Well I am loving this. Played about 3 hours or so now and really enjoying it. Was quite overwhelming at first, this huge area and no idea where to start but once you get going in a quest, you learn the ins and outs of everything. I'm currently trying to find out what happened to my Dad, is that the main point of the story yeh?
Came across a
when trying to get to the radio station earlier and it was crazy. Luckily I found a
for it shortly before off a dead Brotherhood soldier or something. First time I used it,
Died instantly and had to go way back to where the last save was. Learned the next time though and stood further back! Love that weapon now!
I've now just met Three Dog and I'm
, wonder what scary stuff is waiting for me on this quest.
But to discuss the game itself now. Graphics first of all are fairly decent, nothing amazing but quite good considering the size and scale of the world! Just a pity about the loading times but I guess that couldn't be avoided, I wonder if the new 360 install option will speed them up much?
Loving the combat. VATS is so great, first time I heard about it, I thought it sounded and looked pish. I actually slated this whole game when I first heard about it from a mate like 2 weeks ago. Then he told me it was Bethseda so I looked into it and I'm so glad I did! Now do the action points always stay the same or can you level them up over the game too so you can do more at once in the VATS? I think I need to find some weapons dealers or shops though as I'm scrounging for ammo alot and fancy a good whack of bullets for the assault rifle!
I'm still a bit confused and not 100% sure what to do when levelling up, but I'm going with the flow anyway and seem to be managing fine, not sure what perks to choose though, I remember readying somewhere saying that some are pointless and shouldn't pick them.
So overall, it's an awesome game so far that seems just HUGE!
