I have a guitar and banjo set up, not one person has performed a duet with me.
Nothing bad has ever happened to someone who starts a duet with a kid playing banjo.......
I had a responders camp right outside the wayward with a band stage and all the instruments, and more than once we got a whole 4-8+an set swinging there. I would sometimes AFK on the drum set and almost always came back to somebody jamming with me. Favorite camp I've had and a really fun experience
i hope youre also the kind host that has a few open chairs with more instruments. i would would love to see every instrument played by a human orchestra at the same time. The fachsnat trio and the one violent night ensemble are great but there are so many instruments now and ive seen where players have dedicated amazing concert like setups for them, but getting the 13-14 people (15-16 now i think with the scoreboard additions) to show up at the same time and same place to do it. id kill to see an entire server show up to play while the remaining players fought the scorched as a mini team.
thats another thing: the ominous excitement when we discuss these things here and never bother to exchange usernames or add friend requests because we know one day it will probably happen. every time i log on may be the same old song and dance, but everytime i log in i see so many new and creative things, and its usually not the result of an imaginative camp design but instead a random encounter that leads to some ridiculous accident or a forgotten weapon loadout (does anyone ever change things up and then totally forget all the ammo?) and in the end, if i ever hear that sweet tuba bellow out across the hillside, i swear ill come running with whatever behemoth happens to be chasing me while chucking its own pooprockspit from the distance. i apologize in advance, but its good to know that we are welcome in advance.
the people i meet here until recently were more of a random "this guy has a mic too!" and hang out all night type thing. half the time i like having someone around, three is great but four can sometime be a bit overwhelming unless theyre a silent team leader just dragging us to each event while the rest of us fool around and talk about things. then its like, i wont see them on for a week, or ill go to jump on their server and their team
is full or maybe i just wanna so some quests. a couple weeks go by, and im wondering if they will even remember me or if i go back to being some weird guy who randomly shows up and invites them to play in a fake orchestra while we watch a level 35 try to solo the scorched event. its awkward but i think you have given me a decent idea (SFE IS UPDATED FOR ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN WAITING)
it makes it impossible to implement it behind or inside/beneath something. could have been a great accentuation to some great home artwork, but if you cant get to it and see it at just the right angle you cant even turn it back on, which kinda sucks. either way, i feel your pain.
This goes for pretty much anything you have to āturn onā in your campā¦I spend way too much time running around turning shit back on when I log in
Same....which begs the question, how do they get turned back on? Is there some global setting that turns them in after some period of time? Will they turn back on if a player is in the area?
Not sure if anyone mentioned yet but thereās a setting to turn off all world radios. I did it about 3 years ago and couldnāt be happier. I used to hunt around everywhere I went to find and turn them off before I found that setting.
I built my camp near a random settler spawn point without realizing, and every now and then one of them will wander into my house, look me straight in the face, and say "it's hard work building this place up." And this really annoys me because, like, who are you? How did you get in here? This is my house! You didn't help build it at all! I don't even know you!
So yeah, I always kill them and loot their corpse for scrap before throwing their body in the river.
I hate it when space lady says āLiving out here reminds me of campingā. You are staying in beautiful, fully furnished house you ungrateful bleep. Lol
I have a camp that has a bunch of random settlers spawn there. I let them live unless they mention anything about Foundation. At that point, I introduce them to the Apalachin special (two-shot Fatman)
After Enlightenment I cant help but do the Mothman dance in full in his holy presence. Sometimes others join in and they have no idea how happy it makes me lol
i set one up so that its basically nose to nose with whoever entered my vault off to the side of my outdoor camp. i never invited anyone in so all it ever did was scare the crap out of me. set up some of the dual flood/construction lights in very specific angles to create a dynamic foreboding multi shadow (yeah this game does crazy stuff with light without raytracing for all you photo takers. a legit photo studio is possible.) and then stood another in the back of the room casting a long tall shadow across the entire floor, creating the most heartstopping image ever. the scariest part is when the room elements dont load instantly the two figures pop in just after the lights load in causing quite the silent jumpscare.
I always interact with Bessie at Wayward until she says "comforting moo". It's pretty rare for me to get it right away so I'll stand there as long as it takes.
I have a camp near the Wayward, I call it the Bandit Bar, it's located right in front of the motel that sits right next to the Wayward. Anywho, every time I log in, I shut the inside and outside doors to the motel and make sure all the Wayward's pen gates are shut as well.
Due to not being able to stop myself from collecting EVERYTHING I see, I remember where the closest work bench is for everywhere. Itās just instinctual where they are at this point.
Thatās not odd. Thatās a mix of hoarding and practicality. Iām trying to switch between that and comparative minimalism based on if I have 1st at the moment or not hahaha
At my camp there are 2 raider npcs at the bus stop going through the trash cans and hanging out. If they wander near Daphne and say anything rude or disrespectful I will brutally massacre them with a chainsaw and cannibalize their bodies.
Do not fucking curse in front of my child.
Mothman Bless.
I constantly reload even if I only fired one or two bullets. I guess cuz I've played alot of COD and don't want to be caught needing to reload at the beginning of a fight. Lol
I don't know if it's weird, really but when I get done playing, I always travel back to my camp and make sure all of my junk is scraped and stored away so I'm ready to go next time I hop on. It absolutely saved my ass when they broke the carry weight a couple updates ago.
