Think I'll have to make another, right after I finish, as an evil guy, so many fun opportunities missed. Car is best filled with the microfusion ammo for weapons like the plasma rifle. Believe you can also use the laser/plasma pistol ammo on it, but the ratio is poor enough that it isn't worth it. Arcanum is definitely worth playing too, if you can find a copy of it.

If you don't want to pick up the childkiller perk, you can also empty your inventory of everything except primed dynamite, then let them pick your pocket. 30 seconds later, and there's child guts on the walls.

i can't see at work either but that's because i don't so much have a cublicle as an open office space where coworkers walk past my desk CONSTANTLY. UGH. it would not look like work. not like ilx :D

Okay, got it to work.
Fade-in: a close-up of a vacuum tube radio, tube comes to life and innocent postwar american pop tune plays(think the opening songs to FO1 & 2). Camera slowly zooms back and dollys out to show that we're in a ruined city bus, dolly out again to show a destroyed eastern american city. Grey and grey-black and blue-grey are the only colors. We zoom out again to show a dude in FO1-era power armor on the left hand of the screen, packing an automatic. Dude turns and looks at the camera, then slow fade-out.
Ron Perlman does the classic line, then "FALLOUT. 3" appears before dissolving into "FALL 2008"

Radio is a Radiation King. Bus adverts are a "ENLIST today!" and one for the local Vaul-Tec vault, featuring Pipboy.

On June 5, 2007, Bethesda released the Fallout 3 Teaser trailer. The press kit released with the trailer indicates that Ron Perlman is on-board with the project, and cites a release date of Fall 2008. The trailer also features the Ink Spots song "I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire", which the previous Fallout developer Black Isle Studios originally intended to license for use in the first Fallout game. The trailer, which was completely done with in-engine assets, featured a closing voice over by Ron Perlman.

You start at birth in Vault 101, and they kept the SPECIAL system.

Also, Tombot, you should get a kick out of the setting: a wasted Washington DC.
At some point, your guy has to use abandoned Metro lines to get around.

thing runs on PC, you shouldn't have to buy a new console. if you can run Oblivion, you should be able to run this(i hope i hope).
and the number of supermutants on the current metro lines isn't quite as noticeable as in the game.

vid of the aborted Van Buren/Fallout 3 project, before Interplay cut the funds and decided to make that stupid console game. Really. They had a choice between FO3 and F:BOS, and they went with the one that sold less than like 25K.
Also, NMA-Fallout has some new screengrabs and interviews w/ Bethesda from E3.
― kingfish, Thursday, 19 July 2007 04:13 (sixteen years ago) link
My approach on these, if the game allows it, is to take a linear path through to the end, and then run around doing other junk for fun, little clean-up quests. If the narrative branches a lot, then I'll play through a second time instead of doing things post-game, and not concentrate on getting to the end.
I just remember figuring out back in the Fallout 2 days that there was one gun store that had a fully-stocked basement, a single dude working there, and virtually no penalty for taking him out as soon as possible. Running around the wasteland and just blasting everyone after that was a joy.

I think that's the thing that was missing from Fallout 3. It really needed a trail of venomous candy just under the surface urging you to become a complete sociopath. The promise of reconciling with your father, who is a force for good in the world, is bullshit. It's a dog-eat-dogmeat world out there. Even if you help your people, they'll end up exiling you anyway.
― mh 😏, Monday, 7 November 2016 22:22 (seven years ago) link
i basically already said this but i think if you enjoyed fallout 3/new vegas and are ok with a game that doesn't really add much new to those games except a new story and slightly better graphics, getting fallout 4 is worth it. i think i paid like $20 for a used copy and i don't have any regrets.

I'm enjoying what little I've played, made a big mistake of looting loads and not saving - then dieing. Kinda stopped me from loading it up for a bit. I'll return, wiser.

flip side, I am enjoying it. Love the weapon crafting and half enjoying base building although don't see much point in it - at least gives me some reason to loot the shit out of anything though.
But yeah filling my fallout 3 thirst.
Flip again..
