WTF are you talking about you can not kill a behemoth with it easily. get out of your dream world and come back to reality.

I am sorry but this is reality so you better off get out of YOUR dream world.

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Hunting_rifle_%28Fallout_3%29

You dont know what your talking about

I emphasize highly when it says "RELATIVELY WEAK ENEMIES"

Play the game then com back to me....OK.

No, I have about 1000 hour in FO3 with all my characters.

You seems to forgot 2x Heatshot and Better Critical.

(25+37.5)*2=125, to drop Beheboth's 2k hp isn't as hard as you thought.

i dont think you get that the gun svcks there are plenty better than it. Plus just shoot one mini nuke or two at it and bam your done.

My point is you don't. Hunting Rifle is capable of triumph over everything in FO3 before Broken Steel.

The hunting rifle is far better in FNV than in F3.

Doesn't make it a ROFL weapon in FO3.

No your right it makes it a LOL weapon.

i go to black mountain early to get my first hunting rifle, all you need to do is get on the rocks, hide, and use a 10 mm, maybe a few grenades as long as you have enough ammo you can kill em, you might need a few stimpaks, new vegas isn't a more difficult game combat wise, NOT EVEN CLOSE, early on in the game if you go to certain areas its pretty dangerous, like the quarry, but those areas only make up like 1/10 of 1 % of the map, the other 99.9 % of the map is empty.

i agree tojka.

And incase someone doesn't read the page that was quoted from, i was referring to the amount and equipment of the enemies.

There are some areas with lots of dangerous enemies, such as the gorge full Cazadors east of Jacobstown, and the well-known Deathclaw infested areas, some caves too, but dangerous human, or humanoid, enemies with high quality armor and weapons are pretty much restricted to the dam battle. Legion version :hehe:

It was just an example. I could literally run into the DC mutants on low levels without much cover or tactics and annihilate their healthbars to the zero point. How's New Vegas *not even close* is simply beyond me(well, you did indeed even described the more tactical approach of NV, so thanks for proving my point, I guess ).

The only problem I see is the lack of random encounters. I also won't lie, I really wouldn't mind more mobs to kill or fill some blank spaces.
Still, I was not dissapointed, New Vegas fills my checkbox of being a true Fallout game(not saying that MY vision of Fallout is the correct one. The one I am talking about is set by the original creators and thus the one Beth should be looking after).

EDIT: And no I am not talking about the 2D graphics.

most bethesda fans expect lots of good combat, plenty of large dungeons and buildings to explore and fight in as well as a nice fantasy world with tons of stuff to do, an obsidian fan is prob more into a game thats "believable" or "plausible" etc with minimal exploring, definately no big dungeons to explore or fight in, and also no random events or encounters, they probably don't mind the same enemies in the same locations even if they go by the same spot 100 times, they prob don't want much combat on the map or much action cause that wouldn't be "believable" ,they probably prefer that 99.9% of the map is pretty boring with nothing to do. so its just two totally different styles of gamemaking. i don't like "believable" or "plausible" games, thats too much like the sims. i kinda prefer plenty of fantasy in my games.

i agree, the game gets boring rather quickly :snoring:

Soooo great of you to revive a thread, just to say this!

Good for you, guy!

Edit: whatever West. You're clearly not worth my time.

There are many Bethesda fans on this forum that love Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3. Many have even taken it upon themselves to play the originals and guess what they like them as well. You seem to be the only person that thinks the way you do, "that all but Fallout 3 svck." Pretty much every post of yours is how every fallout svcks but for 3, that even the originals svck because they are old and that all that have problems with fallout 3 just hate Bethesda, and yet you seem to hate anything not made by Bethesda. :facepalm:

Fallout 3 is not TES and Fallout 4 should not be a clone of Fallout 3.

You know what? West keeps trying to speak from the perspective of "Bethesda Fans", but I only hear one. lonely. whiney. kid. who can't argue, so he tries to pass off his opinion as fact. Seriously kid, Freshman year, take a speech class. It'll do you a lot of good.

Maybe do debate as well, can't do much good there either.

That was a pretty darn good burn.

Must be hard to play such a boring trite of a game. Why do you do it?

Can you for once, just once, answer when people tries to talk to you?
You just rambling false facts, saying that "everyone think this game is boring", start to rant about how much NV svcks and then leave or changing subject?
Its like a politician would say in a debate " actually the most men in this country thinks that the goverment svcks. 99% of all the goverment supporters love heavy taxes, bad social security and a corrupted police....anyway....i need to go, see ya!"

I am neither a 'Bethesda Fan' nor an 'Obsidian Fan', I am a 'Fallout Fan'. I enjoy exploration, I enjoy beautiful Songbook America classics like on RNV and GNR, I enjoy combat where it is plausible, I also enjoy well done Voice Overs and dialogue. Don't you dare say just because some of us enjoy New Vegas far more than Fallout 3, it makes us a lesser person, saying we prefer bleak worlds. No, New Vegas is not bleak, it's just as lively as Fallout 3, your problem is you are intentionally refering to one particular space of the game to make us Fallout New Vegas fans. I am sick of people like you criticizing people who enjoy Fallout:New Vegas, and I'm sick of the old fans who criticize Fallout 3, people have a right to their opinion, but you saying those of us enjoy New Vegas because it's monotonous is just rude, childish, and uncalled for. You never defend your arguments, yet you keep dishing out this false sense of superiority over Fallout:New Vegas fans.

I'm sorry if that's rude to you and I mean no disrespect, but I'm tired of you camping all of us Fallout:New Vegas fans into this camp of 'lesser fans'. :/

Edit: Spelling errors

This was resurrected with a pretty pointless post and followed by a number of rude ones. A perfect reason to close it and look to see whether anyone needs a PM from me.
