Forum:Thoughts and musings.

''These musings and thoughts are basically for the first timers playing this game. Any other thoughts and that you would like to add feel free.''

1. Use the nuke powered wrecked cars, trucks and buses to your advantage. It takes 3 or 4 shots to blow them up. It may take 10-12 rounds to kill a mutant or a giant radscorpion. Lead them to the car shoot it till it lights and run. It should either kill or maim your enemy (you as well...run forest run!!)

2. Search everything whether it says empty or not. I have found caps and ammo in things marked empty.

3. Be friendly then strike. More flies with honey than vinegar.

4. You should get the survivor perks first. Anything that cuts radiation, helps you get around, and so on should be your first picks.

5. Pick up anything that looks of value. Work with the scavengers and remember where you have seen them. Always BUY ammo.

6. When using the nailboard and the sledgehammers stay close to your intended target and keep swinging.

7. Use crouch when moving around the cities and towns. Move slowly when radscorpions are around or stop all together.

8. If it doesn't attack you do not attack it (unless of course you decided to be a bad guy)
