manho221 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Im sorry if this has been done 100 times. I did some quick searching and came up with no old threads to bump. Im playing New Vegas right now (lvl 12) and I played F3 and all DLC content just last year when I built my new PC. After a Windows crash I did reinstall of Win 7. After getting started on New Vegas I decided to reinstall F3 with some major mods, Wanderers Edition, Marts, Beauty project and many others for a play through just for fun in my off hours of FNV. F3 is one of my favorite games of all time and I have been gaming on PC since 1994. It got me thinking about what I loved and such about the game(s) and while several moments come to mind one in particular stands out as a big belly laugh if you will. I was about level 20 in F3 and messing about with the "Rock it Launcher" I was just hanging out and stuffing things in the "que" if you will to be shot out of the gun. I wasn't paying much attention as I was in my room half watching tv at the time. I finished messing with the weapon and started questing again not thinking that I needed to switch to my primary weapon again. About 20 min goes by and Im back in the wastes. I happen upon a super mutant and he catches me by surprise. Actually I was quite startled. Without hesitation I fire my weapon at the SM. I hear a noise kind of a soft thud. I did no damage. After quickly switching weapons and finally killing the SM I start to look around to see what that noise was from the Rock It Launcher. I hit him squarely in the chest with a catchers mitt :D This amused me for days and was a defining moment for me in F3. Do you have any such moments that define your experience in F3 or that were just a good laugh at the time ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finbar800 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 One time I was walking out of Vault 106 (I think it was 106. I might have been 96), and I took a left and suddenly I was under fire from six raiders. One with a missile launcher and the rest with assault rifles. So being as lazy as I was I went back to the auto save from exiting the vault. This time I went strait. Suddenly a Yao Guai jumps out at me and breaks my combat shotgun. Once again I go back to my auto save. This time I take a right. After walking for a bit two Radscorpians start to follow me. Usually I just keep walking, and I can out run them. Then a Yao Guai jumps out at me breaks my combat shotgun and I get all p*ssed off. Yea. It just shows you can't go anywhere without a fight.

Ranger910 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 The mysterious stranger perk..I love it when he shows up. Especially when he shows up to finish off a bloatfly for me. lolNot gonna lie though, he's saved my rear more than once and it always entertaining to see him do his thing.

ninjafish Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Well so far my favorite moment has been---------------------------------------------------------------------------- During the Power of Atom quest (I believe it's called) you have the option to blow Megaton up or disarm it.I decided to blow it up, and when I went back to Megaton, I found out Moria had been turned into a Ghoul. That ALONE made it all worthwhile for me, but it got better.One of the conversation options, or close to it was: Uh, no offense Moria, but you got real ugly, real fast Made me laugh for a good 25 minutes. Any other moments seem to pale in comparison to that. But I suppose finding Dogmeat on my first playthrough was really awesome. I never read trailers or release details for games, so I never knew about companions. But when I found him, I was so happy. I love dogs and I thought this was so neat. And I was so worried he would die, I put him in my house in Megaton and kept him there haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homme Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I don't remember the exact dialog but basically it went like this: In Moriarty's Saloon, Jericho, (usually a Richard with ears) breaks character and timidly asks Nova to give up her day job and go away with him, forever. He explains that he has plenty of caps and seems sincere in his request. Just as soon as she finished saying "no" politely, in walks mild mannered, polite, insecure and sweet Lucy West. She says "Oh! Hi, Jericho' and asks "How's it going?" He yells at her "SHUT THE F&%$@ UP!!" I almost blew the glass of milk I was drinking all over my laptop!

babyeatingdingo Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) i was walking around with Crow's caravan through the ruins of DC. he rounded a corner right in front of me, maybe 2 feet ahead, and he was instantly blown away by 3 super mutant brutes with assault rifles and 1 with a minigun (i have mods to make weapons do higher damage, and to make super mutants more numerous/tougher). the first couple shots killed him, but they kept shooting him for like 6 seconds, exploding all of his limbs and his head, spraying pieces and blood everywhere, and continued to shoot his limbless stump for a second more before stopping. i was just like "HOLY s***!" his caravan guard and brahmin both turned and ran away too also, one time the Mysterious Stranger showed up at my 10th birthday part and shot 10 year old Butch in the head.

7thsealord Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) All-time favourite moment. I had the Chinese Stealth armour, and was practicing variations of the 'Shady Sands Shuffle' with the Slavers around the Lincoln Memorial. As you do. Great stuff. My teenage daughter came in and decided to watch for a little while (slow afternoon, homework done and all her online friends were offline). I then did the standard 'SSS' on one Slaver, who promptly yells "Holy S##t" and starts comically wagging his rear at high speed before then spectacularly detonating. My daughter just laughed for nearly ten minutes. It was her first contact with FO3, and she started watching my in-game shenanigans a lot after that. She now regularly plays FO3 as well, I tender advice sometimes, and we frequently exchange stories from our respective games.

Agnot2006 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 (edited) My funniest moment was after I had installed The_Librarian_Orions_Gate mod by joey2176. I had finished the quests for the mod and was walking around the City of Angels looking at the fantastic sights when suddenly a Molerat ran past me being chased by two kids with sticks trying to hit it. It was hilarious and so unexpected. Edited January 19, 2011 by Agnot2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedomForce29 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) My favorite moment was when I got to EverGreen mills in my most recent play-through, and all I had was 30 rounds for my SAKO-TRG (Courtesy of EARACHE42) and I got, without fail, 26 consecutive headshots! All of them were insta-kill! I cleared the outside with only 26 rounds! 26! It twas epic. I should've recorded it when I had the chance..
