Keep in mind I pretty much played the campaign straight through, only doing a few side quests, and doing the easiest parts of each (IE killing everyone = quest win!), so I kinda rushed. I am going to take my time and do more this time.

found something interesting max your str at 10 grab a rebar hammer or w.e and just hit shit with it you will never need a gun period even on harder difficulties still wont need a gun what takes 20 bullets + to kill u can take down in 2 shots with a rebar hammer makes weapons in this game fucking usless soon as i switched over this game plays like Oblivion with super powered melee weapons.

 

[TheLaughingMan]

No melee weapons in Fallout, check.

Crazy still bent on proving he can brake the game and make it no longer fun, check.

Trolling 4 pages back that I missed because I just found this thread, check.

Still need someone to do me a solid and buy me this game, check.

P.S. I can trade you several older titles if you like.

Yeah we were talking about that last night. I started a new character build, with really fucked up traits, etc. Super high perception, low strength, high luck. I wanna see if luck helps with the casino games.

 

[Bjorn_Of_Iceland]

Id probly just make a crit based character once again (10 luck and all)

pre ordered this and got it today, but carnt play it till tomorrow and cannot wait. looks amazin hope i wont be dissapointed as its the first game ive bought on release day and payed full price for

 

[Mindweaver]

I need someone to buy me this game as well... hehehe my money is tied up in cod:bo's... Oh and I just picked up batman:AA GOTY for 13.60 on steam.

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

well got implants stuck into my character u can increase all stats by one and get regeneration and built in body armor etc pretty cool got a weapon kurgan would like a LMG 90 rounds deveastating at close range vs multiple targets truly is spray and pray but you can use 500-600caps worth of ammo within moments so i stick with the Anti Material rifle as its long range for sniping and heavy damage if u hide u can kill even full grown deathclaws with a single crit and if not well blam blam blam then rip out the brotherhood of steels electric poke spear thing man thats awesome for a melee weapon 75 dam and its cumulative can kill anything in a few moments ran through an enemy base and laid waste to 50 + enemies with it for melee its my new favorite weapon with LMG and Fatman as backups

 

[AltecV1]

my favorite guns so far are the Gauss rifle and the LMG havent found the 50cal sniper rifle yet . i have also found some pretty cool SPECIAL weapons but nothing worth carring around so they sit in my safe house

So do you like this game?Is it better from point of graphics?Is it buggy or smooth?

 

[Icejon]

I pointed my gun at the guy talking in the silver laser place while guarding the door. It broke the script and the NPC doesn't move. But oddly I got the next quest to go to a certain location.

Weird, I dont know where this location is to deliver this package.

 

[AphexDreamer]

I just really want an HD Texture Pack.

I just really want an HD Texture Pack.

Agreed! I enjoyed NMC's texture pack for Fallout 3; really enhanced the game. But....

It looks good already. It's overall smooth for me. I have it installed on an SSD and have some good GPU horsepower, but it worked fine with a single 5870 enabled too (at lower settings), and I've had no multi-GPU issues after testing with several configurations and settings.

I've run into a few minor problems in the game, but no "game breakers." Some of the terrain and features are not polished (for example, in some places, rocks hover over the terrain slightly rather than meeting it seamlessly).

The biggest annoyance to me: the invisible barriers blocking the player from going places you would otherwise be able to go; e.g., bluffs/hills/rocks you know you could climb over, but the game doesn't let you. That combined with the layout of various terrain features and objects really works to route the player where the game wants you to go, which to me flies in the face of the non-linear, open-to-exploration quality of the game that makes Fallout great.

exactly. loving the game and all - but more than a few times i want to jump on a hill or something and can't. it sucked in fallout 3 as there were just huge buildings - but sucks more here as it makes you think you can, and then you just hit a wall.

Lower settings? Why? You should be able to run it maxed out with a single 5850 nevermind a 5870.

 

[AphexDreamer]

Hey! I'm running this game maxed out on a single 5870 and get a constant 60FPS. I start lagging when there are 10+ NPC's but I think thats an issue with the game.

Yep, correct! I can run maxed out, but I get lag when I see alot of NPC's as well.

 

[TIGR]

Maxed out means everything is set to Ultra and AA and AF are maxed as well. Note that I am running 1800x1440 resolution (for reference, 25% more pixels to render than 1080P).

I don't consider it "smooth" unless the system can render every situation you will encounter in the game, from start to finish, at a smooth frame rate. Others have mentioned that the frame rate sometimes drops when many NPCs must be rendered. Certain environments, weapons, and effects can have the same impact.

You have to define "able to run it." If you're okay with drops to ≤25fps and some microstutter occuring with low to moderate frequency, then yes a single 5870s can "run it" maxed out at this res. If you want a truly smooth gameplay experience from beginning to end, then no, a 5870 doesn't cut it at the given resolution and settings.

It is a known glitch. She is gone forever. I had the same problems with my companions. They all disappeared on fast travel. I have not been able to get it to work :shadedshu

I fast traveled before with her. First command worked. Second displayed some error.

I cant believe that bitch took all my shit. lol

EDIT: nvm on that. first command displayed error as well..

mine would end up in the same area as me, but often at a different entrance. likely they got into a fight and knocked unconscious before you fast travelled away leaving them to their fate.



also, same issues with me - i lowered graphics to alleviate the lag from the NPC bug. lets hope 10.10 fixes that (or a game patch really soon will!)
