Data Miner (Hack 50 Terminals) and Weaponsmith (Make every custom weapon). I am close to getting Data Miner, but I don't even know how I'm going to go about getting Weaponsmith. I have the Broken Steel DLC so I'm probably going to level up and buy that perk that gives you the schematics to every weapon, but then I have to find all the parts to build the weapons

Trust me, finding parts isn't that hard. You just need to know where and how to look.

Take the toy car for example. While usually difficult to randomly find, if you figure out that its a childs toy, and will therefore be around children, then its easier to find. Then you just rob a kids house, go to the houses in Minefield or the cannibal place, or the library. A vuala. Toy car.

Whats a vuala?

I think he meant, "And viola (often pronounced like 'wah-la'), Toy Car."
Of course, I could be wrong.

Also, Charlie, if you've got Broken Steel, then there is an area near the end that has pretty much every custom part you need, and a workbench. But you can only go there once, so I'd suggest hitting level 30 before you do if you want to take the Perk route. Be warned, though, that if you do use the perk, then all your schematics will be permanently stuck at level one, no matter what others you find.
Alternatively,
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_3_crafting
Takes you right to the page that tells you the location of all the schematics, and clicking on the components gives you their page with general locations on it. Of course, if you'd rather hunt them down on you own, that's good too.

Awesome, thanks guys I'll go off on the hunt for these tomorrow!

Good luck Charlie!

I have the PC version, so I don't really have the motivation to find all the little things.

Seriously thinking of picking up the GOTY edition of this at some stage in the hopefully near future

Sheesh, man. Focus!

Lol , I just saw it for a great price at the mall . Once I've knocked off a couple of games ( dead space and RAGE ) , I may get this . Don't want to overdo it and end up with too many unfinished Sp games . I may trade RAGE in for some extra cash . RAGE is alright but I've nearly finished the main missions and there isn't much else to other than job board quests and collecting stuff . I'm not going for a platinum on it and I got it for such an amazing price brand new that I'm confident of making a profit through selling it .

I can't believe I used to hate RPG's and now I can't get enough of them . I played Fallout 3 a while back at my friend's and he literally had to drag me away from the screen it was so fun .

Anyone care to share opinions on how good it is ? .

Don't worry Monkey , I will keep going on Demon's Souls , really getting into that game now . I am focussed on schoolwork at the moment and only really play on weekends now . Had no homework this weekend so got some quality gaming time in .

Fallout 3 is great! I would finish Demon's Souls first so you can concentrate on it. It plays like Skyrim - tonnes to do, tonnes to explore.

PS - Keep in mind Demon's Souls never really ends, it gets tougher and better as you go

I will definitely finish Demon's Souls first . Just that good gaming deals in NZ don't come often

I am definitely getting the GOTY Edition of this as my next game !!!!

Do, it's a damn good one.

My girlfriend got me FO3 regular edition for christmas along with FO:NV. I love FO3 so far and have like 50 hours of playtime.

I'm the maximum level and haven't beaten it yet, which is disappointing that the level cap is so low. I was going to buy some DLC for it since it's really fun (and because Broken Steel ups the cap to 30), so I check the PSN store to find...the DLC is still $10 per pack.

...you can buy the game of the year edition of the entire game for like $15 online.


So stupid.

I've heard that Broken Steel and Point Lookout are the best DLC's

Broken Steel feels awesome and you really get into it... and then it ends. It leaves you really wanting more.

Personally, I really like Operation Anchorage too since it adds the Gauss Rifle which is my favourite gun in the game. All the other plugins are meh.

I kinda want the Pitt just because I live in Pittsburgh.

Well, if you're okay with losing a piece of yourself...

he already lives in Pittsburgh whats left to lose?

Just a quick question, does this game lag a-lot and does it affect the overall game ?

Like any Bethesda title to date, it can lag in the late game. The more you change the world from its initial state, the worse it becomes. It's less so if you don't leave corpses full of stuff for the game to keep track of laying around. Or needlessly toss about items. Store things in containers and it helps too.
It's never been enough to keep me from playing though.

I has brought the GOTY Edition for this !!!, hope it is worth the money. In the last month I have finished DS1/2 and Rage so now I am intending to go RPGing for a while. Going to switch between this and Demon's Souls (which I am going to get back into tonight) .
It's weird that I used to hate RPG's.

I guess I never gave them much of a chance thinking that they were all just stat-based and with little action, boy was I wrong !! . I just love hoarding items and finding heaps of stuff and Skyrim gave me an addictive taste for it.

At least I don't live in Canadia.

Stop making up imaginary places that don't exist.

Like Canada?
