How many found the quest "Message in a bottle" ?

[Browser_ice]

Through exploration I found a bottle with a message in it that led to a quest (very short one).

I am just wondering how many found that quest.

It is very easily missed even if you happen to walk over there and there are no indications to point you there. Even if youhappen to be walking beside it, there is no warning or message. You just have to pick it up like any other objects.

Please don't say where you found it. Let the others find it (sort of forcing them to explore !).

There are more than one.

Haven't seen it or even heard about it but it doesn't surprise me in the least. These games are filled with cool and odd things like this.

Just about every time I go somewhere obscure, off the beaten track where I think no one ever expected me to go...I'll find some quirky skeleton, some funny graffitti (that often sounds like some disgruntled cubicle worker muttering under his breath about his boss) and almost always, some little cache of interesting, and sometimes unique, items.

I wouldn't walk past a bottle without picking it up so I'm sure I'll eventually find it. It doesn't sound like something I would go looking for though.

It would be cool if there were a lot more stuff like this, rather than scripted quests with PipBoy markers, etc. This is one of the coolest things about games like this - it rewards the curious explorers amongst us.

I've explored almost every location on the Commonwealth and I have not seen any of these mini quests.

Check your Misc in the inventory and see if you haven't picked up odd notes/etc off dead enemies. Was autolooting everything for a while to discover to my suprise I had like 4 random quests open all of a sudden.
I personally haven't found the bottle yet, but you'd be suprised at how many little quests are there to be found like that

Found one of them but dont get a quest. Only a info (as i remember) not leading to other bottles.

Found two thus far. No idea how many there are total.

I've found a few of these "undocumented" quests. One I can remember off the top of my head and is easy to find starts with a note taken off a dead body in the Boathouse settlement. The note describes how a couple of kids stole some drugs and stashed it. If you follow the (somewhat) vague directions to the stash you'll not only find the drugs stash but also find out what happened to the kids.

Message in the bottle is one of the random encounters that spawn a misc item with a misc mission.

Intervention
Combat Rifle
Pickmans Gallery

Those are some of the other misc random encounter messages.

There are 6 bottles. Had to check the wiki as I haven't found any yet. I do have 4 of the robot models though without the wiki's help.

I havn't found it, message in a bottle sounds like somewhere in the water (like when you are stranded on an island for example and you hope a passing ship or boat finds it)

What happens if you are either on an island or a boat and you throw a closed bottle at the sea. Where will it eventually wind up ? Not in the middle of the city that's for sure.

There's a static one at the castle, just walk around it on the beach and you will find it. I haven't done the quest for it yet, I keep forgetting I have all those minor quests to do.
