I rented this yesterday and it's my first expeience of fallout. Is this a bad idea? All seems a bit random to me.

Mine sometimes stutters in that the speech will begin but the character wont start moving his lips until about a second after, then the Xbox fans kick up and it sounds like its going to crash..


No crashes yet though smile

Oh goodie, deathclaws are still there, and they are even meaner and harder to kill...... Still, being attacked by 4 at once made my death swift.....

Just wait until you meet a pack of deathclaws eek

If you go to the quarry, there's about 14 plus a mother and an Alpha male laugh

Anyone know which geezer i gotta take outside the dinosaur for boone to shoot, and also how many blue star caps have people got i got 9 found one in somewhere that im unwilling to say unless asked... then this bloke told me that they are rare and people will hunt me down for having one, then next day some bloke aproached me with a lucky charm necklace that turned out to be about 8 of em so ikilled him because he wouldnt hand em over unless i have 50 skill speach, haha...

Can anyone explain this?

I said earlier that I had ended up having a bit of a falling out with the Powder Gangers, culminating in all out war when I went to the NCR CF to try and recruit that Sheriff. I wasn't happy with this as I felt like I was missing out on missions and stuff so I re-loaded an earlier save.
Did the sheriff missions and a few more for the Powder Gangers, all of a sudden it was kicking off in the NCR CF, NCR V Powder Gangers with me in the middle. I ended up killing loads of NCR which obviously upset them greatly. All of a sudden I am 'villified' by the fking NCR, which is exactly where I stood with the Powder Gangers before I reloaded my save.

Anyway, I make my way down to the NCR outpost, when I get there they are neutral again?

WTF?

Anyone got any tips for Caravan? I'm playing with the standard deck but wondering if I should start collecting some other cards too. Lost 6 games so far frown

Yes it's 2271 or somewhere after that, I read a thing somewhere or other which mentioned 2271 I think, and yes, after a Nuclear War between USA and China (hence in F3 the Alaska segment and the chinese assault rifle!).

I am still no-where near Vegas (lots of side quests to be getting on with!). I am not sure but is the map we have on the pip boy the WHOLE map of the game? It seems a little small to me?

ETA: Anyone know if Armour Piercing rounds kill those firken Rad Scorpions quicker?

Had one crash so far. It's not as bad as fallout 3 though.

Few odd little graphical glitches, best one was when I died I had a 3ft long next, bit like mister incredible from the fantastic 4!

Still trying to get used to instant aggro from factions if you wear the wrong outfit!

Accidentally turned up at the powder gangers base wearing NCR armor!

AFAIk no bobbleheads.

Caravan explained much better than the manual here: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Caravan_%28game%29
Still can't win at it though....
