Now if only I could find clear instructions on how to find my vault save inside BlueStacks. All I keep finding are instructions that require several different programs or apps to be installed, and I'd really rather not do that.

EDIT: Nevermind. Apparently I've updated to some shit version of BlueStacks that even looks completely different and it's just loading forever now. So there went my vault then.

[Puupi]

Started a fresh new vault today. I played the game a bit a year ago on bluestacks, nice to see there are some new features.

I have some issues clicking and dragging the dwellers sometimes... I hope they fix this bug(?)....

Btw, if you are interested in Patch 1.6 info, here it is:

What's New in Version 1.6

For the one Year Anniversary Vault-Tec engineers have been working overtime to create our biggest update EVER.

- Introducing Quests! Now you can travel OUTSIDE the Vault with your Dwellers to explore new locations! Vault-Tec is not responsible for lost time, or Dwellers.
- Explore the Wasteland like never before. Abandoned Buildings, Red-Rocket, Super Duper Mart and more.
- New and Improved combat gives you more control over your Questing Dwellers.
- Battle new enemies like Ghouls and Radscorpions and take on powerful boss enemies.
- New items added to the store including the Vault-Tec approved Starter-Pack and a varietyof Nuka-Cola Quantum bundles to hasten your adventures.
- Please find Paula.

Undocumented Changes:

- New room, the Overseer's Office. Cost 1000 caps. Used to send dwellers on quests. Adds quest icon to Pipboy. Upgrade to do up to 3 quests at once.
- New items: Nuka-cola Quantum; used to accelerate things like instant quest completion, barbershop, skip more than 1 objective per day, and craft items instantly.
- Can enter locations found in Wasteland and kill enemies or save people
- 7 new craftable weapons (Fire Hydrant Bat)
- No new craftable outfits
- When equipping a Pet, Weapon, or Armor, you can now look at only items in your inventory, or include items equipped on other characters. You can now assign pets that other dwellers are using!

Quests

- Seems to work like Garrisons from World of Warcraft
- Select quests and assign followers to quest
- Quests have rewards, when quest selection is done followers automatically leave to do the quest
- Starts a mini-game when dwellers arrive at quest location. You can kill enemies, loot enemies, and loot objects. Find caps, gear, junk, and Nuka-cola so far
-There are daily quests. I sent one and it had 2 Deathclaws which slaughtered my 3 lvl 50 dwellers
- Load up on stimpacks when doing the higher level quests!
- Elite enemies grow green and drop better loot

Alot of new content

Does it have cloud save as the android/ios version? I can't seem to find it so far.

Wish Fallout Shelter would come on Steam (for free of course), and that there'd be some interconnectivity with it and Fallout 4.

Wonder if this'll get any mods? Could be interesting if a decent modder uses the engine to make a 2D Side scroller fallout game.

Loving this game for pc, only issue I have is the damn %'s lolol 29% chance to fail, and it fails like almost all the time >.> Even if the % to fail is super low I feel like its almost always 75% chance for failure with my luck

[zerocarbs]

Playing this game on mobile and ever since the update I keep getting objective resets. Searching google it seems people were making posts about this problem a year ago. So an entire year and they haven't fixed this? Made an account on the official forum and for some reason I'm not allowed to post there. See this is why I don't spend money on freemium games.

[Deleted]

Absolutely zero reason to spend a single dime on Fallout Shelter. You can get pets and Handies from boxes and quests (assuming those don't reset, of course.) Also, you don't need either.

There are "freemium" games that actually give you an edge when you buy shit, but in Fallout Shelter, you'll do just fine on your own, and won't really even speed things up by buying stuff.

[Guy4123]

Whaaaaat you can actually transfer your vault from Android to PC? Now I can play my old vault again. It was beginning to run super shit on my phone.

My record is 4 fails at 10% for the same room. Was trying to get a dweller's happiness to go up, instead I ended up lowering the happiness of everyone else in the room.

The failure rate goes up every time you fail, so you can't really get four 10%s in a row.

It slowly goes back down to 10% over time. I never rush unless it's at 10% and it's always just for the happiness boost.

Well since it's a Bethesda game you'll probably see legions of mods to change the colors of outfits, nude bodies, animu bodies, BDSM stuff, and John Cena/Macho Man Randy Savage/etc. skins for mobs long before you see any significant/interesting changes to gameplay.

Oh yeah, it drops... I thought you meant you did them back to back.
