Fallout 3's Mothership Zeta DLC Lands August 3rd [Now With Screens]

Fallout 3's Mothership Zeta DLC Lands August 3rd [Now With Screens]
Written Tuesday, July 14, 2009 by Jason Debelyak

Bethesda has announced that the fifth and final chapter of DLC for Fallout 3, Mothership Zeta, will be available to download on August 3rd.  In this brand new content, players will leave the Capital Wasteland to battle somewhere extremely new to the Fallout 3 universe -- outer space!  Defying hostile alien abductors, players will have to fight their way off of the massive spaceship.  The new content will also feature brand new weapons, including the Alien Atomizer, Alien Disintegrator, and Drone Cannon, as well as new outfits and characters.
 
The new content will be available for 800 MSP ($10) when it launches on August 3rd for Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live.  Playstation 3 owners will see the DLC at a later date.

Now one question remains: are they going to add enough achievements to hit the 1750 gamerscore cap?

Hats off to Bethesda for actually making some fairly decent DLC on a regular basis (apart from Operation Anchorage which I thought sucked).

Comment #44 by PimpinIsntEasy
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:08:01 PM

awesome just read there is new guns hope they are good n not shite

Comment #45 by reaperkiller117
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:11:26 PM

I really hope they also raise the level cap more since this will be the last DLC. If not they should do an update for ALOT more levels.

Comment #46 by oldaddyjoker
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:13:51 PM

a couple things....

1) I gotta agree w/ #24 on the wish for a glitch-free launch. I don't know if I can stand another Pitt-like day one.

2) Thanks Bethseda for supporting your games with not only DLC, but patches as well. RPG's and their devs could learn a thing or two from you folks, *cough*Fable*cough.

3) To everyone wanting them to raise the level cap, why?? A Lvl.30 properly planned out maxes all stats and gives you nines across the board on core values. So what's the gain?

4)Lastly I want to say isn't it nice for a company to come out and give everyone not only a heads up that there will be no more DLC for their title, but if you have a virtue known as patience how you can score it for cheaper?

HAVE A NICE DAY!

Comment #47 by lordskorrkeeper
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:22:52 PM

I heard there was 2 more DLC after this one, not sure where or how reliable that is but here is to hope

Comment #48 by lordskorrkeeper
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:26:13 PM

BTW if no one else noticed there are screen caps of Mothership Zeta in the screen caps, I just noticed and looks amazing imo.

Comment #49 by toastman00
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:26:48 PM

anyone have a clue if theres gonna be a raise in the level cap?

Comment #50 by Decent Fellow
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:29:31 PM

Looks great, can't wait to get it. I don't think a level cap increase is necessary at this point seeing as you can create a pretty uber character with the level 30 cap. Hopefully there will be a couple more expansions after this (@ 46), but I won't hold my breath.

Comment #51 by The Bum-Mobile
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:34:12 PM

#5, Broken Steel was to be the last and look where we are now! Not saying that this won't be the last but never say never, 'specially if you can make thousands of dollars...

Comment #52 by OnePunchEckert

It is gonna be released on retail?

"A gathering of angels appeared above my head. They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said, they said,'Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me!'"

Anyway, this looks awesome, may be the first fallout DLC I get. And check out that rifle on the guys back in the first screen shot! That thing looks pretty sexy!

Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 01:44:52 PM

Making this the last DLC would just baffle me. They're 300 points away from the 1750 threshold and it's not like releasing these DLC(s) isn't netting them a shit ton of money. Why not make this Mothership Zeta, which costs 800 points, be another 100GS expansion, then, the coup de grace, release a 1200/1600 priced one, much like how Oblivion - Shivering Isles was. 200GS, and a shit load of content. I would shell out the 1200 and maybe the 1600, though I would wait to see if the price was justified. What I'm getting at though is, how the hell are they just going to stop at 1550 (presumably)? I love Fallout; best game I've ever played. Stopping at Mothership Zeta would be a mistake IMO; why not make as much $ as you can, especially if people are willing to buy the content?

Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 02:11:15 PM

I haven't played any of the DLC, waiting for the GOTY edition. Hopefully it comes out soon cause I want to play all the DLC, this one looks really good like Point lookout.

Comment #70 by SuperWoody64
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 03:10:13 PM

If this is indeed the last expansion they should go balls deep. 10 more levels, a couple more created items (hopefully one with the wood chipper), more perks, another hidden item like the bobbleheads etc...

300 more GS would be nice too.

Comment #71 by Blackhole Riot
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 03:11:28 PM

DLC for Fallout has has just gotten better and better. Point Lookout was awesome! Hopefully this will be even better.

guess whats taking priority :(

Comment #73 by Dr Popodopolus
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 03:19:28 PM

Well atleast one thing is certain. This will have some sort of glitch in it on day 1. As for the 300GS and what it will bring we will have to see.

Comment #74 by CunningFox
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 @ 04:04:22 PM

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This looks amazing and I can't wait!

I have a weakness for buying anything to do with outer space so there had better be a great view of the Earth and an apartment in Outer Space!!!!!

Can't wait, bit dissapointed at having it pushed back from the 22nd, but if it lets them work out the glitches then I'm happy to wait.

Now just to see the achievements for it. :)

What a shame for this to be the final one, but at least we got fallout vegas to look forward to

Comment #85 by Zmoke
Wednesday, July 15, 2009 @ 12:45:51 PM

Awesome!

Even though I don't even have the game yet, this is good news. I will buy the game later time. It's incredible that if you'll buy all the 5 DLCs though, you will have to spent another €50 for the DLC just. Would the DLCs combined be bigger than the original story?

Does anyone know if they fixed the issues regarding the other DLC?? I heard some of them were not unlocking achievements or the screen kept frozing, etc...?

@ #34 / unkee888

If you didn't buy any of the DLC, you're saving like $30.

If you did already buy some DLC, then you might be wasting money.

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.

No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
