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


Recommended Posts

wow, i ran all the way south, to the edge of the map, and found a mutated grizzly. Didnt get to fight him though, went to take a screenshot and hit the quickload key instead :( !!!! I found the best explosion point ever though. Its a look out at the far south point in the middle of the map. I launched a fatman missle into the middle and had about 15 cars explode at once with about 7 scavengers in the middle.

I heard the level cap is at 20 on this. I feel like im not that far into the store, and am already half way to the max. Hope the game keeps interesting without the little bonus of lvling and new perks.

Im also very pleased with how this game runs. The computer I use for gaming is ancient. built back in like 02. Athlon xp 2400, 2 gigs of 400mhz ddr1, and using a 7800gt agp nvidia card. This game looks great and is very very playable for the most part. I will dip to around 7 or 8 fps during really heavy fights , like when there is more than 20 people shooting each other, which is impressive. Even the huge explosion didnt lag anything up as bad as most games would cause. They did a great job on making this game run on older systems and still keeping it pretty.

Crap I didn't know there was a level cap!

Does anybody have any answers for my questions above?

i dont believe you can bind the weapons, but i havent really looked into it. I just run around with a pistol out and then when i see a group, decide what to use then.

On a side note, dont kill the doctors!!! I have become addicted to all the medicines in the game, and it told me to find a doctor to cure them. Too bad ive killed everyone basically I have met, and now cant cure my addictions. Ive been wandering all over the map trying to find a new doctor. Anyone know of a city or town that has one? lol.

ya, on this, anyone is fair game. i like it. I wanted to take the evilest path possible. Its very item rewarding, but now the game is extremely difficult when you cant find the people you need for certain things. Wish there was an option when talking to randoms for, where is the local doctor/store/whatever general needed place.

This game would translate much better into an MMO. I really hope that one is already in the works.

Yes but not by bethesda. Interplay owns the rights to the mmo as long as it is out by dec 31 2011 Im guess. Might be a different date in the year as that is all they have said. If its not out by then Bethesda gets the mmo rights. Though atm they are already underway on ES:5.

when you get to the brotherhood of steal catherdral alter in the game you can ask to get trained.

Well I got to the catherdral and they won't let me in. So I have to seek someone out on my own or will that happen during the main story? I don't need to know where it is if its a side quest, just need to know if I need to spend some extra time looking for it.

Guys can you do anything with the scrap metal? I swore somebody told me I could but I can't remember who.

Speak to the old black dude who hangs out at the Water Processing Plant - he'll tell you about water leaks etc. When that quest is added, just go around Megaton finding the three leaking pipes and fix them (just use the action button on them) then when you speak to him again he will start paying 10 caps per scrap metal - that's 20x as much as you'd get from traders etc

there is a part later in the main story where you have someone with you who can get you in.

I knew it! Thanks

The game has crashed on me twice now. Is this happening to anyone else? I'm playing the Steam version of the game on PC.

I have had a couple of crashes but most of them seem to happen when I am loading a file initially. Only one crash in game so far.

ive had only 1 crash so far, after saving the people from from bigtown that were in german town. When i quick traveled back to bigtown, the screen went all black, but I could see my pip boy text. Kept happening unless when i quick traveled there, i had to duck and look at the ground instantly, and it fixed it lol.

Where is the brotherhood alter? I have soo many different locations on my map already, like 30. Just been running around aimlessly for a good couple of hours, finding locations for quick travel later.

Oh ya, finally got a doctor! only took about 5 hours of extra play, but rescured one from german town. Sucked though, because when i got her back to bigtown, i killed her with a mininuke protecting them from super mutants, so I had to load back to an earlier save and redue it all. For now, she is the only doctor left in my world, and I cant help but keep getting addicted to pyscho and medx lol.

Has anyone reach Tenpenny Tower and killed everyone in there yet? I have my own penthouse there, but have been thinking I could just wipe them all out and keep the tower for myself. If you have done it, how easy was the take over?

I beat it already ll I have a horrible habit if flying through the main quest when I first play games like this because I get into the story.

I normally do that, but this time around I made sure I told myself to do everything else first.

I don't think you've played the originals tbh.

Those were the real gems.

I'm about to get this game, but I'm having second thoughts.

I enjoyed Morrowind, played it for 2 years. Got tired of it. Can't bear to look at it, as great as it was.

Oblivion was a bit of a letdown. Nowhere near Morrowind's unique charm. But the AI was better. Voice acting sucked, though. Maybe I've played Bethesda's games a bit too much.

I miss the old Fallout series. Still have them, though.

I'm a fallout fanatic. I've been playing the 2nd one still until this finally came out. This was not a let down at all. Still hard, still fun, still original. The world is just amazingly huge, and your actions do affect a lot. I just found out theres a bounty for my head and now everyone is hunting for me. Making it very hard to find Rivet City. Maybe i'm just missng the easy path, but its taking forever, and a city full of super mutants makes holding onto ammo and meds impossible.

