The bows they added are a legit sneak attack weapon. If you get all the max rank bow perks (12 perception to equip them all), mr sandman, and sneak attack, you do a fuckton of damage. Combined with the Chinese stealth suit and you've got a pretty nice silent ranged attack setup.
So I just put a red border there around a few things..... That's from using the Bethesda launcher. CCTV? Thermal?
And while they don't sell information, they give it away for free for "benefits"? Says that they have to inform the residents of California, but I guess the above applies to anyone who uses it? That seems like the beginning of a sequel to the South Park Apple episode.

My main issues with the game are lack of ultrawide (3 monitor) support and not being able to remap some of the keybinds. Not what most people care about, I know. But there are so many good games out that do allow me those options that I generally skip games that make me jump through hoops.
I did like the game well enough as a casual who didn't play much of the other games in the Fallout universe. And go back occasionally to shoot stuff for a couple of hours. Downloaded the new patch, ran into the same bs and noped out. So unless they fix those issues, will never do much more than that.

Ok so, for 9 bucks, the Wastelanders expac isn't too bad so far. I am only level 5, but I am going through the story line and such. This camping/creation thing is confusing as fuck though. Shooting is still clunky as all get out (But its been like this in every fallout) and I am definitely never buying anything on their store or subbing to their BS sub - but since I bought it used for 9 bucks and Bethesda isn't seeing a damn dime, I do not feel bad. Going to team up with someone on PS4 to go through some things. Could go south fast, but so far the NPC additions make this feel like New Vegas (Not as well written up to this point) but I am only 2-3 missions in. I just got passed the part where I destroyed everyone in the wood mill. I am ignoring the robot/non npc shit right now. That garbage is boring as fuck.

Yeah fast travel is wonky. Hover over where you want to go, hold down A/X (Whatever the bottom button is if on console - unsure on PC) and the fast travel option will pop up for a cap fee.

Some of the robot shit is good, though, and they gave a bunch of them dialogue trees. Like the protectron that is mad it has to stand next to its owners rotting corpse for eternity because of how it was programmed lol
The pioneer scout quests give you a backpack plan that boosts carry weight. At level 50 it’s 60 bonus weight (I think the base one is 10 bonus and you can craft a new one every 10 levels).

Sounds about right. Bows are a little tricky. They aren't hitscan, so you have to lead and account for arrow drop. They also require you "charge" the arrow by holding down left click until it's fully drawn, then letting go to fire. They also require a decent amount of perks to make them deadly/OP.
On my main character I already run a sneak/sniper build, so I was able to try out bow without changing my stats really (just getting the new perk cards). I run all 4 max rank bow perks (12 perception needed), sneak attack and mr sandman max rank (5 total agi needed), and bloody mess (3 luck needed). Without a Chinese stealth suit, you'd want more sneaking perks as well to avoid detection. Sneak Attack and Mr Sandman all max rank make your ranged silenced weapon sneak attacks at night do a 3.5x modifier, so when combined with bloody mess damage boost, you do a ton of damage. At max reputation with the settlers or raiders, you get a compound bow schematic, but looks like its only 10 base damage more than a normal max level bow.

Not until 50. Special stats only gain until level 50, then after 50 at level up you have option to reallocate a special point or pick new perk cards.
you can shuffle your owned perk card load outs at any time, though. So like I’ll run damage perks, but if I need to pick a lock, I swap out some of the dmg perks for picklock, then swap back. Supposedly they are working on the ability to save perk load outs so you can do that automatically vs manually shuffling your cards up

Ok sweet. Another thing about leveling. When you open a perk pack is it random perk cards or set? Also when I level a stat it's forcing me to take a card I don't want. When I do the character builder website it makes it seem like you don't pick a stat until that card comes up. So do I wait and put stats in perception until level 7 and the specific card I want or do you just pick a card and swap it out later. Kinda confused on that leveling process.

When you get a perk pack at level up, it gives you bonus random cards that are added to your pool of owned perk cards. However, you are given some level dependent cards at level up outside the perk packs as well when you select a stat. One thing that isn’t explained, though, is when you pick a stat at level up, you aren’t forced to pick a card then and there from that stat...you can pick a different perk card for a dif stat.
So say you pick 1 extra in STR. It will then show you some STR cards you can pick from to add to your collection. However, you can choose instead to pick something perk card wise from the other stats if you like instead.
