Broken Hills footlockers

Post by The Great Hairy »

Gidday all,

I'm playing through for the nth time, but there is one thing I've never been able to do. In the first map of Broken Hills (the one where Marcus is standing up the back of the map), there are four footlockers along the very top of the map. I've never been able to get to these footlockers - is there a way there? If so, what is it?

Cheers,
TGHO

Ooo, this is pretty hard to explain without screenshots but yes it's possible to get to those lockers and if you do it early it's a massive jump in equipment and random loot.

If you walk up to the exit grid on the left side of the town near the fence there should be an area just above the exit grid where you can place your hex movement cursor so that half of it is actually off screen and half of it on screen, if you click your character will run over to it without initiating world travel.

Now if you did it right then your character should run up and stand on the edge if not off the map. Scroll up and there should be an area next to the power station building with nothing there, click on the ground and wait for a second while your character dissappears completely off screen for about 5-10 seconds and then appears running from off screen. Now from here you should be able to simply search the lockers for nice loot.

As a side note the lockers have had random items and guns every time I've checked.

Thanx for your quick response.


So there will be no Fallout3 from Interplay? I heard a rumor that somebody else will is going to pick up the Fallout story, is that true? I that case I hope they manage maintain the spirit of Fallout.

@Deadalready
Cheers, it worked! Thanks mate. I got a bunch of stuff from there, although since I've already cleared the Serria location, most of it was under-powered. However, I'll know for next time! :)

@Maxmed
Go to the Fallout 3 forum for your question mate. It's not applicable here. :)

Cheers,
