November Rules and Denver

Which choice is best? I'm not sure if I should side with the Gippers, the machines or take the AI ​​for myself (or something like that). November Rules is the optimal best decision so I want Colorado to be a better place. Could you tell me what decisions are best in this ending? I know the requirements, but what else is worth doing? Thanks if you reply

Factions in Save Editor

Is it possible to edit the faction reputation in the editor? I want to get the best ending (Novermber Rules! where the guards rule Colorado or something like that, I read that it's the best possible ending) so in case of a mistake I want to be sure that I will have the support of each faction. If you reply thanks

Does anybody really play?

I’ll admit wasteland is my first game in the series I’ve owned the game over a year and I’ve stopped and started a few times. Recently I’ve really gotten into the game I’m about 80 hours in and have racked up a lot of achievements I play on Xbox but I’ve noticed almost all of the achievements have very low rates of completion. So I have to ask does anyone actually play or do people just buy and watch YouTube videos?

Self Enforced Ironman Runs

Anyone else self enforcing ironman at the moment? I’m looking for tips / advice on these kinds of runs.

Basic criteria:

-Supreme Jerk -Permadeath -Difficult Checks (Optional. I feel like it hamstrings the early game too much and doesn’t matter late game.) -No reloads (This is the big one. No savescumming to get the best/preferred weapon out of Liberty’s safe, no redoing a fight that goes poorly, etc… and if you party wipe that’s gg).

Anyone else run games with similar rules and if so what’s your go to strategy to get the run off the ground?

Missing one Cyborg Chicken

I don't know why I lost one chicken. Can't find it anywhere. I remember I delivered 5 of them to Ranger HQ now one just gone. This is annoying. Is there anyway to cheat or edit save game just to get him back?

We are making a Mad Max Wasteland Inspired TTRPG setting. Super excited to share it with y'all.

Scorched Basin, our Desert TTRPG setting inspired by the Mad Max wasteland is going to include:

  • Customisable Vehicles (super proud of these)
  • Vehicular Combat Rules (using our previous vehicle combat experience)
  • 5 Unique Factions vying for control
  • A variety of Unfamiliar Creatures inhabiting the various biomes
  • A legendary race across the entire basin with ultimate power going to the victor! (stay out of my way!)

Meet the Riders faction:

r/ScorchedBasin

The Riders in the Scorched Basin live fast and recklessly. Existing only to feel the rush of adrenaline as they push themselves and their gnarly vehicles past their limits.

r/ScorchedBasin

If you'd like to know more about the Riders and the other factions of the Scorched Basin, check out the subreddit r/ScorchedBasin. We are posting cool behind the scenes / teaser content there pretty regularly. Hope to see you there!

No 1280x720 option?

Hey all. I'm playing on a crappy laptop and I would like to try for 720p to have a better framerate. However there's only an option for 1024x768, which is 4:3 or something, and the lowest available windscreen resolution is 1600x900. Is this normal?

I tried googling but found no answer. I'll play the game at 1600x900 for now, which gets me 30 to 40 FPS on this old thing, but ideally I would probably prefer a little more fps.

Do Nexus Mods Block Steam Achievements?

As the title suggests, Looking to add a few mods (specifically Better Equipment Mods, Free Retrain and Party of Six) but also want to keep getting my Steam Achievements.

Does anyone know? The best answer online o found so far is a steam discussion board talking about portrait mods not effecting achievements. The above mods are little different though since they use DLL plugins for example (instead of just a texture file)

Only 0.7% of people on Steam have gone the violent route to handle Steeltown's issues. This seems remarkably low, considering it's substantially easier than pacification via disruption weapons. Do you think that this is a consequence of roleplay, or did people just really enjoy that mechanic?

Just reached California and am overwhelmed by the number of quests given…

I’m starting to get burnt out but want to truck through to the end. Just got to California and have visited Rodia and the mannerites town. I’m overwhelmed by the number of quests given and what to do. Any suggestions on how if I should focus on doing each town specific quests and then move on or should I just jump all over the place

Thinking of replaying Wasteland 3 again, what's the most ridiculous/OP team build I can do?

