Fallout Series Thread V14: When i entered this thread i was hoping there would be more gambling - Games

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972002]Call me crazy, but I'm fairly certain that they wouldn't do that. And I'm pretty sure the world doesn't revolve around your idiotic Fallout 4 ideas - oops, sorry, I meant "wishes".[/QUOTE] My idiotic ideas? I didn't suggest any of my own whatsoever. I merely gave those others had made. I don't live in the US, so I can't suggest areas there that would be ideal or not, because I do not know it very well. And you're quite stubborn in believing Bethesda has the same mindset as you.

[QUOTE=Wingz;42972036]can he be banned for trolling?[/QUOTE] He can, but likely won't.

He's not worth our time. Just report him and move on.

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42971964]Either way, those ideas suck, soooooo... [editline]24th November 2013[/editline] Ty[/QUOTE] wowee aren't you a bundle of joy

Quite frankly, I'm pretty excited for the possibility of a winter fallout landscape. I think it would be pretty cool, and they would be able to explore parts of gameplay and lore that haven't been mentioned before. The timer does say "Nuclear [b]Winter[/b] is coming in..."

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972043]It would be too boring for a game to be set up in Chicago. What could compare to the Washington Monument in Washington, or the Boston Harbor in Boston - what, Wrigley Field?[/QUOTE] I find the massive skyline and sprawl of skyscrapers far more enticing than either Boston or D.C. You have Willis tower, the navy pier, the field museum, plus it was a vibrant home of jazz and crime during the early part of the 20th century, as well as theatre, which would give it a whole unique feel if you were to take that and use it in a Fallout game. It's not as overused as New York, nearly just as big, is home to a variety of architectural styles, it has the canals and sits on Lake Michigan while having cold weather, which would be a first in a Fallout game. I find the liveliness of the city very interesting.

[QUOTE=Loriborn;42972031]They've technically already done so with Fallout Tactics, so there's that, not to mention the fact that they've hinted so much at Chicago in NV, that I have optimism that a later game in the franchise will take place there. It's obvious that the 4 will be in Boston, but that doesn't mean it was the right choice or that it will or will not be interesting. We'll just have to see how it goes. You still haven't said how these ideas are bad though, beyond "because you said so."[/QUOTE] First of all, Tactics was developed by Micro Forté, not Bethesda - until they hand it off to some other group of developers, the Fallout franchise is their baby. So they will take care of it by staying away from places like Australia, or the USSR, or maybe even Chicago. I'm not saying that Chicago wouldn't be interesting... ...oh wait. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. And second of all, these ideas would be bad because the games need to be set up in places that have cool landmarks, not because of its economical influence on the world...Chicago is not ready for Fallout.

Because Boston has the harbor... and...?

The location for both games was not chosen because of "cool landmarks." Tactics didn't care either. Neither was New Vegas, as the city was reworked completely and contains none of the original architecture from the real city at all, and most of the world is completely original apart from name and general setup. D.C. was literally the only game in the series wherein the "cool landmarks" were relevant, but even then, there were literally, what, three or four memorable locations in D.C. that were real-world locations? Last I checked, D.C. metro isn't exactly inspired or enjoyable to play through. Chicago has far more landmarks, far more diversity in its structure, and far more cultural relevance to the Fallout time-period than any other location, and you dismiss it based on premises that aren't even existent. A setting should be chosen for much more than "it looks cool," and there are a number of good reasons why Chicago would be just as good a setting as anywhere else.

...could you guys hurry up on the banning? It's getting pretty late, and I'm starting to get tired of explaining how stupid this forum is... [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("banme" - postal))[/highlight]

Landmarks or not, I see any setting interesting as long as they expand gameplay and lore, most likely not but hey It's a fallout game, there will be hours spend on it. I know I will.

[QUOTE=Tureis;42972213]And you're just continuing to prove my point, congrats.[/QUOTE] ...and your point would be...?

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972219]...and your point would be...?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Tureis;42972149]Christ, can you be more of condescending passive-aggressive asshat?[/QUOTE] Yes, yes you can.

I need myself some decent mods. Any suggestions?

