well first off I recommend playing through unmodded your first time through so you can cater your experience better to your personal needs, but after that look into these mods: - Weightless Junk. Enables your hoarding habit, cuts down on having to go back to base every 10 minutes, and makes it so you don't have to jump between settlements when you forget to bring that one obscure component you needed. - Place Everywhere. Makes settlement building 1000% less frustrating. - Scrap Everything. This can be hard on the game's performance and risks actually breaking several settlements, but it also lets you get rid of all that trash lying around everywhere which is worth it for me. - KeyNuker. Reintroduces the key ring from previous Fallout games to unclutter your Misc tab. - Legendary Modification. Tired of getting crappy equipment with good effects? Strip that legendary effect off and slap it on something good. - Sim Settlements 2. VERY hard on your performance but also lets you fine tune how hands off or on you want your settlements to be. You can micromanage every little detail or just point at an NPC and make it their problem.

[@TexNguyen]

My best tip would be to finish the Prep School quest as soon as possible - not so much for trade, but as a great way to boost your settlement populations (or boost them further once you've reached your limit using charisma etc)

[@profsakharov1191]

Tip 2 Addendum: most settlement workshops can lose resources if the settlement is attacked and loses while you're not there. Some workshops are safe from such losses, for instance Home Plate in Diamond City. However, the best workshop to use to hold your resources is probably the Mechanist's Lair - no settlers, no food and water, so no attraction to raiders. Even better if you use robot provisioners as they can be built there, too, connecting other workshops to the main resource storage. Tip 3 Addendum: getting too lost in settlement building can result in a traumatic next encounter with a mirror. The mildly OCD 'need' to get things just right, no matter how many tries it takes, can result in (for the male player) your reflection not being entirely as you recall it due to such things as heavy beard growth, widespread appearance of heretofore unexperienced grey hair, and, in extreme cases, unnoticed onset of male pattern baldness, various previously smooth areas of skin being less elastic and more wrinkled, large piles of unopened birthdays cards, alongside (for post-nuptial players) subsequent distinct absence of marital partner and home contents due to obliviousness to all not Fallout 4, leading to virtual desertion and electronic re-settlement in the Commonwealth. For the female player all of the above without (except in ultra-extreme cases) the beard. .

For settlements I would recommend pushing them hard into farming with crops used to make vegetable starch. If you plant insane amount of given crop per settlement, assign settlers and connect settlements you will be able to mass craft a lot of starch - for exp and to have glue. Also Idiot savant is really good for this even with high int. Brahmins in each settlement will allow you to mass craft jet which can be used as "currency" as well - buying something expensive from vendor and then dumping jet or better yet - some advanced version of it (that one with rocket fuel).

[@gilgamecha]

The point being to get adhesive from the starch to build mods with.

Ps,I hate power armor, screen visuals suck, try picking up minds while wearing pa🤪

[@tonydabaloney]

Love the game and have played every FO from 1 to Tactics to 4 many,many times. Here's another tip i found very useful. When you have a lot of true junk in your inventory, drop it all on the ground and then you can scrap each piece. Then in your workshop it shows up as copper,iron,wood or whatever, instead of showing as clipboard,pencil,camera or whatever. This is the best way to keep up with raw materials. It also unclutters your workbench. Its better to see "iron" rather than 45 cans and 6 cameras.

[@gilgamecha]

This is 99% true although there are some rare cases when scrapping makes weight increase, and a small number of items that should not be scrapped because they are more useful in their original form.

[@paulogoncalves3079]

Great video bud. This game is amazing and having almost infinite leveling up is a precious gift!

[@divergentlife493]

Not a very good tutorial. Does not explain anything on how to play. Says to loot/hoard, and put everything in workshop. Does not explain what it is or how it works. Also acting as if you need exp alteration from Int and Luck. Any exp boost is completely and utterly unnecessary. And a total waste. At least if it's your first time playing and not trying to do any sort of power leveling. This applies to any and all professionally made games that have similar design of exp progression system. I have typically found the balance to be quite good in games. And I don't see this as any different. Meaning as long as you're at or below enemy level, you should be able to take them with sound play. Especially considering difficulty level. I chose Survival for my first playthrough. And also if you're with companions in a party. There is no need whatsoever for any stat that boosts exp. Int is a total dump stat other than for perks. And there is zero reason to get perks that boost exp. For any and all well designed games, you will gain exp simply by play. You fight enemies you can, and avoid enemies that are too high. And you will inevitably level up to face more difficult enemies. Any sort of exp boost is a total and utter waste of character building.

