You know there's a third option with Crowley. If you open all the doors with the keys but don't take the armor, go back to him and give the keys then quickly fast travel back to the fort you get both the armor and complete the quest. But be warned Mr Crowley will go to Fort Constantine figure out you tricked him and immediately hunt for your ass all over the wasteland. This can lead to some funny encounters such as attacking you in your house while you sleep to ambushing in a location while you least expecting it. He'll even follow you to dlc locations to, seriously I had this fucker follow me to the Pitt and even mothership zeta I' still don't know how he managed to get on , but it was hilarious to get into a three way fight with him and the zetans on the ship.
Yup. And then I got the Broken Steel campaign and the city and its people were magically back again despite me still having the mission marked complete.
its a quirk of the animation, he was drinking when oxhorn initiated dialogue hence why the mouth is open, its the same in oblivion but only with skooma drinkers
I like tenpenny hrs a classy and cool cat 😺, I get a penthouse suite and a stash of caps for nuking a shity little town full of druggies and drunks , the explosive was a glorious sight to behold and was worth it , and living in luxury with my own butler and a comfy bed and a balcony with a beautiful sight of the horizon , I can eat brahmin steaks, chow down fancy lad cakes, Drink nuka cola's, and some bourbon and smoke a cigar at my pleasure any time i want ahhh life is so sweet lol
@Kissalude Yeah, I've not played in a few years. So many fond memories of day long (days long, in some cases) raiding, twinking and grinding fests. Almost makes me wanna take my old account out of retirement, finally get my Engi to 220/30 or finally finish putting my endgame symbiotes onto my 220 Enforcer (coincidentally who my account is named after).
It'd be hilarious if a Fallout spinoff happened in China, and the nuke that you attempted to fire from Fort Constantine actually landed somewhere in that one.
Imagine this, you finally got your hands on Fallout: Beijing and is exited to finally play it. You are greeted by a cutscene that tells you that you were shot and left to die by a man in a checkered suit after a delivery goes wrong. As soon as you finish the character customization you head out towards the wasteland. About 5 seconds later, you die from an explosion larger than the one that wiped out megaton. And the following slideshow happens "And so, the (Chinese version of The Lone Wanderer) who cheated death outside Tiananmen square got blasted by a warhead into oblivion and was never heard from again. " The game was rigged from the start
Also, i blame overly preserved wasteland food for the preservation of tera's body. If you eat enough of that salsbury steak or snack cakes, thats bound to do something to your physiology.
There's an urban myth about the preseveratives in our food slowing decomposition, that's what it is though, a myth, the human body processes those chemicals and disposes of them in the same way it does once its used the nutrients in our food, there's no sign and no comment on the temperature down in the bunker it doesn't look like it's freezing though that's the only way a body can be preserved. It could be that Bethesda took one look at body decomposition science and wimped out on the decomposition process, much like it won't show skeletons of children and babies, gore is fine, you won't encounter gore unless your really unucky nor dismembered corpses, blow people's limbs off etc, but making the actuality of what happens to a dead body is just too close to real life, too close to emotions that can be felt by players, just as dead children is, it could be that Bethesda stepped back from it, the creators line in the sand.
I think it might be a side result of the fact that the room may very well be airtight. Considering the fact that it is locked behind special doors, it might make it airtight, thus allowing for better preservation of the body. Also, it might just be very cold inside the fort considering the location and I doubt the Pre-war army wanted to splurge on heating.
The reports of Mister Crowley going to underworld after he gets treasure is true. I've done it on all of my playthroughs I've waited for him to do all the dirty work and he shows up a few days later wearing the power armor and bragging about it. Then I Kill him and no one turns hostile
Probably Oxhorn had bad luck and Mr Crowley wind up dead before reaching Fort Constatine, causing that he won't spawn at Underworld later. It could happens with Amata too after you blow Megathon. So It's a bit coinflip that NPC can make it to other placer that aren't their original spawns.
My discovery of those nukes was a lot more unnerving for me, considering you never figure out what Mr. Tennpenny wanted from the fort. I was thinking at some point, he might have wanted to get those nukes and use them on other settlements, like he wanted to do with megaton. He does mention how megaton was only the beginning.
