Well at first I thought it was stretched too, but then I realized if that it'd be a nice addition at least to explain the UFO crash, if it has gone as far as ghouls, supermutants and energy weapons then why not aliens and UFOs, not really that far fetched

aliens have been in previous fallout games aswell. And the alieins fro mmars idea was a big part of the sci fi version of the 1950ies.

I've always found it funny how some people are fine with zombies, lasers, mutants and what not..but when aliens pop up, it's all "WTF is this shit ? This doesn't make sense at all!!!"  |
Should be the other way around, aliens do exist unlike zombies which don't and never will. |

Early version of the script extender with 1.6 support, from the same thread it's also been mentioned that it fixes most problems that 1.5 introduced.
(You still can't target grenades and missiles via VATS like you could in 1.0.0.35 though.) |
Hm. I'll still hold off on installing 1.6 for now at least until people are sure it doesn't add new bullshit bugs...
And I like to target my grenades in mid air
But if 1.6 is ok than I guess I'll have no other choice than installing it because then the fake patch will probably be discontinued...
(and I wanna play Point Lookout ^^)
Super Mutants are explained almost completly iirc virus experiment gone bad yada yada (not that far fetched), ghouls are people who were exposed to high radiation over a longer time (I'm not sure but I don't think any people have been exposed to high radiation for decades right? So again, fictional but not impossible) and energy weapons. It's not like they're not trying to make something like that.
Point is that all the stuff except the Aliens is explained but then they go "hey, yep, there are aliens and they're gonna abduct you."
And the alien encouters always were just special random encounters, like the giant footprint or the phone booth from doctor who and stuff and now they trying to make it part of the canon game.
It's probably gonna be fun but I'm not all that happy to see aliens in Fallout that aren't already crash landed
But then again, why am I even discussing video game logic? That's like... I can't even think of some stupid comparison.
Let's all just deal with it. In fallout there are mutants, ghouls, aliens, energy weapons and what now.

Yeah it's the FEV (forced evolutionary virus), which is found to enhance the body at the expense of the mind. Fawkes, an ally you find along the main quest, is one of it's only successes.

Point lookout is tuff, everybody takes ALOT of shooting to kill and they are devistating when they hit you.

Everything in the main game is peice of cake to kill, come to point lookout and get a shock.
Great DLC though.

Using only 1 mode to make the flash light stronger. Other then that all is original.

If you REALLY want to make this game awesome, then use the following mods:
Fallout 3 Wanderer's Edition (FWE) (or you can use another balance mod like XFO)
Mart's Monster Mod
FallOut Overhaul Kit (FOOK)
Weapon Mod Kits (WMK)
FWE adds A TON (and I mean a TON) of realism enhancements, makes the game alot harder. Mart's mod adds monsters and also makes game harder. FOOK adds about 100+ new weapons, with new ammo types. WMK allows you to find/buy enhancements like extended mags or scopes and modify weapons.
You also need FOIP which is a set of compatibility mods that make all of the above mods work together.
It takes a while to set all the mods up, but it is worth it.
Also I play the game like an FPS, I never used VATS which also makes the game soooo much better.

I use the excat same mods (though I read that MMM causes some trouble with Point Lookout) and there is one thing I really dislike about FWE. I'm okay with higher spawn rates for animals and stuff but the amount of raiders that spawn and track you over half the wasteland is just ridiculous.
When I was going to the Super Duper Mart near Megaton there were about 8-10 Raiders in front of the Mart. No way to get in there without getting shot to hell...
I'm pretty sure you can change that but I don't understand enough about modding in F3 to do that myself.

The spawning problem was with marts mutant mod. There is an updated version that fixes this and an updated FOIP for compatability.

Also you need to really read all the nfo files and make sure you have the mod order just right. I played the game without the latests Marts mod and I never had problems with tons of enemies spawning. I didnt use any increased spawn mod from Marts Mutant mod, I just used what was added in FWE.

I used that guide
http://thenexusforums.com/index.php?showtopic=125185
which looked pretty decent so don't think there's a problem there?
Maybe it was just a one time thing, so I thought, but then I entered Springvale School through the lower door and was immediately swarmed by 5 raiders and above in the library were again like 10 or so.
I just don't like the amount of spawned raiders that's all. Maybe I can change that, don't know

I used a different FWE version, the one that basically has all the mods combined into one, not separately. But overall the website you posted has good mod order so I am not sure why you have a prob. Like I said though I never had respaws like that. I mean the respawn rate that FWE uses is every 7 days or so I think.

Well it's not as much the respawn rate as more the amount of mobs that spawn.
Like I said, I'm cool with a higher amount of critters and stuff but human enemies shouldn't be affected (as much) by the higher spawn amounts.

You don't have a flashlight. You just turn the screen of your pipboy up real high. Ever used your cell phone to light up something in the dark? Kinda like that.
