True

Not true

(But I wholly agree with your earlier post :tops:)

Does it really matter who started it? I missed the post where the FO3 fan started it, just read it now and it didn't really help either.

I was mainly backing up Paladin John's sentiment that this shouldn't be turned into another VS thread. Just let the guy make up his own mind without the same tired old arguments from both sides.

To the OP, I'm glad you enjoyed New Vegas mate and I think you will enjoy 3 as well. It is pretty similar in play style, with a few noticeable differences. If you enjoy the stories of those two games then I would also recommend the earlier games. The style of play in these isn't really to my tastes, but the story is still topnotch IMHO. :goodjob:

Both are great games, but the biggest difference is this. Fallout 3 is more geared towards people who will want to explore and have a "you are all alone" feel. The Capital Wasteland is as the name implies, a wasteland. There will also be more random encounters, and plenty of respawns in the outside world. With New Vegas, it's more of a faction driven game, with more emphasis on the factions than exploration. There is still plenty to explore, but the landscape is smaller and more condensed.

There are more subtle differences, but what I mentioned are the biggest that I find.

Every thread on this forum will turn into vs thread sooner or later. It's inevitable.

So, we are the one who started again???

Actually we can thank Beth for allowing Obsidian to make a Fallout game.

Awesome guns are worthless with out some "action"

If you want action so much you can always start massacring towns.

Yah but thats just stupid...

Wheres the action that should be encountered and not started.

And you think destroying the whole Super Mutant Community in DC isn't stupid?

What i meant by "action" was Micheal Bay action and Shyamalan plot twists, the originals are full of action, lots of fights, gore, fun fun, but it is presented in a logical way, it isnt just mindless "action"

well it is Fallout 3 of course the games will have something in common. u know what comes after 2 right 3, like the movie the second or 3rd part took the idea of the previous movie, in this case its a game. If you want to thank Bethesda for a fantastic game i recommend you play F03, unless you truly love NV for the story and boring fetch quest

:facepalm:. That is Action encountered without starting it. they are hostile.

Except they didnt continue them, it was the opposite side of the country and the copied the stories, not based a new one off of them.

He said it's one of the best games he ever played.

And the whole "having similarities to Fallout 1 and 2 because it's Fallout 3" is bull because it's absolutely nothing like Fallout 1 or Fallout 2. I've PLAYED the entire series. The only thing Fallout 3 has in common with Fallout 1 or 2 is the name and the names of the two primary factions.

He clearly hasnt played good games then. F3 is just as much important to the series like F2 is the series after F1. So just because it doenst have that stupid Node system it shouldnt be considered a series or just because it uses the same factions from older games it shouldnt be a series either(like FNV does with NCR and Legion...)

Epicness, have you played the originals?

No but are you going to bring up that i shoudnt talk about them since i havent played them because thats unimportant.

It is important, you are talking down on them and their mechanics when you have never experienced them, it is unfair of you to tell other people what is bad when you don't even know what you are talking about.

Actually i seen the game play and hate that node system and hate it. ive seen gameplay...

Indeed, another "expert" that has no idea of what he's talking about. XD You should actually you know get a history, before you start giving suggestions.

Walk around the map in Legion apparel if you want to encounter action. Just because the game doesn't have as much generic enemies (like the raiders in 3) it doesn't mean you can't shoot things.

Not to be a [censored] to you again, but you should play before you say.

i have completed Dead Money. woah its a long DLC. I have escaped vault with 37 gold bars "Let it go" oo i will let those gold bars go, at the nearest vendor! implants here i come.
I miss my companions tho a spatially Christina, and she mentioned something about 2nd courier anyone knows whats that all about, may be i missed something trough the story.
oo yea is anyone know when next DLC will be released for NV? so i can decide either start on fallout 3 or wait for next DLC

I know Boradam i would if i could. i dont have the type of computer to play this game...
