[QUOTE="D.Shaffer, post: 4529941, member: 8918"] I got the game yesterday after an hour search of the local area to find one that actually still had a copy left. Actually ended up getting the display copy at the local gamestop. :D Anyways, I meant to only play for a couple hours...and ended up playing till 3 in the morning. Not a good thing when you need to be up at 5 to go to work. :D One thing I noticed, it really overestimated my computer's abilities, setting the default level at high. Which made the game hard to play on. Setting it on Low made it playable, but it's not quite as nice looking. It's still pretty good. On higher levels, it's not just slow, it crashes a lot. That might be something to try for those of you with constant crashing issues. My default Fallout character type is the sniper/genius type, high INT and AGI with tagged repair, science, and small arms. For a change of pace from my previous Fallout characters, I'm playing a female. I made the 'mistake' of exploring a bit before looking for Megaton and was rewarded with a nice hunting rifle. It's in bad condition though. Thanks to a couple raider nests I've cleared out, I've got a pretty good 10mm as well as an AWESOME set of spiked knuckles+hockey mask (+5 to unarmed!). At close ranged (Like inside the school) they're actually more effecting then my pistol is. I'm also loaded down with raider armor, which I really need to sell off. It got to the point I made some caches in the area which I need to get back to at some point. [/QUOTE]
