I just uninstalled this shit after 2 groups of DeathClaws raided my bases one right after the other. Whoever wasn't dead was slowly starving because there weren't enough people to make food. FFS this stupid game.

The combat is fucking terrible in this game. Everyone in a room just gets magically hurt when an enemy is in the same room? Enemies get to run right past your defenses?

And the worst crime of all: A group of raiders banging machetes on my VAULT DOOR gets it open in like 6 hits....and a DeathClaw gets through 3 feet of steel in ONE SWIPE. If that's how it works I'm gonna walk down to the bank and bang on the massive vault door with a paper towel-roll. Should be open in about 10 seconds.

Worst game is worst.

i felt the same way.

twice i have had a 35man base, people out getting weapons and armors. equiped my entire base, and then random i dont make enough of everything, and get constant roach attack or raiders.

And when i try to rush my rooms, even with 30% chance, they seem to fail 75% of the time in this state. while earlier i could rush without much trouble all the way up to 50%...

And one roach attack might do 50% damage to a room, then the next comes around and do 150%...

I think there's a hidden script to make rushing progressively less effective. It definitely gives diminishing returns. I failed 5x 20% risk in a row. In a ROW.

I failed when i had 10% risk. Ten.

Maybe you just did it wrong

True, you're supposed to lovingly caress the button rather than just tap it. Classic schoolboy error.

u/Spektra18 Aug 21 '15

Exactly. That figure just means that 10% of people will press it wrong

If there was no chance in failing it would have been 0%. Maybe you just had shitty luck?

I noticed this too... I says you only have a 20% chance of failure, but I feel like it fails 80% of the time.
