Oh, you.

 

:D

 

Here's hoping that criticism will be wrong, but I have low hopes for Bethesda actually improving anything.

(...)

Are the bugs because of Obsidian or because the Gamebyro engine is already a buggy PoS.

welp, dunno about graphical bugs but unsolvable quests and game-breaking bugs... i think both. Gamebryo doesn't seem to handle branching very well and Obsidian clearly didn't put much effort in testing. 1node, binary radiant quests are awesome, right? right?

The southeastern United States hasn't really been explored all that much in the series, has it? The first 2 were all in California, 3 is D.C., and New Vegas is... Vegas, and the surrounding Mojave area (plus Utah). Being a Florida native myself, I'd like to see what the war did to this region and the surrounding states. Maybe a future game taking place around Louisiana or Florida.

 
A member of this very forum - not me - had a great take on this.
 

Old World Blues was hard? i always thought Dead Money was the most difficult. or most boring, i can never remember.
 
i know they won't hand FO to Obsidian. that's why i want F4 as much as i don't :/
don't mind bugs (Eye: Divine Cybermancy being the closest thing to a perfect game). 


Yeah, I thought Dead Money was the biggest slog too. You lose your inventory, the death cloud is obnoxious, and the enemies are plentiful. With OWB, I could see it being frustrating if you didn't have melee or energy weapons proficiency because of the roboscorpions? I guess?

These days, I just accept that FO games are going to be too buggy to be worthwhile at release, wait a year or so for the patches, mods, and DLC, and avoid the angst and heartache. FNV is one of my favorite games now but only because I waited out the "barely playable" period.

I personally hate the idea of the player character being voiced. Their reactions/tones have a habit of not matching the way I envisioned the words being said (mean, when I read the words as sarcastic or nice).

That better not be real. Voiced protagonist. No Ron Pearlman. The intro itself is horribly written. It doesn't match up thematically with the previous Fallouts (even 3), and it's written as if the game's timeline is the Great War itself.

Looks absolutely dreadful.

Guess I continue being one of the rare few that loved Dead Money to pieces and it still sits as a highlight to my NV replays. :lol: Ahh well.

If I had to rate the New Vegas DLCs, it would be:

 

Old World Blues (the personality cores in the Sink instantly make the DLC better than anything else, and the Big Empty is so gut-wrenchingly 50's with its depiction of science)

Honest Hearts (because Joshua Graham is my favorite Fallout character, ever)

Lonesome Road (Because Ed-E)

Dead Money (I liked Christine and the lore surrounding the Sierra Madre, but the gameplay for the DLC was awful)

 

I think Fallout 3 is the better game, but New Vegas has some seriously cool DLC going for it. Old World Blues and Mothership Zeta are my personal favorites between both games (Zeta doesn't really have a "plot" though, per se, but god it's like you're playing the lead role in a cheesy 50's B-movie, and I adore that).

Keh, now would you look at that.

 

As I mentioned earlier, I had a severe case of being the most unfortunate lucky bastard in the Wasteland, getting the Firelance random encounter on my trip to the Super Duper Market for Moira at the start of the game, only to be unable to find the Firelance itself, which probably got stuck somewhere inaccessible as I couldn't find it even after scouring the entire vicinity. So I had to revert to an earlier savegame where the event wasn't yet triggered in hope that whenever the same random encounter would occur again, the Firelance wouldn't be inaccesible in hopes to be able to get my hands on it.

 

Turns out that once I got to play again today from the earlier savegame, I walked there again and lo and behold, I get the Firelance encounter again and found that thing plus its ammo (except for two Alien Power Cells from the total of 24 that spawn with the Firelance during the encounter, as they were stuck mid air too high for me to reach even with jumping, guess something like that was the cause I couldn't find the Firelance in the previous encounter). The incredible thing is, the savegame I reverted to was in Megaton, before the encounter was triggered (obviously, as was the point of reverting to that savegame, duh) and thus also outside the Super Duper Market random encounter trigger zone. What are the chances I'd get the same rare random encounter again, immediately after the other one?

