re: **Official Fallout 4 Thread** (Links and videos in OP)

So I played for an hour or so last night, and after thinking about what I did for that hour, I probably wasted too much ammo for virtually nothing...what a waste. I just need to go to the Corvega plant.

I'm guessing the Brotherhood missions go on for as long as you have undiscovered areas. I have a few mission other than them but most of them kick my arse. I guess I just need to randomly explore more or continue with the Brotherhood missions until I level up more, lvl 16 right now.

Easy money in FO4 (legit too)

1) At your settlements with a lot of water nearybe (Santcuary, Castle)
2) Setup up multiple water treatment / purifiers
3) Power them all
4) Setup your settlement supply lines
5) Sit back and wait a full 24 hours (in game time)
6) Go to your workbench and collect the purified water you now have

I have water for 60 at the Castle. And water for 40 at Sanctuary. So I get around 30-40 bottles of purified water per day.

7) Fast Travel to Diamond City.
8) Sell the purified water for 10+ caps per (depends on your charisma and how many points you've put into the Cap Collector perk).



The best I've done is 12 caps per.
So on average 35 * 12 = 420 caps almost every 24 hours in Fallout 4. Which is about as much as most vendors will carry at my level anyhow. This method will give you a lot of caps consistently with little to no effort. Now with this added income and the Scrounger perk (under Luck). I don't have to worry about running low on ammo on Hard difficulty. And every once and a while I'm able to buy some nice stuff from a vendor at my settlements or in Diamond City.

Castle is the best IMO.

It's huge. Surround by radiated swamp and the sea. And there are huge concrete walls surrounding you, minus 2 holes in the wall. If you block off the hole on the West side of it, then you only have to worry about raiders from one side and you have the high ground of the castle walls. It's damn near impenetrable the way i have it setup now.

for me:
Sanctuary is the bare minimum + plus tons of water
Drive in Theater is a nice settlement of mine. (Centrally located in the map)
Castle is almost maxed out size wise and settlers wise.

Whenever I have only an hour, I don't want to play. I feel like I wouldn't accomplish anything in that time

I played for 15 minutes last night before pure exhaustion set it. I scrapped a few items. I attempted to assign a settler to a job but couldn't figure it out. I know someone posted it here but was too tired to look it up.

I feel more accomplished when I build something cool because the building system is so crude. It feels good Frankensteining a wall together because the prefab walls don't fit right.

My biggest complaint was not being able to adjust the size of stairs and walls. Yeah, I want a cathedral ceiling, so what go frick yourself. But I think I just read that you can actually do that so now I wait patiently until 5:00.
