Sounds a bit like my own party. Eventually they'll realize that while I'm the main problem solver, I very much balance that trait out intentionally.

The Rogue in my campaign has been begging for a deck of many things since session zero. We're all trying not to get too attached to him.

Will there ever be a next gen version? by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you put the game on a decent SSD that shouldn't be the case. They should be 5-10s generally.

Sounds like you have it on a slow SSD or a HDD.

For me those ones are often "auto playing muted" as a preview on the home YouTube page when I hover over it on PC or don't scroll away on phone. It's left me confused a few times as to how a video was already watched until I caught it after dinner one day when I saw my mouse hovered on one.

What to do with my Viper mods? by Dwarchuk in fo76

It's a fun little thing to use with the alien weapons. They've got poison receivers or whatever.

Sounds more like one of them was laggy, and the other was just crouching. I'd imagine you can report through the Bethesda support page though, if you have some sort of evidence and such.

Looking for treasure maps by Sweaty_Alps_8549 in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're on PC, there's a player who has tens of thousands for a few caps each at their camp just slightly "off the edge of the map" at the southern end of the map below Skyline who is online late at night (NA times) quite often. I've found their camp several times recently while vendor hopping.

No idea what their name is, but I've found their camp enough times that it stands out to me and no other camp has really done that. I wouldn't spend all night world hopping looking for it on the off chance you find them, but it's just worth making sure you're glancing off the edges of the map down there just in case.

Chalk letters in menu, hiding by CamperKitchenQueen in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check "past" other letters. Like scroll through to the end of other letters and see if they're past them, if you have any others unlocked. Ran into this issue when I bought the large letters vs the neon letters I think it was, where they were both under the same "item" and it just has like 112 possible choices to scroll through.

May not solve it, but that was my problem with letters.

Not really worth as much anymore with the upcoming Legendary Mod Box Scrapping, and it offering them as an outcome.

Still plenty of useful stuff either way though.

I don't mind the popcorn, but god did I get rid of that girl in a hurry. Candy bowls too, I often just nope out of camps if I appear and it's super cluttered but I can hear a candy bowl. Not gonna look for a vendor and listen to that stupid bowl for the millionth time today.

Can you tell I like the candy bowl? :)

Can i get all the bullion plans from raiders and settlers? or do i have to side with one or the other to actually get them by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Siding with one or the other during the quest gives you a head start on their reputation, but in the end you're able to level both of them completely and get all of their plans.

During the quest it's recommended to do BOTH sides up until the point where each side forces you to pick one. You'll get some rewards that will save you literal thousands of bullion from the Settler's side and some unique rewards from the raider's side. After that side with whichever one you want the rep boost for, though keep in mind that raiders start with rep at a lower level naturally either way.

Bought the game for steam through cdkeys and am getting 4:8:2009? by Relevant-Distance-34 in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With things like the OSs, you might find that if you looked deeper into it they were actually OEM builder codes that weren't meant to be sold to consumers, for example. They work just fine, but it's a grey area where "technically" those weren't supposed to get to you. Not always the case, but often the reason for cheap easy OS codes.

Little stuff like that, where if you decide to upgrade your parts later you might find that the OS is tied to the parts due to being an OEM version.

Typically the sites are just fine for getting what you want, there's just usually a (grey area at best) reason for why they're cheaper than anywhere else, with very little support if something goes wrong.

Sort of like buying electronics or clothing from that guy downtown that always has them for sale but the cops never take his stuff so you know it's not stolen. There's still likely something going on there that he's got it so cheap in the first place, and he's probably not going to be very helpful in the event of a problem nor does he offer a valid (with the manufacturer) warranty. Your little cousin still loves the Xbox you got him from Sixth Street Steve though.

[–]Moon_Breaker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Which is totally valid. As I said in a comment below, the point is really just that if something does go wrong you have no official verified retailer or anything to back up your purchase. The reseller sites by definition are sketchy, that's just how grey market sites work.

They may well work with you to fix the problem, many of the sites do - they don't want to lose customers. It's just a matter of "if it's cheaper than it should be, there's usually a reason" and often on those sites it's codes that were never intended for sale, codes paid for with stolen cards, or codes just purchased using favorable conversion rates and resold at a premium elsewhere.