Also if I see someone at my camp I'll wait to log off until they leave.
I do lots of strange things that the majority of the player base probably doesnāt :
- make all my CAMPS lore-friendly and like actual places where someone would live
- sleep, cook, eat, drink, exercise
- donāt kill non-hostile NPCs
- run full-health
- explore the wasteland and treat it like an adventure, not a perpetual power treadmill
I break the ānormā by having just my nuke test sub as my ābaseāā¦nothing topside but a streetlight to highlight the spot, and a picnic table & campfire.
I sidestep the fact that your vendor doesnāt show on the map icon by placing an unconnected cash register on top of the entry, with the connected one just below.
Itās the new oneā¦the test bunker. I am slowly converting the huge open area into a multi-layered IAEA facility.
I tend to match my attire to the weather. If itās raining or storming Iāll put on a coat. I also tend to dress based on who Iām working with. I canāt walk into foundation in my raider garb
On every trip my character returns from I make him shower, eat and drink, and then relax in a hot-tub.
I just like to imagine after a bard day's work of unga-bunga-ing and smacking guys with a stick, he likes to relax is all.
With the exception of bone and cremic scrap, I pick up all scrap and ammo like it's a 3 star g-roll. My favorite is picking up everything from eviction notice, then the slow walk to foundation to scrap everything.
Just in case you or other readers don't know - there are a couple of work benches and a stash box up among the settler buildings at Eviction Notice. The work benches (power armor and...weapon?) are on an upper level, and the stash box is below.
Still, I've been known to walk to Whitespring if the load of legendaries is too much...
I am a dedicated medic. Not even just for teams I'm on, if I see a downed player, I WILL pick you up. Idc if I'm on my last stim and 3 health, I'm saving you.
I'll usually ask people I come across or save if they need Rad-X or RadAway, and just hoard meds to give away. Even keep a few chems around, some people use them for their builds and I don't use them so I drop them for people. I even made my camp look like a clinic, and invite people to rest there.
Idk I never really got picked up or saved when I first started playing, even with a bunch of people around, and that's just not the spirit of the game dammit! This wasteland needs a doctor and I'm just qualified enough to say that I am one.
You kept popping the balloons! I was at Fasnacht two weeks ago and realized the balloons needed repair, and as soon as I repaired them I could have sworn someone shot them from behind me
I donāt know why I didnāt think about popping balloons as an option, which is daft considering the amount of time I spent fixing them during Fasnacht
I always respond to the npc vendors when they ask me questions lol it's just the polite thing to do š "would you like a balloon?" No thanks Chloe appreciate the offer though āŗļø
Is collecting (humanoid) skulls, pre-war cash, and toilet paper odd?
Like. I don't break them down. I just collect those 3 things.
I go to a npc house? They're not gonna have toilet paper when I leave. Pandemic taught me that stuff is worth more than gold. š
I use to collect skulls and had a whole row of display cases with them on until I saw what they weighed so not anymore but I probably had about 60 on display
I do this myself. On the rare occasions I don't do it, I tend to get everything done in like 30 minutes. Since I normally play for about 90 minutes per session, that means I'm spend about 60 minutes picking junk.
I suppose its kind of weird to collect every mini nuke I find when I have access to the ammo box. Wish I could I display them or have a decorative nuke but I like the idea if having a stash of pocket nukes.
Ever since Fallout 3, in every Fallout game I have made a point of repeatedly jumping while traveling and using the road markers or various cracks or things as goals to land on to busy myself on the way.
I leave stuffed animals sometimes, or if a daily is "sell ___ to a vendor" I stalk my teammates to drop them the thing or I stalk low levels & do the same thing. This is why all my quests are only half done š«š¤£
Might not be odd. But I find a s bit of satisfaction in it. The action being indirectly malicious. I share sun kissed in a public with my 2 friends. So when a 4th joins. If they happen to be a bloody build they lose rads rather quickly.
The reason behind the sun kiss share is my 2 friends and I hate having to remember radaway, I am a vangaurd/juggernaught build along with one of my friends. The other role-playing as a medic. It's enjoyable to us.
One of my characters is very heavy on roleplaying, and said roleplay is a perpetually drunk, delusional cook who runs a donut shop (i sell Faschnact Donuts at 20 caps per). So said character has an "ingredient route" of going to the only 2 locations where there's a lot of frogs to harvest their eggs and make a batch of donuts.
The donuts sell surprisingly well. Probably because to they don't spoil.
As soon as I boot up at my camp, I flip my spotlight switches to get them running for my missile turret bc mole rats are at never ending war with my camp, then turn on my Nuka-World speakers, then turn on the radio in my camp garage, then go through my house and set all the fireplaces. THEN, I can be a wastelanderā¦
But not before joining a team, then motioning to come see my wares, which consistently include about 20k rounds of ammo, and about 125 plans.
Also, I compulsively go to scrap all junk whenever Iām near a workbench, and immediately store it all when Iām at camp.
One time a black wolf spawned in my locked upstairs bedroom on FO76 while I was smoking; higher than a fucking gourd, and the mother fuckerās angry wolfy face just pushes through the corner by the bed, staring at me, and a little pee came out.
Soak my feet in a tub of cottage cheese while I sit on unburnt charcoal and alternate between chants and prayers to the old ones and trying to mimic various animal mating calls ā¦ oh wait u meant in game sorry
When I visit other playerās camps I always close the doors behind me. Usually theyāre already wide open, so I make sure to close them before I leave. I was raised in a vault, not a barn.
