Stuff I Found out at PAX

Post » Sat Sep 04, 2010 3:10 pm

Since this is about info on New Vegas and I dont want to spam up the main page with a new topic wasting space, I want to point out an innacuracy. I was looking at the Playstation Magazine at Wal-Mart and it incorrectly said Bethesda is the Dev AND publisher, and Beth is only the publisher in this game. Like I said, a small detail, but an important one in my opinion.

Edit-Correction error.

You mean publisher.
Obsidian = developer
Bethesda = publisher

FFF. I had a brain fart moment. I need to quit spacing out on my posts. Thanks for pointing it out. they said Bethesda is both and it is only hte PUBLISHER. Not Developer. Kudos for correcting me :cookie:

I feel super sad that I could not go to PAX. I mean Duke "Balls of Steel" Nukem was there... Oh, and Fallout: New Vegas.

Thanks for all the info.

Hope to see a guns list from you. Thanks again, by the way.
It would be nice if you could check out the iron sights, using the true settings.

Also, for the discussion: Alien Power Cells? Meh. I could care less. That gun was so unbelieveable as a practical weapon. Fun Easter egg though. As long as there is none of that MZ crap. I hated it, and we don't need more of that.

I'm glad to hear that there's going to be some alien weaponry. Hopefully we'll get an alien rifle this time. I'll bet no one would really complain if alien weapons were less powerful. If they end up being a little more commonplace, it will be most excellent to be able to mod an alien weapon.

You said the super mutants had a different tint. Did they also have a different face model?

I don't believe so.

We've seen screenshots of Marcus' model but every other screenshots of supermutants have been of the 87 variation which Obsidian claimed were placeholder.

No, http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=4143 is one.

Ah! There we are. Thank you!

I swore I saw that months ago but must have written it off as a daydream/insanity after not being able to find it again.

That's exactly what I meant. I mean, I guess they still could have tweaked it a little bit more, but I doubt it.
My hope is that at least a couple of super mutants have hair, but it's starting to seem far-fetched considering we've yet to see a screenshot of one.. a pity.

True iron sights is the option to toggle the reticule while using the ADS
most vids don't have it turned on

No there will be an option in the game for tru iron sights, iron sights with crosshair, and just a zoom with crosshair.

True iron sights: aiming down sights
iron sights: Aiming down sights + the little blip to show you wear to aim
zoom: FO3's aiming where you just zoom in and use the little blip.

there might also be an option to just zoom without the little blip(crosshair).

Nooooo they need to look good man!
Big green strong manly men...
Hmm, maybe both then?
I did like their comedic appearance in the first game but I loved how ripped they were in fallout 3.

Do you have a Super-Mutant fetish?

Also, I would love to see some of them with hair. Every single mutant in FO1 and FO2 had hair, why wouldn't the ones in NV?

The videos I've seen look "true" to me. Maybe because I watched them on my phone and the screen is small and I can't see the reticule?
