Or you can also make a home in one of the many abandon buildings in the wasteland. All you need for a home is a usable bed, some safe storage, and non-respawning enemies. The only downside is you won't get the Well Rested bonus for sleeping in a bed and you won't get to buy cool upgrades for your home.

Some places I'd reccoment as a good home:

Super-Duper Mart
The Abandon Houses in Minefield
Metro Stations with Beds

Won't items disappear on abandoned houses' containers?

To get acces to your house on Megaton just talk to sheriff's son. The brat will give you caps and key.

Another bonus on your house on Megaton is that you can have new hair cuts (with the robot)

Containers in Fallout don't respawn, so you can put your stuff anywhere you want to.

Geez.

That's the reason for massive amount of bugs?

And that's the reason for huge size savegames too.

But thats awesome! I always threw my stuff away.

Do the corpses disappear?

Not usually, though there are those that do for some reason I'm not quite sure of. For instance, the other day a Scavenger got killed in the Wasteland when I was nearby. I checked his body and he had all kinds of goodies. But it was quite late and I was already close to being overloaded so I went back to Megaton for the night. When I came back in the morning, his body was gone along with all the stuff he was carrying. I should have looted him when I had the chance and just dropped everything on the ground nearby.

If the corpse disappeared, the dropped items would disappear too. No?

There was no container neaby? So you could drop some items inside and come back later.

No, once you remove them from his inventory they become unique items and aren't dependent on the actor.

Not really, though I could have walked to where there was one. But it was dark and I had just gone through a series of several intense encounters, and I didn't want to take the chance of getting ambushed while loaded down. So I figured it could wait until morning when I could at least see anything that might be coming my way, and I could get rid of the load I already had on me. Too bad, I could have made quite a few caps with all that stuff.

If you help the Gouls at Tenpenny Tower you get a Goul mask and a penthouse in the top of the Tower with another Wadsworth and loads of loot. My Wadsworth at Megaton was so annoying I deactivated him.

As you play the game collect all the bobbleheads and special guns, armor, and equipment you can find. Don't sell any of it. There are two bobbleheads you can't get after the quests - the Medical bobblehead and the one at Ravenrock. I collected them all excet those two.
