I didn't have a high enough charisma, so I ended up killing Vance and getting all of his stuff for free. Not too long after, I got the Alien Blaster. Suffice to say I really didn't have to worry much through the game.
My dad used to play this game and I watched him a lot playing it. When you open the main electricity, you can open the left elevator with blue card and go cut off the main electricity before going in, leaving the elevator open. With that, you dont have to deal with the robots in the 5th floor.
@@ValdVincent Oh no, I'm not so resistant to radiation anymore! Oh the humanity! Oh poor little me! Oh oh yeah Glow is the only place where radiation is an actual danger, nevermind then
Thank you so much for these vids, they helped a lot. I was getting stumped. I had figured out that the vault I needed was accessed through Necropolis but i could not figure out how to get there. I did not observe the man hole. I also did not observe the method to get down into the glow. Thanks so much.
Thanks for the video. Saved me from going back to the glow without rad-x. Also didn't know thode robots were going to come alive, they looked like scraps without entering vats.
Companions seems to be immune to the radiation for some reason. Like as if they have 100% radiation resistance already without wearing power armor (FixIt mod) or popping in Rad-X twice.
all companions every fallout game have radiation resistance if im not mistaken. so your companions can survive lethal doses of radiation whereas your character can only take up to 1000 rads before dying
I explored all of the glow, soon to be doomed by the radiation. The saves before the exploration saved my playtrough. It's a good thing to have multiple saves.
Got it and downloaded all the records from the mainframe, this game surprises me by how packed and detailed it is, im gonne try for the secret ending and thanks for the guide!
Fantastic series, Caedo. Even though I don't intend to play Fallout 1, I still find these videos very entertaining and informative to watch. Keep it up! Just wish you had more views, you really deserve them.
You didn't mention how you can cheese getting in to level 5 (this is assuming you already repaired the power) First turn off primary power while it's off kill all the robots in floor 6 and 4 (they can't attack you while it's off) Turn it back on and open the elevator quickly turn the primary power off and get in the elevator and go to floor five and kill all the robots the power should be off so they can't hit you If you ate afraid you'll be trapped there don't worry there is a terminal down there so you can turn the power back on When you get all your loot go back to floor 4 or 6 and turn primary power back off and you can go back to the surface
Easier way: 1. Repair the generator. Do NOT turn primary power on 2. Go to supercomputer. Hack it to main frame. turn power on and turn security off 3. Go wherever you want with full light and no pesky robots. P.S. One of robots on level 6 has sniper riffle, usefull before you upgrade your plasma
Make sure you destroy as many of the robots as you can before you restore the power. That's easy XP. Also, as far as Vance goes, you can skip getting introduced and just click "Barter" as soon as you talk to him, then of course leave politely and you can avoid conflict or having to pay (I actually didn't know that the gun dealer would direct you to him too).
Haha, did you know that even with 2 Rad-X you still get irradiated on the 1 and the 2 levels of the Glow? I came there with a Geiger counter and I got nearly 400 Rads or so. Most of it I got because of prolonged exploring of level 1, but level 2 is radioactive too so don't stay for too long on them. Robots are easily disabled through ZAX computer and everything said in this video is pretty much correct.
I kept playing chess with the computer on level 4, time passed and my rad wore out lol. Good thing I took radx gradually and I survived. I think it lasts for a few hours.
i was worried that you would need to go really far into the glow for tw bos quest, but i can do it at a low level thanks, all i need to do is save the initiate for power armor reward
Doing this will lock you from increasing your stats permanently, if you go to the glow get heavily radiated and on your return trip to BOS you could trigger a random encounter on the world map stating "You Feel Stronger!" This will increase all your stats but due to being heavily radiated you will permanently lose some Endurance, just bring a hell of a lot of rad away or u will definitely die after the encounter. Not a single FAQ or TH-cam video had ever shown this encounter. Some players who played this game, way back when could support this statement if they had ever encountered it. I'm not 100% sure how to trigger this encounter consistently, because it could be just random luck or could require a particular set of stats or skills for it to trigger, as it only happened to me twice in roughly 30 playthroughs, yes i replayed the hell out of this game when it first came out. I think only a data miner could figure this out, as nothing else exists to support my statement at this very moment.
That's weird. If that have special text, so it's not a glitch. I jus't looked through list of messeges, but i haven't find anything about radiation. Maybe i should try to look through another version...
Hey, maybe it's "you feel better", because of radiation poisoning and taking some RadAway ? Because i found info about that glitch, increasing SPECIAL to 10
Make sure you take the radX before you enter the facility, speaking from personal experience because I soft locked my blind fallout 1 playthrough by doing all the cardinal sins of consuming skill books, passing time, etc. If i try to leave it kills me.
Hey! I'm pretty fresh to this game, and I not only got BoS power armor, but also got the water chip. I was gonna prepare for Mariposa, and I think I can get tons of caps for good weapons. But where could I grind some xp? I haven't tagged energy weapons, and I feel like I'll need a plasma rifle or something.
