Check for ASAM Sensors at West Everett Estates

[FO4Life]

Hi, perhaps this "problem" has already been addressed? Entered basement and killed mutants which, after searching google, wasn't the thing to do. No biggie, reloaded and talked to mutants to advance quest.

The "Problem" is [unless I missed some info in talking to the Stranger] that it isn't clear that you don't go into the basement amd kill the mutants. So, a solution would be to trigger a quest update upon entering the Basement which shows message on screen to TALK TO MUTANTS.

I have learned playing Fallout unless muties attack on site they might be good or needed for a quest. Not all mutants need to die.

Unless you are role-playing an anti-mutie, shoot-em all type!

You're supposed to talk to them? I guess that explains why I didn't actually get any ASAMs from that quest. I just assumed it was bugged.

Happens a lot. Nothing in the game or the mod suggests you shouldn't go in guns blazing, hell Jake outright tells you to be ready for a fight. It almost needs a "consolation prize" or at least a message that you missed out on something in there somewhere, I've been saying this for months but keep getting told the official stance is 'too bad, you shouldve just KNOWN'.

I'm sure its a double-edged sword. If it was spelled out, the reaction would be "You broke my immersion!"

There has been and always will be GOOD or NON hostable mutants in. Fallout gotta expect if they don't fire first and you're that close give it a minute for dialogue to start. Yeah know Strong is one. I think its funny people killing them and then thinking it a bug. Fallouts a RPG not a shooter. Sometimes in life you need to work with or be the bad guy for good things.

For me It was more I walk in and the shoot me on sight. No other options were given. Just fight. Then after searching every where and no finding Adams. I look on here to find that they were supposed to be friendly. Didn't save for 3 or hours before hand and now stuck.

I went in guns blazing my first time through. LOL

Heck, when I first started playing, I tried to kill all the robots at Greygarden because I hadn't seen any other robots outside Codsworth-less that were friendly. LOL

heck, I have so many settler and NPC mods now I almost always wait for them to aggro.

I have accidentally killed too many farmers/settlers/non-hostiles I got tired of rolling back.

not at all complaining, just saying.

Pretty sure you can pick up the 20 sensors off Sickle's body if you kill everyone in the basement. At least that's what i did on my first save. It was weird not seeing them fight back but... Was really surprised when the other time I was actually able to talk to them and start a quest!
Old post, I know.
