dude I'm a uber fan of the fallout series, the second I saw it available for pre order, I ordered it.

the pre order was also cheaper during the pre order special weekend, as was fallout 3, morrowind, and oblivion.

I enjoy saving money on games I know for a fact I'm gonna buy lol.

how you figure? it's the same as fallout 3, it's just new territory, quests, ppl... blah blah. it's not an expansion.

lol point look out is down loadable content and an expansion. new vegas is a all together new game. it's not a cheap ass DLC that lasts 2 hours.

but seriously now, does it look like a seperate game? it's almost like starcraft 2. fallout 3 was the terran campaign, and new vegas is the protoss one. they're the same game, just different content.

the only reason starcraft 2 is being released in stages is cause the single player campaign now has like 60 missions per race. the first SC had like 30 missions for all the races.


dude it's post apocalytpic, the hell diff are you expecting? the entire world is a shitty wasteland from the war Lol... there for all fallout games look similar cause of extreamly obvious reasons.

and yes, if you go actually check new vegas out it's beyond obvious it's a new game.

why do you noobs keep saying that? America is GONE...

by your logic dead rising 2 looks like an expansion... starcraft 2 looks like an expansion.... any mario game past the first 1 looks like an expansion, every other doom game other then the first looks like an expansion... fear 2 is an expansion, fallout 2 is an expansion from fallout 1. oblivion = expansion of morrowind, every mega man is an expansion of the first. come on lol.......


there is so many new features in new vegas and they even made running and gunning possible now with the new iron sights.... there is so much shit they did 2 make the game better it's crazy.
new vegas is out in 2 weeks and it's gonna pwwn in sales, and reviews.

Bioshock 2 had upgraded graphics didn't it?

This though is basically like Crysis, and Crysis: Warhead. Two different games, same engine and graphics but different story. If FO3:NV is a game on it's own in the sense that you can do everything you could in the first one, plus a little extra, just in a completely different place with different players, then it's an expansion.. Expansion of the original FO3 world.

which fallout NV also has... as well as more missions than fallout 3, new settings, customizable guns, double the amount of guns, companion wheel, and running and gunning like FPS style is now available... you could do it in fallout 3 but it didn't work that well, with iron sights implemented it's now an option.

I really could careless what you want 2 call this game, the fact is it's gonna pwwn and it's out in less then 2 weeks =p

maynard
10-23-2010, 07:43 PM
Ok....


so this game is Awesome... 2 the point where I don't think id honestly ever play fallout 3 again...... I do miss the overall feel of the wastes... the cannibals... and the feel of every 1 trying 2 survive on a daily basis... in new vegas ppl are far better off, you can live off the land, crops are grown... it's far more stable.

-what I like most of all about this is how they made it so you only get a perk point every second lvl so you can't just get all the perks and be a God
-iron sights make vats not even needed, giving the game a real FPS feel
-you don't spend jack shit for time in buildings or subways. so you're not seeing the same shit over and over and over... in this 1 you're just running around the Mojave doing tasks for people constantly... the odd time you get asked 2 go into a building or vault, but it's real rare.
-a SHITLOAD of side quests... I heard there's 100 hours worth of side quests now so that's just strait up awesome.... ive been doing side quests non stop for like 14 hours, havent even done 2 much in the main story line....
-new vegas gives a far greater sense of realism... there's multiple factions, and an endless stream of people you can talk with and get quests from in the game... in fallout 3 there was what the 3 main city's... and a few little towns that's about it, new vegas BLOWS fallout 3 of out the water, in terms of having more 2 do, and more ppl 2 converse with. it's almost overwhelming sometimes....
-mailing system rules, you can now send your stuff from 1 place 2
-upgraded graphics
-weapon mods are sick, and fun.


and what I didn't like about it.....
basically just all the glitches and problems they're having with it. I don't know why they would have released the game when it was clearly not ready. they've been releasing patches and what not 2 fix things constantly, but still... why release it if it's ont ready...

so yeah... other then the glitch issues and the odd freeze, this game is fucking amazing and makes fallout 3 look more like the original fallout when compared 2 new vegas... new vegas is awesome. id give this game 9/10

I found my self at times over whelmed with how often a quest would branch off.

I loved this part of the game, where you get a quest from the first host and you have options regarding completing the quest given, options like kill whom ever help whom ever find a civil and diplomatic soultion ect. im going on 55 hours of game play and i havnt even done half of what i can only imagine is left in the game.

I love love love The weapon options and ammo reloading ect.

Iv found so many crazy Unique special weapons io cant even remember them all.

I know eh! you go and do 1 quest and find 5 more along the way Lol... and they're actually fun quests. I love new vegas.. the more I play it the better it becomes.

