Played Fallout 2 for first time this last wkend

[imported_hopeless]

Thanks for the tips and answers from my other post. So far it's a pretty fun game.

I started out with:
S-5, P-7, E-5, C-5, I-9, A-10, L-6.
Gifted & Bloody Mess. Tagged Small guns, Energy guns and melee.

Perks so far:
Swift learner X 1, More criticals X 1, Not sure of the name but it adds +2 to P for distance shooting X 1.


After the first town I headed out and remember somebody said go S. So I headed S in the wastes and found san fran. I didn't think I was suppose to be here yet but figured while I'm here might as well look around. I ended up doing a quest that netted me a lot of XP not to mention some very nice armor and weapons. I then headed back N and am currently in the den.

I have started stashing items in a few places, please tell me that it won't just disapper.

They won't disappear.

Also, there's no order you HAVE to do anything in. Really, if you wanted to, you could go straight from your village to Navarro, then to San Fran, then beat the game if you wish. Even after the main game is finished, you can still play. Just be warned that it screws up some dialog, keeping you from getting some of the side-quests after.

Tips: There are magazines you can find. can't remember the name of it, but there are ten copies throughout the game. Give them all to the madam of a brothel in New Reno and you'll get a small boost to your energy weapon skill.

Also, a few fan-fixes you might want to apply:

http://www.nma-fallout.com/for...ction=file&file_id=707 you don't get as many special random encounters as you should, this should fix it
