Fuck you Roy you fucking asshole, I get you into the tower and you fucking kill everyone, including Daring. Eat shotgun you shithead.
Fuck you in the fucking ass, i had to spend an hour just loading my saves so i could convince the bigots to get the fuck out, but noooo you had to prove them right and make me look like an ass. all thos people died because of me and the real kicker is that i get bad karma points for exploding all of their heads.
My Repair, Sm. Guns and...I don't recall the last one, I think Lockpick
anyways, he's coming along very nicely
I have three main guns: the Hunting Rifle for mid-to-long-range fighting, a Chinese Assault Rifle for when I need to do heavy damage and a Combat Shotgun for when I feel like ruining some shit up close
I also have my trusty ol' BB slugger that I've had since I was just a child
and now I use it to beat people to death
but seriously, Lockpick is probably the most useful skill in the game, all-around.
God damn that was one of the most amazing sequences of any game. Easily the best scene I've ever seen in an RPG.
Just wait until you see Liberty Prime.
PROBABILITY OF RED CHINESE SUCCESS: ZERO
PSHKEW PSHKEW
BETTER RED... THAN DEAD!
I think you mean 'Better dead than red'.
Liberty Prime spoiler:
don't wanna blatantly tell people it's a giant robot, but can you get him online at all in the game?
close to end I think? spoiler:
The dialog with Eden where you convince him to blow himself up is so amazingly awesome. "You know because you know? That's circular logic."
I thought he was way too quick to change his mind.
The computer spent years formulating and executing his plan, and you come up and say "You shouldn't do that because you weren't elected".
And then he says "Ok", kills himself, and destroys the facility.
If he's nothing else, he's a patriotic AI. Having obsessively studied the past presidents and US history, his one weakpoint was the fact that he wasn't elected.
I hope there's a mod where you can leave him alive and then, after turning on the purifier, have an election.

But he already spoke about being elected on the radio throughout the game, so he obviously thought about it beforehand.

But he always knew, deep down, that he wasn't really elected. That was just propaganda, when confronted with it directly he couldn't keep rationalizing it.
I played almost 4 hours total today while listening to some 1up podcasts. I feel like I covered most of the DC area, plus I leveled up twice and got some kickass gear (minigun!).
But having said that, I cannot fucking figure out how to get to the museum of discovery. Please help.
How do I get the freaking house? I killed Burke after he took down Simms, am I screwed? I just need a place to offload my gear. Having Repair and no place to put duplicate items suuuucks
Who teaches you to use power armor and perhaps more importantly where are they?
I've got a nearly fully repaired suit of Brotherhood armor and am really itching to be able to try it on. I'm being told by the brothers in GNR it's in the citadel but I have no idea where that is. >_<

You don't get access to the Citadel until you progress a certain amount through the main quest.

Disarm the bomb. You don't even have to talk to Burke let alone turn him in (although I do since I'm not sure if he's still around after you disarm it and I love having the silenced 10mm that early). Now that Simms is dead you have to talk to his son after disarming the bomb iirc
I've put in 20+ hours and Fallout 3 still hasn't left my drive since launch day. And no end in sight.
You know one thing they vastly improved on versus the classic Fallout games? I go into a town and they have a very specific problem on their hands. Often a big green snarling one with a minigun. They don't have a laundry list of stupid shit like finding a locket somebody dropped in the sewer.
Also, took a break from DC to go back and do Big Town's quest. Man, just outside the police headquarters,
the logs of the medical response team made me shudder. Very, very somber reading indeed.

Ah.
Damnit.
Do I have to go much farther than-
Finding project purity and your fathers logs?
I think the not being able to wear power armor until you have training mechanic makes a lot of sense but I'll be damned if it isn't slightly annoying :P

