    to miles j schaibley question of question: how would the expansion pack work if in the story mode you chose to go in an not sara lyons do it? do you have to start over?

    I beleive that the story change will make it so that the reactor doesnt blow meaning there will be an alternative ending and you and Sara live.

    I have gone back and ended it all 3 ways. If you let Sara go in, after she enters the code she falls to the ground and the whole screen goes white and then it starts in about "the lone wanderer from Vault 101". Then basically makes you look like a bad person for letting a "real hero go in and sacrifice herself because you were too much of a coward to do it". So either way the game ends there. I still have places to visit and quests to do so I just went back to the save point right before going into Jefferson Memorial and then left the scene and went on to do other things.

    I'm just happy about the level cap risen to 30..that and the ending were the major turnoffs to me (Though I still play it all the time). So now that you can play past the ending and keep getting xp, this will most likely be the best of the three to me.

    miles j schaibley -

    If you save the game right before that part (or any part) you have the option to A} go through the part, then re-load, then go through the part in an alternate way.

    I did this, and had sara enter. She makes some remark about how you're not a great hero or something. Then she goes in, dies, and end credtis role. Normally the end-story narrarator says how brave you were when you entered the chamber to risk your life, but instead he says something like you were didn't go and sent a brave woman to do the job for you.... something a long those lines :)

    wouldn't it be alot easier if you could just let forbes (the super-mutant you help free while obtaining the geck) could go in there and enter it, he can't die because of alittle radiation

    SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Im thinkin that the ending might be the same but maybe you wake up as a ghoul? I find it hard to believe that the character would be able to come away from the whole thing unscathed. And to get your face back, you have to search for pinkerton whos disappeared from rivet, idk it would be interesting. thoughts?

    In an artical by 1up the designers said that there is a really good plan to solve the ending and allow the game to go on so you can continue to explore.
  14. On March 29, 2009 matt said: -
    they will be chaning the ending of the game for people with the expansion sets so that u can keep playing at the end of the game
  15. On March 29, 2009 Bob said: -

    there are rumours that the game simply wont end how you will walk into the purity control room pass out and apparantly something along the lines of sarah lyons drags you out and says omg its a miricle.
  17. On March 31, 2009 Alex said: -
    You get to continue after any ending.

    What im interested in is, what would happen if you contaminated the water? would you survive and then the wastelands water would be very deadly. Because you are a bit radiated after all those quest and stuff.

    i finished the game but then i went back to the save point before i went to get the G.E.C.K and completed the other quests and DLC packs exept for the pit but im debateing on weather to get that now or wait untill broken steel comes out (if it does) and when do you get the chance to take the goat test couse i cant figure that out

  23. On April 16, 2009 Secllipse said: -
    Is that it? Thats all there adding? Those 3 DLC's? If so, thats sucks nuts! Oh and in Broken Steel are they adding and/or expanding the main quest line or adding Misc. quests? or are they just adding higher level cap and end-game play???

Come on if i said my work was ready and then 2 weeks before deadline put it back 5 months my boss would fire me!

    All the DLC is 800 Points (total 2400)

    I got all the available DLC yesterday, Have to start all over again though..
    My 360 DVD-ROM could no longer read most of my games (up to 20 Discs).
    Anyhow, got myself an Elite this time, for that DLC vs. HD capacity problem.

    I died in every possible way in the final chapter, i hated it and went back to my other charm TESIV. (never gets boring).

    I'm only Lv6 right now, but knowing i'll survive project purity matters besides the wonderfull fact that i'll be able to work up to LV30.

    ps. for Uk Devilstorm
    One Takes the G.O.A.T at age 16 in Vault 101, don't fill in the form yourself, just take the G.O.A.T. then object and fill in the form yourself.
