Fallout3 is still extremely fun to play. Finished the Pitt (finding the damn 100 ingots was a pain in the royal arse), half way through Anchorage, and next is Broken Steel. Can't wait to play the next DLCs! Have yet to play it on Win 7 RC tho.

Should I finish the main quest line before I download Broken Steel? So I can get the most out of the game playing both original and DLC ending?

Don't play the final quest "Take it Back" unless you download Broken Steel. This is because the DLC modifies the game files to change the game's ending and also replaces .bik video files. There might be a possibility that your save game might get corrupted if you download the DLC after completing the game.

Okay, just cos I'm not finished the main storyline yet, have gone off it and not gotten back in. So I won't be purchasing the BS DLC for a while.

Which is the quest before Take it Back, just so I don't start the quest without knowing it!

Ack, I've just let Roy Phillips and his bunch of bunch of ghouls into Tenpenny Tower - however, I had saved a load of stuff in my room. I take it theres no way I can get back in there, without going back a save is there? I've killed all the ghouls I can find in Tenpenny Tower - but it's still not letting me in.

I want my Precision Gattling Laser back :(

Why don't you use the Vengeance from the Deathclaw Sanctuary? It has a damage of 176 as compared to the Precision's 132 provided you have Energy Weapons skill maxed out. The best Gatling Laser in the entire game undoubtedly is the Vengeance.

Yeah you can access them any time, except for the Broken Steel one, which is a direct continuation of the end of the game, so for that you need to complete game at least. But for all the others you just get a new radio station that gives you directions to the new areas/quests.

If I get one of these expansions, can I access them anytime or do I have to start a new character?

the pit and operation anchorage can be done at any time if you havent completed the game ( just go back to an earlier save if you have completed it) , broken steele happens is only avaible after you complete the game

I've never even heard of that to be honest.

I'm not going to bother trying to get it though, as I'm sick of finding Deathclaws everywhere and using all my ammo on them. Only for them to have a crippled leg and leave me dead. Again.

Unless they're Enclave Deathclaws, however..

Explore my friend.Do it as much as you can in this game. With Fawkes, I don't see any difficulty in encountering Deathclaws. If you are annoyed by Deathclaws, what about the Albino Radscorpions introduced in Broken Steel which are thrice as powerful as normal Deathclaws? The Vengeance is the most powerful Energy Weapon in the game and with so abundant EC Pack in the game, you will rarely run out of ammo.Also don't forget to collect the Endurance Bobblehead in the Deathclaw Sanctuary.

Happy hunting in Fallout 3 brother :) .

      Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • Until Dawn 2 revealed featuring new cast, new story, and new developer

      All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.

      New dev usually means more trash. I also despise that they censored the 1 remake.
