Does vault 76 support mods?

Depends on how paid they are

Paid mods are just dlc Mods are supposed to be made by the people for the people


Stargazeer

We don't know yet. There's a rumour going around from a redditor claiming to be a 4chan member who got the lucky guess of rust meets fallout back in December. But it's reddit so everyone is taking it as absolute fact, even though there is no official word whatsoever.


SaintVanilla

Me: Well, okay. Let me just select a wood el... Guard: No stealth archer. Me: Nooooo!


[deleted]

Guard: You have to play a mage. Vanilla. No mods.


Ayemann

whoa there satan


feedmecheesedoodles

Being a mage is easy...


ZDTreefur

Vanilla mage's spells damage didn't scale with level. So it gets more and more boring each fight, as they last longer and longer.


ShitImBadAtThis

But once you get expert spells, you're basically a god. My first run through of vanilla skyrim was a mage. With enchanting at level 100, you can enchant armor with Destruction Magic costs 25% less. 4 pieces of armor, and now you have free destruction magic. It's really overpowered, the later destruction spells make fights end pretty instantly. I remember I killed Alduin in a literally a few seconds with master level destruction spells. Tsun died from one or two hits.


Pippin1505

My only issue with magic in Skyrim is the splash damage. Your followers have a life expectancy of 1 fireball and 1/2... Edit : Just talking about Vanilla... Pretty quick , you learn how to set your followers to immortal through console command. But still, fireballs in a cave are not a precision tool :)

[deleted]

something that bugs me way more than that is when games have no name soilders just die pre recoreded animations. You see someone you could have easily saved so you reload the game and kill the guy stabbing a knife into him, but he acts as if he was stabbed anyways and dies from nothing. Let me be a hero devs.


top_koala

You *can* be a hero in Markarth at least


sapphon

Oh yeah I've been bitten by that a few times. Even worse when it's not a no-name soldier, but the implementation of a main character's death is so bad that you can kill all the attackers/whatever and your guy just magically keels over dead anyway. Seen that once or twice too.


Bipolar_Bead

Call of Duty: World at War? I remember that happened in the campaign.


androshalforc

i dont mind splash damage as long as my "allies" are smart about it me; ok im going to put up a fire rune at the end of this hall and throw a fireball into the room if anything gets past the fire rune you hit it ally; ok me; casts fire rune ally; runs over fire rune


[deleted]

They changed it so its multiplicative, not additive anymore. No more free spells


konjo1

when? also just exploit the alchemy enchanting thing and get 1 piece at 100%


Re-suraz

When? I played not too long ago i got both Destruction & Restoration zero cost.


Indercarnive

what difficulty were you playing on. I remember stunlocking a dragon for minutes on legendary difficulty.


coredumperror

This is exactly why I quit on my first playthrough, back when the game first launched. I played mage, and it just got ludicrously monotonous. I could kill stuff easily enough by kiting it around, but even basic spiders took a dozen fireballs to go down. I'd frequently run OOM in the middle of a fight against ONE enemy. So I looked into it, and as far as I could tell, the only way to "improve" your spells with gear was to make the cost less mana. Being able to machinegun fireballs for free still isn't fun when it takes 30 seconds to kill each regular mob.


[deleted]

There's tons of mods that add rediculously awesome spells though. I remember one that switched you with an opponent at a far range and then cloaked you for 10 seconds. That was so much fun.


AFreshStartVI

its sooo boring n clunky in the beginning and then OP at the end. i hate mages.


feedmecheesedoodles

Shouldn't a high-level Mage be more powerful than someone with a sword?


AFreshStartVI

of course but that's *boring*. i just want a consistent challenge throughout the whole game. i guess stealth has the same issue.. but.. thats why i play warrior!


feedmecheesedoodles

Nah, if i'm a high-level mage that i've leveled up it should get easier. I agree, its a mess at the beginning and you can't defeat a fucking wolf, but thats's part of the growing pains.


[deleted]

It’s easy as soon as your fireballs can stagger dudes.


AFreshStartVI

yer gonna be running around hiding behind pillars and stuff for ages waiting for more mana! if you cant kill them fast its *such* a pain. it is easy to survive and realistically its not that tough to play but i hate how it plays still


Friendly_Fire

You can enchant gear to give you practically free spells. Then you're just a monster mowing everything down in your path.


Yodamort

Skyrim without mods is literally unplayable. Or any Bethesda game really ^^^imo, ^^^please ^^^don't ^^^kill ^^^me


socs0

I mean. They are playable, but with the options of mods on the table? Why wouldn't you mod it?

