Might have meant consoles.

Got the game today. Now maybe it's my imagination, but I swear every so often I hear a faint chime that sounds like the windows 7 login noise :raise:

And I'm playing on the 360

You know that they still sell retail games on CDs you know? -_-

[boomer]

Great.. I can't play new vegas. My steam account was disabled and I have no idea why.

[QUOTE=EpicWolf;28261345]Do you have FNV on Steam or...?[/QUOTE]

Of course I have it on Steam.

They must be activated on Steam AFAIK.

No dice on that front. My UKCE #3352 had to be activated on steam.

And thank god for that, so much more convenient.

well fuck.

Also loving New Vegas so far. Met the legion for the first time, they're pretty damn scary!

Legion has somewhat of a sick idea that they're doing the morally right thing is what's creepy.

That's because they're all tribals who've been forced into the legion military/natives who've served their duty as slaves whilst children.

Now the LEADER? [sp]He is a magnificent bastard who could bring long-term peace to a large part of the wastes... if you don't mind a century or two of suffering[/sp]

Caesar's master plan makes some sense, even if the Legion's actions are reprehensible and his immediate subordinates don't get it. The NCR is trying hard to recreate the relative safety and stability of the old world by trying to emulate the old United States. We all know how that story ended and so does Caesar: he aims to assimilate the NCR and thus derail its inevitable march towards the same decline and fall the old US suffered in the end. In other words, make a new system for the human race to live by which hasn't been proven to end in a nuclear holocaust (and which could be better suited to a post-apocalyptic world).

[backspace78]

Someone please help me.

[tommo400]

All I know is after walking into a town and seeing people getting frickin crucified, when the guy told me to spread the word of Caeser, I wasn't going to refuse.

[Fables]

I went into a house set up 3 Frag mines, shot the leader, ran inside... All the Legion followed...

After that I left Nipton with a nice new fur hat.

[boomer]

Is there anyway to play without steam?

You aren't seriously comparing the fall of the Roman Empire to a nuclear apocalypse.

I just think the end of one civilisation is somewhere well away on the scale from the end of all civilisations. The key to either faction, whoever wins, not fucking it up for the rest of the planet is in accepting that everything has its day. Letting go instead of deciding to destroy everything around them to spite everyone else.

I'm a tad reluctant to get the Life Giver perk. Is the extra hit points going to be a kick up in fucking awesomeness or will it be next to unnoticable?

He's right about the scarcity of useful items, even more so on hardcore. Never thought I'd be so frustrated to check inside a metal box only to find conductors and sensor modules or so compelled to collect tin cans and junk food.

Didn't know you could [sp]join Elijah[/sp] as an ending.

[QUOTE=Mericet;28271014]You aren't seriously comparing the fall of the Roman Empire to a nuclear apocalypse.[/QUOTE]Noting that only one ended in nukes doesn't really hold much weight, since only one civilization out of the two had the technological [i]capability[/i] to do so.

Just imagine what it would have been like if, say, Nero or Caligula had the same level of tech as pre-doomsday Fallout civilizations. My [i]god[/i], there would have been no fiddle fast enough.

Pretty much unnoticable, actually.

I admit I'm wrong there, then. But Caesar does discourage the use of advanced technology and weaponry in order to achieve dominance, emphasising the strength of people over technology. It's less a question of capability, more of the willingness to use such weapons. It helps that Caesar wants to subjugate the NCR, not exterminate it.

And from what I've seen, the Legion's Caesar is certainly no Nero. He's mentally stable ([sp]even while suffering from a brain tumour[/sp]), educated by the Followers of the Apocalypse and has a powerful identity as the Legion's supreme ruler.

Caligula would let us have Mass Orgies and horse fucking and horses control the government and we fuck horses
