Fallout 3 - The Discovering

[Internet Kraken]

You know if there is something you haven't found, I'm pretty sure most of us wouldn't have found it either. Did you find the Tenderizer is the Anchorage memorial?

Yeah you're probably right there. Fallout 3 murdered my social life for about a month.

(yep found the tenderiser)

What about the Board of Education? Have you found all the Bobbleheads?

I have one not many people know about....

A hidden area behind Takoma Industrial.

Go out the back of the factory in Takoma industrial and jump in the canal, there is a ledge on the other side you can climb. It leads right along the wall and then you turn left then right and a huge irradiated area opens up with some ghouls and an interesting back story which I shall not ruin here.

I found that place, I didn't think anyone else knew about it, its quite cool.

Yeah I loved the sad little back story too.

Can you describe in more detail how to get to that place? i am incredibly interested.

Hmm, well do you know where Takoma industrial is? You have to use the metro from the back of GNR to get to Takoma Park, then follow it to the end and you'll find Takoma industrial. I can't do a map so google it if you don't know how to get there!

Instead of going out into the open area with the Super Mutant Behemoth, go through the large factory to the other side, and the ledge is very near the door you come out. You can also get across by jumping on the ruined metal structure in the canal.

And if you download Point Lookout, secrets are revealed in the Dunwich Building.

Do you mean about, or in?

I've already finished the Dunwich building, and just downloaded PL.

I don't wanna ruin it for you, but I will tell you to go north west at the beginning, from the boardwalk pier and talk to a guy in the large creepy house, or find a woman in a tent on the beach due west of the boardwalk. Either of these NPCs should give you the quest.

Anyone remember the Radroach King?

 

[squidbuddy99]

I dont know about you guys, but Vault 106 scared the crap out of me. That and Tranquility Lane are the definition of 'mindf***'. I spent the whole time just looking for that damn gas mask, just so I could get my sanity back and actually scavenge.

I killed the king and stole and his mini nuke.

 

[Captain Pancake]

The Lost Oasis quest, you can only get it by killing a cultist sniper miles away from anywhere

actually, there are a few ways to get it. I was given the quest when two wanderers told me about it, then tried to kill me because they couldn't share the secret.

But you might try the reilly's rangers quest, at the end you either get unique body armor or a unique minigun, both of which are pretty snazzy.

Cheers man...

You can haz cookie

Funny thing though - In vault 106, you know how at some points in it your screen goes purple and stuff?
Well my friend thought something was up with his monitor, and spent 45 minutes trying to fix it. Lol.

Well don't let him near you when you're doing the mian quest in Point Lookout, as there is one moment that might make him have a go at your monitor!

Ah yes, Dunwich Building was wierd. It had ghouls and the place was just creepy as fuck. Doors suddenly open/close without your intervention. It's dark, and you get the Holotapes of the last person who survived in that building, you get a glimpse of his descent into madness. And finally

Spoiler

You get to see the survivor, only in a ghoulified form. Strangely enough, killing him gives you good karma.

i think it's becuase he went evil from being insane

I think I missed the RadRoach King. (*gasp*! And here I thought I'd done everything!) Where do I go?

And this mysterious "Behind-Tacoma-Industrial" thing. I must investigate immediately!

--------

There's another friendly Super-Mutant (besides Fawkes) wandering the Wasteland that you can talk to. Uncle Leo. Kinda nifty.

What about the Board of Education? Have you found all the Bobbleheads?

Yes and Yes. I actually found all the Bobbleheads twice, since my achievements got deleted after the first time (long story).

I've forgotten is name now, but there's another friendly Super-Mutant (besides Fawkes) wandering the Wasteland that you can talk to. Uncle-something. Kinda nifty.

Uncle Leo. I've heard of him, but never met him. Then again, I've had almost no random encounters (bombed wastelander and Sam Warrick only). I haven't even found the Firelance.

Second Post - What is the reference to the "Dunwich" building? i have been through that place and cleaned it out, but it seems like there is a bigger picture to it all that i am just not getting, can someone please expain?

It's named after 'The Dunwich Horror', a story by H. P. Lovecraft. The story involves hellish goat-people as the result of incest and letting an Old One impregnate a guy's daughter. It's about as scary as everything else Lovecraft wrote, including Cthulhu and letters to his mom.

The building is broken down, dilapadated, and employs non-Euclidean geometry at some points. That makes it scary. Also the ghost stuff.

And the Obelisk, and Jaime's logs.

Yes and yes... aaargh! I actually found all the Bobbleheads twice, as I have two main characters. I have no life...

The alien ship is awesome. And the alien blaster is even better...limited ammo though. There is somewhere else you can get ammo for it, but i forgot where that is...i think it's the same place you get the MIRV.

It's in a large crater north west of Jury Street. It's not marked as an area on your pipboy but it's lying underneath an overturned truck.

There is also more ammo in the Enclave Mobile base in BS.

 

[RanD00M]

Vault 93

Vault 93

Is that the one with all the Gary's, if it is then I wholeheartedly agree with you. My favorite Gary was Gary No. 1