[@gilgamecha]

It's not supposed to be a tutorial. But I do agree with your points.

[@seeess925]

Tip number 4 to maximize exp is by far no. Absolutely not a good idea. I mean yes do your best in game. But do not worry about exp. Especially when it comes to character build. So the real tip is the direct opposite. The game already rewards more than enough exp just by playing and everything you do without thinking about it. It's utterly pointless to go for anything that boosts exp gain. Intelligence is the most pointless stat in the game It's not even a real stat. It's just more of an attempt to balance out deficiencies in the character by boosting exp. Just put points into real stats that affect the character and play and enjoy the game. There is zero purpose of allocating anything into boosting exp. It's a total and utter waste. You need to gain exp to improve to fight more powerful enemies. And there's no shortage of it. And I play in Survival only. If there's a case that you're not powerful enough for something. Well there's loads and loads of quests and actual content available that will inevitably gain exp Without needing to do anything else or do anythingn to get more exp. Other tips are good. just do not listen to tip #4. It's a total and utter waste.

[@gilgamecha]

I do tend to agree with this. Levelling up is also pretty pointless when the enemies "bullet sponge up" faster than you can level up, even if you pile all your perk points into combat related perks. You're basically robbing yourself of enjoyment by farming XP. I think this idea has been copied over from other games. It might make sense there, but not in FO4.

I RARELY use power armor. It boosts your strength, but it also cancels the bonuses of the armor armor pieces that aren't power armor. I die much quicker in power armor than I do leather armor with armor pieces, especially with legendary effects. Also, get an explosive shotgun. Even a double barreled explosive shotgun will tear apart most enemies in one or two shots. Combat shotgun is better, but you can easily get a double barreled explosive shotgun as early as level 10 (never got any before that myself).

I learned something new tonight. Maybe you already knew this. Maybe someone else don't. If your companion picks up a weapon, and starts using it. You can upgrade a similar weapon. Give it to your companion. Do not assign the weapon. They will use it, and not need ammunition. Example: Strong will pick up assault rifles, and use them. No ammo needed. I have Strong is using a fully modded, automatic assault rifle, with enclave paint. And I don't have to give him any bullets.

[@gilgamecha]

That's actually an exploit I've never heard of, and I thought I knew them all. I'm also surprised because usually NPCs pick the weapon with the highest DMG. Maybe in this case he is picking the highest DPS. I guess you have to give him at least one 5.56 bullet?

You can skip the settlement thing. When Codsworth ask you to go to Concord you can skip that too. If you want him to be your companion, you just need to go there until you you heard the gun shot (Preston vs Raider). You don't need to save that guy if you want to. You can skip meeting with Codsworth also, nothing break the game

[@gilgamecha]

You can win the game building exactly no settlements. You will be given a location to do the one thing that you need a settlement to do.

I know I’m late but I enjoy it by figuring out every way I can glitch it

[@klondike69none85]

I remember a guy from like 6 years ago on YT had a channel that just broked and glitched games, Think it was called Lets play it out! or something lol

[@imikegaming2070]

Just started playing I can’t wait

[@boshankers12]

Here’s a tip, take the fusion core out of your unattended power armour before some POS raider hi jacks it and makes it unusable….

[@psypolux]

I bought the game for pc when released..never finished the game..now i reinstall in my series s ...looks like a new game

[@bazookallamaproductions5280]

i play fallout 4 like minecraft just building and gathering and farming lol im lv 80 and I've only done 1 quest 😂

[@shibbyjim]

Trying to get into it... Kinda kicking my ass early on just got to diamond city

[@gilgamecha]

It's tough at first.

[@VictorSellars]

Like so many I am motivated by the streaming series to play the game. thanks for you tips! what platform would you reccomend?

[@TheEfficientGamer]

PC if you have the option.

[@Lizardking97]

For years my friend would religiously play this i never got around to playing until last week and I'm hooked

[@TheGreenWizard-gf3ie]

I haven't played it in year but thought I'd go back and play it again so this video was perfect for that

[@stereomike75]

Good vid, subscribed.

