Forum:Pimping Houses in Fallout 3

Pimping Houses... anybody else into this???
From the first days of playing Oblivion, to the days I moved on to play Fallout 3, I have done one thing every time.... I collect items and use them to decorate houses. I've looked through countless videos on youtube, and it kinda seems like nowbody really takes the time and patience to decorate houses like I do. I love collecting Rare items and showing them off in my house. The first house I ever "pimped" was GNR (Galaxy News Radio). I thought it was dumb that you could only pick from 2 different houses in Fallout 3. I mean Oblivion has a bunch to choose from, so I thought whats stopping me from going out into the waste and finding a house. Well I soon found you cant just take any house, you have to be smart... obviously you cant stay in a house if: owned by another person, unless you can legally sleep in beds there, or store items in lockers or crates or if Monsters spawn inside. So thats when I discovered GNR, a place were you can keep your stuff without any problems. So after countless hours of gameplay, I had ALOT!!! of stuff....so thats when I started decorating. My GNR was pretty cool.... I did alot of stuff to it, but after Point Lookout came out, I found Blackhall Manor. Now with this mansion, I am in heaven.... So my question to all of you is, Have any of you made houses in other places besides GNR and Blackhall??? It seems to me not many people know what pimping houses is.... so if any of you have questions feel free to ask me. Thankyou

Hell yeah dude, I've pimped out the Outcast Outpost, the Megaton House (several times) and the Arlington Cemetery House. I thought the Arlington House was amazing, until I got so much crap I moved into the Outcast Outpost. It's my little slice of heaven.

I got all my guns in the armory, a bunch of armor and other clothes in the gun cabinets, a huge Teddy Bear from Red Racer Factory in the simulation pod. I also threw some Bio-Gas Canisters in the entrance room, so it's all wavy and cool looking 8-). It's really cool and I like the elevator too, it's just icing on the cake :). 67.174.95.30 01:35, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

The teddy bear in the Red Racer Factory is actually only the second largest bear in the game. The biggest is located in: SatCom Array NN-03d. you find it behind a room thats been boarded up... you have to use about 20 frag mines to blow it out from behind the wall, but its totally worth it once you get it.

The houses in Minefield (Zane House, Gibson House, and the other two) are very good player housing. You have to kill/enslave Arkansas and disarm all the frag mines first though. Telos 06:22, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

This is what the GECK is for children. Not only do I have a weapons display, but I have a nuka cola 'fridge, an enclave chair that I call the Captains Chair, a Nuka Cla Drinkin' Stool, posters, banners, chalkboards, plants, office supplies, giant nuka cola bottle, rugs, chairs, desks, vault bed, wall TV, a custom content computer, reconfigured bedroom, a couch, expanded house amenities, tdle markers, and other activities for NPCs.

I would love to create things from scratch and or put anything anywhere I want, but I play on Xbox. But if anything, I think pimping a house without the geck, shows how much time you've put into the game and is 100% legit.

I've been using the Sewer Waystation as my home. If you go a little ways into the sewers you can find a "normal" ghoul living amongst all the ferals. He has a bunch of nuka cola stuff and a fridge full of meat he also has a closet right next to his home that has every schematic item you need. It's a great house for an evil character and it's really fun to make it look like you're a canibal by leaving mutliated body parts around the house. I also play on the 360 and wish my crappy computer could run Fallout 3.

I live in the National Guard Depot. My own armory and shooting range, and theres lots of shelving. Perfection. Knight Captain Ski (radio) 01:12, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

I once pimped out the sniper spot at the end of the suspension bridge in The Pitt. Really cool to. Got to snipe mole-rats and vicious dogs with my gauss rifle. I also use Sniper Shack as my house right now.Lord Vontavious 15:40, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Right now I'm using SIlver's house in Springvale. I threw her corpse on the dining room table and surrounded it with various bottles of alcohol. I use the back room as weapons and Raider gear storage, as well as any misc. junk I come across such as cameras and water bottles. My Tenpenny suite is still pretty bare, with only a few cartons of cigarettes, purified water, and various foods on the shelves.

My last playthrough I had a bunch of Power Armor laid up against the walls (they don't fit in shelves) and their helmets on the railing, with a bunch of perfect condition laser rifles, missile launchers, and assault rifles next to a 'powered down' Godfrey. I tried building a pyramid out of frag mines but it wasn't worth the hassle or the time. HBS75.69.104.65 08:20, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

One of my houses had a Nuka-Cola fridge with which I filled nothing but Deathclaw Hands. Another had the helmet of every single Enclave soldier I'd ever killed sprawled all around the house. My best and most recent is converting the spare room of the Megaton House into a Gnome lounge which is home to every one of the game's gnomes, in addition to innumerous packs of cigarettes and bottles of hooch.

I use the cabin on Mothership Zeta. Its got an amazing view and below the command center is an awesome sleeping quarters and I put the giant teddy bear in the Stasis Pod next to the transporter. And the best part are the friendlies. I forgot the names but the soldier and the little girl stay there forever and give you stuff. It kicks ass. And btw Butcher Pete, thats exactly what I do with the garden gnomes lol. Sundance15 04:05, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

The first house i ever pimped was some clothes store in balmora in morrowind, i killed the dude and took it. Ive pimped my Megaton house pretty well, i have all the tedyys on my bed including the king and queen of all teddys. I also have like a 30 gnome army. The spare room is where I keep helmet trophies and downstairs is all weapons and my Lincoln collection.

i have a collection of nuka-cola quantums (its like 13 or more)

I have decorated the Megaton and Tenpenny houses, GNR, Super Duper Mart, Blackhall Manor, Outcast Outpost, Engineering Core, and currently live in Arlington House.--With care and happiness, Supermutantslayer450' ROAR 05:36, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

This time around i decided to place every nuke-cola i could find in the kitchen of the megaton house. Im at like 125 so far. all standing up like a little army of bottles. Im also getting one of every weapon in the game that i can. The Lone Kobold 15:16, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Has anyone ever pimped the OUTSIDE of a house. I turned Silver's house in Springvale into a bunker with grabbable not take/loot-able metal garbage cans and stacked tires. I wish we X360 users could screenshot.

Hello shrine builders. I come in peace. Have any of you noticed the creepyness potentiol of the Springvale School classroom? As if it wasn't already a little weird there are skeletons in a cage right outside that can be dragged in as well as any raider bodies in that cell (as in loading section not cage) Plus sometimes the bodies will dissapear but reapear when grabbed. I made a shrine to Nuka-Cola Quantum and whenever I tell the game to drag the skeleton (you dont actually have to move it) the body appears in a most creepy manner. May I suggest putting it near the lamp(not movable) :( 75.210.153.120 21:49, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
