No. There is no quest to destroy the Minutemen (unfortunately). However, if you lead the Minutemen and somehow piss off the Brotherhood, theres a quest that involves...
Spoiler:
using artillery to blow up their airship the Prydwen and then defend The Castle against their counterattack. Pretty fun
Oh that does sound fun. Might have to do that on my next play through!

Finished the game on PS4, had to to do all story routes for all the trophies, when i returned to normal play i continued the save with the minute men as the other factions are kind of dicks.
I had a bug that when i sided with the minute men i could not finish my brotherhood quests, no problem with the railroad ones. Will wait for the goty edition to play all the DLC quests.
Did not build any special weapon modifications, my build was completely sneaky and i 3.5 to 4 times the damage if i was not spotted.
In case anyone missed it, PS4 mods are back on... sort of! They're coming to Skyrim first on launch and then to FO4 somewhere down the line. The downside is that they are being limited to in-game assets, which means no custom weapons/armour/build items, no quest mods with original voice work ect, but at least you'll have access to things like build limit lifts, cheats/item-spawning and stuff like that.

Its not a bug. Siding with the Minutemen and using them to destroy the Institute locks you out of certain Brotherhood, Railroad and (naturally) Institute quests.

That is stupid i am not an enemy of the brotherhood, but that is bethesda, they seem incapable of making notice of the choices i made, Joining the brotherhood, as a novice, i was the general of the minute men already. They use an old engine and the story/choice tree seems also like in Fall out 3 or New Vegas, i still enjoyed the game though, it had less bugs than F3 or FNV.
Nice, two-shot weapons are always good to find - I'm still hoping for a two-shot missile launcher, so I can go on a vertibird-themed duck shooting expedition
Why does it not surprise me that Bethesda can't do better than make Desdemona talk such trash when there are no less than 3 power armoured guys in the room?

Yup. Makes for a fun light show though. Maybe I can dazzle the enemy.
The only gun that might have more recoil is a Two Shot automatic rad carbine (rifle?) from Far Harbor. It's only usable in VATS.

There are definitely two other suits of power armour in that shot, and of course the one you are wearing. I just didn't think anyone would lug a full suit of armour to that location and leave it there empty.

Who was playing the game, you or me? I can tell you for a fact that the only characters in that room wearing power armour were me and Paladin Danse.
You're confused because I was third person view. The guy in power armour facing the camera is ME.

Ok, so there are not 3 guys, there's only two. Desdemona's life expectancy has just gone up by a half second.
She must still be seriously demented if she thinks she can say "Spread the word. The Brotherhood are our enemies. There's no possibility of peace." without Danse power-slapping her across the room and saying "Crazy B*tch!" before she gets turned into chunky salsa by at least one set of advanced or heavy weaponry.
But that's something that I don't like. Bethesda don't seem capable of having one NPC work out you have another from the population they are about to slag off standing right beside you when you are both dressed in gear bearing that groups logo.
Like everyone walks up to the big, skinheaded Milwall supporter and [offers to get him a Bovril*] tells him his team is rubbish. Anyone who does so is fully aware they'll get pounded flat in seconds.
Also
If you are in 3rd person, why the little figure showing the state of your armour when you can see the state of your armour, and the confusion with the compass is crazy. The HUD in 3rd person is just confusing, and terrible. There is an icon for a door just over your left shoulder. That door is behind you. But according to the compass in your HUD, it's in front of you.
This is why I spend almost all my time in-game in 1st person mode.

Yeah, Bethesda games have always ignored companions/followers during conversations.
How many times have you talked to an npc and have them refer to you and your companion(s) as being alone/single person?
In their defence it would mean doubling (at minimum) the number of recorded lines of dialogue for the majority of the game... and all for "...and your friend" to be added. Not to mention things like the above with factions involved.
As for the conversation about Legendary effects; my favourite is still Kneecapper (on an automatic weapon, a short burst is 100% crippling). Great for emergencies.
I think for my next play-through (although I'm paused mid-2nd play) I'll avoid the use of all legendaries and see how that goes.

Thanks to the Legendary Modifications mod my Minigun is now Two Shot. With an accelerated barrel it absolutely shreds anything, as long as you are close enough to account for the lower accuracy and range. But that's fine when you stick a Shredder on it and get point blank.
I have another mod which means that the Commando perks apply to the Minigun, which makes it actually usable as its low damage is boosted by both the Big Guns perks and the Commando perks.
I did for a little while have it as Explosive but with maxed out commando, big guns and explosives perks it killed everything way too fast and basically made the game easy mode, until something got up to you and then even having all of your power armour modded with explosive shielding couldn't save you

I don't know if anyone here is still playing Fallout 4 (a happy 1st birthday to you last month), but I have finally uploaded my first mod.
It's on Bethesda.net and the Nexus, and it's for PC, XBox and PS4.
It adds a cave system to Coastal Cottage.
There's Raiders, loot and surprises.
And I have a video up on YouTube showing my VATS Gunslinger character running through it:
Soon, I'll have my settlement build at the Coastal Cottage complete and I'll share that here if there's any interest (otherwise I'll let this thread die).

Good to hear Vik. It always starts with one mod, and that leads to another... and then you have 60+ like me and beyond that to the people that have hundreds.
Be sure to back up your saves before installing mods. Just to be safe.

Well, just for you two, here's the walkabout of the settlement I build at Coastal Cottage.
This is mostly build inside the creation kit with the finishing touches done in-game using my many other mods.
It's not perfect for settlement building compatibility, but I've learnt a lot about the creation kit and what to do differently... next time...
I think I may go and build at the Castle next. But I'll have to move all the companions out of there first as they all feel the need to comment on everything I do, all the time, all at once... I originally sent them all there to get them as far away from Sanctuary as possible while I built there.

Just started it, knew they weren't decontamination pods instantly. When they said to step into them I was like wait a minute, vaults don't have these they better not be cryo pods or something dumb like that.
I knew they weren't decontamination chambers from the moment I saw them, as the outside had a distinct "cryo-pod" look to them (what with the insulated pipes etc.), and inside they have that bed/chair; if you want to decontaminate someone, you want access to all sides/angles of them.
Although, alarm bells were ringing from the point you first run up to the guard and tell him you're on the list and instead of "and your name is?" he replies "Adult male, Adult female, infant, in you go...". I was instantly thinking "Why don't you care who I am?".

Well I already knew they were all social experiments which takes away some of the fun when you just have to figure out what test they've decided this vault is for. Apparently the real test was not giving them enough supplies from what I read in the overseer's log before I left.
Might explain why a malfunctioning pod would defrost and not just kill you I think.
The pod didn't malfunction. The Institute sent a team to Vault 111 to retrieve Shaun and kill off all other Vault Dwellers besides the 'backup' protagonist parent to tie off loose ends (the other parent holding Shaun was killed for not cooperating). When you wake up as Kellogg is kidnapping Shaun, you can see the other Vault Dwellers were also awake, and therefore would have been witnesses to the kidnapping.
Later, Shaun tampered with the Vault remotely to release his remaining parent.
If the Institute hadn't tampered with the Vault, its possible that all of the subjects might have survived to present day.
