    The endless search for THE bed!

    I also thought it was dumb that you couldn't sleep in an owned bed even if the owner was dead or missing. They should just wake you up and attack you if they catch you sleeping there. Anyway, I think the Well Rested ability disappearing pretty much immediately has to do with whether you have...

    Fair Fax Ruins, Fort Independce

    Am I the only one who got Combat Armor almost immediately? I have had it for the entire game. Hmm..

    Cool! Tesla tanks in Fallout! Cross promotion with Red Alert

    I just did a quick google search for Fallout 3 expansions and couldn't find anything. Can I get a link?

    200 year old wood houses

    What I noticed last night is that the terrain is incredibly rocky for no apparent reason. It does help make things feel more desolate, but the pre-existing roadways are lined with 20+ foot rock walls for much of what is supposed to be DC suburbs, and I wonder how that came to be.

    Books & how to read ?

    I could never figure out why pre-war books survived 300 years after the war either. Then again cars and buildings shouldn't have, either. It also makes no sense that skill books go into the "aid" section of your pip-boy. It took me a little while to realize this and thought the game was...

    Broke the subway lock...

    I don't know if this answers your question, but I haven't come across any locked or irradiated subway tunnels, and I had no issues getting to GNR.

    10 year old leaves vault during birthday party NEED HELP

    I'm confused about what you need "Help" with... you cheated/used workarounds to get outside as a child, then act as though something is wrong with the game...? Weird.

    A little tip for defending bigtown

    How come when I played this, only 4 supermutants showed up and I was able to dispatch them with an assault rifle in about 20 seconds? WTF?

    Fallout 3 Classic Music Mod [Download here]

    I did this "mod" as well and just decided that some of the Half-Life/Half-Life 2/Portal music can also be very fitting for wandering/dungeons, as the more ambient tracks make me feel extremely hopeless. Does anyone have a description of which music folder gets played when for this game? I'm...

    Umm... what just happened? (graphics question)

    I happened to find a post on this on the Bethesda board. Apparently if you UNCHECK "Transparency Multisampling" in the launcher, that fixes the issue. How obvious. Does anyone have a descrption of what all of the Launcher options actually do?

    Help with broken "Those!" quest?

    I didn't kill her, although I wasn't particularly impressed by Lesko.

    Help with broken "Those!" quest?

    The kid and Lesko are part of different quests. Talk to the kid on your way back out if you haven't already.

    Umm... what just happened? (graphics question)

    So I have been playing Fallout 3 for a few days with no problems. I have an 8600GTS video card which performs great for most games, using 175.16 Forceware drivers. This morning I decided it couldn't hurt to upgrade my video drivers, so I moved up to the latest (178.24). At that point, I...

    Did you all forget..

    That's not what I said. I did not mention Bethesda anywhere in the post. The game is out and it's what it is. I'm explaining why I, personally, am able to enjoy it. I agree with you. The humor sucks if it exists at all in this game. This is one of the reasons Fallout 3 seems dumbed down...

    Did you all forget..

    I have been waiting for a thread like this (mostly because I am too lazy to make one myself). My basic feeling, and the reason I enjoy Fallout3 so much, is that it's buggy just like the originals! If it didn't have somewhat dumb conversations, mediocre AI, and some broken game mechanics, it...

    Where Did Lucas Simms Go?

    That is how I played it and Simms stuck around and gave me the apartment. Sounds like your situation is a bug to me.

    Follout 3 Cheatcodes (just for those who really need them)

    Nothing "pops up" - you just get a little yellow I-cursor in the bottom left of the screen. That doesn't happen for you?

    Is this supposed to look this ... ugly ?

    Something is wrong. My settings are at "High" and definitely don't look that bad. I will take some screenshots when I get home (is there a console command or button for screenshots?)