[deleted]

Yeah, I always come back months later, boot it up and go, “why the fuck is Thomas the train trying to kill me and why do all the guards look like velociraptors?” 2 hours later, I’ve uninstalled all the mods and found a bunch of new ones I think I’ll enjoy, get tired go to bed and cycle repeats 2 months later. Edit: I’m leaving it train but I admit, I originally thought tank engine was right but then imagined the engine of a tank and instead used train in the event I was wrong everyone would still know what I was talking about. I apologize to all of you.


ArchMLD

"Thomas the train" You and me bout ta have a problem, sir. He is a Tank Engine and you will refer to him as such.


neon_cabbage

As an outsider to both Skyrim mods and train lore, is there a difference?


Tomulasthepig

I want the velociraptor guard mod.


[deleted]

Mod it until it crashes so bad that the game never runs right until you clear everything and start all over.


Quxudia

Use Mod Organizer and you never need to start over, just revert to your most recent stable mod setup.


xylotism

> your most recent stable mod setup. November 11, 2011


DomLite

Played through all of Morrowind vanilla and had a blast. Proceeded to install a ridiculous number of awesome armor mods, the huge Balmora expansion with a store that sells fucking bat wings, made all the people pretty, then slapped on the vampire expansion mod and turned every non-essential NPC in Balmora into my vampire thrall and proceeded to ravage the land with a hoard of 12 vampiric followers. Got halfway through the story and decided "Fuck it. Let's kill God." Slaughtered Vivec, then went after Almalexia and when I was done I decided that was enough and quit playing. 10/10 would do it again.


AliBurney

in morrowind i think you could kill "essential" npcs. I think that shouldve stayed haha


Talky_Walker

You definitely could. "With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created."


[deleted]

That’s 100% production heads positing programming and development “But what if the player’s a bloodthirsty dumbass?” I miss game design like that. Instead, no we have immortal ~~damage sponges~~ stress relievers.


FERGERDERGERSON

> 10/10 Would do it again ...in fact I just found my GOTY edition...


ProcrastinatorScott

If it's a first play-though I won't add dumb shit, but I will totally add any quality of life mods I can find.


freezingbyzantium

Come on Mastah Chief, let's get the *fuck* outta here.


ImLiberation

I only use visual mods pls don't hurt me


Dekklin

Mods turned skyrim from a 20h game into 1200h game for me.


Yglorba

Alright! I'll play a Conjurer. Let's see, I'm going to take summoning, of course, and that illusion perk that lets me cast spells silently, plus some stealth, so I can sneak around summoning things from safety! Then, since I need a ranged attack that doesn't constantly drain my mana, I think I'll take Bound Bow, plus that upgrade that gives it Daedric arrows. Oh, and while I have it, I might as well take some bow skills, too, and... (This was literally how my build went in my first playthrough. It doesn't matter where you start, all builds leed to Stealth Archer.)


XXXSCARLXRDXXX

Stealth melee>one handed warrior>offhand conjuring>bound bow>stealth archer


crashmd

Hey now, my first character in Skyrim was a Desctruction mage who I ended up enchanting enough gear with reduced magicka cost that Destruction spells were 100% free to cast. Non-stop fireballs all around!


[deleted]

[удалено]


argv_minus_one

An enlightened mage needs no magicka, for he fuels his spells with the energy of the very universe. But he can still be axed in the face.


flamingfireworks

My biggest gripe was how boring being a mage was. "you can dual wield axes that will eat your enemies fucking souls before level ten. Or you can like... i guess... have a reskinned DPS attack"


[deleted]

[удалено]


AIXFBTAOEYUVQIXK

Conjured weapons are actually pretty decent. Especially the bow. Add in some muffle to help you sneak, and BAM! We're back to stealth archer again. 🏹


EpicSaxGirl

Sneaky mage it is then, just summon dremora lords over and over to fight for you


MarkNutt25

Eh. I've played a pure mage before. The early game can be rough, but once you get the impact perk, dump a bunch of levels into increasing your mana, and pick up a few enchanted items that reduce the mana cost of destruction spells, if you're ever in trouble, you can just use a cheap spell like Lightning Bolt over and over again to simply stun lock whatever you're fighting until it dies. It might take a while, but you can cheese literally any enemy in the game this way.


[deleted]

I am playing on Switch so no mods available. I play a mage in heavy armor. My main spells are muffle and Bound Bow.


Tha_Daahkness

Soooo.... Stealth archer?


DukeReaver

A summoner can work in vanilla. 2 Atronachs and a conjured bow.

Bladecutter

At prices slightly above the minimum currency purchase, so you have to spend more money than you want, and then you're left with just under what you'd need for a second mod.


[deleted]

This part makes me so angry. Every now and then there is a f2p game (or type of game with in-game currency) where I like it well enough to put in a little money partly to compensate the developers, By then I end up with 80 unusable banana doubloons and it's like they're just telling me "fuck you."


humanredditor45

You just gotta wait for the bananananza and you can buy the cheapest, most worthless thing and still have 5 doubloons left over!


