Survivor Count, Base Size, Outpost Count???!!!???

[GrimRose0w0]

Hey, can we up these numbers??? Like, there is so much content, but it's so hard to get what you want when 3/4 of it is locked behind limited access. 9 to 11 survivors? 3 max large spots? and 5 max outposts? Also it's weird that you can't have PCC Sleep to set a certain time of day. Would be nice if we could get a little extra on these things.

Ah yes... but those are 3 Bartenders, often with severe drawbacks. Perhaps the 3 whiny "it's your fault that we'd starve to death" guys will also join you if you give them enough food, but they are even more useless.

I guess technically you can have 12 survivors without doing the Builder legacy thing, but not 12 useful ones.

Er no, Boozehounds for sure has a recruit the whole enclave, but so does automechanics and so does The Soldiers.

As well there are special forced join missions such as my brother is a cop.

Any hoot picking up the Soldiers is generally the best you can get in this situation.

Ah didn't know that you could recruit the whole soldier enclave. How does that happen? Is that the same one as the one when you get to recruit the "runaway"?

The Automechanic one I haven't experiened the opportunity to recruit anyone of them beyond 9 survivors. Are there more missions after they have become Allies?

In any case, what do you want 3 Mechanics for :p

Well now that autoshop building is actually decent you may want automechanic to make those triple advanced repair kits. Engineers might be fun to stock up on attachments. (though personally I would kick them out)

If I remember correctly when they ask you for your first mission (go fight the infestation) with them simply say no. Then they will call you again later and ask for you to accept all of them into your community.

I think I lost a survivor doing that once. They immediately started shooting as they went hostile when I refused... unless I confuse these guys with a random mission where they are looting a building or something, and ask you to split the spoils.

The lumber mill is in providence ridge.
You can have 7 outposts with maxed command center, the Network antenna, and a Red Talon hacker (you must grind prestige in Daybreak to hire a soldier, the soldier must have a Hacking skill).

Thanks for the advice on the map location, but then that means you have to be dependant on a random chance DLC character inorder to get 7 outposts. So the dissapointment still remains, unless there is some way to rig the spawning.

And 4 large is a good start, but with so many options, still feels very limiting considering how many options we actually have.

Red Talon are people you can hire in, and you can choose not to accept the person called in and refund the purchase price. At which point you can wait the timer out and repeat till you get the red talon you want.

Can you see their traits before hiring them?

not normally

Thought it could be different with red talon since you're actually "paying" for them. :/
