Fallout: London - Part 20 - It's Raining Cats & Dogs

[@perturbedbatman2009]

“Help, I’m sitting on a land mine!” Jon: “Ok, get up and let me take a look at it.” “Oh, ok!” *Nuclear explosion goes off* Classic

[@richardcastle3204]

After destroying the London Eye, and then killing Arlo through sheer hubris, Jon has the temerity to tell Battersea's dogs that he'd only set them on bad people...

[@quadrilaturalSamurai]

At 36:31, there's a pneumatic cylinder, and on the opposite wall there's a thing to put it into. Maybe doing that sends it to somewhere else, which you get a reward out of, maybe?

[@lowricusack4635]

Wasn't there a tape on the table by the car too? I mean, tapes usually so something even just a cool story!

Jon, that shotty you picked up in Lost Tommies quest does also have an Instigating legendary effect built in, in addition to fancy skin!

What do you mean Jon, the London Eye is fine. Just, don't look at it from outside of the borough.

[@chrischandler4151]

I've no idea if anything would happen, but on the bookcase behind M's desk, there was a pneumatic cylinder and next to the door there appeared to be a tube that you can put it in. Maybe if you do that you'll automatically get sent a reward.

[@thebpphantom]

When I saw the pencil-left ear I was so glad to see a big mod use the cosmetic features "smaller" mods have been using for several years. Jon: "These are basic ghouls. This should not be causing you this much trouble." Also Jon: Refusing to cripple legs of creature helpless with crippled legs.

[@Osma777]

Also Jon, refusing to use his new instigating combat shotgun. "But Osma!" he cries, "I haven't upgraded it yet!" 60 odd damage doubled is 120 Jon. Your flare gun does 90. Also the shotgun holds more rounds so you don't have to keep reloading.

[@bscar]

I have to wonder how many rads the water really does in this mod if an undamaged hazmat suit doesn't block rads from the water.

[@aecides3203]

@@bscar As best I can tell it's just supposed to be so incredibly radioactive that swimming across it isn't an option under any circumstances, though I'd be interested to see someone try after stacking every available scrap of rad resistance you can apply at once - pretty sure they won't make it, but I'd love to see how far they get.

[@0chuklz0]

Jon, you do realize that if you just pick up some of the herbs along the roads, you can make radaway and stimpacks at chem stations...right? Also, if you just pick up the weapons from the victims of your genocidal activities, then just put them down somewhere else, you get the ammo from the clip. I am running around with piles of ammo from this. Just saying. I knew once you started waxing happy about the dog shelter that this would not end well. You will love the ambiance of Lambeth.

[@aecides3203]

He does know all of this and has acknowledged knowing it in previous series. He's also said that the reason he doesn't do much crafting is because it's time consuming work which doesn't produce any worthwhile content (while doing it at least) and the reason he doesn't get the free bullets is because he again doesn't want to spend a lot of time on inventory management and then, when he's short of bullets and probably should, forgets it's an option because he doesn't usually do it. Same as him being constantly short on caps despite it being so easy to farm them - farming them takes a lot of time and makes for poor content from a production perspective. Any substantial amount of that stuff has to be done off camera, and "off camera" is essentially "unpaid work" for him. It being a job and not a hobby changes how a lot of people play (not least because if it doesn't they tend not to grow their viewership as quickly or as well).

[@EndertheWeek]

In any of the Fallout series it is irritating that he doesn't pick up all ammo just because it is light and valuable but Jon plays as he plays and we have fun pointing out his mistakes and griping about his playing style.

[@0chuklz0]

@@aecides3203 I understand the need to produce content. I also know how many cuts there are in every episode (another choice for content, I know), which means taking the couple of minutes to do the crafting would not impact the content as it would be edited out. I have several thousand hours in this game (Fallout 4 in general), and am very aware of how long it takes to do these things. That being said, I am not trying to complain, I just honestly was not sure of the reasons for these specific choices.

[@garyhart6421]

Yup, the Station is an Exit for/from a Vagabond Mission. If you find the 'Hidden Bunker' you can control the Weather. "Battersea started taking in cats from 1883, but its name remained Battersea Dogs Home until 2002."

[@toakongu1]

Jon forgetting his Never Ending is an automatic and he's done piss all to improve it is just sad

[@Modhunter42]

An upgrade really is over due...

[@toakongu1]

@@Modhunter42 Horribly overdue. Granted he's no spec'd into Commando, but at this stage an automatic weapon is still a decent backup weapon. If it were upgraded properly that is but, unless I'm forgetting something, all he did to it originally was switch it from semi-auto to full auto after he first picked it up. Part of the core gameplay loop is upgrading and replacing your gear with better versions. Jon passed up a Riot Police leg armor piece in the 2nd half of the video. Yes it had Safecracker's on it and that is a near useless effect, but its stats were still better than what he had already. Legendary effects are useless if you're dead. Plus you can't scrap legendary items, so that's some guaranteed accident-proofing. He's all but entirely neglected upgrading his armor and weapons, despite having ample opportunity to do so. I wouldn't mind an episode or 2 where he takes a break from missions to just consolidate his junk and improve his gear. Maybe make a stream out of it, then chop that up into a couple videos of dungeon diving, gear improvements, maybe even some settlement building if he's feelin' froggy. Great opportunity to take some time off before the holidays and relax a little with Claire before the festive season. I love his content, but watching him struggle simply bc he doesn't take the time to make sure his gear is up to par is not my idea of fun.

12:25 felt very classic fallout comedy to me. This Mod is fantastic.

Jon good lord. You have played Fallout for YEARS why isn't 'go for the legs' of a ghoul your default? I can't remember the last time I've even bothered to shoot a ghoul anywhere other than the leg. If they can't move it's a free kill.

[@EndertheWeek]

I can only assume that he feels he can deal with them. If they can't move they are no longer a problem so if swamped it is much the better option. Funny that they made Jane Marsh invulnerable to that.

[@SarzeLight]

From What I Understand, Not All Hazmat Suits Are Water Tight, So It's Very Likely That These Are Not Water Tight Ones, But, Even If That's Not The Case, Fallout Companies Tend To Be Worse Than IRL Companies For Cutting Corners In Manufacturing, So It's Very Possible That They're Just Not Made Well Enough To Fully Keep Out Water.

This video is a perfect example of why I saved the game every five seconds in case I make a mistake, just do what jon didn't do.

I don't know if Jon is on survival mode or not but if he's not, don't know why he is letting these mistakes happen.

there used to be a bug that you could not upgrade combat shotguns because screws were not recognized as screws. Idk if it was patched, but if not, there is a mod that fixes it.