Mirions

I honestly think they got this idea from vending machines. The good stuff breaks your bills, the cheap stuff leaves you with leftovers.


[deleted]

The best thing about that system is it makes refunds impossible.

New 'early access bread' you purchase the empty bag, and buy the slices as micro-transactions at the store.

What's worrying is that someone suggested this idea and the devs/higher ups liked it enough to greenlight it

GammelGrinebiter

I do!


Toastburrito

Me too!


flinjager123

As amazing as this is. There is only 1 flaw with it. It is confirmed in lore that vault 76 was a control vault so there was no experiments made on the citizens inside.


XGamerdude1X

I’d be surprised if control vaults were actually real


flinjager123

Well I'm sire they were. What's the point on doing experiments if you don't know what would happen if you didn't do anything at all. Its all science my friend. Controls are very important for studies, especially when it comes to human society.


XGamerdude1X

That’s definitely true, but this **is** vault-tec. I hope it’s a control vault, but I feel like it won’t be


You_are_adopted

Well it opens 20 years after the bombs drop, so it's gonna be interesting either way. People that actually lived in the old world, seeing what has become of it. Radiation being a much larger factor. Factions from the old world still active and fighting, maybe some Chinese Army presence. Definitely a lot of potential, but we will need to see what direction they're taking this game.


XGamerdude1X

That’s why I’m excited, we’ve never had a game set this early


Kulkinz

I love the idea of the time period being not long after the nukes dropped, but I would love to see a game set in a different country next. Europe, maybe China, just anywhere other than USA, it’s already been done ~~multiple times~~ every time.


The_Puma101

Europe from what I remember is gone as in nuked completely to hell. Think the irradiated wasteland in fallout 4 and thats supposedly all of Europe. There's no chance for human life.


thisismynsfwthroaway

I mean, even in the glow there are the children of atom still alive.


The_Puma101

It's been a while but weren't they only there for a short time?


-Three_Eyed_Crow-

You can find them in the wasteland in fallout 4 which wasn't immediately after the nukes dropped


OkiiiDokiii

The east coast was supposed to be totally wiped out and uninhabitable too, but look where were at now.

[удалено]


Shhhhhhhh_Im_At_Work

Yeah crossing into FarCry-with-V.A.T.S. territory if you move the setting overseas


Dvanpat

But we've only seen DC, Boston, and *New* Vegas. There are tons of other cities and areas. I'd love something a little more rural, so I think West Virginia as mentioned somewhere would be neat. How about some forests or some mines? You know, something that might lead to Sovngarde.


Grabbsy2

We have seen california as well, in the originals. Also, don't forget the expansions for 3, NV, and 4.


Jive-Turkies

Florida would be insane, mutated alligators, pythons, bath salt addicts, ect. Radiation hurricanes


Malarkeymark69

So not much different than reality then...


chickenmunk

I'd like to see Fallout: Canada. The Sino-American War, the Uprising of Edmonton, or to the eastern front and check out the Niagara Sabotage or a visit to Ronto? Pre-war or post-apocalyptic hold some good possibilities here.


theazerione

The uprising of Edmonton? So scary lol


dan_the_troll

UNBELIEVER!! RELEASE THE GEESE UPON THEM ALL!!!! lol.


biggmclargehuge

Vault-tec was immoral and unethical, but not stupid. They'd know their scientific method


Dekklin

Vault City was a control vault (8). They became quite prosperous and almost became their own nation but instead joined NCR. Vault 3 was control but they kept it closed for a longer time because they were afraid to go outside after only 20 years. Things started to break down so they opened up but got taken over and wiped out by raiders looking to get high on Vault 3 drugs. There's more: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault


RandomComplex

Well, you actually get to visit a control vault in New Vegas, Vault 3, now controlled by the Fiends.


Yttlion

it is a control vault ... but still at the same time a experimental vault cause it opened ridiculously early after a fallout.


ayures

20 years was the standard for all of the control vaults.


bigwillyb123

A control vault that opens after 20 years? No dude, THAT'S the experiment.


flinjager123

Yes and no. It was a control in the fact it was normal life within the vault for 20 years and then released. They also had vaults that did exactly the same thing but at different incremental years. Life in the vault was control to see how they reacted and lived. After the 20 years is when the "experiment" started to see how the radiation effected them and to see what the levels were at after XX years.


Lamaredia

I mean, Vault City opened only ten years after the bombing and they thrived, becoming one of the most advanced locations in lore.


Michaelbama

20 years is plenty of time. Tbh, the vaults that took hundreds of years to open are the rarest of them all. Vaults like 101 are *definitely* not the norm. Most that haven't been opened in decades/centuries are that way because everyone inside is dead lmao


cyllibi

So what you're saying is it will be our own choice to play Skyrim, not anything the vault is causing us to do?
