    Here's a little idea for a small mod, or a small part of a bigger mod, I thought of on interstate the other day.

    According to the game, Cannibalism is a compulsion, right? Well, let's make it that way - if the player picks cannibal as a perk, every few days they have to kill and eat another human being, or suffer withdrawal and stat degradation, just like being addicted to drugs. You could even make the player lose control and attack the nearest person with a little bit of work. The only way around this would be to get the hematophage perk, and use blood packs. Not a big change to the game, but it could make certain missions like the taft tunnels interesting.

    Food is way to damn common for that to do anything other than make people eat some food every X amount of time.

    Did anybody else find it odd that you never come across any still cared for farms?

    That was odd. There are a handful of brahmin farms (outside Arefu, outside Canterbury Commons, one controlled by raiders) and, of course, the Anchorage War Memorial, but it seems like most of the wasteland is still living off leftover food, which is odd. Or mutated wildlife, I guess. Or people.

    Then again, the only place you see plants growing, other than that weird glowing fungus, is in Oasis, so maybe the Capital Wasteland is appropriately named.

    Ghoul meat needs to be lousy with rads. Like, 50-100.

    Couldn't you just carry around some "strange meat" to sate your hunger? Maybe some sort of quest you can do for

    Are there even vegetables in the game? I cannot recall, but I think I've only picked up meat kinds of food. Maybe when governments fall people realise they don't have to eat their stupid vegetables anymore?

    Go east of Springvale School, to the river. Look for a beached tugboat.

    In the tugboat, in a container with an Average lock, there is a Power Fist.
    Why the would he do that when he can go to the power station and get Fisto!

    It's the radiation I think. Vegetation was pretty much wiped out.

    How animals like Brahmin subsisted though given that fact, I'm not sure.

    They eat grass.

    Everyone knows that grass is immune to the effects of radiation.

    Word.


    I hear that there's some sort of "...of the Wasteland" (Yeah, not quite sure of the whole name) armor that's also really good. However, I have no clue as to where to begin to get it. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

    There's the Wasteland Legend armor. It looks kind of cool but it certainly doesn't have a good DR stat.

    That's probably the one I'm talking about. I remember seeing a pic of it and also thinking it looked neato. Thought the lack of DR doesn't make it so appealing anymore.

    Where is it at anyway?

    5) Quickload, repeat.

    I'm curious as to whether or not you go higher if you use the MIRV.

    Plant a bunch of bottlecap mines around the car too

    Update: I did this again with a bunch of bottlecap mines and frag mines piled on top of the car.

    Result: When the death scene timed out, I was still going up.

    I have to figure out a way to get Charon on top of the car somehow, so I can watch it from a safe distance away.

    You can actually find fresh vegetables in Dr. Li's lab in Rivet City. From asking around, apparently there's a hydroponic bay there.

    There's a mod on the Nexus to increase the death scene time. I believe it was made so you could nuke-jump from Tenpenny Tower and see where you landed.

    You might be able to find a car near some kind of overhang or bump in the ground and push Charon onto it.

    It just occurred to me that Fallout 3 really did raise the bar, allowing you to be a highly educated drug addicted corpse mutilating mutant cannibal slaver as opposed to merely being a tribal drug addicted child killing mutant cyborg slaver.

    Although, the lack of a Brahmin companion is a black mark on the whole deal.