On my last run, I created 2 snipers with the perk that have red aura visual which iirc increase their crit chance and dmg, they kill 4 enemies in a single turn

What other powerful team combination I can do?
Or what's the strongest build in this game?

I got all three wasteland games during Black Friday sales

Played the first one for 10 minutes and got murdered in the ag center by Harry and his pets… the interface and combat was a quite a bit less intuitive then I was expecting (going in blind) then started playing 2 and have been enjoying it a lot. Should I lock in and figure out the first?

Can you avoid sexual content in this game?

I was just wondering if it is possible to avoid any sexual content in these games. I read that there is a brothel, can this be skipped? I get pretty triggered by sexual things and prefer to avoid them

Questions regarding Backstory

Howdy folks, I've been working on Backstory for one of my ranger characters I've been playing, who I will be taking on the personal of for wasteland weekend 2025. I wanted to get some feedback from the community and any folks from InXile who might be browsing the subreddit today.

Current Backstory: Born in 2070 in The Palms (Formerly known pre bomb as 29 Palms), Sweetwater grew up in the tribe that called The Palms home. The locals in the area referred to this tribe as the "Leatherneck" tribe, a name that once rang true with the people of The Palms ancestors. Eventually in 2087, with the rising threat of the first plague of machines, many of the Leatherneck Tribe would join with the desert rangers in order to get protection for their home, including among those new rangers was a then 17 year old Sweetwater. Fast forward to 2102, Sweetwater and Ranger Team October were assigned to the San Fra (Formerly San Francisco) tohelp deal with local reports of "Strange metal men in the surf". Unbeknownst to Sweetwater and Team October, they would be walking into the oncoming path of second wave of Cochises machines, chaos descended upon the city as Ranger and Civilian alike took a stand in the old San Fran mint building. For several days, the defenders held out as slowly their ammunition began to run dry, as the machines began to breath the front of the Mint, suddenly all noise outside stopped. The machines were began to power down, no longer moving, some collapsing to the ground. After helping where they could, the surviving members of Team October buried their dead and with Sweetwater now leading them, began to return to the citadel only to find it in ruins. Eventually he and his team would meet back up with the surviving rangers and begin to try to help re-establish a foothold in the region while an expedition was sent to aid a group up in Colorado.

That's mostly what I've got written for now, but if anyone has any feedback or criticism, please let me know down in the comments below.

What is the coop status at novembrer 2024

I want to play this game with my boyfriend, but i have seen that multiplayer was really bugged. Does anyone know if they have fixed this? I saw a post about the status on PS4, but we play on PC.

Steeltown DLC, non lethal run

I think i am having issues with the DLC, or at least leveling issues.

I been trying to do a non lethal run with disruptor weapons on Steeltown, but everytime I enter a fight, the disruptors do so much damage that the people just die normally, with blood showing up regardless.

I cheated to have a lot of perks and attributes from the start of the game, artificially breaking leveling cap likely, does that mean my guys are just going to be doing to much damage to the enemies of steeltown for non lethal runs?

State of play for PS4 online coop November 2024

My friend and I are looking to play Wasteland 3 online coop, he is on PS4 and I am on PS5; the reviews from last year are not favorable for online coop and making us nervous about buying this game... we really want to play a turn-based RPG like Divinity and don't really have many options since he doesn't have PS5 yet.

Has anyone tried to play online coop on PS4 in the last year, or have any other game suggestions to stay in this genre for Playstation?

Need a partner on PC

I made it about halfway through the game on Xbox before eventually putting down. I really love the world and lore of the game but I've been wanting to try a duo run and I'm hoping PC servers hold up better.

Quick question about HQ mule character?

Would somebody mind explaining to a noob how this works?

So I’m told it’s worth creating a character who you leave at HQ with non-exploratory skills?

But I’m confused at how they can still gain xp and level up?

Also I’ve read you can have up to 4 rangers you create and 2 companions in a party of 6 but are you limited to creating only 4 or do you create a 5th ‘mule’ character and just swap them in/out as required?

Please be kind :E thank you :D
