    Unlike Fallout and The Elder Scrolls, you can fast travel even inside buildings, directly from the interior of your ship, basically anywhere, as long as the "no enemies nearby" rule is met. This saves so much time when you've run by the whole area.

    • @GPS08
      @GPS08 4 года назад +5

      @DraakoThe(Game-Breaking)Dragon That's also not true. You can fast travel directly from the interior of the Unreliable and there is a load barrier. I've fast travelled from other areas too.

    • @moonluna464
      @moonluna464 4 года назад +8

      The thing I also like is that you can fast travel even though you exceeded your weight limit. I always hated that you couldn't fast travel due to that in Skyrim.

      ... i did all the side quests and explored everywhere and it took me like... 4 days. I would explore every house, talk to every person that didnt have a generic name, like i wouldn't talk to every Corporate Guard or whatever just ones with actual names unless of course you need to, did all the follower quests also. Im sure theres more for me to do but sadly due to the piece of junk the xbox beta thing on PC is, none of my progress was tracked achievement wise so i have no way of checking.

      He was talking about rushing through the main quest line. You can bum-rush the main quest in a few hours. Heck, there are speed runners beating this thing in under 15 mins; but a "normal" play-through where you explore all the side missions and companion quests will take considerably longer.

    Definitely a refreshing single-player experience in a sea of micro-transactions and corporate greed. What’s ironic is that the Outer Worlds is a satirical piece which pokes fun at this aforementioned corporate America. It is fun, very cheap during sales, and an overall well-rounded, polished experience. It’s most definitely my favorite pickup in the space-dystopian-esque genre this year.

    Just a note on stealing:
    If you walk into a room that has a sliding door, close it behind you before you start stealing. Even if 20 corporate guards are on the other side they won’t see you. If the door is open, they can sometimes see you from 5-6 screens away.
    Also make sure your crouching when you steal, because it makes your character much harder for enemies to detect.
    General rule of thumb, if the enemies don’t have a line of site on you, you can steal stuff without issue.

      ​@noneofyourbusiness4616 That is why I do lure them inside the room by moving to far side of the room opposite of the door before shutting the doors. Fair warning is NPC who can stroll into rooms can reopen the shut doors too. Base your steal timing from observing NPC walking patterns to know how much time you have to steal , stop and finish off stealing in the room in-between NPC walking pattern of say location. First one happens at Edgewater's actual main landing pad with building nearby Edgewater entrance big door side of landing pad that has workbench and you get side quest from say NPC who strolls into building and backout awhile reopening shut door if you shut it. That was first time that I had learned NPC can reopen shut door during their walking patterns and you are stealing. Luckily, he didn't see me crouch behind table and chairs awhile stealing from big floor container. So , no reproach comment from NPC nor loss of reputation for my first character named Josie Pussycat. If you had watched old cartoon show , you will know my quirky character name and her personality. She is still one of my top favorite characters that I had played as charming intelligent rogue scientist build. My current one is stupid charmer strength build for one/two handed weapons named Jethro Bodine from old TV sitcom Beverly Hillbillies. This is actually hilarious playthrough with Jethro's stupid charmer antics that tries to do good yet goes sideways into waste basket at times just like his namesake from Beverly Hillbillies.

    I'd suggest not tinker & level up weapons too much early on. It gets insanely expensive just to keep them up to same level. After a while you'll find same weapons starting out at much higher levels with better damage as default...But the key thing is that the tinkering price for these higher level weapons starts at low cost of just a few bits. Far cheaper.

    Know this video is old, but I feel some tips should be brought in, specially since the last DLC just came. 1. DONT sell to vending machines on planets that's still neutral. It's a giant leap in price between positive and neutral. 2. Get the snake oil perk for the same reason, cause tinkering is insanly expensive. 3. Check your companions preffered weapons, and give them uniforms that buff they're core stats. 4. Get the perk that gives you 100 % of the companions perk. It's probably the most important perk if you don't go solo. 5. Get block to 20 fast. You'll unlock the leap, which is nice fetching loot

    I wish you could just level up the existing companion armor, since it is part of their personality. Still "equip" new armor, but have the choice to keep it looking like their original outfits. Max should be allowed to run around in his religious skirt, but still deserves armor. The artists spent a lot of time making the companions have distinctive appearances and they should be able to keep them. I love the fact that in AC:Odd you can pick models and skins for your items. Some are absolutely beautiful while others are just plain butt fucking ugly.

    Disabling the Adreno-shot is a good tip, especially since I will often accidentally hit the inhaler button when I meant to hit the time dilation button.
    As for the perks, I still contend that the best Tier 1 perk is the one that lets you fast-travel even when encumbered. In most games if you get encumbered you can drop item(s) and maybe come back for it later. Whereas in this game, your options are 1.) Find a vendor, 2.) Find a container, or 3.) Destroy the item. This is also a good reason to unlock the ability to sell items to vending kiosks, as there are more of them than there are human vendors.

