Really enjoy these challenges. I hope they return. Going to give survival a try for the first time. Although, this stream showed us exactly why I've never bothered. I just want the eat, drink, sleep, etc in very hard, Todd.

So don't know if you realise, been told or discovered for yourself, the bug with Macy Long is all because you left the foyer of the museum when they were still talking about what was happening as Macy has a line to state in that segment which is a check for the Sanctuary quest. If you hadn't been in a rush to leave the foyer it would have all worked out.

To clarify the Cryolator confusion, you can still get dogmeat to fetch it on PC. I just did it right before adding this comment. Started a new, unmodified game. I sent dogmeat in the room with the cryolator, closed the security door behind him with myself outside the room, then told him to fetch me an item. First try. No problems. Cryolator fetched.

[@matthewgnepper3201]

I did it last week without any issues on PC. It still works.

[@joe_higachi]

Good for you

[@mcolman303]

With the mods he's using, it won't work if you watched part 1 😏

[@bradjones7491]

they patched the game so dogmeat can't go into the vault on pc.

[@Omegasack]

@@bradjones7491 I'm on PC. Still worked fine.

[@jaeusa160]

I was motived to reinstall this, and seeing Spiff's suffering, I made sure everyone (ie Marcy Long) actually LEFT the Museum properly. Of course, right down the road behind the Deathclaw's spawn location, a car exploded and pushed itself a bit into the road. And, of course, the only NPC to try to path through the car was Marcy Long. She walked her into into the a dent that used to be the driver's door, and stood perfectly frozen in a little nook. It was a heck of a time to actually manage to push her free, watch her do laps alongside the car's trunk, before getting stuck again, then somehow miraculously becoming unstuck and leaving. I hate Marcy Long.

[@heikkiremes5661]

After all that sweating and stress, whacked by Art. Frickin' LOL!

[@jaeusa160]

Only 10 years later and Fallout 4 is definitely a mostly bug free not broken experience that doesn't require console commands or third party patching to fix! No, wait, nevermind.

[@mobius1504]

I barely have issues, its when you start using the CC window for everything that you break the game, or mod it too much.

[@somegal3836]

Protip for future streams: NEVER take Toughness, it is a flat 10 damage Resistance. Instead, always have charisma 3, and take lone wanderer. That instead gives 15% damage reduction, which doesn't sound different but is WAAAAY less damage than what a piddly 10 DR does in the damage calcs. Lone wanderer is also useful in survival for carry weight, but the damage reduction is the highlight in a permadeath scenario.

[@Skyblade12]

Cheesecake is technically a variety of custard pie, similar to Lemon Meringue or other custard pie variant. New York cheesecake has a higher proportion of cream cheese to the standard variety, and it results in a thicker texture. There is also the New Orleans style cheesecake, which is a substantial derivation, as it isn't baked, but instead the ingredients combined and chilled.

[@EUSilverleaf]

Absolutely hilarious. Spoilers: Start of stream Spiff: "I'm pretty good at Fallout". End of stream Spiff: "I've died tot Art. Literally noone has ever died to Art, but I have".

[@romxxii]

pro tip: do a 1-hour bed rest prior to any Survival shenanigans. Yes, my Survival Nate is a narcoleptic.

[@not_that_person]

You can also do a 0 hour nap if you start sleeping and immediately press Esc to wake up. It doesn't help in this stream though, due to the 1 life only rule.

[@h-leath6339]

Ok, I have to agree with the pie rant. Pie skills are all about how good you are at making the crust. That's why my girl always made the crust and I made the filling when we made savory pie. Skilled crustery is a dark art that involves alchemy I'm pretty sure.

[@gonzalolongone]

[@toptextbottomtext1454]

Hey Spiff (and anyone else who didn't know this), there is a hidden feature in terminals that can allow you to unlock them easily. If you hover over and find any open bracket/parenthesis combo (e.g. [ ], ( ), { }, ( / ), etc.), it removes any duds/false answers, up to four times if I recall correctly. This works for all terminals.

[@FlashDAH]

I've spoke to 3 gamers who didn't work this out themselves, I confiscated their gamer credentials, embarrassing !

