i fucking love this screen. was playing it for a couple months a few months ago. never gets old. never.

Sir-Ex · 10-21-2010, 09:26 PM

I'm thinking I might torrent it. I bought fallout 3 and as far as i'm concerned that should be my ticket to all things fallout until fallout 4.

Sir-Ex · 10-21-2010, 09:30 PM

snowmayne you never played the 1st? But I'm guessing then you played the 2nd?

As long as you played one of the two originals.

Snowmayne · 10-21-2010, 10:48 PM

I meant to say I never played the 3rd.. I played bits of the first one but tbh I have a hard time getting into games that old, today. I'm to spoiled.

SpeedracerFL · 10-22-2010, 03:29 PM

Just got it. Firing up the vape and checking it out tonight.

m0rb1d · 10-22-2010, 05:22 PM

gonna get it in a couple days.

fallout 2 is one of the greatest games of all fucking time, so amazingly entertaining

Parallax · 10-23-2010, 10:02 PM

is this new gonna be anything like the original ones? i was a bit disappointed when i found out the third one isn't in going to be in the desert, and never ended up getting it.

Sir-Ex · 10-23-2010, 11:55 PM

I really enjoyed the original fallouts, and 3, while quite different different from the 1st two, was an awesome game that lived up to the name.

This one does take place in the desert, but essentially the exact gameplay of the 3rd with a few cool additions like iron sights and gun customization. What's really cool though is the hardcore mode, where you have to eat and drink and sleep to stay alive. Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but I think it's great.

I'd say give it a try, it's a good game. I might buy it for Ps3 later. My PC has to run it on lowest graphics settings otherwise it chugs along like a retarded korean with an infected gall bladder.

YouTube - Fallout New Vegas Collector's Edition Unboxing!

Waves · 10-24-2010, 09:56 AM

its nothing like the original ones. if you expect that top down slow rpg style gameplay thats not what its about. its an FPS with RPG elements now.

gonna fire it up today so i'll post my thoughts, and for the record i loved FO3

Snowmayne · 10-24-2010, 10:52 AM

everything im reading from people playing it is getting me super excited

hopefully mine will arrive tomorrow

Waves · 10-25-2010, 01:58 PM

played for an hour last night, i like the premise of the main quest alot more than that idiotic water plant or whatever that was the focus of FO3. but then again the main quest is only a small part of these types of games.

Waves · 10-27-2010, 02:56 PM

found out that all the towns are based on real places you can find in google maps

heres the starting town

Goodsprings, Nevada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

really fucking awesome game so far btw liking it alot better than FO3

playing it on hardcore mode at hardest difficulty is a challenge, i didnt feel any challenge at all with Fo3

Waves · 10-27-2010, 03:13 PM

primm w/ rollercoaster:

Primm, Nevada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Snowmayne · 10-27-2010, 03:16 PM

im still waiting for mine, hopefully tomorrow or Friday so I can play all weekend and start updating the thread with awesomeness.

Being · 10-27-2010, 04:32 PM

primm and goodsprings suck as towns in fallout.

i just accidentally erased a save... 3 hours lost. fail. gonna have to wait until next week for my next day off

Waves · 10-27-2010, 04:44 PM

you cant load an autosave?

do you use quicksave at all? nigga im quicksaving every time im about to do anything of even slight importance.

you playin on a console? i heard the bugs on ps3 specifically were horrendous, but in my ~12-15 hours playing on pc i only crashed once.

maszac · 10-27-2010, 06:58 PM
