Wait...Alpha Deathclaws?

(also nice to hear that we can break down bullets and re-craft them in specialty rounds)

Hmm, I may order the CE guide via Amazon using the slow super-saver shipping.

I don't want to have TMI when I start the game, but it looks like very useful info that I can explore upon on a second play though...

He also hinted at mother deathclaws...

Good info.

Hmm, the gouls face looks different than in Fallout 3. Nice.

Meh, it was okay.
Not the information I'm holding my breath for but at least it's something.
So, a [censored] load of craftable items huh?
Still wish we had a skill called Crafting.

Ok that Gecko game play picture looks insanely awesome. Living off the land with your spear, fighting geckos. Agghhh :fallout:

I think it is the same jack-o-lantern face as http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2434/3629153996_f1af196c8f.jpg.

Haven't seen that one before. At least don't remember seeing.

Just a typical glowing one (in both cases) as far as I can tell.

My memory failed me then. I remembered the glowingones faces to be identical to normal ghouls.

No matter then.

Yes and from the sound of it Momma Deathclaws as well. :tops:

Should be out next week, or perhaps the week after.

Great, we get to play as a spear chucking tribal.....again.

» Thu Sep 30, 2010 8:06 am

Great! We have the option to play as a spear chucking tribal again!

*fixed.

(We're actually a mailman)

(We're actually a mailman)

I wonder if we can fill manila envelopes with Legion coins and hurl them at enemies while spouting cheesy one-liners like "Special Delivery!"? I'm sure the answer is yes. Would this be the ultimate craft-able weapon? Yes again.

I wonder if that's the throwing spear we've heard about or another variety.

I am tempted to do a melee, survival character right off the bat just to get a feel for the new stuff they added.

the game guide looks really cool, but I have apprehensions. I think playing with a game guide right off the bat kinda ruins a game like fallout. I want all the info, but none of the spoilers.

Thanks for the info.

Looking forward to getting the hard cover!

Is that a Great Khans jacket I see? Looks spiffy.

» Thu Sep 30, 2010 10:38 am

Alpha deathclaws?

And theres "Fiend" again.

*starts building impossible expectations*

» Thu Sep 30, 2010 12:05 pm

Well you have the option to do so.....

But I think being a spear warrior is cool in New Vegas because I won't have to "miss" 20 times before one Gecko dies :banghead:

Feels more like a survival thing. But on my first and second play through it guns all the way baby :rock:
