Please, please, please have done something with the engine. FO3 runs better than Oblivion, but it's even more of an unstable piece of shit. [editline]11:30PM[/editline] Hey, I recognize that music in the background, it's on some of the loading screens in Bad Company 2. What gives?

Just got the Ironsights mod. Anyone know how to change the weapon info key binding? It's rather annoying not being able to open my inventory because I keep looking at my weapon's info.

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;25184868]My big hope is that they re-implemented self shadowing for character models, and hopefully we'll actually see some dynamic lighting on props and buildings.[/QUOTE] If they do, you better hope that it's better than Oblvion's self shadowing. Christ, what an unholy piece of shit that was.

[QUOTE=Generic_Monk;25180416]Pc Gamer says the voice acting in NV is much better and the writing much sharper than in FO3, which is nice. [editline]09:33PM[/editline] Try typing enableplayercontrols into the console.[/QUOTE] I did that 11 hours earlier. My problem now is that I crash when I kill a Enclave Enforcer. I guess it's only part of EVE.

[QUOTE=Generic_Monk;25180416]Pc Gamer says the voice acting in NV is much better and the writing much sharper than in FO3, which is nice. [/QUOTE] And Fallout 3 had some pretty decent voice acting (minus the multiple identical voices for generic females/males)

And them telling you to not do this or watch where you are going. *slightly looks at a locked door or item that can be stolen* That is not yours/tamper with that and we will have a problem. But I was just turning around. *looks at it for a millisecond* Yes that's locked, and yes, I see you eying it. SHUT THE FUCK UP. They are annoying. You think New Vegas will be like that?

God, I hope NV is more stable on 7 the FO3 was.

Wait, how stable is FO3 on 7? I have Windows 7 right now? And I am sure it will, unless Bethesda decides to screw the company over by making it mostly for consoles.

[QUOTE=Omolong;25192278]God, I hope NV is more stable on 7 the FO3 was.[/QUOTE] I've been playing Fallout 3 on Windows 7 for quite a while now and haven't crashed once. Well, maybe only a few times because some mods fucked up.

[QUOTE=ForcedDj;25192299]Wait, how stable is FO3 on 7?

Yes! New Vegas has Jingle Jangle and Ain't That A Kick In The Head on one of the radio stations!

I hate when I get mods, and it makes a perfect Immersion for me ( I do what the character would do at the moment), and then the game crashes. [editline]10:07AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Omolong;25195982]Yes! New Vegas has Jingle Jangle and Ain't That A Kick In The Head on one of the radio stations![/QUOTE] Mafia II Bitter-Sweet memoirs... an another note, I reserved my copy of NV at gameStop, What Pack do I get?

I would love them to add proper lighting and shadows to the environment. Far Cry 2 did it fine, but that's a whole different engine. Fallout 3 still looks beautiful without it though. Also hope they improve the character 'facial systems' for when they are talking. I'm still playing Vanilla, only mods I'm using are a couple of UI ones and a new Tenpenny suite.

[QUOTE=Lucinice;25198400]It sucks a glitch prevented him from spawning during my evel playthrough, I was going to murder him.[/QUOTE] Evil playthrough? Killing him is a service to the fucking world.

Well, I forgot that when you have master trader, and invest in the caravans, that the caravans get over a thousand caps. I met Crazy infront of rivet City, and he had like, 1400 caps. Also, when you pre-order from GameStop, What do you get in the bonus pack?

Should I feel bad for killing Tenpenny, stripping him, throwing his body off the balcony then eating it after I leave? Or can I not eat it; leave that part out. I did get into the armory in The Citadel and steal all the weapons.

[QUOTE=Generic_Monk;25195630] Whoah, stop there. Let's tell a story to pass the time... ANNOYING PIECE OF SHIT CHARACTER.[/QUOTE] Okay, here is a short one, idiot asks for escort to Big Town. The idiot pisses off the Lone Wanderer too much. The Lone Wanderer nukes the idiot and burns the body. Okay, maybe I was being too lenient on the idiot, nuke, then burn, then revive and send 1000 deathclaws, then another experimental MIRV attack. You think we will see someone annoying like that idiot in New Vegas?

[QUOTE=Generic_Monk;25186187]If they do, you better hope that it's better than Oblvion's self shadowing. Christ, what an unholy piece of shit that was.[/QUOTE] It was a bit buggy but I think they could improve it pretty easily. Also, you don't lose karma for killing sticky. i think his annoying factor has made him of a neutral standpoint.

[QUOTE=Ihasabucket;25164497]Well since ya asked here : [img]http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/6954/screenshot16k.png[/img] [b]I hadn't played Fallout 3 for a while though (I took this pic like last monthish).[/b][/QUOTE] Game over, man! Game over!!! But seriously, how would my karma be affected if I killed Kardashian at her party?

She's worth no karma either way. However, your reputation with the Las Vegas Police Department would immediately plummet to Villified regardless of whether or not you're hidden.

I can't watch any New Vegas vids, because I want to save the excitement for later.

[QUOTE=texanderson;25202238]nah your doing a service to the world of ghoul's(non feral)[/QUOTE] Roy Phillips is no better. even if you find a peaceful solution to that quest, he'll still end up killing everyone. even Herbert "Daring" Dashwood!

New Vegas Cannot come soon enough.

I just started playing Fallout 3. It's really fun. I'm currently fighting my way out of a robot rebellion. Stupid Moria.
