i tried renting this and 5 copies were out

I guess that's what i get for being a dick and keeping fable II for 2 weeks and having the only copy...got it @ midnight of release

instead i got golden axe: beast rider...

don't judge me!

Dogmeat? Is he kicking ass? (Serious)

And as far as karma is concerned, in the first two games, if you had really high karma, the bad guys would hate you and fire at you on demand.

If you had high karma you're respected by law enforcement, brotherhood, etc.

So far the karma thing seems to be right by you... I was too good to hire a helper or whatever but everyone really likes me. Mercenaries come after me from time to time because I'm "too good" or whatever.

Don't have Dogmeat yet? The dogmeat in the game is of the same bloodline of the one of the old games is what I heard though...

Dogmeat is a badass, he puts out so much damage and he has not even been hurt yet. I also have jerico (sp) with me.

Dogmeat was the **** in the originals. Had a ton of AP, did decent damage, especially to mutants, unarmored people, animals...and the best part is people would target him instead of you.

Yeah...I got stuck at one point in a lower level of one of the Vaults...tons of Mirelurks and two Mirelurk kings...couldn't even move but after restarting that over and over I finally got a critical hit one of them which gave me time to get out of the room...that room was crazy...Mirelurk kings are worse than Deathclaws, and two at the same time is crazy...

Deathclaws suck...I cry when I see one...any advice on killling them?

LOL, I just got tired... Then I don't have the strategy guide and I'm not going to buy it lol.

There are things happening to me I don't know what the hell it is lol..

Plus, I start to die, then it autosaves and then When I come back then I'm already dead again lol

It is a pretty bad ass game... But I'm trading it in for Gears of War 2 and another one

What type of stuff did you get stuck on? I was stuck a few times but now I am rolling with hundreds of rounds of ammo for nearly each weapon and some awesome armor. A lot of it is knowing where to go and where to avoid going...Quick traveling to Megaton often and stocking up on stimpaks is also a good option...Talk as many caps as possible out of people when doing missions.

**tolkaNo** · 11-06-2008, 03:55 PM

**KyleY** · 11-06-2008, 04:12 PM

As I was wandering my way down to the Arlington Library, I came across this overpass which was equipped with a raider and a turret.

So, I nuked it.

Fast learner is the one that gives you +1 in one of your core attributes right? As the game goes along that point is seemingly pretty important imo...

not really because your character maxes out at level 20

it might get you to level 20 a few hours early but then you waste 2 perk slots that could have been used for something thats going to stay with you after you've maxed out your levelling

Isn't fast learner the one that gives +1 skill points whenever you read a book?
