Fallout 3 Question. getting geck early.

[marc512]

Iv started fallout 3 from the start again, want a good charactor this time.
Im at the point where im with the dr li and dad going to project purity. I was wondering what would happen if i get the geck before dad dies ?

Should i go and try it ? If youv already tried please say, dont wanna use up my time going to the vault 102( i think ) to get the geck.

thanks

Being a good character is awesome by the way. You get the best followers in Fawkes and Star Paladin Cross, and you can go up to Paradise Falls and slaughter all of the slavers for positive Karma.

i agree im basicly god at the moment and im quite enjoying it, im getting handed over random 10mm ammo which is useless buts its good against molerats etc


So now i can take it that its impossible to get the geck early? just a thought because i wanted the game to end a different way...

Btw you can get through the irradiated zone! get advanced radiation suit, and a lot of rad x assigned to a key. Iv got 45 medicine and i think thats put my radx up abit. i got to the door then realised it was broken D: (spoiler)

If you get the gek early the quest proceeds from that point e.g.

If you get the geck before dad dies you still get captured by the enclave do all the break out shizzle and when you get back to the citidel the game acts as though dads dead and you're on the final mission

pointless getting the geck then? i guess i gotta run back to the memorial place and tell them all that the coast is clear to enter the project purity ( i left them all outside so i can go get the geck )