Oh man, breezing through The Glow two decades ago with ease just to die on the way home from radiation. I was angry then, but now I admire this game that punish you for playing careless
I remember when I got to the glow for the first time, I was doing the brotherhood initiation (obviously). I soft blocked myself in the glow after exploring the entirety of it and not using enough radx, and I'm pretty sure I either read a book or used the pipboy alarm, then saved the game soon after. I didn't die, but I was so fucking radiated that I was stuck there forever, due to the fact I had NO radaway and NO other save files for that playthrough. If I tried to leave and travel the wasteland, dead 💀
Some of RadX and RadAway can be founded on corpses. But if you didn't take RadX just after arriving, that can be not enough + it takes time for RadAway
Worst thing ever when that happens. I did a similar thing in stalker clear sky, literally 5 mind before the end of the game i ran out of meds and ammo, couldn't go back couldn't go forward... Absolute worst..
I went exploring in the glow and after finishing I went to leave and I've got like 1700 rads and I can get it down to 700ish with the rad away i have and I've also got rad-x but I barely get anywhere after I try to travel on the map and I die any tips or anything that will help me out
a year too late, but a tip/trick would be delete the file and start a new one - all done without any resentment or ill feelings. You know full well it will be quick and easy to get back there - and don't forget fun. Okay, now I will have to ask for $45 via paypal... Time ain't free my man, and I have spent time giving you a tip and a trick. Pay me.
IIRC, if you barter with them instead of stealing, their inventories bug and they can hold infinite weight. Just give them what you want off your inventory and steal it back when the time comes.
Plan B, Fallout 1 and 2 are completely different from the others (as you probably could tell), but are still extremely fun. Be prepared to google a lot of things tho, no hand holding in those games.
so me being a modern fallout player i only took one of the 2 rad-x pills i had went in to the glow. Finished everything and now i am stuck in a constant death loop everyatime i want to travel away from the glow because the game does not tell you how fucked up you are with radiation until its too late. Well at least i now know what i did wrong.... Thank you
I remember back in like 1998 when i played this game I went into the glow and i got some sort of radiation glitch that boosted my stats.... don't know if it was a glitch or what... made my job beating the game a lot easier.
I didn't bring any rad x and only had 1 main save slot and saved inside the glow when I already had to much radiation, so I had to restart the game completely 😭
you probably figured it out by now but by any chanfe here is the answer. I got the problem too and its because in this game radiation does damage over time so it kicks in after you either wait or travel. So basically you have too much radiation: the only solutions are to either take all the radaway you have an hope that it is enough or reload back to a save before goin in and taking 2 rad-x before going in. Make sure to not read any books or to wait with your pip boy while you are in there because that will make the rad-x wear off
I took 1 going in another om floor 3 and another on the last floor while taking 5 radaways whenever i took 3 messages of large rads lo i used combat movement to get past the active sentries and just shot the inactive ones lol
I’m trying to leave the glow but I ran out of Radaways and I’m using rad x as an alternative. After that I used a med kit to cure myself from the radiation. After when I’ve done those things, as soon as I leave the glow, I keep dying. Can someone tell what to do here?
Rad-X raises your resistance to radiation before you've absorbed it, just like any other Fallout game. Using it after already getting heavily irradiated will do nothing. You might need to go to a previous save or take a bunch of stat boosting chems (Buffout, Mentats, ETC) and pray. From what I understand, it's not strictly the rads that kill you, it also happens when your SPECIAL attributes drop to zero. If Rad Away isn't working/available, you could try taking all the stat boosting chems you've got like I mentioned. Otherwise you might have to go to an earlier save and use two doses of Rad-X first, then go into The Glow like I showed.
When I try to leave the glow I get an error message and my game crashes when I take the elevator back up to level 3. so I guess this is where vault dweller loses
Hey guys, I can't find this anywhere on the internet so I might as well ask here. On one of my playthroughs I managed to glitch my SPECIAL. I was going the glow quest and my rad levels were so high that my strength dropped below a point where I could move so I used buffout, and I must've used mentats as well. I had the "skin falling off" levels of Rad. But when it normalized the game gave me too much stats back, I believe Str, End, Int and Agi got maxed out, Cha was 8. Can't remember whether I got addicted too and withdrawal symtoms were also involved in the glitch. Has ANYONE encountered something similar?
I know there's a similar glitch using the Jet Antidote in Fallout 2 to max out attributes, but I haven't heard of it happening in the classics. Then again I haven't really let my character's get irradiated to that point and survive either!
If ypu can't see the corpse with the red keycard then you probably have the german version of the game ,you simply neee to change the language to english over steam if you bought it from there
So I entered that hell hole using only one rad-x (until my rad resistance is *95%*) got deep into the facility but I decided to go back and get the power armour got topside and when leaving I immediately die I knew that my radiation levels were high so I used all of my radaway yet it still flash in the character screen so I used fallout save editor to see exactly how much left which was 1197 (after using about 15 radaway) I could not leave the glow so I reduced my rad level to 0 using the save editor yet I still die So is there is any way to fix this or did my save file given up the ghost?