    "Don't spend your skill points until you need them."
    I always found these sorts of players kind of weird and somewhat unimaginative. Choosing skills based on your immediate needs is good for players who are being more pragmatic and focused more on achieving, but I like to do builds, especially as they work for roleplay. My characters' weaknesses and flaws define them just as much as their strengths. Oh, I can't talk that guy into not fighting me? Well that's cause the character I'm playing is used to letting his weapons do the talking so he has the charm of an old boot. I can't take a punch to the face and shrug it off? Well that's cause my character is a geeky nerd who prefers to use the power of SCIENCE! Playing the game just to win, in my experience, makes it kind of tiring - it's when you apply fun ideas that it really shines.
    In a similar vain, not all my characters have skills in science or engineering, because they're not the brainy sorts who can wrap their heads around that stuff. Sure, this often results in buying new weapons to replace old ones, but again it's part of the experience.

    What I like about this game most is that while like in any RPG, stats do matter to a certain extent - it isn't super important to have an absolutely "optimal," build unless you are playing on Supernova.
    It does what an RPG should do first and foremost - be an RPG, and tells stories. You can play around with your stats and skills a lot, and not get too bogged down in the fine details.
    Which I feel a lot of modern day RPGs just focus too much on the grind, and raw stats, and math. They forget about literally the most important part of an RPG. To ROLE PLAY.
    Which this game does brilliantly. While also maintaining a degree of complexity in character building without getting too mind boggling, and not punishing you harshly for not having a perfect perk/skill distribution.

    I wish even the updated Outer Worlds port for Switch looked a fraction as good as this. There are so many pixelated textures that just won't even load and I don't think it was programmed to have some of them load. In other areas it looks brilliant and its just this inconsistency that makes the very low res textures stand out when there are parts of the game that look great. Combined with the lower details on...everything...from missing foliage to weapons and armor detail it makes me want to play this on the Series X when it launches. I'm also hoping a possible next generation 'Switch Pro' or upgraded model will be able to run this game and other at a higher fidelity and performance. The frame rate is playable and the game itself is playable but there is some hitching and pop in along with a strange FOV that feels a bit claustrophibic like you can't see as much as you should at one time in your view because the system limitations. I'm glad they have ported it and upgraded it but its a shame it can't be a bit better. I didn't notice very much of a difference from the day one patch to the patch that came out a few weeks back. Either way I'm still enjoying the game because of the great story, gameplay loops and looting, dark humor and characters, and large world to explore. The writing and story parts really stand out in this. On the other hand the Borderlands ports look fantastic compared to this and have a similar tone of humor though not quite as dark and the Borderlands games don't have that Fallout style and feel I really enjoy. That being said I got the Borderlands games and am enjoying them on Switch as well. There's an impressive number of AAA open world games on Switch from third party and with the Switch breaking records for sales on track for possibly 100 million by the end it's looking good for Switch owners. Nintendo just really needs to step up and offer an upgraded model that allows for more games and better experiences on current games without fracturing the player base so much.

      however focusing early points on tech is fantastic: better healing and more slots is great from medical, engineering is better repair and modding gear, and science is like the gold tier skill in the game: plasma and shock damage, tinkering equipment to give some nice modded weapon you like a little bit more longevity till the next tier weapon equivalent is found, tinkering cost down, and even a bonus of 25% damage for the other two 'elemental' types: with the added perk of the science weapons which are a category of their own, are buffed: even if you're a pistol user with high science you've got access to decent other options thanks to science weapons.
      more so than just 'non combat stuff', worry about break points on stuff you give a shit about: terrify having a bigger AOE isn't a big deal: tinkering cost halved, extra drug slots is nice, 1 lockpic locks are free is pretty big (25% more bits in containers give or take - lot of the income i feel is selling stuff you've looted), sell anything to vending machines and restricted inventory's nice (see above: lots of interiors have vending machines not so much salesman), and i'd say get either melee or guns to 20 for their effects if they're not at 20 thanks to skills and that's a fairly good start

    Good I get this 2 days after I finished the game, I started figuring out some things like u can upgrade your weapons and armor, that u could upgrade lockpick to "lockpick" stuff (I though it were parts rhat u had to find) and things like that, all right before I got to the last part of the game

    Thanks for the tip on the item sorting options. I missed that with the microscopic fonts.

      I took robophobia and completed last night. Don't know why he says not to take it. Presumably it's to do with a late battle which I found easy on hard mode anyway.

    My comment is to pay attention to the buying and selling discount percentage when dealing with vendors.
    Some vendors will pay more than the item’s worth because you have a better standing/reputation with their certain faction.
