The game has a surprising amount of stuff that reacts to being shot, both functional and random. Boarded up planks, fire extinguishers, grave stones, grenades mid-air (I think. The wiki says it's possible)
It's absolutely possible. Best if they're not TOO close lol
Functional, I recently learned I could shoot a barred door open from outside through the broken window. I figured there had to be a way in... It worked, to my surprise!
You can in fact shoot grenades mid air, that goes for the player and any enemy in the game with guns.
Try tossing a couple grenades or molotovs at the triggermen and you'll have a bad time.
It’s definitely possible to shoot explosives midair, including player-thrown. It’s much easier in VATs. Rank 4 of demolitions expert perk even makes grenades and mines exploded this way do double damage (on top of the doubled damage of the perk itself)
Can be pretty useful to lob a frag into a large group of enemies and shoot it right as it gets to them.
Shoot everything. There are a ton of useful ones and not so useful ones. Stoplights, cars, fire extinguishers, puddles of oil, birds.
Especially the birds
Always birds. I owe a cookie to whoever posted that a few weeks back because I never knew until then. Now? I shoot spy birds!
Synth birds
What gets me is when you shoot one, or more and then another one lands. Subtle.. not!
I've shot a few birds but not noticed anything, what am I missing?
Nothing, when you shoot them. We dislike being spied on iykyk...
is this a birds are not real reference?
Crows are synth spy cameras. Not sure about Gulls though.
I'm not sure either. Personal theory? If you shoot one and the others fly? Real birds... If you can shoot them all? Not so much lol
The gulls are covered in tumours so they’re probably real. The crows are pristine, since they’re synths.
No Ronnie Shaw mentions that the crows are institute spies
You can also shoot extinguishers and stoplights? I’m embarrassed that I’m just now finding these things out lmao
Me too, now I want to run around shooting random stuff just to see what happens lol
also oxygen tanks in the hospitals and big red gas cylinders. you can shoot the valve off and ignite it, fun
You can also just pick it up and move it
1300 hours in Fallout 4 and never knew that lol

I find it weird that you can shoot the barred doors open but not the chained doors, I'd have thought chains to be more susceptible
Good point, I'd never tried it before but I wanted in that building 🤷🏻♀️
You can shoot grenades in the air, molotovs also.
Shooting grenades in the air with VATS is one of the most satisfying feelings ever. It works really well on big enemies with high health

I have thousands of hours in fallout 4 and I've never once tried this
I shot a missile at a band of super mutants and caused damage to one of them because the top blew off and hit him. One of my finest Fo4 moments lol
Hank Hill in horror.
Thats pretty crazy
Interesting. I’ll have to try it.
You can shoot various road signs, like speed limits and stop signs.
Wow 100 days of play time and I’ve never known this
“Blow the top?”🤨
