Next FO3 DLC Dated

[POOPERSCOOPER]

<strong>[ Game -> Update ]</strong>

<p>Broken Steel the next line in Bethesda's DLC stuff is coming out okay.</p><blockquote><p><em>At a press event yesterday in London, Bethesda gave us an extended peek
at the last of the three announced Fallout 3 DLC packs, "Broken Steel,"
now set for a <strong>May 5 release</strong>.
</em></p><p><em>In a nutshell, Broken Steel will remove the game's ending entirely,
with Bethesda's Pete Hines saying simply to fans that called for an
open-ended resolution, "We got the idea." Players will still have to
make the final choice, but following that climax the game will
continue, presenting new epilogue quests, another 10 levels to gain,
and new perks, monsters and achievements to keep the climb interesting.
</em></p><p>
</p><div class="articlewidget size2 shot leftflush"><p><em>For
instance, one new perk will be "Puppies," a passive ability that sees
Dogmeat reincarnated into a puppy after he is killed in battle. A new
weapon shown off called the "Heavy Incinerator" works like a projectile
flamethrower, firing bursts of flame from long distance.

Remove the game's ending completely? Reincarnating Dogmeat? Sounds like the next step is to introduce multiplayer and grinding, bright colors and japs.

Good find, poops!



At least they finally got the flamethrower right?

So the puppies perk is the unspoken "patch" for Dogmeat being a gigantic pile of shit in almost every fight, and the removed the ending because it *sucked*. Yes, "sucked" - a juvenile term, but appropriate for the situation.
