Fallout 3 DLC for PS3 finally well sorta...

[randomdrifter865]

Sniping is my specaility on land and infiltrating rundown places and such is second nature to me. Do the ghoul reavers react if you wear the ghoul mask? If so I can easily by pass them.

The important double post of the month on Fallout 3 DLC. Well the PS3 is finally getting what its been waiting for almost 2-3 years now. The DLC that microsoft robbed us of is coming September 24th of this year and that is Broken Steal first. Next DLC is Anchorsage and the Pitt on October 2nd. Finally Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta bundle on October 8th. Yay!!!! OMG OMG OMG!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Silver Stryker]

lucky you. They're not making a CD for Mothership Zeta for th 360, leaving it exclusive to getting it via LIVE. And I'm SOL with that. lol

Ghoul raevers weren't all that tough for me. The first time I fought one, I just ran around in circles while it chased me. With the heavy incinerator and pyromaniac perk, I gradually brought him to death. Emphasis on "gradually," though. lol

And then after that, I remembered I had a dart gun. Dart guns made them insanely easy.

I loved the part in Point Lookout where you start "trippin."
Random, you haven't played point lookout yet, right? I won't spoil that part but is insane. XD

Oddly enough you can also get the game of the year edition for the Xbox 360 about $10.00 off the original price or the PS3 version. Like you really need the game of year edition when you have the first 4 DLC's plus the original Fallout 3. So you are best getting it live unless they change their minds and sell Mothership Zeta as an individual disk which probably be a waste if they product out the game of the year edtions of both versions which includes all 5 DLC's in one bundle wth the original game. The contant I have to get from the Playstation store which is online because I see no point in getting the Game of The Year Edition if you have the original copy which costs exactly the same price buying it new for almost $60.00. So I'm better off downloading the DLC's online as the DLC's come which is real nice of Bethesda for making us PS3 users waiting the whole summer
finally paid off.

Part of this is because they feel sorry for holding up on us. Though it was probably a good idea to wait because they had to fix bugs found in the orignal versions of the first DLC's for both the PC and Xbox 360 versions probably The Pitt mostly. I didn't see any issues with the other DLC's while watching videos and such. Honestly though I haven't played any of the DLC's. I have only seen them in bits and pieces which for me is fine enough to curve my craving to play it up. Of course enough to know whats going on ,but I don't ever watch the spoilers because I want to see them for myself. If anything the major bug found in the PS3 version of fallout 3 is it sometimes freezes due to all the data it creates by saving and such.

Well time for another double post. Well I got my hands on Broken Steel and loving it ,however I think the reason my game is so glitchy is the auto save feature I need to turn off... So far I found some things enjoying and one thing very sad. Liberty Prime gets destroyed... I can get away with murder so far tee hee hee. Blackhawk to the face Enclive. I take it I needs me a tesla cannon.

[Silver Stryker]

I keep forgetting to get a blackhawk of my own. I found the music sheet needed to trade for the gun, but I don't remember where. Do you?

[randomdrifter865]

Step 1: Go to Agitha's house its near merisetti train yard look for a bridge.
Step 2: Do her quest to find the violin if you haven't already down so skip step 2.
Step 3: Give her the sheet music and ask for the other reward which is the Blackhawk scoped magnum.

Personal notes: This Magnum is by far one of the best weapons to use to dispatch enemies at a distance or up close in personel at 55 damage is a nice bonus, however I recommend finding its regular counterparts and use those as spare parts. There are other cool unique magnums out there. This one is just one of them. ;D

[Silver Stryker]

I found it. Oh, and mine does 60 DMG.

anyone else capable of maxing out all their stats? I might be able to do so on Silver's profile since I get about 23 points per level up with only 3-4 more skills left to upgrade(which are all high enough on their own, save for unarmed, which is at around 40. And I'm only at level 24.

[viruszero]

I'm pretty sure that it's possible to max the stats out without actually going beyond level 20... But this requires a bit of forethought and planning. As you have to know which stats you are going to level up and when. As well as carefully plan your perks to help aid the ascension to perfection.

