Naw, cliff notes rule.

I was looking forward to downloading The Pitt today. Oh well. I'd rather have a "glitch-free" version that works in a little while. Wow, I love this game! One of my all-time favorite games on Xbox 360! I just bought the Collector's Edition too. Comes with some great extras, plus the nifty Vault-Tec lunchbox!

Its back up for DL

 

[JediMike71]

Sweet! I'm downloading it tonight.

I just did the cyborg quest that is the introduction to this DLC. I still haven't figured out who the cyborg is yet though.

Cyborg? You mean the android that you need to find?

Pitt is still broken for me. I cant progress at all no matter what direction I try to approach the slavers from to get the disguise. This is a problem with the 2nd version of the Pitt not the first!!

What do you mean?

 

[Spartan Rex]

If you are at lvl 2o and already explored the area where the Fort is you freeze when you go get the disguise from the slavers. Again many are posting at xbox and Bethesda forums about it. Cant even leave the DC area. What a piece of buggy crap.
Thanks again Bethesda.

Ok, is this thing still buggy or did they fix it? I can't get a clear answer from the Bethesda forums, and I'm wanting to download this but I don't want a bugged version.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

I just beat it with no problems at all.

 

[darth dypshyt]

Have many of you guys played The Pitt?? What did you think of it. I am personally waiting until all the DLC is available, and once Broken Steel is out, I will get them all together.

 

[Spartan Rex]

Im trying to get a refund like many others for the Pitt as it is "broken" for me.
It freezes at the same spot continually.
Bethesda forums has plenty of threads about it.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

I think all the DLC has been amazing OA has the stealth armor, and The Pitt has the new silenced assault rifle. It's amazing. I'd say the Pitt is a million times better then OA just because you can go back to it over and over, and its not as linear then OA. I will buy anything they ever put out for this game.

Agreed. I loved Operation Anchorage and I loved the Pitt even more. Whereas OA was really just a series of combat-related quests all linked together, the Pitt is more centered on investigating, although there is a healthy bit of combat as well. There's also a morally-ambiguous decision to make and I'm still not convinced I made the right choice for my character...

Oh, and let's not forget the coolest thing about the Pitt - new power armor with a cow skull for a shoulder pad. 'Nuff said.

Which choice did you choose Ashers or Welhemirs(sp)?

 

[Spartan Rex]

Bethesda just announced theyre issuing yet another update to The Pitt that will hopefully fix the freezes. Kudos to everyone who screamed bloody murder about this.

I originally went with Wehrner, but then reloaded a previous save to side with Ashur instead. Wehrner's attitude after I brought him the package made me change my mind about helping him.

Spartan let me know when this is fixed and then I will download it.

 

[Spartan Rex]

Kain,
A new version is now up of the Pitt.
Initial feedback is positive as most arent experiencing the freezes anymore.
Ill be re downloading today.

Broken Steel, the third downloadable episode for the PC and Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3, will raise the game's level cap to 30 and remove the games ending on May 5, Bethesda announced this week.

Broken Steel will sell for 800 points and will include an entire new area outside of Fallout 3's wasteland based on Andrews Air Force Base. The new DLC will also include more weapons, enemies and perks, including one that can bring back your dog when he's killed.

Broken Steel is the third of the three downloadable episodes Bethesda has been talking about for Fallout 3. The new content kicks off at the end of the game, changing away the original title ends and extending it perpetually. Once Broken Steel is downloaded Fallout 3 has no ending, Hines said.

"Broken steel doesn't have an ending," he said. "There are no more endings, we got the message."

The game also slightly tweaks the moments leading up to the ending, adding the ability to send one of several of your companions to complete the final task of the game, instead of doing it yourself.

The new content starts about two weeks after the events of Fallout 3's main quest, opening up in the Capital Wasteland by Project Purity, which is now up and running.

"Broken Steel takes into account what you did in Fallout 3 and what the world is like now," Hines said.

In Broken Steel the battle between the Brotherhood of Steel and the Enclave still rages and you are tasked with discovering and helping to build a Tesla Canon, a new, more powerful weapon for the Brotherhood.

As with the original Fallout 3 storyline, there are also a number of side quests in Broken Steel, most of which have to do with escorting freshly processed clean water across the wasteland and protecting it from raiders.

"You can get a number of different quests from a scribe, which has nothing to do with the main story," Hines said. "It adds some free-form miscellaneous quests you can do in the game."

The main quest sends you to an old power plat to find the parts for the Tesla Canon.

The new area is packed with new enemies, including a super mutant overlord, a feral ghoul reaver and an Enclave hellfire trooper; new weapons, like the Tesla Canon and a projectile flame thrower; new achievements and even new perks. Hines only detailed one of the perks though, called Puppies! If you pick the Puppies! Perk when Dogmeat dies he gets reincarnated automatically as a puppy, which you can go to certain areas to add back to your group.

The new pack also raises the level cap from 20 to 30 and greatly increases the enemy difficulty level.

"Enemies are a lot tougher," Hines said. "You start seeing new enemies at level 18.

"Advancement from 20 to 30 takes a ton of experience points."

Completing the main quest in Broken Steel will also require a bit of puzzle solving, Hines said. After you've get all of the parts for the new weapon, you take it trough the Presidential Metro Line to pull off an attack on the Enclave base.

One you cear out the Presidential Metro Line you get to make your way to Adams Airforce Base where you will be given new orders, Hines said.

"Adams Air Force Base is a new world space," he said. "You sort of leave the Wastelands and go to Adams Air Force Base, it's a pretty big space."

Hines says that the main quest for Broken Steel is a bit longer than The Pitt downloadable content, coming in at about four to five hours of gameplay, and that it also adds a bunch of sidequests which each take 30 minutes to an hour to complete.

The side quests, he said, have you going all over the world and give you a chance to see how it's changed since the end of the original Fallout 3.

The one thing that Broken Steel won't beef up are the collectibles, Hines said.
