Omgeez, I used to play that game when i was like 6! It was what got me into FPS, never could recall the name though, thank you sir.

I know, I saw it, that's why I mentioned that the sight picture for the pistol wasn't like the grenade launcher. Now that in and of itself doesn't mean anything. There is precedent for games to have proper iron sights for one weapon and then have them off for others, especially with a divide between pistols and rifles. But I hope this isn't the case and that pistols DO have proper iron sight pictures- when you're actually using them.

I know, it always bothers me when people say "this gun was taken from COD" because that's the first place they saw it. I used to like the Magpul Masada (before it was called the ACR). Now, it kinda bothers me a bit. It's a cool gun but COD kiddies raving about it all day is a turn off.


I agree. This is an enclave eyebot, sure, but I doubt the enclave is running it anymore For all we know one of the local radio stations could have found a bunker full of them and re-purposed them as mobile broadcast relays, spreading the love of good tunes across the wasteland. And then the cheeky courier takes potshots at it. Ungrateful sot.

Anyway, I hope this means there is some vestige of the enclave in the game. I don't want to see them as a major faction, but I DO want to find evidence of them having existed. (mostly in the form of their power armor)

Some other things I noticed: Laser rifle skin is similar to fallout 3, but slightly different, and looks like it has some mods on it. Plasma rifle is similar too, but seems again to be modified. However, we've been told from previews that the "plasma caster" of yore is back too. Now, the old plasma rifle wasn't a "plasma caster" by name, but considering that it was an industrial tool, plasma caster is a better description. So unless we're being lied to, both kinds of plasma rifle are in the game.

Additionally, I noticed a plasma pistol with a new skin. Blocky, almost resembling the Glock 86 PP but not exactly the same. So what am I getting at? I saw people being dismayed that the Laser rifle skin was the same. I'm betting that isn't the only Laser rifle. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw the old Laser rifle from 1/2 return as well!

Actually, I think it'd be pretty cool if the little droid was a symbol/reference to fallout 3 and the enclave, just as a little reference.

Oh, well in that case, welcome to the forums sir. I would give you a fishy stick but we seem to be out of stock.

You...
You forgot DOOM?

I... I can't...
I'm so sorry for you. I mean, I know you were six, but... to me DOOM is unforgettable.

At any rate I'm happy I could reunite you with an old childhood friend.

Was it the laser pistol or the laser rifle? In Fallout 3 they both looked kind of squarish. He is using 2 handed, though so yeah, you're probably right.

What should we call the rattlesnake dogs?

Rogs?

Snogs, or Dakes. Actually I like Drakes

Hm.. that Caesar's legion outfit for the courier and the Caesar's legion camp.... almost make me want to join them the first run-through. Well, almost.
I mean, the Ninja's too.... they ARE pretty cool.

Erm..

It was. Didn't you see the bumper sticker that said "My child is an honor student at Roosevelt Academy"? That was a little reference too. I think my favorite part of the whole thing was the scoped laser rifle. I'm definitely going to try to get one of those early on in the game. The game's looking great right now. I have no idea what people were worrying about because of Alpha Protocol.

I didn't forget it, just the name

It was definitely a pistol, but as a point of precision, the Plasma weapons were more cylindrical in Fallout 3, with further cylindrical protrusions, (coils, perhaps) extending off of them. You can see this design in the trailer where the courier is battling a TV bot.


AAAaaand...
I found a little tidbit that makes the eyebot trailer quite interesting.
I propose to you that this little eybot traveled all the way from the capital wasteland to the West Coast.

Why? look at the bumper sticker on it. "My Child is an Honor Student at Roosevelt Academy"

If you remember from Fallout 3, the Roosevelt Academy was a super mutant infested school with a robotic dean that scolded you for being out in the halls. So in order for it to have that sticker, either the sticker was put on in the east and the bot traveled west, or the sticker was brought by someone Aaaall the way from the east coast and then affixed to the eyebot by someone in the west.

To me it seems more likely that the bot single-mindedly flew to the west coast. I mean look how driven it is. Flying along the road merrily, not even letting anti materiel shots faze him.

The current theory bouncing around in my head is that the bot is a "good fight ambassador bot" sent by Three Dog to spread Galaxy News Radio's message to the West coast.

Oh man that looks So awesome!!

If that doesn't get your blood pumping, your already dead. :hubbahubba:

I can't wait! :fallout:

Man that C4 is delicious, can't wait to stroll out of New Vegas while the entire city explodes behind me, and remember cool guys don't look back. B)

Just noticed, railroad track and crossing in the background of the vats clip between :51 and :53.
Yeah, I know I'm scrapin' the bottom there.

I think that thread died along time ago...

At the end it looks like the courier detonated a nuke in the city...

Will we get another chance to megaton a place?

Powder gangers btw mikhailian look em up in wiki

I'm hoping that was just a cool little thing for the trailer and it won't show up in the game (though I doubt it).

Hopefully they'll have a good reason story-wise as to why we'd want to nuke New Vegas.

Oh, I know about them already. Still waiting to see what kind of role they actually winde up with.

Nah I don't think that was a nuke, probably just blew up a building or something. Maybe rival mob factions like new reno with a mission to blow up their another factions casino? That's my guess.

Yeah. That's definitely from the east coast all right, cute reference.

Well, I wonder what that Mushroom-tree place was, some sort of facility? And it had the return of the mantis, delightful!

At :59-1:01 fireworks grenade?
