things you don't use...

I hardly ever use mines. It seems like they delay too long to hurt a running enemy. It also seems cheating to place them in areas I know an enemy will spawn, say Talon Company mercs outside train stations.

Any kind of Big Gun, about the only time i've used them was during the last Broken Steel mission when i used the Tesla Cannon to destory the Vertibirds after being killed by the troops they dropped the first time, otherwise they just seem to heavy to bother with and most eat though ammo way to quick.

Landmines and Grenades, it's not just in FO3 either but in every game i play if it has landmines and grenades i'll use them maybe once or twice during the entire game and will never even consider using them again.

Mines .. i kill my enemies before they have a chance to try ruunning at me

anything that doesnt die in 1 vats aint gionna die to a mine


and sawn off shotguns they float off the side of your leg and you hold them like a 10 mm when useing the "LT" to get a more precise aim .. i might of use dit more if my character would hold it liek he does a double barrled shotgun (its basically same weapon shorter barrel)

I never use mines, the Fat Man, the Missle Launcher, Flamer, 'Ol Painless, Plasma Pistol, Sawn Off Shotgun, 10mm Submachine Gun, or the Double Barreled Shotty. Why? Because I have no need for them. :D

You don't use Ol' Painless!!

I never use Big Guns because they are boring and heavy. I don't use unarmed either because it is an immersion killer for me. Killing people with 10 punches in my opinion is stupid.

I don’t use the iron. Why? I hate to iron, besides, my Wasteland Wander outfit is so tattered and full of holes, a snazzy looking crease might draw too much attention.

10 punches?!
Ahhh Grasshopper, you must first discipline your mind and become proficient in the art of the Iron Fist before you can become a master of weaponless combat. We will speak of this matter at greater length when you are able to snatch the pebble from my hand.

shops
they are just pointless. no need to buy anything. ever.
it's all just laying around in easy reach.
it's an "immersion" killer every time i see anybody selling anything.
it just doesn't make sense, either the shops need to go, or all the loot everywhere needs to go.
then the economy still needs fixing.

Mentats.

What do they even do for you? Never could figure out the effect... maybe I'll look up how to use 'em in the wiki someday. I just sell 'em along with about 90% of the other drugs available in FWE. Actually, I guess they have very high value/weight, so that's what they're good for.

* Most chems, though I will use Med-X or the occasional Psycho.
* Shotguns. Charon's is great, but they don't work for me.
* Laser rifles. Plasma is better.
* Hunting or normal assault rifles. Chinese is better.
* Pistols, aside from the occasional Laser pistol to back up my Plas-gun. I like the Protectron's Gaze for this.
* Alcohol. What's the point?
* Butch as a follower.
* My first Infirmary.

Companions. They mess up my mojo.

Rivendell and companion sneak up on Enclave outpost. Rivendell looks through his scope, assessing the situ... :gun: :gun: :gun: companion opens fire and charges in!!! Rivendell sighs heavily and bangs his head repeatedly on nearest boulder.

Yeah, what is that about? Even in FWE a beer doesn't even quench your thirst! It should up your damage resistance (until it wears off, then all the damage you took should be 10% worse) and make your aim stagger around.

It's for role-playing purposes.

I don't use the Gauss Rifle because the hand crank is not included in any animation. There, I said it out loud.

I collect Stealth Boys, but don't use 'em. I like confrontations. :rock:

Nukes never get used either. Not because I'm a tree-hugging peace-preacher, it's just that they look so awesome strewn about my pad like a fatalist.

And Scotch. I'm a Bourbon/Vodka man myself. B)

I don't use mines. I decorate my house with them. One time I had a character with the floor covered in 30 standard mines and 4 plasma mines. She fired a 32 pistol at one of them, and the whole house just went up in smoke.
