I completed The Pitt last night, well mostly. I've still got the 100 steel ingots to get but I hate collection achievements so leaving that until I'm desperate

The environment for The Pitt was brilliant and it had great potential, but I did find it too short and lacking a certain 'something'. The arena part felt too much like Oblivion too which was a bit tedious.
However it's still keeping me keen for Broken Steel so that's fine

Oops double post

I spent this afternoon getting the Nuka Cola Challenge quest done

As previously started I hate collection quests/achievements but this one was quite fun as it gave me reason to explore more places.
That's all the quest achievements done

Just need to hit level 20 and get a few bits and pieces done for the 1200.

Part hoping Broken Steel comes out May when I can afford it more easily, but I'd also quite like it asap

haly - a true convert now?

Not exactly. It's still not one of the best games I've played and it does have some irritating bugs

It is good fun though and I'm glad I persevered for 15hrs until I finally started liking it

Hah, lies! Haly loves it!

Only 1 achievement left for me now, getting to level 20 with good karma, which I could knock off in an hour next time I play it if I want to. Got all The Pitt done yesterday, getting all 100 ingots was easy thanks to Lynnie reading off a guide for me, only took me 30 mins or so. Decent story and setting too, and the Ammo Press is a godsend as I have tons of 5.56mm ammo and not enough .44 Magnum rounds, so I exchanged 1000 5.56mm rounds for 200 .44 Magnum rounds. I'll definitely be heading back there in the future for more ammo when I need it. I'll be doing everything but the final mission on this playthrough then leave it till Broken Steel comes out

Haly · 11-04-2009, 18:57

I need someone to sit next to me and read out the collection guide

save me so much time!
I'll be doing the same as you and leave a save file right before the end for Broken steel. I do regret blowing up megaton though, I must be too nice

Davey_Pitch · 11-04-2009, 19:59

I didn't regret it, I enjoyed my place at Tenpenny Towers

I did save it on my 2nd playthrough though

Haly · 11-04-2009, 21:12

Actually I completely forgot about my place in Tenpenny Towers

Davey_Pitch · 11-04-2009, 21:25

I loved my place there (and at Megaton as well). Both are kitted with a workbench and I store all my misc weapon building items next to the workbench so I can occasionally put it all in my inventory and make as many of each custom weapon as possible
