Thanks for your replies people, all very help ful, i downloaded fallout 2 on an impulse last night, not something i think ive ever done, i had problems getting it  to load ,but got it working today,
I am a slight bit disapointed, and there is a slight chance i will refund my money from gog where i downloaded fallout 2

I played for about 30-40 minutes
so far Ii moved 10 boxes which gave me enough money to buy a gun, but no ammo anywhere.
i tried to sign up for caravan mission but caravan leader says no work today.

Guy in bar gave me mission to take money to someone in junktown, didnt put junktown  on my map ( and i dont remember where junk town is ) so i wandered wastes looking for junktown until i got eaten up by a 4 pack of rats.

so so far not very exciting/interesting, but i will give it another chance and hope it picks up
doesnt seem very easy to get a tent once i get enough stuff to store, but i guess that just noob complaint.

This might be helpful in the beginning, also check beginners advice on wiki.

for the first time wasteland will kick your ass. Imagine that you are entering a brand new and unfriendly terrerian without any knowledge nor experience... You just should be betaten up. Dont give up.

i just played the game for about an hour and didnt do jack-sh#$@, I didnt even do brahmin-sh@$#

The guy says pick up brahmin @#$, I pick it up and go talk to him and nothing has changed, and i cant even sell it to him.
so im running around with about 16 brahmin #@$ on my inventory and cant do anything with it, seriously whats the deal with this game?

and do quests reset when you die? i finally get to junk town alive, and was supposed to talk to someone in skum pitt i thought, but with no luck, so there was  a wasted quest.

im trying to be patient here -.-

one of the reasons i liked fallout was because there was so many different things you can choose to do, but so far it seems like if i dont follow the online tutorials word for word im going to get screwed.

He doesn't say "pick up Brahmin shit" - You have to use a shovel to clean it up, not picking it up with your hands.

Getting killed does not influence quests.

haha, I remember back in time when I use to call nasty to the ones who fulfilled his bare hands with huge loads of prolly stinky shit, It was funny.

You fail in some quests if you die.

Here is an example: http://www.fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/Bring_Little_Jesus_Mordino's_briefcase_to_Metzger

Also this one (http://www.fo2238.fodev.net/wiki/Deliver_Message_for_Elmer) UNLESS you upload the info from the Holodisk to your Pip-Boy.

Just check the Wiki to see if you need to stay alive to complete a quest.

Dying doesn't make you lose the quest, loosing the briefcase is just a side-effect of dying If you stored the briefcase, then died, it's fine.

Yeah well you are right. Strange we don't have that kind of PKs: trolls who would just camp Reno in search of new players (who have a tendency to go for SG Gunsmith 3), kill them and demand money for the briefcase. Of course, I know you won't get much profit from this, but... Trolls just wanna have fun!

Inactive? No, not really... Hmm I think I got lucky with that quest

So - 25 reputation for pick pocketing 30 caps, even though I got away with it?

I understand consequences for your actions, but shouldn't that only count if you get caught?

this might be off topic to the thread, but i have a lot of questions i guess

[Eternauta]

There are currently no consequences for your actions
