Quote from: Patriot's Bitch;1448145I don't give a fuck about that. I saw a side-by-side comparison and there was barely a difference between 360 and the PS3.

high five marlin

Now that the PS3's here I'm startin' to play it. Since I'm a goody two-shoes type of RPGer, I've already turned Burke in and later shot him dead before he got to the sheriff.

I killed everyone in Big Town for supplies, weapons etc. and then cut all of their limbs (well at least their arms, legs and head) off with a knife. I tend to do this with many bodies. I think i'm a bit disturbed.

oh and super mutants are so funny and cute but hard to kill!

In Arefu now, some shit's bout to go down.

I was too late to save the sheriff

I was weighing the cost/benefit of keeping him alive and not getting his stuff for free, I decided to be the ultimate goody two-shoes. I do like how you can carry over your weight, it just makes you slow as hell. I raided the whole Super Duper Mart of supplies and just limped all the way back to Megaton to sell it.

Although, before that I got killed by mercenaries that I didn't bump into the second time. I guess I already have a price on my head for killing Burke.

I saved the town, now because of the karma everyone is giving me free stuff when I go.

Saved it? Do you have to disarm the bomb to save it? I haven't done that yet.

I just lit an entire room of ghouls on fire with my shishkebab. Suh-weet!

There's a civilized ghoul settlement, right?

I want to have a ghoul for a party member.

Quote from: Joey 06892;1451287Saved it? Do you have to disarm the bomb to save it? I haven't done that yet.

yeah disarm it, then go to the sheriff (or his son if he died) to go get your house in Megaton.

Wait, he has a son?
Well I disarmed it with my new level. Also made it so I could break into stronger locks. I was going to the memorial to do the marlock sidequest for Moria but then I got intterrupted by the kid that brings you to the fireant infested town so now I'm caught in another sidequest.

I liked how if you got your radiation poisoning to 600 you get mutated when she heals you. I also loved the chat option "Sometimes, when I'm alone, I can hear my genes crying."

Quote from: Joey 06892;1451679Wait, he has a son?

yeah, some weird name but I forgot.

Quote from: Joey 06892;1451679Well I disarmed it with my new level.

what was your explosives skill? if it was 20-24 you could have just gone out and kill some raiders so you get a Blast armor cap. it's +5 Explosives skill. That's what I did so I didn't have to level up, per se.

Quote from: Joey 06892;1451679But then I got intterrupted by the kid that brings you to the fireant infested town so now I'm caught in another sidequest.

ooh I loved that one. I had to use my minigun to effectivly do the last part though (it's pretty hard).


I accidentally told Moira I didn't want to do anymore research after chapter 2 (it was a speech challenge and I had 100% so I didn't actually read the damn thing :c), and now I'm sad.

If I accepted the quest to blow up Megaton from Mr. Burke, can I still choose not to blow it up and save it or whatever?

Idno. Just talk to the sheriff. If the option is open, then I guess that's a yes.

Quote from: salt;1451687If I accepted the quest to blow up Megaton from Mr. Burke, can I still choose not to blow it up and save it or whatever?

if you first talk to Burke, you'll only get the option to rat out Burke to Simms (you can still answer "I'm just kidding" the second line, but then it's serious). Then Simms and you go to the bar to arrest him.
draw fast and you'll be able to kill Burke before he kills Simms

I saved megaton too.. Im a bit pissed about it to be honest. I didnt realize it was the only real nuke I could blow up in the game..

Also the only opportunity to lose 1000 karma with the press of a button.

How exactly do you get a number reading of karma, though, all I can see is the karma-class symbol.

Yeah, its in the National History Museum, there is a ghoul mercenary in the bar who's contract you can purchase, he becomes your party member after that.

Is there a big XP bonus after completing moira's guide?
