tothx Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 More then anything the weapons, but allso the armor is more or less all useless and not even that much fun. The two most annoying things in point lookout in my oppinion is these two though: 1. None of the weapons can be repaired with items found outside of point lookout, the Lever Action Rifle for instance is very similar to Lincoln's Repeater and uses 10mm ammo. It would have been a perfect replacement for Lincoln's but unlike Lincoln's this weapon can only be repaired with other Lever Action rifles instead of like with the Lincoln which can be repaired with the extremely common Hunting Rifle (this is the reason it became my most used weapon). 2. Where is the unique's?! You have this (argueably) beautiful zone which seems perfect for exploring up, down, upside down and downside up on top of that. But there is hardly a single hidden treasure anywhere in the zone? Yeah you get a few uniques but theyre all pretty easy to find and related to quests. I really hope someone will make some mods to better utilize this new zone. Cause right now I feel it's going to waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dree74 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I agree. Most of unique items seem to be earned by its quest. But Im sure some modders will come up with an idea. Hopefully modders bring non-overpowered items to Point Lookout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feltorn Von Dentai Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Personally, the effort put into the weapons is what dissapointed me, the double barrel is almost exactly the same as a sawnoff, possibly worse, and the lever rifle is nothing more than a reskin of the Linchon repeater made to fire 10mm rounds. So far I've only found one unique lever rifle and it took a long time to get despite not bieng very different from the standard kind. I love this DLC, but these weapons are very dissapointing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C6Aviation Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I liked the lever rifle, but the shotty was very disappointing. So much so that I took it upon myself to improve it, a simple matter in the GECK. I was also hoping for more quests. There's lots of real estate, but nothing to do with much of it.

Feltorn Von Dentai Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I'm currently making a fix for the double barrels, gonna release it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilusCrow Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 In terms of asthetics, I love the Axe, but in terms of usefulness, the Double Barrel Shotgun. That thing is seriously crazy powerful. Other than the repair issue, I don't quite get why people dislike it. The armor left much to be desired though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VerbalEarthworm Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 i don't see a repair issue, there is a very useful "personal footlocker" that travels with you, just fill it up with spares. i used it to transport all my hundreds of grenades and mines to Point Lookout (took several trips to move them from storage).

xaechireon Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Maybe its because I'm playing on Very Hard difficulty, but the weapons introduced hardly cause a scratch on the Swampfolk and tribals while a Brawler can put me down in a single punch when I still have about 200 hp. First Broken Steel, now Point Lookout. I'm beginning to see a trend in incredibly tough enemies and relatively useless weaponry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyViper Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Wasn't really disappointed, since didn't expect much. To be honest if you want weapon pack then OA is for you, all these powerful items and perk almost for nothing from lvl 1 if you decide doing it early. Besides Point Lookout is more about story and exploration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Broken Steel, now Point Lookout. I'm beginning to see a trend in incredibly tough enemies and relatively useless weaponry. Yeaaah... Uhm. =) Sorry mac, it aint that hard. You just got some annoying bug that has ruined your save files, as proof. Load an early save or start a new character, then you select the point lookout quest and use the "movetoquesttarget" command. Might have to use an player.additem f 400 for the point lookout ticket aswell. Go there on very hard with a shitty character and you'll see it isent really that hard, most likely it's some quest perk that is bugging out. Had this myself, most likely youre taking heavy damage right now even when in VATS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
