Fallout 4 long road mcready

The Underground is one of the four main factions of the game Fallout 4. It is quite difficult to find, but it is definitely worth searching. After all, here you will make not only new friends, but also unique weapons in Fallout 4. “Road to Freedom” is a small quest that will lead you to this faction. Of course, the path will be thorny and confusing, but thanks to the walkthrough presented in this review, you will easily get through it from beginning to end.

Where can I get the task?

The Institute has gained notoriety and has acquired many opponents, but the main one is a secret faction - the Underground. If you want to confront the Institute with her, then you should definitely find the Fallout 4 quest “Road to Freedom.” You can take it by talking with Dr. Amari while completing the main quest “Molecular Level”. You can also open the Road to Freedom by listening to rumors at the Diamond City Market, or by talking to the regulars of the Bench bar. In any case, sooner or later this quest will become available when completing a story or additional task in the game Fallout 4.

"Road to Freedom": walkthrough

To follow the freedom path, you need to get to Boston Common. Now find a robot tour guide in the area, he will tell you the starting point of the trail, which will take you to all the main attractions of Fallout 4.

The road to freedom is a red brick trail. Following this path will take you to the Massachusetts headquarters. The main thing is not to go astray, because it often gets lost under rubble and debris. If you lose track, stop and look around. Sooner or later you will find the right direction. If you follow the right path, your second destination will be Granary Bearing Ground - an ancient Boston cemetery, one of the most impressive landmarks in Fallout 4.

The road to freedom is difficult and dangerous

Be extremely careful: there are several ghouls wandering among the dilapidated graves. After searching the area, you can find a corpse, and next to it - a bag with weapons and ammunition. To continue your journey, find the old bus, a new trail begins from it. The next landmark you will encounter along the way is the Old Corner Bookstore building. Inside you can find a small cache with lids and a couple of first aid kits. Next stop is the Old Capitol. Friendly ghouls have settled in the old building, led by their mayor, Hancock, who can become your partner. The player can also take on a couple of additional quests.

Be extremely careful as you approach your next destination, Fanell Hall. Both inside and outside the building is infested with aggressive super mutants. After the battle, go to Paul Revere's house, there will also be a shootout here.

Final destination

As you approach the finale of the journey, the Old Northern Church, get ready: a hot battle with representatives of the local fauna awaits you. Having won, go inside, but do not relax. The church has become the new home for the ghouls, and they will fiercely defend their territory. After killing your opponents, go to the doors opposite the entrance. Behind them there will be catacombs that you need to go through. To avoid getting lost, use your pip-boy.

The final destination will be a metal disk with the inscription “Ring of the Freedom Trail”. You need to use it to enter a password - the word RAILROAD. This is quite easy to do: rotate the ring in different directions, and when you get to the desired letter, press the central button. After entering the password, the door will open leading to the underground shelter. Inside you will be met by a squad led by Desdemona. And you have to undergo a short interrogation, because the Underground is very suspicious of strangers. If you answer all the questions correctly, you will be able to enter the shelter at any time. This completes the “Road to Freedom” quest. Fallout 4 continues, and many more adventures await you!

After serving you a little, Robert will want to open up and talk about that strange conversation with two men that immediately aroused unpleasant emotions in you. They, oddly enough, will turn out to be mercenaries from the “Third Rail” with the names Winlock and Barnes already known to us. McCready confesses why they cause him so much trouble and trouble at every turn. Your task is to listen to your new friend and agree to help him in a very important matter, exterminating pests.

To do this, you need to go to the Mass Pike station according to the coordinates that the sniper will give you. The required outpost of the Strelkov is located on the overpass. Tired? We advise you to take a fresh look at Counter strike 1.6 (cs 1.6) here, it is one of the top multiplayer games today, the enormous popularity of which has remained for years. And in this place, you need to keep your eyes open and know that three mercenaries are waiting under the overpass, with whom you should deal quickly and go upstairs. There you will be greeted by two turrets, an assault gun and ten Shooters, the same fate awaits them. And, most importantly, at the end of the room you can see a pleasant surprise in the form of almost a full complement with a nuclear unit to boot.

After taking care of the destruction of Winlock and Barnes, you should talk to McCready and confess everything. He will become so kind that he will immediately return to you all the money that was paid to him for his service and, in the future, will be near you, like a faithful dog, for free. With such actions the first part of his personal quest will end.

As you continue to travel together, you will learn a lot of interesting and heartbreaking things from the life of a mercenary and learn to live like him: rob, scare, pick locks, and so on. Also get ready to hear the story about his dead wife and terminally ill son, whom he loves more than life itself, but does not know how to save, because the same symptoms were observed in his late friend McCready, he visited Med-Tech Research, where you should too keep the way.

