Forum:Living in Fallout 3

Am I the only one that would love to live in the Fallout 3 world. I mean, I know that there would be many dangers, but I would love to put my determination and wit to the test. I'm not saying that I'm a survival guru, but I've studied survival and have kits prepared for nuclear warfare. Theres just something about not having a government that is so appealing to me. Call me crazy, but I would love to live in the Fallout 3 world. Please share your thoughts.Optimist of the Waste 02:07, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * You'd die alone in the wastes early in your life or live a miserable existence in one of the shantytowns without ever venturing outside of it. Or you'd be a slave in the Pitt. Fallout 3 paints a false image of living in a post-apocalyptic world - it's not heroic at all. Stimpaks won't heal you instantly or repair broken limbs, one bullet is enough to severely wound you and radiation isn't just a ticking number you can easily get down - you'd be killed in the first firefight. Having no government isn't fun - it means anyone can kill you out there without any consequences. http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 06:09, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * It means you can kill anyone without consequences too and if you get enough suplies in the first place, you can survive. I'd rather live in FO3 world. I'm in for the anarchy.Ketija998 11:54, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * What makes you, any of you, think you'd be heroic inhabitants of the wates, instead of commoners? In Falout 1, 2 and 3 the protagonists are extremely rare individuals that have heroic qualities. Everyone else is pretty much a commoner. What makes you think you'd be any different? http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 13:34, May 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * I actually never once said that I'd be the hero of the wastes. I would, though, live a life my own, without consequences, I would build my own settlement. But I would be someone. I would not be on a serious expedition either, and I wouldn't carry a minigun because thats not my thing.Optimist of the Waste 13:43, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * You'd be killed within the first year. Sad but true. http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 15:42, May 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * You also have to rember that in fallout 3 you can carry hundreds of pounds of equipment. You try carrying a minigun a hunting rifle an assault rifle and enough water and food for a serious expedition + any armour and i'd love to hear how you get on. The Lord CaitSith 12:29, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

I wouldn't be commoner because people hate me and I hate them. And no hero thing, I would just loot some stuff and hole up in some old house. Also, even in game I carried only my plasma rifle and smg for backup.no minigun.
 * You can't survive without other people. You get an infection and run out of meds, you die. You run out of bullets and can't cast them, you die. You run out of food and can't grow any, you die. You run out of water and don't know how to get it, you die. You get a nasty stomach ache and can't help it, you die. The wasteland is incredibly hostile. http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 13:25, May 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yar to that. People manage to get lost and die in the wilderness in good ol' pre-war America. Camping in the desert? It blows. Even with all the cozy shit. Completely remove any sort of rescue squads, motor transportation, reliable food and water sources, throw in the giant chameleons and psycho cannibal raiders, and you're pretty much lucky if you don't die even if you do have a community.

 * How 'bout's a waistland Canibal cook book ? No, Now You die for my sins ! I am Saint Pain, Have fun with it y'all 23:12, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Did anyone else not know what the crap the guy above me was saying?68.54.5.104 07:50, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * No way am I living there, but if I did I may have to consider being a raider. Then again they kill each other and even if your good enough to live, they will eventually kick you out like they did Jericho. Living out on your own is possible, but very hard. A populated, functioning Vault would be nice, but rare. Really is no way to win. My only chance is to get rich and hide in Tenpenny Tower. Of course, we all know things can go wrong there.Vault Master 15:59, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
 *  Guide To Surviving The Capital Wasteland 
 * Don't go on a quest to save you're father.
 * Don't leave a vault if you manage to get in one.
 * Focus on food, water, shelter, and a nice 10mm.
 * Food should be procured by finding and killing a radroach or if you're suicidal a mole rat and cooking it's meat.
 * Water is available by sneaking into Megaton, Big Town, or Tenpenny Tower.
 * Shelter is available in Springvale, Tenpenny Tower, and Big Town.
 * Guns and ammunition should be sought out in abandoned raider bases or dead raiders.
 * Stay hidden. If they can't see you don't let that change unless you can kill them the moment you're detected.
 * Metro's, Factory's, and the D.C area are all bad places.
 * If you see people arguing or fighting let them kill each other.
 * Melle weapons should only be used in emergencies, the farther away you are the better.
 * If you are confronted by an immenent problem (eg. Incoming raiders) leave the area and put distance between yourself and the problem.
 * If you're being stalked by an enemy you can defeat in a suprise attack then hide until they catch up and ambush them.
 * Super Mutants are some of the wasteland's masters. If you are seen by them run to the Citadel or Megaton.
 * The Brotherhood of Steel and thier outcasts are assets, not enemies. Lure you enemies toward them so they can do your work for you.
 * The Enclave is bad. No way around it. The president is a computer so you should be able to infer that.
 * Thank you for reading my guide.

 * I would like living in Rivet city. apart from the possibility of red-lung, it feels cozy. i like the people's hardworking spirit, the market area, and it's about the only place that has believers of our God. Dunmer999 02:17, December 12, 2010 (UTC)
