Talk:Point Lookout (add-on)

The DLC's

You guys need to stop Pondering on what PointLookout will be like and start enjoying the game why should you care its not like Bethsada is reading this shit. Also i understand this is a comment forum but could you guys at least talk about acual things instead of "OMG OMG i hope i have some MS points for point lookout and if they dont have mutant raccon bears in swimsuits i'm gana hate it and write it on the forum" That sort of stuff is why i hate you people for evan reading this. And another thing Mabey get a Girlfreind read a book do the dishs and get a fing job you lazy fat NERDs. CarthXx

Go take a long walk off a short pier, shithead. Fat Man Spoon

Wow i Can't belive you said that "fat man" spoon i would not evan begin on how much i love Fallout 3 but atleast i dont sit here on the discusion page and edit comment all day. CarthXx (no comment on my Grammer)

What? "Fat Man Spoon" came from my friend at school, and pre-dates Fallout 3. I was just offended at the "lazy fat NERDs" section. I do read many books, and have a part-time job. Fat Man Spoon 19:05, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Sorry i Geared that Copmment to all the 10-18 year olds who have no live's [Page] Oh yes obviously since anyone between the ages of 10-18 are obviously fat nerds with no lives because they play video games.--Owrm 21:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Really

Ok look, this is Maryland, not Louisiana. No crocs. Ok now that thats out of the way, I would like to talk about what you all thing may be it the DLC. I know there are Hillfolk and Tribals, buy what about animals. Heres what I think:

• A new type of giant ant that is more deadly and can hide in the swamp
• RadCoons: A giant raccoon that jump you like Trogs
• RadSkeeters: Like a bloatfly, but they attack with their huge proboscis.

There should also be a trippy place with flashbacks.

Maybe we could have some Hillfolk that have lichen and stuff growing on their backs as a special encounter. They just kind of pop up off a sitting/crouching/prone position on the ground with their backs towards you so all you see is lichen, then they stand up and try to take a chunk out of you with some sort of massive weapon, like an Axe. //--Radiation King 12:04, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Don't rule out crocs just because it's Maryland. They could have easily escaped from a local aquarium or zoo. After all, Radscorpions are the descendants of insects found in petshops. I really like the RadSkeeter idea though... ~ The Unsigned One, 14 June 2009

two new DLC packs announced!

where has it been called point lookoutDragonJTS 12:06, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

E.g. here: http://bountii.com/deal-2607198-fallout-3-expansion-pack-broken.html Ausir 12:11, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

I just hope the new perks are auto done one's like the pitt or operation. If it's level up one's and do they really expect me to just toss out my broken steel level 30 one, just cause there is new DLC

Oh yes and we could have RadDeer and RadBeavers and RadAnts could be your new type of ant. Oh, but why stop their when we could have even new radlocations. Perhaps the RadSwamp. Brilliant. Wow your a fucking idiot.

Oh woops sorry this is meant for the section above for that dumbfuck who mentioned RadSkeeters and RadCoons.

Lmao, I think that makes you the dumb fuck, buddy. 173.33.19.170 19:26, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Pre-order

Anyone planning to preorder it earlier DragonJTS 12:32, 30 April 2009 (UTC) it would be pointless to develop such a thing and not release it for the $10 per gamer it costs to download it off Xbox live makes no sense, I don't beleive it.--75.33.76.230 01:11, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Mutant Crocodiles

Who else is hoping the Mutant crocodiles from the unreleased Fallout Tactics:2 gets included? --IrishCape 16:41, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

At first, I was hoping for a special camouflaged swamp Mirelurk, which jumps up out of the waist-deep murk to cut you to ribbons. Now that i've seen that "croczilla" artwork, I'm sharing your hopes about a second start for this thing. --Echo11 15:06, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

It Seems likely seeing as its susposedly going to have a swamp/horror theme to it. Mutated crocodiles/alligators would be a really cool addition to the dlc.

AlexTheTitan 21:49, 22 May 2009 (UTC)AlexTheTitanAlexTheTitan 21:49, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes, and especially if they could ambush the player, as that doesn't happen in Fallout 3 very often. It would really be a great move on Bethesda's part to let it use the environment around you to kill you. --Echo11 16:14, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

How is anybody gonna get ambushed when we have red compass markings? V.A.T.S. addict 17:54, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

You know what would be sick? Evil giant radioactive raccoons! They could be called Radcoons! TheLastNinJew

Nevermind that could be racist sorry... TheLastNinJew

Humanoid intelligent Racoons were created in The Glow from Fallout 1, but they were cut from the game. 90.187.15.27 23:53, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

That's right, and the main reason was that the developers found it to be not "Fallout-like" enough. As Bethesda has access to all the original Fallout files, I'm not counting on their comeback. --Echo11 09:33, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

It would make sense that they would put a mutated crodilian in this DLC. Since crocs can take immense amounts of pain and can go without food or sunlight for a year, Bethesda would probably put them in. Plus, it's a giant croc, what could be more awesome than that?