True, but it's a fair plan. Take his key, then help the ghouls invade the tower. That way, even more innocents get hurt. Especially if you nuked the town already
Same played it when I was 9 and it was intimidating af but even now after beating it I still feel intimidated mainly cuz I could never memorize the map like I could the other fallouts it's the smallest map but it's so damn complicated

You are ready for it. Never discount the impossible. As Reality is a better Fiction Writer than Hollywood. Because, Reality can throw some curveballs that make you go, "How the fuck did that happen!?" As I say it again. Never discount the impossible.
If you don't use the keys for yourself, or just don't feel like going through Fort Constantine, you can just give the keys to Crowley wait a few days. Then return and he will be wearing the T-51 power armor saving you the effort of going through the fort.
Actually, six zeroes was a damn strong code, and for good reason. First- a "brute force" method, as used by machines, would likely overlook the numerical value because it tends to start at "1" and count up. Machines are dumb like that. And a human wouldn't think to use it because *even if they were told the code* they wouldn't take it seriously. They'd assume it was a trap code that'd alert the government to the attempt. Don't be ashamed of the code. Be ashamed that you weren't clever enough to grasp the brilliance.
The all-zeros was real but it wasn't the launch codes, just the PAL interlock that broke the missile if you tried to fire it with the wrong code in there. It makes sense for some kinds of nukes (bombs, mostly, since you can steal them easily) but by the time of the Minuteman program they were more worried that somebody would fuck up the code and they'd end up with a dud missile during WW3. Thus, they basically negated the PAL by simply telling everybody to set it to all-zeros and forget about it. By that point it was already 100% impossible for one missile crew to launch on their own, you had to get all the other crews in your area to electronically "agree" and then all the missiles fired at once. Otherwise, none fired at all.
There is an alert about launching nukes or your place is about to nuked. Thus, people will panic and might even get all the codes wrong. If that happens, what if a nuke was being sent their way where it is also a nuke storage... (assuming the nuke storage facility was not built to withstand nukes) And yeah, the real reason is to get the codes fast to launch. Jumbled numbers can just mean the life and death scenario between launching them or die from radiation poisoning (assuming the radiation somehow got its way into the place)
For me, Carol was one of the standout characters in FO3. I really loved her speech and connection to Gob. Gob of course being the first Ghoul I ever met on the FO canon, with his heartbreaking story. Another point for FO3 being one of the best games I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
Meowstic Lord they made the code 000000 because the dept of defense said typing in the code would cost us precious seconds if a nuclear war were to break out.
Maybe it also a bit of a hide in plane sight sort of thing, since the Chinese would never aspect the password to nukes to be so simple so they would never try it.
If I recall correctly, the Russian decoding computers were programmed in such a way that 0 would always be the last number they "guess", as they counted down from 9 or up from 1, meaning this code would theoretically take the longest to decode.
I remember entering Dukov's place in my first playtrough at a low level while running from mirelurks, and them exiting because the mirelurks entered there too
When I did this quest, I had stumbled onto Dukov's little "pleasure den" beforehand. I didn't particularly like the guy, or his little setup, so I killed him & looted the key off his corpse, not knowing what it was for at the time. Later on, upon meeting Crowley, I found out that the key was important. Then, in much the same way as you, I sweet-talked the others into giving me their keys as well-all except for Dave who I deposed as President, and got the key after Rosie was elected. After doing that, I went back to Crowley, gave him the keys, and just like you did, when he took off, I followed him. When I was comfortable with the distance He & I had put between us & Underworld, I painted the Wasteland with his brains, and took the keys. That'll teach him about lying to me, and trying to get Me to do His wetwork under false pretenses.
In my playthrough of FO3 I just gave Crowley the keys. A few in game days later I was ambushed by super mutants only to be aided by a power armored Crowley out of no where. Seeing what he had found in Fort Constantine I relieved him from that heavy burden of steel and iron.
I can't explain how much I loved Fallout 3 and New Vegas. They bring me back so many good memories. Thanks for those videos Oxhorn, Fallout lore is very entertaining, not to mention, the more I know about it, the more it impresses me.
actually the 00000000 code makes sense, easy to remember, so if you got nukes flying at your country, its easy to at least launch some nukes back before getting blown to hell.
