    Feral ghouls: plausible or not?

    I'm trying to use "Science!" to explain it, not so much actual factual real life anatomy to justify it, as Fallout isn't restricted to the laws of reality.

    Fallout 3 reviews, hype, thoughts?

    From what I've seen so far Repair is there to keep your weapons' max damage up, or your armor's damage reduction up. Best example I can come up with is the Railroad Rifle. In bad condition it gets about low 30s damge, best condition it can get mid 40s damage. The difference that makes is good...

    Funniest moment in FO3? SPOILERS

    I'd say: - Crawling around the Science museum, I decappitated a super mutant from range, and its body stayed standing for a few seconds teetering around blood still spurting out, then just crumpled to the ground. Kinda wish I snagged a sceenie of it. - The conversation with Robo Button...

    Feral ghouls: plausible or not?

    From the time and bullets I've put into Feral Ghouls, they're not stronger or faster than any human I've shot in game. In fact they're weaker than humans on average. I can usually put a Feral Ghoul down with a bullet or two from the silenced 10mm detected, where it would take 2-4 for a human...

    Dark Humor and Bethesdas Take on It

    Additionally: - The Lincoln Collectibles: I want that little statue. - Tin Can on the Can: In the RobCo building, in one of the restrooms you'll see a dead protectron sitting on a toilet. - Just Another Reason Not To: I forget specifically where, but there's a skeleton face down in a...

    The brother hood of Steel in FO3

    The long story short is that human nature allows for such deviance to occur. Sometimes isolating distance causes people to turn selfish, sometimes it causes people to be more benevolent. The BOS is not a bunch of brainwashed droids unable to even comprehend thoughts that don't pertain to their...

    Imagination - The cornerstone of Fallout's Universe.

    As someone who both enjoys this game and believes it to be a worthy successor to the Fallout series, Fallout 3's excellence is still up for debate. And from what I've seen so far playing the game, some of the points people make here on gameplay are valid.

    The brother hood of Steel in FO3

    My take on the new BOS incarnation: The DC BOS is a case example of how distance from civilization will cause variations in interpretations of accepted and dictated behavior. Taking the settings of both Fallout: Tactics and Fallout 3, the theme of the eastern part of post-apocalyptic USA is...

    Dark Humor and Bethesdas Take on It

    If you explore the space rocket exhibit a little, you'll notice not only does it have Captain Bell's space suit on display, but also Captain Bell.

    Gripes about the writing

    It's not brain numbingly terrible, but the dialogue writing does not have much of the unique characterization that the past Fallout games had. As I've said on the official boards, none of the dialogue I've encountered so far comes close to Set's "Happy Tummy" bit.

    I suddenly feel inspired to find a new water hole and beat someone to death with a femur bone.

    Falloutdict.txt - Clues to downloadable content or random?

    Re: Falloutdict.txt - Clues to downloadable content or rando I knew I saw that Gundam spinoff episode! Or was it a Yu-Gi-Oh spinoff?

    But was the spirit preserved?

    I don't think they're terrible writers, but the honestly my one big complaint about FO3 so far is the dialogue, in the sense that it's missing a lot of character the other Fallout titles had, so far while they're all unique people, most of the characters with the exception of 3 Dog, Moira, and...

    Did you all forget..

    Right, it's explained in the BOS Vault Diary on the main Fallout website. Some DC BOS soldiers felt that the Arthurian role was the right thing to do, and some felt that it was a violation of the core BOS mandate. Hence the divison. It serves as a reminder that the DC BOS is not the norm...

    When did they find the time? (fallout 3)

    That just what the West Coast BOS did, the more eastern BOS factions are a little/lot more local interactive. Besides, nothing reinforces the hazards of a minefield than a sign planted nearby saying "MINEFIELD!" You can be briefed on it, you can be warned about it, but you'll never really...

    When did they find the time? (fallout 3)

    Not saying the DC BOS would do it specifically for the locals, they'd mark it off for their own purposes. It would just incedentally assist the locals. Then again this is the DC BOS who are looking after the locals far more than other BOS factions, so either way could be understandable.

    An objective review

    Indeed, I'd prefer them to either use a bigger gun or mash me with enlarged fists.

    Small silly things

    It's not too far fetched. Is the conversation dialogue a bit simple and abrubt? Yes, thatI'll agree with.
