S1500 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 So I'm in day 2 of playing this, and like it so far. I'm using my game save that is prior to exploring The Pitt, thus no special weapons + perks from that. I'm wondering if I should just take a detour back to the Pitt & get my guns/xp, etc and then continue on with the Broken Steel storyline. Plenty of XP to be earned in that DLC. Anyone else playing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1500 Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 Nobody's playing this? I'm still way deep into it. With the level cap removed, it makes this DLC a bit more fun, as you can move around the main map and level up. Funny story happened with the water delivery. I was at Megaton and there was a BoS + 2 scavengers with a parked water shipment. Some guys from Megaton demanded the water, but the BoS wanted no part of it(it was destined elsewhere). A gun battle breaks out, and the BoS guys win out. So I follow this water caravan shipment. The shipment runs into some Brotherhood Outcasts, a car blows up in the crossfire, and all that was left was just one Brotherhood Outcast. Everyone else was blown to kingdom come. Sadly, I could not recover that Gatling laser that was discarded. This DLC seems to have a lot more content than the previous two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I've been meaning to get this but I wanted to see how people rated it first. The last two looked pretty bad so I didn't bother. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I've got it but haven't played it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelio Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I'll be into it in the next few days. Just bought the 360 version so I can get the DLC. Too bad, 100 or so hours in on the PS3 version. It would have rocked to be able to play the dlc on it with 30000 bottle caps and a full armory! Oh well... Shit happens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest So far, Broken Steel is better than the last 2.But I like all things Fallout 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMongeR Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I've finished all 3 DLC missions and in my opinion Broken Steel is by far the best of the DLC. I'm hoping that the rumoured 'Point Look' DLC turns out to be true, because I'd rate Fallout 3 as one of my favourite games of all time!

S1500 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 I played through all the way last Friday. Not a bad game. I however missed a LOT of goodies, and I won't get another chance again. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I started playing again since I downloaded Steel. Haven't really gotten to the new content yet. Still finding locations from the old stuff and trying to build more experience. My cap has been raised to 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Played through the new Steel content. I must say it was worth the $10 this time. That is something I didn't feel Anchorage was, worth the $$ that is. I ran into a problem though. Since I already played through everything in the whole game, and did two of the 3 available DLCs, I dont have anything left that gives significant EX and I'm only at level 27. I should have started at an earlier save I guess when I still had quests. My only option would be to do that, or to grind the levels (something I'd guess would take hours since even on VERY HARD the most EX a creature will seem to give is 98 points or so) or to buy The Pitt DLC. Thing is, with all this talk of a GotY edition coming in Oct, and given the fact I've already spent about $100 on this game (I have the Collectors edition and a couple DLCs). With 3 more DLCs coming (+$30) I might be better off just waiting for the GotY to get down to $30 used and just get it all on a disk. Man I wish I could snag those level 30 achievements though.

IronMongeR Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I had the same problem... I'd completed everything prior to Broken Steel, so by the end of it I was only something like level 25/26. Had to jump from place to place killing spawned enemies to work up to level 30. It was still quite entertaining though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Hey you can tell Fawkes to activate the purifier now. And I don't remember being able to talk the Enclave out of the purifier before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