I need some help.

down my own stupidity I decided to speed things up by cheating. At first I only added extra caps to buy meds but after a while I boosted my skills up. I ended up having all skills on 100 even thought I was level 4. The problem is, when I level up it asks me to use up points but I have maxed out. So I'm stuck on the screen. My second option was to level up my char to 30 but again that backfired as the game doesnt like it when you cheat, it crashes alot. But it ran ok, but then I made another mistake. Decided to spawn all the top weapons. Problem is now my only savegame wont even load without crashing to desktop.

So heres my question, can anyone upload their savegame up to the point where you have to head over to Rivet city, after you fix the radio station signal?

I would really appreciate this, since the thought of doing it all again does no appeal to me.

I am aware that cheaters never prosper. So this time around there wont be any cheating from me. Ironic thing is, just as I really started to enjoy the game by not cheating, the previous cheats I did corrupted my savegame.

    • Last week I was investigating an issue with contacts and tried using the new Outlook. In the real (Classic) Outlook, you can easily go to any Outlook folder and present it in a Table View, then customize the columns to show/sort any field, which was exactly what I needed. But of course, the new Outlook doesn't have this feature at all. I gave up. Oh, and can we possibly stop claiming the new Outlook has PST support? What it really has is the ability to use the real Outlook in the background to pretend to have PST support. There is no PST support without the real Outlook installed.
    • Honestly just before Panos left it started to feel like MS just wasnt interested in them so they were being less innovative with them, and then when he DID leave for Amazon its kind of clear the direction is gone. It felt like Panos had both goals and drive, and a vision, but it felt like no matter what his title/department was the Surface devices never had the full interest of the rest of management and he was just pushing a bolder up a hill that MS was adding dirt to as he went.
    • A roguelike and a 4X strategy game are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The final leg of the Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways promotion just landed, and it brought along two more games to keep. Last week's Lonestar and Calico giveaways have now been replaced with copies of Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest to claim for PC gamers. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. Diving into the games, Songs of Conquest is developed by Lavapotion. This is a turn-based 4X strategy experience that has players making tough decisions and participating in tactical combat while also managing their kingdom. "Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. Lead powerful magicians called Wielders and venture to lands unknown," explains the developer. "Wage battles against armies that dare oppose you, hunt for powerful artifacts and expand your territory. The world is ripe for the taking – seize it." Meanwhile, Rogue Waters comes from developer Ice Code Games. This rogue-lite experience has you taking the role of Captain Cutter as he commands his ship and crew through procedurally generated encounters. You'll be recruiting and training crew, use sea creatures, and battle with other ships and pirates. "Set sail as Captain Cutter, a pirate caught in a deadly struggle for power and vengeance," adds the developer. "Navigate dangerous waters, unleash mythical sea creatures, and outwit enemies as you chase legendary treasure and confront dark secrets." The newly available Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day, which is slated to be Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook by Usama Jawad As many of you may know, Microsoft has been trying to get customers to ditch Classic Outlook in favor of New Outlook for quite some time now. To that end, it has added numerous capabilities to the latter, including PST features, and it is working on several more, such as a unified inbox. However, customer response has been a bit lukewarm so far, with many considering the New Outlook to be "hot garbage". Now, Microsoft has highlighted 15 features that users can leverage in New Outlook in yet another attempt to get customers to migrate. Although not all of the 15 capabilities are exclusive to New Outlook, in fact, most of them are available in Classic Outlook as well. But Microsoft hopes that this combination of familiar and fresh features will be able to attract existing users as well as new ones. For ease of readability, we have summarized the 15 features below: Pin an email: This makes it easier to track important emails Snooze an email: You can temporarily snooze an email thread for a specific time frame until it becomes relevant again. This can be very useful in scenarios where you don't feel like actively following a thread or simply want to follow up on a later date Add multiple categories at the same time: You can assign multiple categories to an email through a single, simplified interface Sweep: As the name implies, you can define automated move processes on your inbox to declutter it, rather than cleaning it up manually Schedule send: Does exactly what it says on the tin, and can be useful when accommodating recipients in different timezones Simplified folder sharing: The sharing process has been simplified so permissions are automatically applied on parent folders Follow a meeting: This is an RSVP option that lets people know that you won't be able to join the meeting but would still like to access a recap Save calendar views: You can save different views for the calendar based on different workflows Improved meeting tracking: Organizers have more controls in viewing meeting responses, such as the ability to sort and download them. Typically useful when there is a large audience Meeting recap: The Outlook Calendar surfaces a meeting recap with recordings, transcripts, and shared files Filtered views: Allows you to declutter your Calendar so that it's easier to scan and schedule Change a recurring event: Users can modify future events of a series of meetings while preserving the configuration of previous ones Rename your email account: This labeling makes it easier to identify multiple accounts in Outlook Modern themes: Exactly what the name says, plus Dark Mode Keyboard shortcuts: This facilitates flexible user behavior as customers can choose between Outlook for Windows shortcuts, Outlook for the web, or turn them off completely There you have it. It's a decent list, but it remains to be seen if it will move the needle in a meaningful way for users who are attached to Classic Outlook. Again, a lot of the aforementioned features are already available in Outlook Classic, but for some, native functionality is not present, and people typically resort to workarounds. Microsoft will be hoping that it's primarily those capabilities that get people to finally switch.