Something in Maryland, maybe? Crocodiles are not in Maryland, period. That image was from Fallout Tactics 2, not this DLC. I will disown Fallout 3 if there are any Mutant Crocodiles in this DLC, because it will make no sense whatsoever. --Twentyfists 01:25, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

True enough, but then again there aren't any black bears near Washington DC, or alligator snapping turtles, definately not any Naked mole rats, horse shoe crabs, or Brahman. Putting a crocodilian wouldn't be the first inaccuracy Bethesda made in zoological placement.

there also only one huge demonic reptilian armor piercing monster in DC, but with the bush presidency over long before the bombs would have fallen i beleve that cheney wouldn't have been anywhere near DC to be come the first deathclaw. Gwyllgi 23:36, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Companions

Any ideas on whether we will be able to bring companions to Point Lookout? I would imagine you can't for Mothership Zeta for plot reasons, but since we could bring companions to Adams AFB I hope you can bring them to this swamp.

Interesting

Now why would it be available for preorder before it's even announced? Wonder if that was a mistake on Bethdesa's marketing part. Any ideas? —Preceding comment was unsigned. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

Probably a slip-up. Either way, it says the release date is June 9. That would mean that Point Look would have to come out in late May. Could we be seeing two expansions this month? MaulYoda

Not likely because of the new DLC/achievements rules that were leaked by Xbox360achievements.com. It said that you could only have 250 points and 8 achievements per sales quarter. I don't think there would be another DLC pack with only 2 achievements. I may have even said only 1 DLC pack per sales quarter anyway. I don't know the sales quarter monthes, but it is possible that the first week in June might be Point Look's release date if it exists. But let us not worry about such things right now, as Broken Steele is only a few days away. Trooper117 18:25, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

If it does come out in June, I wonder why Bethesda has kept it so close to the vest. You'd think they would have said something or left a few hints. Maybe Broken Steel might have a few clues (NPCs making offhand remarks about something at Point Look). The lack of anything substantial about this makes me think this may not be a DLC pack, per se. It could be the addition of a new weapons vendor from Point Look with unique item-collection quests and superweapons, for instance. It's also entirely possible that Point Look is just the codename for something completely unexpected. I don't know, it's just suspicious that we figure this out before Bethesda officially announces it. -- Commdor /{Talk} 18:53, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Seeing as it comes with broken steel, point look could be about the making of the broken steel, just a thought.--92.234.175.62 02:37, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

I seriously doubt it's just a making of, why would it cost the same as two expansions if it's just BS and the making of BS? That'd be as queer as a 3 dollar bill. Also it has been called Point Lookout, and that's a state park/area very close to DC, hardly a coincidence.67.211.81.140 06:14, 4 May 2009 (UTC)Cavesloth

It isnt such a coincidence, well I better get my pack mule Charon to get his Winterized Tb-51 power armor on, WE ARE GOING FOR A ROAD TRIP. (Faster Charon, FASTERRRRR!) 74.170.163.209 18:18, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

For what it's worth, the sites that leaked it have leaked unannounced EA products in the past, so it's probably legit.

Location

I've been camping a few times at the real-world Point Lookout and there isn't a lot there. Great place to do some kayaking and fishing, though. Only things of interest that I can think of is an Air Force/Navy base that's nearby (I've seen planes regularly running training exercises overhead) and an abundance of wildlife. Maybe lots of Mirelurks or new insectoids? Mr. Sully 03:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Is that Andrews Air Force base your talking about? Or is it nowhere close to Lookout?

Nowhere close. Andrews is in Virginia. Point Lookout is on the Chesapeake Bay in eastern Maryland.

No, Andrews is definitely in Maryland. It abuts the Beltway to the southeast of DC. Went there often when I was in the USAF. But Mr. Sully is referring to Patuxent NAS, as he says below.

The place I was talking about is the Patuxent Naval Air Station. There's so little around the real world Point Lookout that I'm more inclined to believe that the (possible) DLC name has nothing to do with the state park. Mr. Sully 19:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

You have a point. "Point Look" could simply be a name designed to throw off curious gamers such as we.

Maybe we'll run into some soft shelled mirelurks. -DragonJTS^{Leave me a message} 21:13, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Maybe it will be something like "Call of Chtulhu: DCOH" without the supernatural/Mythos stuff. Since the guys at Bethsoft have already proven to be Lovecraft's fans, i bet my ass it will be something like that. Plus, on an interview devs said that the place wasn't directly nuked in 2077, so we can suppose that there will be 0-rad places to swim in?

