Re: It's good but not great.
[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="Lizard_King"][quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"] Furthermore, you can't call in for constant reinforcements - if you ask for a dude with a grenade launcher and he blows himself up, you don't get another one. It was a good way to add a little bit of tension to the DLC, since there are health and ammo containers every fifty feet. (Not that I was complaining.)[/quote] All I used were two snipers and one grenadier/infantryman. I was never unable to replace any of them when I remembered to call up more. The snipers were pretty dominant in the unmodded xbox version, and they were monsters in my modded pc version, where he who shoots first lives forever. Of course, it's one shot as well from the Chinese, so it's definitely a situation where you want to effectively employ your cannon fodder. I really have to get down to Point Lookout or at least the Pitt someday. I knew I wouldn't bother with the actual Broken Steel content beyond the level cap, but it's ridiculous that I've only beat Anchorage. [/quote] Yeah, just having O:A and Point Lookout, they may have expanded the level cap anyway. I think I am at level 20 going on 21, and I don't have Broken Steel. I did <i>object</i> that they gave me the unkillable NPC without telling me beforehand that he'd be along, and who was essentially an infantryman. And I objected that they took my gear. My plan was to <a href="http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/ap2/language/lexicon_B.html#be">BE</a> the sniper, but also carry the gauss rifle, and then run with a robot, an infantryman and a grenadier. None of that worked! Well, I mean, it worked, I killed like a hundred Chinese people, murdering them in cold blood (<b>HEH</b>) but it didn't work according to my idea of tactics. But then again, I'm not very good at tactics or video games, so I guess the U. S. of A. got lucky there. Anyway, I don't remember what they are charging for Point Lookout, but it's fun, it may possibly also contain the level expander, and has a tamed ghoul in it fairly early. Whoever is doing the voice acting for those is the best guy in the bunch, I can't get enough of that guy. the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey![/quote]
