Fallout 3 Starter Guide

Fallout 3 is a great game, which offers a fantastic gaming experience. Give it a try!

Fallout 3 is not an easy game. Especially if you are not familiar with "open sandbox style" games or RPGs.


This guide will give you some information, which is really handy to know at the start of the game WITHOUT any spoilers. I found most guides reveal too much of the story and quests and therefore can deteriorate your gaming experience. Ok, here are some essentials, nice to knows and NO SPOILERS.


If you start out new with Fallout 3, consider buying the Broken Steel add-on. It increases the level cap from 20 to 30 and extents the main story line. You can download broken steel for 10 US$ from Windows Live or buy the add-on pack DVD with Broken Steel & Point Lookout (currently 20 US$).


You can customize your character to your liking and there are many combinations that work well. However, the Lockpick and Repair skill are important.


In the beginning focus on one combat skill. Unarmed, Small Weapons, Big Guns or Energy. Small weapons might be the easiest.


Get your own house for storage and to rest (your carrying capacity is quite limited).


Things to collect. You can’t sell “essential” quest items. However, the following items are worth keeping in storage till you need them!

• Scrap Metal
• Blood Packs
• Nuka Cola Quantum (glows bright blue in PC version on full details, easy to identify)
• Pre-War Books (in good condition, not the burned ones)
• Books with titles like "Grognak the Barbarian"
• All drugs, chems, medical items (no weight)
• Bottlecaps (Fallout 3 post-war currency)

All ammo. Ammo is limited during the early stages of the game. So keep all ammo, it has no weight, carry it with you.


Carry a variety of weapons with you. In case you run out of ammo you can swap to another weapon. Keep a few duplicates of your weapons in storage for repairs.


To make money, collect items with a low weight and a high value. With your carrying capacity limited, it is best to pick up items with no weight (ammo, pre-war money, bottle caps) or little weight. I recommend to pick up items with a “Value to Weight ratio” of larger than 7.5. At the beginning of the game, you can go with 5. Do not collect all the junk (cups, plates, etc) with a value of 1 and weight of 1.


Look out for mines and traps. You can shoot them up. Or collect them if your Explosives skill is high enough.


Look out for the "Bobbleheads". Little statues of the "Big Headed Fallout 3 Comic Man". There are 20 in the entire game, so they are hard to find ... but they are worth it.


Use the VATS targeting system for short and mid range combat. For long range combat use the mouse (right click to aim, lift click to shoot) in real-time.


Try to complete the optional quest objectives.


Save often! Save before you leave vault 101 and keep that save!


Exploring the wastelands can be fun. In the beginning of the game I would recommend to follow the quests. Otherwise you might run out of ammo fast.


Have fun!!!
