Forum:Starting a game

I just bought the Fallout 3 Game of year edition. I'm starting a game, and the only thing I know about it, is I'm gonna be evil. I played it before but it was over 2 years ago. I borrowed it and had to give it back, never played add ons, untill now. The only thing I remember is that the Lincoln Repeater is my favorite gun. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had any advice for an evil character, and if I should blow up Megaton? Thanks.Pappy002 01:43, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

you should blow up megaton kill anyone who gets in your way get jericho as a follower before blowing up megaton if you buy something pick pocket your money back kill the outcasts after the weapons cache from operation anchorage is open get the contract killer perk kill every good character you see and in broken steel nuke the citadel and kill every brotherhood of steel guy you see. i'm also going to make an evil enclave special forces ninja for my evil character. any name suggestions?--75.223.27.8 02:07, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Call him Shadow Whisperer. Actually I was reading about the quest, and I decided to disarm it. I'd rather have my house here than Tenpenny Tower, or whatever its called, I remember that place now, and at least in Megaton, there is only one load screen. Too much loading to enter the building, the elevator, and then the house.Pappy002 03:39, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

shadow whisperer i like it! and yeah tenpenny has way to many loading screens and people's faces i want to wear as hats or shady sands shuffle em.--75.214.184.29 13:43, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

What would be an ideal level to start doing the add ons? Pappy002 23:12, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

dont think it makes a difference, i do them once i reach citidel, after the purifier is taken by enclave. NegativeCreep 10:13, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

well my first play through i ran to help the outcasts and did the rest post main story but any level for all except mothership zeta. it's the last one and you should do it at lv. 30--75.214.157.52 02:51, April 30, 2011 (UTC)

If I leave Point Lookout, and go back to the wasteland, can I go back to Point Lookout, or any other add ons for that matter? Pappy002 01:56, May 1, 2011 (UTC) Also, in the Arlington Library, there is a box, it says "Restoration Supplies". Is that for a quest or something special, or is it just random stuff? I tried looking it up, but I couldn't find anything on it.Pappy002 02:05, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

yes you can go back to point lookout the pitt and even some rooms in the mothership just make sure you do everything in mothership zeta. and i have no clue about arlington library--75.223.83.10 04:47, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

its part of 'Stealing Independence', you take those supplies to button gwinett if you dont pass his speech check, he uses them to make a copy of the declaration. NegativeCreep 17:32, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Contrac killer is good, Ive done evil play throughs and exploited the cap and karma bonus. Steal alot to, even if you dont need it cuss that keeps your karma low. All of the the DLC's have negative karma options to so you can do those also.Birchman34 14:03, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Is there any other Gauss rifles other than the one from op anchorage? If not, is there any weapons I can use to repair it? Is it cheating using winterized power armor? I love how it never degrades, and I have the Ghoul from underworld as my companion, and I gave him Enclave hellfire armor, he's like 7 feet tall, and one bad ass mofo. I like him WAY better than Jericho. But the dog is annoying, he traps me in my bedroom, and small pathways all the time. But in battle, he's awesome, he draws the majority of attacks, leaving me free from getting hurt and using up my stims. He must have a very high threshold, or whatever its called in this game, and tons of hit points for a dog. One more thing, why are ferel Ghoul reavers so damned hard to kill? I can understand the mutant overlords, but not the scrawny ghoul reaver.Pappy002 02:02, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

no freaking way on my normal fo3 charon is my companion with hellfire armor. and dogmeat has a health of 15000. and the reavers are bethesda's idea of a tough enemy with no explanation as to why they couldn't think of anything so they gave a ghoul 1100 health. but there still not as stupid as obsidian releasing a game with major glitch's like the one i found this morning where it says this game relies on dlc that's no longer available load anyway? [i don't have dlc so yes] the storage device is no longer located load canceled. then it went back to main menu so i lose 70 hours of gameplay because obsidian wanted to make more money for a near christmas release instead of making a game that you know works! i hope everyone at obsidian knows they suck they should all lose there jobs. and i searched this error message tons of people are having this problem and there doing nothing to make it right! there working on dlc's for a game so broken you can't play it! you people should be ashamed of yourself's leave the game's too bethesda and you make some small game that takes two hours to beat though knowing you that probably won't work either. and here's some advice make sure your game is absolutly ready with no problems take gearas of war three for example it was supposed to come out in april but epic games pushed it back to september 20th to just polish the game making sure it would be perfect for release day they have a beta that's going on right now for people to report bugs! you can't rush greatness when you try too your games will suck! and continue games after the ending people like that.--75.241.51.237 03:40, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

Are you saying that you wouldn't use the guy with hellfire armor? Fallout 3 did that to you? That's pretty f...ed up, I don't blame you for being mad. I think it was just a rare, possibly one time glitch. What about my Gauss rifle question, can you help me out with that? Pappy002 04:29, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

mo new vegas did that to me but if i don't get a working patch on a disc for my xbox there will be hell to pay. charon in hellfire armor is a great idea. the only gauss rifle is in op. anchorage and it can only be repaired by merchents. and no it's not cheating using winterized armor it's bethesda's fault for putting 10 hp armor in the game not yours.--75.241.42.21 22:58, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

I beat new Vegas 4 times, and never experienced that problem. I don't have any of the patches, just what comes on the disk. But like I said, I think its just a one time, random glitch. I was just kidding about wearing the armor being cheating. If they give you a weapon, you should be able to repair it with some other weapon like a laser or plasma rifle, or something. But thanks anyways, I hope your next game won't mess up on you.Pappy002 00:53, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

thanks that really means something i'm at new vegas now but still 64 hours left to recover i just have the disc too. i'll half to call and yell at bethesda tomorrow to send me a patch on a disc.--75.223.184.237 05:55, May 9, 2011 (UTC)
