Fallout 3 question, any answer appreciated.

...damn your right that doesn't make sense... oh well I'd rather swim then drown.

There's a reason this has never been pointed out of course... Now some cocky game developer is going to make it that if you have too much shit in your inventory... You'll never swim again lest you drown! Bwahaha.

Only a Communist questions such things.... COMMUNISM IS A LIE!

Death is a preferable alternative to Communism.

Look me in the eyes and say you wouldnt be pissed off if you drown everytime your big toe so much as stroked the top of the water.

Oh, hell no! It would be like playing Assassin's Creed all over again!
EDIT: Damn, ninja'd. Sorry man.

Look, if we keep picking holes like this, I think we're just going to end up ruining it. It's only a game, after all. Anyway, you can hardly take Fallout 3 at face value, I mean, since when does massive radiation cause anything other than immediate and painful death?

Alternate universe, radiation causes mutations and other 50's sci fi staples

Swimming is a completely natural instinct, the main reason most people that claim they cannot swim is because they mentally convince themsleves they cannot.

Also it just a game. If you want to be technical, how is it that there are people with dark/tanned skin living in Vault 101 without a single tanning bed or window?

what about birds they can fly first time around ?? what about gentic programming virtual reality like in tranquilty lane ??? we have only been in the first few levels of the vault so really its a plot hole but its intrestiing

Fairly simple question, in Fallout 3, your character pretty much leaves the vault and goes into the world. In that world, he runs, jumps, and... swims? how does the character in Fallout 3 know how to swim, they make no mention of a swimming pool in any of the vaults, and you are not born with the natural talent, so how does the Vault-Dweller know how to swim like a fish?

why would you swim in RADIOACTIVE WASTE besides it rather easy to learn it isnt rocket science unless your swimming in rocket fuel

I made him swim, with the controller, i willed his muscles to move in the appropriate manner to swim. same way you can make people levitate in Black and White .

Someone who can lockpick and hack computers, is far more complicated than those who can swim.
