[Official] Fallout 3 - DLC for 360/PC released!


Recommended Posts

The fireants plotline seems pretty unbalanced, I'm wasting massive amounts of ammo for little return.. even with my most powerful assault rifle the ants take 5-6 headshots to die.

Edit: The heads falling off is so poorly done that I'm surprised anyone finds it cool.. I mean, I just shot a guy into his leg and his head falls of like it's been severed by a surgical instrument? WTF?

For PS3 Users:

Does your game freeze when "xxx is online" notifications appear?

Use shotgun instead - you can get one from raider in Super Duper Mart. Grenades are quite effective also

I like the V.A.T.S effect though (regardless of anatomical accuracy of body parts coming loose :p) especially when you see the bullet whizzing through the air in slo-mo.

did not get a shotgun .... :( WTF i want my SHOTGUN !

Nah, mirelurks are only tough if you don't know where to hit 'em ;)

You get them from the guys who turn up after you've raided the pharmacy at the rear of the Mart.

I know where to hit them, but they're still annoying, face :p

I didn't like the game, ugly hud, annoying characters, boring beginning bit which you can't skip, annoying enemies. graphical glitches, fps stutters, awful combat system, horrible controls. etc etc

Having much more fun with FC2 & QoS.

Yeah me either, I got it in the sewers.

Finally getting some better weapons :)

I've got a question for anyone who knows.. In the beginning of the game you can upgrade your strength, agility, luck etc but I'm lvl 5 or 6 right now and I've never been given an option to futher upgrade those. Is that set for the rest of the game? Or do you have to be a certain lvl to upgrade them again? Or am I missing the boat completely? :| Thanks

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