Nutshell version of what I wrote in a different comment: "easy to remember" was precisely why they chose all-zeros. And it wasn't the launch code, just the mechanical PAL interlock code. A physical failsafe, basically. Trying to launch, steal or fiddle with the missile without that code would physically break it. This is a great idea if you're worried about a platoon of Spetsnaz assaulting one of your silos by force, but by the Minuteman program they realized there was pretty much zero chance of that happening in the middle of Missouri, so the PAL locks were seen as unnecessary and a potential area of failure during a time-sensitive crisis. So they told all the Minuteman missile crews to "Set 'em all to all-zeros and ignore them." It didn't affect the regular launch codes, which changed every day, nor did it affect air-dropped bombs, which continued to use PAL codes because they were much more likely to get stolen by some rogue agent.
As i understand it, this wasn't the code the president would give to authorize nukes, this was more the saftey on the gun, the techs would have to set it to exactly this or no nukes were being sent, still a little terrifying and hopefully there were other safties, but its not THAT stupid
Just a thought on the cut ghouls They could have been explained as formerly being military and having ID, so the robots saw them as employees/personnel there
Hey Ox! My niece and I 'discovered' your channel only a few months ago when you did the scariest quest mod video. We laughed ourselves silly at you squealing when the vault doll thingy jumped on your character lol Now we watch as many of your videos as we can. We both subscribed to your channel AND show your videos off to all our gaming family members. You are our gaming god. We absolutely LOVE you and your videos. I started playing Fallout 3 again because your videos made me crave it. Keep doing what you're doing, without you we wouldn't enjoy our games so much .... TRUE STORY!!! Oh my niece said to do more Nuka Cola and Far Harbor videos because they're her favourite DLCs.
29:55 I think what he means is that "On the other hand having Mr. Crowley killed wouldn't be boring" just kinda hard to understand with how the dialogue is chopped up.
If you think about it, having all those zeros for the launch code is one of the greatest bluffs. No one in their right mind would bet the whole farm on something that simple, and here we did it with the fate of the entire world. Therefore, it is the greatest password in this scenario.
I just realized something since danse is a synth and he remembers being recruited by maxson and in result joining the brotherhood at his young age and if maxson remembers all of that too... then doesn't that mean at one point during the real paladin danse's life he was replaced by a synth now known as the paladin danse in fallout 4? If not then where would the institute get those childhood memories from? I mean maxson clearly had a strong relationship with danse because he remembers danse when he first joined. So at what point during the fallout series was danse replaced? It couldn't have been before he joined because he joined at a younger age and synths don't age. If it was before he joined he would look younger. Which means it could've been during anytime during the fallout series but only after he joined the brotherhood. Oxhorn if you decide to investigate this I would suggest using the kill command on danse when we first see him that way if we see he has a synth component we'll know that he was most likely replaced before fallout 4 or somte earlier in the game when we don't see him. But if he doesn't have a synth component then that means he was most likely replaced when he came to the commonwealth, and if that's true then that means the institute most likely found a way to infiltrate the brotherhood of steel. I think this is very interesting and would be fun to make a video about.
I noticed in Fallout 4 when I went into the Covenant cave(idk what it's name is) I'm sure you know how to get to it. Anyways, when I started descending into the cave there was a room the the right with a guard in it, when I killing him I noticed some posters that said Congrats you made the vault 101 soccer team and some G.O.A.T. Questions.
Ah a fellow GTA 4 fan. If you want there's a mod on Nexus that can replace Preston as Roman, or Replace the bobrovs as Niko and Roman. Hope you enjoy it!
The reason the BOS was so interested in the nukes in FO4 was because they were the ones that were compatible with Liberty Prime I believe. The ones that he threw like footballs.
@44:14 i think the codes were all 000000--- Because they can input it quickly then without modern-day computers, thats a hypothesis guess, interesting though nonetheless, never knew that
There's a satellite array near Raven Rock where you can access a terminal in one of the dish towers and launch nukes from space and decimate the wasteland! Not sure how much of a story is involved but I would love to see a video on it. I believe in you Ox, Keep up the awesome videos.
(53:20) It would be easy to have a reason that the robots didn't kill the feral ghouls. The ghouls were the soldiers and staff of Fort Constantine. They're changed by the radiation, but whatever the robots use to identify friend from foe still identifies the feral ghouls as friends. The ghouls would presumably not care about the robots either, because the robots are not food for feral ghouls.
