Are there prebuilt settlements yet

[Plapete]

Good afternoon,

Wondering if the prebuilt settlements are back in SS2 yet? I know its coming but dont want to start another playthrough until thats back in. It makes my playthrough discovery bug sing. Thanks in advance.

They are called city plans and they are all over the place/ Be careful if using the RotC ones they have issues.

Unless you mean the Conqueror style settlements with prebuilt city plans, which will be along sooner or later (with Conqueror 2 the latest I imagine). So no, not back yet for that one.

Yeah, "settlements already built up before you even leave 111" was technically part of Conqueror in SS1, I'd imagine it'll come back when that does get ported to SS2.
I do have some questions about how that'll work with regards to Jake's Storyline (by which I mean how at the start of his story, Jake hasn't even heard of 'the other four plot types', but every City Plan I've ever seen includes them, so it'd make no sense), but I'm sure the team will think of something there.

I like to imagine a RobCo store that had loads of sensors in a deep basement inventory and everyone ran down there when the bombs fell, surviving for generations thanks to the ASAMs. A RobCo vault 81, if you will.
Or hey, maybe the Gunners in Quincy gets their hands on some and rebuild. And then, after taking over Quincy, it becomes a settlement of sorts that we can't alter but have loads of settlers to interact with, kinda like Diamond City and Goodneighbor.
I know it ain't really a settlement that is there at the start, but it'll be fully built and not owned by, or familiar to, the player.
But something more likely to happen would be the ability to start city plans remotely through the Comm hub. Would definitely be appreciated by survival players who would prefer not to travel all the way just to get a city plan going on all of the settlements. So, a single command, out and about for a while, arrive to find it already at level 3 and ready to be explored in its prime. Would be pretty cool.

So I looked again and I see that CH 3 is in the final stages before release. Any word on the prebuilt settlements? In old SS1 conquerer, you could explore and find settlements that had some things built up that were not in the vanilla game. Added alot of exploration/discovery fun. Any word?

There is no official word whether prebuilt settlements will be available on Chapter 3 release.

Now that it has been a couple of months, I wonder if they have an ETA on this. I'm waiting to start a new playthrough for this feature.

Sorry, no ETA. The 3.0.0 Release has only been out a month.