[@SCh1m3ra]

Might be more than "up to 4" because I've removed 5 duds *and* had a reset on a particularly egregious terminal (but I didn't have any hacking and minimum intelligence, which iirc affects the PW gen)

[@mysterious_guy]

It hurt my brain to watch that

[@collinvancamp5363]

I’d love to see a ton more of this series

[@RondomName9277]

I love it. it's like watching him play skyrum. Everything is so broken that it somehow works and no one knows how or why it works

[@mathewmontavon9079]

There's a common glitch with Preston where, if one of his group doesn't make it from the Museum of Freedom to Sanctuary, he won't do Preston things and you won't be able to interact with Sturgis. I usually Save/ Sleep at a house outside Concord, right after killing the Deathclaw but before going back into the Museum, so that there's a Save state to reload if this happens. You also might try traveling to the Museum, finding any stray NPCs, and boxing them to their senses.

[@jaeusa160]

My Marcy Long got stuck in the charred husk of an exploded car that moved itself like 3ft further into the road from its original spot. -_-

[@mathewmontavon9079]

Oh, that's a good one. 😂

[@walrusoverlord9479]

What a work of Art

[@neonnoir9692]

Just explore and stay away from Sanctuary for a few days, Preston can sort himself out sometimes on his own. As long as you didn't lose any of the group on the way to Sanctuary.

[@Naztash]

Random encounters like Art, are actually a known threat in Survival.

[@drsuessphd2902]

Spoilers dammit...

[@dschaef91]

Really enjoy this and the Skyrim stream spiff. Would love to see more content like this.

[@h-leath6339]

Completely missed opportunity Howard!: game physics: when you kill an animal with a flame or energy weapon and loot the corpse anything that would normally appear as "meat" should instead be the cooked version. Gooify weapons should result in "soup" items and poison "chem buffs". That way you could fill your larder with food by hunting mole rats with a laser. It makes sense on many levels. Also, I solved the Marcy problem. Build a guard post as far away as the boundriess will let you and assign her to it. At least then nobody can hear her complain.

[@fredrikhelland8194]

Another! This has been some of the most entertaining F4 streams i’ve seen.

[@k-lumschmit8813]

Aww unlucky dude, very much enjoyed this so +1 for another go! Maybe with another build?

[@bmuzza5897]

Would love to catch another of these!!!! If you do - I think it would be more than fair to start survival mode from when you get the gang back to sanctuary so if it bugs out - you can speed run through the opening sections again (even before stream) on non-survival difficulty as you have spent most of the last two streams just trying to debug Sanctuary.

[@chillygunslinger2849]

I believe I had that glitch, save by sleeping, reload the game completely. When you come back into the game, go directly to Garvey and talk with him. If you do any other action besides talking he will reglitch.

[@grundged]

Looking forward to the paint drying stream!

[@Kreeaas]

super fun stream, Spiff. Please do more of these. I'm always laughing watching your work.

[@dylangriffin2860]

i could last forever on survival without dying. great vid !!! love the content, love from buffalo, NY~!~!

[@themudpit621]

It frustrates me a little that people don't get the hacking game. The letters that match in both letter and position are used to discern the next viable guess. It's more a process of elimination than 'trial and error'. It's very similar to the old table top code breaking game 'mastermind'. I can well appreciate that dyslexic people might find it annoying though.

[@sketchbook8177]

Funny that Spiff chose watching paint dry as his example of a bad stream, when watching paint dry was one of RT’s best streams.

[@charlesfranks1902]

Harcourt Fenton Mudd! Yes, Spiff has started cloning his worst nightmare.

[@winstonwho]

you need to talk to preston at the entrance of the settlement. there is a trigger point down there and you can soft lock yourself unless you can get preston near the bridge. Glad to see the "update" fixed small issues like this

[@charlesdaugherty7780]

Thanks!

[@LMixir]

@The Spiffing Brit There's a very easy way to solve the hacking minigame: if you move your cursor around in the "random symbol" part of the screen, you will notice that when you have a set of left and right parentheses, curly or square brackets on the same line, it marks them as if it was a word, if you click them, they remove one of the "dud" password options (there is usually one that resets the number of tries, but if you hunt around for all the available "clickies", you are left with either only one option, or less options than you have tries) this makes the minigame trivially easy even without bothering to look at the number of letters that match or not.

[@jackson102881]

I'm always convinced the people that hate the mini game, just don't know how to do it or bother to learn it. It's honestly very simple and you can guarantee success every time without getting locked out.

[@vulkandrache1928]

@@jackson102881 The hacking game needed a way to uncheck words you are sure arent correct.

[@gregorynordquist278]

this way takes longer than if you pick the first three, exit if wrong and try again, and again until u guess the right one. usually takes me only a couple tries

[@nightlistic8012]

Hey Spiff! Joov discovered that Radscropions are very weak to getting punched unarmed by power armor. It stuns them and if you put some points into unarmed you can punch them and ghouls easier.
