Poll: How do YOU Play Fallout 3

[Amnestic]

Aim for the face straight away on a deathclaw and they're likely to start taking chunks out of you.

I've played through F3, and actually haven't seen any Deathclaws either. Where are they?
As for the chunk-taking, the sound of that in earlier fallouts are still vivid in memory.

Seen some Yao Guai though. First time as a trader's pet.
That. is. badass.

Head up towards Vault 92/Old Olney (pretty far north-north-east, it's the urban looking area on your map). There should be one or two deathclaws around there. You're more likely to bump into them at higher levels though. There's a Deathclaw lair somewhere too, but I haven't found it yet.

Wait you're giving advice on how to get people killed? You sick, twisted person you.
The Dart Gun. That is all I have to say.
I'd never believe it if I didn't see it myself, how can a toy car on top of a paint gun be so awesome!?

Oh and today I'm off to Oasis! Wish me luck.
And tomorrow I'll visit the Dunwich Building, I heard that place was freaky.

Meh, Dart guns makes them too easy. Insta cripple=boring.

I always wondered how a dart to the face can cripple not one but both legs.
But meh, thank Hephaestus for that thing.

Poison.

The some way a stereotypical WoW player plays with girls, non-existently

I sincerely hope you're joking and aren't actually that stupid.

Oh, well forgive a RPG/Fallout newbie. Normally for me its "enemies there, shoot they ass". How hard can these creatures be? I mean even the supre-super mutie wielding a fire hydrant wasn't that bad with a few of the amoured people and my BB gun, I took it down. Its a plus if the creature is melee only. Killing enemies with melee only is like stealing candy from a baby.

How hard can they be?! They are the nastiest thing in the game! I'd rather fight three supermutant masters than one deathclaw! They're real tough, move fast, and hit real fuckin hard.

But I've already had to face 5 super-muties at a time, one with an RPG and the others with grenades, rifles and machineguns. They only killed me once and I had a save right before then so not much harm done. You guys make me want to kill some of these bastards. Sounds like an FPS nuts dream. I wonder what they have for loot. And are they people? Because why else would they have a town? I have seen some wannabe gangsta's, wearing spiked clothes and what not, down in the shopping mall, but they were only slightly tougher than the zombies, which are the easiest baddies ever. Two laser pistol shots to the head, that muties dead!

 

[orifice]

they have 'deathclaw hand' for loot! They dont have a town they're infesting it. I'd describe it as being a bit like a 8 foot tall lizardman!
The zombies kinda freak me out a little, despite not being that tough!

I've blown up and killed, stolen everything I could find. After blowing up Megaton I was "Very evil - Scourge of the wastelands" but after a bit of a wander around the top left of the map killing raiders, I'd collected so many ears, or... fingers, whichever one the bad one was, that when I gave them to the Regulators (there were about 37 earfingers altogether), I was instantly "Very good - Last best hope of humanity".

Despite being a slaver who casually set off a nuke to kill a town.

Fingers for good/lawbringer, ears for bad/contract killer.

 

[Bobbovski]

My character is a "Goody two-shoes", an extreme one at that. My character is so disgustingly good that even the other good guys either think she's annoyingly good even by their standards or that she's simply... stupid. She always does good stuff, and she usually decline the reward if she can. I think there's only one time that she's ever done something that caused her karma to decrease. The rest of the time her karma has either remained the same or increased.

If I ever replay Fallout 3 though I'll probably play a character that's the opposite of my current character. He's going to be the fear of all the wasteland! *mohahahaha*

 

[bainy_shmall]

first time playing through i was too nice, doing pretty much everything anyone asked of me. Going through again i have to make up for it, so i play like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-XGKgBVYDc

 

[The Kind Cannibal]

First time around I did what I did in Fable when I first played it. I had psychotic ADHD.

"Ohhhahhh, BIG GUN! *bam* Oh I'm sorry......"

Needless to say my short attention span and hair trigger did not make me to most likable person on the block.

What? I was trying to make a bad zinger while still getting the point across that I haven't played it yet xP

Thats the one. I had both perks and seeing as neither really serve to identify the person they used to belong to, I forgot which was which. Wasteland fingerprint reader, anyone?

 

[BBLIZZARD]

I play the first few missions, get bored, and return it to GameFly.

Umm, good for you? That's pretty irrelevant.
Anyway, I just do whatever I would do in a situation like that, but I have another character that just destroys everything for fun

 

[Senock]

I always play characters that are kleptomaniacs, my guy in fallout is "William, the good hearted kleptomaniac." He'll save your baby but then he'll steal its rattle. Seriously there isn't one person or shop I haven't stolen from.

 

[Slayer_2]

AHAHAHAHAHA, thats nice of you! And I'm glad to hear that the deathclaws are wimps. 8 feet, pfft, I was expecting 16-legged scorpion, 12 feet high, 4 giant pinchers, each with a MIRV launcher and 2 giant stingers. Also they love Blackjack but can't take loosing well. They'd also have armor 2 feet thick, which makes an Abrahams M1 hide and cry in the corner. Oh and they'd be very civilized, enjoying every conversation with a nice pot of tea... at least until you said you don't drink tea, then they'd NUKE YOUR ASS.

 

[thatotherguy2]

i made two characters and one was an evil person and one was an evil idiot and being evil was very benefical with using speech alot

 

[x434343]

Spoiler: Deathclaw

They're fast, deadly and stalwart.

I just shat my pants in fear.

Where can I find one?

 

[Slayer_2]

I've met two Deathclaws so far. One was terrorizing villagers by the shopping mart, two caps in his head put him down. The other was with some kinda Enclave trainer, I had to bring out the Flamer.

 

[Roamin11]

I started out a good guy but after my father died I went bad... really bad I couldnt blow up Megaton but there wasn't any one left breathing when I was done with it.
