Forum:Do enemies respawn at all?

I've been playing on the 360 and noticed that enemies don't seem to respawn at all. After clearing out Superduper Mart and going back for the first time in several game days, nothing seems to have changed at all. Other locations exebit the same results. Tell me PLEASE that eventially the bad guys respawn after a while like in Oblivion. If so, how long does it take.

I believe there are only a few locations that actually have respawnable enemies. I've read about it, but i forgot where i found this information. It also said that you have to sleep for 72 game hours for them to respawn. Key locations, like Jefferson Memorial and, in my case, Paradise Falls, dont respawn at all though.

-For me Raiders respawn after a few days. I learned that the hard way by fast traveling to a location that had a lot of raiders and they were all respawned and gunning for me.

I wrote a page (Fallout 3 power leveling) addressing the respawn issue, even included locations of many respawning camps. Enjoy. --AshRandom 03:00, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

PLAYING FALLOUT 3 UN-PATCHED AND UN-MODIFIED FOR THE XBOX 360. FOR THE LAST SEVEN HOURS I HAVE BEEN KILLING RAIDERS THAT KEEP RE-SPAWNING AT THE ENTRANCE TO FAIRFAX RUINS!!! I HOPE IT WORKS FOR YOU LIKE IT IS FOR ME. OH! AND I SHOULD PROBABLY MENTION THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW QUICKLY THEY RETURN, BECAUSE I LOAD UP ON ITEMS AND GO SELL THEM. I ALWAYS END UP WAITING THREE DAYS SO THAT HAG AT THE SHOP CAN GET MORE CAPS. BUT, SO FAR, EVERY TIME I HAVE GONE BACK, THEY HAVE BEEN THERE WAITING. GOOD LUCK.

it takes 72 hours (3 days) in game time so you can sleep for a while then go back and kill P.S you can put mines next to their dead bodies and when they respawn you can just get xp when they blow up Paperbagguy3 17:26, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

Using the mine technique as Paperbagguy said is also a good way to easily harvest XP. CatSoup 02:55, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

To you writing in ALL CAPS: it's not necessary to wait for Moria to get more caps, you can also sell items to the lady that has the food stand down by the bomb.
