    99 Awesome screenshots from the Wasteland

    Fallout 3 is simply an amazing looking game. The game has gotten too much flack for what Bethesda supposedly got wrong, but one thing they got right was the look of the game, the depths of the details. I want to elevate the screenshot to an artform with Fallout 3. More can be found at my...

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    Oh my bad, I forgot to drop the <sarcasm> tag re: the original posters claim that using VATS is "cheating". But if you couldn't tell I pretty much agree with you.

    Anyone else find computer hacking depressing?

    AAAAaaahhhh.. cool, I'll try it next time I find a locked door, thanks for the clew. I can't believe I didn't try that.

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    Oh man, that's BIG TIME cheating! The only fair way to not be a cheater is to always let the baddie know you are there, and to let him have the first hit.

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    You fire faster? Our bullets travel quicker, wha? Do you have any proof to back that up? damage done to us is reduced? What does that even have to do with VATS? So if we don't use VATS will they do normal damage on us then? Of course the big question is: Does any of what you say hold...

    Lesson Learned: Being a Wastelander Sucks

    I stepped out of Megaton once, found a Yao Guai doing battle with Doc Hoff, his Caravan guard, and the tin can that guards Megaton. By the end of it the good Doctor was missing a few limbs. With the Yao Guai concerned with everyone else, it didn't notice me and I managed to snipe it dead...

    I *know* WHY Fallout 3 sucks! (descriptions)

    Re: I *know* WHY Fallout 3 sucks! I never really noticed until you mentioned it that the descriptions aren't there. Yeah, it kinda sucks, but I would hardly call it the "backbone" of the Fallout experience. To me, exploring all the strange nooks and crannies of the Wasteland is the...

    Anyone else find computer hacking depressing?

    I must be on the wrong side of the coin, because I find the hacking to be really really easy. but the lockpicking, I never quite understood how that works. What exactly are we supposed to be doing there? I move the bobby pin around a little and then hit force and sometimes it works sometimes...

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    So there's absolutely NO ROOM for any sort of cross-over, combination of the two genres....?

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    I can use it but my enemies can't? So what like all my enemies are actually using their mouse to aim at me? Gee, I kinda assumed that my enemies were going through the same skill checks, spending AP, aiming for specific body parts, etc. that I was in VATS. If that's true, how is that any...

    Anyone else find computer hacking depressing?

    I suppose it's pretty depressing if you have no idea what you are doing. I'd say, nine times out of ten I can get the password without failing. But then again, I know what I'm doing. It's not that hard, you just gotta take your time, If it says you got 4 out of 7 right, then why are you...
