Huh... This does work and completely breaks the game.
Opening lunchboxes is fun, though! Thanks for sharing!

Played for a while and had a lot of fun with it, but As I got to about 50 Dwellers, I can't play anymore on my old Ipad 2. Game crashes every 5 minutes or so. And it runs like crap even when not crashing.
With no Android version in sight (it would run better on my xperia Z3), I must stop playing at this point. Maybe I'll start a new vault once the Android version is out. Maybe.

It still runs like crap on my iPad Air 2, but I have my vault maxed out.
I'm maxed and have 20+ high level people out at a time. I get 10-20 rare items a day. Progress on getting new items is still slow. I'm only getting a few new items a day.

this just got updated to v1.0.3:
I'm testing if the lunchbox glitch has been patched now..
EDIT: its been patched - once you complete either of the 2 missions included in the glitch the notification never disappears and you also collect the reward for it if you tap the pip boy menu so its unavoidable

Does this game still not have icloud support? Kind of kills its playability for me since I jump between my phone and ipad throughout the day.
I expected more. Not even a mention of the shit performance with 150+ dwellers, or the myriad of related issues like not being able to open lunchboxes because you have too many dwellers, challenges to have 5000 babies, etc.

I'm gonna assume they were working on a lot more for this patch but shipped it to patch the lunchbox glitch early
I just deleted this off my phone yesterday. I'd hit 200 dwellers and it didn't seem like there was anything left to do. My Vault was unstoppable. Raiders never made it past the entrance because I had two guards posted, one with a missile launcher (20 dmg) and one with a plasma/pulse rifle (17-19 dmg). Food, Power, and Water production was rocking to the point where incidents hardly cost me anything. Would have been neat to see some endgame stuff for people who got to this point, but oh well.
I had a good time climbing up to 200, but I was also kind of happy to be finished. Nice little distraction and some mild hype for Fallout 4.

The last four or five lunchboxes I've gotten from doing objectives have all had 500 caps as the best card. Really disappointing.
nothing pisses me off more in this game.. when the only reason to continue at the endgame is to try and collect everything

I had a raider attack tonight and there were four of them. I'm certain it's always been three in the past, did they change it?
Yeah I'm maxed out too, and I send vault dwellers to the wasteland to die just so I can make room, but then someone else gets pregnant. It's never ending lol
You have to buy him from the lunchbox shop, you can buy one or a bundle of them. One per floor apparently.
only worthwhile parts of the update are shading item rarity, performance fixes and the deathclaws
lol that explains why the help doesn't bother telling you where to get them
fuck off bethesda
if you really want my money, how about letting me get rid of the giant line of people outside the vault so I can actually open lunchboxes

build a radio station
eventually you'll have more than you want
you can also just farm babies though. you don't get special dwellers at your door, only from lunchboxes
Unlock and build the radio station
Ahhh, ok. Once women are pregnant, how do I get them to give birth? Just wait? Or build a medbay?
just wait and make sure you have enough living quarters
dont bother trying to breed them for stats or anything either. just churn out as many babies as you need

Managed to get this in a lunch box.
Having this baby along with Vengeance has turned raiders into the least threatening problem in the world.

wow, 5 seconds into a game and I already found a game breaking bug lol.
I zoomed into an elevator by accident during the tutorial, hit the X thinking it might zoom me back out, then it prompts me to destroy the elevator. So I continue on with the tutorial since I couldn't say no as the tutorial overlay covered the options.
The tutorial tells me to build something by hitting the top right icon, but it's overlapped with the previous X button and both don't work.

deathclaws will still wreck you... because they move between rooms/floors too quickly
I mean, they're not that hard but you can't just send 1 or 2 well-equipped dudes to the door like you can w/ raiders
and not that any of it matters since you quickly end up with so many caps that death is meaningless -- almost as meaningless as the 100cap rewards for getting 20 women pregnant

Thankfully I haven't run into any deathclaws yet, but I have a few dwellers than have decent weapons like sniper and plasma rifles. Do the deathclaws come in a pack of three like the raiders?
They can be found in a regular lunch box, too.
Thanks for the heads up. Short term, you can close the app and reopen.

Is it just me or is food extremely hard to keep earning? I keep upgrading the diners and building more (without sacrificing too much power) and I still have troubles running out of food.
build the higher level food plants instead of diners
Once I got nuka cola factories going, my food and water are pretty much maxed out 24/7. Power is always an issue though

That won't work early into the game though. You need like 70 dwellers before you start getting that stuff.

I got a Lv50 with Power Armor out of the Lunchbox, and handed her a Hardened Fat Man.
She can single handedly defend the vault, haven't put her against Deathclaws yet, since they haven't appeared. Each shot kills 1 Mole Rat, though.
Also bought a Mr. Handy. I feel every vault needs one.

Really hard to explore when raiders attack me so many times and I have only two weapons.
Such is RNG lunchbox.

Just started the game, somehow I was under the impression that when you send a dweller out to the wasteland that it became an watered down xcom/OG fallout styled tactical strategy game, slightly disappointing ;/
Would be a cool addition.

Then they would just be making Xcom.
This is just a simple resource management game.

A 5 pack of Mr. Handy and a 5 pack of Lunch boxes
I hope so. I'm always putting them where the Number above their Heads is at its highest

You use less resource when the game isn't active, right?
It seems like the game favours not actually playing all the time lol.
Make babies. Also, radio attracts people.

How on earth am I supposed to get more people to come to my shelter?
There is like 14 spots open in my shelter but nobody has lined up to join all day.

Yo fuck deathclaws. Sangreal was right, they completely wrecked my shit and went through two floors before I could take them down. By the end of it all I probably had half of my food left and had to rush all my diners and gardens.

Unlocking a radio station will add Dwellers at regular intervals. The more charisma Dwellers inside the radio station have, the faster new Dwellers will attract.
Another solid option is just the old-fashioned way: put a male and female Dweller together in a living quarters and wait for a few moments.

Do they attack like raiders?
I find that raiders are kinda weird and ignore the first floor sometimes, and they sometimes leave floors really quickly.