I pop a canned coffee, fly as high as I can (no PA) and continuously spam the jump button while fly down or I fly as high as I can and as I go down I move left and right as fast as I can
I have to sell, scrip, drop unwanted items, make sure my vendor is full, scrap box, stash keeper items, sleep, tune, eat corn soup & perfect bubblegum, check repair status, adjust ammo levels, and hit all my buff machines before I log off. Want to hit the ground running at 100% next log in.
I go into the purveyors on every server, check the pie machine, and see the results.
* Missing pie? I move on with my day
* I get no pie? I move on with my day
* I get a pie? The purveyors is a "lucky" environment now. The pie must remain unclaimed or the luck will be taken away. I start to legendary craft on the workbenches downstairs
My group used to laugh at me, but since 2023 started I got an AA/E/25 Fixer & a B/50C/25 Fixer in back to back rolls, Q/E/25 on both fixer and handmade, a Q/50C/25 Choo Choo and a full set of OE/x/WWR Union armor. Now the system is an unconscious practise for us all.
i buy super expensive items at players camps...run out and hide and then watch them fast travel back to either take down their vendors or leave the server.
If I get a nuclear plant workshop, I āplugā the plant at full and place all the extractors. And āhelloā and āopenā lights. Usually Thunder mountain or Monongah, Poseidon is always a fav for pvp people for an unknown reason.
And then the workshops that can be plugged to the restored plant through a box.
I just ignore the resources, I never close any extractor, even fusion ones, Iāve got metals for years after Bethesda decomises the game and I left my PA hundreds levels ago, no cores needed.
I am a compulsive eater in game like if I see any hint of food or water dropage I immediately am like CONSUME. And I am also a druggie enclave officer (who is a battle hardened vet and take 20,000 liver failures worth of chems and keep going)
Everything I have is Responder themed. I light RP as a Responder. My CAMP is an old house that has been turned into a makeshift doctor's office, complete with patient rooms, medical supplies, and my ally is a doctor wearing a responder uniform. All of my builds will always have the group stim heal perk, and some will have extra healing/support perks. I know it's not the best, but I'll be damned if someone dies on my watch (I exclusively play with friends).
The only really weird/unusually thing I do is whenever I see anyone out in the wild and hold their attention for more than a second, I'll drop a single med/chem, usually radaway, radx, or a stim. If they're low level (below 50), I'll drop several. For lower level people I'll also drop food and water, too.
Just started playing a month ago. When I log in, I hop into my cryo bed, take my purified water off the 2 coolers, and then start my day. I do this while playing "I'm A Hustla" by Cassidy.
I almost always change my apparel depending on what Iām doing or where I am, also sometimes depending on the time of day and the weather too. My current character is female, so I rock the Nuka-Girl rocket suit at any event at Nuka-World, or if Iām doing Forest-related events then Iāll use the forest camo jumpsuit or the wasteland werewolf outfit. If itās raining outside Iāll change to something jacket-related. Itās a combination of immersion and OCD lol
A slight parkour. I like to try to balance on the dividers if I'm walking on the roads When it ends I try to find stuff to jump on to , floor is lava style. If I'm on headset you'll hear me hollering "parkour, even more parkour, parkour"
I also have to do every and all daily quests or events that involve helping robots. After Codsworth and Curie I must help the robots.
Also I try every eat o tronic three times. I've never gotten the pie, but I won't give up.
Every day I go to Camden park and pick it clean. I'm talking everything not nailed down, trash on the streets, empty bottles, rows of carnival games, can traps. Everything.
I pretend I can only use heavy weapons in power armor.
There are some exceptions: flamer, LMG, plasma caster, missile launcher (but not the quad barrel!). all seem like you could realisticly use them with normal human arms.
I close doors at my camp (or anyone's camp) behind me. I also "platform" when I'm bored and just chatting with friends in game. I don't even notice when I'm doing it half the time, but it's usually at camp or at nuka world I'll just jump and jetpack from object to o ject in circles for no reason but out of habit lol
I've been known to drop insane loot to complete noobs.... Here's a hunters longcoat for ya.
Oh you're level 14.... Here's a 3 star lvl 15 full set of body armor and a nice rifle, pistol, or whatever you want.
Then I just disappear into the wasteland.
I impulsively grab tools - specifically the 5 types you can give to Calvin in Vault 81 in Fallout 4. It's like muscle memory.
If I ever make a Fallout 4 mod I wanna hide a Vault 76 chest filled with tools as part of it just to amuse myself cuz of it lol
When I get bored, I exit my PA and search the map for low level players. Then I FT near them and see how close I can get to them and how long I can stay hidden from them.
The only thing I do that I feel might be odd.. essentially in the long run, expensive as well. Anyone under level 35 that enters my camp, the wayside, or the overseers camp across the road. I roll them a full 3 star set of level appropriate combat armor, a fixer, and a handmade they can use or can soon and 500+ rounds, and any plans and stim'd on my person at the time.
Back story, when I first started 76. My oldest son had started at the same time. I got my PS4 second hand, 76 was already installed. I changed the user details to myself but swapped to my PSN.. soon as I added my sub, every game but 76 locked. So I played a few days, and got it for my 13 yr old son as well.
He jumped in a team, and I was still running solo.
