Anyone else "on hold" until the DLCs & Mod Tools

Post » Wed Mar 02, 2016 7:07 am

Well I decided to unload all my Mods and start a new character for the upcoming DLC and more importantly the official Mod Tools come out. So I created a new guy, got through the first bits and I'm just sitting in Sanctuary (level 11 from building and a few localish quests) waiting....



It's gonna be a LONG wait until April!

I went on hold some time ago, maybe the end of December or early January.


Simply put, I was going through the storyline too fast for my tastes, so when this became evident, I stopped playing.


I'm going to try and play through all the DLCs before going back to the main storyline.

This may be tricky, since I don't know how definitively how many DLCs are planned.


Also, I've been waiting for the mod tools to come out before I start rebuilding Sanctuary Hills.

The first reason is that I want the pristine version of Sanctuary Hills to build around, not the pile of decrepit debris version.

Plus, I want to rebuild the Settlement construction objects to be more clean and not ramshackle, so they go well with the clean version of Sanctuary Hills.


I'm uncertain if I can make mods, since I've never managed to make serious ones before.

But I think if I apply enough grit, determination, decent tutorials/manuals, I'll be able to do it.

Haven't put a hold on playing, but I've put a hold on starting the new character I was planning so my current high level one is enjoying an extended stay. It's the new survival mode I'm waiting for. I want my next characters entire story to unfold under the survival rules.

I'm waiting more for the survival mode than the DLC to start a new character, but other than the redundant mods I'm not uninstalling any of them.

I plan to wait until the GECK and first two DLC have been released. I would like to wait until Far Harbor but I'm too impatient.

Nope bought the season, and frankly laughing at everyone who didn't. You missed out on a deal.

I have the Season Pass. What does that have to do with waiting?

I'm not too interested in Survival Mode. I unloaded my mods in anticipation of them being updated when the Editor comes out. Not to mention more and higher quality mods should rain down!

I'm having a hard time playing now, knowing that survival mode is imminent. I'm a console guy who's been a Beth fan starting at Morrowind. This game finally made me upgrade to an Xbox One (FO4 Bundle, of course). Unfortunately, the game hasn't really grabbed me. I have about 45 hours in and have not completed the MQ; however, I'm looking to start all over when Survival hits. The list of features tha came out last week honestly has me more excited than the DLC announcements, even though my wife got me the Season Pass for Christmas. I'm also fairly skeptical about the Mod situation playing out as seamlessly as we've been led to believe. So, Survival is the best I can hope for to make the base game feel complete.

No. But the wait is killing me.



I'm still playing Fallout regularly, building things, find out things, but I'm really eager to play the new stuff.



Apparently, I've been trying to adapt to walk more and less saving (saving only at a Settlement or whenever during emergency).

Ill be honest, I have been waiting for the Survival mode overhaul... I find that Running/Teleporting around like a Post Apocalyptic super hero that can grow his or her arms and legs back on at will rather boring. So I have been playing Neo Scavanger until Bethesda patch fallout 4 into finished game.

I'm mostly taking a break from it right now. When the new survival mode is released I'm going to start a new character. I'm looking forward to the DLC, especially Far Harbor, but I'm looking forward to survival mode more. My survival mode character will probably be the one that I'll keep for the long haul and use throughout all of the future DLC.

I'm taking a nice break from Fallout for awhile. I have plenty of other games that need to be beaten, but fallout has prevented me from doing that :smile:

Yeah, I built a few new characters after my first run and then realized I might get accidentally sick of the game if I kept playing before all the dlc comes out... I can play each dlc as it comes out with my old character and then start a new game once everything is released. Like you, I have a back catalogue of games that built up while I was playing fallout. I just need to get into them.

I'm waiting for all DLCs to come out before I start playing FO4 for the first time.

I'm not really sure whether to hold off or not. I want to start a new character for survival mode, but I'm a fair bit in to my current (first) character. So I may just get the MQ out of the way and restart when survival mode drops.

I couldn't play Skyrim at all until the Unofficial Patch came out. Pretty much every time I play Fallout 4 I spend an hour or more fixing broken crap, so I should wait for this on FO4 as well.



No Bethesda game is ever done until someone else fixes it, apparently. Oblivion was a little more reliable out of the gate (so to speak).



I kind of knew better but I let my optimism get the better of me.

I am still waiting for Tiina De Luca and Silver Shroud to be fixed.

I want to move Tiina to Sanctuary Hills and get my new improved Silver Shroud gear (the stuff you get for encouraging Kent to continue his campaign against neer'do'wells).


Neither of which was fixed in the last patch or (according to the notes), this patch.

Did the Automaton DLC come out? Or was that is just a patch?
