Visit Big Town (directly north of Vault 101, on the Vault side of the River) and speak with Bittercup. She will mention dating Pappy. Talk with Pappy and mention Bittercup's remark in a Speech challenge. Even if you fail, the challenge will still be available -- simply try over and over to merit success. Upon success, you'll get 5 EXP, and the option to try again will still remain. Simply repeat successes as long as you like. You can reach level 20 in only a matter of hours, rather than days. Enjoy!

~~ DOESN'T WORK / PATCHES ~~
The game publisher, Bethesda, has issued mandatory game fixes for all of the major consoles with online access for this game. In order to use this glitch, you'll probably have to remove the patch. This video is about the glitch, not about patch removal. All new comments about how the glitch doesn't work will be ridiculed for not reading this section first, then you'll read it, and slap yourself. Just to say so, i *would not* advise trying this glitch if your system is already patched. There are plenty of other glitches that don't need unpatched games than to go to all that trouble.

"go to settings,memory, when it says hardrive press Y. press clear cache that will remove patch then disconnect from xbox live and start the game up it will work then."

(for PS3) Solypsys writes:
"Go under the Game tab and select Game Data Utility.
Highlight the Fallout 3 entry and press triangle then press delete. Disconnect the internet to your PS3 (pull the plug if necessary) and enjoy. Keep your internet disconnected as long as you want to play unpatched. Redownload the patch before earning trophies, otherwise you wont get them."

~WARNING~
Any armor or weaps that you find in any of the post-patch addons (such as Anchorage treasures, etc) will be removed if you remove the patches (but not your save games, just the inventory items). I would NOT recommend using this trick anymore (it was posted and was good just after the game was released and before any patches/addons were out yet) unless you have no DLC yet. There is no way to remove just the patches from Fallout 3.

Try the console system boards at GameFAQS.com if you have any more questions about patches, don't ask them here.

~~ LEVEL 20 ~~
Can you only get up to level 20 with this glitch? You can only get to level 20 if you don't have the Brotherhood of Steel add-on (or have purchased a future GOTY edition). After that, you can only get to level 30. It's not the glitch's fault, it's part of the game itself.


~~ RUINS FUN ~~
Some say this glitch takes the fun out of the game, and they're certainly welcome to think that. However, I think having twenty perks practically from the beginning makes the game more fun, instead of running around being severely limited for most of it while you bother with leveling up. That's what glitching is, really. Also, for those of us with 200-hour characters looking to mix things up, this trick helps skip past some of the more boring elements. Play how you want, I'll play my game how I like.


~~ SILVER TONGUE ~~
Chances are, if you use this trick for getting all the way up to level 20 (I suggest waiting to use the "Here and Now" perk only when you reach level 19, so you'll save the most time) you'll end up with over 2000 successes. So yes, you can unlock the Silver Tongue achievement (50 successes) with this.


~~ TROPHIES ~~
I don't have a PS3, but I'm certain that since the update for PS3 includes the trophy system, that you won't be able to be awarded trophies if you delete the update. Google it.


~~ FINDING BITTERCUP ~~
The trick will only work as long as you've gotten on Bittercup's good side (one chance, when you first meet her. Pappy must also still be alive, naturally. If you can't find her, it's probably day time. She sleeps in the day, so go look in the beds.


~~ IS SANDMAN QUICKER? ~~
Not necessarily. If you've got high enough speech skill (or higher Charisma is better), then you can get a success every time. With Andale, you get 50EXP but have to wait for an animation to run its cycle every time. With this, you can get 6EXP per selection, but you can skip his response and keep hammering it. If you're fast on the button-mashing, you can get over 50 in the same amount of time you get 50 with Andale.

  • @eurosonly - I am the original uploader (check the date).. who do you suppose I stole it from?

  • @SmAlLcHiLdx - checking the date I uploaded it, in comparison to the date others uploaded theirs, would show that I was first. Showing the date *I* uploaded it is precisely how I win.
