now your talkin real fallout business!

im runnin around with jericho"what the fuck man?!? i been standing hee foreva!"(best line eva) charon, rl-3, dogmeat, sydney, and clover. WE DESTROY as long as none of the idiots lag too far behind, and get in a battle before i can walk back to help. other than that they rock. alert me to enemies, added firepower, distraction in a firefight, shit is killer fun. I highly recommend getting you a team.

start with charon, then get rl-3 with fire rehire, then get clover with fire rehire. the go inside a building, tell rl to wait, then talk about something else, then fire. wait for 8 days. STAY INSIDE, you will get a message that robot jones has returned to the canterbury commons. then go hire jericho, and then go pick up rl-3. get dogman at any time, YOU DON’T NEED TO KILL HIM. although you might be tempted, that asshole runs to enemies outside my perception range and takes the whole team with him TO DIE if its death claw(s) or a few mirelurks.

i gave clover brotherhood outcast armor and terrible shotgun. jericho has lindens power armor from oasis quest and reservists rifle , and charon has power armor and his regular weap…lol he doesn’t equip any weapon i give him yet, he has a fat man on him, hoping he doesn’t find a mini nuke and fukkin blow us all away.

gonna do german police town hq so i can have red on team, and i MIGHT get sticky from lil lamplizzle, he seems like a bich tho, i know it would help to have more members, but…fuck, sticky is a bitch

niggas steal exp like mad tho, so im usually armed with a3-21 plasma rifle, vengeance, and burnmaster so i can do enough damge to get my exp. at lvl 18 already so its not really a big deal until i get broken steel.

so yeah, get a team niggas, shit is mad nuts, roving death squad in the wastes ftw

542

^^Thanks a lot!

yeah, i actually hate levelling up fast, lol so I really like having a team with me. I actually stopped tapping lockpick to 100 and I still got to 30 before I even do any of the expansions and finish the main quest.

I’m actually thinking of giving everyone just a baseball bat while I snipe the enemy weapon from their hands and watch my team whack the shit out of raiders/enclave. lol too bad some of them don’t stick to following orders.

I love doing that on lincoln memorial too. I sneak/pick pocket everyones weapon and give them bats/unarmed and do the same to temple of union crew and just watch them duke it out hand to hand. lol. guns ruin the fun.

PS.
I keep on getting this “glitch” where Fawkes doesn’t have his sledge hammer when I exit raven rock. Anyone know what’s up?

543

^ I haven’t seen Fawkes use his super sledge after Raven Rock.

There’s nothing left for me to do in this game lol. Except discover locations and find the special armor/weapons but thats it until the next update comes out. If I ever get a better computer MAYBE I’ll just grab the goty edition so I can mess around with mods or something.

544

My roommate used the arctic glitch to get over 100 unarmed skill, and went on a punching rampage. But, when he hits stuff that can take more than one blow (deathclaws, Behemoths) they get KOed before they die. Like a paralyzing palm hit, but he is doing it outside of VATs and they don’t stay down for as long.

Is there a way to trigger the knockout without using the glitch?

545

You can ask fawkes to change up her tactics to focus on close range.

546

Oh shit that’s right. The only dialog options I select are the ones involving him as a pack mule :smiley:

547

Got into fallout 3 just this week on PC dear god sooo addicting. Got all the DLC’s except point lookout and still in the starter area around megaton…haven’t got dogmeat yet thou is he near by?

548

Dogmeat is in the scrapyard like northeast of Megaton. Just go north from Megaton until you cross a river and then do some exploring…you can’t miss it.

549

Thanks doing Operation:Anchorage right now and man what a rush got my manager to pick it up again and sends me regular updates on his deathclaw dealings.

550

Nice. Those deathclaws can be a pain in the ass. Sometimes they’ll ambush you when you least expect it, but it’s nothing a gatling lazer can’t solve :lovin:

I myself am waiting for the Mothership Zeta DLC to come out. The minute I saw you could get your hands on some samurai armor, I was sold.

551

Anyone try Mothership Zeta yet? I’m stuck on that viewing room right after doing the space walk (after which you depressurize then meet your crew). I think the kid is supposed to crawl underneath the next door so she could open it but she isn’t moving. Also the Samurai dissappeared from my party, he’ll probably turn up later. I was really tempted to kill him right after defrosting just to get his armor. lol.

I like the changes in the new patch. So far, running feels faster, Jericho is red on your radar so he’s easy to spot. Although he also goes red everytime you engage in combat as well, although he doesn’t attack you. I don’t know how this will affect having other companions though (If they attack him or not). I also downloaded the UK patch I think, by mistake because all my save files are GONE. lol I had to start from scratch.

552

Fallout online release today

553

best game ever, been playing since the very first fallout. By then it had more mature context. Loved the original if you haven’t played it try it out.

554

Mothership Zeta was mixed bag for me. Probably the worst dlc imo.

Best part about it is the alien epoxy.

555

Still debating if I should go ahead and get a 360 copy and get the expansions on Live or wait until the Game of the Year edition with the expansions on the disc already. As of right now, I’m just playing through the PS3 version again as a bad guy. At level 16, I haven’t done hardly any of the stuff I did on my last playthrough. It’s a whole new game until I start dealing with the dad part.

Underground ghoul place…

Spoiler

What’s a good way to kill that broad Carol so I can get Charon’s contract? That chick that hangs with her never leaves her side it seems. I have a 10mm with a silencer on it, but I don’t think that shit’s gonna work…homes said not to shoot her anyway.

556

^^^^^^

Carol

Spoiler

Even though I had the chinese stealth suit (you can do it without it). I just did the shady sands shuffle (grenade + pickpocket) when she was out smoking. Or stealth it up and maul her when she sleeps.

557

I can never get the grenade pickpocket thing to work. I know it’s supposed to say “live grenade” or something when you do it right, but it never does. Maybe because I’m about as sneaky as an ADD kid with tap shoes and tourette’s syndrome.

558

Sneaking becomes a lot easier with silent running. I got it as soon as it appeared and makes killing harder enemies (like in the dlc) much easier. Stealth boys are way too good because they last a long time and make you invisible when crouching. You should find more then you need over the course of the game so you can splurge on them if you want.

559

I’ve only done it once ever but I don’t think it said ‘live grenade’. I just put it in their inventory and they blew up lol.

Oh, just wait for the goty edition. Unless you just want the Broken Steel/Point Lookout expansions. Those two are probably the only ‘essential’ ones imo. Everything else depends on how much you like the game.

560

operation anchorage is almost “essential” for stealth characters, that stealth suit basically makes the game easy mode with silent running and 100 sneak, to boot you get an awesome sword which really completes the ninja feel (plus better criticals, ninja and 100 melee, omg touch of death). The other stuff you get is good, but not earth shattering, its basically a long mission for some really nice loot, not really an expansion.

Broken steel is worth is just for the level cap and perks (although I question why this had to be DLC and purchased, at least its not horse armor)

I think the sneaking/grenade/mine thing only works if you do it undetected, it requires a sneak check like pick pocketing.
