Anybody got an idea with files I'd have to overwrite to get an English version instead of the German one? My hope is I won't have download 8gb to do so but do some selective copying.
No its not pirating if the retards at Ubisoft lie to your face and get you to buy the german version under false pretenses!

I like it a lot so far. I dunno if it is *really* a FALLOUT game, but it is a good game anyway.

Yeah, I am going in to it trying to think of it as Oblivion with Guns and not Fallout 3, and thats helping me enjoy the game and not be upset at the loss of the amazing Fallout humor. |

I found it amusing that after taking the GOAT it said that I was a tattoo artist. Someone at Bethesda is watching me!  Yeah, great game so far. |

I'm REALLY enjoying it so far. There is -some- humor. But you really have to be looking for it.

Finally, I dont' like the Achievements popups. That is totally immersion breaking in an otherwise UI-lite RPG. I appreciate the purpose, but I'm not a completionist. I forgot to poke around Options to see if I could turn that noise off.
I only figured out at the end of my playtime last night I could attach this thing to my Xbox Live account. I didnt get a single achievement all night. I am in Megaton. Should I have got one by now and didn't or did they not show because I wasnt signed in to Xbox Live? Good question. I have no idea what happens if you aren't logged into Xbox Live as it pertains to Achievements. I've gotten three so far (GOAT, Escape! Vault 101 Citizenship Reward). I gotta imagine that if you've left Vault 101 you'd have gotten two of those. As far as I can tell, you can't complete the game without turning 10 years old nor leaving home  . So yea, could be you not being signed in or some such. I don't mind getting the Achievements. I just don't want to hear about while I'm taking in the scenery with all settings max'd /epeen. |

Achievements should unlock as long as you are signed into your Xbox with a profile, on Live or not. If you have a profile on Live and sign into the offline version, the game will credit you with the achievement and make it available to view to others when you get on Live next, but it will be without a date for when it was unlocked.

Maybe the question is about getting achievements when playing on a PC, since there's some kind of sign-in-to-Live-over-your-PC-instead functionality apparently?

Never heard of that before and don't see how that could happen. That would completely change my gaming habits if that was the case.

You have to sign in to live to get achievements. I didn't know that, so I didn't create an account until after I had escaped the Vault. Then I had to move my saves, because it stores them by Live profile.

Ain't that a bitch. I thought for sure Bethesda wouldn't go that route. Now I feel stupid for buying the game. New rule: I'm pirating everything from here on out until DRM rules relax. Can't wait to do another format/reinstall after I'm done with Fallout3, just like the one I did after SPORE. Fuuuck. |

I started over, which didn't bother me much. Still, it doesn't seem to be syncing my XBL gamerscore very well. I haven't seen it in my sig, and when logging on to XBL from my 360, it only showed the updated score once I inspected my gamertag.  Anyhow, didn't know the GOAT was an achievement or I wouldn't have skipped it the second time through. Ohh well, guess I'll grab that one on my future female, evil ninja run through. semi-fake edit: Ohh, there it is. Neat. |

Skipping the intro would work just like in Oblivion (oddly enough!): make a save just before you leave the Vault.
So far it's not as horrible as I feared. The lunchbox is neat-o!

Yeah. That was annoying. Having paid for the game and then needing to download a patch to get by the asstastic security feature is a slap in the face. You Bethsoft bitches are lucky I like it so goddamn much. |

Like to warn anyone thinking of downloading the Reloaded release...
Apparently people are finding out that the setup.exe and falloutlauncher.exe both contain trojans.
|
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

This game has me by the nuts. There are issues but they are minor compared to the fact that everything feels pretty good right now.

It does have Securom, told me I had an emulator running first time I installed (which I didn't). Also had a direct link on the same message to a Securom patch to get past that error.
There's already a mod on the Bethesda boards - it removes the little "something interesting over here!" markers from your compass.

I started over, too, because of the save game issue. I only did the inside stuff anyway so no biggie, though it nearly killed me to go to my birthday party again. No worries, though, you can get your frustration out by shooting the hell out of your dad and Jonas when they give you the BB gun. They don't die but they yell and complain and they get all bloody. I might have lost some Karma but I needed to express my displeasure.
I am sad about now being infected with a malignant rootkit. I was sure they said no Securom! Bastard Assfucktardos. I hate them.

Let us know how well that works out for you. It won't. I posted like a tard last night because I was pissed off. The fact is, I dislike DRM practices about as much as I dislike stealing. I could forsee a time in the near future where it will be easier for me to just stop gaming altogether. It would certainly be more relaxing, that's for sure. What a shame. |

God, I love how Mean fallout is sometimes.
Early, early game random encounter spoilers
This load of the game has been MUCH nicer about giving me good small guns, however, so I don't feel as forced into energy weapons.

I'm liking it a lot more than I thought I would. It has some issues with the way dialogue trees flow at times, and small arms is having some issues, but overall, fun as hell. Some of the (I assume) random encounters are weird though. Like coming across 4 raiders surrounding a fifth in their underwear, and the one in their underwear being the first to charge me.
One thing I am disappointed in so far is that taking the special dialogue option perks has only netted me one unique dialogue option each. Maybe I need to find a bigger settlement or something, though.
Nice touches include extra dialogue options depending on stat values, including stuff like strength or endurance. Also, the random mutated critters seem a lot more dangerous in this game than I remember them being in the old games.

Pro tip. Falloutlauncher.exe requires you to have the DVD in your drive. Fallout3.exe which just launches the game and not the splash screen does NOT. So just change your desktop shortcut target to fallout3.exe and you're CD (if not secureROM) free.