I'm super amused by all the people in the comments who are more pissed by Crowley's weak insults against non-ghoul humans (who can be considered a ruling class in the Fallout universe) than the fact that he blatantly lied to the main character to trick them into killing people with keys he wants. Like...I mean...obviously he knows they don't hate ghouls (besides Tenpenny). He's a terrible person because he's shady af. Not because he calls people "smoothskin". ZOMG HE SAID I HAVE NICE SKIN HOW DARE HE Come on guys. If you insist on drawing parallels between ghouls and today's current political environment, then try to consider context in either scenario. Or not lol, suits me fine in either case. Just think it's silly is all. Thank you Oxhorn for your wonderful videos!
I recall that, back in the days of the 360 release of the game, there was a glitch that made me look up the quest where, when I offloaded some gear into the Megaton House fridge and then went to loot something again, I got a free burst of XP and the notifications that I started this quest and immediately finished it.
You stored your tea 51 be winterized armor, and and or picked it back up, which the game believes is the quest reward, and it gets the quest completed. Redo your save
@@Limbopiod As stated this was back in the days where DLC discs were still being released for the 360, so the saves are long gone. Neat to finally get an explanation though.
Wow ive always just give Mister Crowley all the keys then, i realized i could keeps the keys for myself and get the ultimate prize Keep the vids up Oxhorn🖒
And you really make the best Fallout videos out there! Loving to watch it to relax. Best backgroundinfomations, entertainment and value. Keep going Bro! Love it!
This detailed of storytelling in a side quest forces you to use a lot of the skills in f3 that you can imagine an experienced lone wanderer probably actually could be like is cool. That trophy for the power armor was great too, I appreciated that. Feels like this defines Bethesda fallout writing, it needs to be hardcore like this everywhere
I used to pickpocket the keys off of Crowley as he's traveling to the fort. Even if you don't have a high Pickpocket Skill, a simple way to cheat that system is to Save right before you attempt Item-1 and then save after you succeed at pickpocketing Item-1, and so forth. When you fail you'll get as many re-tries as you need.
You know there's a third option with Crowley. If you open all the doors with the keys but don't take the armor, go back to him and give the keys then quickly fast travel back to the fort you get both the armor and complete the quest.

Don't be ashamed of the code. Be ashamed that you weren't clever enough to grasp the brilliance.
Or be ashamed of all the other messed up shit the U.S. has done.
and only zeroes shortens the reponse time, so you can launch the nukes without having to enter a complex code, he said so I the video

Then, in much the same way as you, I sweet-talked the others into giving me their keys as well-all except for Dave who I deposed as President, and got the key after Rosie was elected. After doing that, I went back to Crowley, gave him the keys, and just like you did, when he took off, I followed him. When I was comfortable with the distance He & I had put between us & Underworld, I painted the Wasteland with his brains, and took the keys. That'll teach him about lying to me, and trying to get Me to do His wetwork under false pretenses.
I'm guessing you don't want a Gary meme, and that's why you're not doing 108.
Come on, Oxhorn
If Gary went to Safari Adventure...
Doom Box12 need medicine for ass?
G A R Y
Ha! Gary
Oh Gary
In my playthrough of FO3 I just gave Crowley the keys. A few in game days later I was ambushed by super mutants only to be aided by a power armored Crowley out of no where. Seeing what he had found in Fort Constantine I relieved him from that heavy burden of steel and iron.
16:28
Then suddenly the narrator man pulls out a electric sword and whacks the man on the head.
did you just call Ox the... narrator man?
When I talked to Ted strayer for the key, he gave me everything he had on him. It was either intimidating him or strength I think
"Id rather be a whore than dead" same motto got me through college
o
Respect
This joke depresses me far more than it should
mission succes!
*+Respect*
But in Soviet Russia, whores pay you....
Oxhorn is a meme factory. Why is nobody commenting on
"Launch ICBM. OK! :-D"
I can't explain how much I loved Fallout 3 and New Vegas. They bring me back so many good memories.
Thanks for those videos Oxhorn, Fallout lore is very entertaining, not to mention, the more I know about it, the more it impresses me.
O9
Mr. Crowley DUN DUN DUN what went on in your head?
I'm surprised no one made an Ozzy reference smh
kevin scheurer same here
*does air guitar to randy rhoades solo*
actually the 00000000 code makes sense, easy to remember, so if you got nukes flying at your country, its easy to at least launch some nukes back before getting blown to hell.
Benjamin Keslar Why the gun shots? They finna shoot the nuke?