[QUOTE=doomevil;42972216]Landmarks or not, I see any setting interesting as long as they expand gameplay and lore, most likely not but hey It's a fallout game, there will be hours spend on it. I know I will.[/QUOTE] They would need a worthwhile setting to expand first - like Boston.

[QUOTE=Blu_ninja;42972228]I need myself some decent mods. Any suggestions?[/QUOTE] Vegas or 3?

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972219]...and your point would be...?[/QUOTE] He's pointing out the fact you're being one of those guys who start trouble on a topic we've discussed every page. Please don't be that person.

And I'm pretty sure the world doesn't revolve around your idiotic Fallout 4 ideas - oops, sorry, I meant "wishes".[/QUOTE] I cannot tell if your a troll or just really fucking stupid, and neither one changes the fact that you're a prick. I guess I am just fighting fire with fire. Anyways, I had to uninstall TTW because it was making the game unstable, especially the Fallout 3 parts. So, what mods would you recommend to make Fallout 3 more bearable? Nothing to tacticool bullshit or anything lore breaking, just changes to the mechanics to make it more like New Vegas and maybe some weapons and armor to make up for all the lost content.

[QUOTE=Tureis;42972235]Vegas or 3?[/QUOTE] Vegas sorry I forgot to specify.

[QUOTE=Tureis;42972227]Yes, yes you can.[/QUOTE] At least I've got the 'passive' and 'asshat' parts down...you're just condescending and aggressive.

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972188]So, tell me - would you play a Fallout game that didn't have cool landmarks that you could venture through or loot through...or do you just focus on reaching 100 in Speech or something?[/quote] Uh, yes? I have. I've played through all five Fallout games multiple times in the past, and I rebought them all on Steam because I enjoy them all so much. Fallout 1 and 2 had interesting landmarks because they [b]created[/b] them through interesting backstory and cool situations and characters. Necropolis and Vault City and the Hub and the Cathedral were not real places in any way, shape, or form, but I found them 10x more interesting than some of the locations in 3 or New Vegas. That's not to say either didn't have unique and cool locations, but I didn't say "wow the Washington monument," I couldn't care less about that, but when I visited Tenpenny Tower, or Oasis, I was much more interested. I still play to level up of course. [quote]And New Vegas didn't have any cool landmarks? The Strip, Hoover Dam, Highway 95, Nellis Air Base...none of these were cool or fun to play through?[/quote] Honestly? The Strip was lacking, we hardly got to see the Hoover Dam, Highway 95 was barren aside from stops along the way, and Nellis was a pain in the ass. However, the original locations, Vaults, the Fort, they were nice, but overall, New Vegas lacked in interesting environment. Despite this, I find it one of the best games in the series, because everything else is so much better. The original locations are far more interesting, and seeing real world equivalents is just a little thing that makes me smile, nothing more. [quote]And I don't know about anyone else, but I found running through D.C. Metro pretty fun.[/QUOTE] insanity

[QUOTE=MR_CRUMPETS;42972188] And I don't know about anyone else, but I found running through D.C. Metro pretty fun.[/QUOTE] I don't get how anyone could enjoy the metros, honestly it felt like that they just copy and pasted each metro and change some props around and done. And if you're going to be exploring D.C then you're going to be taking them a lot.

[QUOTE=Blu_ninja;42972245]Vegas sorry I forgot to specify.[/QUOTE] Off the bat, there should be two lists of suggestions on the OP. One mod I'd like to recommend is Outside Bets; it does a restoration of plenty minor things. [url]http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/46648//?[/url]

[QUOTE=mastoner20;42972079]Watch it be a reworked Operation Anchorage gameplay teaser.... :/[/QUOTE] I think I might be the only person in this thread who really liked Operation Anchorage. I really fail to see what other people complain about it.

[QUOTE=Pops;42972411]I think I might be the only person in this thread who really liked Operation Anchorage. I really fail to see what other people complain about it.[/QUOTE] It's a short, linear expansion that just only has you shooting at things. It's okay for what it is, but I wouldn't even consider it a really needed expansion. Also the loot's nice, but I feel it sets you ahead too early.