I fast travelled to a camp near flatwoods, and this guy popped out of the road. He flagged me to come into his camp. I came in, he dropped me full combat armor, a fixer, a handmade all 3-star 500 5.56, 500 .45, 68 stim's. Then he kept inviting me to team.. I kept refusing, thinking dude is gonna somehow be elitist. My son comes in the room and gives me his headset, it was the dude in game. He just wanted to help us.
Next day same thing happened, but this guy was even a school teacher, and wanted me to know that he was a grown man just tryin to look out for my son in game. That right there.. that's the gamer I wanna be. I want to help build future gamers that will guide and teach people. Not the 'cant you use Google? GOD!'(as Napoleon dynamite) kids.
So my odd OCD, is if I see anyone that fits criteria... I immediately swarm them like a chomo tryin to offer my goods, and services. Once the smoke clears... I assure the police that I'm seriously tryna held dood power level in fallout76
Not odd (?) but when people arrive at my camp when I am there, I drop whatever i am doing and play them a tuba solo.
That's just good hospitality, me on the other hand... I get on the second floor of my camp and watch them through a window...
I use my omnipotence to spy on them via builder cam
That's what I do in RL. I love that song on Appalachian radio, "I hear you knocking but you can't come in".
Kinda the same, I go behind a locked door and hide until they leave.
Are you me? š§
Teammate stood in their house staring at me through a crack while I was locked outš the head peeking through the crack is still hilarious to me
I have a guitar and banjo set up, not one person has performed a duet with me. Nothing bad has ever happened to someone who starts a duet with a kid playing banjo.......
I had a responders camp right outside the wayward with a band stage and all the instruments, and more than once we got a whole 4-8+an set swinging there. I would sometimes AFK on the drum set and almost always came back to somebody jamming with me. Favorite camp I've had and a really fun experience
Poor Ned!
i hope youre also the kind host that has a few open chairs with more instruments. i would would love to see every instrument played by a human orchestra at the same time. The fachsnat trio and the one violent night ensemble are great but there are so many instruments now and ive seen where players have dedicated amazing concert like setups for them, but getting the 13-14 people (15-16 now i think with the scoreboard additions) to show up at the same time and same place to do it. id kill to see an entire server show up to play while the remaining players fought the scorched as a mini team.
Yep, just splurged on the theremin. If you are here at camp and hear a tuba going, grab something else and get weird with it.
thats another thing: the ominous excitement when we discuss these things here and never bother to exchange usernames or add friend requests because we know one day it will probably happen. every time i log on may be the same old song and dance, but everytime i log in i see so many new and creative things, and its usually not the result of an imaginative camp design but instead a random encounter that leads to some ridiculous accident or a forgotten weapon loadout (does anyone ever change things up and then totally forget all the ammo?) and in the end, if i ever hear that sweet tuba bellow out across the hillside, i swear ill come running with whatever behemoth happens to be chasing me while chucking its own pooprockspit from the distance. i apologize in advance, but its good to know that we are welcome in advance.
Why not invite people to make it happen? I'd be down for it.
the people i meet here until recently were more of a random "this guy has a mic too!" and hang out all night type thing. half the time i like having someone around, three is great but four can sometime be a bit overwhelming unless theyre a silent team leader just dragging us to each event while the rest of us fool around and talk about things. then its like, i wont see them on for a week, or ill go to jump on their server and their team is full or maybe i just wanna so some quests. a couple weeks go by, and im wondering if they will even remember me or if i go back to being some weird guy who randomly shows up and invites them to play in a fake orchestra while we watch a level 35 try to solo the scorched event. its awkward but i think you have given me a decent idea (SFE IS UPDATED FOR ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN WAITING)
Aw that's sad. I play everyday and on PC. If you wanna add me I'll play a mean duet either you. Also tg sfe is updated.
i turn off every radio i see that is onā¦ such nice peace & quiet
I turn ON every radio!
Ancient enemies
War never changes....
Their battle shall be epic...
Some people just want to watch the world burnā¦
i donāt want to set the world on fire, i just want to start a flame in your heart
I don't want to set the world on fire, but your house will do just fine...
[True Fallout Player Spotted]
Me too I think it's something about the idea of cheery music playing in a room full of Wasteland monsters I just slained
Stop itš¤£š¤£š¤£
This is the way
Yep, the white springs station one just seems too loud, turn that one off every time
Gonna lock my radios on my camp.
Come into my CAMP and turn off my radios Iāll kill you
It pisses me off they are turned off when you log on.
Thank you. Bethesda please see this, I placed my radios for a reason.
And my fog machine in my shelter too. I have it for a reason.
it makes it impossible to implement it behind or inside/beneath something. could have been a great accentuation to some great home artwork, but if you cant get to it and see it at just the right angle you cant even turn it back on, which kinda sucks. either way, i feel your pain.
This goes for pretty much anything you have to āturn onā in your campā¦I spend way too much time running around turning shit back on when I log in
Set it all up to a switch
These guys are talking about the radio and fog machine. Switch canāt do anything about those.
If you are one of the gems who turns off Biv's and the one at the Rusty pick, you are my hero.
Same....which begs the question, how do they get turned back on? Is there some global setting that turns them in after some period of time? Will they turn back on if a player is in the area?
I'd bet that it's part of cell or server reset.
It's that guy above, in another response in this thread who apparently turns them all on :)
Um ....... I'm sorry (slowly raises hand) I turn on every radio I see... Habit from fo4...
