It's only the pre-order. It's the very first game I've pre-ordered. I [i]think[/i] I have to bring the box in, pay for the game, and swap the box for the Collector's Edition. The Collector's Edition includes: [img]http://news.filefront.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/falloutce1-1.jpg[/img] - 'Making of Fallout 3' disc. - Vault-Tec 'Vault-Boy' bobble head figure. - Vault-Tec lunch box. - Booklet containing Concept art for FO3. The alarm-clock in the Survival Edition just isn't worth it. To me, at least.

[QUOTE=TAU!]... "Bloody Mess" perk. Jesus fucking Christ, that's all I read people bitching about on the Bethsoft forums. Fucking shit hell.[/QUOTE] Sadly, even without the Bloody Mess perk, critical hits can still cause messy ends. But yes, I agree with you about people bitching about gore.

[QUOTE=mysteryman]Yeah in the video he said, "He will let anyone in, for the right price"[/QUOTE] Note: this excludes 'zombies' and most likely, anyone who Tenpenny doesn't like the look of. I really want to believe that Bethesda won't do what they did with Oblivion and let you into everywhere and let you do everything with no consequences whatsoever with one character. It's kind of like finding out heaven is really hell for how boring it gets.

[QUOTE=Kombayn]An alarm clock seems a load more useful than a bobble head and a lunchbox.(Who the hell still uses lunchboxes?)[/QUOTE] The alarm clock is pretty damn big. [img]http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/videogames/features/pip_boy_3000.jpg[/img] At it's size, there are no additional features. I'm sure it could have Radio features.

I really wonder how nuka-cola tastes like... :v:

Nukalicious.

How many levels can you grow?

[QUOTE=booster]How many levels can you grow?[/QUOTE] Questions: How many levels you can grow? How many perks you can have? Can you find out the mysterious man is? How the fuck in a huge wasteland i am supossed to look for a Vault-Tec Bobblehead? :v: How many itens you can have? How many options does the Pip-Boy 3000 have? Again,can i blow up the fucking eye-bots? --- Yes i know, i have lots of questions about this game. :v:

Answers: It caps at 20. One perk for every level. Not sure who the Mysterious Stranger is. You stumble upon the bobblehead. As many as you can carry; determined by your Strength, plus strength and carry-related perks. ? I imagine so. They look like they make for good target practice.

[QUOTE=Fadeaway]Not sure who the Mysterious Stranger is.[/QUOTE] It's a perk. When you try to attack an enemy and you run out of AP points as you miss him, the Mysterious Stranger should come around and shoot him/her for you.

Aw,just 20 powers :< I wanted to know if we can do a quest or something to know who is the Mysterious Stranger,but i don't think someone can answer this just yet How many options.(Itens,Quests,Map,etc.) But forget it, i just used it on the Prepare for The Future site.

[QUOTE=Fanboydude]It's a perk. When you try to attack an enemy and you run out of AP points as you miss him, the Mysterious Stranger should come around and shoot him/her for you.[/QUOTE] I don't need telling [B]what[/B] the Stranger is, the big question is [B]who[/B] the Stranger is: name, gender, what they mean to the player character. We know none of this, hence the perk's name. [QUOTE=Gmodpanda]Only 20? Aw,just 20 powers :<[/QUOTE] The Toddinator claims that you might not even reach level 20 before the end of the game for how long it takes to get there and before that, you'll be very powerful.

Whoo, looks like Bethesda fucked over the series. I was so damn excited for this game, I stayed up until midnight the night the goddamn trailer was announced. Haven't seen a single good-looking movie or screenshot so far. It really is Oblivion with guns, and I certainly wasn't one to jump on that bandwagon originally, but I haven't seen anything to the contrary. Fortunately for Bethesda there's a market for Oblivion with guns.

This does not looks like Oblivion with Guns for me. It's Oblivion with Guns and Mutants! :v: Seriously this does not looks like Oblivion with Guns to me. And i really want this game. I bet :20bux: there is a quest to find out who is the Mysterious Stranger! :v:

I dunno, there's the same Oblivion gliding walk with the same speed, combat, from the E3 demos, looked slow and cumbersome, the demo player flailing wildly to get a shot in not using VATS. I'm really just going off the E3 demos in my opinion, but again, haven't really seen anything to the contrary. I don't know how much a game could change in the short timespan to a Fall release.

It won't change. I'm as disappointed as anyone else at Bethesda's used pet franchise and the directions they might take it in, but all that's left to do for the rest of us is to suck it up and take it how we get it. If anything, it's definitely going to disappoint, but it won't necessarily be a bad game.

[QUOTE=Fadeaway]I don't need telling [B]what[/B] the Stranger is, the big question is [B]who[/B] the Stranger is: name, gender, what they mean to the player character.[/QUOTE] He's the goddamn Mysterious Stranger.

[QUOTE=Fanboydude]He's the goddamn Mysterious Stranger.[/QUOTE] SHE is my mother. :v: That would be a good plot twist. :3:

(at release of course ;))

Oh this is hilarious. The latest Fallout 3 video, "The Weapons" has shown me just how ridiculous VATS is when it comes to targeting. So far we know you can't specify targets with explosives - this is a given in any game with gore and explosions - or melee attacks - not such an understandable choice. Somehow, you can target specific parts, [I]with the flamer.[/I] [b]Edit:[/b] [url=http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/882301/fallout-3/videos/fallout3_Gameplay3TheWasteland_082908.html]Here, have your sacrilegious video evil. :argh:[/url]

[QUOTE=Gmodpanda]Only 20? Aw,just 20 powers :<[/QUOTE] if you'd paid attention to the videos, Todd said that you can never get all of the perks on one character. There's more than 20 perks but you can only choose 20 of them on a single character due to the level cap being 20.

He's right. Fade, you can do that with the flamer because flamethrowers are simply awesome.

[QUOTE=NotYou3]if you'd paid attention to the videos, Todd said that you can never get all of the perks on one character. There's more than 20 perks but you can only choose 20 of them on a single character due to the level cap being 20.[/QUOTE] That's right. Some perks are ranked, so if you'll probably want to improve on certain perks instead of simply going for 20 different ones. They shouldn't really have a drastic impact on the game anyway, they're just small advantages and aesthetic changes (i.e. Bloody Mess, one you'll have to be careful with because its only intrinsic advantage is a small increase to your critical hit chance).

Can you still play after the main quest?

[QUOTE=TomFratelli]Can you still play after the main quest?[/QUOTE] Unlike Oblivion, no. Once you finish the game, you get a myriad of endings depending on your actions - there's a lot of endings (though I'm disinclined to believe the larger figures given by Bethesda). [b]Edit:[/b] But you can postpone the main quest as long as you want.

Kinda like STALKER then, I guess. :v: I wonder how many different weapons you could make.
