Alright Volo has now lost his rights to post in any Fallout 3 thread.

How did you import OG Fallout music? http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=39 Also, a couple of must have mods: UI mod that makes the menus not so consoley: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=43 Slayer leather jacket (hell yes): http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=55 Higher resolution blood textures: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=50 There's also a mod that let's you play as a kid: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=56 edit: I also really like this handgun model: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=52

I'm interested in what those things are. So far the biggest annoyances have been the invisible walls, which I can manage, and the stupid way they've designed the difficulty levels. Hard is still too easy, but the hardest level gives enemies too much HP. First mod I want is one that tweaks the difficulty.

www.fallout3nexus has some pretty good mods already, mainly the interface mod and the soundtrack mod.

ok here's some pics (downsized from 1440x900) backflip, these guns pack quite a punch biggest gripe about the game: invisible walls taking a swim it's crippled alright no! bad doggie!

In Megatawn? Yeah. Make a separate save or start an evil character, whatever it takes. Prob. the best explosion in any game ever. Kind of like a cinematic or do you just have to get far enough away and watch the fireworks? Anyway, I look eat of Minefield for DM but I couldn't find him... You rig the bomb, go to Tenpenny Tower and watch the fireworks.

Now that Fallout 3 is out, Diablo 3. And GTA4 I guess.

dropping a deuce

If you want a real explosion, detonate the nuke. It's beautiful.

The dialogue is fine, it's the voice actors who are a bit...wooden. I guess that's the perfect analogy: Fallout 3 is the big budget hollywood sequel. Fallout 3 is like Terminator 3. Still, it's a good game.

That doesnt really make sense alan since the kids are unkillable. Can't wait for someone to mod that in btw

It would not have been held to such a high standard if it had been Fallout: Wastelands instead of Fallout 3, as people would not have been as quick to compare it to the original two games - just as Tactics is not demonized for drifting. What I think was the reason Fallout: Tactics is accepted is because it's a relatively good game. Everyone hated and still hates FOBOS because it was just plain crap. I bet that most people, even fans of the previous games will like Fallout 3 (I played them religiously in high school, and I'm enjoying the game a lot) once they get over their nerdrage and try it.

Absolutely. Source comes to mind, plus I heard good things about this Unreal engine also. Dragon Age engine could be pretty good, too.

It's actually a prequel. But what you're saying is that the 3 in the name is what offends you the most? Had they named it Fallout Origins or Fallout 0 or whatever, it would have been cool with you? That's kind of stupid.

You should find some Caninus.

New engine.

I just killed a super mutant with a minigun with 2 shots from my sniper rifle before he even had a chance to act. Playing on hard and the difficulty is juuuust a bit too low for my tastes. I guess I'll go with the highest difficulty setting on my next playthrough. Also the coolest part of the game so far: Arifu. Anyone here read Virtual Light by Gibson? That bridge with the crude shacks really reminds of that book. Awesome. I just wish the modtools were released so I could start developing my own mod for the game...

Heh, well yeah it was the same. But in FO1&2 yuo didn't actually see it hitting their eyes so it wasn't as bad. Here i shoot someone in the head 5 times from close range, and they just keep charging at me. It's just weird, feels like I'm fighting zombies. Actually that would be pretty much the best thing ever, survival zombie RPG mod for Fallout 3.

You're playing the better game... Yes and no. They're two completely different games, like comparing Warcraft 2 to World of Warcraft.

What I do is thay I start with VATS, then either take/run for cover and wait for my APs to come back or if I have enough ammo just shoot at the enemies in real time. I think it's actually a pretty "realistic" take on combat; you take a few well aimed shots and either wait for a new opening or just blast away, hoping that the bullets hit. Don't know if the combat will stay interesting later on though. Use cover and higher ground to your advatage (I killed like 5 fire ants from a building roof with the hunting rifle, they just ran around in panic). My only complaint about the combat is the relatively weak weapons and the abundance of action points. No one should take 5 bullets to the head and survive. But I guess making the weapons stronger would mess up the balance of real time combat. We'll see what people come up with when Beth releases the modding tools.

I don't think it's really possible to gimp your char, unless you like take 1 in every stat and never raise any combat skills. And use VATS. Seriously. It makes the game soooo much easier in the beginning. I'm playing hard, and I had no trouble wiping out the old elementary or the supermarket only using the first gun you get. I'm thinking about cranking up the difficulty since it's been so easy.

Fallout 3. Found the mini nuke as well. Now fixing pipe leaks.

Someone needs to mod this game to be way, WAY harder.
