Forum:Unmarked spots in FO3

--

Yo, perhaps this has been done before, but I'm still curious to know if any of you have stumbled across any particular spots that are unmarked on the Capital Wasteland map, and have no apparent relevance to anything at all. (or at least we don't think so). I'm not talking so much about hidden content, but something deliberately placed, just to make the gamer wonder. Surely all you Elder Scroll players know what I'm talking about, haha. But do share... Happy Gamming Xdarkdragonx 01:58, 24 April 2009 (UTC) Dragon

Well, the Roach King is a funny occurrence that I always take a look at on every save. Apart from that, maybe the Wasteland Gypsy Village and the skeleton in the bathtub with a toaster. AngryNorwegianDude 06:05, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, there's a whole lot of them.--OfficerBlue 06:09, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I always manage to get myself to the crater with Alien Power Cells in it next to the military truck. I never plan to go there, my character just ends up there sooner or later. 81.234.140.17 10:10, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I always dig the Abraham Lincoln shrine in the house adjacent to Arlington Cemetary, the computer that has farming info at the Hilltop Farm Ruins adjacent to Relay tower KX-B8-11 and the psycho wastelander on the loudspeaker in Seward Square(apparently you can get frag mines and mini-nukes by killing him, but I can't find a way to get a clean shot so the whole thing is useless to me...nice firework show though!)Mattm 00:37, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

The preacher in Seward Square is an easy kill, just stand next to the wastelander and you'll get your shot. Or use some stealth boys and collect everything you can in that alley. You can't get to the preacher, and even if you could, he only has a brahmin skin outfit. All the loot is down in the alley. Even if you collect all the mini nukes and other explosives in the alley, if the preacher sees you he's still gonna make a big (scripted) boom. When I killed him, i popped a nuka grenade in his room from below, and got sneak attack critical on him. Perj 12:57, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

The funniest unmarked Location I ever encountered was the truck northwest of Broadcast Tower KB5 on a Bridge. When you approach an explosion can be heard and a scientist is flying out of the trailer. 217.85.250.136 13:20, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

There's a pretty bizarre spot behind the Takoma Industrial Park, that has a funny back story along with some interesting loot and some Feral Ghouls to kill. Despite minor radiation around the whole area; I'd say it's worth going to. Xdarkdragonx 20:45, 25 April 2009 (UTC) Dragon

Well, let's see. Easter Eggs: The guy with the toaster... no, that's already mentioned. The Titanic impression, down in Sewer (metro). What else...the teddy bears in Sewer Waystation. The obelisk in Dunwich. The hidden Samuel the Glowing One. The car with two skeletons on top of each other, in an obvious position, on a car hood. Can't remember exactly where I found this one. Might have been at F.Scott campground overlook, or some other overlook elsewhere. The Protectron on the toilet with scrap metal under it in Robco facility. Bunch of chain reaction explosions that can be started in Takoma Park, Collapsed Car Tunnel and Overlook Drive In. The sattelite nukes at Satcon 03. The plunger room of death. Golden Ribbon grocer. There's plenty more, these are just what I could remember right now. Perj 11:44, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

There are two places that stand out for unexpected lethality -- the grenade traps east of Farragut West station, and the Talon Company outpust to the southeast of the Arlington Library. There's also an outhouse built in the middle of nowhere on top of a pool of toxic waste -- doesn't seem like a healthy place to take a dump... DreadPirateMurphy 16:06, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

The two that absolutely crack me up are the Plunger Room and the Gnomish Kidnapper in the Presidential Metro (there's a Gnome standing next to a camera by the tracks, and down on the tracks there are two Teddy Bears tied to one of the rails with a very small sign that says "help us" between them). Outside of those two, I really like it when I find one of the random chess scenes (i.e. a Gnome and a Teddy Bear sitting on opposite ends of a chess board with milk bottles and empty bottles being used as chess pieces, or the chessboard in one of the relay stations with a dozen miniature garden gnomes on it). I also really like the funky mannequins in Raider camps (like there's one in The Pitt with a mohawk made of pencils, and another that I think is in Evergreen Mills that has had certain portions of its anatomy replaced with giant red lights), or those times when you find stuff stacked into towers (for instance, in the Olney Powerworks on one of the desks there's a "house of cards" made of Metro Tickets with a Nuka Cola on top).

I forgot where i saw this, but there was a skeloton what some pre war money and a camra...with the camra looking into a bathroom stall...creepy. Sidkid123 04:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

I like the smiley face made out of pencils on the front desk of the museum of history,the electron charge pack toilet trap in the national archives, and the teddy bear with the shot glass with whiskey and a cigarret.Scrubsfan06 02:53, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

i have very faint memories of this randomn guy sat in this cool looking rocket chair in the middle of nowhere he attacked so i killed him the strange thing was he was named something like "king of the wastelands" i was like wtf EDIT:it was the roach king--Hellfire soldier 10:33, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

i was a building(cant remember where) and in one of the bathrooms there was a protecteron sat on the toilet when i moved it there was some scrap metal underneath in the toilet bowl.Metro racer *This has already been mentioned and you should sign your edits*

I just stumbled across a wrecked train West-Southwest of Gold Ribbon Grocery with two Super Mutants and a Giant Radscorpion outside of it. Further inspection of the train revealed a shopping cart fashioned into a cage holding a Teddy Bear hostage. When I opened to cage a Behemoth spawned and attacked.Sleep E 18:30, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

In a teddy bear factory (can't remember where) there is a conveyerbelt with a teddy giving another teddy a blowjob--Con230 09:52, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

I dont' remember exaatly where on the ship, but in a far back corner of MZ there is a teddy and a garden gnome with a bottle of vodka and 2 shot glasses watching TV.JiNX Bloodfang 10:01, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
