wow i must be going insane, i'm sure I remember there being fire ants in fallout 2.

this is kinda off topic but uh... where does avatar come from because i can't stop staring at it and it motivates me for some reason.  i guess it's the endearing, child-like sense of awe and wonder with its simplistic design and bold line art.

oh... um... HEY THERE CHIIIIILDREEEEN THIS ISSS THREEEEEE DOGGG (on topic post)

I have no idea man I have GB of SAVED IMAGES on an external HD just if I like an image I save it and sometimes I browse through them and think THIS WOULD MAKE A COOL AVATAR.

Man, I've been playing this on medium textures with a low view distance for the last week. I just realised that my computer can handle high textures with full view distance, and damn it looks so much better.

Yeah .. as for graphics;  I'm running this on ultra with AA maxed and HDR lightening and it still runs smooth, as apposed to Oblivion which I have to run at much lower settings to overcome framelag.

So yeah, Oblivion is still graphics-wise the most unstable game , it could also be the many many mods that mess up the game; one reason to take it easy on with the fallout mods.

soon enough you will be able to receive Galaxy news from anywhere across the map

Yeah man, go over to fallout3nexus dot com. Browse all categories, have a look at the sound mods. You can get mods that let you replace the radio stations with your own music, etc.

Man ... I decided to give fallout a chance again today... im 14 hours in now and its freaking great.

Is it normal tho to encounter super mutuants with rocket launchers at lvl 1 and beat em?
And I liked to see more towns, something like a homebase instead of ten-edgeofmap-penny tower.

Also is dogmeat kill-able?


And I loved the Super duper mart, being welcomed by Enclave soldiers and fighting along side them against raiders , while being pulled out of the crowd by regulators who had a 10000 caps bounty on me.... yeah great game


Edit: Seriously only 17 side quests?

Yeah there's only 17 sidequests. Most of them take a relatively long time though, and there are also other quests that can morph into bigger ones. The game is big enough to warrant a 500 page guide. Even with the small amount of quests, it's still huge.

And yes, Dogmeat is killable. That's why he kinda sucks, cause you have to constantly look after him if you don't want him to die. It's even more ridiculous on harder difficulties, because you have to focus on not dying, as well as making sure he doesn't die.

Hm mm oke... but well as for the replicated man quest I can pretty much finish it right away by lying to Zimmer.

Also.. I had really liked to see more scavenging / survivaling, more post apocalyptica, I pretty much ignore everything and I have caps to spare. and I had the shiskabab at lvl 4.


Apparently there are allot more minor quests which don't appear in the quests log

Don't lie to Zimmer.

Find the Android, and be nice to him. He gives you a fucking ultimate Plasma Rifle. The A3-21 Plasma Rifle (I think).
