Point Lookout (add-on)

Point Lookout is the fourth add-on for Fallout 3, developed and published by Bethesda Softworks.

Release and availability
Point Lookout was first released on June 23, 2009 as downloadable content for Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live. The PlayStation 3 version is to be released after the first three add-ons have been released.

The add-on costs 800 Microsoft points or $9.99. A disc version will be available for PC and Xbox 360 together with Broken Steel as part of the second Fallout 3 Game Add-On Pack in August 2009 (and in September 2009 in France).

This add-on's street release date was broken as it was downloadable via a Gamestop code four days before scheduled release. However, Bethesda was quick to fix this and the codes stopped working approximately two hours after the reports of them being used came in.

NOTE:

On Jul 27, 2009 a new version was released which fixes the Blast Furnace Area Ingot bug i.e the area above Wernher's Hideout had ceased being solid thus preventing players from getting the Last few Ingots. To tell the difference between the versions just look at the File Size, the glitched version is 450 MB and the fixed version is 412.57 MB.

Overview
Point Lookout takes place in the Fallout equivalent of Point Lookout State Park, a new swampland area with new quests and enemies. Point Lookout in the Fallout setting has a landscape between one sixth and one fifth the size of the Capital Wasteland where "the bombs didn't actually fall, but the world has left it behind".

Point Lookout is playable before finishing the main quest, much like Operation: Anchorage and The Pitt, which can be played immediately upon exiting Vault 101. You receive a message on-screen that initially starts the quest The Local Flavor. As with previous add-ons, the main questline is said to add about 3 to 4 hours worth of game time.

Followers cannot follow you to Point Lookout, but you are able to travel back to the Capital Wasteland with the Duchess Gambit anytime after finishing the Local Flavor mission, which means you can spend as much time as you like exploring, and still head back home when need be. It takes a month to travel to Point Lookout.
