Fallout 3 Thread

i might just do that. become an evil bastard who kills everyone except my favourite trader :)

yeah that's pretty much what I'm doing haha.
 
This Game Now Flickers and becomes unresponsive right after birth and when the screen comes up to pick player looks. Can alt f4 to desktop, any one else have this prob.

Have you patched it? I had a lot of crashes before the patch but never a crash there.
 
spoiler question in white


why does Col. Autumn come back to life, and how does he get out of the Project Purity control room? I thought Dad killed him when he caused some sort of radiation leak or something, but yet he comes back to life, gets out of the control room (along with the 2 Enclave soldiers. the only one left there is a scientist), and comes back to try to kill you again.
 
I have not been able to Play this in a few days I need some Damn speakers for my new Monitor!
 
@hat: Apparently, Col. Autumn is just "incapacitated" while the others are killed. My guess is the Enclave rushes in and saves him after you head for the sewers to escape.

@Ford

I was confused about that too! He died, then like respawned. He must have amazing rad skills or have epic armor to prevent radiation. O wait, I picked up the armor, no rad abilities... damn.
 
I need some help. My Fallout 3 now crashes after about an hour of play. Usually when I load a new area. However I do notice my framerates contantly dropping from the moment of the first load. It "feels" like a memory leak. FYI I am playing the steam version.

Re-install? Try another save?

Yeah. I reinstalled the sound drivers today with no luck. This sucks because my old 4200+ system ran it like a charm. I'm thinking Ill install a 64bit OS and see if that fixes the problem.

considering you have crossfire and 4GB of ram, i'd say you murdered the address space limit, and an x64 OS may just be what you need.
 
I run out of ammo way to fast.:banghead:
 
are u using vat. To aim if not the aiming sucks. Nice avatar
 
I use it sometimes.everyone love it:rockout:,who doesnt love a hot ass.
 
Well, I did the update and it fucked the game up. Once i get killed it gos to the beginning and,well I'm not sure.I just end the game. I'll have to delete it and reload the game:slap: what a dip shit i am,i didn't have any problems what so ever.:banghead:I must leave well enough alone.
 
VATS is neat but the whole concept of it being necessary to succeed sucks.

I don't even bother with the assault rifles because they go through ammo so fast. I try to get the Waser Wrifle ASAP (from Biwwy in Little Lamplight). It's accurate and powerful enough to drop just about anything.
 
Yea I agree with you Fordgt90concept, that is a silly concept they used. But its still one hell of a game. I wonder why they would do that ?
And Barry that sucks. I see a few people had issues with this game. Thankfully I had none of those issues.
 
Is it just me or am finding out the players character can't run?

It's been a long time since I played but I think you can run by pressing the Shift key.
Check your key configurations, you can change them to another more comfortable key if you wish.
