exactly. Thanks Rat
Fallout 3 = Oblivion with guns
- Thread starter Kurayami
- Start date
i really think bethseda shouldve taken some creative liberties with the direction of fallout 3. they could've had some scientist maniac's atrium somewhere, or a desert or water place. bioshock had a decent amount of that, and it's definelty talked about and seen in gears of war 2. actually theres where i thought of it, in gears of war 2 they specifically say we're trying to stay within our dark/gorey atmosphere but give you more than teh same brown and greys over and over
that and the subway system grind/super mutant everywhere grind is really boring
i was overly harsh when i flamed this game upon its release, i think it stands up pretty well and is solid

He has good taste and was lucky enough to play the best PvP game ever made in it's prime? I agree then!
The pip boy is pure console shit. How anyone can defend that is beyond me.
They should have made a pc pip boy. One where you don't have to click all over the screen just to get a damn map. We don't even get a hotkey for critical things like the map.
I like fallout 3 but they crippled the pc version with stupid stuff like the inventory. (again)

The pipboy is holding up the game with its unnecessary navigation. When using a gamepad your cursor automaticly locks on the first item of a list. The mouse does not.
The inventory is just plain shit. Trying to sell the right things is a mini game on itself.
I hope they create an inventory mod before I finish the game.

this game is awesome
Fallout 1 & 2 were masterpieces, I agree there.
Fallout 3 lives up to the name and the series for me but falls short in a couple areas
Level cap 20? get real, make it harder to obtain or raise the cap so we can get access to more perks
FPS element was cumbersome and underworked, I found myself hiding until I had recharged enough AP to pop out and use the V.A.T.S. again then running around and gunning
Super good or super bad ending, no middle ground. You're either a kingly saint or a baby fucking demon
other then that there is a shitload of extras out there and my first play through I had a hard time sticking to the story quest simply because I let my curiosity get the better of me and wandered off to explore
NPC's are well done and seem to be aware of their surroundings and current events in the game world. Sit and listen to them sometime, they actually converse among themselves about different topics. I sat for a good 5 minutes in the germantown police station listening to the supermutants talk about needing more people from Big town and planning out their next raid.
The plethora of weapons and armor as well as craftables give plenty of choices to kill things, my current favorite was getting the Fisto! and raising sneak and unarmed skill and running around delievering K.O.'s left and right. Before that I just had to try the walking nuke (powered armor and fatman). Nothing raisies eyebrows more then busting down a door and landing a mushroom cloud in the middle of the room.
And of course the radio stations. You can get missions from them, be entertained and even keep up with the day to day happenings of the DC wasteland while the DJ either sings your praises or curses your name.
and of course if you got the PC version expect infinite replay value thanks to user created mods. I can't wait to see what some people come up with.
All in all I give it a solid 9/10

There HAS to be a top hat and lincon beard getup out there somewhere
Angry Lincon has awoken
The world did not end, that's true.
I consider this point a major complaint tho. It's the second time they pull this shit of. They did it with oblivion and everyone hated it. Fair enough, minor problem, learn from it. They created fallout 3 and they do this again. At that point it isn't a minor problem anymore.
Now you could say that this was a design choice. Ok but then don't claim the game to not be a console port. I remember them claiming in interviews that they were afraid that the game would be too inaccessible for console players. That they were developing for multiple platforms, etc. Yeah ok, at that point maybe they should just had to shut the fuck.

You can get the hat in the same place as the weapon.
