Advice on which mods to get

[The Mighty Bob]

Hi,

 

I've just finished playing fallout 3 and all its extensions so I would like some advice on which mods would be good to extend my FO3 experience.

 

I heard MMM was really good as well as FOOK, but I don't really know what they stand for/ where to download them.

 

Any advice on what mods are good to download is appreciated

 

:thanks:

 

Thanks in advance

MMM stands for Mart's Mutant Mod. It heavily modifies just about every aspect of the enemies and creatures you encouter throughout the game. It touches on everything from appearances, stats, spawn rates, fighting styles, loot and everything in between. It adds fantastic and much-needed variety to the Wasteland and the DLCs. It adds a few custom-made creatures as well.

 

FOOK stands for Fallout Overhaul Kit. This is a huge mod that affects interface, weapons, actions and adds an untold amount of new stuff to the game. I personally do not care for FOOK, as it tends to be incompatible with a lot of other mods. But if you're looking for something new, this one delivers.

 

Suggestions are hard, because I have no idea what aspects of the game you like the most. I'd say donate an hour or so and just go all-out on the Nexus search and category functions. I'm sure you'll find some stuff you'll like.

I strongly recommend FOOK (Its actually FOOK2). It adds a ton of new features, including over 150 new weapons, 70 (I think) new armors, and a ton of realism and other general tweaks. It honestly completely changes the game. Its comes with its own installer so its very easy to use. It may make the game harder because it improves how effective guns are (remember, a pistol, no matter how small, still shoots bullets). But since you've played through the whole game, it shouldnt be a problem for you. It also fixes repair by making similar items repair. You can find this mod at www.fookunity.com .

 

If you're interested in a completely different style of play, I recommend Zombie Apocalypse. It adds 26 000 zombies to the game world. Good Luck :P. Its quite fun, and can become a real challenge. You can find that here: http://fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10346 .

 

Enjoy :D
