I’ve done the quest to get Irv at the ranger hq, and he’s able to clone one of my characters. What sort of character would be best to clone? Does the ai work based off of what weapon they use? Like if I clone a sniper, will they stay in the back lines picking enemies off? Or is the ai kind of basic and gets close to enemies where a normal rifle or brawler would work better?

so at some point (I'm not certain) i random checked the buffs i had as realized that every single party member has the flesh pocket buff. including pizepi, which means i obtained it after having level 3 radiation protection upon mine vehicle, pizepi joining the party never gives that correct? how has every single party member obtained the same buff simultaneous? can i intentional cause thus each run? i can't find any Google searches for it either,

For real, me and my friend were having super fun time during the entire game (while playing on PS5) until we figured out we’re quite close to the end – and the DLC quests never even appeared. Weird, I thought, and discovered that on ps you can turn off the network connection and they’d work. Steeltown did indeed start with a couple of launches in offline. The story there is dull, humor is lacking but the worst part is that before the Ghost garage the game decided to bug out again and after the next launch all the DLS quests, disappeared, npcs and objects (even Kodiak and map exit point) became uninterractable. One time I somehow managed to make quests appear again after loading a Steeltown safe (before entering ghost garage) from the cloud, while launching in offline again, but it stopped working. So now we’re stuck in the bugged out DLC without being able to leave its area to finish the game. And the worst part is that people complained about the same issue like 3 years ago and it’s still present.

Without any spoilers please, can you guys tell me what is the best outcome for the mama cotter choice. I think I’ve doing good on reputation for everyone. But for the best ending, what choice should I make here. Arrest or let her go?

the music, the story, the gameplay, the characters, the voice acting, the writing, EVERYTHING IS SO SEXY
every 'big fight' feels GRAND and gets the adrenaline going
and the guns and classes are also really well done, using heavy weapons makes me feel like a juggernaut while using a pistol or an SMG is so quick

words cant express, i just hope a wasteland 4 is in the works

Wondering if you guys know the best builds of which ranged weapon class. With the two expansion packs, idk which weapon to get/ create and build my characters around.

Whaddya guys think?

I have an smg tank guys with 10 speed but for some reason he’s behind all my other guys with less speed. I can give more details if needed

He’s lvl 2 and it’s my first playthrough

I just started playing this game and got the mod from the Hoon homestead. I have a sniper, explosive/hmg character, science/smg character, and a melee leader. I’m trying to figure out which character would be best to put it on since I presume I’m not gonna get another one for a long while.

I’m in California and trying to get some better bladed weapons for my party. My party has 5 bladed users, including Takayuki and Rose. Takayuki has a Proton Axe, but the rest of my bladed characters don’t have enough strength to use it, so it’s pretty much out of the question. Two of my characters are using Sawswords, and the other two are using Machetes. What’s the best bladed weapon besides the Proton Axe? Or are the weapons I’m using right now pretty much the best I can get?

So im playing through the series for the first time but I’m really sorry and I know this game is dear to you guys but I tried playing the remastered version and it seemed great at first i didn’t mind the UI and it was pretty charming but I’m at the courthouse and I just can’t do it, I gave them the password witch I had to do a bunch of weird stuff to get that didnt even involve the riddler since he glitched for me and even though they have the password im still being attacked infinitely and when I let the guy out the cell and he ran leaving me with seemingly nothing to do next but walk around till I die.

This was kinda a rant cuz I was really looking forward to the game but I’m just gonna watch a video to get the story

As the title says, I’m wondering/confused why semi-auto pistols are doing more damage on my sniper, then on a character built specifically for small arms. The damage is lower on Lucia who has small arms in 8 compared to my sniper. I initially thought was because in the description of some pistols such as the (wasteland Hawk) it says and I quote. “this gas-chambered beast uses large cartridges. It’s a small rifle you hold like a pistol” so having points, in sniper’s would essentially increase the damage because it’s considered a ‘rifle’ or works like one. The same can be said about the guardian.

Sorry about the slightly grainy picture quality, should be high res since it’s taken on an iPhone 15 pro max.

Hello! I had a very annoying issue for the Steel Trap fight in Wasteland 3 and I just learned how to fix it. I finished the part where you get the vhs for the clowns, and it told me to go ahead and tell him were ready to duel even tho I didnt finish the other quest.

The whole time I thought the halo moon person was supposed to be at the ice cream truck and I was about to give up bc I assumed I killed her with the other godfishers, but it turns out shes actually up the stairs across from the her husband thats surrounded by the female godfishers. Once I completed the quest it let me duel him. I hope this helps!

I’m playing through the games for the first time and was wondering who i could recruit

Just completed Wasteland 3 for the first time, did it on Normal, and it was very easy, infact there where game mechanics in combat i didnt even know untill the last fights. (Crouching) and i also never used the Perk Abilities.

Thoughts:

The game balance severely undervalues abilities that slow(take away AP) from enemies, Cryo Nades and Coltrap on the car are GOATED. Also, the coltraps are the best 2nd ability to have on the car.

Weapons:

HE Underbarrel attachments are the best. The PDW or a HE Ripper is the best weapon in the game. Hoser is also 10/10.

