No, i'm level 72 and played it last night. At first it didn't show up as an addon but restarting the game had it show up. It's not bad, but it ain't great.
I read somewhere that if you are over level 50, the Automatron DLC will not work. Is that true?
I continue to have the issue where my settlements drop "happiness" for no apparent reason. Finch farm- which has 250 defense, and 2x food/water per settler, all settlers assigned a bed and a job and all of a sudden has a happiness of 50 (it was 94 the last time I played the game last week). Weird - cant wait to start the new DLC.

After starting almost from scratch to get the "good ending"I finished the Automatron DLC yesterday. It's fun and I'd say worth it (I got it as part of Season Pass). There's a lot of fighting, a new robot companion, some new legendary Power Armor pieces with unique bonuses, new weapons (both regular and legendary), new regular armor type ("robot") and making Codsworth or Curie into a Sentry Bot is pretty epic There are like 4-5 quests in the chain and provide a nice challenge (unless you use some of the totally OP weapons like an explosive minigun). I actually died in the final battle once (I was careless but still). It took me like 3-4 hours to finish (I wasn't really in a hurry but did not sidetrack to anything else, except some fun with the robot companions). Oh and you can make as many new robots as you want and name each one and use as either a companion or settler.
Just remember to wear your Silver Shroud armor during the quest The Mechanist is one of the archvillans of Silver Shroud in the Fallout universe, some cool unique dialogue is available if you wear the costume
EDIT: Imagine Curie as a dual-Shiskebab wielding Assaultron tearing everything in sight to pieces. Yep, not a problem! :awe:
Damn!
I'm a bastard.
Accidentally assploded the chem vendor and settlers on the east section of Concord.
I feel bad.
Not so bad as to leave their loot alone, but pretty bad.
Are you talking about Drumlin Diner, or something else? Because so far as I know, Concord proper doesn't have any residents.Accidentally assploded the chem vendor and settlers on the east section of Concord.
I'm doing the exact same playthrough Not done yet, level 71. Mysterious Serum + Psychobuff + Overdrive + Med-X with Chemist maxed (3x chem duration) help alot Heavy Gunner and Commando are awesome! I play mostly in realtime with Jet assist - it's the most fun I've had in this game in the 500-ish hours I've already put in it. The "perfect ending and the perfect character"After starting almost from scratch to get the "good ending"I picked it up accidentally. It's pretty brutal at level 30 on Survival, died three or four times in the final battle. More fun than I thought it would be, actually, but it added nothing more than a complex and the ability to build & modify robots. I'm hoping for new map areas, not three or four hour adventures/battles.(i.e. all factions except the Institute alive and coexisting, all companions alive)Did pick up a full suit of X01 power armor, which at level 32 (leveled up two times in the final battle) is pretty sweet. However, I'm still using my T-51D because it's got that cool AtomCats paint job.
Something I had not previously encountered in my first play-through was the AtomCats gang. Love 'em!
On another topic: I found out last night provisioners can be killed. ..... I saw the battle taking place as I spawned in, but couldn't get there in time. After he was killed I checked the map and the route was gone.
I didn't even know there were any civilians there.Just outside the east part of Concord. Theres a bunch of unexploded cars and a chem vendor who sometimes hangs out there. I went a little crazy and blasted without regard.
Hadn't thought about the Chemist perk. I rarely use chems and never use VATS, but during those times when I have to rely on Jet/Buffjet/Psycho/Medex to survive, that certainly would come in handy.I'm doing the exact same playthrough Not done yet, level 71.

There was a patch to increase draw distance, which is great for immersion (less pop-in of people) but greatly expands the danger zone for one's provisioners and settlers.Unless this was patched so that they can die anytime
I think only if you can see them / in the same world cell as them then yes they can die, otherwise they wont die
punted on a few mods after seeing what they actually did. Wastelander's Cookbook, for example, really appealed to me, but it also loaded up all the cooked items with both huge healing bonuses and big, big doses of radiation. That's not what I want out of cooking mod. There's a cooking overhaul mod that has "plans" to shift the emphasis of cooking away from healing (which really ought to be the job of Stimpacks) to mild, long lasting buffs, but so far doesn't do much beyond provide a few utility recipes for oil, dirty water, and adhesives.
Does anyone know of a mod that increases overall damage output and input?
I like the idea of the dangers involved in survival mode but I cannot stand the bullet sponge enemies. If there was a mode that made combat dangerous for both sides I would enjoy a new playthrough
Just started playing yesterday. Visited an area after starting construction of Sanctuary where you have to jump in the water and help a guy repair some pipes. Already having fun falling through the floor.
Is this kind of bugginess what I have to look forward to for most of the game?
