Fallout 4

I just got kicked out and I think our ties may be cut but surely there is a lot left in the game because so much of the map hasn't been discovered

 

Yep.

Again, trying not to give too much away for a first timer...you should make some other friends....Minutemen, Railroad, or Brotherhood....and see how they feel about the Institute. Also, explore. A lot. Just pick a random direction and go thataway. There's just so much to find out by accident!

 

Weird , the guards wouldn't go past the edge of the trees on either side of the path for me even though I stored and re-assigned the guard posts a couple times , plus crafting out there was what triggered my 4 crashes in an hour . I was trying to re-bulld the approaches to the guard posts each time I had a crash

 

Hmm.

I know there was a LOT of trash, scrub brush, fallen trees, etc out in that area that I cleaned up/scrapped to get out of the way. Perhaps they are having issues pathing around that stuff? I dunno.

 

I've met all those guys but not sure a direction to lead, I do need to just explore by picking a random spot like you said.

 

Each of the factions also have their own storylines and repeatable quests. Some can get old after a while, yea, but doing them a few times to see the world is a good way open up the map and get XP & drops

Talk to EVERYone in town or at the faction bases, you'd be amazed at how many little flavor side quests there are

 

That's what I've been doing and holy spit everyone's got a favor. That's how I discover new places on my way to those quests. But I've got maybe 25 or so places I've found

 

Anybody wearing the Marine Combat armor ?

 

I am.

Granted, it's a bit moot since I'm normally hopping around in a jetpack X-01 suit, but still. It's the best suit I've found so far, fully modded anyways.

 

I'm just doing the " Find the marine armor " side quest right now , I'll probably upgrade to that stuff once I mod it

Oh and I found a Legendary laser rifle with unlimited ammo

 

Sadly, the version with the best stats is the Zealot's ones, and they look like the CoA's armor, so it looks kinda crappy. Another good reason to stay on the power armor

 

Isn't the Assault Marine armor higher stats ?

 

m

That IS the Assault Armor I'm wearing. The upgrade to it at the Armor workbench IS to the Zealot's skinned version.

 

Am I reading this chart wrong ?

Sorry, I mis-spoked...Inquisitors, not Zealots. That's my bad there.

But yes, this is what the Inquisitors "upgrade" at the armor workbench looks like.

 

Gotcha

 

Yea, sorry about that Inquis/Zealot mixup. Totally brainfarted on that one.

 

No worries

 

Where you find that New Vegas lookin armor?

 

Which?

The worn armor is the Inquisitor's armor from Far Harbor (quest line in Acadia IIRC)... see Oz's link upthread for the wiki page

The blue power armor is the Quantum X-01 from Nuka World
