And no doubt NMA is decrying this game, but feth those guys.
Maybe I'm missing something, but why would NMA be so against this?
Because they think that anything beyond Fallout 1 (and maybe 2) isn't "proper" Fallout.
But like I said, feth those guys.
Fallout 4 and Shelter are going to consume my life
Not entirely true. FNV is quite well received over there. Any news on speak checks? A big part of Fallout was the possibility of avoiding combat through dialogue. Partly because it was fairly unforgiving back in the older games.

Peace through power!

I really need to upgrade my GPU, but i feel like I want to get it for my PS4. I'll probably just grab it for my PC in the end. I predict mods galore, just like the other games.

As a non-Apple user I get to wait with all the other plebs while iMasterrace gets all the action first.
Apparently us android users are going to get it sometime Thursday (not sure if its this week or next week) so it's not that long of a wait. No need to get your jimmies all rustled.

I want to hear more about speech too. There are people worrying about the new system and if it means we will have less options. I hope not. Options are kind of what makes fallout good.

Hey, if I get jipped out of Fallout stuff I reserve the right to rustle my jimmies
Where did you get that release info? I've read everything from that to "1-2 months" to "never".
So far I've found out that having four pregnant ladies work in the diner is fine and dandy until a fire breaks out, that's when they hoof it for safety for obvious reasons. I wonder how long it takes before the babies happen, I'm stuck at a population of 16 and at a pop of 20 I can finally build that radio station.
On the bright side, I've been turning a regular level one scrub into a proper little miss badass (thanks to a pair of lucky lunchboxes including a plasma rifle and combat armour), she's pulling double duty as door sentry and going outside to explore and generally kill stuff.
Also, morale is highest at the reactor room, where five burly dudes with 100% happiness are plodding away generating power. There have been fires, but these guys just don't seem to care.
Wondering what they'll be doing for this mod thing. As a console only player, I'm very curious. Wonder what sort of things are going to pop up from the PC modders transferred over.
Does the Fallout Shelter game allow you to select what the experiment is? Youknow as an added objective? That'd be cool and if they haven't included it they damn well aught to. Also can you select any Vault number or just the ones that haven't appeared in games (I assume its any).

Between 001 and 999 can be chosen as your number.
Also, no experiment is present, for which I'm personally thankful.

Gonna have to pick vault 108, obviously. Or maybe 92, either or.
I'd like to see experiments added, as a "hard mode" version.

No, the 1 male to 1k females was 69, 92 is the white noise musicians (was supposed to make them super soldiers or something iirc), while 108 was meant to have the overseer die, generator fail, back up genny fail, and have 3x the normal armory. And is also the Gary vault.

So, checked back in this morning and all my dwellers are half-dead from radiation poisoning for some reason. I tried producing rad-away, but it takes forever to produce a single one of those, plus it only heals a small bit of the radiation sickness. So, I may be looking at a vault full of corpses or ghouls soon.
Wait so this pipboy edition. It is basically a holder that lets you put your phone on your wrist. And your phone can have an app that links to the game and acts like the in game pipboy?
I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own...

More or less, pipboy isn't required tho.

My dad has one of those. But he calls it an iWatch.