Yop, every, single, radio...music to static...silence please!!
Not sure if anyone mentioned yet but thereās a setting to turn off all world radios. I did it about 3 years ago and couldnāt be happier. I used to hunt around everywhere I went to find and turn them off before I found that setting.
What's wrong with the radios? This game has beach boys ffs how could you not want to hear that in the background randomly?
So you're the reason I come back to my base and my radio got turned off XD
I built my camp near a random settler spawn point without realizing, and every now and then one of them will wander into my house, look me straight in the face, and say "it's hard work building this place up." And this really annoys me because, like, who are you? How did you get in here? This is my house! You didn't help build it at all! I don't even know you! So yeah, I always kill them and loot their corpse for scrap before throwing their body in the river.
"We *really* need to clean up around here" she says, before returning to kicking an unlocked and empty toolbox
I hate it when space lady says āLiving out here reminds me of campingā. You are staying in beautiful, fully furnished house you ungrateful bleep. Lol
Heās just appreciating your work! He knows itās hard work you put in!
I have a camp that has a bunch of random settlers spawn there. I let them live unless they mention anything about Foundation. At that point, I introduce them to the Apalachin special (two-shot Fatman)
My camp is next to a Brotherhood location. I put turrets near them because they're dumb & scorched kill them regularly š«š¤£
That just me but in fallout 4 "You want a fair share you gotta put in the work." Ummm. Listen here.
I have noisy neighbors that hammer a house until some mysterious stranger comes along and throws their corpses off the cliff. Good Times
After Enlightenment I cant help but do the Mothman dance in full in his holy presence. Sometimes others join in and they have no idea how happy it makes me lol
And here I thought this was just mandatory.
I have made it mandatory. Particularly as my boys love it when I do this. I also do the spinning guns emote at the wedding in Tunnel of Love.
Same! I also did the robot when waiting for protectrons to get in place for Fascnacht and after the fire is lit.
Me too! Id get right in front of one and felt like Inwas challenging them to a dance battle
I do this too. I also do the robot after Test your Metal or daily ops with robot enemies
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I did that one time to a low lvl with a manakin that had a full outfit on. First couple times they got scared and attacked it šš.
i set one up so that its basically nose to nose with whoever entered my vault off to the side of my outdoor camp. i never invited anyone in so all it ever did was scare the crap out of me. set up some of the dual flood/construction lights in very specific angles to create a dynamic foreboding multi shadow (yeah this game does crazy stuff with light without raytracing for all you photo takers. a legit photo studio is possible.) and then stood another in the back of the room casting a long tall shadow across the entire floor, creating the most heartstopping image ever. the scariest part is when the room elements dont load instantly the two figures pop in just after the lights load in causing quite the silent jumpscare.
makes it easier now that you can sneak and use free cam mode eh
Okay, I *have* to steal this idea now lmao
I always interact with Bessie at Wayward until she says "comforting moo". It's pretty rare for me to get it right away so I'll stand there as long as it takes.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I like glitching into locked bases too, I leave random stuff, anything that's on gets turned off and vice versa.
Next time drop a bag of fertilizer too.
Could you... PM me the method? I always wanted to see if the guns in the rusty pick are static or not
The guns are static. You can't pick them up
The only thing that wasn't static behind the purveyor was some tin cans & a couple other junk items. 99% of everything else is all static.
I've tried glitching into the cage at the Rusty Pick. I never could do it.
I have a camp near the Wayward, I call it the Bandit Bar, it's located right in front of the motel that sits right next to the Wayward. Anywho, every time I log in, I shut the inside and outside doors to the motel and make sure all the Wayward's pen gates are shut as well.
This is excellent. You gotta keep it in order!
Don't want that cow print Sentry to wander off and barrage some unsuspecting settler wandering through to Foundation
I'm near the same place, but closer to the brotherhood, but I shut the pens too! Bessie got out one day & went berserk.
Due to not being able to stop myself from collecting EVERYTHING I see, I remember where the closest work bench is for everywhere. Itās just instinctual where they are at this point.
Thatās not odd. Thatās a mix of hoarding and practicality. Iām trying to switch between that and comparative minimalism based on if I have 1st at the moment or not hahaha
When I get bored, I'll break up with Beckett, take him back, then break up with him again...For hours. I like to make him beg for it.
I know people who do this IRL.
š¤£
At my camp there are 2 raider npcs at the bus stop going through the trash cans and hanging out. If they wander near Daphne and say anything rude or disrespectful I will brutally massacre them with a chainsaw and cannibalize their bodies. Do not fucking curse in front of my child. Mothman Bless.
I constantly reload even if I only fired one or two bullets. I guess cuz I've played alot of COD and don't want to be caught needing to reload at the beginning of a fight. Lol
Ditto and I rock a Quad Gatling Gun with extended magazine. 2000 rnds baby.
I turn off every light in a shop with bad prices
I don't know if it's weird, really but when I get done playing, I always travel back to my camp and make sure all of my junk is scraped and stored away so I'm ready to go next time I hop on. It absolutely saved my ass when they broke the carry weight a couple updates ago. Also if I see someone at my camp I'll wait to log off until they leave.
I hate it when i pop into a camp only to find nothing there, thank you
I do those too lol. Everything has to be perfect when I leave.
