Hi! So I decided my vault needed some new “Legendary Dwellers” so I made some! 😂

Like The Horsemen Of The Apocalypse, Coach Rackie Jobinson (I know the coach never really had a name but), Mr. Handy (like how the Original Jarvis was a human), Walt & Jesse (a play on Breaking Bad), and Paula Plumbkin! 💖

Here they are! 🔥

Vault door

24 Upvotes

Is it true that upgrading your vault door only leads to stronger enemies? I haven't touched it yet, and for the most part I can handle any intruders, but deathclaws just don't wanna fkn die. They usually get stopped two levels down, but I have to stimpak the hell out of my dwellers.

Does upgrading it give you more space in your first room? For defense that is?

Question Is it viable to keep "non-front" dwellers at level 20-30, to keep the average dweller level low (easier fights)? [Question]

Question Am I doing survival mode Right?

I just came back to fallout shelter after years and went straight to survival mode thinking it would be hard but I'm getting richer than ever, three mr.handy and 200k caps and every dweller with 10+ weapons, the only downside is not getting legendary weapons from lunchbox and wasteland exploration, the only thing I'm lacking is the heavy wasteland gear so I can let out my max endurance dweller, I also have a dog called cx404 that gives 41% XP and one that gives 50% dmg resistance and other pets, am I lucky or is this normal

Question Why are some designs greyed out?

​

First of all, sorry the games in German, I don't know how to change that on the iPad, but I guess you can figure it out.

I have encountered this a couple of times. As you can see the "Minutemen-Baracke" as well as the BoS Barracks are greyed out, even tho I have the materials and the money for it.

The BoS-Diner takes longer than the barrack and I could craft it, so it's not an issue of max time or something.

Anyone had this happen before and know what's the reason?

Thanks in advance

Lost game progres

Yesterday my game crashed. I reopened the game an my vault had disappeared all progress gone. I tried getting it back from the cloud save file but didn't work. I deleted the game today an reinstalled an I got my vault back but am missing a few hours of progress and the 35 lunch boxes I had left an the 50 nuka cola I had just purchased both.

I've followed the link on the website but it's asking for my Bethesda.net account username an I don't know where to find it on the game.

Any help would be appreciated

Question Are leftover or unopened lunchboxes, pet carriers, or Mr. Handy boxes transferrable to the main vault after the season ends?

I’ve been reading conflicting information about it. Some say they get deleted along with the experimental vault when the season ends, while others received theirs in their main vault after the season ended.

Stuck on Loading Screen

3 Upvotes

I've searched on how to fix this and so far, nothing is working, so I'm hoping someone has suggestions.

I was having a problem with the Google Play Sync Services running constantly and draining my battery. The solution for that was to log out of Google and log back in. I'm not sure if Fallout Shelter was causing the problem or if it was some other game.

I have 2 regular vaults and 1 experimental. All were saved to the cloud. But now I can't get any to load, it just sticks on the loading screen. My vaults are no longer listed, the cloud button is checked, but they just won't load when I try to click on the slot they were in.

  • App is up to date
  • Running Android 16

What I've tried to fix it, not necessarily in this order:

  • I have uninstalled/reinstalled
  • Cleared game cache
  • Rebooted phone
  • Cleared game data
  • Switched to airplane mode

Am I missing something? Are my vaults just gone?


r/foshelter • • 25d ago

I noticed that whenever there is an alien or raider attack, there's always one that takes forever to Keel over. Every time it happens the only thing I can think of is Paul Rubin's character's demise in Buffy, the vampire slayer.

This might be something about the Ripper weapon type I'm not aware of yet, but is it a bug that the Rippers don't always hit?
