Has anyone read this yet? I got mine in the post today but I won't be reading it for a few days once I finish what I'm reading already (Belgarath The Sorceror). I'm looking forward to it but I do have a few pre-read gripes about it.
It seems a little clichéd plot wise: A floating city of evil, a ...

Cheers Boss!

Just a quick question, and one I'm pretty sure I know the answer to anyway but still: I've just started the Broken Steel quests and was planning to work my way through the full set but then I had a niggle. The game DOES stay open ended once you complete the quest doesn't it? I mean it doesn't finish ...

I've just finished Point Lookout and, before I played it, I just thought you were being overly dramatic. My apologies.

I was level 13 and my combat shotgun made barely any impact on the Tribals that attack in Calvert Mansion at all. I tried tunning past them and SPOILER blowing up the red boilers ...

Although I don't usually blow out Megaton sooner or later I will :laugh: just to see how Bethesda worked out that effect u know ...

Yeah last time around I blew up the bomb just to see what happens (and to try using TPT as a home instead of Megaton)

The resulting explosion is dead impressive ...

I did the Slavery quest to get into Paradise Falls whilst very evil and just bought her from thingy pimp whose name I forget.
I'm pretty sure it's the alignment thing that's important not the completion of Strictly Business like the man said.

provided you do a mini-quest which involves a town i cant recall...

Canterbury Commons over on the East side.

Also, if you didn't fancy trading and kill them all off then they each have a key on their corpse. This should open their personal locker in the mayor of CC's house which , I assume ...

The latter, but you'll probably reach level 25-26 just by playing Broken Steel.

SWC

Yeah I thought as much thanks.
It just seems like a lot of waste. For me, personally, a lot of the fun goes out of the game once I stop gaining XP and I generally just start again with a different character. I ...

I don't yet have Broken Steel and was wondering about, yes, the level cap.

My current character was level 20 a while ago and since then I've been tracking down all of the bobbleheads (I'm up to 17 so far). I've been doing this for a good while and would have racked up a fair few XP's for it if I'd ...

[url="http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/L.O.B._Enterprises"]This[/url] ( <-- linky) should help you, and the actual site may have more info for you.


BE WARNED! that place has more spoilers in it than even here....


That's great, cheers.

I didn't realise there was a wiki for Fallout, I swear by ...

Not far from the the Falls Church Metro (near where Paladin Hoss is fighting Supermutants) I found a building called L.O.B Enterprises. It doesn't show up on the word map and can't be discovered.
Spoiler I suppose: It's mainly populated with Robobrains, Protectrons and Mr Gutsy's. I was level 10 ...

You're meaning the Red Pass and Blue Pass? I wondered what they were for too.

I read in Xbox magazine that they don't do anything but are a nod to Doom. I've not played Doom, or the earlier fallouts if what other people say is right, so I can't verify but it's answer enough for me to stick them in ...

I've not tried repairing the robots but I have stumbled axcross a couple of defunct security robots around the back of big town. I dunno if they're just scenery or the ones you're looking for.

I normally just put down a couple of mines on the bridge then shoot the legs off any surviving mutants ...

I spend the majority of the game in Red's Bandana, it looks alright and doesnt cover the face up like some of the other hats and stuff.
The blastmaster helmet can be handy sometimes too though I never wear it for any length of time.
ooh and the hood someone else mentioned it quite good as well.

i use combat shotgun and chinese assault rifle. Been pretty good!

That's pretty much all I used the first time through too, along with the Shishkebab as well.

Lincoln's Repeater, like others have said, is nifty if you can find it.

Oh you can find The UltraSMG (spoiler) with Sydney in the ...

The corpse may have disappeared, as after certain time those do. Yeah this is quite likely. Hmph.


Spoiler ahead:
Also, Megaton is starting point of one quest which can't be got anywhere else. The android quest.
End of Spoiler.


I'm not sure about this. Granted I've always started this quest ...

I played once using Megaton and once using Tenpenny Tower. I liked Megaton better. You can repair there, the caravans stop there, and you can turn in scrap metal there. But there are a bunch of merchants in the game. You can always head to Rivet City to sell stuff.

SWC

Yeah I do often go to ...

Possible spoilers ahead.

I've yet to side with Mr Burke in the Power Of The Atom and how much of an impact to the game doing so makes?
I use Megaton as my main stop off point for selling on all the stuff I accrue through the game, I know there's other places to go and there's Tenpenny Tower to ...

Terra Arcanum >> the World of Troika Games is about the biggest Arcanum source I know of. Try to do a google on "Arcanum save game editor".

That's great thanks. I googled and think I've found something similar to what I was looking for. I'll try installing it and see how it goes. Thanks again.

If you don't do the quest, he doesn't learn about his past, so he doesn't get depressed, and you have to kill him in a fair fight (which doesn't count as a murder)
Well I go to 'foot of our stairs, I didn't know that about him! I've only ever fought him wanting to die, Is he particularly tough to ...