From the description, this sounds like a cross between Ocean City and the real world Point Lookout, and I imagine there will be some underwater areas. I hope like hell they make it so you can hold your breath a bit longer. Mr. Sully 21:21, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, you can receive a couple of mutations in the game(Rad Regeneration and Barkskin), so why not one that lets you breath underwater? Fat Man Spoon 21:26, 19 May 2009 (UTC) Or they should make a power armor that you can breath under water with.

Even if it wasn't directly hit, it could still be irradiated, since it's near the mouth of an irradiated river.67.211.81.140 19:04, 25 May 2009 (UTC)Cavesloth

Take a look at it on Google Earth. There is a place there called "Treasure island". Oh, and a tiny hut named "Fort Lincoln". Fat Man Spoon 21:22, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Commonwealth?

Its not in the commonwealth so quit asking.

Rumors

"It's been rumored that the this DLC will have to do with the Commonwealth. " by who? I can see no possible basis for this rumor. not only has it been stated that there it's unliekly and DLC will visit the commonwealth, but the name implies it's to be in Maryland. Sounds like a rumor created on the spot based on personal assumption. -DragonJTS^{Leave me a message} 16:04, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

I'd agree with that, unless there is a website stating this, it's not a rumor, it's personal speculation.Cavesloth 16:40, 9 May 2009 (UTC)Cavesloth

Hell, even if it is a rumor, considering that's no proof that the rumor is true in the slighest, then I'd say it's not not notewrothy.-DragonJTS^{Leave me a message}

Where did you find that quote? It's not on this page. Who cares if it's a rumor anyways? Rumors are personal speculations. There is nothing that gives a rumor any more credence or discredit. SovietRobot 07:19, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

It's not there because i removed it. And rumors can have some credence, such as the rumor it will take palce in point lookout, maryland. -DragonJTS^{Leave me a message} 03:39, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

PS3

—Preceding comment was unsigned. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

I am literally LMAO right now. I figured that the announcement that it was coming to PS3 would put an end to all the "ARRG I HAVE A PS3 I WANT DLC DAMN YOU BETHESDA" whiners. little did expect this kind of reaction. too funny. 192.139.153.30 15:03, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I'd have to agree. Guess there's no pleasing everyone, no matter what you do, eh? 72.235.91.236 03:42, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Somebody actually bought a $350 gaming console to play $30 worth of expansion packs? Why not just buy the PC version and install it on a computer? --162.119.240.100 16:50, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Because a $350 game console is cheaper than a $1200 gaming PC? Just a guess! 12.204.48.130 11:40, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Dood, the rig I'm using right now plays at a higher quality than the PS3 can ever hope to churn out- it was 50 bucks cheaper, and I can use mods to infinitely enhance my Fallout 3 experience. Where the hell were YOU shopping for PCs?--Kajex Firedrake 12:31, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

You really wanna know? I recently priced a new hand-built system via Newegg, and it came to about $1,100 total without a monitor. I didn't end up buying it, but I had the help of an IT professional and I know the prices were good, so I doubt you could assemble a high-end system for much less. Still, if your PC does what you want it to, that's all that matters. Right now, I'm using a Dell. Bought an XPS rig and slapped a $300 video card in it (because the one it shipped with was crap). That was a couple years back, and it still runs any game I throw at it, so I'm happy with the system. Fallout 3 runs in 1680x1050 with everything cranked up to maximum and no slowdown (except for one or two locations in Rivet City, but that's only because I installed a high-res texture mod.) I probably paid about $1,700. (That includes a 22" widescreen LCD, mind you.) I'd be surprised if a $300 PC could do the same, when a decent video card alone costs about that much. Then again, prices have fallen sharply since I bought my system, and of course technology has improved. Still, I've had tons of good times with this rig, far more than my money's worth, so no regrets! 12.204.48.130 10:10, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

See, that's another thing- even if my current rig had cost 3 times as much as a PS3, I STILL get more enjoyment out of it than any other console. No outstanding worries about backwards compatibility, the ability to mod, surf the internet, listen to music and watch a variety of things (from DVD's, to youtube clips, cartoons and adult entertainment), fit the entire system to suit my needs and likes, and not have to worry all that much about playing tomorrow's generation of games since most can scale BACK to my rig's specifications, OR I could just put in a bit extra money for upgrades. For the record, I purchased all the parts separately- no prefabs, just had to shoot for the best deals as fast as could be done. And as a final note, I was able to score an nVidia 9800 GTX for about $150 during a sale. Didn't even need to upgrade the monitor from my LAST computer--Kajex Firedrake 16:18, 29 May 2009 (UTC).

Because then, his point is invalid. Fat Man Spoon 16:55, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

OP made me wake up my dog laughing. Thanks a lot. --96.243.180.70 04:09, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, much ROFLing here. Thank you, OP. I needed that! :D 12.204.48.130 11:40, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Didn't basically the same thing happen with Oblivion? Don't feel bad though. I waited for GTAIV to come out on PC and it runs like crap.