[@AidenApplehead]

Also, you can get a good weapon like righteous authority fast from Danse's mission because he can carry you throughout the mission, you wouldn't need to use 1 bullet on the mission

[@christopherconard2831]

Same with the first Railroad mission. Let Deacon and a companion take the lead and just pick up the stuff left behind. Though this will cost you some XP Plus both give you a nice gun at the end.

[@Ayosinnn]

Fallout 4 has to be one of the best games of all time

[@casio5658]

I know this is crazy but I never played the fallout series before so I’ve been playing fallout 4 for 3 days now and this is fun to play

[@GrungeVeins]

Played fo3 and NV on release, enjoying 4 so much rn😵‍💫

[@matthewgodwin6688]

I use maxwell rifle and sleep if get great item Shipments cause more per item and make posion caltrops for cash

[@rossdevin9799]

I truly want to thank you for all of this advice and tips you have given us. You speak about the game passionately just like I do about ANY fallout game, you just use better words😄 I have played this game since it came out, I pre-ordered it, and played it in all modes. Glad to know there are more than just a few of us Bethesda fans out there, I also play skyrim, thank you so much for the tips they truly helped even someone seasoned like me. ✌🤙

[@yomtvraps7081]

Just bought this game a week ago (never played any fallout) and I still cannot figure out what is going on 98% of the time

[@gilgamecha]

It's quite confusing as a first time player. Talk to all the NPCs, they will kind of guide you through the story.

[@moniker4008]

I remember enjoying the crap out of the game but got very stuck when it came to ammo, and I was in the position where the melee weapons I had didn't really work so... double screwed with dat

[@tylerddh]

Finally got this game, time flys when you're living life. The hording tip was reassuring because i normally try not to over burden myself with too much junk but i was getting the sense i should pick everything up lol. Was a big fan of FO3 and #4 definitely had a different feel right off the bat.

[@rickydiamond441]

Flies and hoarding.

[@cyber1ifeconnor]

Charisma also effects maximum number of settlers

[@handyskills1397]

Tipp Nr. 11 38. Bullets are currency and not for shooting

[@joeblow3905]

Don't worry about build guides ever!

[@connerschupp4543]

Just bought this game, after years of wanting to get it. It came on sale and bought it for 10$. Exactly the way I found Fallout New Vegas, and fell in love with that title. Thank you for making this video, it is still useful to noobs like me lol

[@Smurbulock1234]

I like your love for this game. Subscribed

[@rileyxsko]

I always like when there's no level cap and you have access to every perk, I play videogames to escape reality, kneecapping my ability to become the best being I can be ruins that power fantasy.

[@klondike69none85]

yeah but you need to understand how slow levelling becomes at a fairly early stage. I cant even begin to imagine how many years of gameplay to get every perk unlocked. So, in a way there is a cap, time

[@rileyxsko]

@@klondike69none85 I feel that, I've been working on over-leving Bayak and Kassandra in AC Origins and AC Odyssey respectively for literally years now.

[@DocTraubo]

Your video sounds a lot like a love letter - and I couldn't have said it better :) One lesson should every game studio learn from Fallout 4 and Skyrim: let your original dev tools free and unleash the full magic power of passionate modders. The ways to transform and/or extend F4 are nearly infinite - that's what keeps me playing.

[@paulahn9293]

just picked this up after taking a few years off of gaming. after putting in a few hours I'm relieved to know that I shouldn't stress so much about getting the "perfect" build. Thank you Efficient Gamer!

[@giovannacastrogiovani5495]

I play fallout when i whatch this

[@pskully57]

When your settlements get attacked, place mines where the adversaries came in. You’ll gain experience while out wandering the wasteland by those who step on them.

[@gilgamecha]

Incorrect. Mines will not trigger unless the cell they're in is loaded. That needs you to be nearby.

[@pskully57]

@@gilgamechaThen why are they gone when I come back?

[@gilgamecha]

Why are there no corpses next to them?

[@pskully57]

@@gilgamecha Why is it when you're out exploring you get random experience kills even though you are not in combat?

[@gilgamecha]

@@pskully57 it's to allow kills by kiting opponents against each other. You get kill credit if two groups of NPCs start fighting each other, triggered by your movement.

[@connermaxham835]

Thanks you for the tips and tricks 😎
