Fallout 3 Hints
Flooded Metro
1 of 10: This metro area has an exterior entrance at Flooded Metro (location 19 on the Zone 9 Map), plus an exit to Mason District South (Mason District region). This guided tour assumes you're entering from the exterior area.
2 of 10: Raid the Nuka-Cola vending machine next to where you enter, then go past it and check the fallen-over lockers to see if they have anything in them. Go through the doorway near them, then through an openable door.
3 of 10: Go down a service tunnel and through another door, then turn right and head up to where you'll find a doorway on your left, checking for tin cans as you go. Go through the doorway to reach a large room with several supplies.
4 of 10: Go down the stairs in the room, then turn left and go up a few more stairs to reach a large "border walkway" room that you should search for supplies.
5 of 10: Turn around and go back east to find another room with stairs leading down. Past them, skip the useless room on the right, and move on to another "border walkway" room. Go down its stairs and along the walkways until you reach the first part of the mirelurk hatchery at the bottom.
6 of 10: Past the hatchery area, go up sloping tunnels until you reach a room with some stairs in the center and a door in the east wall. After checking the one interactive filing cabinet near the room's SW corner for items, go through the east door to get to a trapped supply area.
7 of 10: Return to the room with the stairs, and refrain from going down them to a flooded radioactive area. Instead, climb up the stairs to reach a room with some tin cans on the floor, some filing cabinets to search, and some abraxo cleaner on a table.
8 of 10: Climb to the room at the top of the stairs, then loot all three interactive gun cabinets before going through the open doorway and checking a garbage can.
9 of 10: There's nothing to the right past the doorway except rubble, so go left and on until you find a door in the right (west) wall.
10 of 10: Go through it and the other door a short ways past it to reach the room with the exit to Mason District South.
