Fallout 3

[salt]

I finally played some of this a tiny bit this morning. Though it wasn't enough to give a full opinion on the game, of course, I loved what I did get to see. Dunno if this count as spoilers or not but either way:

Got up to the part in Vault 101 where I just left my birthday party and arrived at the nuclear reactor. Everything's flowed smoothy and well. I like my dad a lot. He looks bright and kind, and well, is rather kind actually. I love how so far, everything's been more of a social aspect. I had to stand around at the party, talk, and the dialogue was great and funny. Those bullies were really mean! ;_;

I'm running this on High pretty well so ye pretty happy about that. I love the atmosphere and all so far so I think I'll come to like this game a lot. Glad I bought it.

I finally played some of this a tiny bit this morning. Tstuff

[RomanClock]

How many different weapons are there supposed to be?

[Bigglesnoots]

How many different weapons are there supposed to be?

a lot, otherwise the different weapons skills would be a bit silly.

How does your father look?

does your dad's face change according to how you chose yours?
awesome!
I thought it might, since he said that I'd look like him later.

[BobbyClock]

a lot, otherwise the different weapons skills would be a bit silly.

A significant amount less from the previous two :l It's not a lot at all.

Also, pretty sure your dad just changes race, that's it. I've altered a caucasian around and he hasn't changed.

So I looked up the numbers:

Fallout 1
12 small, 3 big, 10 energy, 12 melee, 6 explosive
Total: 43

Fallout 2
29 small, 8 big, 21 energy, 19 melee, 7 explosive
Total: 84
(Some are exactly taken from Fallout 1)

New in Fallout 2
16 small, 5 big, 11 energy, 7 melee, 1 explosive
Total: 40

Fallout 3
24 small, 10 big, 12 energy, 32 melee, 6 explosive, 7 custom
Total: 91
(Some are based on previous fallout, but none exact)

Also, Fallout 3 has a ridiculously huge number of armor compared to Fallout 1 or 2. No info on any other matter though.

Except you should roughly half these numbers, because a good chunk are just 'Specially-named-gun-that's-a-bit-better-than-normal'.

Otherwise, you've skimped out on a few of Fallout 2's extra bunch, Small Guns is in the thirties if you're counting 'duplicates'.

Still, impressed that they have three base pistol types.

Edit: Double-checking, Fallout 3 has just a little less than Fallout 2 (Including duplicates), but 3 has less 'unique base' weapons, so bleh.

[salt]

man I am so glad this hasn't turned out to be Oblivion with guns.

at least for me, it hasn't.


love thisss

[Marlin Clock]

Damn you UPS, why isn't my PS3 here yet so I can play it

[Bigglesnoots]

I love the armor in Fallout 3.
especially when you have high repair skill :3

BECAUSE YOU GOT A PS3 AND FALLOUT 3 FOR A PS3
TWO BIG MISTAKES BUDDY >:C

In Fallout 2 the duplicate guns I subtracted were exactly like the gun that was duplicate.
If something has a similar name, but different stats, then its a different gun.
I can't be 100% sure about duplicates though.

And in Fallout 2 if you include duplicate type guns you'd still have a total of only 90 (only 6).

I'm not sure what gave you the idea that Fallout 2 had so many more guns than Fallout 3. They have basically the same amount.

[Bigglesnoots]

so I found the console command that can supposedly alter the levelcap
setgs iMaxCharacterLevel n
n being the new levelcap, of course
I'll try this right now

edit: I tried it for 40 and the console responded by stating that Gamesetting iMaxCharacterLevel >> 40
so it worked

wooo

i returned to Vault 101, wearing Outcast power armor, shades, and Harkness' plasma rifle drawn

I tried to get back into Vault 101 but it said that the door was activated some place else.

[WrenchClock]

you get the quest by escorting the nerds scientists to the citadel, then answering the distress signal on your radio via Megaton

Huh? Why is that a mistake?

[Heliopios]

Huh? Why is that a mistake?

the ps3 is the worst port of the game


Development went something like this

Original->Xbox360 -> PC -> Ps3

[Marlin Clock]

I 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.