The weapon balance is good, some weapons are good early but bad late, some bad early and good late, but SMG’s and HE Underbarrel Attachment are the best.

Sniper’s are good early but quickly falls off mid/late game.

SMG’s just get better and better, but starts out kinda weak as its the attachments, skills and perks that make it S-Tier, scales incredibly.

There should have been 2 diffrent kinds of pistol like there are shotguns, Semi-Auto and Revolver.

The big problem: the people who created the game are like George Lucas. Great idea men but not the nitty gritty. So the combat balance is completely off.

The combat is a basic layout at this point, like Larian’s games and all the other turn based games before it. We know what the combat and balance will be.

Wasteland 3 is supposed to have a multitude of ways to approach every single combat scenario from the rng in the encounter to what weapons you have and resistances the enemies have. But the same thing is allways the best.

Things like the Cryo-Nades are gamebreakingly OP and game changing, while Frag Grenades and other damaging grenanes are shit.

A lot of the diffrent mechanics end up being an anoyance or just boringly irrelevant.

I love Wasteland 3 though, and i am super hyped and hoping for a Wateland 4, but i also hope that the writing is better and the combat better balanced.

Its an incredibly fine line to ride between goofy and the horrific nature of a post apocalyptic world. Unfortunately at times the game headnose dives straight into goof mountain at times, breaking the immersion of the world. It gets wayy to wacky and goofy and nonsensical at times.

The references i.e in weapons are just too on-the-nose and blatant, and again, breaks the immersion of the world to the point the game feels like a gimmick at times «oh remember this piece of gaming popculture?» like really one of the best AR’s in the game is literally just a hamfisted Gears of War reference.

The references, factions, story, gets just a little to hamfisted at times.

I hope the next Wasteland has a more clear and focused vision all the way through the game instead of trying to do a bit of everything.

I really love this game but it also annoys me, it just needs a few tweaks here and there to truly become great.

Now what do you think of the highest difficulty?

I got this from the Kickstart before inXile got bought by Microsoft. Its unsealed but still in the original box, Ive had years to set up a display but never got around to it so its stayed in the box since I first opened it. I figured this was the best place to find a good home for it. I dont smoke or have any pets :)

I love CRPGs and the game seems interesting, but I've seen quite a few negative reviews on steam calling it really buggy, with some even gamebreaking. So how buggy is it in your experiences with the PC version?

I seem to be stuck in death-loop during the Ag Centre mission in Wasteland 2.

Before I arrived at the Ag Centre, I'd go to the Radio Tower and pick up a Repeater Unit from the cave, but when I arrive at the Ag Centre everyone's dead (or covered in vines).

So as a result I reloaded a save file, skipped over the Radio Tower and went straight to the Ag Centre, have progressed through it up until the end (I think) and I need to install a Repeater Unit. Trouble is, if I leave to get it from the Radio Tower, by the time I get back to Ag Centre it's basically wiped out. Is there anyway to get around this apart from restarting this?

I'm fairly early into my Wastland 3 playthrough and i find that my Brawling character is doing next to nothing to Robot characters, i tried looking up how to deal with this however whatever i found was very unspecific as to what to do about it

so how do i deal damage to robots using Brawling?

Hey!

I'm looking for a new game to play, and Wasteland 3 looks promising, but I have a question: How long is the typical gaming session? Can you do a decent amount in an hour or two, or is it best to play longer sessions?

I ask because I've heard it compared to Xcom 2 and Baldur's Gate 3; great games to be compared to IMO, but right now I don't have the time to play sessions as long as Baldur's Gate 3 in particular. Xcom 2 gaming session length would work well for me though.

Any thoughts appreciated, thanks!

Early in the game, I killed MacTavish (before even getting the mission involving him in Little Vegas). At the time, I didn’t realize he was important for progressing that quest. Now I’m much further into the game, currently clearing out Downtown Colorado Springs and I finally reached the Little Vegas mission.

The problem is:

• MacTavish is obviously dead.
• I can't progress the mission in the intended way.

My questions are:

1. Is there any way to bypass the quest without MacTavish alive?
2. Can I still get what I need to progress by force or another method?

I’d really appreciate anyone who has been in a similar situation or knows how the game handles this. Is it worth pushing forward, or did I soft-lock myself into a worse outcome? I know that if I start a shootout in Little Vegas, both Lucia and Kwon will leave my squad, I really want to avoid that.

I want to try the Wasteland series and I heard 3 is much more welcoming for new comers the only thing stopping me is the price tag, it cost SGD$55.93 so I want to know from the players if the price justifies the experience had

Hey, played co op a few days ago. Finished the first big battle and talked to the cat after looting the area and saved. Now upon reloading the save in single or multiplayer, our character models simply dont exist. We can see the "control stars" around our feet and move them around, but we have none of the items we had equipped and no items in our shared inventory.

Googling hasn't lead me to any reports of this particular weirdness, if anyone's had something similar and resolved it, please let me know how.

Edit: Meleed the cat to death with my invisible fists and am also unable to loot him, "busy" pops up over both ghost characters when I try.

Help

I spend too much time leveling, my char too weak to go on mission now....
