NV Tranquility Lane?

Post » Thu May 10, 2012 1:36 am

Would you have liked to have been able to do such a thing, where you could go back to Pre-War and see Mr. House in all his Glory, walking and talking without the use of a monitor, seeing the full Vegas, and maybe even his Liberty Prime, like he's pictured with?

If not why?
But if so why?

Me personally, I'd love too! He has easily become my favorite NPC across FO3 and NV (never played originals) But I just think it would have been awesome to walk the casino halls, with people in them, maybe interracting with House y'know?

I love Mr. House and all but I'm not sure I would like to see him as a normal person. I don't know why, it just doesn't seem fitting for him.

I'm not sure I would've liked to see that, part of my says yes but the other says no...

I would've loved to see the Boomers' flight simulator in Nellis though.

Why would it not be fitting? To see him normal and brilliant again?

N' oh me too, I find it so hard not to shoot Loyal, when you're idolized, and ask for a go, and he's like Nooo noo, not an outsider.... N' I'm like I just swam below a river, attached ballasta's to a plane, and blew it up, infront of the NCR, and you talk like I ain't dedicated to the cause?!!!

I don't know, I just can't really see it.

And I agree, I think they were planning on making a flight simulator when you were idolized as a side quest but had to cut it due to lack of developement time (they also had to cut an entire settlement called Underpass).

Not really, if this is a "Oh but not for it to be in the actual game, just for hypothetical fun!" Then I don't see the point, I can just use my imagination to picture House and Vegas during pre-war.

If it is meant as a "Would I actually like to see something like this in the game" or "Would I have liked it if it was implemented into the game from the start" then no.
Game-design-wise they'd have to recreate a small part of Vegas as pre-war, before all the destruction to the buildings and stuff and it would have taken time away from other things, hell, they had to cut content as it were, this would stretch it even thinner.
And I don't see the point to it, the pre-war House doesn't really matter as it's 204 years later.


So no on all accounts, I don't want or need to 'Tranquility Lane' Mr House.
Though a few more references on how he used to be like before the war could have been good.
But I think that what we have is enough.


Cause I really don't see the point to it.
It's as unnecessary as the "What about playing during the pre-war!" suggestions.
The pre-war is two centuries past us, it's ancient history and should stay that way, relics of the past.
What matters is the current events and the future, neither of which would be helpful by 'Tranquility Laning' Mr House.

So I just don't see the point to it apart from kicks and giggles.

Look at Old World Blues, the houses for the scientist, is just a wrecked version of tranquility lane with a fountain instead of a park, they could'a done that for the NV thing, who knows, could'a even had camp golf, pre-war, which was no doubt his actual home, wouldn't of been that hard given the right time....

I just don't see the point to it, doesn't really give anything worthwhile, House is done, Vegas could have used more work in 2284 and Legion could use a lot more work.
But House and NV pre-war? Doesn't seem like it would have been a good idea at all, would only take away work from other aspects, aspects that got shafted even before a TL.

I actually would have liked that. One of the reasons it's difficult for me to side with House is because he's not human enough for me. I wouldn't really appreciate seeing Vegas pre-war, but any glimpse of House as an acutal person and not some abomination would have been quite satisfying and may have changed how I played the game.

I'd love to be able to do this.

You wouldn't get to meet house though. He'd be hiding away in solitude like Howard Hughes.

I would have liked it if we could have used the Brotherhood training sim in Hidden Valley or the Boomer's flight sim.

Yeah exactly, would'a been awesome.
Also did anyone actually see the concept are for New Vegas?
I get the feeling if OBSID had as much time on NV as Beth did for Skyrim, it would'a been huge!!

I'm not too sure there, though he is based of HH I think he'd actually meet you? Show off his tech to the Mojave as we know he did, I mean, what 3 xbillionaire is it? at 30 years old doesn't wanna show off his Mega giant robot?

And why would Robert House just let you in, open arms? "Wait, wait. Hear me out. I'm a Courier from the future an- *slam*"

Well like I said he may just have a feeling to brag?
So he'd probably show you, or y'know you could lock pick your way in and just talk to him....

If New Vegas was given another year to be made them I am sure we could have been able to use the BoS training sim. Maybe not the Boomers flight sim. Maybe a bombing mission or something like that.

Maybe if given the extra year... When you raise the bomber and MR. New Vegas says there have been reports of something flying, you'd be able to see it, like you could with FO3 vertibirds....

You know the difference between a suggestion and a hypothetical discussion right? This is hypothetical, its not that he's saying it should have been done, but rather would you like to see how Vegas was before it became a [censored]hole, it's not meant to add anything to the current state of events since it's not a suggestion. It's simply you, in House's time, seeing him and Vegas in their hayday - nothing more nothing less - so quit whining about something we all know isn't going to happen anyway.

I'd like to see House as a human and follow some of his days to see how he went around his business and if any shady deals went down. It'd be good to see Vegas in its glory as well since I'd assume it was so tiny pre-War and didn't have fugly barriers every 20 steps, neon lights and cash all round :biggrin:
Oh and it should be set in Sepia tone as well opposed to black and white, and I'd rather not interact with House but rather shadow him so not to affect the future and remind him of my time travelling self.

Still no, what's the point?

[edit]

And if hypothetical in a "everything could work!" universe then I'd want the game area to be 5x the size towards the Legion border, have 350 fully voiced Legion characters with tons of dialogue and a crapload of quests.
I'd also like a pack of Talking Deathclaws and a couple of S'Lanter as companions.
And also have Reservation fit into it so I can bombard every town and city with radiation bombs, and with each bombed city it's overhauled.

Hypothetical things seems kinda... Pointless.
So let me restate my opinion on a hypothetical TL with Mr House: I wouldn't care. Cause I'd be too busy with my hypothetical Legion quests and S'Lanter buddies to give a crap.

Pointless is pointless. :shrug:

(Let me explain in a less dike'ish way: Hypothetically anything and everything can work, so why would anyone object against a TL Vegas? Since we don't have to be realistic about the game development and nothing has to be cut then... What's the point? Why wouldn't I want a TL Vegas since it won't interfer with the rest of the game development? Seems like a pointless question is all. Hypothetically, I wouldn't care about a TL Vegas though, but I wouldn't object it as it'd give us more content. Then again, since I am a realist I consider hypothetical things to be rather pointless, I can indulge in it's discussions anyway if it intruiges me, what caught me up was the question of said hypothetical feature, which I still consider quite pointless. If it was stated differently then I'd be more fine with it but the current one just seems redundant to me.) ((Sorry if I come off too harsh, I'm having a fever and my mood ain't exactly the best so I might just be nitpicking to eleven.))

Then again, I am the Negative Nancy after all. :)
But never mind me, I'm just being really pessimistic now.
