1, How do you earn the Gardeners respect to do bounties?
-It's actually really simple and obvious, figure it out.
2, Does this work with _____ mod?
- it should. nothing has really been edited. All is new and standalone. That being said, mods that make you friends with the gunners are going to make the hunters friendly ALL the time. A few console commands that remove you from that faction AND makes you neutral to them will be required.
3, Can you explain how every aspect and mechanic of the mod works?
- No, what would be the fun of a mod that you know everything about? this is not a weapon, armor or faction mod. it's like this to be an experience mod. like a game should be.
4, can I stalk you and post on your mod page and find you on discord? can I ask you a bunch of questions and tell you about my experiences?
- yes, you can. just don't show up at my house. I don't know what this thing is where people think that a modder is somehow some untouchable person that has no time to deal with people. I don't do this for money. please tell me your epic story with my mod. that's the best payment I can get.
there are many spoilers below this line. read at your own risk.
-add the credits that I have posted. the music is covered under creative commons and requires credits. don't forget about me too.
-do not add this to any console system unless you are positive that this mod will not irreversibly mess up there saves without the use of console commands.
i not sure when i can keep working on this so i don't think it would be fair for me to hold on to this if there are others out there that can improve/fix issues.
I thought it was some cell reset issue and I waited for two weeks in my County Crossing settlement but the issue persisted. The game also kept crashing whenever I fast traveled to Drumlin Diner. I had to reload an old save and lost a few hours of gameplay, plus an amazing settlement build at Starlight.
I am restarting the mod and will update regarding this if the issue happens again.
It's a but overtuned but there's a lot of solid groundwork here, a lot of the issues people have with the mod could be fixed with some tweaking on either the user side or by someone who wants to make a patch for this.
Some observations:
A)The bounty hunters are tough. They dont scale down as well as they scale up. They take a lot of damage, do a lot of damage and have a lot of unique crowd control abilities and gimmicks. I wouldn't recommend installing this in a low level game unless you have some mods that severely increase player lethality.
1a) removing their ability to stimpack would make them a bit fairer if you want to keep their current durability.
2a) they have so many tricks that even with realistic damage values they can still drop you easily, but it feels a bit more fair since you can drop them a bit more easily without using two thirds of your ammunition and 3 different guns
3a) AI mods such as arbitration turn these dudes into hyper aggressive terminators if thats what you're into. Was testing it with real.ai and they basically snuck up and backstabbed me without me every noticing they were there.10/10 that was kinda awesome.
4a) as the mod maker said, they will follow you anywhere,this includes your settlements, which they will annihilate unless you've got it locked down like fort knox.
5a) some of them seem to be harder to target in vats, it'd be nice if this was a little bit more clear. I actually quite like the idea of an enemy using a "Vats disruptor" of some kind.
B) they spawn a bit too frequently, seems like a simple tweak for anyone interested in doing so. With how overwhelmingly tough they can be it makes more sense to have them be an infrequent boss encounter. Having to deal with them constantly can be kind of a slog, especially when they can power through hordes of enemies to get to you. Though the first time you see them cut through an enemy camp to get to you can be a pretty wild experience.
C) Kinda weird that gardner lets you work for him but will also send bounty hunters after you, sometimes while you are working for him. (But only kinda, i can still rationalize it with their code of conduct.)
1C)you gotta let them capture you one time to get favor to work for them.
2C) kinda feels like it could be split into two factions. one you participate in and one that hunts you. though i understand this would be fundamentally much more work, just tossin ideas out there.
D) The actual encounter designs are fun
1D) Bounty hunters have gimmicks which makes encounters with them feel unique and showcase cool encounter design that just isn't really present in the base game
2D)They highlight that the player's options are a bit limited. They've got throwing knives, stun grenades, poison, use stealth boys , weird electro shields that i'm not sure what they do but they look cool and other things. I'd reccomend some mods that give you some tricks of your own, though i think you can purchase a lot of these things from gardner.
E) Avoiding them doesnt seem to be an option as they always seem to know where you are, this can make squishier stealth builds a bit less viable
1E) at least you finally have a use for all those landmines in your bag
edit: Paying off your bounties would also probably be a solid feature, not sure if this actually has that.
A lot to dump on an old mod that hasn't been updated in a while, but its largely because i really like it conceptually and a lot of the groundwork is done here for a fantastic addition to the game. And honestly i'll probably try and fix these issues myself when i have time to do so but that'll be months out. (i've little to no mod making experience myself, but this is the one thats kind of inspired me to try. Take that how you will)
Awwww, Did you leave a power core thingy in your suit ?
Yes they will come into your settlement looking for you, but at some point they didn't always do that, do you have any defenses up at all ?
First the in-game story implementation. The Gardener seems like an unlikable neckbeard like "Oh I'm sorry, you don't have what it takes to be a bounty hunter, f*#@ off.", like I'm up to the point where I almost a reputable figure in the Commonwealth and killed droves of his Bounty Hunters and yet he stills give you the middle finger.
Second the game mechanic, the author should have at least provided hints and guidelines when and how to start the mod's quest. Instead the guy just straight up writes:
"Why my mod is better then you thought"
Ooookay?
Lastly and adding to the second point, the mod just boils down in throwing waves and waves of overpowered bullet sponge enemies at you. If you're looking for a deeper mod experience, best look elsewhere. I can't get behind a shallow mod that repeatedly insults and punishes the player without even giving a rewarding or at least worthwhile experience.
- The Respect System of the Bounty hunters needs to be changed or reworked.
- Too many spawns of bounty hunters at a short period of time, needs work on that.
+ Very Good weapons i love the bozar.
+ I love the self destruct mechanism of the power armored bounty hunters.
+ Love that the squad of bounty hunters has a lot of health, i treat them as a boss or miniboss fight.
Great Mod overall, needs some work but it has come far, and i will love to see what it has in the future.