There are several perks which are required as well... The one that doubles the points you get from books is an absolute necessity as it's what gives you the ability to max out. (You just need to bring the stats up to a certain point, 80 I think... but I'm not 100% sure, then find all the books and use them. )

[randomdrifter865]

There are 25 skill books per skill. With Comprehension in affect you can got up to exactly 50 points of free skill points versus 25 keeping it all natural. As another note this perk works best with Educated. So whatever you got natuarally for skillpoint grinds
this adds more to your natural skill point distribution. Of course having a high intelligence also helps, but that is purely your choice. Hmmm? Your Blackhawk had 60? Mine was 55dam which is alright with me ,but now I feel somewhat jipped. Oh well I guess some uniques have random variables.

[Silver Stryker]

Yeah, I'm aware of being able to Max out before 20. I was only asking if you guys have/are going to accomplish it.

I was planning on trying to do it before 20 but I lost interest...or more like I kinda diverged off that path.(got perks I wanted instead of needed....darn you, bloody mess perk.)

Oh and Random maybe you need to slightly fix it? Unless,.....--oh, when a skill is at 100, and you put on some clothing that raises the skill already at 100, does it secretly go higher? If so, that might explain why mine does 60. I have on Desmond's reading glass, which brings up Small Guns +5 and uh,...somethin else. I forgot. lol

On an unrelated note, I ran into a friendly Giant radscorpion. I helped it pick off a few ants and a Yo goi(?) and then it just walked around while occasionally glancing at me while making a few threatening claw gestures...lol. I went in for a hug(went close to it to see what would happen if I nudged it), but then it made it pretty clear to me that it wanted me dead. so I introduced it to mah metal blaster.

[viruszero]

Odd, I've never seen friendly creatures except for with the Animal Friend perk... So I'm guessing you have that perk right?
But with that I've never seen them turn on you unless you attack them first.

As far as the damage for that gun goes, I think you nailed the answer perfectly Stryker. I mean on the PC version, you can use console commands to give a character whatever SPECIAL stats you want and it apparently works. (Never tried it myself.) but supposedly you could give your character a 100 Strength stat and it'd work. So that means that likely the same would apply for the skills.

[randomdrifter865]

I have no desire for perfection just in skills I prefer or perks feel that are useful. Though I am kinda in a way doing that... Right now I'm in Adams Airforce Base tearing it up man! As for odd glitches go I have had the odd occurence the game glitched an enemy from dying litterelly. Like I blew off its head and it continued to attack and even follow me for like an hour and then it finally died. Well I goofed on the gun's dam my bad.... It can do 60 when fully repaired. Just used to seeing 55 a lot because all the spare parts i never use sometimnes. As for secret stat raising I'm not to sure ,but I do notice if I wear the utility outfit which increases lockpick by 5 my percentage in force lock goes up.

[viruszero]

The only real glitch I've encountered was the yao guai... I VATS shot and killed one as it was lunging at me, and it went flying into the distance. Never to be seen again. I also coulda swore that I saw a tiny star twinkle as it dissappeared. Unfortunately no roar or cries or anything to match.

And I as well just go for fun, not maximizing the stats. I mean I've never used the melee weapons until I was forced to in the pitt. Which kinda sucked as my melee skill was really low and I was forced to use the auto axe. (Only thing that kinda saved me was I had managed to sneak in a .32 so I could use it in a pinch. Not that it was a really great or powerful weapon... just the range was a load better and headshots still work pretty well.)

[Silver Stryker]

Hey, don't get me wrong here, I play for fun as well. Like I said, I gave up early on trying to go perfect, then when I had hit level 22-3, I was all like, "WOW. lemme see if I can actually do it."

Anyone know of Hunter X Hunter? Well in it, there's a kid named killua who's an assasin, and has this skill called the assasin step in which his steps become so quiet and fast, he can disappear right in front of his enemys' eyes.

Thanks to the stealth suit and 100 sneak, I can do it too lol. It's awesome combined with the shock sword. I quickly stand up behind an enemy and crouch back down to get them cautious and walking around. Then I go for a strike as soon as they're normal again. Granted they don't turn to dust upon my awesome sneak criticals, repeat the process to further torment them. lol

And then thanks to silent running, I can kill people right in front of other peoples' eyes and stay hidden. so useful and awesome for the brotherhood, the outcast, the enclave and overlords.

Sidenote: I dunno what I did, but my blackhawk is now at 62 damage. I should really pay attention to what I do. All I know is that it couldn't have been from any perk or item. I didn't do much regarding stats.