Man, what the hell. I jump through hoops and walk to the end of the earth to find the special, single suit of T-51b power armor, and it sucks ass. I have no idea why they even bothered hiding it away behind a stasis field.
You know what? Fuck it. I'm starting over again. Luck, Intelligence and Agility all the way. Screw charisma and strength. I will use whatever I get my grubby scavenging, hacking, lockpicking hands on through my freakishly high skills.
This pistols only thing wasn't wokring out anyways. At level 12 I've basically had to give up on it due to lack of of a .44 (not that I have enough ammo to make one all that useful) and had been using my CAR pretty much exclusively (which I have a rediculous amount of ammo for which only seems to increase).
If I'm going to have to use rifles I may as well spec my character for it. Maybe I'll do my evil playthrough as pistols only once I have a the locations of some high end pistols memorized (or once someone mods in a Desert Eagle/.223)
I have to say the combat armor you can get for completing the "Riley's Rangers" quest is awesome. Fully repaired it has as much damage resistance as power armor, and has bonuses to AP and luck to boot, without lowering your agility.
Hmm, I wonder why, but anytime I use VAT with the 10mm, laser, Chinese, or the .32, if the enemy moves, it definitely misses, and often times when the guy is standing still only about 10 yards from me, it'll miss.
VATS is terrible if your skill is low. Well, it's good if you get really close, but at a distance you'd better have more than 50 in the relevant skill or you're better off not using it at all.
It's also not really useful with full-auto weapons like assault rifles and SMGs. They're more effective in real-time, save your AP for hunting rifles or shotguns.
I've been playing from scratch with pretty much JUST the rock-it launcher. reuse the same ammo over and over? Yes please.
Now I get encumbered from carrying too many plates and cups... but headshotting a supermutant with an ashtray is pure awesome.
If I were using Big Guns, I would exclusively use pencils for that.
I found a plasma rifle in an Outcast base but despite my successful sneaking, they end up universally hostile when I come back out. Is there any consequence from killing them other than losing their little salvage job?
As an aside, they really did drop the ball on the amount of sex that should have been included. I can think of at least three occasions that fallout 2 would have had me knee deep in vaginas in.
Fighting fire ants is amazing, because your usual strategy with enemies is to hide in cover and back yourself into walls and blast when the enemy comes around a corner. But with fire ants, you want open spaces, long distances between you and them. Also, fucking frenzied ants flaming cars and they explode.
This game is just immense.
Im constantly amazed by how much Bethseda has improved over Oblivion, im really impressed that they actually took the criticism to heart and improved every conveivable aspect of the gameplay from their previous game. I really respect this.
So I get out of the Enclave and Dogmeat and the Paladin are gone, the Paladin taking four unique weapons and some badass Enclave power armor (all 100% repair) with her. I find Dogmeat buried in the ground outside the vault (had to find him with the compass) and head to the Citadel. Carefully (so as not to trigger the talking cutscene) I find her in the lab, tell the mutant to take a hike (he won't use any armor/weapons I give him and Vengeance beats his laser so fuck that) and get my paladin back.
So I continue on to the main quest, following the robot into combat, until we reach the Jefferson monument. And lo and behold, my buddy the Mutant is outside, come to he- OH GOD WHAT'S HAPPENING? Why is he shooting at us? Half of Lyons' team are dead, and now the robot is shooting my mutant friend and oh god Dogmeat whyyyyyy!?
What the fuck happened? Is this a bug, or did I miss a major story point? Does this always happen if I dismiss that companion?
To be fair Id like to see a company that produces games with high quality animations do what bethseda does. I will conceed the animations arent the greatest, but the sum of its parts people, the sum of its parts. The details, my god.

I found the blue one, but by now I'm not sure they actually do anything. I think they're just easter eggs. Anyone find the red and blue doors yet?
I want one

Got an awesome weapon from Vance the Sheshkebab or something. Basically a flaming sword that has a fuck ton hit rate, and sets them on fire.
Awesome.
You don't get access to the Citadel until you progress a certain amount through the main quest.
Also EDIT: Does anyone know what to do with those keycards?
You got one? I thought you just got the sche-
Oh.

Awesome weapon, and awesome quest that toyed with my expectations.
Ah.
Damnit.

Yeah, quite a bit further.
Guess I'll go find that talking power armor.

I don't know but after messing about in there on the computers I came outside to some weird shit going on in the sky.
Also, is it just me or is the VATS system complete shit? It keeps missing...

I like using a sniper rifle from half a mile away. Commando, sniper, and 100 in small arms make my trips through the wasteland exceedingly safe.
Now if only .308 weren't so rare, I would be in business. I have plenty of caps, but no one ever stocks more than 10-15 rounds of it.
