A Few Observations, Questions, and Moanings :)

Moanings

1) I KILLED BIG TOWN! I did not mean to, but I showed them how to lay down mines. I left hoping they were OK. I went and finished up Moira's Survival task I was interrupted for and when I came back to Big Town, everyone was dead! I actually contemplated reloading and staying until the Mutant Attack happened. Maybe my next playthrough I'll do that :smile:

Questions

2) Stimpaks:

Can they be created (not via console commands)?

3) Weapons:

I feel like a walking armory! I do not want to leave anything behind for 2 reasons. One, to help in repairs and two, I seem to run out of ammo quickly. Ammo management I try to avoid automatic guns. That rips through ammo in seconds flat. When I do use them, I try 1-3 shot bursts, but when I have a super-mutant at me with a hammer, I just let 'er rip :smile: Otherwise, I am having trouble keeping myself in ammo and unable to concentrate on 2-3 weapons. Can we make ammo?

4) Is there a vendor near GNR Headquarters? I am currently there loaded down with over 1200 pounds of crap. I do not fancy hoofing it back to Megaton! It makes really tough to fight when one cannot run and stimpaks quickly dwindle :smile:

Observation

I am having great fun with this game. For the first time in a long, long time, I find myself glued to my PC.

I have pretty much sneaked my way through the wastelands thus far, loaded down with scavenge. It is a slow, s-l-o-w trek :smile: (An aside: You can NOT catch a caravan while encumbered!)

I really like how Three Dog keeps track of my doings. I was disappointed when I met him that he had no toaster to fix! Also, along that same line, but not as funny, Three Dog talks about "Helping the good fight" in order to get info about my Dad. I wish I could tell him, "You've been broadcasting my contributions since I left the vault! Recall the Atom Bomb? How about Big Town? And then there was Arefu and Grayditch!"

So far, I'm loving this game. Best $6.50 I ever spent!

[EDIT]

Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays :)

You can't craft ammo or stimpaks in Fallout 3. The only things you can make are the weapons from schematics, which you can find/ buy around the wasteland. I can't remember any vendor near GNR. For some reason I have a vague memory about the Big Town residents being dead is a bug.
