I just got the GOTY a few days ago and I love this game. Just made it to level 5 last night. I punched a Super Mutant in the gut and that bitch folded like a chair.
Got a question for you guys that I asked in the 360 thread, but no one’s replied. Is there a level requirement for any of the DLC? Can I go to Point Lookout (which I read is pretty awesome) with my level 5 guy or will I get rocked?
Not really a level requirement but if you try to go to the DLC at that low a level you will get owned pretty hard.
What mod is that? It sounds awesome.
I jsut got the GotY edition for PS3 and wow, this game looks great and I only played it for like an hour! We actually got a glitch which froze the game; when we were gonna do the GOAT test, the game froze before we got the paper so he had to reload from a recent save point.
The GOAT test was hilarious to say the least. I plan to have my character be a ‘good’ fellow but with high stealing/stealth stats.
Now to decide whether to have a male or female and what to name them >=/
Just got the game installed on my new laptop that can actually run it. Any good mods and/or user-made content that I should get?
It was called XFO.
I changed it though, and had put in mods called FWE(which has XFO elements in it), FOOK2(a giant overhaul it’s gigs), WMK(let’s you customize weapons), and MMM(some new creatures and modified creatures already in) all combined together through another mod called FOIP. If you just type fallout 3 with one of these acronyms in a search they’ll pop up, probably through fallout3nexus.
get the fallout mod manager and fo3edit, before anything else. Those help you set everything else up. You should “acquire” or get all the DLCs if you can, cause alot of mods support all of them, and some don’t work 100% without all of them.
Anyway I had an issue with the mods combined, and me and my roomate got upset cause we couldn’t save game in Rivet City anymore, it kept crashing everytime. I don’t know how to fix this, other than deactivation FOOK2. We had sense then went back to Oblivion with my other roommate, wanting to play Fallout still.
Bump
Question, i currently stopped during the main quest( I just finished going through the Jefferson Memorial after leaving Rivet City) and i’m halfway through Operation:Anchorage.
My question is, what is a good time to start doing the other DLC quests like The Pitt, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta? BTW i’m playing with the GOTY edition.

I’d wait until you can use power armor. Makes things easier.
Thanks. Once i finish Operation Anchorage i’m probably gonna do some more sidequests before continuing the main storyline.
Does the Broken Steel DLC start once i get to the end?

^ You get some sick armor that never loses durability after Operation Anchorage.
I finished the main story+all of the DLC’s in 30 hours, and I didn’t have the dog with me the whole time, only now did I figure out where to get him, by looking up where he is.
This game is alright, but most of the time it’s boring. The constant running around with nothing around you to get to new areas…fuck. Borderlands shits on this game. My main gripe with Fallout 3 is the speed and pacing of the game…it’s slow. I’ve had the GOTY freeze on me about 5 times, which is annoying as hell, but sometimes it would freeze for 20-30 seconds and then decide it wanted to keep running, shit is strange. I’m glad I only rented this game, I did all of the main things to do in such a short period of time, I was surprised.
You’re playing it on console. This is why you fail.
You get the ability to use power armor either through the Citidel during the main quest, or after completion of Operation Anchorage.
Broken Steel DLC starts soon as you begin playing the game, due to the level 30 cap, and when you get to level I think 16 and up, some of the newer enemies pop up. Feral Ghoul Reavers, Albino Rad Scorpions, Super Mutant Overlords, etc. The actual story of Broken Steel doesn’t kick off until after I think this mission called “Take The Power Back,” which was the game’s original final mission.
It’s the same game whether or not it’s on console or PC. See the thing is, when you mod it, it’s not the same game anymore. I’m talking about the core experience, not how the game is when it’s modded if that’s what you’re implying by me playing it on console.
By that logic it’s not the same game the moment you put DLC in there, and thus, it’s only recently become the same game with the standardized GOTY edition.
But it’s not really the same experience at the core though, the PC version is flat out better, regardless. Period. Even unmodded, because first and foremost you can improve the video and graphic settings, there’s unofficial patches that fixed bugs Bethesda didn’t, it was 10 dollars cheaper, and not only that you could also just plug an xbox controller into the PC if you wanted.
Nevermind the fact that the PC version is just outright better than the PS3’s?
So when are we going to chop it up about [media=youtube]epFupigyIN8"[/media]?
okay so ive just recently finished the GOTY ed of this game (main quest + all side quests and all DLC) and im wondering, where the hell is my ending FMV? im not talking about the one that you get at the end of the main quest that just tells you what you did with the water purifier, i mean the one that gives details about all the side quests that you finished in the same way the old fallouts did.
thats the last thing i want to see on this game before i can retire it is just to find out how my side quest choices developed.