It is insanely heartwarming to see that people create guides for this great game even in 2018. Fallout 1-2 were great achievements by Black Isle Studios....then the rights were sold to a soulless corporation called Bethesda. Tragic ending..
One Rad-X gives you 50% radiation resistance and lasts for 2 days, two would give you 100% radiation resistance but will only last for one day. I recommend bringing two Rad-Xs because you can find more in the facility.
I fucked up and went to the glow with, uh, let's just say a *large* underestimation of how much radiation there is. Brought like 4 radx's and 5 rad-aways. After eventually leaving after finding the holodisk for the Brotherhood, fixing the generator, and getting info on the FEV from the computer I left and tried to go to the hub for more rad-away before I die from exposure; I got 1 day worth of travel outside of the glow before dying. Now, you're probably thinking "just reload an old save form before you entered the glow for the first time" and well that's the problem. I overwrote all of the save files while I was in the glow like the fucking idiot I am and I'm now stuck in a death loop. Great.
same here. Im trying to cheat my way out with save editors but even turning healing rate, radiation resistance, and HP to 999, still instant kill. Did you manage to fix it?
YOU'VE RECEIVED A LARGE DOSE OF RADIATION

Thank you for this awesome guide !
Fallout 4 has the least radition,at most 60 a second, compared to 3's 1001 a second
1-2k rad per second
Elkin Nort Lee didn't like how they made radation less deadly
Beats me, FO4's rad system had some tweak so imagine 1.3k rads per secons instantly ramming your health down to 0
Well 60 rads/sec can drain your health real quick and 1000 would be an insta kill with even with power armor and radx probably
Still, 60 rad/sec is pretty lame. 700-1200 rad/sec is what i called a radioactive hazard
idk why but the glow is just some simple name for such a dangerous place

How about the bug where you get heavily irradiated, suffer penalties on SPECIAL, get back more points, and use Rad Away.

Rad-X raises your resistance to radiation before you've absorbed it, just like any other Fallout game. Using it after already getting heavily irradiated will do nothing.
You might need to go to a previous save or take a bunch of stat boosting chems (Buffout, Mentats, ETC) and pray. From what I understand, it's not strictly the rads that kill you, it also happens when your SPECIAL attributes drop to zero.

I knew that my radiation levels were high so I used all of my radaway yet it still flash in the character screen so I used fallout save editor to see exactly how much left which was 1197 (after using about 15 radaway) I could not leave the glow so I reduced my rad level to 0 using the save editor yet I still die
So is there is any way to fix this or did my save file given up the ghost?
I try to leave and 2 secs traveling in map I die of radiation poisoning - wtf
bro im trying to steal the rifle from the robots and it says I've been caught stealing
by WHO!?
How do you leave though because whenever I leave the circle I just die from radiation no matter what
Nice
The first time I went there I never died and I stayed a lot of time
Do you need the rad x to go into the glow if you have power armor?
Yes
Does the radiation not affect your companions?
You can just click the barter button on vance
Is there something I need to do to trigger the corpse/remains on the second level with the red key card? There is no corpse in this area in my game
The corpse should be there try brightening the game so you can see them there really black like ash
It is insanely heartwarming to see that people create guides for this great game even in 2018. Fallout 1-2 were great achievements by Black Isle Studios....then the rights were sold to a soulless corporation called Bethesda. Tragic ending..
Life saver,
No Dislikes. Enough said.
Because of you...
B T Dinkle Burrrrrg!!
Is Paladin Hughes a nod to this BoS quest?
How long does the Rad X last, also how much Rad X should I bring?
One Rad-X gives you 50% radiation resistance and lasts for 2 days, two would give you 100% radiation resistance but will only last for one day. I recommend bringing two Rad-Xs because you can find more in the facility.
I fucked up and went to the glow with, uh, let's just say a *large* underestimation of how much radiation there is. Brought like 4 radx's and 5 rad-aways. After eventually leaving after finding the holodisk for the Brotherhood, fixing the generator, and getting info on the FEV from the computer I left and tried to go to the hub for more rad-away before I die from exposure; I got 1 day worth of travel outside of the glow before dying. Now, you're probably thinking "just reload an old save form before you entered the glow for the first time" and well that's the problem. I overwrote all of the save files while I was in the glow like the fucking idiot I am and I'm now stuck in a death loop. Great.
same here. Im trying to cheat my way out with save editors but even turning healing rate, radiation resistance, and HP to 999, still instant kill. Did you manage to fix it?
Do the companions need rad protection?
Nope!
Is there any good loot and the first or second level?
yea there's tons of 223 ammo, radaway, stimpaks etc..😊
@@Max-rn3eb thx
how the fuck do I leave the glow
Wow the corpse with the red key card didnt spawned..
does the steam version work on win 10 ?
Adam Richardson yes it does
Yeah, I had some resolution issues so I had to use an unofficial patch though.
Yo guys when I try to go to level 3 my game fucking crashes, what can I do?
I still watched it anyway.
Great so my ONE save is inescapable from death
Thank ya
what happens if you go with companions? do they also need rad-x?
No