Dont overeact, it said that the addons are coming out for the 360 too, can you read?

You idiot i think he realsises its coming to 360 but he spent 300 hours and 350 bux on a 360 when he could have waited for it to be released on PS3

LOL! SandaeMax 02:24, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Lookout Point History

Lookout Point was used as a prisoner of war camp during the Civil War. Not only that, but at times freed slaves were used to guard confederate prisoners. Now THAT would be an interesting story element, given slavery in the F3 world.--DreadPirateMurphy 18:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

I agree but I would find it even more likely/original if it was a camp of freed slaves with slaver prisonsers and thus the goal of the main story would be to protect them from the slavers. --160.227.21.1 17:45, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Travel

What I want to know is how in the world would you get to point lookout?

Does a guy want you to free his people?

Do the Outcast need more tech.?

I think you go there because docter li ran in to trouble and has gone missing and was last seen at point lookout

isnt commonwealth there?

SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA FOR THE STORY

Kimbles108

If dr. li is there i would go just for see how she gets eaten alive by something...DrMGinius 02:56, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

What's the story?

I have reason to believe that the Commonwealth is located in Point Lookout (real world). Some people say that it has something to do with Doctor Li, but that's impossible seeing as how you can play this DLC right after you leave the Vault. In order for Doctor Li to leave to the Commonwealth, you must finish Broken Steel. Although, Doctor Li's appearance may be seen through a side quest. The story is most likely about eradicating a mutated species like that Crocodile you may see a few comments above me. Mirelurks are likely to appear seeing as how it is a swamp, but I don't know what Point Lookout features in real life so I am unaware of crab life. I just hope that followers can come with you. I spent an hour or so trying to obtain all the followers using the Dogmeat's puppy glitch. I could always do it again, but I must say I don't want to do it again. As you read this, you may be wondering when I am going to shut up (it seems like I've been writing this forever) but I'm just sharing my opinions. If anyone has confirmation of this DLC's features, please inform me. --FawkesGamer360 01:26, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I just hope it is not some kind of radioactive Deliverance... Big McLargeHuge 01:45, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I'll try to make this as clear as possible. The Commonwealth is in Massachusetts. Why? Because Bethesda said so. Point Lookout State Park is in Maryland. Massachusetts and Maryland are nowhere near each other. If you don't believe me go buy a map. It's a really simple concept.

Also, why would an institute of ultra-high-tech research be located in a country bumpkin setting? Furthermore... the place that the Androids came from was known as "The Institute"... Institute hinting at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. --MadCat221 19:46, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, about the story... I have no idea what kind of main quest could be there, but the overall style of the location makes great to use such sidequests as searching for a group of people all over the map, with everyone having their own doom of place. Maybe will see some sort of "Searching for Swamp-Thing" quest, with an unique monster stalking the place... would be great to have a misterious adversary SOMEWHERE...92.124.74.134 02:54, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Yes the mysterious boss character hades who is charon's older not brainwashed brother, they have a megatron starscream relationship. He created the institute before the bombs dropped in the on place no one would look a deep south redneck town. he's spent the last 100 years building a giant mutant mind controlled croc army. He has a Gauss Shotgun and a ShockSledgeHammer and alien modified T-51b armor but that all pales in comparasion to his chimera army (all of which are modfied to run off of flamer fuel which includes it's built in weapons which are mounted heavy incenerators and flamers.)that the crocs pilot and even more horrifying, his own Liberty prime but with extra power fists as hands and it's painted black and called Big O.Gwyllgi 00:01, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Billy the hilly sends out a radio signal leading to the boat leading to point lookout, there you are attacked by hillfolk who say generations of inbreeding have made them immortal, you test that theory and kill them, while doing some other nonsensical quest you are required to pose as a hillfolk and infiltrate their top secret meetings, to prevent them dropping an armed a-bomb into the core of the earth, you seek out a tracker and kill him, then cut him open with a fireaxe and get inside him (power armor training required) you then pilot the corpse to the meeting, which is held at the mansion, which also is being attacked by tribals, after falling down a few floors you land in a basement where trackers and scrappers alike are dressed in crimson hooded robes, chanting some weird language, after owning them all you are told by some random person that it was a trap and that the bomb is actually being held at Elder Scrolls 4 cove (oblivion reference) you rush to the cove encountering hill folk and a guy in a civil war hat, and the odd repeating rifle being pointed at you by mutant mirelurkz, you gain entrance to the cove by bribing the guard with punga fruit (which is found on a tree a few meters away from him) he lets you in and you make your way to the bottom chamber, own Billy the hilly and then have two choices, blow up the bomb, and destroy the earth (reward: - 1000 karma + tenpenny tower suite) or disarm the bomb (reward: + 1000 karma and a pat on the back)

...And thats what i think the story is! anybody want me to do the story for mothership Zeta?--92.234.175.62 20:44, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes. Fat Man Spoon 20:47, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Bad Vibe?