McCready is a mercenary and a good sniper who can become your companion in Fallout 4 and provide cover with his sniper rifle.

Where to find McCready

It is located in the city of Good Neighborhood. You can get there at any time in the game, even at the very beginning. You need to find the “Third Rail” bar, which is located in the premises of a destroyed metro station and is located at the end of the building, which you will see on the left when entering the Good Neighborhood territory.

Inside the establishment, go down to the platform and go straight to the VIP room. There you will see McCready talking with two Gunslinger mercenaries: Winlock and Barnes threaten him, but Robert openly sends them away. If you listen to the conversation, you can find out that McCready himself was a Shooter, but decided to leave and work for himself.

If you bring Robert to any shelter, he will say that he lived near the shelter as a child. It’s not surprising, since we could meet him in Fallout 3: he lived in the children’s town of Little Lamplight next to him and was their mayor. Upon reaching the age of 16, he left the city and reached the Commonwealth with a caravan. Here he joined the Strelki, which he greatly regrets.

How to recruit

McCready is a mercenary, so you will have to pay to hire him. He will ask for 250 caps, but if you have pumped up charisma, you can bargain with him for 200. After that, he will become your ally.

Abilities and skill

Robert is a marksman and is armed with a sniper rifle with infinite ammo. He is also good with other weapons, and also excels in close combat. Keep this in mind in case his starting equipment doesn't suit you. He will also periodically give you ammo, just like he gives you medicine.

MacReady is distinguished by its perk, which it gives to the hero of the game when traveling together and achieving maximum relationship status, which is possible only after completing the quest “The Long Road”. The capabilities of this perk significantly exceed the perks of other companions.

Robert's perk is called "Deadly Shot" - it increases the damage dealt by headshots by 20%, since McCready himself is a sniper.

Although 20% is a good indicator, in reality this increase due to a bug is 95%. In this case, it doesn’t matter at all from what distance you shoot or whether the target is covered by obstacles or not. Even when all other parts of the body in VATS show a zero chance of hitting, for the head it is still the same 95%.

Developers from Bethesda studio can fix this bug in the next patches, but for now it works.

How to raise the level of relationships

Unlike most other companions, McCready likes to create problems rather than solve them. He enjoys stealing, intimidating people for extortion and other bad deeds. If you manage to please him, the reward for this will be receiving a personal quest.

You can deal with McCready by reaching the maximum sympathy level and completing his quest “The Long Road”.

When you reach maximum relationship, you will receive a wooden soldier as a gift, which was given to him by his wife Lucy. She never found out that he was a mercenary, he thought he was just a soldier, and she died in front of McCready - she was torn apart by ghouls.

Quest “Long Road”

After traveling with you for a short time, McCready will want to talk and tell you why those two mercenaries from the Third Rail - Winlock and Barnes - are causing problems. Listen to the mercenary and agree to help him when he offers to kill them.

Follow the sniper's coordinates to the Mass Pike station, a Riflemen outpost located on the overpass.

There are only three mercenaries under the overpass: deal with them and go upstairs, where two turrets, an assault gun and a dozen Shooters will be waiting for you. At the end is an almost complete T-60 with a nuclear unit.

If you hired McCready from Goodnaigbor (VIP number in the Third Rail), you will be able to complete the companion quest after some time. Explore the Commonwealth with him, talk with McCready about various topics and, ultimately, he will ask you to accompany him to the Mass Pike. He wants to hunt down and kill the two gunmen who threatened him earlier in Gudnaigbor. No problem! Follow the Mass Pike and find the elevator north of the map marker. Go through the shooter camp, killing everyone who gets in your way.

Explore the Commonwealth

Once you have done this, continue to explore the Commonwealth with McCready and make only those decisions that the character approves of. Continue these actions until he is ready to communicate with you again. He will tell you about his son. McCready's son is unwell, and the medicine that can save him can be found at a place called Med-Tek Research. Unfortunately, this place is infested with ghouls, so keep a weapon ready that deals maximum damage to these enemies.

Enter the factory and clear the place of enemies. You can turn off the alarm using the paper that McCready gives you. Apply it to the terminal located on the top floor. Access the terminal and open it to reach an elevator that will send you deeper into the facility.

Kill all the feral ghouls and find the Med-Tek lab to open the door. Take the bottle from your workplace. Now head back to Goodnaigbore and visit Daisy's Bargains. Now you can continue to improve your relationship with McCready to eventually get his special perk.
