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


Recommended Posts

Ok I understand. I've played the game for around 36hrs but it's funny that there are a couple things I didn't get, but I felt the game had a bit of a learning curve because there isn't really any in game tutorial going on. I went into that game completely uneducated which I like doing because it makes the experience more genuine, but sometimes it takes longer to get it down. I didn't use AP for like 5 or 6 hours into the game, I don't ever recall them telling you about it at all.

I hear you. I felt the same way when I first played Oblivion. A friend of mine wanted to try the game which I thought would be great but it seems that the learning curve left him hit or miss in some areas of the game so far.

I thought it was too short! I did all of the side quests, and it still didn't last half as long as Oblivion. Maybe that is not a fair comparison, but since it is Oblivion with a Fallout 3 skin, comparisons are going to be made.

And the closed ending, where you can't go back and explore, really sucks. I'm one of those people who can't play a game again after I have beat it.

It's was a great game, don't get me wrong. I just wish the game had more to it. At least it proved that people will actually buy pc games instead of stealing them for a change.

How many hours have people logged before finishing it?

I'm about 42hrs into it myself right now, still got a lot of side quests to do. :)

Pretty much the same, maybe few hours more. And I'm half way through main quests, and have some side quests left as well.

Plenty of locations to visit still though :p

Oh cool, pretty much the same as me, I've completed around 15 quests I think, but there's still plenty more to do.

Question for anyone:

How do I get power armor training??

I'm lvl 12 right now.

You need to find the brotherhood of Steel home.

Finished the game at about 30 hours at level 17. Not sure how much longer it'll last, but I think I'll go back and do some more side quests and exploring.

Keep going with the main story quests

managed to get done everything i set out to do in the game, so now i declare it finished for me. overall a great time, a few design issues i'd like a word with Bethesda over, but no biggie ;)

Fawkes is one of the bestest NPC's ever, i love the guy, and he proved very effective. after we finished the last quest i decided to undertake, i escorted him to the museum where apparently he wants to study, took one more look at the Wash Mem, Capitol, Linc Mem etc, saved and that was it. Actually quite touching, but i may just be getting overly sentimental in my older years.

just set goals for yourself - otherwise there's too much to do in this one, and much of it is pretty repetitive or samey. you'll know when you had enough. for me the achievements are great mostly because they structure the game better and help you set those goals, so you can feel you got your fill of the game.

Yea to find the brotherhood of Steel, you need to complete one of the main quests. The one dealing with the radio station.

Hmm, I've already done that quest like 20hrs ago, where is the brotherhood of steel home/base?

the main quest should take you there its after the jefferson memorial quest. the waters of life i think its called.

Oh ok, I've been doing lots of side quests lately, I do have the waters of life, I'll complete that next. Where exactly do I get the training though, or does it just come up in the story?

Just keep going.

Eventually, while you're on some errands in the Jefferson Memorial, the Enclave will arrive. You will then have to lead some scientists to escape, and you'll take a tunnel that leads you directly to the BoS Citadel, where you can get training for Power Armor.

Well I got power armor training finally, I notice you run a bit slower with that kind of armor on, which makes sense. I picked up some Tesla Armor which has energy weapons +10, making my energy weapons skill at 95 now when I use mentats :D

Good thing I have a laboratory at my house, I get addicted to something like every time I play the game haha

One complaint I have with Fallout 3, I don't know if anyone else feels this way, but I think your armor and weapons conditions go down way too fast. I take it there's no way to stop that other than not to get damaged? lol

My repair skill is only about 50 right now, I definitely got to upgrade that more next time I level.

I kind of forgot to add more points to repair, I think it's extremely important.

Same here, I think my repair is in the 40's too.

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough" by Usama Jawad We have seen Microsoft resort to questionable tactics in the past to get more customers to use Edge, such as "bribing" people to use Edge, testing new behavior so that Edge loads automatically on startup every time, and pressuring OEMs to exclusively bundle Edge in Windows PCs. However, the company often receives pushback not only from customers but also from the Browser Choice Alliance (BCA). Now, the collective has penned an open letter to the Redmond tech firm to highlight its dissatisfaction with its practices. For those unaware, BCA is a coalition that touts several browser vendors as its members, including Google Chrome, Midori, Opera, Vivaldi, BrowserWorks, and Wavebox. Its latest open letter to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella emphasizes that "enough is enough" and that user choice on Windows should be respected. It claimed that the company is abusing its dominant position in the PC space to push customers to its first-party browser, even if they don't want to use it. To do this, it resorts to shady tactics, some of which we highlighted at the start of this piece. It says that Microsoft is making it very difficult for users to set their preferred browser across all touchpoints. This is problematic as PCs are becoming even more prevalent in the AI era, so user choice is being restricted across even more devices, further frustrating users (and competing browser vendors). As such, BCA has urged Microsoft to take the following actions to level the playing field: Allow browser suppliers to compete for preinstallation and default deals with Windows PC manufacturers End dark patterns targeted at users seeking to download and effectively use other browsers (including as system-level default) Bring back the ability for users to make switching default browsers simple and transparent with a “single click” change for all relevant file types and apps (including PDFs) Open all web links in the users’ selected system-level browser of choice Eliminate manipulative Microsoft-exclusive banners pushing Edge in Windows, including when users are searching for other browsers Stop using operating system updates to push users back to Edge Remove the restrictive configurations of existing S mode devices that block the usage of third-party browsers. It believes that all browsers should compete on merit, as this will drive innovation and healthy competition. Despite its strong wording and publication of the letter openly, it's unclear if Microsoft will pay any heed to the BCA and if this will result in any tangible downstream benefits. We'll likely find out in due time.
