Is there any way to get to GNR from friendly station? i seem to run around in circles, also about talking to people. why has the ability to converse with others gone. i seemed to have lost it.

on my first attempt i got to GNR but it was in ruins and brotherhood of steel had killed all the mutants. but i had no way of finding mad dog. because the building was rubble.

any help would be great.

cheers peter

It is set some years in the future, in 2277 (Wikipedia is your friend) 300 years after the nukes fell in the game world. The weapons are a mix of more traditional tech and futuristic weapons. The H&K G3 assault rifle (named Assault Rifle) and a slight AK47 variant (named the Chinese assault rifle) make appearances with other guns such as a 10mm pistol, a double barreled shotgun and a bolt action rifle to name a few. The more futuristic ones are much more "junky" meaning they are visibly made from items not intended for firearms or weapons making. There are laser pistols and rifles and for instance a very cool mini nuke launcher. And to answer the nuclear fallout is worldwide. Back to the weapons as I forgot about the stile. All the weapons either look old (the ones based on real weapons), are a mismatch of parts or have a campy 50's esque design to them (though this comes in more with the look of the world and the style of dress and appearance in the people). That's the prominent art style much like in the others and in games like Bioshock. It is a great vibe in my opinion.

i found a good way maintain your health level annd keeping stimpaks for emergency only is to fast travel to a known place e.g friendship station where there is a bed and you can recover. i normally save the game i am in each time i kill a opponent and it save me going through the whole lot again.

if i get killed. i can go to a previous saved level and reload from there, so it is useful to save near the place you are in while your health is good.

DUDE, there's so many ways to get help on this issue...a walkthrough, websites, etc. I'm not sure even though I beat the game. Have you tried under ground around the metros and stuff like that?? you shouldn't pack the game in. The arrow should help you find it also. When its blinking you are getting closer to your destination.

hello everyone,

this is my first post on GameSpot, so bear with me as a newbie :) .. my question is very simple, i'm playing Fallout3 for about 3 days now, at first i hated it, but i'm getting the hang of it.

i was able to discover a few location, but i guess i was cribbeled and lost a foot. i used the med. shot, i slept and i paid 50 caps to the doctor in megaton to heal me, but I STILL CAN"T RUN nor can i FAST Travel .... i keeps on saying that i can't fast travel while i'm overencoubmeded.

any help, any ideas .. your help is greatly apperciated.

overemcumbered simply means your have to much "stuff" go to your weapons or apparrell and remove or repair. or go to your misc and dump some nonessentials.

it has nothing to do with your health

for a new question it is best to start a new one because if your posting in the middle of this one most people wont even see your question.

to answer your question you are carrying to much weight, you need to store some items or sell
