Fallout: New Vegas[views:12962][posts:48]_________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:18pm - AlxNLI ""] Am I the only one psyched to be spending all my free time on this once it releases Oct 19? Just bought a gtx260 video card last night in preparation. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:26pm - ernie ""] im taking the day off. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:47pm - dertoxia ""] hehe, i just started playing fallout 3 a couple days ago |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:47pm - arktouros ""] will be a good one. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:50pm - arilliusbm ""] hehe, only fallout 1 is real. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:51pm - arilliusbm ""] obviously joking, they're all good games. never played fallout tactics too much though, was that good? |
| _________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 2:58pm - AlxNLI ""] I'm admittedly untrue, only played fallout 3. It was an intentional choice, fuck turn-based rpg's. Only real-time combat is real. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 6:01pm - reimroc ""] Fallout 3 was good but an abomination of the series. Thankfully FO: NV is being developed my some of the same team from FO1/FO2. It is going to be 10000 times better than Fallout 3. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 20,2010 8:35pm - ernie ""] its pretty much the same thing as 3. |
| _________________________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 8:57pm - ArrowHead nli on phone ""] ernie said:its pretty much the same thing as 3. This. There are some of the original developers involved, yes. However, they're using the same game engine as 3, same v.a.t.s. system and combat engine, and betheseda (so?) Is stop footing the bill. This is just a sequel to fallout 3, not a return to the original. |
| ___________________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 9:08pm - quintessence_nli ""] Playing 3 now on ps3 and its a lot of fun. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 20,2010 9:41pm - reimroc ""] haha its not the same as 3. graphically yes, but other than that they are making it more like what FO3 should've been, a next gen version of FO2. the skill/perk/ability system is the same as fallout 2, much more in depth and will effect the game MUCH more than 3's system ever did(3's MMO mechanic was non-existent). aiming can be done with iron sights. every piece of armor, ammo and item can be modded 100 different ways. you can have multiple companions/followers like FO2. multiple implants can be obtained to permanently increase skills and stats which is much more plausible than those bobbleheads. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 21,2010 12:18pm - ernie ""] people will still cry about it anyway. for anyone that doesnt know, http://www.fallout3nexus.com/ this game can be ALOT more than what you bought it as.. |

Exactly why I play games like this and Oblivion on PC. Mods galore. Not to mention that I prefer mouse/kb with anything involving killing shit. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 23,2010 10:20am - AndrewBastard ""] i literally just bought fallout 3 yesterday and played for like 6 hours last night....post apocalyptic Oblivion FTW. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 23,2010 10:54am - C.dEAD ""] I am such a Fallout newb. It took me seeing this Vegas game to get real interested in it. Now I am goin to have pick up 3 and all the DLC to see if I would even dig the new one. Also, Kane and Lynch 2 is the shit. Someone please play it online. No one bought it last week :( |
| __________________________________ [Aug 23,2010 12:35pm - reimroc ""] FO1/FO2 > FO3 New Vegas will blow Fallout 3 out of the water in terms of gameplay, story, voice acting etc etc. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 20,2010 8:37am - Slag NLI ""] Besides the Rev's birthday, anyone know what today is? |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 20,2010 11:29pm - Alx_Casket ""] bennyhillifier I hear it's got a bunch of bugs and the side missions are boring, but I don't care. This game will be mine asap. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 21,2010 10:38am - arktouros ""] i played for a couple hours last night thanks to torrent. refined fallout 3 engine. the stats, perks, crafting, battle systems are more complicated. this game is much more like the old fallouts in terms of having so many oppressive RPG rules, which is good. so far the story is more interesting from the start. it has an interesting way to setup your character (Rorschach test) that was almost dead on. i made a lucky, perceptive, stealthy, energy weapon-slinging scientist. i was psyched when it asked me if i wanted to turn on hardcore mode. (faster dehydration, broken bones can only be mended with a doctor or the proper equipment, stimpacks and other meds work over time instead of instantly, etc) yes please. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 21,2010 12:43pm - Alx_Casket ""] I played for a couple hours this morning (thanks tpb). I didn't have the intro bug in the above video but there were some odd lag spikes that I'll look into later. I heard Obsidian already released a patch for the game, and they're also working on another one. No hardcore mode for me, I'll save that for the second play-through ;) I'm digging the gameplay so far; don't mind that the graphics are a little dated. My character is a messikan with some deadly mutton chops. |