Gunshots AFTER the nukes, most likely mutated creatures and raiders
Nutshell version of what I wrote in a different comment: "easy to remember" was precisely why they chose all-zeros. And it wasn't the launch code, just the mechanical PAL interlock code. A physical failsafe, basically. Trying to launch, steal or fiddle with the missile without that code would physically break it. This is a great idea if you're worried about a platoon of Spetsnaz assaulting one of your silos by force, but by the Minuteman program they realized there was pretty much zero chance of that happening in the middle of Missouri, so the PAL locks were seen as unnecessary and a potential area of failure during a time-sensitive crisis. So they told all the Minuteman missile crews to "Set 'em all to all-zeros and ignore them." It didn't affect the regular launch codes, which changed every day, nor did it affect air-dropped bombs, which continued to use PAL codes because they were much more likely to get stolen by some rogue agent.
so were they set to all "1"'s? for safe??? or all armed on launch?
As i understand it, this wasn't the code the president would give to authorize nukes, this was more the saftey on the gun, the techs would have to set it to exactly this or no nukes were being sent, still a little terrifying and hopefully there were other safties, but its not THAT stupid
Mister Crowley, did you talk to the dead?
This entire fucking quest is an Ozzy Osbourne reference.
Oxhorn: In this terminal we have one option. Launch ICBM
Oxhorn: Okay!
*Beeping insues*
Me: Damnit Oxhorn!
When you only have one wish, and that wish... is a nuclear winter.
28:58 "We CAN Kill him-"
"WHOA! I wasn't expecting that... that was pretty epic."
Personal highlight from the video for me.
Lol 😂
😂
I just went through this whole quest while following along with you. What an adventure. This is my first time playing FO3
33:55
Undercity... You miss WoW, Oxhorn?

We're dedicated, if nothing else!
What can I say? We adore our Oxhorn!
Gotta love stealing that T-51 from right under his nose... Or whatever's left of Crowley nose.
Adam Burnett Under his chin? That's more prominent than the rotting bits of cartilage that used to be his nose.
Lemons forever
Stealing power armor from underneath his nosebones.
Just a thought on the cut ghouls
They could have been explained as formerly being military and having ID, so the robots saw them as employees/personnel there
Hey Ox! My niece and I 'discovered' your channel only a few months ago when you did the scariest quest mod video. We laughed ourselves silly at you squealing when the vault doll thingy jumped on your character lol Now we watch as many of your videos as we can. We both subscribed to your channel AND show your videos off to all our gaming family members. You are our gaming god. We absolutely LOVE you and your videos. I started playing Fallout 3 again because your videos made me crave it. Keep doing what you're doing, without you we wouldn't enjoy our games so much .... TRUE STORY!!! Oh my niece said to do more Nuka Cola and Far Harbor videos because they're her favourite DLCs.
Thanks very much! Never fear, many more Nuka World and Far Harbor videos to come.
29:55 I think what he means is that "On the other hand having Mr. Crowley killed wouldn't be boring" just kinda hard to understand with how the dialogue is chopped up.
You gotta knife them on the instant kill
Father Walrus lol
FATHER! AGAIN!
Father Walrus or use your un packed gun if past round 20
Father Walrus some wise words
Yes my child
Allistair... Crowley. Oh Bethesda. Never change
17:18 Tommy Wiseau, is that you?
Bacxaber LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISA!
Oh hi Mark.
That is bullshit it is not true.
these are the most in-depth gaming videos on the platform, its really impressive how you tell the stories
“Clown Shoes” is such a good insult
Thanks Oxhorn. Now I have the song, "Mr Crowley," stuck in my head.
If you think about it, having all those zeros for the launch code is one of the greatest bluffs. No one in their right mind would bet the whole farm on something that simple, and here we did it with the fate of the entire world. Therefore, it is the greatest password in this scenario.
he does come back with the treasure. sometimes he just dies on the way there or back
When I did this quest Dukov n the girls were already dead... They were being attacked randomly by Mirlurk Kings
"His name, is Mister Crowley"
MIIIIISTER CROWLEY, WHAT WENT ON IN YOUR HEAD?
OH MISTER CROWLEY, DID YOU TALK TO THE DEAD?