I'm 30 hours in and the more I play, the better and more fun I just keep having. the story is really well done in this 1 as is the side quests.

when I heard there's over a 100 hours of side quests I figured it was bullshit... starting 2 look like it's true lol.

like I said before... this game is so fucking awesome I honestly couldn't see myself playing fallout 3 again now that I own NV, they did an AMAZING job with this game.

I like this expansion better than FO3.

Has more realism to it since hardcore was added.. But when you're level 30 and have the best weapons and armor in the game and you still can't kill 3 super mutants who gang up on you, there's a problem with balancing issues.

I got so annoyed I gave myself max stats and still couldn't kill but one of them..

I specialize in energy weapons, right? I found a plasma weapon that does like 120 damage, it's some type of super plasma rifle. Used it on super mutants, and it takes like 3 shots to get them half way down. By then I'm dead in like 4.

I got tired of her, so I remade my character. Made an old guy who wears a white suit and hates everything. He is the destroyer of worlds. Haven't had the same problem with him.. He kills scorpians with no problem compared to my other character.

Been playing this game alot lately.... Made a few chars and went down different paths with each.

First advice... always get some kind of armor with a high DT... the one I always get... because of its uniqueness, lightness... and high dt... is the chinese stealth armor... its extremely easy to get... you can get it at level one... just gotta walk to hoover dam...

Also... Myself on different characters I specialized in different weapon styles... my favorite was small arms (pistols) because there are a rediculous amount of perks that benefit it, at high levels I was able to kill super mutants in about 3 shots with the "Mysterious Magnum" I was using hollowpoints.

The one that new vegas chose to go all out with though was melee specialists... with the number of "trainable" perks from various people... one on one you can be the cheapest bastard ever... about every attack nocks your apponent down, and even the most powerful apponent just lies there as you beat them senslesly.

So yeah, I sided with Ceasar's Legion, and he wanted me to kill the president.

The issue is that my character is all melee.

So what I did was get a bunch of stealth boys, hid at the top of the stairs where the president came out, and then as he came up to me uppercut his head right off.

None of the Rangers even freaked out. It was great.

nope.


"As the popularity and speed of internet connections rose, so did the popularity of using the internet for digital distribution of media. User-created game mods and maps were distributed exclusively online, as they were mainly created by people without the infrastructure capable of distributing the content through physical media.

The majority of such content was available for free, and the phrase "downloadable content" is rarely used to refer to such content, instead being termed "user-created content."


DLC = content made by the actual game developers, and in 98% of all cases it costs you money 2 get it, cause it's generally like an expansion pack for whichever game your getting the DLC is for.

MOD = fan made content that is made off the existing coding of the game and is free.

I'm not surprised you ignored the first paragraph in order to argue fucking semantics.

Schooling me how?

He cheerypicked a quote from wikipedia citing how mods were part of DLC content. Them "rarely" being referred to as such doesn't change the fact DLC can mean user created content.

Cool internet points for you guys getting all "nuh uh you are wrong" about what I said. Either way nobody asked what "DLC" it was, it was "what is that?" which implies that Res has no idea what he is looking at in terms of a DLC, mod, or whatever.



All that "DLC MOD ZOMG LETS ARGUE ABOUT IT FOR SEVEN PAGES" aside, I think it is badass to have all that equipment, not to mention a riot shotgun and mg42 to boot.

cherrypicked ? lol how you figure, I went 2 the page you used 2 claim you were correct, saw "On personal computers" heading, so I read what it said relating 2 PC mod/DLC.... and after reading it and seeing it strait up says"

How did you get your FPS to stay solid, even while using FRAPs?

I tend to get from 10-20 FPS and I have no idea why.

if you want 2 make the game look Way better without taking a hit on your FPS or without pushing your system use this mod

http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=38196#fileanchor

you will also need fallout mod manager

http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36901

very worth if you're still playing. the mod makes the game look so much better. really brings the color out in the game.

any 1 else moding there NV and found some decent ones?

Gah, I got the game. I've gotten to the part where I meet Benny. He pulled a quick one on my eyes and now I have to visit the Legion. Vulpes said something about me having a "mark of safety" MY ASS it's like he gave me the mark of death. Do I have to wear Legion armor in order to visit them, or do I have to just leave all my pals behind, because I had gotten a companion mod.


Will just wearing my regular armor get me through safely? I'm want to punch Benny so hard right now.

Never mind, the problem was Boone. Anyways after those douche bags made me go to their leader. I recruited 2 other companions (more than 1 companion mod) with Boone, called in NCR support and wrecked their Cottonwood base.

I got a very nice magnum and hunting rifle from them. I'm not a fan of their chainsaws though.