Anyone else getting a bad vibe from this one?It just sounds kinda lame to me.Though,I did like the ideas of aliens and crap,but this one just sounds stupid to me.I'm still gonna buy it (In October I'm gonna sell my current Fallout 3 version and buy the GotY Version) but it just seems a little little phony.Sorry. HuangLee 19:10, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

It depends -- the swamp horror feel could be OK, but the results so far with "horror" have been mixed. The Dunwich Building had a very creepy back story, but by the time I stumbled across it, ghouls were far from frightening. It was more like, "oh, more target practice." The mad doctor with his mind control was also creepy in atmosphere, but the threat level was just too low. --DreadPirateMurphy 19:52, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I think its going to great but i think they should of stopped at broken steel because big mutants libery prime and ending enclave thats end of lone wanderer now here comes aliens and crocs. I would think whats up here? no enclave no why would the brotherhood be here but hey, they just came up with the idea so we will see what will happen --Kirby888 01:49, 29 May 2009 (UTC)Kirby888

Meh, I don't share the OP's concerns. Bethesda has recently been very good at developing original game expansions, and a swamp-horror themed storyline is self-sufficient enough to ensure that this will be an awesome DLC. Of course, there's always a chance of failure, but my hopes are up. I've been missing a lot of classic horror scenarios from Fallout 3 and am looking forward to this one. --78.92.1.70 01:21, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Well even then swampy horror? we've encountered cannibalistic inbred freaks befor in this game but now that they look like the guy from the goonies we should be scared? not to mention ghouls, i mean the first ten seconds of the opening video reminded me of the begining of The Warriors more than creepy giants with elephantitis.Gwyllgi 23:43, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

News for Olds

In the new DLC point look they need a new creature so i was thinking of 3 toughest creatures...

Deathclaw Yau Gai Mirelurk

Nothing special bout them maybe mirelurk but lets think about it.

for Deathclaw... I was think of a deathclaw baby. theres some in other games but need one in this. Hellfire deathclaw would be sick! a deathclaw but with lot of armor and LASERS! Talking ones is little to far but could be cool talks like super mutant lil more dumb...

for Yau Gai... Enclave Yau Gai like a normal one but with those enclave brain washers and dont attck enclave. TWO HEAD YAU GAI!!!!!! BEST THING EVER IT CAN STAND UP ON ITS BACK LEGS AND BETTER DAMAGE! good stuff....

for Mirelurk... Queen Mirelurk 4 claws same water blast from king and FAST

tell me bout my ideas.

You weren't serious about the armoured-deathclaw-lasers were you? If you were, BAD gamer, BAD! Now, about the others, I would definatly like to see some new kinds of mirelurks in Maryland, maybe a whole new set of mirelurks especially for that place. And yea, Yao Guai scared the shit outta me when I first met them, but when you cap the level they are just a nuissance(?) so it would be nice with an upgrade, and I've been thinking "Deathclaw Babies!" since the announcement of the 3 DLC's. So what I'd like to see, since it's a miniwasteland, meaning respawns and random encounters, a new enemy faction, crazy hillbillies, swamp monster totally new yknow, and maybe some new form of mid-level molerat. Then I'm fine. We can't expect too much yknow, O:A gave 3 new, Spider Mines, Tank, Crimson Sniper, Pitt gave Trogs, BS gave 4 new. I don't think we'll get more than 4 new enemies. 81.234.140.17 10:25, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

no we dont need remakes although a hairy or talking death claw would be awesome ooh or maybe both? i just want the perk that allows me to get better at small guns the more beer i drink that one has to come from this dlc!

Please never make an enemy suggestion without doing a little RESEARCH first. Talking deathclaws aren't farfetched because they ALREADY EXIST(ed). Seriously if you don't believe me look up Goris or Gruthar on this wiki. Plus how are deathclaws in a swamp going to function well in metal armor?? I figure they'll rust it up and won't be able to move. Jose Payne

did you guys see that picture on the page for point lookout it looks like the king kong game

The clothes are obviously new and the weapon is a hunting rifle. --217.120.177.188 09:47, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Dude, it's not, compare the two, their model is not the same. The barrel is wider and longer than that of a hunting rifle. I'm 81.234.140.17, Adjust. 18:19, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Old-school shotgun get? Wanderer Lao 05:08, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

The enemies look scary, from what I've seen by pictures. They use axes and shovels, and look even more deformed than feral ghouls and Trogs. This can be interesting... If only there is a chainsaw! AngryNorwegianDude 20:58, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

They remind me of The Hills Have Eyes, and the buildings fit in with Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I'm surprised, the setting captures the grotesque eeriness of a deep South swamp, rather than seeming like some coastal boardwalk. I guess I shouldn't be that surprised, Maryland is right next to Virginia. Also, anyone notice the Confederate soldier hat in one of the screenshots? I wonder what other Civil War treats there will be. 74.215.114.200 21:13, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

That logo looks like a childs game. Unless it is to depict hillbillies lol. //--TehK 13:40, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

The logo looks more like something of Scooby-Doo or the Goonies--KieranBOS 18:37, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

HalfLife2

Does anyone feel a Ravenholme sort of style? It sure as hell reminds me of that level and boy does that make my skin crawl.

