Fallout 3 Missions Question (spoiler free)

02/12/09 10:36 am | #1

Just a quick question. I am right before the last main story mission. But before I start I wanted to make sure I would still be able to do side missions after I complete the game. I don't want to have to start a new game just for side missions. I know I won't be able to do some of the side missions due to choices I made throughout the game. I plan on playing through the game again, but I want to get as much as I can this play through.

My character is 160 exp away from level 16, so I don't want to have to start a new game until I get to level 20 so I can get the Karma achievement. I won't be playing again until tomorrow, so any input or suggestions is appreciated.

After the last mission, the game just ends; you will have to load up a previous save before that mission in order to continue with side missions. This is going to be fixed when the content comes out in March; according to Bethesda they are going to fix it so the story will continue on, but for now there is no way to continue without a prior save...I think that makes sense...

Oh and all of the side quests (that have an achievement for it) can be done regardless of what you have done for the game unless you have failed it and it said failed. otherwise i think you are referring to megaton because you can do the wasteland survival guide in the underworld.

shoot i 4got yea the 1 at paradise falls cant be redone if you killed the guy

Thanks you guys. I saved before talking to Sarah Lyons. Will that work for a save point? Or should I go with one of my other saves that are a little further back.

Also, the mission I was talking about not being able to do was the one at paradise falls. I kinda wiped out everyone at the place.

yeah, selling my mezzer kept me from that achievement too.
i think that save will work just fine. basically, you can play and save right up until you enter the reactor room at the memorial. once you enter that room it's all over.

This issue will be fixed in March's update. The update includes the ability to actually join the Brotherhood of Steel and eliminating the Enclave for good. They will also raise the maximum level to 30 instead of 20.

One more question. I know it is possible to have multiple game saves, which I do. But is it possible to have multiple characters? Like, can I start a new game with a new character and not have it over write my current character?

I would like to start on my good character, seeing as how my current one is evil. But I don't want to attempt to create a new character just to have it over write my old saves due to this games auto save feature.

Mainly I want to collect all of the bobbleheads, but I can't due to the little...ummm..... mishap I had with Megaton when I first started playing and didn't know to grab the bobblehead before said mishap.

I got the one in Raven Rock, its the one in megaton I can't get. Thus the need for a new game.

I have the same problem, Duff. Except I didn't get the bobbleheads in Raven Rock or Vault 101. And yes you can have two characters, just start a new game, and when you save, make sure to save in a new slot and don't overwrite any of your old save files. I'm pretty sure that'll work.
