Re: Fallout 3

How do you get your own crib?

Im like a level 13 and loving it.

Also, does anyone know where to find a crutch for the rail gun?

I don't know about your own crib, but the crutches I've seen randomly in houses, etc.

This game is addicting! Last night I played until 3 just because "I want to finish this quest". Killing 3 more mole rats turned into a couple hour exploring a sewer, killing raiders, etc. So damn fun!

Spoiler

I got mine by doing the "Mission" in Megatron of disarming the bomb there.

Someone was asking about the medical brace.

Re: Fallout 3

Mines are your friends. Ants are very stupid. Drop one, shoot ant, step back, ant go boom. If he has any health left, one more shot should finish him.

Also don't aim for legs, it only does 50% damage.

If there's more than one, aim for antennae as they will go berserk and attack other ants if you hit.

If you don't have any grenades or mines yet, I'd go back later.

Spoiler

You can pick up mines as you go through Marigold Station - I finished the quest at level 3. Used tons and tons of ammo and died a bunch but it was definitely worth it. VATS is your best friend on the ants - saves ammo and is much more effective

I found a few crutches at the Red Racer factory. It's just southeast of Megaton. I have so much stuff stored in my lockers at home just in case I need them for a schematic.

I just got my home and I'm so glad to have lockers so I can store stuff....Next I need the +50 carry weight perk (I'm not going for strong, so I can only carry 200 and gets frustrating).

*edit*

The weapons power (and sneak bonuses) make this game awesome once you get used to it. I snuck on a group of 5 raiders just talking in a circle. I lobbed a frag grenade at the middle one and killed them all. Awesome cutscene type thing too (using VATS). Just sweer to watch.

In all honesty I've yet to find anything about this game I don't like.

Yes...sneaking is a great way to get critical strikes.
Love it.
Like Skyboxer....I just can't find anything I don't like about this game.
What do you guys do with Dogmeat as far as combat?
I had her(I know it's a male in the game....but MY DM is a girl) die and I don't like it.....
If you tell her to stay put(away from combat) do the baddies go after her anyway(I only had a chance to play a little since finding her)?
I've got the PC version and I'm really hoping for some excellent mods!:wink:

I know of two ways to get a house. first is to disarm the bomb in megaton. The wanna be sheriff will give you the abandoned house. Second is to do the quest that asks you to arm the bomb in Megaton. After that you will get a suite in Tenpenny Towers.

Super Mutants seem more likely to carry rail guns in the north western parts of the map

If you rent a room in Rivet city you can store all of your stuff. And it's beside the market.

Yeah...I will say that it took me a couple hours to fully get the hang of everything and really start to get into the VATS system and all the other combat stuff. Now that I'm level 8 I'm tearing it up, but have to go slow and quiet (stealth/snipe is how I'm building myself), otherwise I'll get killed by some guys. The shotgun sometimes rescues me, but depending on that isn't a good plan lol

Re: Fallout 3

Question on a sniper rifle:

Spoiler

At the Dickinson Tabernackle (I think that's what it is), kinda in the Northwest, there's a drifter that snipes with the Reservist Rifle...but he's on a 2nd floor that I can't seem to get to, so when I kill him I can't loot...am I missing something?

I got lucky. This guy started shooting at me, so I fired back with the sniper rifle and took him out in a few shots, and he fell backwards off of his perch to the ground, allowing me to loot him. The Reservist Rifle is totally worth it too.

If I were you, i'd save from a distance, run up and take him out and see if he falls. If not, reload and try again.
