Fallout 3 Thread

I play on teh PC and have modded the heck out of my game. My personal favorite mod changes the Fat Man into the Zero Division Calculator. It is much more powerful and has the coolest explosion effect I have ever seen:

Some say that he is allergic to a fungus found only between the toes of Corsairs,
and that he is oblivious to 98% of Liberty Law. All we know is...
He's called the Busdriver!

My char's name is Willy, and i swear he's the ugliest bastard you;d ever come across in the wastes (balding orange-haired Irish guy with shaggy sideburns) he's even uglier than a cenataur (or whatever you call them 3 tongued things)

Melee weapons and big guns are his speciality!

My fav'rit mod is the Enclave commander mod, what other mod lets you command a enclave vertibird to nuke/plasma bomb/minigun tanpenny or command a force of chinese soldiers?

Ok. Opinions. I'm a semi-fan of the series meaning played through the 1 and 2, but have not gotten the expansions and what-not. And I liked them like many of the other RPG games. I've read the review about FallOut 3 and am thinking of getting this game.

Worth it? I mean timewise. I don't have that much time on my hands, so I need some "investment advice" here.

Doesn't need that much time, you can play it casually whenever you feel like it, but the game itself is huge, and can be played for a month if you were on it each day for quite a while:P Either way, really good investment in my opinion, especially with all the downloadable content they keep popping out.

Right now I'm playing through on very hard with an unarmored character who gets a little something extra from grenades.

Very hard is rather aptly named, the extra difficulty of being handicapped by a limited combat style makes it far more entertaining than the simple sniper I had before.

Sneaking around headshotting everyone is not nearly as fun as being forced to size up every fight before it happens, laying down mines to thin out the enemy and being well and truly screwed when caught out in the open by, well, just about anything.

I'm still in the early game stages, level 7-8 or so, having just picked up my second level of Iron fist.

AND I found Fisto, which is epic, as I've not been using any sort of insider knowledge.

To wrap it up though, if you're a gun fiend I might suggest downloading the classic fallout weapons mod from Fallout Nexus. It adds a number of excellent guns from Fallout 1-2 which will be like dear old friends. While some of them are exceptionally powerful the modder did a very good job of incorporating them into enemy loot tables... Which, again, isn't doing me any good as the raiders I'm fighting occasionally are carrying 14mm pistols and the like.

But still, running around like a ninja is fun. Even if I'm a ninja that can't sneak, gets shot constantly and is scrounging around looking for scrap metal to sell in order to buy yet more drugs.

Fallout 3 vanilla has been fun enough for me. Got it on the xbox which doesn't deal well with DLC.. Mostly just running around in Badlands clothing with a hunting rifle realy. The propper way to do stuff.

Though, Fallout 3 is definatly gonna be on the new pc.

I've made 2 characters for this brilliant game, and I'm about to make another one:

Drake- A hacker/infiltrator, with skills in Energy Weapons. Good Karma
Lilly- Also a hacker/infiltrator, but thanks to bettter skills management, is fairly good with small guns, as well as incredibly skilled with energy weapons. Neutral Karma.

And I'm about to make Malcom, who will blow up Megaton and then have huge feelings of remorse and will try to make amends throughout the capital wasteland.

Just got it for the PC myself, all DLC's. Plus some mods. Want more, but the falloutnexus.com activation email hasn't arrived yet:dry:day in.

My character's somewhat offa neutral-evil kind of thing. Outcast scribe robe with a Gauss rifle and chem habit. (Got this epic chem mod which completely overhauls the effects and chems themselves, plus added cigarettes.) Plus a mothership as house.
