Deathclaws are indeed nasty, heck a fire ant if you're poorly equipped can make you human toast too.

The fire ants were so bad for me. I wasn't very leveled, and it took me hours and hours of fighting. I got fed up and had to leave and go somewhere else.
Also, I haven't fought very many death claws, but the couple I've encountered I've managed to snipe from a distance off. I keep hearing really awful things about them, though.
A SHOCKER TO ME.. is that there are actually more dialoge options in Mass Effect than this game.
Even on the harder difficulties while not power leveled, or very leveled at all I didn't find much challenge in this title...
Don't get me wrong. Deathclaws will still one or two shot me. At times the v.a.t.s. system feels a little unbalanced, while at others it feels necessary to survival.
Anyways, I loved the game, although perhaps not as much as the second installment in the trilogy.
I hate Raiders and their amazing accuracy.
I suggest to wait a little a bit for the DLC that's coming for Windows/360(no ps3 DLC), might add that extra spark you wanted.Originally Posted by erikramza
The beginning of what you said is that stuff that worries me but the last part makes me feel excited still.
Little over a week until I get to check it out myself... (I started up a game of Fallout 1 just to get me in the mood though)

It does hold very, very true to the classic formula. but I can't help but get the feel that it's moreso a patched Oblivion, than a true sequel.
"Oblivion with guns" is probably the most accurate description I've heard.
Oblivion with Guns is so overused that it's just become obnoxious. I say we all move on to FOblivion 3.
That's unfair to Fallout 3 though, tbh, because whatever else can be said about the game, it is a massive improvement over Oblivion and it fixes pretty much everything which was wrong with that game.
Explain please. It still appears to glitch to crap when the cache fills up... for me, anayways?
I meant in gameplay terms. Though truthfully, I'm not paranoid about FO3 like I am about Oblivion.Explain please. It still appears to glitch to crap when the cache fills up... for me, anayways?
This game just pissed me off more than any game has in recent memory. The game auto-saves whenever you enter through a door. So I am at the ancourage memorial and leave through the sewer exit. Once I'm outside it autosaves but I'm in radiated waters and my health depletes rapidly, not giving me enough time to re-enter where I came from. And there are those sewer men surrounding me so I can't quickly fast travel anywhere. So I kept dying and respawning in the same place to die again. I had saved about 2 hours previously so I had to go all the way back. What kind ofis that. This game has so many technical problems it shouldn't have been released till next year.
Great game, I enjoyed every moment of it.
No Dreddz, this actually just shows you were stupid and didn't save regulary it comes under the whole "the problem lies with the user not the technology" principle. Autosaving doesn't overwrite your save files and can actually be disabled. Thus you should have saved regulary. As for technical problems? I've not encountered any, the random drop of equipment in the first real quest the game gives you (the grocery store raid) provides a breath of fresh air because on some of the files I've played I ended up with assault rifles others I've gotten hunting rifles in my file now I have around 5 laser pistols (which means I probably should've tagged the laser weapon skill but it's random chance as to whether I'll find this or not. I might get Simms killed so I can get myself a chineese assault rifle) It shakes things up it makes you do things you wouldn't normally do.This game just pissed me off more than any game has in recent memory.

Milf, the raiders accuracy is indeed fearsome, once when I could barely get 35% accuracy in Vats for the raider's head with my 10mm pistol their sawn off hit me squarely 3 times before I managed to move back enough that my aim wasn't blocked and theirs was off. Still if I had gotten a hunting rifle or assault rifle earlier I believe I'd have taken them out with 0 damage. Best thing to do with raiders is sneak and get sneak attack criticals even a chest shot should be 1 hit kill if you do them right.
(SPOILER)Other thing I noticed about the first grocery store raider based mission is the super pharmacy has a robot inside, if you hack the terminal next to the robot's pod you can activate it, when activated with the door behind you open the robot will go off in search of intruders and attack them with it's built in laser pistol. This gives you extra laser ammo when it dies and some scrap metal. However when you find the robot in combat be sure never to give it a hand, once you attack a raider it'll declare you a hostile too and then you get forced to destroy something which can take out 1 - 2 raiders for you.
Started finally about two days ago. I've been really putting a lot of focus on sneak and speech. Speech hasn't really seemed to do all that much for me though. I'm not sure how far I am, though. I've done a lot of side quests and all I've really done for the main quest has been to fix the GNR dish. So here's hoping I get to do some killer stuff with it.
Also, my favorite moment so far: I see a super mutant at the end of a tunnel standing away from me. I sneak somewhat close then lay frag mines, figuring I'll back off, shoot to get his attention, then let the mines take care of him. I get three set leading a trail up to me, pull out my hunting rifle and do a non-VATS (I'm out of range to even do that), non-zoomed shot.
It crits and kills him with one shot, with him having started at full health. I just sort of sat in silence for a second before grumbling that I'd have to disarm and pick up those mines