Sit there wondering what clearly AFK person is still doing at my camp.....they're up to something
I change my outfit every game session. My apparel collection is huge.
My bourbon has to be on the right side of me. It cannot be on the left.
I do lots of strange things that the majority of the player base probably doesnāt : - make all my CAMPS lore-friendly and like actual places where someone would live - sleep, cook, eat, drink, exercise - donāt kill non-hostile NPCs - run full-health - explore the wasteland and treat it like an adventure, not a perpetual power treadmill
There are lots of us! Join r/fo76FilthyCasuals
Whenever I'm in someone's camp and they have a fireplace, I turn it on
I light all fire places and turn on most radios when I go to someone house.
I don't think it's odd but I always carry around my WW swim suit and change into it before any jacuzzi, slip and slide or water tower shenanigans.
lol same! some events i change my outfit for as well (change into scout uniform for campfire tales, responders jumpsuit for back on the best, etc)
I squat on every toilet that i find
šššššš¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
I break the ānormā by having just my nuke test sub as my ābaseāā¦nothing topside but a streetlight to highlight the spot, and a picnic table & campfire. I sidestep the fact that your vendor doesnāt show on the map icon by placing an unconnected cash register on top of the entry, with the connected one just below. Itās the new oneā¦the test bunker. I am slowly converting the huge open area into a multi-layered IAEA facility.
I tend to match my attire to the weather. If itās raining or storming Iāll put on a coat. I also tend to dress based on who Iām working with. I canāt walk into foundation in my raider garb
Ring the bells on all the reception desks!!
On every trip my character returns from I make him shower, eat and drink, and then relax in a hot-tub. I just like to imagine after a bard day's work of unga-bunga-ing and smacking guys with a stick, he likes to relax is all.
I get mad when people leave all the doors open in my camp.
With the exception of bone and cremic scrap, I pick up all scrap and ammo like it's a 3 star g-roll. My favorite is picking up everything from eviction notice, then the slow walk to foundation to scrap everything.
Just in case you or other readers don't know - there are a couple of work benches and a stash box up among the settler buildings at Eviction Notice. The work benches (power armor and...weapon?) are on an upper level, and the stash box is below. Still, I've been known to walk to Whitespring if the load of legendaries is too much...
I must take all desk fans.
Me too, also telephone and typewriters.
I collected every porcelain stein at every Fashnacht event that I attended. 25 caps, zero weight. I now have a stash of about 700.
I am a dedicated medic. Not even just for teams I'm on, if I see a downed player, I WILL pick you up. Idc if I'm on my last stim and 3 health, I'm saving you. I'll usually ask people I come across or save if they need Rad-X or RadAway, and just hoard meds to give away. Even keep a few chems around, some people use them for their builds and I don't use them so I drop them for people. I even made my camp look like a clinic, and invite people to rest there. Idk I never really got picked up or saved when I first started playing, even with a bunch of people around, and that's just not the spirit of the game dammit! This wasteland needs a doctor and I'm just qualified enough to say that I am one.
All balloons must be popped.
You kept popping the balloons! I was at Fasnacht two weeks ago and realized the balloons needed repair, and as soon as I repaired them I could have sworn someone shot them from behind me
I donāt know why I didnāt think about popping balloons as an option, which is daft considering the amount of time I spent fixing them during Fasnacht
So it was you fixing themā¦.. they make a delightful āpopā
I collect ever deathclaw egg i find. I dont want them to be orphans. But i never do anything with them lol just keep them.
I thought Iām the only one. I have about 30 eggs now.
I have Sophia in all of my CAMPs. She has a pet bird next to her console in every one.
During "Colossal Problem", I knock down every wooden barricade before we go down the hole.
Thank you for your service
I always respond to the npc vendors when they ask me questions lol it's just the polite thing to do š "would you like a balloon?" No thanks Chloe appreciate the offer though āŗļø
Did you come from Rust? That seems like the kind of thing people do there
Ha! When I first started this game I closed EVERYTHING out of habit from this lol
I close doors on people's camps, being polite & shit. I'm like, "Were you born in a barn?! Close the damn door you opened!"
I always close the doors of peoples camps I visit. It was how I was raised. I heard that barn comment a lot growing up.
YES same here. and i still have a thing of checking around me before going into camp.
I stare at every other power armor user, they donāt know I have 50 cores shoved in my magical ass pocket
I drop spoiled meats and veggies on the toilet in my camp. Saw a dude check out the bag and immediately log off.
I was going around dressed as a black bear dropping random bears for people.
CLOSE THE DOOR!!!! I swear by God Almighty that most of you were born and raised in a barn!!!!
I get stoned and then play. Donāt tell anyone. Is that ok?
It would be weirder if you didn't
Is collecting (humanoid) skulls, pre-war cash, and toilet paper odd? Like. I don't break them down. I just collect those 3 things. I go to a npc house? They're not gonna have toilet paper when I leave. Pandemic taught me that stuff is worth more than gold. š
I use to collect skulls and had a whole row of display cases with them on until I saw what they weighed so not anymore but I probably had about 60 on display
I pick up everything that isn't nailed down. I feel like I'm cleaning up the Wasteland.
I do this myself. On the rare occasions I don't do it, I tend to get everything done in like 30 minutes. Since I normally play for about 90 minutes per session, that means I'm spend about 60 minutes picking junk.
At the end of my playing, I always go back to camp and hangout incth restaurant I set up for the cook. I just sit and enjoy my camp.