Yeah looks bit like Ravenholm it's possible they will add someone like Father Gregori Johnypl 03.06.2009

It would be awesome if there were headcrabs in Fallout. --TheFrogger 20:21, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

It would be fucking stupid. Fat Man Spoon 20:26, 6 June 2009 (UTC)]

You say that about everything --TheFrogger 21:04, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

It's just headcrabs are one of the two reasons why I can't be bothered to go back to Halflife 2. Fat Man Spoon 21:08, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Are you kidding me? This is nothing close to Ravenholm. Ravenholm is like a boarded up city with zombies walking around. This feels more like The Hills Have Eyes but instead it takes palce in a swamp

Boarded Up House

Zombie

Some trailer... well, messages

Just to confirm it to myself, the trailer is even more awesome than the one for the Pitt. This might be the best expansion yet. But...

I the last five second of the trailer (as the credits fade into darkness and the hillbilly music goes away), there is a voice that says something. Problem is, I can't decipher what it is!

It sounds something like: "Howdy!" or "Hey, you!" spoken in a thick hillbilly accent. Can anyone take a look at it and enlighten me? AngryNorwegianDude 12:16, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

To answer your question, I'm 95% sure he says "We'll... get...YOU!" SuSpence95 12:28, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Aha. Interesting... Hillfolk dialogue, perhaps? AngryNorwegianDude 12:29, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Nice envirnoment on the trailer, but the enemies look boring. Deformed humans... AGAIN! Come on! We've already got ghouls, super mutants, centaurs and troggs. I want mutant crocodiles!--81.151.119.67 13:51, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

If you've noticed in the trailer, the player appears to be using Lincoln's Repeater. But have you considered that if they have a Civil War Hat added, then that may not actually be Lincoln's Repeater? Also confirmed that it does say "We'll ... get ... you!"Master1337cheeZ 16:10, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

not necceseraly lincoln's repeater, if you compare it you see a difference in plating, lincoln's reapeater is gold plated 62.163.88.139 17:24, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

It's proberly just a regular repeater. Fat Man Spoon 17:27, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Trailer

Wow. I just watched the trailer, and I'll tell you it looks nothing like the real Point Lookout in Maryland. It looks like shit! And those fat zombies with giant bumps on them look a lot like the ones from Left 4 Dead. The skinny zombies look like red necks. And I'm almost positive that we'll be seeing a few trogs in it. --FawkesGamer360 19:53, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Well obviously it doesn't look like the real Point Lookout, in case you didn't know, the world is a post apocalyptic wasteland, heavily radiated, and also, there was a divergence of the timeline etc, who knows point lookout wasn't affected?--92.234.175.62 16:12, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

I doubt it,only the pit has a bad enough case of disease that trogs could be present,besides point lookout looks like a rip off of hills have eyes,i mean,look at some of them!!!!!!!! BlackEdge 20:06, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Actually, there will not be trogs in this one, just read this.--Master1337cheeZ 01:49, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Perks

Got any ideas what perks will be in this DLC?

No, but it looks to me like the Hillfolk are just Hillbillies that have been in-breeding for a couple hundred years, seasoned with a bit of radiation. It would account for the deformities at the very least.

--117649AnnihilativeRepentance 01:04, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Indeed. The only confirmed perk is Bog Walker. AngryNorwegianDude 06:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Isn't it just an achievment? I'm 81.234.140.17, Adjust. 11:26, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Damn. It is. Sorry for posting misinformation. AngryNorwegianDude 15:09, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

displeasure with new DLC's?

I've been looking around and i've read from a lot of places that point lookout and mothership zeta are being looked at with alot of disproval about their non relation to the fallout franchise which surprisingly is usually followed with "thank god we now can get the first three though". Is it really that hard to understand that although this game is like the others there are reasons for that like. just so no one could say there isn't i'll name a few.

