The most stupid thing related to Fallout that happened to me, was the fact that I registered at NMA.

In Fallout 2, when I went to the ghost farm outside modoc I had 1hp left from a random encounter with some radscorpions. When it came time to fall through the floor into the slag's hideaway, I fell to my death.

One of the protectors appropriately said "Ooh! that's gotta hurt."

It used to piss me of so much - trying to click some edge of a foot or hand to loot the body/bodies on the bottom, and never getting it. Years later I realized it by accident and was so pissed off. I don't think FO1 has this feature though.
I still to this day try to kill people in different spots and angles....

Doh! :?

Hopes. Dreams. You have to live these things. If not, they will remain prisoner within the confines of your mind for the rest of your life.

Wow.. You can do that? Well that's my dumbest moment. Actually, no.. Here's a good one. I got the game in '98 and played through to the Hub in Fallout 1 without going into any tunnels because I was in sixth grade and I never read any part of game manuals. Therefore I had no idea you could right click on a hole to climb down it.

I must have stood at the Vault 15 entrance for twenty minutes trying to use a rope on it. And at that point I didn't even know what rope was for in the game. I had just run out of ideas. I think I might have even used dynamite on that damn thing before it occurred to me to open up the manual.
Now that's dumb

Here are mines:


Fallout Demo:
Stealing from the first guard near me was the first thing I did. Kicked his ass and then it became a full war against the citizens of the city. Got out of ammunition after trying to kill baldies. Joined the fools and tackled the other gang. NEVER bring your bare hands to a MINIgun fight!!


Fallout: Rats KICKED MY ASS!!! LOL!!
Tried to steal stuff from Set, ended with a Hunting Rifle shot as gift. FOUGHT the entire Shandy Sands... and wow.

Tried to Fight The Hub with a Combat Shotgun.

"Radiation? Wonder what that does. Oh well, have to get out of this hole". 3 squares later...
Bring your daughter... to the Slaughter of Manslaught.

Today I was playing and I was killing that shi guy with dynamite but He caught me Putting it in his inventory. So I Shot him with my gaus rifle. Sulik ran over and started to beat the shit out of A guard and knocked him out of the screen into the blackness behind the wall. I shot another guard and he fell to the floor
Got up and ran into a bullet that another guard fired in front of him.

When I Got outside with less than 10 HP I Exploded into many tiny pieces because i forgot to remove the dynamite from my inventory. Plus that bastard sulik survived because he was wearing power armour :anger:
