DLC already? I'm still waiting for price drops for Fallout 3. Also, I bet there'll be a 'Fallout 3: Special Edition' released eventually, at a budget price and with the DLC already on it.

Sounds like some awesome stuff, but I wish it was in the game originally...

All I hear is "Screw PS3 Owners..."

Guess I'll have to Goozex the 360 version.

No love for us PS3 owners. Bullocks.

Guess I'll just pie-rat the PC version.

Is the Broken Steel pack going to be free, because that's some bullshit right there. It's pretty obvious that Bethesda put in a level 20 cap and denied people the ability to continue on after the end to release those features as DLC down the line.

Considering mods on PC have already removed the level cap within days of release and allowed continued play after completing the main quest I don't see why this couldn't have been patched in for all versions. What people wanted according to feedback? I find it hard to believe Bethesda weren't well aware of the feedback they would receive while still in development.

(Spoilers)

How do you extend/complete the main story with the expansions when (Spoilers!) you fucking die at the end of the game? (end spoilers)

@ TheComedian85

Thats the worst spoiler prevention tactic ever, especially given how big of a goddamned spoiler it is...
At least this post will get that spoiler off the front page...

@thecomedian85
you just load up your last save before you finished the main quest?
@joe
there are multiple endings..and the ending doesn't even matter just reload up your last save and explore / side quest all you want.

what I think sucks is that after I beat it I went back and explored everywhere and killed so many guys but since I was at 20 already I got no EXP. so now that they finally raise the cap.. all that killing was for nothing.. they should have kept track of my EXP so when it is raised I level up as I should have. why have a level cap in an open ended game.. it makes no sense at all.

Still waiting for the magical patch that unbreaks the game before I even consider DLC at this point.

Damn straight - why throw good money after bad - the game is virtually unplayable on the 360

there is a cod <3

@Murumasa123: prepare to lose your mind man, you could totally pick stuff up and move it around in Oblivion. It wasn't a toggle like in Fallout 3 though, you have to hold the button in...I believe it's front bumper on the 360.

also,
Is the game really horribly buggy on the 360 or something? I've played it on PS3 and PC and had no problems at all except it crashes every now and then on PC.

Is it really that hard to imagine how the post-ending game would start?

!!POSSIBLE SPOIL'ANS BELOW!!

*fade in from white with Elder Lyons hovering over you*
"Thank goodness you've finally awoken! You've been in a coma for weeks since Sarah forced the door of the purifier and dragged you to safety. Alas, her actions have cost her dearly and she too is unconscious and on her death bed. I need you to undertake a long and contrived quest for a special piece of medical equipment to heal her. Then we can talk about you joining the Brotherhood..."

Was that so hard? I'm mostly annoyed that I have to wait until Spring until I can actually continue playing with my main character.







...Also, I liked the ending. It needed to be a fuckton longer, detailing the aftermath of my exploits, but I honestly enjoyed what was there. My disappointment was in there not being enough of it.

I pirated it to play through on PC, but as soon as they re-release it with these awesome DLC expansions included in some special edition, I'm all over it. I love the game, and by the time they re-release it, the mod tools should be good to go as well. Woohoo!

I got it the PC version and found a command that lets you raise the level cap. So I loaded my save and carried on exploring after I completed and now I'm level 30something. I also made me giant for a while heh.

There's even one to make Dogmeat invincible, which relieves the stress of there being no command for "Don't fucking attack everything in sight!"

I tried to be open-minded about the ending, considering all the grumblings I heard in the past couple of weeks. I finally beat the game last night, and it sure was underwhelming. I loved the entire game, despite its shortcomings and glitches, but the ending was not satisfying at all.

I'm definitely interested in this DLC. All of it will probably be worth picking up, but I'm especially looking forward to raising the level cap and continuing after the main quest.

Well I put 120 hours into this game. I ran the entire world down at the lvl 20 cap. I had it freeze my xbox like 3 imes int he entire time I played. Otherwise I never really had a problem on my 360. The ending sucked (as far as the story part) but overall the game was amazing. And there are multi ways to finish this game dumbasses.



SPOILER ALERT















YOU DONT HAVE TO DIE!!!! I dont know why everyone says you have to die? Send the bitch in and continue on with the story when the DLC comes out. Although I am VERY EVIL because in a world that is decimated by nuke fallout, Im not shaking hands... Im shaking faces with the Terrible Shotgun.

Also I didnt like that I couldnt get all the bobbleheads since I blew up Megaton but whatever.

Im only missing the speech and 20 bobblehead achievements so I think I can clearly say I have devoted a asston of time to this game. DLC seems cool but I guess I am pissed since I uncovered the entire world (YES EVERY FREAKING PIECE.. not with perk but with getting perk saving it and going back to my main game to get the Vats perk, then reload every now and again to see where a new location is) and now I can never have all those kills add to my level. Guess Ill start again sometime down the road WITH DLC and be a nice guy :P

Yay, paying movey to level up is fucking awesome!

I realyl don't care that the PS3 isn't getting this.

Spoilers, etc...







@ Goon

I DID send the chick in, people weren't really so pissed at whether or not you died, they were pissed that the game doesn't keep going

@ Bluemeep

Yeah, I considered that as a possible continuance as well, but what if you used the poison or whatever the hell it was that Eden gave you, wouldn't all the brotherhood be dead (I'm just assuming it worked as he/it said it did here, since I didn't actually do this myself)

firstly @ Clown that would be hard considering they didnt buy the rights for an mmo. to a few other they are just bunging the raise of lvl cap in with the dlc not making you buy it sepretly it is stupid they chose the 3rd to put it in though.

I can't fucking wait...

awesome, awesome, awesome
