About the 'lurks, I just ran as fast as I could and hope that I come across the stupid nest lol. Did you run into the merman looking motherfucker in the cave? I didn’t stop to see the name.
Just finished the ant mission, just hit level 15.
I actually get the drop on fools with sneak only because I’m either sniping or I just hit crouch as soon as I see someone, even if they’re 20 feet away.
I conserve my ammo like a bastard but last night I finally used the flamer. Oh man is that weapon EPIC. I’m a fiend for caps it sucks that a lot of my items recently have been breaking and it takes tons of caps to repair them. :wasted:
I never saw a merman. THough I did find a hidden compartment where the bottle caps are I believe but I can’t find the key…
there is also a broken door down there that you need hella high repair to try and fix. Also after the ants my strength is 9 ohhh yeah.
Where are these damn filtering chemicals I need in the Jefferson Memorial Rotunda? How do I power the electricity for that matter?!
i’m one of those gay nerds that likes to do role playing and immerse myself in a character, but i can’t figure out what type of character i am. i picked bartering, speechcraft, and science as my mains, and also pumping stuff into stealth and small arms. gonna focus on pumping intelligence, charisma, perception, and agility.
so maybe some nerdy yet charismatic dude who uses finesse and diplomacy instead of brute force to solve problems. like steve jobs or something. i always play a good character, hence reporting burke to the sheriff, saving amata but not killing the overseer, and etc.
the biggest complaint against oblivion by role playing nerds is that you couldn’t really play any character other than a brawler, due to the level scaling. hopefully that won’t be an issue here.
I found the railway gun and a melee weapon, cant remember what it is named.
[spoiler=] Go do the minefield and go slightly Northeast from where you kill Arkansas, there should be a power plant. Inside the main plant is the melee weapon and some stim packs. Watch out there are alot of ghouls in there that will attack you. One of them is a super ghoul, shotgun with headshot assist seems to be the best way to take care of them. Behind the main plant there is a small room that has the blueprints for the railway gun.[/spoiler]
Can anyone tell me where Dogmeat is?
I too am interested in finding dog meat. For my next character I wanna make a technician, can you get robots in your party?
There’s a guy who posted a FAQ on finding people. Regarding Dogmeat, he says:
Dogmeat
Karma: Any
Location: Just north of Megaton in the Scrapyard (near 8.03)
Requirement: From Megaton, go north past the river and you’ll find a Scrapyard
guarded by Raiders. He’ll be there mourning his previous master.
Approach him and he’ll join you.
Summary: Get him get him get him. Aside from the fact that you can have him as
a second follower, he’s great in combat against other humans, as
would be expected from an attack dog. Also, him scavenging for items
is a huge plus.
Problem is, he doesn’t get more descriptive than that. I’m still looking for him too. I came across a dog who RESEMBLES Dogmeat, but he had been only guarding a scavenger’s stuff. Upon attempting to steal it, he attacked me and I had to put him down. Let me know if any of you all have luck locating him.
I found Dogmeat in the scrapyard.
And I just got owned. I cannot complete a main story mission because it’s telling me I did not escape a particular area. I got what I came for and oddly enough, it did not tell me I was in a new area. So yeah, I can’t do anything except fuck around until I get a cheat working to complete the current mission or wait till these faggots patch the game up.
Where is said scrapyard? I’ve looked “North of Megaton” and seem to pass it. I go through the river and always wind up hitting the Family outpost in the train station.
Scrapyard is south of Minefield.
I get alot of Dogmeat from Super Mutants. Alot really, why do you guys need it?
No, the NPC Dogmeat.
Stop being like me ~_~
Someone let me know when you make it into and out of Vault 87 because my game is fucked up and won’t let me finish the mission.
So I’m not the only one doing the missions for moira good. For the lurker guys, I used a stealthboy or two and had a chance to explore their lair. On a corpse you find a note that helps you find all the goodies. It leads to a cpu, which tellls you where to get parts to repair that door (only 35 repair needed with parts) and inside there you get some goodies and the key to the freezer with a good amount of caps. I finished up chapter 2 with her last night.
I’m off to rivet city, as I now have 4 or 5 quests that need me to go there.
And I didn’t kill burke and the talon mercenaries are still coming after me right and left.
What’s the highest critical rate you guys have gotten?
I think mine is at 18% critical; 10% from 10 Luck, 5% from Finesse and another 3% from finishing Moira’s book. I know weapons can effect critical rates but haven’t messed around with that too much.
erf? you can see your crit chance somewhere on the character sheet??
Just picked this game up. I am new to the series.
It seems interesting.
I’m about 6 hours in and I love this game. I’ve been wanting a good RPG to play for quite a while and this definitely delivers the goods. I can’t find the dog though, even after reading previous posts. Can someone help me out here? Oh, and I’m making a stealth character and I get a lot of sneak criticals, not sure what you guys are doing(Sneak skill is 70 I think).
