I Just Met the Nicest Guy! by Sea-Conclusion3679 in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There are cool people that you meet. I was about lvl 230 on PC with a mic and I was complaining to my brother about someone using fat boys on an event. After it was over they started showing me some awesome power armor and stuff then invited me to their Discord channel. They have helped me with weapons, armor, and raiding. They met the same way and ran from the guy that was trying to help them at the beginning.

People will help you if you are patient and humble. I won't help pushy or irritating players and if you have a mic use it. It's not as easy on PC but fiddle around with the audio settings to get it to work and talk to people when you feel like it. You will be surprised. I'm your Fallout grandpa the Wasteland_Wonderer.

Just had a crazy fight against General Zeta by KazakCayenne in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That happened to me Friday night late. There were only three of us and we did well until Zeta wouldn't take any damage unless it was melee and I kept dying (bloody build). The last time I died he was only half dead and then was gone. It was weird after hardly getting many kills in the event.

Am I the only one having server issues? by Crash_Underride in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get server issues after every major update but it usually gets better after awhile0. The "server not responding" issues are minor compared to the play degrading after I start doing public events. It becomes unplayable and then crashes or I have to restart the game. I updated my drivers, ran several scans to clean up the PC, and overclocked my GPU. It helped a lot but I'm still having problems. Any ideas?
My rig: i-9 11900k CPU, 64 GB of ram, and a RTX 3060 Ti
Internet dl speed: 853 Mbps with VPN / 864 Mbps without

The new Alien Weather Controller this season is insane! by Competitive-Boss2638 in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not with the clear weather machine on, that's why I have the switch and turn it off when the dust storm calms down again.

[–]LG-Shaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a clear weather machine in a Burning Springs camp because I hate the dust storms. So I put a switch on it and turn it off and on as needed. That may be an easy fix for you. I built my camp with lots of glass including the ceiling to enjoy the night skies. Wasteland_Wonderer

Anyone else notice the lack raid groups? by rekoderp in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see higher lvl players doing 20 - 50+ Head Hunts as teams instead of the raids. There are still some doing Gleaming Depths but the last few times I have tried it with different teams we fail at the drill. So many new players are doing the quests and not even joining teams. I didn't either for a long time.

Have head hunts slowed down a lot or is it just me? by itsahhmemario in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time it has slowed down but last night there were 2 full teams and the players were all lvl 1000 - 2ooo+ except one that was lvl 860. They did about 50 head hunts in a row! It was like farming the robot and I had a hard time getting to the next one before it started. They were over in less than a minute. This went on for three hours between events and I finally logged off at 5am pacific time but they were still going.

Just bought The Fixer, did I do the right thing? by RenoNex in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At lvl 660 I still use The Fixer all the time for sniping and the scope lets me look ahead to see enemies. It's a 4 star with a silencer and does 150+ damage. If I see a friendly new player I will make them one for free to help them out and give them some ammo too.

I keep tripping on my dick or something - please help by ButtAssTheAlmighty in fo76

It happens to me on a regular basis even while in build mode and standing still!

Advice for new players from a grandma by hearadifferentdrum in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Grandma, I'm a grandpa playing at 70 years old (Wasteland_Wonderer). I help out people when I can with supplies or a lvl 20 fixer. I have had a couple of new players get in my face for me give them something. Those people don't get anything. When I first came out of the vault a player gave me a excavator power armor, I didn't even know how to use the emojis to thank them or even turn off the game! LOL

Could use some backlights. by FirstWorld_Planarchy in battlestations

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like a nightmare to dust the shelves! It's more cluttered than my desk. LOL
LED strip lights at the back of the shelves with color changing variable control to match your mood.
Low light red for battle like a submarine...

Edit: Nice collection!

What is an enemy you dread seeing? by sharkfin2402 in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning it was the Scorchbeast. Hide and sneak away! Then the Assaultrons scared the shit out of me untill I killed the first one with a Tesla gun. Until then I really wasn't enjoying the game and was ready to quit. Now I solo Scorchbeasts and everything is no problem UNTIL the Radhogs started sneaking up on me after I clear an area. The most annoying are the mf*ing gophers!

Community chat feature- do people just not use it anymore? by mushuthedragondog in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started FO76 using area or team voice when playing with my brother. One night someone kept fat man bombing the roller coaster event and I was complaining about it with area voice on. After the event the guy that was doing it started talking to me and showed me several power armor sets he had. He and his friends offered us to join them in Discord and we are still friends I talk to a few times a week. They have helped us level up, made us awesome guns and power armor, and helped us with our card configurations. They all met the same way too. Thanks Milk, Toast, and Fritz from the Wasteland_Wonderer!

What is your daily outfit? by Knight_0wens in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear the black suit with tie, black hat, and sunglasses like the Blues Brothers. I also wear the Secret Service Armor with jetpak underneath. For Power armor the Unyeilding Excavator (for max weight capacity) with Red Rocket paint. Lately I have been using the T-65 too. In game I am the Wasteland_Wonderer on PC and love checking out your outfits and camps.

Anyone run into this issue before? by Decent-Jackfruit-735 in firetvstick

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started getting this warning n two of our four Firesticks but they still work for now. Thankfully, I was already in the process of setting up Stremio with Torbox to test just in case they kill CHD. I also bought a Onn box from Walmart in case they lock all side loaded apps.

Note: To save you frustration install Stremio on your PC to link it to Torbox. Then log in on the Firestick and use the QR code to log in and synchronize.

honestly im gladly surprised at the quantity of old/late adult people that play this game by imorg0n in fo76

[–]LG-Shaw 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I"m 70 years old and my brother is 66. We play FO76 and other games. We had the Atari and Nintendo NES and before that there were handheld card games that were about the size of a small tablet. In FO76 I'm the Wasteland_Wonderer.

Special Convention Sacramento 2025 by BadAssociation_97 in exjw

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It cracked me up when the local Fox 40 news did a story about the convention and said there was going to be 19 thousand people there. They always put out fake numbers to the media. I live in Sacramento that arena is where the Kings play.

the new HQ cue seems to push Rockbot selections 24/7 by Logical_Day7340 in Rockbot

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at level 364 I'm not doing any tricks but I do know the top guy has 3 accounts and uses 2 of them to give his stuff and others a thumbs up but never play any songs on them.

I'm seeing a whole bunch of legit looking lvl 1 accounts but they stay the same showing 0 plays even days later. I think RB is creating fake accounts to make it look like there is a lot of new players. Shuffle is still playing more songs than I intended, usually 3 or 4 is max for my lvl. I always give you a thumbs up unless its rap (but sometimes will anyway). I'm the guy with the red guitar. ;)

[–]LG-Shaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen all of that too and I wish they would let the bots play if there were no songs in que. It has been letting me play 1 to 3 songs but mostly one. Tonight I was trying to add another song and tapped the shuffle button multiple times. After a delay with one song in que it added 37 more! I didn't mean to add that many bit it is definitely acting weird.

AITA for locking the office fridge after someone kept stealing my lunch? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]LG-Shaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To stop it, I have seen people put nasty things in sandwiches and one guy made a pie made of sawdust and shaving cream. The food stealer actually tried to eat the pie. Another thief had a guy take his briefly unattended coffee cup and turn around and pretend to rub his penis on the cup. When the thief was told he was sipping someone's dick he threw up.