• the game is being made by a different company now who wants to bring out the idea that a perfect america (50's style) was a blink ago.
• It takes place in washington DC which is on the mason-dixon line or very close to it giving it the both the north and south, and the fact that it's right next to the atlantic we could expect possible dlc's concerning overseas invaders (please bethsoft just one where you help the enclave repel the british!), and the case now it takes place in a metropolis where not so far away is the confederate inbred spawning pools known as west virginia.
• For once it's on a mainstream gaming platform oh and the ps3, which means it has to look new so it attracts new fans to the series, if you like the 1,2, and tactics but hate this one imagine the likeliness of a new one coming out if it only caters to a shrinking crowd of gamers with every installment like shadowrun(which was a ok game), or even more like shadowrun what if they didn't make dlc for fallout 3 just to be like the old ones? they'd be loosing money for not expanding on the game. and if you think about it if the first two had dlc eventually theyed have aliens in it hell they'd probably have a japanese warlord invade (again bethsoft im really hoping to be able to play some new different dlcs like mounts.. a suped up gitty up buttercup that breaths fire or a motor cycle or a tank!).

either way i don't think people should blast bethsoft until after they make the dlc who knows maybe alien Rock it launcher is ahead.65.78.120.236 18:18, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

"(please bethsoft just one where you help the enclave repel the british!)" Ok, really? That's the dumbest idea i have ever heard. One, the enclave would never accept help from you, they would shoot you on sight. Two, The british were blown away before we were. It was called the resource wars around 20 years BEFORE the great war, and I doubt that nuclear fallout helped with the rebuilding process over there. Sure, the idea sounds... erm... sorta mildly possible (?) in theory, but... No. Just no.

Look at allister he's a brit and despite his ancientness he's not old enough to have been born until after the bombs right? and besides considering it only took europe around a century to recover from the black plague in medeval times think of how quickly they'd recover with advanced technology afforded by the fallout universe even if they didn't have any of their own it's not like they couldn't just aquire some on the black market before the bombs dropped. not only that but they would have most likely reverted back to a monarchy meaning a greedy despot is in charge again and it's not like they couldn't scrounge up a battleship, they cant all be destroyed or moored.

Then theres the fact that the enclave would be desparate enough to ask for your help, it wouldn't be the first time. think of how many people the american gov't befriended who were enimies or became enimies in the past if only to fix a problem.

1. France against the british war of independance

2. Communist Russia in ww2 against hitler

3. Middle eastern tribal warlords (specificly Taliban) against communist russia cold war 1980's, reagan funded them Heavily hence why there was such a gap in the wealthy and poor which lead to the creation of rap

so it wouldn't be a stretch if a group of people in the enclave came to ask for your help especially if that group is lead by one with "presidential" hopes.

I wasn't denying that the british were completely wiped out, I was just saying that I doubt they would have rebuilt government, order, a standing army, and pre-war planes (getting across the irradiated sea) after the resource wars AND the great war. And as for your 3 points about the U.S. allying with others-

1. The french weren't our enemies at the time, so that doesn't work with the point you're trying to prove. Besides, they came to us because they hated England.

2. We didn't consider them enemies at the time, and we didn't only join forces with them, they were already allied with England. We came to both of them out of spite against the japs for pearl harbor.

3. Umm... That might make sense, but I'm not sure that Reagan would have funded TERRORISTS. He funded rebels with what we saw as just causes (AKA Democracy), but not the taliban, likely (I'm not good at cold-war era history so I might be wrong on this one.) But still, why bring in the fact that that created Rap? That doesn't even make SENSE!!!

And besides, England were our ALLIES. Why would they invade us now? Even if it was for resources, we HAVE NONE. Well, besides the enclave oil rig on the west coast, but The Chosen One blew that to hell at the end of Fallout 2.

umm on the rap point not that i care about it but, rap is a music genre created to voice the issues of poor black communities, in the 1970's blacks had loads of opprotunities and jobs but in the 80's regan started funding middle eastern tribal warlords (some of which would become the taliban) with govenment money. any one who knows about taxes could tell you that no matter how much you try to balance out the rich and the poor the poor allways lose more and because of racial un equality in america the minority groups allways were more vulnerable to losing money and thus returning to illegal means of making ends meet. from these illegal activity and the fact that that the whole of some cities became poor except from a chosen few which were very likely head honchos of these illegal activities the blacks began to rob each other and not take pride in their communities thus leading a few skilled intellegent people who were raised in these conditions created by reagan's taxes that he ended up giving to tribal warlords in the middle east to create a ethnic music about whats going on in their neighborhood called rap. Plus democracy isn't so great look what happend to mao, under his leadership china suffered more deaths than any single war ever without even fighting and thats communism the ultimate form of democracy.

france was on of our enimies right before the war of independance though and had it not been for their hatred of monarchy and the british they might have let us get our asses handed to us.

yes we did consider russia our one of enimies at that time in fact general douglass macarthur and other tried to get FDR to allow them to attack russia with the use of nuclear weapons because the disliked the bolsheviks so much

second europe is prone to totalitarianism england especially. you think that they would just say chin up ol chap lets rebuild parliment after some tea and crimpets! you think that there's absolutly no chance that some random guy with gang of people couldn't become a warlord and later around say 200 years later his descendant whouldn't through force become the single king of england? hell if you want something unlikely how about scotland taking over all of the united kingdom and actually making it a kingdom.

