I finally figured out the storyline for this game!

Post » Sun Jul 11, 2010 12:47 am

This game is about all the countless hours a man will spend in a wasteland frozen in space and time until his life restarts and reloads and how he enjoys to flail his arms randomly into the air like he just don't care. It is about breaking the fourth wall and causing disc drive errors with the associated console in real life. It is also about unkillable enemies, being God and floating into the ground or other objects, or watching other objects/npcs disappear into objects. The main character also likes to ridicule other NPCs in conversations that the player does not see, because random, harmless, and often quest related NPCs like to attack him randomly for no reason. It is also about transforming guns, these special "ultimate weapons", when a mod is attached, transform into a huge exclamation mark surrounded in a huge red square.

This game is truly about one man, reviving from a gunshot wound, who needs to overcome many glitches in his life.
And also, I made it to New Vegas for the first time since owning the game from launch, and I now get disc unreadable every time I attempt to go through the casino elevator. I will never buy another Fallout game again, they are obviously half assed. (Even all the textures are rehashed from F3)

I love The Elder Scrolls...Obviously Bethesda puts a lot more work into those than Fallout (yeah I know this was made by Obsidian, but even FO3 didn't compare to Oblivion)

aside from the the lack of bugs in oblivion compared to fa3+nv you also get way more options for character creation as well which is something i think is important in this type of game.does anyone else find that on fallout no matter what you change you still end up looking the same.plus you can barley see the changes your making to the face on that sh***y little screen.even just the little thing that you can make your own spells up and name them whatever you want.only a small thing but its the kind of touch that fa has nothing at all like

I don't think I have any of those problems... other than the occasional freeze. :whistling:

Aside for the race selection, the char generator was improved in Fallout 3 and New Vegas

(Wait for a new and unique Fallout Vs TES thread)

Hm? I have finally given up on this game. I just got a brand new Xbox and started playing, and was so excited to get so far. Then it got to the point where I got sick of always battling glitches more than actual hostile enemies. I will sell this game asap, biggest waste of money ever, more so than black ops.

I wouldn t bother arguing about a cookie cutter mid evil times rpg with some magic. Ohhhhh and there is a theif I bet. I played enough of those in the last 24 years. Not my style......

Fo is " believable fantasy " Cookie cutter rpgs with magic and dumb [censored] like that are just pure fantasy.

IMO there is not even an argument. The guys that made up fo win.


I d much rather stick with fo3 vs nv that bring TES in.

OP fo has some problems, but by the way you make it sound I think your pc is due for a tune up. The last patch fixed a lot of problems for me on a simple ps3, and I never had as may as you say on 360 or PS3.

Fo3 never had many problems at all IMO on 360.

I think your pc is getting long in the tooth there bud, or maybe you don t know what you are doing.

FNV frustrated the hell out of me initially because it wouldn't launch and I couldn't solve it for weeks. But once I've learned how to circumvent that one problem, I didn't have too much trouble. After the latest patch, I've had no CTDs, stuttering is relatively rare, and even though some creatures and people fall through the ground when killed (usually in VATS), it's not that great a problem.

The main issue I have with this game right now is certain creatures respawning upon save/load; since it's mainly Nightstalkers and Giant Radscorps, having them respawn out from under your feet is almost as bad as having that save corrupted.

(Speaking of which, I've NEVER had a single corruped save with this game).

I have to agree with this part, and admit that the FO3/NV character creation is the worst I've ever seen in any game that has one. Yep. you could spend hours pulling and twisting and mutating or running the random face generator... and once in game, you really can't tell your chars apart except for haircolor or style.
