I played vegas a while ago but stopped playing for some reason, anyway I ordered the ultimate edition which I'll get tomorrow or next day.


Just curious how the DLC items work? Does it just make the game map larger? How will I know which of the DLC's im entering into and how will I avoid them in early levels?

In F3 I tended to just explore alot without doing much quests... I seemed to skip half the story by meeting someone somewhere on map... Is there a danger of missing many quests by exploring alot?

Thankyou,

All of the DLCs add entirely new areas that you get from Radio transmissions. It specifically says that you're entering a DLC zone.

You won't like Vegas if you love exploring and hate questing/storyline involvement.

In addition to what Zerker said, the messages will also tell you the minimum recommended level for the DLCs, so as long as you're reading everything you'll be fine.

If you mean in the base game, then no, there isn't that problem, since many quests can only be found by exploring. There is a part of the game where you can reach it first and accidentally skip the preceding quests, but you'd only be skipping the first act of the main quest.

I don't hate questing... I just like exploring to find some nice loot..

So I'm guessing the ultimate edition makes the map on the pip boy much larger??

tHnka for replies

Yeah, Fallouht 3 is better suited for exploration and lack of an engaging storyline. Which is good, because when you've mistaken that jug of vodka for water, Fallout 3 is far more interesting since story won't get in the way!
