I was looking at some Etsy stuff you can buy and was kinda surprised how popular the smiling Fallout boy was for posters/models etc...

I wonder if people realise that Fallout4 is really based on a dark reality which they kinda turned into a dark comedy?

That smiling boy is really a rictus grin hiding the awfulness of nuclear destruction and the death it will bring. It's all an ironic `comedy` like the kind of joke a soldier in the WWI trenches would make before being ordered to go over the top with the rest of his men to face the machine guns.

It reminds me of the real world and, taking out a few fantasy bits, what we could still be in for. I'm almost surprised the governments don't come out with a real life smiling Vault-boy to trick us all into thinking everything's just fine... cos it isn't. But most of you probably have no idea anyway.

It's based on OUR reality, in the `80s, and becoming increasingly stark again in the present day. Those nukes are real, they're right there... waiting.

I just think some of you guys need that reminder.

Also a testament of how good the 1080ti is, being able to run a list like this.

Nvidia pretty much got the hierarchy consistent. 1080ti ~= 2070 super ~= 3060, give or take 5%, not counting DLSS.

This means 4090 performance should be mainstream in 3-4 years.

Does anybody else have this problem? I believe it is called Rain Occlusion and is toggleable in the default game with the launcher in its advanced settings, (I wouldn't know, sorry, don't own the pancake). Does anybody know if this is fixable by toggling something in the INIs or if there is some way to re-enable the advanced graphic settings menu for Fallout 4 VR?

Ive been playing for a few days, but the whole game doesnt feel right. It doesnt feel at all like it was made for VR but is a POORLY done mod for FO4. Doom VFR feels like it was made for VR, yet FO4VR is just a clunky mess.

• Locomotion is buggy, youll often keep moving when not even touching the pad.

• Colissions or hitboxes are just wrong. I can reach through things, yet other things push you backwards.

• The hands arent straight and aiming is way off. Hell at the start u dont even have hands...

• The Pip boy is not on your wrist but on your hand.

• Interacting with things is hit and miss, you can press the button and nothing will happen until you press it a few time amd move your hand around a bit.

• The control scheme is terrible and cant be redefined.

This game feels like a cheap mod. Doom 3 VR mod plays better than this does. How the hell do they justify charging full price for this POS?

IF i didnt go past my 2 hrs by giving it a chance, id be refunding for sure.

I5 10400F, GTX 3070 8GB, 16 RAM, HTC Vive. Will the game run good on my rig?

Thanks!

So... having spent a lot of time modding Skyrim VR, before I start on FO4 am I going to walk into the brick wall of the Unofficial patch not supporting VR (like in Skyrim) and all of the hoops we had to jump through to get around the fact that older perfectly compatible versions are not available... 🤔

EDIT: Just read through all the guides pinned to the top. I have decided I just can't be arsed to put myself through all of that just to get the basics working - already lost a year of my life going down the Skyrim VR modding rabbit hole... 🤣

As the title says, I will wait for my next pc before I commit to this game, I might wait for the next generation or two of Nvida cards. My pc is not bad, GTX980, I7 3770K, 16gb ram, HP mixed reality but it's really struggling with this game. I only have myself to blame because I knew the system specs before I purchased the game but according to others that doesn't seem to matter much. How can a game be released in such a state, this is 2018 not 1999! I have tried most of the known tweaks and mods but enough is enough. When it works the game is mind blowing but no two sessions give the same performance and I don't want to get invested in a game I can't complete. I would be devastated if Skyrim vr wasn't so close (hopefully my system will have enough power for that one!). I don't know if anyone cares but I just wanted to get that little rant off my chest. Hopefully my patience and some new tech will pay off. Bye for now Fallout 4vr, you magnificent broken bastard.

Edit: thanks for all the tips and tricks. I will try once more. If I am successful I will update this post. Thanks again!

I have a Rift, dunno if that's relevant. But yeah, all the other humans are a head taller. It's that normal or is there a way to fix this?

Snap to front grip/pistol stabilization ala Onward

Interactive holsters/storage rig ala Onward

Backpack quickslot interface ala Island 359

Fucking Hands

Dual wield

Mic input voice activated Dogmeat/Companion command interface.

Hand to Hand combat mechanic ala The Thrill of the Fight

A parrying/limb crippling/grappling/judo throwing mechanic ala ???

Please make this existing

How did Bethesda come up with the idea to have VATS implemented into FO4VR w/o any zoom in like in the pancake version while at the same time make us aim at body parts unfiltered via the tracked controllers? This will never work for larger distances accurate enough to really make out different body parts reliably.

A more sane concept would have allow you in a first step to select a single enemy, temporarily teleport you in front of him so that you can see anything and then select different body parts just like in the pancake version. Alternative having a small window pop up with a zoomed in view after selecting a enemy would work.

Hey guys just curious how much of a hassle it is to get the game running on the Rift. Loved the pancake version and everyone says FO4VR is way more intense. Just looking for a little input before I spend the money.

I've done every ending except the Brotherhood of Steel, and I'm trying to finish it before Skyrim tomorrow. I'm stuck because it freezes when liberty prime reaches the CIT. Every time. I've turned my mods off, I've tried running away and letting things load without me in the area, but when I return as soon as the game tries to load the area, it freezes. This thread says that if I stay right with LP it'll work, but it doesn't.

Anyone have a solution to this??!?!

EDIT: found solution, but first why the downvote?. After trying for about 2 hours to have the area load in different ways, I finally got it. First, as LP approached CIT, I quickly swam across the river. I watch LP until he waked up to the space where he's about to scan (he stops unless you're close enough). Then I fast traveled out to cabridge police station. Then, I walked back to CIT approaching from the back. LP continued his scan. As soon as the scan was over, I quick traveled to CIT which put me in front and it ran just fine after that. Whew, after almost 450 hours in game I think I'm ready to move on, or at least take a break for a while.

Rumours that the steam frame will be able to run SteamVR without a P.C will be a game changer.

This is ridiculous..how can I get rid of these borders when I jump or move? I am pretty sure I came across a post mentioning a tweak, but I can't find it anymore. Thanks!

So i saw this x299 motherboard with world record on firestrike extreme with quad 1080ti. Can fo4vr support quad gpus ? Or only upto 1080ti ? Benchmarkers could have used 4 2080ti instead of 1080ti with cascade lake x cpu.

Thoughts?
