Capital wasteland vs Mojave wasteland ?

I have been playin fallout new vegas recently and i have to say it is really good game. Everything i loved from fallout 3 is back and more. However there is one thing that keeps fallout new vegas from usurping fallout 3 as my favourite rpg and that is the mojave wasteland(ihope im spellin itrite).when i played fallout 3 i loved justradnomly through the capital wasteland to see wat i could find. The scenery and the people and enemies u met totally it made it worthjustturning around in a circle for a cuple of secs and walking in the direction that i stopped.but i just dont get that experience with the mojave wasteland. its very similar to the capital wasteland but it just at times a bit too bland for me. so anyways wat do u prefer the capital wasteland or the mojave wasteland

To make this thread alive, I would stay on topic.

Mojave wasteland FTW for me. Mojave is so much fun to explore than The Capital. Capital wasteland is nothing but chunks of rocks, no deserts and open fields. Certain places in Mojave are definitely better than Capital's. Then again, it's just my opinion, so don't go bashing me :P

Well that's even worse... Anyways, The Mojave Wasteland is much, much, MUCH better than The Capital Wasteland. There is way more unique things to see, there's actually signs of civilization (people were living in the freakin dirt in FO3. This is supposed to be hundreds of years after the bombs dropped, people), COLOR, no subway tunnels, an actual sense of danger (Deathclaws are there as soon as you start the game), more quests and definitely more interesting characters.Juggernaut140

QFT, I completely agree with this.

The Mojave Wasteland is way more detailed and dense, the Capital Wasteland was absolutely boringly bland.

The capital Wasteland was much bigger and with a lot more things to be discovered, mojave wasteland is good I don't mind the smaller map it's actually stopped me fast travelling

OH and what about the companions, I meet a guy called boone, and he's killing everything for me, I just stand there a let him at, I might have to get rid off him.

Uuuuh, how? you do realise that it being his favourite rpg would put it up agains the old fallouts too right?

i mean, really, how would that make it worse?

I hate how deathclaws reside in the middle of the map kind of annoying going around

Mojave is cool because it's more open and colorful.

i only liked the Capital Wasteland because of the monuments.

This. That's why I'm fixing it.

Fallout 3

I couldn't find a Fallout NV map weird but its not as big has fallout 3, the minute I started and looked at the map I knew it was smaller

Fallout NV, okay maybe it's not a small as I thought, didn't seem as big when I looked at it on my pit boy, Fallout 3 still a little bit bigger

fallout 3's map while smaller in general size has more to access than fallout NV

That's the number of locations, not the size of the map. FO3 has a bigger map, but there are more empty space and distances between locations are longer.

The Mojave Wasteland is vastly superior, because It's feels alive and connected, unlike the Capital Wasteland which each location feels isolated from the rest of the world.Also, New Vegas feels like a game in the same universe of the first two games, with a lot of references to Fallout and Fallout 2.

Fallout 3 has a bigger map with better things to do. I fail to see how its bland and how new vegas is bigger. Seriously!!! New vegas map looks is smaller,there are areas you cant even go.dakan45

Fallout 3 has a bigger world, but no way in hell it has more things to do than Fallout: New Vegas. New Vegas has three times more NPCs and quests. Also, the explorable areas are way more interesting than the previous game.

Arguing about which is better is like arguing, "What's the better color? Beige or tan?"

They both have long desolate stretches in them with some interesting spots. They are both WASTELANDS after all.

So far I've enjoyed the Capital Wasteland a lot more, probably because I was there first and Obsidian didn't do enough to distinguish NV graphically from Fallout 3. Everything looks the same.

You know your including all that space around the main gaming area in Fallout NV which you can't explore, yeah open up your pit boy and look at all the area on the map you can't go to, it's not even part of the game world, just filler to make the map look bigger than it is In Fallout 3 every where on the map is accessibleSupabul

Shamefully I'm yet to play Fallout NV :(

Despite Obsidian taking over, i'm still on the fence about it. I'm trying to limit my spending on games, since the vast majority I buy I end up not playing past the hour mark

[QUOTE="navyguy21"][QUOTE="BigDaddyPOLO"]Doesn't Fallout 3 cut off portions of DC with heaps of debris just because they were lazy and wanted you to crawl around in the metro? Lol that is ridiculous.

I didn't much like F3. It felt like a chore to play at times :(

But Obsidian are just ... Amazing.

Capital Wasteland easily. In my opinion the Mojave Wasteland didn't feel post apocalyptic. In the Capital Wasteland you really feel like the world has no hope. It's a desolate and extremely dangerous wasteland yielding many rewards for those brave enough to venture out deep into it. The gloomy, dark setting felt much more atmospheric to me as well.

They make great games ... That happen to beplagued by bugs. I don't really care about bugs. Alpha Protocol is one of my favorite games this gen. Vampire The masquerades, a buggy mess is one of my favorite games of all time, along with NWN2.

I didn't find any bugs in Fallout 3 ... But i'm sure theree are many.

As for Alpha Protocol..I glad you liked it. It thought it was terrible, probably their worst game. No definitely.

It kind of makes sense doesn't it? People who have problems will complain, people who don't, won't.

I've come across a bug that will not allow me to finish a quest properly. it's part of the "main" NCR storyline.

Do a google search on "I put a spell on you" and see what people are saying about the monorail.

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"][QUOTE="heretrix"]Amazing? Yeah, they know who to make an amazing broken game. NV shows that they seem to not be able to make a game that isn't horribly broken. I'm digging NV quite a bit but I can't ignore the fact that the game is even buggier than Fallout 3, which is a pretty astounding feat. Even after the patch there are still broken quests.

[QUOTE="heretrix"]

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"] 18 hours in I have not had a single bug, except for some animation glitches which correct themselves after a second or two. I knew it would happen, for some reason I never seem to experience these bugs like people make out. Maybe it's because people who experience the bugs are "louder".Ragingbear505

I enjoyed the Capital Wasteland more too, it was much more interesting and entertaining to explore, as were the towns, the majority of New Vegas towns are either small, or just consist of a bunch of unnamed NPCs. And, yes, I'm aware New Vegas has more quests and locations, it still doesn't make those quests and locations nearly as interesting as Fallout 3's though.
