Fallout 4 mods are hard to install right now because the Creation Kit for it isnt out yet. So all mods are going to be bastard hard to install, as they are not yet officially supported.
Also, i REALLY like the overgrown crampness for one big reason: It hids the short ass draw distance for people and such things that the game actually has.


I do like the overgrown enclosed concrete spaces, people keep bitching that there's not enough "green" in the Fallout universe. But what I'd really like to see (and what I'm working on in The Highway) is creating some post nuclear vegetation, I mean if trees in Chernobyl can evolve radiation resistant bark that protects them and their spawn. Then why the fuck haven't the trees in the Fallout universe mutate or evolve into something that looks outlandish given the whole radiation track-record in the Fallout universe. I mean Point Lookout was green.

But I guess plants growing all over everything is good enough, its fine, I like it.

Its just that when I stop exploring and head back home to quest, craft, sort, etc... that's when I realize that while Fallout 4 is fun, its like Skyrim. Its as wide as an ocean but as shallow as a small pond (not like Skyrim's puddle depth), there's stuff there, and I swear to God people are going to mine the game's files once the GECK (Fallout's Creation Kit) comes out and I bet you there's going to be cut content left and right. Hints at game mechanics that were only thought of.

Fuck, that Youtuber mined the games files and found a usable Harpoon gun for underwater exploration (even though it doesn't work underwater, but the trails when you fire it leaves bubbles), so either its in there for future DLC or it got scrapped. Which would explain a lot since the ocean has a lot of detail in it, vegetation, wreckage, the fact that you can scuba dive with your armor on, and the whole point of the Aquaboy/girl perk.

But I really am missing the old ammo system, and with this loot generation in the game I'm shocked there's no "legendary" ammo you can pick up that does 2x damage to targets at full health, or separate into multiple projectiles.
