The Countdown Has Begun...... Fallout 3

On another note, how do you change the grx settings? I cant see where to change the resolution or AA settings....
 
as far as i am aware there is no point of no return as it is all applicable. The ending(s) basically go over what choices you made throughout, reflecting which NPCs lived and died, what side-quests you did etc. There are hundreds of difference endings so don't worry about it and just enjoy :)

I realise you may be meaning in respect of the father plotline? But I aint got a clue about that!

Pretty much played this for 16 hours today - i just dont know where the time went! Gonna go bed now so I can get some more time in 2morra before I go to work Monday!

can anyone tell me how one goes about changing the gfx settings? Mine is currently only on very high and I wanna see what it looks like with Ultra and AA on.
 
well.... 26 and a half hours in and I am nearly level 13 - am deffo enjoying this game! I outright refused to rush and do the main quest (finding your father) and am enjoying the many sidequests from various places. One lil touch I like is the radio dj announcing your progress and how much you are helping the communities etc.

I would think this game was a complete waste of time and money if I had rushed the main quest in 10-12 hours - so glad I didnt.

**EDIT**

Oh yeah, this game eats away at your social life! 26 1/2 hrs over a 48 hour weekend lol!!
 
Max INT and Speech rock IMHO. RPGs live or die by the interactivity with the NPCs and this game is great at it - just hate the idea of going all thuggish and shoot first ask questions later - I am getting sooooo far by talking my way thru things (and the additional comebacks are brilliant!)
 
am using a 42" Plasma (1080p) and am loving using the 360 gamepad - will be doing the same for Dead Space too - having the best of both worlds (PCs superior gfx and the 360 gamepad) really does make all the difference :)

Aye but it has to be black wireless ;)

Even though I prefer the black gamepad, I am keeping it linked to the Elite and thus just using a plain ole white one. Can't be bothered to keep linking the pads to the PC n back to the 360 n vice versa all the time.
 
On another note, I was playing till silly o'clock the other day when I literally pooped myself. I had the surround sound on and I was standing in a room minding my own business in-game when out of nowhere I heard a "hello" behind me and I physically turned around. I swore there was a lass sitting on the sofa behind my chair and it proper freaked me out cos I wasn't expecting it. Damn surround sound sometimes lol!

I am a bit overwhelmed with choices on what to level up, I just gone to level 3 but more or less randomly picked some stats to increase, are there stats worth raising above others?

There is no real right or wrong answer for this, altho I would suggest that you master a few skills rather than be a jack of all trades.
 
got 6 or 7 of the bobble heads so far - am annoyed tho as I already had max intelligence so no bonus for me :(
 
tbh i wouldnt waste a perk on the explorer one, worst case scenario is you can find all the places either online or in a guide at any rate, why waste one of the few perks you can get on a resource that doesnt benefit you longterm?
 
Being a saint I have people throw money and gifts at me - gets very tiring I must say!

Am considering cheating am getting fed up with running out of ammo constantly.

There have been times I have been LOW on ammo, however, I have never run out of ammo for any particular weapon. I favour the Chinese Assault Rifle and Combat Shotgun as my general weapons, a Fisto for melee with a .44 Magnum for backup and a Sniper Rifle for long distance pwning. I search literally all the boxes, bins, closets and dead bodies and thus never have a problem.
 
Well after a week of playing I managed to clock up over 50 hours of playtime and thoroughly enjoyed it. The best bit for me is that I am looking forward to replay the game as a complete barsteward as compared to my previous angelic iteration. I am in no rush to play it straight away and will go play either Fable 2, GoW2 or Dead Space first. But I know I will come back to it and for me, that's what makes a good game great - the replayability. I also didn't find the VATS system tiresome unlike some reviewers, I actually preferred using VATS.

Fantastic game and anyone remotely interested in the lore of Fallout should give it a go. I'd give it 9/10.