I just realized something since danse is a synth and he remembers being recruited by maxson and in result joining the brotherhood at his young age and if maxson remembers all of that too... then doesn't that mean at one point during the real paladin danse's life he was replaced by a synth now known as the paladin danse in fallout 4? If not then where would the institute get those childhood memories from? I mean maxson clearly had a strong relationship with danse because he remembers danse when he first joined. So at what point during the fallout series was danse replaced? It couldn't have been before he joined because he joined at a younger age and synths don't age. If it was before he joined he would look younger. Which means it could've been during anytime during the fallout series but only after he joined the brotherhood. Oxhorn if you decide to investigate this I would suggest using the kill command on danse when we first see him that way if we see he has a synth component we'll know that he was most likely replaced before fallout 4 or somte earlier in the game when we don't see him. But if he doesn't have a synth component then that means he was most likely replaced when he came to the commonwealth, and if that's true then that means the institute most likely found a way to infiltrate the brotherhood of steel. I think this is very interesting and would be fun to make a video about.
When I first played fallout 3, I led a half dozen mirelurks into dukovs place, and then picked up the key afterwards when they killed each other
They all sound like Two-Face.
Heads, you die and I live. Tails, I die and you live.
Is it weird that I find Tulip strangely cute?
vampuerile I do too.
Me too she's like my favorite character...
No its not
Not really
I always wanted to fuck a ghoul girl. Wonder how It feels.
Oxhorn: Launch ICBM... Okay
And I thought I was reckless in Fallout
Recently started binge watching your videos. Gotta say you really tell the fallout stories perfectly. Always looking forward to more!
Well, im going on a six hour drive and i got my free trial of youtube red, Oxhorn you are my roadtrip
Enjoy the drive!
Oxhorn deserves more subscribers
No u
Ghouls are people too, and so are Assaultrons, Mr. Handy variants, and even Securitrons! Down with racism! Up with intelligence!
Just not synths
FREE ALL THE TOASTERS
Lol I blew up Megaton to get a penthouse suite 😎
Ox: the actual Launch code...
Me: :D
Ox: during the Cold War
Me: :(
Dukov had a Lead Pipe...
The greatest shot.
James Meville A great shot for all whores
Ever watch power rangers? The one where there in a post appocolipic wastland? A pipe is the best wepon to use as a gun
Andale, whole story about dunwich and krivbeknhe and the bos outcasts are some suggestions.
Outcasts would be a short video tough
LONG LIVE THE FUCKING U.S OF A! DEATH TO MORONS
Edor Prime and if the NCR is a morally good faction to choose
He'll probably do dunwich when he does point lookout
I did actually found crowley sitting at his table in the 9th circle wearing the t-51b power armour
"Oh mister crowley what went wrong in your head" -Ozzy Osborne
Dukov became my favourite video game character within 2 seconds of opening his mouth, what a guy!
Tipsy River Assuming his mouth was even closed to begin with.

albie dam are you okay
I noticed in Fallout 4 when I went into the Covenant cave(idk what it's name is) I'm sure you know how to get to it. Anyways, when I started descending into the cave there was a room the the right with a guard in it, when I killing him I noticed some posters that said Congrats you made the vault 101 soccer team and some G.O.A.T. Questions.
Yeah It's a refrence from F3's G.O.A.T test called the saftey test in F4 given by Swanson so you can enter Covenatnt
lol its called the compound
Bethesda names the npc after a song of Ozzy Osbourne
It's quests like these that make fallout 3 so much better then fallout 4... ( ^.^)
Quests don't make up for bad gameplay
i disagree... if the quests and lore are bad, there is no incentive to do the missions anyway.. ;)
Yuri van den akker *cough* *cough* fallout nv *cough* *cough*
Yeah and I prefer how fallout 4 ghouls look like tho
much batter...
Dukov is the Roman Belic of fallout I feel like at any minute he’ll just yell out NIKO DO YOU WANT TO GO BOWlING!!
Ah a fellow GTA 4 fan. If you want there's a mod on Nexus that can replace Preston as Roman, or Replace the bobrovs as Niko and Roman. Hope you enjoy it!
The reason the BOS was so interested in the nukes in FO4 was because they were the ones that were compatible with Liberty Prime I believe. The ones that he threw like footballs.
