About to start it up again today. I left off on my way towards Vegas to get Chandler -- I mean Benny's punk ass. Probably gonna stop at a town on the way and do some side missions though just because it's fun.

And fuck those Deathclaw, I tried getting past them on one road like 5 times last night and me and Boone died each time. At one point it was Boone getting mauled by like 3 of them while I was running for my life with my stealthboy turned on.... They caught me

I'm gonna come back with a Fatman and destroy their asses out of pure hatred.

I can't wait to see what Mod's the PC community comes up with. The downloaded mods from nexus made FO3 SO much better than the original game. I must have downloaded and used hundreds of mods from there for F03.

They had Mods that made eating, drinking, sleeping and injuries be more realistic. Looks like New Vegas put some of that into the core game.

Can't wait to pick his up.

I'm going to wait a tad before I pick it up but the more people keep playing it and praising it the more I just want to buy it.

It's only 50 bucks on steam for the PC too which makes things worse.

If you loved Fallout 3 then you owe it to yourself to pick this up.

Well turns out there was a patch released overnight for the 360, and PC got it's second patch as well. Good news that they're already on their shit this fast.

Leaf seriously, i think this might be better than Fallout 3. I'm enjoying the setting of the desert/vegas a lot more than Washington DC. Maybe cause I'm from the DC area.

You seriously are doing yourself a large disservice by not getting this game.

Shes a bitch. I haven't talked to her since i left that one horse town.

 

[j.hen]

About to enter The Strip and get Veronica that dress she wants so much.

 

[Boucher]

is it true the 360 patch was released?

 

[Maynard]

yeah, it got an update. dont know what it was for though. i do know that my game was running fine and now i have a had a few instances where creatures were shown on the radar and i could hear them....but they were not on the screen. One was to complete a mission so i had to save and reload to get him to show on the screen

 

[jms493]

i heard a patch is needed bad....game is loaded with bugs.

 

[Maynard]

my only real gripe with this game is that the look of the game is exactly like fo3. i dont understand why they didnt make things look different. every last detail looks just like the game did 2 years ago. to its credit, the look didnt take step back like some other games like R6 vegas 2 and cracky 2.

im not taking quality either cause for 2 years old it isnt bad. rather the same stuff, the same look, same positioning, same roads, buildings, decaying, alot of the same creatures.

its like taking fo3 and releasing an extended DLC that has all new story, charecters and some new perks and features

i heard a patch is needed bad....game is loaded with bugs.

Patches are already out brah.

 

[Maynard]

yeah thats been said. but a patch doesnt mean shit if you dont know what it fixed

i watched the gamespot video review and they showed a ton of bugs and also mentioned all the quest bugs they had too. i can deal with technical issues related to the engine, but when you start having bugs prevent you from completing or updating missions and it fucks up the game then that starts to be a game killer

Finally picked this up Friday and played most of the night. I made it to the part where...

 

You get a sheriff for Primm. I talked the former sheriff doing time in NCRCF to do the job after I payed for his pardon. I'm deciding wether to tell the Powder Gangers in NCRCF about the NCR attack or help the NCR take back the prison.
