idea for part three story maybe

[Keaba]

ive always loved that in the base game we can work with multiple factions that have wildly diferent methods and goals in game but it has also always driven me nuts that we cannot establish formal alliances.

thanks to ss2 we now can technically say the sole survivor lead two of the major factions in the commonwelth (hq and minutemen) yet we cannot have diplomants from other factions on hand as representatives of the fact we are working with them or to "negotiate" alliances.

so my idea is this when part three drops could we see each major faction from the commonwelth on the stage in some way and be able to build up our own faction not just by well building it but also but absorbing other groups into it.

for example if we strike an alliance with the brotherhood we would have to spend some logistics from hq as a supply deal but as a result our army would now have air support or power armor units available for battle while the railroad if allied would use reserch power and would give a spy unit that destroys enemy defences like turrets ect.

this is a really rough outline but if something like this can happen in part three plz plz plz have minor factions like the atom cats and children of atom available as allies

If this is what you want then by all means you should make it.
All the tools are available for free.
KG and the SS2 team already have a vision for chapter 3 and they will release that vision when they see fit.
Assuming conquer is returning there will likely be faction packs again. You might see some of the smaller factions then.

i suggested it because conqueror had something similar so it is possible this could happen and beyond that if the special unit function returns this is more a suggestion for a method of integrating that i am not a mod author by any stretch if they did not want to see suggestions there would not be a suggestion tab and while i appreciate that you took the time to read my suggestion and respond to it your statement comes across as you trying to gatekeep and tell me to !@#& off

For 90+% of the valid suggestions made in this forum the best answer is to do it yourself.
I tell people this ALL the time.
Its not gatekeeping and I'm not telling you to fuck off. I am telling you to get off your ass and do it yourself.
All of the tools for you to become a mod author are available to you for free. There are many tutorials that will teach you all you would want to know about modding FO4. The only thing stopping you is you.

The suggestions you made would be great for an add on pack as it allows for customization of play. Introducing your factions/unit actions would allow you to customize the game yo be played how YOU want it played. Others might not want that.

fair enough my bad and while this would be intresting as an add on it is not like adding plots in order for this to make sense at all it would need to hook into the story somehow and regardless would have to wait until part three drops