 

Dayum, I should really start playing the lottery!

There was a tech demo made for Van Buren which would be the tutorial and it would take place during the Great War.

 

http://fallout.wikia...Buren_tech_demo

 

This might be a relic of that or they decided to make a full game out of it.

I really find it funny when old Fallout fans gripe about Bethesda's FO3 which sold more than all the previous Fallouts. All they need to do is add a lot more quests than what FO3 had and FO4 will be the game of the year. Expect Skyrim with guns.

COD is the greatest RPG of all time! Just look at the sales!

Well let's hope Fallout 4 is on the horizon.

I really liked FO :NV...and I just miss playing a good open world game where you can be a total looney.

Im replaying Fallout 3 at the moment, mainly just to polish off a couple of cheevos I never got. 

 

The late game is so unrewarding after the main quest and the DLC.  Its very hard to keep going unlike New Vegas (which does hit a wall in itself). Skyrim isn't as bad as although questlines repeat there is enough of them to offer something. 

 

I just hope they can get a little more colour into the next fallout. If were going to be playing for so long I would like a little more variety in my landscape and the palette in use.

 

Hopefully the enemies we fight just dont become like the Abino Radscorpions again ("I know more challenge is more HP!!!")

 

I think im just re-echoing the complaints that have gone on for a while though.

Any Wishlists for fallout 4?

 

Ways of setting up our own home/hideouts.

It doesn't have to be as extensive as Heartfire but you'd think a badass, lonely wanderer in a post apocalyptic wasteland who is not traveling but rather surviving within the same location would have stashes of weapons, food, etc hidden in tactically advantangeous spots in the Wastes.

You can do this artificially by picking some spot with matresses and dropping items there but that is hardly the same.

 

Vanilla animations for sleeping, waking up, eating, drinking, etc would help immersion too.

God I love The Pitt DLC. That atmosphere is the Steelyard intense.

 

And it's amazing I still pretty much know where all those ingots are, considering the last time I played FO3 (and by proxy The Pitt) was at least one and a half years back. Memory, I love you! :wub:

-More and better weapon animations as well.

-More ammo types; all reloadable with upgraded match-type stats.

-More game stability...I mean I am so frustrated with adding mods I really want to play with, and having to scrub and re-scrub them just to get New Vegas running for more than 30 minutes with the mods I want to run. Compare that to Skyrim, where no matter how dirty the mods are, the game will still run.

But, it's a tribute to how good the game is that I'm willing to put myself through the ringer to play it the way I want to. Sooooo...make FO4 as good as NV (preferably better), but make it at least as stable as Skyrim.

Bit disappointed that its Bethesda whose doing FO4, i wasn't a fan of how they did FO3, hopefully it won't be too much of a static "TES with guns & just 1 ending" as that game was, id be happy if they just didn't f**k with the lore again like FO3 having the Enclave still being incredibly strong & the B.O.S being paragons of justice who defend regular wastelanders :rolleyes:

God, yes! The Pitt has better atmosphere than most New Vegas DLC. The sun barely visible, nothing but factory fumes to breathe, signs of disease in every face, etc. It's bloody amazing.

The real problem is that it's so short. There should be more missions both as a slave and then as a raider.

There should be a mechanic where you could take your time to complete quests in order to get better results but, the longer you're in the Pitt, the sicker you get. Eventually, take long enough, and you become indistinguishable from the natives of the Pitt.

The raider portion should have had the bosses ordering you to do morally repugnant things; first, it would be just a choice between letting a raider beat a slave to death or interfere and, eventually, you're expected to do some raiding yourself; and it would become a question of just how far would you be willing to go prove yourself to Ashur and find the cure

I just finished Old World Blues in New Vegas and I was pretty glad that I had brought my .50 cal anti-materiel rifle to the Big Empty.

Those enemies were pretty tough.
