guys does the pip-boy thing work fine for you? what do you do to load it up nd more importntly what do you do to close it again? theres no mention of it in the manual

If your on the PC, to call the Pip-Boy you press TAB and then TAB again to close it. Hold TAB to turn on the Flashlight.

as aphex says, its all in the TAB key.

you mentioned something about an arrow, that sounds like the shift key...

how to you cycle through your weapons? cheers ste

You can assign hotkeys for weapons via pipboy and go to weapons section the press and hold buttons from 1 - 8 then click on which weapon you want to assign to that specific hotkey, it's kinda like oblivion hotkeying spells/weapons.

Still loving the game. Playing as an Evul female and looking for glitches

while waiting for the DLCs. :pimp:

I just got the 360 version , and i was wondering if you can have multiple profiles in the game?

CDdude55 · Dec 27, 2008

Nevermind my bro is just going to use a different account.

ArmoredCavalry · Dec 28, 2008

Meh, personally I would never get the console version of this game.

http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/

for that reason.

Don't really care for the mods, still lovin the game as is.

ArmoredCavalry · Dec 28, 2008

Yeah but the number of mods continues to grow, and more and more free content. Can't beat that with a stick.

I just installed one today that lets you slow down time (bullet time).

ste2425 · Dec 28, 2008

i just started this game, iiiiiitttttssssss awsome!!!! even my crappy 2600 xt can handle high settings outdoors at 1680 x 1050 lovin it

My game had been very stable as well until I go to this door at the Jefferson Memorial Rotunda, every single time I went in it crashed to desktop and thats a necesary place to go in the game. It turns out it was the 185.20 beta drivers causing the crash. Oddly the beta drivers were making it crash in that exact spot in both XP and Vista. Cleaning out the drivers and using the latest stable ones worked for me.

Sadly though, the beta drivers fix a problem I'm having in Red Alert 3. So I can't really play both games at the same time haha.

My apologies.

At first I wasn't so sure about this game. It was actually a second choice when I went to Best Buy to use up my gift card. Now I have no regrets in purchasing it. Absolutely loving the content, though some of those mutants scare the piss outta me when they get the drop on me and start hitting me. Though there is one question that I haven't been able to see anywhere else. Has anyone else noticed the enemy in Bridge Tower of Rivet City? On the floor with the robot guard, behind the locked door. I got too close to the door (didn't even lockpick or anything) and the entire security force turned on me. Not sure if its a hostile security member or just it was a coincidence. Anyways any insight on what this is?

El Fiendo · Jan 14, 2009

Heh, exactly like that. I searched for 'enemy in rivet city' I swear! Ah well thanks very much for that. I was kind of hoping it was something more impressive then just a turret. I'll have to make sure to hit up the place on my way through playing as a Chuck Norris lookalike / unarmed fighting / evil character that I plan on making.

Whole thing will always be in third person, and I'm going to get bloody mess first thing. Then called shot to the head extravaganza.

ShogoXT · Jan 14, 2009

This would be a good game if it were called something else. Not associated with the Fallout series in any way, but they made the mistake of calling it Fallout 3. They put it on a high place by doing that and the fans of the previous games were eagerly awaiting. It would be a good game if it werent Fallout 3, but they called it that when it is no real "Fallout 3".

Im sorry, but they ruined it, and people who never played Fallout 1 or 2 saying "look at this new shooter", just makes it that much worse.
