Things we learned from Fallout 3

605: It's completely possible for a handful of scavengers to create a working settlement made completely out of scrapmetal without any industrial tools.

Seriously, how the hell did they ever manage to build megaton? That place should not exist.

604: It takes specialized training to wear power armor but any ol wasteland tinkerer can fix them

Never underestimate the power of duct tape :P
 
^ LMFAO!!!

606: For no apparant reason, some dumbass decided it would be fun to collect all of the .44 magnums, attach a scope, and then spread them across the wastes, making them annoying as hell to use for close combat.

607: It is possible for a human to fight H2H with a Deathclaw--and win!

608: Crabs kill :D

Well, you might do that even in FO 1. Hit the eye and pray. I believe (but I'm not sure, I'm only sure it was a critical strike to the eye, but might have been with a ranged weapon) I killed my first deathclaw, the one on the cave, that way.
 
609: Despite the world being in ruins, it is still possible to trek Pacific Ocean, like Tenpenny and Desmond did (I know you use tanker to get to Enclave Oil Rig in FO2, but at least it was located a few miles from the coast)
610: Your radioactivity proof buddies won't enter the irradiated chamber instead of you, because you must complete a fucked up parable of sacrificing yourself to the others like your retarded father. Unless you installed Broken Steel, which allows you...
611: ...to be back to living after turning into green goo. Oh, Brotherhood and their technology. They could at least change the pic in final cutscene so there's a body lying on the ground, not a radioactive pool.
612: Fawkes has an infinite ammo for his Gatling Laser. You guys just broke through Enclave's patrol, ten supermutants, a dozen of raiders, a family of Mirelurks and a Behemoth, you're outside the city when you're attacked by a vicious Molerat. Fuck you, Molerat, taste my Gatling Laser I've shot over 9000 times 30 minutes ago. "Now! Stand! Still!"
613: Enclave's are pussies. Mutants are pussies. Deathclaws are pussies. Mirelurks are more dangerous threat to you as they've got awesomely hard natural armor.
 
614: Behemoths, a breed of supermutant the size of a building, are weaker than Reavers, a species of ghoul (man-sized) that can solo 3 sentry bots.

This is completely realistic and fair :roll:

Well, clearly they watched Pirates of the Caribbean and used sea turtles as rafts. :lol:

Don't forget human hair. That's how he lashed the turtles together.
 
615: If you shoot a deathclaw with a dart, it will suddenly shoot MILES into the sky, only to come crashing down in front of you a few hours later, perfectly healthy and ready to kill you.
 
True story of a bug I had with a Deathclaw at the mountains to the north. I swear! The effing thing charged me once it landed (and saw me). And before you ask, I KNOW it was the same one because I watched it fall from the sky! Only one thought entered my mind: W T F

Good times.

I like when you enter a map and all the items and shit were apparently floating because you hear hundreds of clattering sounds for the second or two after the map loads.
 
Yeah, that happens to me ALL the time. That happened to a shack I was using for a house once--reminded me of a friggin poltergeist or something!

616: You can make someone explode simply by PUNCHING them. COOL!!!

wait what?
Yeah. It's actually a rather well-known bug. Something about Deathclaws in the game and not being programmed to "favor" gravity. The tiniest things seemed to shoot them up into the sky, but they wouldn't receive any damage on the way down.

That should be arranged in the form of another "Things we Learn from FO3" list. =)

And on that note...

617: No matter what twist of fate befalls you (if people around you should die the most horrific way possible), or if you simply, manually, directly TRIED to slice them in half, human beings have evolved to develop torsos impervious to any and all damage! Explosions will do no more than tear off the limbs, but the torso will remain perfectly intact. The wonders of radiation... SCIENCE!
 
618. Hobos Are pretty picky and will only ONLY drink Purified Water, even the FEV-free Aqua Pura will make them commit suicide.

And that is why the Infernal Engine is better than Gamebryo.
With that you can bisect torsos ^^.
Though come think of it, just about any engine is better than Gamebryo.

619: Despite the presence of large groups roving Super mutants and Raiders, its still possible to live in a poorly defended settlement, such as Rivet City or that town with the vampires...you get the point.

Reminds me: I was trying to enslave arkansas and I decide to sneak around to the back of town to sneak up on him better. On the way there's a cliff you can watch him from and on this cliff had spawned a cranky scavenger being overprotective of a robot he just killed. Whatevs, I pass him and slowly sneak up on the sniper, a 30 minute ordeal. When I arrived on the floor below him I hear a huge crash back the way I came and about 20 seconds later I see what could only be the scavenger's robot flying across the sky to the south.
