Fallout 4’s Most Overlooked Early-Game Locations | Fallout 4 Survival Mode

There is a surprising amount to discover around Sanctuary and western Concord in Fallout 4. In this video, we explore a series of lesser-known places to gain every advantage we can for Survival Mode. ► Full Playlist:    • Fallout 4 Survival Mode | All SPECIAL at 1...   In this Fallout 4 Survival Mode challenge, we visit some of Fallout 4's often overlooked camps, farms, ruins and roadside locations packed with food, ammo, crafting materials, XP and useful early-game supplies. Along the way, we visit Abernathy Farm, pick up a conveniently placed quest for later, hunt wildlife for food, clear Wicked Shipping and uncover what its owners were really doing, trade away excess gear, collect rare crafting components, antibiotics, explosives and ammunition, and finish the trip by turning everything we gathered into better settlement resources and improved equipment. None of these locations is especially dramatic on its own, but together they provide exactly the kind of steady progression that makes Fallout 4 Survival Mode much easier.

A normal Fallout 4 character receives 21 additional SPECIAL points during character creation, but we give up all of them and use the Custom SPECIAL mod to keep every starting attribute at its minimum. This means that most perks initially remain out of reach and many early level-ups have to be spent simply improving SPECIAL attributes instead of immediately building a powerful character. Combat in this Fallout 4 walkthrough is also restricted to VATS only. Every attack against an enemy must be performed through VATS, meaning low Perception directly affects our accuracy while low Agility severely limits the number of attacks we can make. Powerful weapons alone therefore cannot compensate for weak character stats, putting much more emphasis on character building, equipment choices, Action Point management and Fallout 4's RPG mechanics. Finally, this remains a completionist Fallout 4 walkthrough. The goal is to explore every location, complete every quest, unlock every achievement and experience as much of the game's story, dialogue, lore and content as possible. Survival Mode adds further restrictions including disabled fast travel, limited saving and additional resource management, making careful exploration, crafting and settlement building especially important throughout the playthrough. Fallout 4 is an open-world action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and originally released in 2015. Set in the post-apocalyptic Commonwealth around Boston, Fallout 4 follows the Sole Survivor after emerging from Vault 111 more than 200 years after a nuclear war. The game combines first- and third-person combat with the VATS targeting system, SPECIAL-based character progression, extensive exploration, quests, crafting and settlement building across a large open world.
