Bethesda to raise Fallout level cap to 30

[Nitrous]

Bethesda Softworks plans to raise the Fallout 3 level cap to 30 in the upcoming downloadable content for the game.

"Along with removing the game's 'ending' with Broken Steel, we figure raising the level cap would allow them to [enjoy the game for longer]. We plan on raising it to level 30 - but it will be a long, hard climb to get there!" the DLC's lead producer Jeff Gardiner told Eurogamer in an exclusive interview today.

Broken Steel will be the third instalment of DLC and is due out in March.

What what? You need to be at level 30 to play it!?

No I doubt it... just means you can level up more when playing the addon's

Eh, I misread the post:P

Also, didn't realise that there was a levelling up cap

That's great!! The current level cap was way too low.. That always did p!ssed me off on the maximum level you can reach is 20 - especially with all the cool perks you can get.
