Ah! Found her hanging around at Sanctuary. Dunno why she was there....
Investigating certain members of your community...

They should put makers on the map for each of your companions that you can toggle on and off. Maybe someone will make a mod.
There's one called Where Are You Now.


So, Far Harbour in two weeks. A Thursday release? Bit of an odd day.
Survival mode on consoles this Friday. I'd expect Xbox mods either 27th or 31st.

I'm trying to find some canned dog meat to build some of the cages but can't seem to find any.
Found a can in Suffolk County Charter School. In a cooler in a locked room.

If you'd had her as your companion you would have had to decide where she was going when you took Nick on instead. You sure you didn't send her to Sancurty?

I've yet to try out the second DLC so will need to try that before the biggie in a fortnight's time. How easy is Tito get the trophies? I'm not a trophy whore but I just have an OCD of the percentage not showing 100% when I've already got the platinum 😳

Fallout Wiki has these three location where you can find Canned Dog Food:
1. Five cans can be found inside the house at Finch Farm, on the bookshelf next to the door.
2. Seven cans on the Highway SE of Jamaica Plain which also hosts armored dog named Alissa.
3. Three cans in Proctor Quinlan's quarters on The Prydwen on a bookshelf.

...and PS4. I'm guessing its tech support for Far Harbor.

No, I'd never had her as a companion. When I went to Diamond City she was there but I chose to go with Nick to find Kellog. When we returned to DC there was no sign of her.

I'm trying to do the 'Best Good Ending' where you end up with three factions still alive and friendly to everyone (apart from ghouls, super mutants etc) and peace will reign over the Commonwealth. Just have a few more Railroad missions to get through, then I get to see if I've managed it properly ....after nearly 400 hours!!

Of course, then I want to go back to a specific save point and blast through some of the other endings before Far Harbour arrives.

I'm also spending an enormous amount of time building settlements and robots as I find it immensely absorbing.......almost therapeutic

Same here and if I'm not building I'm looking at YouTube to gets ideas I'm trying to hold off until Far Harbour now because of because of rumoured extra building materials.

2.3gb. (the same rumoured size of the DLC itself) Afterward Far Harbour appeared in the Add Ons section. Went straight to Valentines to see if I could play. No such luck.

Really like the building aspect too. I'm on my PS4 play at the moment. Building one settlement at a time this time. Keep running out of wood and have to go on the shopping trip, Greygarden-Abernathy-Diamond City for the wood shipments.

I'm using fully upgraded sentry bots with gatling laser, minigun, cluster launchers and an assaultron laser/robobrain head as provisioners now. Spotted one passing Medford Memorial. Watched as it tore through 3 muties, 2 hounds and 2 synths in about 10 seconds. Much better than using humans or ghouls.

Yeah wood is tiresome to get. I wish it was for sale in bigger batches like steel and concrete are.

The page for Far Harbour in the PS Store says 19/05/2016, so it should download in just under a week.
The Update History for the game (on the PS4 anyway) says v. 1.06 consists mostly of fixes & the Survival difficulty update.

Talking of which, today I started my fourth (& probably final) playthrough. The character is called Stella, stealth-based and pro-Institute. The big change however, is that I'm doing it on Survival difficulty. See how long I can last without chickening out and dropping it down to Very Hard or Hard. Yes, sometimes I can be a masochist!

Once I've had a go with Far Harbour, I'm going for a dead-is-dead survival character.
Mad Mel
Full auto rifle, pistol & bladed melee weapon
My favourite apparel set (Road Leathers/BOS Officer Uniform. Shadowed plate carrier (usually Black Ops combat armour) and shadowed leather arms & legs. Grey (hopefully someone will mod in a black one) knit cap/military cap, shades & skull bandana) -Yes, I love the tactical look.


Just seen that there's a beta for Xbox mods

Just watched the Far Harbor video on the site below and I like the look and sound of it.

And below a link to the youtube version of the same video.

Downloading all just under 6.5GB of Far Harbor now. Should take about 80 minutes at this time of day.

This Survival lark really forces you to consider just about everything you do in the game. From replacing all those mods & junk that your Sole Survivor carried around before being replaced by food & water you either sold off or ignored previously to always thinking about how long it's been since you slept/saved & where you're going to able to sleep/save next and hopefully it'll be before you encounter the next thing/person who wants to kill you.
Also, I got 12 levels in & almost to Diamond City before I realised that I had yet to meet a Legendary person/creature/robot. I even wondered if Bethesda had taken them out of the difficulty, but no, I turned a corner to find one of the Super Mutie camps near to DC and there was a LSM with a skull next to its description. Knowing how lethal enemies can be at this level of difficulty, I didn't stick around to find out what type it was!

Well, I got the season pass, so it was always getting played no matter what it looked like. But it does look an interesting place. I'm hoping for a nod to Point Lookout somewhere.

Most of my playthroughs of New Vegas were on hardcore mode so I got used to playing a certain way. Although you could still save anywhere, any time.
I typically only carry around essentials and everything else gets dumped into the workshop/container. Using only one main and one back-up (plus melee weapon for ammo saving against low level enemies) helps keep weight down.

Not usually a fan of energy weapons. But the other day I found a legendary plasma rifle. +10 Poison damage and I added a beta wave mod for burning damage. It cuts through everything so fast. Theses new plasma weapons have a faster projectile than F3 or NV. I really like my new rifle and I think I'll finally do an energy weapon character.

Never liked this game. Spent 3 weeks trying to get past the first bit when you meet the first group of people. You must all have some amount of patience.

Well, over 500 hours playtime with 4 characters on 2 systems and I've still not gone to the Institute. How long do you think it'll take me?

You mean killing the Deathclaw? Go off somewhere else and level up a little then come back. You should be ok around level 10 with power armour and a minigun.

I'm really enjoying Far Harbour. The place is so dark creepy like the vaults were in the other Fallouts. The funny thing is, without giving away any spoilers, the vault on the island is actually a welcome change of scenery.

This is one of my favourite Fallout dlcs, if not the my favourite, but there is one part that Bethesda could have done not adding. Again without spoilers but you'll know what I'm talking about when you get there.

Haven't played in a while but wanted to give Far Harbour a try (haven't played the wasteland workshop update yet). However, none of my saves will load. It lets me select them then just stays on the loading screen forever. Even tried starting a new game and it won't let me do that either.

Have tried various things from the net but none have worked so looks like I am going to try uninstalling and reinstalling it now. 😕
