[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;25403231]One of the traits you can pick up at the start. Select dialogue and random encounters are sometimes replaced by things that reference Fallout 1 & 2. There's also a few weapons you can and can't get with it. According to the guidebook leak guide; (Further on, he goes to say the gauss rifle is called the "YCS/186 Gauss Rifle")[/QUOTE] Interesting. I really like stuff like that. Part of Fallout's charm to me is it's sometime Monty Python-esque humor. I loved having the extra line of dialogue on Mothership Zeta for getting the Mysterious Stranger perk. Seems like a good compromise anyway.
Fallout 1 and 2 have the best story. Fallout 3 has the best side quests. Hopefully New Vegas can improve on the gameplay instead of being "Oblivion with guns: the expansion pack"
More like Oblivion with guns: Bloom edition
[QUOTE=Zezibesh;25401895]Just popping in to say this: just because the developer says something is canon doesn't mean it's a good change or people like it. And why isn't New Reno canon, exactly?[/QUOTE] All the crazy ass unbelievable things that happened there, mostly the porn studio but other things, too. Read the fallout bible for more info.
Shut up about canons holy fuck no one cares.

[QUOTE=TraderRager;25401048]Lets just get his out of the way. Fallout is ALMOST ALL canon. (Ignoring a few Random encounters) Fallout 2 is MOSTLY canon. (Minus almost all of New reno and Broken hills, and all the weird random encounters) SOME of Tactics is canon ALMOST NOTHING ABOUT BOS IS CANNON Almost all of Fallout 3 is canon (According to both bethesda and black isle. Suck it NMA.) Almost all of the non-"Wild Wasteland" stuff in new vegas will be canon. A majority of the things in it will be equivalent to Van Buren. So stop whining about how beth ruins everything just because you miss the old games. It gets you nowhere and it is annoying to the people who actually enjoy the new ones.[/QUOTE] How are the ORIGINAL TWO GAMES not completely canon? The entire universe is based around them. Thats like saying Star Wars IV is almost canon.
[QUOTE=Doc Diddles;25403276]Fallout 1 and 2 have the best story. Fallout 3 has the best side quests. Hopefully New Vegas can improve on the gameplay instead of being "Oblivion with guns: the expansion pack"[/QUOTE] Agreed. FO3 had some nice side quests although not THAT many. 1 and 2 had a great story. They seem to be combining both for NV. Original writers doing the story and we can expect improved quality of FO3 sidequests. I think the story will be a bit more immersive too. Apparently there's a lot of parts where you can have a direct impact and you decide the game's story. Caesar's Legion, NCR, House, or yourself. Or perhaps the other smaller factions can be lead to glory.
Oh man, I cant WAIT for the game, I really hope its goinig to be awesome! But what I think kinda sucks is that it looks almost exactly like FO3 :/ . But hey, it still looks okay ;>

Thats nothing, from what I am hearing Bethesda isn't giving up Gamebryo yet. :suicide:
[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;25404933]Well what do you expect? It's a wasteland. I am kinda sad they didn't change the engine much at all though.[/QUOTE] I think I've read somewhere that they recycled a bunch of textures for like inside houses and stuff.

Todd Howard doesn't seem like a smart man.

I just went through the entire day thinking that I would get to finally download New Vegas when I got home, only to look at my library and have it say 'Fallout: New Vegas is coming soon!' :saddowns:
why? it wont be out until the 19th.
If only it was out today. :sigh:
I pray for pre-loading!
[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;25405184]Thats nothing, from what I am hearing Bethesda isn't giving up Gamebryo yet. :suicide:[/QUOTE] Because licensing a new engine costs more than extending a contract for an old one. If a new engine would bring more customers however...

Did you hear the guy at the end in the background? "Hope my dad doesn't find out there's hookers in the game"
[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;25408413]Did you hear the guy at the end in the background? "Hope my dad doesn't find out there's hookers in the game"[/QUOTE] did you get the sudden fits of static in your speakers
I'm deaf now because of it.
[QUOTE=bepassley;25408476]did you get the sudden fits of static in your speakers[/QUOTE] Worse, I got them in my earphones right after I'd raised the volume because the stream had gone a little quiet.
I thought this was live.
