help with fallout 3 trophies

i haven't used any of the guides yet, and i've got most of the trophies.  it's a very easy game. maybe i should have stuck it on hard or very hard :S

some trophy locations though is what im using the guide for.  i don't have the time to look in EVERY location, so for the last few trophies, i'll be using a bit of the guides.

yeah , who has time to walk around the wasteland when killzone 2 so close …. guide was good to find bobbleheads , schematics and behemoths… i think they should have made Explorer perk available from a low level , not only from level 20 (by that time you're almost finished…)

im not saying there is anything wrong with using guides, but i prfer to play the game first, then use a guide later if i still need something when i've finished it.  i got about 40 trophies without using a guide to begin with.

i just think they are not needed and that they take a lot of the fun out of playing the game.  the time i spent getting the last few trophies while looking at a guide was NOT enjoyable.

yeah , no prob , i know what you mean…i got most of the trophies without guides , i think i just get a little touchy on the subject of fallout , my only plat… …playing with a guide is kinda like going back to school and doing homework…

Use your vats and target their heads. Explosives are good against them. Aslo sneaking and getting them shot in the head without them being aware helps…You could always put the game on 'very easy'

today i've become fed up with this game and it's bad quality i payed £45 for this i've nearly done all the trophies but i skipped a few early quests trying to discover 100 locations it made me do tranquility lane cos i stumbled upon vault 112 or 114 wichever it is anyway last mission with that big robot liberty w/e and it freezes at the same point everytime meaning i now have to go to a friends house sign in as me and use their copy just to complete it i mean cmon i wanted the moment i completed it to be a special moment where i could feel i'v acomplished something not a moment of relief where i cant wait to get to game to sell it for £12… EFFORT!

Woah, slow down there my friend. I also completely disagree with your statement. Fallout 3 has got to be one of the best games I've played yet. Yes, I will admit that it may have minor performance issues, but these issues no way spoil the overall game. The graphics are good, the gameplay is good, the combat is good, infact the only thing i hate about it is when you walk miles being followed by a damm radscorpion, turn round and it scares the crap out of you lolz. But still, I suppose it's a bit like Marmite. “Ya either love it or ya hate it”   

woah woah woah…. Calm the heck down guys!  although i don't agree with smarto's accusations, I also believe that he is entitled to his opinion of the game.

Personally, I played it for about 60 hours or so i think, and it DID freeze a lot.  maybe four times for me.  I once lost 4 hours work on fallout 3 when it froze and I didn't save it.  I had to use the closest autosave, which saved me about 2 hours worth of gameplay.  so yes, it does feeze, and it can be very frustrating.

What I don't understand, however, is why the hell you bought the game for £45.  You're clearly over exaggerating.  No where in england will sell a ps3 game, even brand new for £45.  you can pick up ps3 games now for the very usual price of £17.99.  or if it's brand new on the first couple weeks of its release, roughly £29.99 – 39.99 (MAX). 

Another thing that baffles me is why you skipped a few quests in the beginning to get a trophy you'd normally get just by playing the game.  by doing that, you'd just set yourself up to story redundancies (as with most RPGs).  

and bad quality?  I think you've just got the wrong word there.  I'm guessing you were trying to make a point with the freezing up… so I figure you meant to say consistency.  Yeah the game is a little inconsistent, but since you left the story in a rather foolish attempt to get a trophy you would have gotten anyway, I'd say that's not a very accurate assumption of you. 

I also found that the terrain is a bit bland… everything is indeed the same colour with a slight greenish-grey tint to it.  but what do you expect?  unicorns and rainbows?  Well actually if you go to Eden, there ARE trees, and it's quite a nice place filled with a bit more colour.

I could keep on writing about all this… but it's 3:30AM and i can't be bothered to. lol.

well… yeah if you go to shops….

but why do that when it's cheaper online?

play.com – cod4 = 29.99

and I've never paid for a brand new ps3 game above 39.99.  and the usual now averages about £35.

my point was… how long as fallout 3 been out for now?  there is no way you'd have to buy it for more than £20.

i didnt mean any of that in a way which made the game seem not good i was very angry at the time and i had the game before trophies so i accidently found vault 112 but it's all good cos i did the last mission now and yes i think you're correct in stating that i meant consistency but all in all a good game i think my ps3 is slowly dieing on me making the game freeze more than it normally would but yeah when this games completely out of the way onto cod waw trophies yaaay