plus is it so hard to beleive that a king would lust for terrortory and hey right across this little pond is a land filled with superweapons and no real standing government or army, it couldn't be that hard to get some of their weapons and take the world over!

and what about steel? steels a important resource important enough for a whole military group to name themselves after it important enough that it could make a whole city convert from selling slaves to producing it Important enough to persay try to cross a ocean for? and besides why whould any one want to stay on a barren strip of land were it rains all day and there's nothing to do now before you answer that remember

Europe is prone to totalitarianism and very few of the rulers of the past that had absolute power weren't warmongering power hungry rapists.

tribal

I was thinking,since theirs tribals in this Dlc,will there be spears? Werewolfhell 17:07, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm thinking that the term 'Tribal' is being used in a derogatory way, like how the Outcasts refer to ordinary folk. Fat Man Spoon 17:11, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Or the way i refer to the idiotic citizens of the republic of dave Werewolfhell 17:12, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

let's try something... Who wants spears? Fat Man Spoon 17:20, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Sharpened or normal?

Hidden Treasure?

I've heard some talk about some treasure inside the Old Calvert Mansion. Does anybody think that the treasure could be obtained? Because they said tribals keep trying to get to it. So it must be important. Maybe there could be awesome weapons? Maybe a unique double barreled shotgun. Vault 77 Dweller 01:58, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

The hidden treasure is believed to be the Punga Fruit, a more potent way to dispense with rads (unknown if by rad resistance or rad purging, likely the latter). --MadCat221 02:05, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Great an organic infirmary. If I wanted to get rid of my rads id just goto home and use it. big whoop who wants a freakin fruit as treasure. maybe a mutant repellent...nah or some chemical/fruit to tame yao guai/deathclaws? 90.198.53.206 14:56, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

What if there is no treasure? It may be just a myth among the Tribals. Fat Man Spoon 14:58, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Thats what I was thinking too. Don't get your hopes up people. Vault 77 Dweller 15:21, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Or get your hopes up and use that as a reason to batter even more Tribals with a shovel. //--Run4urLife! 20:59, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Maybe the Treasure is an unique Shovel which is believed by tribals to be possessed by Spirit of Death! This time we could not only kill, but also bury enemies! 92.124.90.128 04:49, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Story

So does anyone exactly know what the story in lookout is suppose to be,I mean are we saving someone or getting the hillbillies a cure for something. Stupid idea for special double barrel it should be called "THE BOOMSTICK".LTHENSON 06:36, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

oooh

I watched the trailer, this looks awesome I cant wait for the disk for it to come out. I think I might have a bit of a frightening time playing this it looks so creepy. The theme park looks just so creepy as well. i'm startin to creep myself out by saying creepy too much... Mr snip 11:44, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

FireAxe

At 00:29 in the official trailer there is a tribal wielding a longer axe, possibly a fireaxe, it's not a sledge-hammer, and I hardly think it's the same one's that the gargantua hillfolk used. I'm 81.234.140.17, Adjust. 12:07, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Um, it's just a sledgehammer, sorry. Fat Man Spoon 12:10, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

What's a "FireAxe"? Nitpicker of the Wastes 12:13, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

It would be an axe that firefighters use, and is typically held two handed. Fat Man Spoon 12:22, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

lol i thought it would have been an axe that was on fire! 90.221.49.222 18:32, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Haunting Civil War?

In the trailer on E3 it was creepy in a awesome way what i saw is a moving boat so you prolbaly go there by boat. Swamp of course obvious. Haunted mansion. The lone Wanderer in a civil war outfit so im guess that comment up there about the civil camps is right and weird zombie people that look like civil war zombies. fat guy with axe.

shovel

i saw that early post about treasure well what about you dig up the treasure with the shovel if there is tressure and then in the treasure chest is hopefully a super good weapon and armor and some awesome items

Side-quest Ferris Wheel

In one of the interviews they said that one of the side-quests or perhaps unmarked quests was repairing machinery like the ferris wheel, what reward do guys think we'll get from it? Free rides? A weapon or clothing which was stuck at the top? Hope You've adjusted, I'm Gabriel 13:10, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

A teeny tiny ferris wheel model. Or a giant teddy bear. Or a free play. Or a duck... Fat Man Spoon 23:37, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

A ferris wheel mount, or just some xp and a "repaired" ferris wheel that doesn't do anything.--92.234.175.62 21:12, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm guessing you'll be able to see something of interest from the top. The view alone might be worth repairing it. 70.20.22.140 15:42, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

It sounds very good

--Martistan 04:08, 15 June 2009 (UTC)Point lookout is a very good dlc. I hope when it comes out it will be the best one. I quess it will be! It have the MAIN advantage of the original game: free exploration + a good story (as it seems now, at least). Maybe, if Beth decide to make more DLC after Mothership Zeta, they will stick to formula "new big explorable area" - could be great. Master Mold 15:59, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
