You get this ending even if you did not kill them IIRC.

There is another ending for it. Uhmm actually it is more of a non-ending. You complete the mission within a certain timeframe and the deathclaws get no mention at the end.

I had to get a blood patch to enjoy the entire game.

The morons cut the kids, the most bloddy death animations and the entire military base from the game. :evil:

God I hate german versions of games.

I believe that cut also stops you from finding the kid that gets lost down the well.

I found this out:

If you have a relatively small -66 or so rating, a lot of people will refuse
to do business with you; but if you hit -700 or something, they'll happily
deal with you.

I think this is a realistic implementation of the "Bastard Son Of A Bitch"
paradigm:

If you're a small time murderer, they won't be afraid of you; but if you've
slaughtered hundreds of people, they're going to be nicee nicee to you
so they can live to the next sunrise :twisted:

I never really understood the point behind the BB guns. Statwise they seemed less powerful then the other assault weapons you have at the time when you find them.

Most are pretty bad the but the Red Ryder(limited edition) version always has a base damage 25.

So while not as good as some of the larger weapons...it doesn't require much strength, has a low AP cost and decent range.

I always thought of it as a gun you use if you're not a combat guy really.

This 1.03 patch is fucking shit. You travel anywhere with the car and it fucking disappears when you get there!

What fucking moron could miss such a big fucking bug? Seraph, you're a fucking dumbass. What a waste of fucking time playing FO2 again was. Next time I'll stick with the 1.02 patch that actually fucking works. Fucknut.

You know how long it takes to get the car in Fallout 2- you need to have basically completed it up to Vault City & Gecko (i.e. Klamath, the Den, Modoc & Ghost Farm)- with enough money to pay for the fuel cell controller and fuel cell regulator installation. That's a big time investment. Hence my voluminous swearing (seconds after quitting and uninstalling in a fit of rage).

Look, man, just trot off to Navarro right out of Arroyo and do the Vertiberd Plans quest. Steal a little from the merchants in 'Frisco, and you're golden when you get the car.

I'd like to see a patch get you through Arroyo. The game just isn't fun in Arroyo. Just get a saved-game file that has all the quests done, but let us hack it to put our own character in. Gives us a perk and a couple levels right off the bat...

What dog? I've played Arcanum and I've been banned from the first town (I forgot it's name since I haven't played it for a while) for saving and then robbing the bank. That and I've killed everyone in the town.

Ashbury the one by the sea

you bitch out a gnome for kicking a poor defenseless dog who just wanted something to eat, and you get your best pall in the whole wide world.

This dog has high enough str/con/dex that he kills monster's with one bite that would take you 3-7 shots with what ever your using to do.

Ahh.. unfortunately that dog will most likely not see the light of day since with the exception of Tarant, I will kill off everyone like I did in FO2.

You can talk to the gnome them kill him off, if you just kill him his ghost will continue to kick the damn dog to death, however you can ressurect the dog, after the gnome's ghost is done kicking him to death, and in the patch the dog will join you.

The dog is very loyal, and never becomes pissed at you regaurdless of what NPCS do, how many fights you get in, or are evil or good. best yet if you ressurect the dog his loyalty increses by 15% each time... (I kinda had to ressurect the dog three times taking down a lich, he's now got a 90% loyalty factor puppy at my side, who kills elementals, and demons quickly, and we're only 23rd level....)

That's cheating- you should have no knowledge of San Francisco until you go to Redding and ask that woman at the saloon. :)
