Things you want to see in Fallout: New Vegas

I just want Fallout to die and be left in peace. It never needed a third game, and I hate Bethesda even more for what they did to it.
A crazy new enemy type with a ridiculous name like "FUCKER" that makes deathclaws look like harmless, newborn puppies. ("Oh shit! It's a fucker! RUN!"
Oh yeah, and more varied environments. Lets look at the makeup of the Fallout3 world, shall we?
25%Capital
75%Wasteland
For New Vegas, they should have more then just "City" and "Dirt". Like, say, maybe 5 or 6 distinct, smaller, areas. It doesn't matter how big the world is if there's nothing interesting in it.
And while I'm at it, I'd also like to see the monstrous, 4 tusked, 2 headed Radelephant. Not to mention the Radtiger, straight from Siegfried and Roy.

Yeah? And what exactly did they do to it?SenisterDenister said:
EDIT: Goddamnit, double post. Sorry.
Yes really. Having Obsidian work on it is a step up from the previous development team but its still under complete Bethesda control, hence the information lock from the communities and an absolute lack of community interaction from the development staff like in most Obsidian games. They're a good company, you know, one of the ones that actually listen to their fanbase instead of slop shit into the game and telling their buyers that everything they wanted and would ever need is already in it, minus the downloadable content, of course.zombiejoe said:
Bethesda only did what they did to make money, not to make a game for the Fallout fans to enjoy. They made it for the lowest common denominator and by that I mean you and anyone else that liked that shallow hackneyed tripe of a story and shitty gameplay and bastardized SPECIAL system.
Fuck you people for ruining Fallout, Command and Conquer, and any other franchise of old that had an unneeded sequel. You're all as much to blame as the companies because you don't know any better and fork out your money like you don't have a goddamn brain.
I understand what your saying, but just in my opinion the gameplay and missions where fun. Sure the story wasn't great, nor was the fighting, but I thought it was a good game. And I have played a little bit of the original games, and they where ok as well.SenisterDenister said:
You people forget what INTERPLAY did to itSenisterDenister said:
Fallout Tactics?
Fallout Brotherhood of Steel?
Bethesda brought it back to not completely sucking
You're forgetting one thing, skippy: Interplay didn't make any of those. Interplay was the publisher that owned the franchise and then let developers make games. Black Isle made the first two, not the others.PopeJewish said:
That said, a lot of developers from Black Isle work for Obsidian. I've got more faith in New Vegas than I did in Fallout 3.
I am a long-time Fallout fan, the first and second are still on my hard drive. Including a save file I made fifteen years ago.SenisterDenister said:
I disagree with pretty much everything you've just said here, but I'm not completely following you.
Which part was for the lowest common denominator, which parts were shoveled in, which parts were just for money?
My experience with this title differed from yours, entirely.
I won't take issue with you telling me i don't have a brain for buying the game, so long as you not include the words "you're stupid" in your response <3
True but irrelevant. I'm merely pointing out that the vitriol aimed at Bethesda for "ruining" the fallout series is unwarranted when it was ruined by Interplay WELL before Bethesda ended up with the license.SenisterDenister said:
Also, don't call me skippy
Wouldn't it be RadSiegfried and RadRoy?Frozen Donkey Wheel2 said:
On a serious note though, how about something post-apocalyptic in a post-apocalyptic game? I mean in Fallout three you just needed to get a chinese assault rifle and you were set for the game. But if you had to work for the guns&ammo then you'd be holding onto that stuff like it was your life, which it would be if it wasn't for the stupid health system. All I can say is thank god for hardcore mode.
Now this, I have to agree with. Bethesda's games have a bad habit of shitting themselves and dying at inopportune moments. Thank god for PC ports and patches.Aylaine said:If I'm going to spend 60 dollars on a game, it should work as a finished product, not a beta. Fallout 3 basically was a beta when it came out, with so many issues it was mind boggling. Now, if that same engine is being used for New Vegas, they would do well to fix it. Many Fallout 3 players know exactly what I'm talking about. They won't accomplish much if their games don't work right or crash every 5 minutes.infinity_turtles said:As a fan of games that actually work, I think you're making a mistake. Obsidian's strong point has always been dialogue, and their two biggest weak points are 1)Trying to do too much and 2) Coding.Aylaine said:As a fan of games that actually work, I'm still going to ask.infinity_turtles said:
Full frontal nudity, less crashing and lag, but since it's by Obsidian, a developper of which I have yet to play a finished game with no bugs, I just don't know.
You're a man after my own heart.Pandalisk said:
THERE'S what I'd like to see in Fallout 3! KILLABLE CHILDREN.
(If this sounds vicious and immoral, that's because it IS vicious and immoral. It is also awesome.)
I'd prefer to have the same old Fallout story telling and dark humor that Bethesda failed at.
I want killable children. And while that sounds awful, you've never had to go through Little Lamplight.
Also a game that I don't need to download and install 3 user-made patches for so it won't crash would be nice. And I'd like Obsidian to avoid their usual fare of putting out games with massive amounts of bugs and very crappy endings (NWN 2 and Kotor 2. Haven't played Alpha Protocol so can't comment on that).
