I remember when I played this for the first time, after getting completely destroyed for hours I found myself seeing a friendly NPCs getting attacked by stuff. I thought to myself "don't help... if that doesn't get them, something else will. Just wait for the fighting and loot what might be useful", this mod really makes you resort to some scummy things to make it through
Id honestly suggest not going permideath run for your first playthrough, Dust is fun but will start to scale hard in difficulty in a short period of time. Switch from cinematic vats when you get the chance to save you time and health in the long run. Other than that, look into some lootable car mods and the Retrievable Throwables Reforged mod, they help when you're hurting for supplies... a little. Other than that, hope you enjoy Dust to the fullest, it's a really worthwhile play outside the usual hardcore mode.
Kudos for the MATN shoutout. Since you both are literally my two favorite TH-camrs, you should now definitely do some kind of crossover. Maybe you should teach Jon how to play Frost properly 😂
@@waltbeasley5878 True! I still want to scream at my screen when I watch his Frost episode where he discovers Downtown, thinks that it had bugged out because of the empty inventories at night, leaves and never comes back again.
Retrievable throwables reforged and if you're interested the new b42 bows would make this really interesting. The bows also scale off of survival too which really fits the theme
1:09:42 - You have nothing to lose by attempting to scrap the cutting board. Really, loot every junk item you come across, so you can ascertain which of them can be scrapped.
Oh hey you finally got to it, I remember you talking about it back when playing New Vegas. Goodluck! Also, it's weird that you start with all the packs. I thought DUST spawns them all over the map rather than giving them to you, but maybe that was an additional mod that I used instead. Dunno, played it like a year or more ago, but I definitely had all the unique items from the pack given out to NPCs or spawned in specific locations in my game.
I bet Wandy has some good visual mods ready to go. I love FO4 Frost, and have always considered playing this, but it's hard for me to go back to New Vegas visuals, even though like a lot of people, I consider New Vegas the best of all. Really, the shooting gameplay improved a lot with FO4, too, even if almost everything else regressed.
The combat in New Vegas makes it really hard to go back to for me. Even with mods to improve it aiming down sights is janky and inaccurate. You pretty much have to use VATS and I hate VATS. "Kill. Loot. Return." is the Fallout 4 meme but every Fallout has combat front and center as a main feature and New Vegas just did it poorly.
@@UristMicrocline idk i always found the combat fine. its fallout 3 that messes me up i need a mod just to get it half as stable as new vegas is. then again i like VATS and VATS is worthless garbage in FO4 which ruins the point of having a pip boy. also in New Vegas if ya got high enough Perception ya can snipe with a pistol long as they can be shown in VATS. hit VATS 0% to hit in VATS but aim for the head and fire manual with a pistol in stealth and have the kill cam every time blow their head off.
@@Kris-wo4pj Sounds like we just like different things and that's ok. The stuff you say you hate about 4 and like about New Vegas I like about 4 and hate about New Vegas.
@@TheWandererPlays very true not sure if you get regular casings from scrapping junk rounds but you do get casings from scraping ammunition good way to conserve weight as well
To be fair if the courier is who this is based off of then the extra gear isn't entirely wrong to have. He has been surviving since the events of new vegas.
1:02:30 - You missed because you were too close. You know how a gun's barrel will poke through an enemy's body when they're right up on you? Sort of the same problem. Probably should have thrown when you were at 92%. 😜 1:02:48 - Define irony.
So excited for this. TH-cam somehow didn't notify me. My piece of unsolicited backseat gamer advice: built to destroy is bad enough in the base game, but for this mod, it is just an increase in difficulty. Especially early-mid game, before you get jury rigging. Pretty much all weapons you find are on the verge of breaking. Most enemies drop from 1-2 hits anyway, crit or not. And I swear that those 15% increased degradation feel more like 200%. That being said, a little more difficulty won't stop Wandy.
I always go for the "min/max" end game approach, even if that means making it hard for me in the early game. I always focus on the destination when planning a character, even though it probably hutrs me more in teh short term lol. Guess that's a character flaw.
Built to destroy will be interesting, slower firing but higher damage is the standard recommendation but it'll probably be fine as long as you go heavy into repair
If you want a good middle ground between permadeath and normal vanilla NV saving, I recommend the 'No Second Chances' mod, which has a selection of alternate methods of saving the game. My favorite is needing a pack of cigarettes to smoke to save the game, turning your game saves into another consumable resource! I used it for my own Dust playthrough and I died scared and alone in a dead end filled with corpses, so bereft of resources I had to give up entirely, 20 hours in. 10/10 mod for sure, no sarcasm
I think you can scrap pencils into wood to make spears. Worth a look, there were a few of them in the houses in "Goodsprings" Excited about this series!
Technicaly speaking, this whould be the post, post, Post apocalypse, scence this is after: The Great War, The Rebuilding of Society, The New Societies( NCR, The Legion, etc) The 2nd Fall of Society. Sooooo... Yeah
when you threw away the leather duster I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOOoooo!" Sorry, it's just because in the beginning you had a Hunter's Duster that could have been repaired a bit better by it.
Radchild makes stimpaks obsolete, it'd be cool if you pick all the crafting perks, like the magazine printing one or mad bomber which gives energy/fusion cells use early on to make the oh so deadly mfc clusters. Also you can make fireant fricase with the flour
In the fallout games the charisma stat governs the prices you buy and sell at and how hard any companions you may get fight beside you meaning the higher your charisma charisma is the better fighter they are for their style so the effects of it are hidden and it just seems to be a dumb stat
Hi people! I have a problem with this mod. I installed all the mods from the list in description, in specified queue, and for reasons unknown to me it doesn't work properly. Every time when i "Begin again", I'm getting up in doc Mitchell's house near the Aggressive doc. Can you please help me? Or give me the sign?
trying to get the ultimate vanilla friendly mods collection for new Vegas i all ready have vanilla any other TH-cam friendly ones to make it look nice run great let me know.
Interesting reasoning for picking female, I use a similar one when paying F3 and NV. But in my case it's just the make hands look crusty as hell and that's the part of my character I see most of the time.
Glad I am not the only one that noticed and was bothered by this! Yes, the area where the thumb connects to hand specifically looks so dirty on the male model.
Hey, so maybe you figured this out, but I came across this in your video. I believe the hot plate you picked up allows you to cook inside your crafting kit, which was why you could get the dog steaks in this episode.
I tried to install this mod because concepts are pretty solid but don't have main quest (escape) and have dlc quests and markers for them Any suggestions? Can't find anything on this topic in the internet, used vortex, also installed some fix mods for dust (all from recommended section on nexus) Can it be because of PCR version of new vegas? Thx Edit: it was PCR edition trouble, changed language through steam properties and its worked, but I don't have ant eggs in goodspring's school, is it okay? I have ants but I have mantis eggs, not ants
I don't know how many years i've been watching The Wanderer play Fallout, but it's a ritual that conects me with mental sanity and reality of the world in an upper level since i had to sold my gaming pc because of the economic situation in Argentina.

