The Place Where Fallout Purists Whine

[Gene Kiniski]

Decided to finally give this a try recently and I'm hooked. Are there any good guides for it online though? Finding some of the locations is a major pain.

Really, you didn't think of... you know, Google?

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Wiki

Really, it didn't cross you mind that maybe I had used Google for what I needed but was unable to find detailed information on it so I asked on EWB, in a gaming forum, where I could get a more personal result instead of the generic "click this link" search results?

I hope a Rad Roach eats your brains.

[Gene Kiniski]

I meant to add on to my last post a thank you to Apsham and Sean for the guides as they were better than what I was using initially.

Ruki, if that was directed at me then explain to me what the "google, google, google" post actually add to threads other than ego post?

[Gene Kiniski]

Fuck the ending to this game. Seriously.

[SeanDMan]

A lot of people said that. Hence, DLC that makes the games ending non-canon. Retcon FTW.

[Gene Kiniski]

So if I download the DLC the I continue from the chamber?

[apsham]

You'll likely have an autosave or a save from before you finished the game. If you do that, then yeah the ending will change to the new one.

This game kicks so much ass. I have the GOTY edition and have put over 120 hours into this game. I have beaten only 2 expansions (Operation Anchorage to get the awesome armor, chinese stealth suit and awesome rifle at the end) and the Broken Steel one. Still have 3 more DLC's to go and I already have all the bobbleheards, killed all the super mutant behemoths and maxed out at Lev. 30. Also did all the sidequests.

Anyone else pissed off that you can't kill the kids in Little Lamplight?

[King Ellis]

Well, I don't know if i'd want to kill ALL of them but some of them certainly need a slap.

I can't find Scribe Vallincourt anywhere in the Citadel. Where is she?

Started playing this game last week, and holy crap on a stick it's glorious. I'm only en route to the Washington Monument, but I can already tell it's going to engulf my entire life for the next few months. Which is annoying seeing as I still have Bioshock and Borderlands to get through as well as Assassin's Creed II, Bayonetta, Bioshock 2 and Final Fantasy XIII to worry about buying.

I knew getting the xbox was a bad idea, I now literally have no life and/or money. >_>

Bluuuuuuuue Moon!

[Ruki]

Game of the year? Yes, yes I might think so. For a second, I thought it was Assassin's Creed in a post apocalyptic world. And it seems like Vegas is alive and well, so yay! Let's go gamble!

[King Ellis]

Would have been my trailer of the year if they'd used the Marcels version of Blue Moon instead.

Any Fallout 2 fans notice the seeming similarities between New Reno (complete with the golgotha graveyard) and this New Vegas?

If it is even remotely similar, colour me aroused.

[SeanDMan]

I wasn't able to spot a full graveyard; to me it just seems like a few random burial markers in the desert. Sort of like the real Vegas has if you manage to leave your tour guide behind and go wandering.

I marked out like fuck for the NCR flag though.

[SeanDMan]

Rewatched it and you're right, it's a graveyard. There's a confining fence and everything.

NMA speculates that the guy at the end of the video is Tycho from FO 1. That would be insane.

[Gene Kiniski]

I never played the first or second Fallout, just the third, but I have been reading about New Vegas and it seems ridiculous. I want to see some good life form this time around though.

[SeanDMan]

..what.

[Ruki]

Now I wanna play the first and second one again. Never got TOO far in the first, and got to the last boss in the second (it glitched out on Vista for me )....
