As usual I'm late to the game
Does anyone have a fix for the random freezes? I'm loving the game but when you have to re-start the game 3-4 times a night it gets very old fast

Good to see you again BJ! I countered the random freezes at first by putting the game into windowed mode (takes away some of the immersion to be playing with the windows outlines at the edge of your screen but hey...)...no crashes anymore.
The first patch fixed most of them in full-screen mode later too, for me anyway.

This is very cool: a "movie" based on the Fallout 3 engine

Yea, saw that. Not interested, since I own the game... I don't own it in a Stream version either... something tells me I'm done with FO3.

I don't think I'm done with it - I just want to buy the DLC without having to purchase the entire game all over again. Which is probably still some time away, sigh.
It's still more expensive to buy this than the 2 retail copies of the 4 DLC expansions (2 X 2), who are at 19€ each. So for anyone who already owns F3 this doesn't make any sense, which is shrewd of Bethesda but really very fucked up for us, because the DLC isn't fucking worth 40€.
You know what? I'd really love to play the DLC and might do so one day, but these pricing schemes are really putting me off. And that can never be the point of marketing. A company like Valve will have me buy almost all of their products at full price on release, virtually blindly, and that is solely because I love what they do marketing-wise. Bethesda is almost the opposite of this, even though I like their games a lot.

Re: the motorcycle that can be used for fast travel...it uses fuel and needs to be kept in working order (so you'll need fuel and parts). Sound tempting?

Re: The Fallout 3 topic
Is it a coincidence that that graph looks like a twisted sort of broken boner? Good to see it piqued your interested in any case. Sounded like something for you.

Re: The Fallout 3 topic
Gave the mod a whirl and was loving it. One of the minimods which is awesome involves making combat much more deadly for all. Like 2-3 shots of crappy 5mm ammo is enough to kill someone now, so combat is now down to skill, not HP.
Unfortunately, i found that shotgun ammo does absolutely dick all damage even to the face from a range of 10cm. It's a definite game killer unless I find a fix.

Re: The Fallout 3 topic
Given the amount of room for customization in the rest of the mod that surely can't be too hard to adjust? Can't you just drop a line on a modding forum somewhere?
