A screenshot of Marcus has just been released. [IMG]http://static.zenimax.com/bethblog/upload/2010/08/FalloutNVBeta%202010-08-10%2010-34-44-28.jpg[/IMG] and a Fallout 2 comparison [IMG]http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/1/16416/582158-stevefo2_super.jpg[/IMG] Snow Vegas

Ok, so we have our Brotherhood companion, our Super Mutant companion and our Ghoul companion. I really want to see what our robot companion will be though, I'm hoping for something just as badass as RL-3 was. [QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;23962668]Snow Vegas[/QUOTE] Dat Nuclear Winter mang

[QUOTE=Lucinice;23961173]In like every E3 video they brag about how they made the shooting less shitty.[/QUOTE] I hope they actually mean better shooting, and not "we added ironsights"

[QUOTE=Rubs10;23962786]Dat Nuclear Winter mang[/QUOTE] Probably just The Rockies.

I wish Marcus looked a little more "weathered" but they might add that later.

[QUOTE=Lucinice;23959669]At least in fallout 3 you didn't have 5 people in the same room with the exact same voice like in oblivion.[/QUOTE] At least in FO3 you didn't have one person talking in 2 completely different voices when talking about different subjects.

Any new trailers been released?

I tend not to watch any trailers or look at any picture so when I come to play it nothing is spoilt, but I'm still hyped.

gonna get it for my birthday....October 7th :D [editline]05:11PM[/editline] i'm surprised the offical NV trailer isn't in the OP

I'm still at klamath.

[QUOTE=TunnelSnake;23963754]Who's the Brotherhood companion?[/QUOTE] [url=http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Veronica]Veronica[/url], voiced by Felicia Day. For that matter, who's the super mutant companion? Marcus hasn't been confirmed as one and Neil will only help you at Black Mountain.

[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;23956775]I preordered it a few months ago :smug:[/QUOTE] So did I :smug: Where did you pre-order it?

[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;23956775]I preordered it a few months ago :smug:[/QUOTE] I preordered it the first day it was available for preorder.

[QUOTE=UnidentifiedFlyingTard;23959619]Hell yes.[/QUOTE] :D :D :D I loved Marcus.

Marcus always died on me since he was so big, he walked in the way of gunfire. Kinda like in Junktown when I go visit Killian and Ian is in my party, the assassin shoots Killian, Killian hits Ian (this happens every single time), and it ends up in me looting everything from the Junktown guards and Killian, taking the dogtags to the mob boss, then killing him afterwards, then killing the doc and the midget all my fallout playthroughs are the same

Marcus saved my life with, ironically enough, a burst fire weapon. It was the final battle with Kaga and the two of us were in Advanced Power Armour. My party consisted of Marcus, Goris and Vic in a suit of T51b piflered from the San Francisco bunker. A critical burst from Kaga's laser gatling gun sliced Vic in half and nearly killed me. Just as things can't possibly get any worse, Marcus switches to the vindicator minigun I left in his inventory and fires. Sure enough, I take a few points of damage. Nothing serious compared to what happened to Kaga: he took 799 points of critical damage, killing him instantly with a satisfyingly gruesome death animation. Couldn't bear to be without Vic and all the loot I saddled him with, so I loaded and tweaked my companions' tactics and loadout a little.

Though its a shame Harrold won't be in this one. He kinda grew on me in Fo3... (no pun intended)

Anyone pick this up? [img]http://bestrpgpcgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Fallout-3-GOTY-Game-Guide.jpg[/img] I haven't bought a game guide in years but I love exploring and reading about Fallout 3 (I spent ages on the Fallout wiki just reading nonsense), but the price tag is pretty steep. I know the information is available online but..I dunno, I love having something in my hands to look through.

How much DOES it cost? Those things are good coffee table / toilet reads.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;23977084]How much DOES it cost? Those things are good coffee table / toilet reads.[/QUOTE] The prices on Amazon seem off so I'll check next time I'm in a book store. The one I posted is a limited edition collectors copy though. Each book is individually numbered. Usually I don't care about limited stuff but the fact it's hardcover makes me want to find it. The standard one is around $35, I believe, so the hardcover is probably creeping upwards of $50

[QUOTE=OneWingedAngel8;23976445]Though its a shame Harrold won't be in this one. He kinda grew on me in Fo3... (no pun intended)[/QUOTE] Yeah, but there isn't really any way he can be in NV. Because no matter what happens in FO3, he's either rooted to the ground or dead.

You... You linked .bmp that is a capital offense death by lethal injection mandatory That aside character poses like that are getting really old, we've seen them with the default poses since the release of Fallout 3, no matter the angle, it looks like shit. Sorry if I'm being an ass.

I really can't wait for this game; even if it's just FO3 in a different setting, as long as it's got a large enough map to explore that's packed densely enough (hopefully the charred out buildings and towns will actually have something worth finding now) I will love it.

Holy fuck amazing voice actors!

Marcus is back for real? I can't wait for him to shoot my back with his minigun.
