most newbie-thing done on fallout

Oh yeah, and something like the first time I played Fallout and I went to Vault 15, Ian killed me. You see, I tried to grab the ammo that was lying in the chill-out room (whatever it's called) on the third level. But Ian stayed close to me and blocked the way. I told him to go to a longer distance but he didn't move. So I tried attacking him with my 10mm pistol and no armour... I still hate him for killing me back then... :(

Now every time I get caught stealing stuff from people and they start combat, I just attack Ian and then quick load the game again :P.

But really, that's just a real mean thing to do, poor Ian :lol:

I think Ian has long ago since established his reputation as a character that deserves anything and everything you could possibly think of doing to/with him. Unless it's something good or polite. :wink:
 
For me, Ian is just a mule and a way to get rid of frustrated feelings... hey Ian! Catch my .223 round will ya!
 
"I'm sorry Ian, but I used all the 50 Rad-X's we had on myself... now if you don't mind, I'm gonna read some books and maybe play chess with this computer a couple of times... Btw, why do they call this the Glow?"

New idea for a topic: Most original way to get back to Ian for literally shooting you in the back so many times...
 
I did not notice when I leveled up either, it's great when you click it for the first time and can see that you have a lots of points to spend!

But for me it took a long time before I learned how to enter cities, I thought it was very difficult.

Done a thing quite similar.
I left the worldmap and stood right in the middle of the desert, with no idea how to come back to the worldmap again.
The same thing as I finished all Junktown missions and couldn't manage to leave the town. I just never recognized the gray (or brown) area 'cause my screen was adjusted a few points to dark.:roll: After that i read the manual and understood.
 
the most newbie thing i think i have done is running out of time bacuse i went off in search of glowing water......that dude in shadysands said it was out there...... :wink:
 
I join the slavers.
I slept with mrs. Bishop and forget to save before doing it.
I killed a child and got bounty hunters after me.
 
I got stuck in the Bishops with a leather jacket after I barely got out of the Salvatores alive. With a 10mm. Needless to say, I got my ass kicked.

I made the HUGE mistake of giving Marcus grenades.
 
The most newbie thing I did in Fallout:

I worried too much.

"Hmm... This Necropolis place and it's ghouls sound difficult..."
"Oh my god! A deathclaw! I'm gonna die!"
"The Master is going to be so tough..."

Psyched myself right out for a while.
 
Well, noobiest thing, I guess, is that I didn't realize I could "repair" the force fields. Lots of stimpacks.

Judging from many of the replies in this thread, I just got to say: RTFM!!!
 
Well, the n00best thing I did was when I played Fo1 for the first time. Of course I was to eager to start the game I didn't bother to make a char and took that cool russian chick (she has nice stats, you have to admit). On my way to Shady Sands I got attacked by a radscorpion. After emptying my 10mm and getting hurt pretty badly I attacked it with a... flare. Though that fire will scare him away.
Well, I could say that the game isn't very realistic, but...
the flare wasn't even lit.

(this reminds me - anyone of you used the flare to illuminate a dark place to reduce the modifier while shooting?)

At least I then had the occasion to make my own char.

The second n00best thing was going to Junktown with a rifle in my hands. The guards told me to holster my weapons, so I though "WTF, they are ordering ME to do somethin'?" and decided to scare them a bit. So I changed hands (I had a frag in the other) and - suprise! - the guards attacked me. I though they were mean sobs so I killed them all and took their stuff. But, as a result, I didn't explore the town further than the gate and thus I didn't know that Junktown is such a interresting location untill I played the game for the second time.

And when people told me that the Water Merchants controled the water reserves of the Hub and were very mean jerks, I decided to kill them. And after doing so I was highly suprised that the city guards are attacking me.

Well, what can I say - I played very emotionaly for the first time.

Howgh.

After getting busted for stealing in junktown, i got put in jail for the night :twisted: . Not knowing about the rest feature i lockpicked my way out and got blasted by the guards.

I also took the "can you repeat that, this time into my coat pocket?", I then wasted gizmo and his goon with a hunting rifle, and then got kicked out of junkown !!!!!
:evil:
Damn those junktown fiends !!!
 
I went to the Glow but left my buddies behind at the BOS bunker. Didn't wanna have to spend my Rad-Away's en Rad-X's on them. I ended up having to leave more then half of the stuff behind... Ah well, I found out Dogmeat still rocks. He killed like 10% of the Security Bots. Good Doggie... :)

I was connvinced that is was a bug when the BOS guy's diden't enter the base, it was a bug, so I re-installed the game...
 
never saw the beam to get into the west tec facility, so in my desparation for power armor i spent an entire day dedicated to wasting cabbot&darrel the two brotherhood gaurds at the entrance with a shotgun&metal armor&i knew nothing of combat tactics.so pretty much saving after every action point spent.a million reloads later i was finally triumphant...&there was no f**kin armor on thier corpses,i almost cried.
 
You can't get people's armor when you kill them. I tried. It's only happened to me twice (Once in F2 and in the Boneyard. I had SO many Metal armors in there.)
