Haven't look at books and schematics, except for forge and workbench. They were changed to 20% chance. I left it there, as thought it was fine, was just curious. I did change egg chances in nest from 20% to 40%.

I would rather have the tamable wolf that was shown off a long time ago.
A second rate Dogmeat that could pack 30-40 lbs, and help you to fight sounds a lot more appealing to me than a drone.
What happened to the tamable wolf that was talked about in the past apparently?
I would take that over a drone any day.

There is a reason Dogmeat was immortal in Fallout 4 as in Fallout 3 he was not and would always die leading to trauma. Which people complained about far more then any other companion and got so bad that they had to add a perk called Puppies! to the game in a expansion. Which would cause a new baby Dogmeat to spawn out side Vault 101 each time Dogmeat died.

Actually I noticed in the console when you turn music off it still plays/rotates through the music selection manager, maybe tell him to disable it when music is off?

I definitely want the drone, but the wolf would be cool too. I haven't heard anything about it for ages; I have a vague recollection of someone saying it would take too much dev time they wanted to spend on other things. But I could be mistaken, and I take lengthy breaks from the game/forum from time to time, so I might have missed things.
I'm still holding out hope for more advanced crafting stations, like say industrial forges that can smelt more than 2 materials at a time. They would require electricity, etc. Don't know if TFP will find time for it, but here's hoping!
The drone would be really cool.
Man I hope the can fix the quest system. Atm 3 out of 5 quests (tier 5) are not worth the efford. Most of time I cannot find the last missing zombies. I mean you waste 2 and half day on the skyscrapere and have to quit the clear quest because hordnight is comming. Just a waste of time.
I hope they reduce the number of t5 quests to 2 per trader and add more t4-t1 quests. Better to drive 2km for a t4 and can get it done in a day.

IMO, there should just be a "Health and Wellness' tree with things like Master Chef, Cardio, Sexy T-Rex, Iron Gut, etc, etc, etc. with those governed by any of the Specialized trees...so if you have say 5 points in Strength or Agility, etc...you can buy relevant perks in H&W up to Level 5.

Mining needs calories, sledgehammers need calories. Strength needs a way to recover HP.... fortitude doesn't use any calories and he heals instantly without bandages.
Careful buddy my fridge throwing days are back.When Madmole played his strength build for the first time he didn’t like having to invest in a different attribute to raise cooking....
None of the above.

So with regards to weapons, are we also going to get tier 5 and 6 weapons?
As in we are getting pipe pistols for tier 0 weapons, we have up to i believe tier 4, are we going to round it out to 6 different types for each if possible or is it pretty much almost done?

I'll just move cooking to whatever attribute I'm playing each month just to piss everyone off
Take a close look at the pathing of any 4 legged animal in the game inside houses. We can't compete with dogmeat, they mocapped dogs and spent probably 2 million just developing animal turning / mocap. We can do a drone though.
So basically we don't want to ship something that looks like crap and will take 2 years dev time and still might not pass.

that would certainly keep us on our toes, like my new run in the game, playing a way i did not every play before, but finding it oddly managableI'll just move cooking to whatever attribute I'm playing each month just to piss everyone off
BM is fun. Se same T5 quest locations over and over again, and bugged are not fun.
Better no quests than no-fun-quests.
@Gazz I think the issue is it doesn't trigger til you're a certain amount completed in the quest, and it's not triggering soon enough. Is there any way it could be triggered a little earlier? Like about 75% completed?
It's an awesome mechanic when it triggers, it's very helpful in finding the last little sneaky hiders ... but only if you can progress far enough for it to trigger. And with some of the bigger, more complex POIs, that's a bit of a challenge. People are finding the higher tier quests not as fun/worth the time and effort to complete ... or are unable to complete them entirely.

So basically what you are saying is that you are going to put the Charisma attribute in the game and have it all about dance fighting and controlling zombies like Micheal Jacksons Moonwalker meets Thriller.
Just one question... will Annie be okay?
That's great and all (and it is!), but... doesn't change anything when it comes to the crafting, or lack of needing to craft.Oh, you poor poor man. So you specced into shotguns crafting perk and now it is completely useless (EXCEPT FOR THAT TOTALLY USELESS 100% DAMAGE INCREASE!!!!!!!!!!).

Not happening for A19. We are giving each weapon their own mod models built into the original mesh though, so eventually as we rework stuff they will not only align, but look custom built for each weapon.
