The first monster I came across aside from mole-rats was a deathclaw standing outside the supermart place, I was level 2... i went into vats, unloaded my ap at it's head, and it died...

O_O

wtf so many bugs @ fallout3 i got stuck so many times

[Null]

Indeed, latest problem I've been facing is the graphics are acting up and everything starts changing colors.

What system are most of you playing on?

[SamanosukeShiva]

ps3

[Null]

I'm thinking of upgrading my GC and getting it for the PC. But I hear there are a lot of problems with the PC as well atm. Seems to crash more then the PS3. But at least that way I'll get downloadable content in the future and crisper graphics.

[Kyo]

Hasnt crashed once on 360 for me.

[Slott]

My crashes on PC are getting a lot rarer....also you get to quick save so it's not that bad ;x

I'm playing with 100 stealth, repair, small guns..I can pretty much 1 shot anything with a sneak attack critical shotgun shot heh

[Wintermute]

I've noticed a few graphic bugs here and there, and my Companions tend to disappear at random.

Dogmeat will go walkies or the NPC I'm escorting will vanish only to appear on the next autosave/load.

Biggest hassle are the invisible walls or the clipping in VATS, what looks like a clear shot ends up in all shots being emptied into the wall I'm using for cover.

I think that's damn annoying in most every FPS and TPS. I've blew myself up a few times in Valkyria Chronicles with grenades because the game even tells me it's a clear throw but it bounces right back in my face.

[Hyan]

I'm at tenpenny tower, trying to make the ghouls invade it, but I failed at hacking the door and now it says to contact admin. Did I screw up my chances and have to kill off the ghouls or is there still something I can do? >_>

Where did you guys find the Alien Blaster? Is is there a cute back story about it lol

[Null]

It was in an alien wreck near vault 92 and the disposal area. I'll try to find a map with it marked and post it here for those who don't have it.

The weapon is the best, kills most things in one shot but the ammo is very limited.

[killerx]

So many people tend to be afraid of deathclaws, rightfully so I guess because they hit hard. But they are extremely easy to kill as well if you just back up while fighting. Can kill a pack of em without getting hit.

Has anybody found any more cells for the Alien gun? I've been going crazy trying to find more. This weapon is bad ass.

just cripple a leg and they move so slow

Quality sucks but you get the jest.

[Wintermute]

Bloody Mess is so

Hit a Super Mutant with a 10mm round in the leg and all his limbs exploded.

Hit a Raider in the chest with the same gun a few minutes later and his chest disintegrated, leaving all the limbs to neatly plop on the floor.

[Kyo]

Yeah bloody mess is awesomely fun.

[SamanosukeShiva]

lawl my karma is Very Evil, Urban Invader

[killerx]

Hasnt crashed once on 360 for me.

i had it freeze one time i vent into vats while being hit controller set there and just rumbled for like 5min lol. Then the notes section in my pipboy froze for like a day or 2 couldn't even use it really pissed me off.


Oh and by the way when doing the quest oasis don't leave after you do the ceremony they put something on you and it apparently scares people away.....yeah i lost my lawbringer quest because of it the girl ran away in fear and i guess died? lol

[SamanosukeShiva]
