Is there some time delay for the radio signal? I downloaded from within game and got no signal; powered the console off, relaunched the game and travelled to Megaton, Fort Constantine and Fort Independence, and still no new radio signal. So now I deleted the DLC, and am redownloading at 80% complete :( Looks like I may spend more time getting it started than playing it since word is it's 3-4 hours to play.--DoubleGrande 20:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Annoying, yes, it is a few minutes delay of real game waiting time. Waiting, travelling, et cetera, do not affect it. I went ahead after the second download and just played and it was not quite five minutes of dinking around before the signal popped up.--DoubleGrande 21:11, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah you have to wait about five minutes. When I downloaded it I was really impatient, and thought I would have to travel to a certain area to get the radio signal, so went to Fort Independence, but obviously no joy. Fast tracked to a few more places, was getting angry... then suddenly I got the signal. --JimmerUK 00:27, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Stupid question, do you have to be connected to xbox live to use the DLC or can you download it then play without being online? I downloaded it last night then disconnected and tried to access the new content for almost 2 hours and I never got anything, no transmission, no map marker, nothing.

You should be able to play it without being connected, but you do need to restart the game. You should see a note in your HUD color saying that additional content is being loaded before you hit start. After about 5 minutes of actual game time passing you should get a new radio signal you can tune into. Tuning into that signal launches the quest and gives you a marker for Bailey's crossing. Waiting time and travel time doesn't seem to matter, you have to do stuff for a few minutes. I'm guessing that either the additional content didn't load from no restart, or that you make have missed the notice about the new radio signal, since you played for a while. Please let the thread know how it worked out.--DoubleGrande 03:56, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

For starters I'm playing fo3 on an x-box 360, with the latest patches. I have downloaded operation anchorage, the pitt, and broken steel. While the latter 2 are the best, since I have downloaded broken steel I have been unable to play operation anchorage. When creating new characters both the pitt and broken steel will "load" (I get Wernher's Distress Signal and a notification the broken steel has been loaded) after I exit vault 101, but operation anchorage will not. I do not receive a signal no matter how long I wait or where I go. I have been patient (waiting and playing for over 3 hours with new characters) but still no signal. I have deleted and re-downloaded operation anchorage and this has still not fixed the problem. This is the best forum I've seen on the issue (and believe me I've looked around ALOT) and I was hoping that SOMEONE who helps out on the fallout wiki would know more. I've tried the solutions recommened by microsoft support, with the exception of deleting ALL my fo3 content (which is BS just to be able to play a single DLC). Someone help!!! --LungCancer420 22:30, 24 July 2009
