does the fast metabolism perk make a comeback?

Yeah I saw it during the live stream when they were going through the list.

No Tommy Gun, I got the guide, at least not that I can see...

Oh my god, my ears.

What the hell was that ear [censored] all about?

Does the map seem small to anyone else?

*sighs in relief* Geez, I was worried it would just be live-streamed, and that I'd miss the entire thing.

Glad it seems like I can can watch the whole thing. Still, have a lot to watch to see if they answered my question or not...

Where were they accepting the questions that the forum members won free copies at?

Unless you asked a very general question probably not.

That Gun is a perfect name for the .223. The reload animation for it looks great too. I hope it's a beast like it was the first 2 games though.

I would of asked what Tess's phone number was.

Kind of to me, but I think that may be the lack of roads everywhere and how large the roads are... I dunno =/
Also I just got back and watched the video... and I must say I feel like slapping Vault Boy senseless right now

Edit: maybe the map is zoomed in?

The map looks a tad smaller but with the amount of depth they added, it should all work out. Yeah how did Vaultboys question get through? LOL... oh well more power to him.

It was way, way zoomed in most times Tess switched to it.

I can't say I wouldn't have.

The map wasn't noticeably bigger or smaller from what I saw. They were true to their word as far as I can see.

» Wed Sep 01, 2010 8:45 pm

I recall that in an interview the map was slightly larger than fallout 3's. Can't remember the source.

» Wed Sep 01, 2010 9:47 pm

The map, now that I actually paid attention, seems to be completely zoomed in on one small section of the sandbox (which probably is the same size as fallout 3) and it showed several locations (I would guess around 15 if they all showed) so the game seems to have many more locations all about 5-10 minutes apart from each other .-.

By volume though or the actual square? That's the question.

» Thu Sep 02, 2010 12:49 am

If you go by the 'leaked' guide map, it appears that it's similar if not bigger. It's difficult to judge because the borders of the map are not set to a square but to natural boundaries.

Content wise there appears to be just as many if not more noted locations in NV as there are in FO3 with New Vegas itself being a fairly detailed-multi-zone city.

Anybody else notice the Super Stimpack at 15:40? What's up with those?

In the earlier Fallout titles before Fallout 3, Super Stimpaks were more powerful versions of the regular Stimpak. However, they had a downside because if you took a bunch of them at once you would end up later suffering a major hit point loss that was a percentage of the total hitpoints you could have gained. As a result, some people figured out you could actually use them to assasinate NPCs. :whistling:

I don't know if New Vegas treats them the same, though.

You have the guide? Where did you get it and was it out or do you have to ask a clerk really nicely to get it?

I'm hoping we can still do that. :ninja:

If you took one of them you'd suffer later.
