Been playing fallout since, well the start, currently playing fo4 and 76.

Looking forward to the tv show, but I have low expectations, its kinda hard to adapt the game to tv, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Finally got both fo4 and 76 to run in stupid-wide (5760x1080) however some of 76's menus are a bit wonky.

Anyways, wanted to say hi and I'm looking forward to posting here

76 turned out to be way more fun than I expected

It's better now with NPCs for sure. I'm just getting back into it and I'm having fun exploring again, super impressed with all the additions so far.

How is it for single player?

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

For me, it was fun exploring. However, you really need a jetpack for quick escapes.

Very fun tbh

My brother has one of those giant widescreen monitors and uses a mod to fix the menus.

im actually using 3-27" curved monitors, i used mods to make fo4 work, plus an ini change, took forever but its finally working. 76 was just an ini file change but I have not played 76 since they started to bring in NPCs so its been a minute.

Can you post a pic of your monitor setup? That sounds badass!

[–] UncleBadTouch@lemmy.ca 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You'll have to excuse my mess. My camera lens is cracked, so focus is a pain, and when I have the house RGB lights on and try to take a pic, it bleeds out badly.

That's awesome! What are your pc specs?

[–] UncleBadTouch@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

R5 5600x, MSI x570 mobo, 32Gb of 3200Mhz ram, soundblaster z sound card. The 5.1 surround is nice, but they are house stereo speakers, not the normal pc speakers, you can kinda see one of them on the left side, thats what the 2 lamps are on.

Far far too much RGB in the house, keyboard, mouse, fans, ram, soundcard, house lights, if i can make it rgb, i did! However this addiction started way back when pcs where still that cream colour and sad on the side under your monitor. I was the guy buying black standup cases and cutting my own hole in the side so you could see the guts.

Edit: Totally forgot to mention the monitors, 2 AOC 27" curved at 240hz and an older sceptre 27" 144hz.

I'm finally enjoying playing fo4 because I realized mods are a thing. Global stash anf weightless junk make it less stressful and annoying to manage inventory. I still wish there was a mod to let me automatically put stuff into a global stash or make weapons and apparel weightless as well.

There are auto looting mods that can store items in workshops.

Also, CROSS jetpack is great. Go find it ✈️
