Fallout 4

If it's not ZDoom, it goes here.

It seems I have to bring this monstrosity to the back yard and just shoot it in the head or something. Fallout 4 has recently started to run like complete garbage, sitting at 100% disk load for long periods of time, failing to load world geometry, turning audio into a choppy mess, and making Windows suffer at the same time. I only just reinstalled it to give it a second chance, but I guess there's nothing I can do.

Check your hard drive for excessive fragmentation and/or bad sectors.

Yeah, about that, I defragmented after installing the game. I guess I didn't have enough free space for it or something, but I can't really do much about that when my Windows disk is so small.

I had to move the game to my OS SSD because the loading times on my HDD were abysmal. :/ Once I am done playing this game, I'm gonna move it back to the HDD for storage.

Well, so much as abysmal... It loads in about 5 minutes on my side. That's nothing compared to the 30 minutes Sims 3 takes.

Well, crap.

Accidental or not, I'm pretty miffed about this. I really hope they re-patch it. Or something. I'm sure everything will work out though. It's a pretty big deal, even if they provide a little workaround in the article.

Well technically, mods aren't even supported yet... so far everything are hack jobs. Players should wait for it to be officially supported in the first place... :D

I wasn't sure whether to put this here, or in the funny videos thread. So I'm being lazy and making macaroni and cheese instead.

So here's the video. Skill shots, yo.

Waiting for a Chaos Dunk mod that gives the B-ball Fat Man explosions. :P