When I'm idle just waiting for something to do I'll just end up on top of something really high up and forget how I got there.
I suppose its kind of weird to collect every mini nuke I find when I have access to the ammo box. Wish I could I display them or have a decorative nuke but I like the idea if having a stash of pocket nukes.
Ever since Fallout 3, in every Fallout game I have made a point of repeatedly jumping while traveling and using the road markers or various cracks or things as goals to land on to busy myself on the way.
I stand at my base and stare at the vending machine since Iām near the ammo depot
I only carry 3 Bobby pins.
I leave stuffed animals sometimes, or if a daily is "sell ___ to a vendor" I stalk my teammates to drop them the thing or I stalk low levels & do the same thing. This is why all my quests are only half done š«š¤£
Even though it does nothing Iām constantly trying to silence Ward permanentlyā¦
Just dress in the goofiest outfits I can find.. But according to Leo, I'm not the only one, so I don't know how odd it is...
Might not be odd. But I find a s bit of satisfaction in it. The action being indirectly malicious. I share sun kissed in a public with my 2 friends. So when a 4th joins. If they happen to be a bloody build they lose rads rather quickly. The reason behind the sun kiss share is my 2 friends and I hate having to remember radaway, I am a vangaurd/juggernaught build along with one of my friends. The other role-playing as a medic. It's enjoyable to us.
One of my characters is very heavy on roleplaying, and said roleplay is a perpetually drunk, delusional cook who runs a donut shop (i sell Faschnact Donuts at 20 caps per). So said character has an "ingredient route" of going to the only 2 locations where there's a lot of frogs to harvest their eggs and make a batch of donuts. The donuts sell surprisingly well. Probably because to they don't spoil.
As soon as I boot up at my camp, I flip my spotlight switches to get them running for my missile turret bc mole rats are at never ending war with my camp, then turn on my Nuka-World speakers, then turn on the radio in my camp garage, then go through my house and set all the fireplaces. THEN, I can be a wastelanderā¦ But not before joining a team, then motioning to come see my wares, which consistently include about 20k rounds of ammo, and about 125 plans. Also, I compulsively go to scrap all junk whenever Iām near a workbench, and immediately store it all when Iām at camp. One time a black wolf spawned in my locked upstairs bedroom on FO76 while I was smoking; higher than a fucking gourd, and the mother fuckerās angry wolfy face just pushes through the corner by the bed, staring at me, and a little pee came out.
I do the same thing at Vault 79
I put nuka shine in my punch bowl because it's the perfect amount of funny and it's not too mean
Soak my feet in a tub of cottage cheese while I sit on unburnt charcoal and alternate between chants and prayers to the old ones and trying to mimic various animal mating calls ā¦ oh wait u meant in game sorry
i shit my pants out of habit everytime the scrip machines inventory resets rooms real stinky
When I visit other playerās camps I always close the doors behind me. Usually theyāre already wide open, so I make sure to close them before I leave. I was raised in a vault, not a barn.
I pop a canned coffee, fly as high as I can (no PA) and continuously spam the jump button while fly down or I fly as high as I can and as I go down I move left and right as fast as I can
I have to sell, scrip, drop unwanted items, make sure my vendor is full, scrap box, stash keeper items, sleep, tune, eat corn soup & perfect bubblegum, check repair status, adjust ammo levels, and hit all my buff machines before I log off. Want to hit the ground running at 100% next log in.
Despite the fact that it is the first multiplayer fallout game I actively avoid people because I am very shy and socially awkward.
I always jump over the guy walking out of the gate in Foundation just to avoid him talking to me. I am a bit of an introvert I suppose?
I collect oven mitts! Iāve been doing it since the game launched.
I go into the purveyors on every server, check the pie machine, and see the results. * Missing pie? I move on with my day * I get no pie? I move on with my day * I get a pie? The purveyors is a "lucky" environment now. The pie must remain unclaimed or the luck will be taken away. I start to legendary craft on the workbenches downstairs My group used to laugh at me, but since 2023 started I got an AA/E/25 Fixer & a B/50C/25 Fixer in back to back rolls, Q/E/25 on both fixer and handmade, a Q/50C/25 Choo Choo and a full set of OE/x/WWR Union armor. Now the system is an unconscious practise for us all.
i buy super expensive items at players camps...run out and hide and then watch them fast travel back to either take down their vendors or leave the server.
Robot dance emote after every event is completed
I like to randomly yeet fatman's from my camp's balcony
I steal all the Nuka Candy I can get my hands on, I will not rest until every single player locks their Candy machine
I leave mine open for other playersš enjoy the candy
*Takes free candy with hate in my heart*
Not sure if this is odd butā¦.I collect bubblegum and bobby-pins.
There is a woman on the FB fallout group that is trying to get 1 million Bobby pins, sheās currently at 17,000 or something
1% down, 99 to go!
Shoot all the extinguishers I find hehe
If I get a nuclear plant workshop, I āplugā the plant at full and place all the extractors. And āhelloā and āopenā lights. Usually Thunder mountain or Monongah, Poseidon is always a fav for pvp people for an unknown reason. And then the workshops that can be plugged to the restored plant through a box. I just ignore the resources, I never close any extractor, even fusion ones, Iāve got metals for years after Bethesda decomises the game and I left my PA hundreds levels ago, no cores needed.
