Thought the 'size' bar in settlement building mode was referring to the population. Then I got the 'you cannot build any other things' message when it filled... Sad, sad times...

Drop all your weapons, then store them. Size will go down. Game thinks you are removing from the settlement for some reason.

You can get your guns back out afterwards obviously.

Think I might be playing this game too much - was cleaning out the garage on the weekend for hard rubbish, everything I picked up I found myself wondering what crafting components could this be broken down into.

building mode, highlight them, command them, go and click on the artillery.

When 3 came out I was sdoing glove work at the gym a few days later and started to picture the VATS system....I knew then it was time to step away for a bit.

Great tip! Thank you very much sir!

Since you will have to be in attendance to get the benevolent leader trophy then don't worry about the perks for the level 3 stores yet, there will probably be plenty of chances that you will need to spend some filler points and just get them then.

I've only had about 3 or 4 messages about something under attack. I read that apparently it was more likely on your more well supplied settlements but every time for me it has been shitty like places like Hangman's Alley or some little farms I've left with like 2 people.

l've been playing for twenty hours or so and helped one of my small settlements which was under attack without any problems.

Last night I received message that Sanctuary was under attack (my best settlement with 12 people and good food water defense etc). When I get there half a dozen synths are there, so I destroy them all but nothing happens.

If I fast travel somewhere else I instantly get a message that I failed to help sanctuary.

When I go back all settlers are dead.

If I load back to Sanctuary after the battle and walk out of the town boundary I get the marker for "Help Sanctuary" miscellaneous quest show up. As soon as i walk back inside the boundary the marker disappears. I cant seem to resolve this quest.

Anyone got any ideas?

Not sure if this will be the case for you but I had something similar happen with another settlement, in my case the last enemy got stuck behind a building. Bit of a pain, had to walk around the settlement for ages to find him.

You can drop out of combat if you stay hidden even if there are enemies still around making it seem like you got everyone. Not something as silly as may be there is an enemy or two left somewhere? Should get notification once all invaders are dead, if not then double check the perimeter for a straggler that didn't join the fight.

If that is the case, or you can't finish up a mission. It's a good ideo to trigger VATS as you walk around. It will normally pick up an enemy location even if you can't. You many not be able to hit them, but at least you can find them.

In fact a little hack for those who care enough, when walking around hit the VATS button at times as it can help locate hidden nasties like Rad Scorpions etc.

Yeah scoured the area for a good half hour but found nothing.

....hmmm just thought of something - I have Preston Garvey as my follower - could this be the problem? will try changing back to dogmeat or McReady tonight and see if I have any luck....

I do this especially when traveling through built up areas to try and spot lurking ghouls, supermutants and skulls.

Speaking of supermutants, any best way to take them down? One or two in the open in isolation I don't mind, but a camp or an interior zone with them and I'm stuffed. The suiciders are fine because I can shoot their arm. The others are tanks and a group always wreck me.

I loaded up on precision and concentrated fire. I tend focuss on one at a time and VATS head shot the bejeebus out of them, and then shoot and cover whilst waiting for my Action Points to load back up. Works most times for me.

Rocket Launcher or pick em off with head shots from a distance with sniper rifle - stay hidden or run fast. get the hounds first!

The idiot savant popped for me handing in a quest at the memory den last night. Soooo good. Picked up rank 3 for lock picking (master) and now I can't remember where most of the master safes are! Wish there was a way to tag the map several times. It's the 23rd century afterall.

Paladin Danse is my favourite companion now. Does great damage and carries a shit tonne.

Try sleeping or waiting in a chair. If there are enemies still there it should notify you

Odd because you can't usually fast travel when there are still enemies

 

[Mancey]

I sometimes wish this game had a motorbike or the like that i could hoot around on

2 had a car you could rebuild and use to travel across the squares at a faster rate.

My vats perks are lacking, didn't go deep into perception or agility lol. Generally I snipe one or two from far but it's when I'm stuck indoors and several charge me. I'm built into pistols and crits but mysterious stranger has taken out a few supermutants for me

(Autocorrect just changed a misspelling of supermutants into super immigrants. PHEW)

 

[Mancey]

Like others say, snipe supers from afar (in real time...not vats), they are pretty stupid and have no idea where it's coming from.

Enclosed spaces, shotguns and assault rifles to the legs is my go to

Maybe try criticals on their legs, it will stop them from being able to run and charge you. Then you can better position yourself to take them on better. Also it sounds like you may need to make grenades your friend.

 

[Mancey]

Same goes for any melee opponents, ghouls etc. Take out the legs and they are screwed

Just an aside.. is McReady worth picking up as a companion? He wanted cash to join me and I was like lol nah mate

I took on my first super mutant brute last night. Kept sniping in real time.e and he kept turning around looking the other way asking where i was. They are a bit dumb just quietly.
