I think one of the best things New Vegas did was add more members to groups, IN fallout 3 i got irritated how only like 8-10 members where part of the Brotherhood outcast and most towns had no more than 10 people.... New Vegas adds far more realism to the game in terms of atmosphere and people to people interaction...Awesome work obsidian and Bethesda (with all the whining threads i thought this would help), though honestly great work either way, more people,rep system,hardcoe mode, and you finally get the real sense of fear in the wasteland when you Venture out (thinks of cazadores and dog with snake tongue which comes in packs :wacko: )
