Forum:Operation: Anchorage or Mothership Zeta?

I feel like getting another DLC for fallout 3. I already have Broken Steel, level 28, sure as hell not getting the Pitt or Point Lookout. I can't decide between the other two DLCs, so if someone could help me out with my decision.. To tailor the choice to my liking, I've made a sort of chart of what I like and dislike in both the DLCs.

Anchorage: likes: Gauss Rifle CSA Helping the BOS outcasts dislikes: having to constantly save to make up for health having to use some low-grade weapons

Mothership Zeta: likes: Paulson's Revolver more alien weapon ammo epoxy dislikes: annoyingly tiered aliens bland storyline

It's pretty close to me, and I'm no good at decisions like this. Disclaimer: I already own BS,I already own Fallout 3, so I don't feel like getting GOTY. Answers such as 'Why not just get them all with GOTY edition?' will be ignored. Thanks. Automatic Grand Theft 18:22, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

Why not the Pitt? I though that one was awesome and what's wrong with point lookout? It gives you a whole new map to explore. I hated mothership zeta and Operation Anchorage was way too short. Zac hemker 15:29, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Get Anchorage man, Stealth armor is ridiculous. no one will be able to stop you, or see you. Not to mention the exploit with the armor, feel like punching 2,000 with a power fist? --Xa3 15:39, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Anchorage - Gary 23 glitch can get some of the best guns in the game undegrading, and the associated ammo glitch means you will never need any more 5.56 rounds. KusseldorfEggcup 15:44, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

I got Operation: Anchorage. @KusseldorfEggcop, how do you do the Gary 23 glitch? I know what it is, but I can't find a tutorial for it. Automatic Grand Theft 05:23, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Get the Game of the Year edition, that way you get them all, (it is not expensive). One nice thing about Operation Anchorage is that you get Power Armor training, plus the power armor you get at the end never needs repair.DarthOrc 05:38, July 7, 2011 (UTC)DarthOrc

In all honesty I liked both, but i'd have to recommend Operation: Anchorage. I am wondering as to why you won't get The Pitt its a fantastic DLC, I could see Point Lookout sure scared the shit out of me. I really do have to say you should definitely get Operation: Anchorage AND The Pitt.MethodMan96 1:46, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I hate Point Lookout because of its terrible new weapons and the terrible storyline. As much as I like the Pitt, I like it for one reason: The Perforator. And as much as I like that weapon, I don't feel like wasting hours on end finding all those steel ingots just so I can get one gun, plus a bunch of useless armor and such.

Point Lookout is by far the best DLC besides Broken Steel. A new land to explore, more quests, more free-roam rather than the extremely linear storylines of Anchorage, The Pitt and Zeta. Telos 22:31, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I've said it three times to two different people now. ALl point lookout offers is an annoying cast of characters, an annoying batch of enemies (mutant rednecks, seriously?) And a crappy area to explore. I don't care for how many quests there are, I care about how involved they keep you and now fun they are period. As far as I've seen, I hae Point Lookout's storyline. This is a question about whether or not I should get Operation Anchorage or Mothership Zeta, and SHOULD have nothing to do with the other DLCs. Automatic Grand Theft 02:50, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

Why the aversion to point lookout? You just aren't explaining yourself fully, beyond a few curt replies. The storyline involving Desmond and Calvert that hints towards a deeper 'game' going on within the Fallout universe is one of the more interesting aspects of the FO storyline, and yet, because point lookout has 'mutant rednecks' you find it repellant? I mean, not liking something just because you don't like the look of it is a little knee-jerk to say the least. Or is it just me feeling that? 87.102.49.21 22:44, July 8, 2011 (UTC)

To do the Gary 23 or what ever glich you unlock a door in the same building as the machine to get to Anchorage and there will be a body in the room after that drag it into the machine that brings you Anchorage save right b4 going in the machine incase it doesnt work and so you can play the dlc again.then when you finish Anchorage you go back to the machine put everything in your inventory onto the body and if it worked right or didnt get patched the body should have all the items you put into it when you get back to the wasteland

Anchorage for better loot, but dude, your missing out if you don't get point lookout. Best one by far.

Heh, the pitt and point lookout are the two best DLCs , your really missing out , and all because of mutated rednecks , plus the story is actually quite cool , but everyone has their opinion i suppose ... anyways, you should probably get operation: Anchorage if you want to choose between it and zeta