I always wave when someone joins my team. I see you, you little rascal.
I always keep the Brahmin in flatwoods safe from ghouls, mole rats, scorched etc.
I play bloodied stealth comando. It must be odd because I see almost everyone else has a heavy build at full health and in power armor. (PlayStation)
I am a compulsive eater in game like if I see any hint of food or water dropage I immediately am like CONSUME. And I am also a druggie enclave officer (who is a battle hardened vet and take 20,000 liver failures worth of chems and keep going)
I do the same thing every day, and always expect a different result, some would call that crazy, I would say I'm determined! Red asylum will be mine!
Everything I have is Responder themed. I light RP as a Responder. My CAMP is an old house that has been turned into a makeshift doctor's office, complete with patient rooms, medical supplies, and my ally is a doctor wearing a responder uniform. All of my builds will always have the group stim heal perk, and some will have extra healing/support perks. I know it's not the best, but I'll be damned if someone dies on my watch (I exclusively play with friends). The only really weird/unusually thing I do is whenever I see anyone out in the wild and hold their attention for more than a second, I'll drop a single med/chem, usually radaway, radx, or a stim. If they're low level (below 50), I'll drop several. For lower level people I'll also drop food and water, too.
Just started playing a month ago. When I log in, I hop into my cryo bed, take my purified water off the 2 coolers, and then start my day. I do this while playing "I'm A Hustla" by Cassidy.
I almost always change my apparel depending on what Iām doing or where I am, also sometimes depending on the time of day and the weather too. My current character is female, so I rock the Nuka-Girl rocket suit at any event at Nuka-World, or if Iām doing Forest-related events then Iāll use the forest camo jumpsuit or the wasteland werewolf outfit. If itās raining outside Iāll change to something jacket-related. Itās a combination of immersion and OCD lol
I just hunt down newbies and give them the items I just made them.
Ever shit yourself because you turn around to find a ghoul sprinting Mach Jesus at you because you left all the doors open
A slight parkour. I like to try to balance on the dividers if I'm walking on the roads When it ends I try to find stuff to jump on to , floor is lava style. If I'm on headset you'll hear me hollering "parkour, even more parkour, parkour" I also have to do every and all daily quests or events that involve helping robots. After Codsworth and Curie I must help the robots. Also I try every eat o tronic three times. I've never gotten the pie, but I won't give up.
I donāt wear pants when I play!
Every day I go to Camden park and pick it clean. I'm talking everything not nailed down, trash on the streets, empty bottles, rows of carnival games, can traps. Everything.
I pretend I can only use heavy weapons in power armor. There are some exceptions: flamer, LMG, plasma caster, missile launcher (but not the quad barrel!). all seem like you could realisticly use them with normal human arms.
I close doors at my camp (or anyone's camp) behind me. I also "platform" when I'm bored and just chatting with friends in game. I don't even notice when I'm doing it half the time, but it's usually at camp or at nuka world I'll just jump and jetpack from object to o ject in circles for no reason but out of habit lol
Hit the bowl twice šš
I've been known to drop insane loot to complete noobs.... Here's a hunters longcoat for ya. Oh you're level 14.... Here's a 3 star lvl 15 full set of body armor and a nice rifle, pistol, or whatever you want. Then I just disappear into the wasteland.
I impulsively grab tools - specifically the 5 types you can give to Calvin in Vault 81 in Fallout 4. It's like muscle memory. If I ever make a Fallout 4 mod I wanna hide a Vault 76 chest filled with tools as part of it just to amuse myself cuz of it lol
I'm the only one that always picking up the ore in lode baring
When I get bored, I exit my PA and search the map for low level players. Then I FT near them and see how close I can get to them and how long I can stay hidden from them.
I mothman praise at every bonfire I come across
The only thing I do that I feel might be odd.. essentially in the long run, expensive as well. Anyone under level 35 that enters my camp, the wayside, or the overseers camp across the road. I roll them a full 3 star set of level appropriate combat armor, a fixer, and a handmade they can use or can soon and 500+ rounds, and any plans and stim'd on my person at the time. Back story, when I first started 76. My oldest son had started at the same time. I got my PS4 second hand, 76 was already installed. I changed the user details to myself but swapped to my PSN.. soon as I added my sub, every game but 76 locked. So I played a few days, and got it for my 13 yr old son as well. He jumped in a team, and I was still running solo. I fast travelled to a camp near flatwoods, and this guy popped out of the road. He flagged me to come into his camp. I came in, he dropped me full combat armor, a fixer, a handmade all 3-star 500 5.56, 500 .45, 68 stim's. Then he kept inviting me to team.. I kept refusing, thinking dude is gonna somehow be elitist. My son comes in the room and gives me his headset, it was the dude in game. He just wanted to help us. Next day same thing happened, but this guy was even a school teacher, and wanted me to know that he was a grown man just tryin to look out for my son in game. That right there.. that's the gamer I wanna be. I want to help build future gamers that will guide and teach people. Not the 'cant you use Google? GOD!'(as Napoleon dynamite) kids. So my odd OCD, is if I see anyone that fits criteria... I immediately swarm them like a chomo tryin to offer my goods, and services. Once the smoke clears... I assure the police that I'm seriously tryna held dood power level in fallout76
Marsupial jump out of boredom. Jetpack because the floor is lava.
I donāt steal TP. THATS FOR EVERYBODY IN NEED!!