| _____________________________________ [Oct 21,2010 12:58pm - Alx_Casket ""] I'm with you on that, but I've played the hell out of Oblivion. Needed fresh blood. |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 9,2010 12:46pm - Alx_Casket ""] Still insanely addicted to this. @aril: [img] |
| _________________________________ [Nov 9,2010 12:51pm - reimroc ""] game fucking rules [img] |
| ______________________________ [Nov 9,2010 1:30pm - Fist ""] Don't mod the weathered 10mm if you preordered the game, crazy fucked up bug makes the gun unusable on xbox. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 8,2011 12:05am - Alx_Casket ""] Dead Money dlc comes to PS3 and PC on 2/22, with 3 additional dlc's releasing simultaneously on all systems in the coming months... |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 8,2011 12:09am - ArrowHeadNLI ""] Jesus, I gotta start playing this again. I stalled out trying to save some pussy from being eaten at the casino without accidentally killing everyone in the building on the way out. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 21,2011 2:52pm - Slag ""] Left with little productive work to do on my vacation, i'm installing this now. Anything I should I look out for? |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 2:55pm - arktouros ""] considering how much you liked fallout 3, see ya next month |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 2:56pm - arktouros ""] i haven't made it any further than lvl 15 because once again with all bethesda games, i lost my save file. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 2:57pm - arktouros ""] and holding out for Elder Scrolls V. no looking back. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 3:02pm - Alx_Casket ""] The ending pissed me off. I made multiple save points so I could take different pathways to see the different endings but I still don't any of the endings (similar to how I felt at the end of fallout 3). |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 3:03pm - AndrewBastard ""] I'm trying to play shivering isles right now and it keeps saying my disk is unreadable. I want to kill myself. |

I made multiple save points so I could take different pathways to see the different endings but I still don't any of the endings (similar to how I felt at the end of fallout 3). After the end of fallout 3, my entire goal in New Vegas is NOT to finish. If anything smells like a major plotline, I avoid it or fuck it up. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 21,2011 3:22pm - Slag ""] I'm sure i'll quit it after I play it for 20 hours in the next two days :-( |
| ______________________________ [Mar 21,2011 6:09pm - Slag ""] First impression: I'm totally bored with video games. |
| ______________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 6:15pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""] Oh, game is slightly lame until you get to vegas. |
| ______________________________ [Mar 21,2011 6:17pm - Slag ""] I'm not sure if it has anything to do with this game in particular. It was pretty cool so far. I think in general, i'm just bored with video games and would rather do real shit. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 6:27pm - Alx_Casket ""] Well, there is that... |

| ______________________________________ [Aug 31,2022 3:28pm - the_reverend ""] got a steam deck today. Finally playing it. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 13,2022 8:31pm - the_reverend ""] I'm really enjoying this game. I just wish I could figure out how to get better guns. |

| ______________________________________ [May 13,2023 6:27pm - the_reverend ""] I've been playing it a lot since then and I still never figured out how to get or make better guns |
| ______________________________________ [May 13,2023 6:47pm - the_reverend ""] Just be at the doctor morbius the DLC and got back into the normal world |
| ______________________________________ [May 15,2023 9:23am - the_reverend ""] Started the lonesome path. |
| _____________________________________ [May 1,2024 9:20pm - the_reverend ""] started it up again. Oh, I put it down almost a year ago on the lonesome path. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 12,2024 8:32am - Alx_Casket ""] Get this and begin again https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/57927 |
