Surviving the Wasteland has never been an easy task, and it doesn’t get any easier inFallout 4. Therefore, throughout the journey, Sole Survivors must look forvarious weapons, be they firearms or melee. However, running around with a weapon may not always be necessary or particularly appropriate in the environment you’re in, particularly if you’re in a friendly settlement. Therefore, in this guide, we will tell youhow to put a gun away inFallout 4.
In almost all of its titles, Bethesda adds the ability to holster weapons. Sometimes, this is necessary so as not to make other NPCs hostile. This isn’t the case inFallout 4, but players may still like to put their gun away, as it can look out of place in some in-game scenarios.
How to Holster Your Weapon in Fallout 4
The first thing players might think of when removing guns inFallout 4is switching to fists. Of course, this is a good solution, but not exactly what you probably wanted. Fortunately, the developers have added a special option for this. So,to holster your weapon inFallout 4, you need to hold down the weapon reload button.
By default, the reload button for PC players is R. However, if you are playing on a console, then you just need to hold down the squarefor PlayStation players, and X for Xbox players.
This way, you no longer have to take out and put weapons back into your inventory between combat encounters. Unfortunately, this does not have the same impact on the world ofFallout 4as in other titles from the developers. More precisely, even if you have a weapon in your hands throughout the entire game,other NPCswill not react to this in any way or attack you.
However, if players are wanting to add NPC hostility for drawn weapons, there are ways of doing so, namely thePoint That Somewhere ElseMod. It changes the behavior of all NPCs inFallout 4so that they no longer like having guns pointed at them. As a result, some characters may simply flee from you, while others will start attacking you, depending on your stats, especially Luck. Therefore,if you use this Mod, then holster your weapon more often so as not to cause unnecessary conflicts, especially when you visit bunkers.
