Oh my fucking god the dialogue choices in fallout 1 are so goooooood. It's a travesty that it's not matched by 3,NV or 4. Some guy is tending the fields, we have high int, we explain crop rotations to him. Later. Some guys tell you that you can't enter an area in the hub. You've got a leave option and then you've got an all capslock line that can be summed to "I GO WHERE I PLEASE" (which we assume ends up with you getting shot to death, but then again our charisma is 8 so maybe...) It's just so wild and crazy. We need this. New vegas had some good stuff, but it doesn't reach that level. It'd be so good in today's culture too, where people make memes and create free marketing.
[QUOTE=fulgrim;51833274]Completely subjective opinion but I preferred the humorous dialogue in new vegas to the stuff in fallout 4. Most of the [Sarcastic] lines seemed more like [Stupid] lines imo. There are only so many times you can have my character say "Haha! I hope the Radiation gives me super powers!" before I start looking for mods that enable him to shoot himself in the head. I only remember one [Sarcastic] line that actually made me laugh, and it was in Nuka world during a conversation with Gage- [i] "Hey boss, can I ask you a question?" "Didn't you just?" "Oh my god I think I might just shoot you instead." [/i][/QUOTE] The pains of having only four options...

I do wish RPGs would put more effort into being RPGs, but it seems like as the standards for graphics and gameplay go up, it leaves less room for developers to sperg out on dialogue, skills, quests, etc. :(

Some of them don't really make any sense like EVE and Real-time weapon modding. Hitman's animations still have a lot of the same problem's as NV's except now they're flashier (and in some cases) jankier

I'm only using Project Nevada and the Realtime weapon modding so I don't have to carry two different .45 pistols, even if the thought of having TWO 1911s gets me sexually excited.

Okay guys I need some help here. My PC specs are: Windows 10 x64, Asus GTX 1080 Strix, 16 GB RAM, i7-2600, Asus p8p69 motherboard, Samsung 1tb SSD, 1000w power supply. Display- 24" 1080p 60hz LCD (HDMI) So every time I load up fallout 4 I get little stutters when running around I've checked using MSI afterburner and my fps never drop below 59 with every graphics option on and maxed out. And early today I was at the part where you get the power armour and there was a dead corpse in the building that kept flickering even when I was standing still like it was a hologram. I'm running some high resolution texture mods but my frame rate still never goes below 59. I'm at a loss is it my monitor? I'm so frustrated. The new Doom game runs buttery smooth all maxed out on my PC so I just don't get it. Someone please give me some guidance.

[QUOTE=Ruby_Axe;51831293]I got nostalgic and reinstalled Fallout NV, I remember someone posting a vid ages back where the gunplay had been modded into a semi-reasonable state with recoil and various other things, any chance any you remember that or can lead me in the right direction to mods improve the gunplay?[/QUOTE] Here are the links some mods.

Like it should be.
Did a test bake, came out alright [t]https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/images/1151/36837675-1487301588.png[/t]
That looks awesome! Something about this doesn't look right though: [img]http://puu.sh/u6Lub/381bfaaa32.png[/img]
speaking of 80's action movie weapons (this isn't actually in any but it [I]looks like one[/I] ok) [video=youtube;g8Pz6rJprCk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8Pz6rJprCk[/video] i hope all the weapons in WARS are available separately, not really into mods that replace vanilla stuff
[QUOTE=gk99;51831995]And shotguns. I'm upset that the double-barreled sucks so much. I would've liked it if we could've made it fucking badass through a workbench to get it to gibbing-raider-torsos levels at the end of its upgrades.[/QUOTE] everything is way too slow, from the fire rate to the reload speed. Makes me not want to use it .
Pfft. Slow fire rate. Whatya talkin bout ey? [vid]https://files.catbox.moe/cg1dzt.webm[/vid]
[QUOTE=redBadger;51834847]everything is way too slow, from the fire rate to the reload speed. Makes me not want to use it .[/QUOTE] Yeah i really hate how auto shotguns modded or otherwise are only fire SLIGHTLY faster than i can shoot single shot while doing like 30% less damage.

There's just something about you to face a Synth Courser after he pretty much kills everyone in the entire building without any trouble and you just go, "I'm here to pick up an order. Two large pepperoni and a calzone. Name is 'Fuck you'." They are usually a nice change from the all-present serious tone everyone talks about anything.

[QUOTE=Xubs;51828241]the bastard gun is great and anyone who goes to bat saying its shit because it wouldn't function in the real world is picking a fight with me[/QUOTE] I'm under the impression that it functions just like a harmonica gun with influences of a sten.
When I played fallout 4, i was really turned off by how bad the dialogue was. You guys are saying it's good?
[QUOTE=The Jack;51835728]When I played fallout 4, i was really turned off by how bad the dialogue was. You guys are saying it's good?[/QUOTE] We're only saying some of it is good.
[QUOTE=The Jack;51835728]When I played fallout 4, i was really turned off by how bad the dialogue was. You guys are saying it's good?[/QUOTE] No, it is still shit by and large, it does have a couple of moments though.
[QUOTE=The Jack;51835728]When I played fallout 4, i was really turned off by how bad the dialogue was. You guys are saying it's good?[/QUOTE] There are a small selection of lines that don't fall flat, but that's about it Edit: Wow, we reached a consensus on that in just over a minute
Are there any New Vegas mods that give me something to shoot?
[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;51835858]Are there any New Vegas mods that give me something to shoot?[/QUOTE] Yes, there's one that let's you shoot down your dreams and hopes that Bethesda's writing won't be shit one day. The mod's called "Reality", already installed.

EVERYWHERE.[/B] Expect a Chaos Marine giving you a bolt round to the face the second you leave Doc Mitchell's house.
That reminds me, one time when playing New Vegas, I left Doc Mitchells house after making a new character with 1 luck, a god damn deathclaw was just sitting by the door and murdered my ass. I still don't know if it was a mod that was doing it or the game just hating me.
