My biggest Pet Peeves with Fallout 4

Post » Fri Dec 11, 2015 10:15 am

One of my personal pet peeves with Fallout 4 is Preston Garvey. Each and every time I come back to Sanctuary to report in the [censored] is nowhere to be found. So, you have to run around the compound looking for the SOB. The other thing with Garvey is his attitude and how he orders you to go take care of something and then walks away, so you can’t finish your conversation. I just want to shot the bastard and put him out of his freaking misery.

Another pet peeve is coming back to Sanctuary to get some badly needed rest only to find some [censored] in your house and in your bed.

I also want to put an end to the husband and wife, in Sanctuary, who are always pissing and moaning about their situation. I am sick of hearing it.

“Oh, wait….there are still more pet peeves to come!?!”

I am absolutely annoyed of how [censored] up it is to build houses and fences in Fallout 4.

When the video game starts making you angry….angry enough to yell and scream at it, then it is no longer fun to play.

Assign him to a guard post. I did this and he's always been there or around there when I come back to sanctuary.

My biggest pet peeve (and it's pretty small) is that your character repetitively says "your thoughts" when you ask companions their thoughts on things. Your companions will say different things but you just keep "your thoughts?" in the exact same way.

That's a minor one for me too. No offense intended to Bethesda or the voice actor, but her lines are exceedingly limited.

Just set up a home at the Red Rocket and never enter Sanctuary again. Works.

I loved that, but mostly because this came to mind:

I agree, I'm finding the Red Rocket is the perfect size.

Not too small, not too big.

That's exactly what it's like! :lmao:

It doesn't happen with your companions, but if you keep asking merchants about their surroundings and the people, they get really angry at you for being repetitive. The Mr.Handy bartender in the Goodneighbour bar is a perfect example of this.

My biggest pet peeve is doing all the base building and juuuuuuuuust getting it right and suddenly... THE GAME FREAKIN FREEZES UP!

Just happened to me again. So now I have got to faff around with the stupid autosnapping to get everything just right again. Actually I think I'm going to go play Tomb Raider for a bit... Fallout is great and all but the damned freezing/crashing bugs are making the game a pain.

I'm annoyed that Preston and his followers have to be in Sanctuary, and that they're all essential even though only Preston is required for quests. And as if just being there wasn't annoying enough they're all bothersome to be around. There's the guy who mopes all the time, the chick who's a total [censored] for no reason, the drugged up old bat who always repeats "you're tied to this place kid, your energy"

The PC is nearly (or over, depending) 2 and a 1/2 centuries old, she's the "kid". /rant

Boy, I can relate to all that. Preston belongs at the fort with that crotchety ole' bag. They would make a great couple, those two. Their attitudes are really starting to get under my skin.

Yea, I'm getting close to moving out of Sanctuary to the Red Rocket station in Concord with Cait. Before I do that, I'm destroying all the defenses. :evil:

She is a self-proclaimed badass adventurer, likely with several dozen years of experience. I kind of like the fact that she's so mellow, but also gives off this wizened aura.

Another thing that thoroughly pisses me off is when you are trying to have someone step out of their armor and the [censored] cursor whats to you to issue a [censored] command instead. You literally have to save the game > close out of the game > and reload the game before the son-of-a-[censored] will allow you to talk. I sure [censored] hope Bethesda fixes this [censored], because I am getting tired of this [censored].

I am so hating this game right now that it isn't funny! :brokencomputer:

Great [censored] Preston took my armor and put it on when we were at the fort and now it is missing. It isn't at the fort nor is it in Sanctuary. Bethesda I am getting [censored] tired of the NPCs taking my [censored] [censored] and sleeping in MY [censored] bed.

At least you can get rid of the junkie fortune teller by giving her drugs until she dies, which is way too soft of an ending for someone so annoying. Can't do anything about the others, except dress them is fugly clothes.

1. assign each NPC their own bed
2. TAKE THE FC OUT OF THE PA WHEN YOUR NOT USING IT SO NPCS CAN'T STEAL IT.
3.learn the game before you moan
4.profit

I have a guard post in the area on the other side from the Old North Bridge and assigned Jun Long to it. He may travel up and down the road a bit, but rarely ever says anything to me unless I talk to him first. Marcy Long is constantly in the melon patch tending melons with Mama Murphy, so I rarely ever see or hear them either. Preston just wanders up and down the road, or sometimes is in the house where I assigned his bed. Preston is really the only one that interferes with me due to the random quests. (I'm also very amused by him since he seems to be the Fallout 4 version of Fargoth. :) )

As for NPCs sleeping in the wrong beds, assign that NPC to a different, unused bed, and your bed will be free again!

You can build a bell that summons all everyone in the settlement, it's pretty handy for finding roaming companions. Won't the fix his personality and voice acting though,.

For some reason Preston bugged out on me anyway. I can report my missions, but I can't equip him or recruit him as a follower. Not that I wwanted to. Had him with me in an earlier try and find gim the least impressing of the possible companions.

As far as pet peeves go, I go with the UI and the key mapping on PC. I also go with Supermutant suiciders. They always come out of the blue to nuke you. It's not fun to be oneshot killed by anything.