39:49 Pickpocking
I killed everyone in the quest, next run I will kill people less
29:52 "Im Sorry Dave, Im afraid i cant do that"
@44:14 i think the codes were all 000000--- Because they can input it quickly then without modern-day computers, thats a hypothesis guess, interesting though nonetheless, never knew that
"You gotta shoot them in the head" 28:58 DOESN'T SHOOT HEAD
There's a satellite array near Raven Rock where you can access a terminal in one of the dish towers and launch nukes from space and decimate the wasteland! Not sure how much of a story is involved but I would love to see a video on it. I believe in you Ox, Keep up the awesome videos.
(53:20) It would be easy to have a reason that the robots didn't kill the feral ghouls. The ghouls were the soldiers and staff of Fort Constantine. They're changed by the radiation, but whatever the robots use to identify friend from foe still identifies the feral ghouls as friends. The ghouls would presumably not care about the robots either, because the robots are not food for feral ghouls.
"Go mate with a Super Mutant!" now put that on a shirt!
Oxhorn: "we have one option launch icbm... OK"
*sirens sound*
"Uh...uh"
"WAIT WAIT UNDO UNDO"
51:46 What happens if you use the Laser detonator device on these bombs?
Like A Goodniehbor, HANCOCK US THERE!!!
Words to live by
gechoman44 & i want a hippo you deserve some chems, on the house
So close...
You misspelled neighbor
I wonder where you copied this from?
what sword is that called? and if its a modded item what mod is it from
It's from the Operation Anchorage DLC, Oxhorn did a video on it.
A bit late on the answer but it's Jingwei's Shock Sword. You can find it in the armory after completing the simulation in the Operation Anchorage DLC.
Natsume-Hime thanks
I'm super amused by all the people in the comments who are more pissed by Crowley's weak insults against non-ghoul humans (who can be considered a ruling class in the Fallout universe) than the fact that he blatantly lied to the main character to trick them into killing people with keys he wants. Like...I mean...obviously he knows they don't hate ghouls (besides Tenpenny). He's a terrible person because he's shady af. Not because he calls people "smoothskin". ZOMG HE SAID I HAVE NICE SKIN HOW DARE HE
Come on guys. If you insist on drawing parallels between ghouls and today's current political environment, then try to consider context in either scenario. Or not lol, suits me fine in either case. Just think it's silly is all.
Thank you Oxhorn for your wonderful videos!
But... but... he said I was stealing water...
Yes fuck him not killing tenpenny he gave me a beautiful penthouse suite with a robot Butler to serve me that's paradise compared to everywhere else
Oxhorn: "Launch ICBM eh why not?"
Me: Dude what the heck!
I recall that, back in the days of the 360 release of the game, there was a glitch that made me look up the quest where, when I offloaded some gear into the Megaton House fridge and then went to loot something again, I got a free burst of XP and the notifications that I started this quest and immediately finished it.
You stored your tea 51 be winterized armor, and and or picked it back up, which the game believes is the quest reward, and it gets the quest completed. Redo your save
@@Limbopiod As stated this was back in the days where DLC discs were still being released for the 360, so the saves are long gone. Neat to finally get an explanation though.
Wow ive always just give Mister Crowley all the keys then, i realized i could keeps the keys for myself and get the ultimate prize
Keep the vids up Oxhorn🖒
"Go mate with a super mutant". Ox buddy, he toasted and roasted you I'm sorry to say.
And you really make the best Fallout videos out there! Loving to watch it to relax. Best backgroundinfomations, entertainment and value. Keep going Bro! Love it!
This detailed of storytelling in a side quest forces you to use a lot of the skills in f3 that you can imagine an experienced lone wanderer probably actually could be like is cool. That trophy for the power armor was great too, I appreciated that. Feels like this defines Bethesda fallout writing, it needs to be hardcore like this everywhere
Me: (makes a bloodthirsty beeline for the targets after getting this quest)
Ox: let’s talk to all the other ghouls first.
Two types of fallout players
This story telling is tragically beautiful.
he spends so much time on these videos their so good and we all love the effort man keep it up u work harder than most on this platform
Yay another Oxhorn video to watch
I used to pickpocket the keys off of Crowley as he's traveling to the fort. Even if you don't have a high Pickpocket Skill, a simple way to cheat that system is to Save right before you attempt Item-1 and then save after you succeed at pickpocketing Item-1, and so forth. When you fail you'll get as many re-tries as you need.
Ohhh Mr Crowley
What went wrong in your head
Oh Mr Crowley
Did you talk to the dead