The term is "post post-apocalypse apocalypse" I think. There IS an "optimal" DUST build btw. It's 10 str, 10 endurance, 10 intelligence, 7 agility, 1 perc, 1 luck, 1 charisma (agility/intelligence is flexible), with Skilled and Heavy Handed, main skills Melee, Repair, Survival. You can coast on tunneller, gecko and coyote loot for healing and manage your stuff very easily especially with Repair giving you jury rigging. Melee kills everything in the game (I even reduced the secret invincible boss to 0 health) and gets obscenely powerful very quickly, and you have a billion sustain perks like Rad Child. You don't need Luck since Heavy Handed makes up the difference easily letting you have more efficient SPECIAL distribution. You can technically kill NCR by stacking a ton of healing but you want to perk into Energy Weapons late game to get the Makeshift Particle Pistol + Pyromaniac (shishkebab) to kill NCR safely (Particle Pistol is obscenely ammo efficient doing massive damage at cost of a single ECP). You can go insane or don't. You want to get the Sound of Mind perk as soon as possible, it takes all your current sanity and then sets it to zero, and permanently increases your max health by 1/10th that amount, it doesn't reward you for current sanity but rather the sanity you had when you took the perk. It's the end game level 50 perk but available right away, so stack booze etc to hit 1000 sanity and then take that perk and you become so much more tanky. Since the "canon" start is very close to Nipton I like to go there first and get the handy loot from the ex-legion guys there, with some good kiting tactics you can pretty easily kill them all and there's a toilet for health restoration.
The viva new vegas install guide does literally say that, but I mean... if you want to play Dust, you want to play Dust, ya know? I'd say for stability sake, use a minimal mod loadout like the one linked in the description.

The scummy things you have to do Is what makes this mod so Good Because its Shit you would really have to do in the real world
This was such a good announcement that I even set the “premiere” reminder 😂 it’s good to have you back in fallout stuff
would not mind him doing Oxygen Not Included or The Long Dark (interloper) though :D
i really appreciate the ominous combat music during the ant fight in the school house
Can't believe I managed to kill them all with no hits taken. If only I could play Elden Ring that well.
YES! When the game starts and you hear the beginning music to fallout 1 you know you're going to have a good time.

Oh this is absolutely what I’ve been asking for
There's a mod that lets you recover some of your throwing spears. Can't remember the name but rycon used it with his last run.
It just got an update too and allows for the even cooler mod b42 bows which has full animations and arrow crafting
i am currently seething at the fact he didn't realize he could repair the hunter's duster with the other duster.

Omg everytime you post i get so happy
You had enough of the nuclear winter constant snow storm?
Go to the Mojave and get all your nuclear summer and dust storm needs!
Oh yeah. Been waiting for this for a long time.
Yo so excited for this brotha can't wait!
:) it's been a long time but wandy is back in the dust...
Just a reminder that you can use the ammo workbench to scrap junk into lead and junk rounds to make regular ammunition hope it helps

Good Frost playthrough. Was hoping for Dust tho
28:36 that was perfect timing lol
Fallout Wandy is back!!
Holy shit Dust playthrough LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You are back yeah
Making me feel old remembering how I found you. Witching hour vids and something to help the insomnia 🤍
Hooray! Very excited for this!
Talk about finding a new series to watch!! Looks like im gonna be binging this!!

frost is good but the vibe of dust will always do it better for me idk why just super eerie
I hope he gets better at noticing that he's throwing away item that can repair his worn items. The "R" keeps lighting up and he never notices it yet.
Oh sick, so glad you're playing this!
wanderer finally got around to doing a dust LP..
Welcome back Wandy. I know I've been missing your content
Let's go wanderer I've been looking forward to this series one question are you going to go into the dlc areas
Everywhere if possible. I'll skip areas that are too hard and come back later, but I want to do and see everything Dust has to offer.
Dogs brutally murdered: 5
I started my own playthrough of Dust and I got to start with a brush gun near Lake Mead.

Are you not able to break down junk items, like Irons and whatnot?
Would cool if you could get Scrap Metal and Scrap Electronics from stuff like that.
Not sure, I can try that though. I didn't see a breakdown recipe for it in the crafting kit.