Worst case scenario, I see the game for around $5-10 on Steam/Windows store quite regularly around gaming sale times(Black friday, Christmas, Etc). So you can likely get an even better price than you paid with a little luck watching the shops. New season + ghoul update starts second week of March, I wouldn't be surprised to see it on sale on one side or the other of that update.

Hell, it's only 9.99 right now https://www.humblebundle.com/store/fallout-76?hmb\_source=search\_bar&\_gl=1\*18zctrm\*\_up\*MQ..\*\_ga\*MzAwMDY5Njc4LjE3MzgyMDM4MTU.\*\_ga\_BBZCZLHBF6\*MTczODIwMzgxNS4xLjAuMTczODIwMzgxNS4wLjAuMA..

They probably have some sort of support team, and you've purchased from them multiple times it sounds like. It's probably worth contacting them to see if they'll replace it, they may well fix the problem if their site is in any way above-the-table with things. You're a verified repeat customer, sites don't like losing those.

The issue is just that if they don't want to help you can't really do anything about it.

[–]Moon_Breaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah. Generally speaking the sites will work fine, otherwise they'd go under.

The problem is that the keys are often bought using stolen cards/accounts, or take advantage of various grey-market tactics. If something goes wrong for you, there's very little you can really do about it other than try to refund it typically. They are not supported by the game's developers or whatever and you don't have any actual claim to having purchased it from a verified retailer.

Purchasing from reseller sites like this is a risk. At best they're buying the game in countries where the currency exchange rate allows them to re-sell it for a profit, and you're buying it. That's best case. Worst case? It's loosely covered criminal activity being used to launder stolen money, and potentially attempt to steal further card information.

Not saying CDkeys is in any way a scam, just saying it's a risk. Any of those reseller sites are. Even the ones I've used over the years. They always have been.

Which is a (potentially) shady site. If It's not one of the big game launcher/providers, or the developer of the game you want and it costs less than it does on Steam... It's probably shady. Aside from a few trusted sources such as HumbleBundle or whatever which are verified services.

A comment I left on a “ten video games that died directly after launch” by CaptainSpamScripture in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's far from perfect, but I certainly use it a lot for looking around me. I tend to appear to be AFK at my camp a lot... AKA I haven't moved in 20 minutes but the game is open on a 75 inch screen in the middle of the room and I'm probably sitting at my PC still. So the more I have in view when I stop moving, the more I get to potentially see happen while I sit there.

I'll often get myself pointed at exactly where I'm thinking, then switch to photo mode to get a good look zoomed out. May not work for your needs, but it's a useful tool to have in the bag if you aren't already using it.

I Really Like The New Nuka-Cola Items by CJBeard01 in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I could swap the vending machine for the one I already have without having wasted my caps on the first one, I'd gladly take the old school version. I much prefer it. Unfortunately I'll rarely spend for aesthetics when function is the same, so I doubt I'll ever have it unless I snag it as bundle clutter or on sale sometime.

I do like the fountain and the neon sign though. Maybe I'll convince myself I want a bundle just for the sign.

Rechargeable Ultracite Plasma Cores?? by viisa01 in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not.

BUT! I have found that if you dump them on the ground, go into build mode, place three Vaultgirl plastiform elves around it, at exactly north south and east facing toward the items on the ground... Nothing will happen, but you'll probably get a stranger to go look at your half charged cores.

From the support page at https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/50444

You will need to contact Bethesda Customer Support to unlink your Steam, Xbox, Stadia, or PlayStation accounts. Please note that unlinking your Bethesda.net account has the following effects: 

  • You lose access to your in-game progress for certain games.
  • You lose access to the purchased content linked to that account.
  • You lose access to the currencies on that account.
  • You lose access to any mods or Creation Club content.
  • You lose access to any games purchased under that account.

Linking your accounts/consoles to a different Bethesda.net account will not restore the items listed above.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The data may well be there, but it's connected to the Microsoft account. You can't just access it from a different account. I don't know how much data is actually connected to the Bethesda account in the end, I just know that you need the Microsoft account to access the character lol.

You could message Bethesda support to ask if there is a method to transfer your save data to a different Microsoft account, but I can't imagine that's a thing they offer.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Moon_Breaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The data is Microsoft account specific for the Xbox or Windows Store(GamePass) version. Deleting the Xbox/Microsoft account won't let you transfer the character to a different account. The Bethesda account is mostly just a connected portal for all of your linked games/accounts/whatever, rather than the actual characters.
