[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="Desmonic"]Hey guys, quick question for those who have finished the game already: Are there any story/character connections to Fallout 3? Just answer with a simple yes or no, please :P Thanks!Desmonic

its random and has nothing to do with the story. But this isnt a refrence to Fallout 3. He was talking about the oil rig from Fallout 2. And was apparently an actual character in the game.

are you sure? Im pretty sure he was refering to the events of Fallout 2.

Edit: I looked it up. Not only was he refering to Fallout 2, but he was apparently a character in the actual game.

So are earthquakes happening more frequently, or is the media reporting earthquakes more readily?

their just being reported more frequently, there has been no statistical rise in the amount of earthquakes.

Diablo has never supported mods, and for a very obvious reason. Because its a persistent game, thus it would completly destroy any sort of balance.

[QUOTE="Advid-Gamer"] So far, I dont see how NV is any more of a rpg then FO3, am I missing something?Prexxus

Well for starters their is a much heavier emphasis on non-combat skills in New Vegas then there ever was in Fallout 3, which was far to combat focused.

I dont even see why SPECIAL was used for Fallout 3. you couldnt play the game unless you were an action-centric character anyway.

I was talking about it from a series standpoint. The Fallout series was always known for the vast variety of ways in which it could be played, and Fallout 3 had none of that. Not only that, buts its mechanics were broken. They threw in SPECIAL to make it seem more like Fallout, but SPECIAL was never designed for action games, and so many skills were outright useless. Not to mention the game was fairly shallow.

And thats just the Mechanics. There are also a lot of issues with the writing and story of Fallout 3. You wouldnt have ever known it was a Fallout game if the name hadent been slapped on. The story was very 1 demensional and lacked any sort of morality. It was a very hollywood take on the Fallout series. New Vegas has far more resemblence to the older Fallout games.

Some details:

• will be very funny, like old Fallout games.
• Will not be an action centric MMO (he talks a lot about "reconstruction")
• Due in late 2012, with Beta early in the year.
• 90+ developers on the project.

Because it's made by Obsidian, it's Fallout, and, unlike Bethesda, Obsidian actually tries to make, you know, RPGs.
