That looks sick.

I gotta agree with this youtube comment:

But what a terrible trailer. I mean extremely terrible. I don't even feel 'teased' about it. Let down.

Agreed.... The F3 teaser trailer was WICKED! Totally got you excited for the game. This one, it just felt like they were trying to replicate it, but it jsut doesnt have the same feel.

[Zewind]

[BloodyIron]

No, really. Is there actually no sound in that video or do I have codec issues?

O RLY?

[sputnik]

I wonder what storyline it will have.

[mobius]

That was the most useless robot ever......

In any case, I'm not going to get my hopes up for this.

[RickDaTuner]

I can HEAR YOU!!!!

Come out, come out where ever you are

STOP HIDING!!!!


I had to get rid of that game, as it was taking a good 5-8 hours out of my life... haha

It was like crack!

Why? Fallout 3 was a fantastic game. Just because the trailer isn't great doesn't mean the game is going to suck.

New game details, snagged from : http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=6937

- There is an optional hardcore mode, the character needs to drink water, ammo has weight, healing isn't instant etc. Normal mode is more similar to Fallout 3 gameplay.
- Vegas didn't get many nukes. More intact buildings, as well as desert vegetation. Vegas itself is mostly intact.
- The storyline is focused on the New California Republic vs. Caesar's Legion vs. New Vegas residents.
- You are not a vault dweller but are given a Pip-Boy by someone who is one. You are a courier, left for dead and saved by a friendly robot.
- There is a screenshot of a vault suit as well.
- There is an assault rifle looking like the M4, as well as a new machine gun that shoots grenades.
- There are special moves for melee weapons in VATS – specifically a move for a golf club called “Fore!” which seems to be a groin shot.
- The Hoover Dam is in the game and is supplying electricity to the city.
- There is a quest to rescue a ghoul from some super mutants. The ghoul can then become your companion
- The Geckos are back.
- Skills have a bigger effect on conversation choices. E.g. someone with a high Explosives skill may be able to have a conversation about explosives where appropriate.
- Bartering is not just lower prices but negotiating for better rewards.
- All dialogue options are shown to all players, regardless of whether you have the stats to succeed or not, though there's no punishment for failure.
- There is a Reputation system for each settlement like in Fallout 2 in addition to Karma.
- Followers can be managed through a context-sensitive menu, with orders like “follow”, “stay” or “attack”.
- There are both dumb and intelligent super mutants, including the elite Nightkin.
- Some super mutants look similar to the ones in Fallout 3, while others are new. There is e.g. a female super mutant with a blonde 1950s style wig and heart-shaped glasses who apparently is one of their leaders.
- Screenshots include a guy with a beard and straw hat, a ghoul and NCR Ranger.
- The only picture of New Vegas itself is concept art and not a screenshot.
- Some location screenshots include a huge model dinosaur advertising a hotel, some satellite dishes, an array of solar panels.
- A character generation shot showing a “vigor machine” instead of the skill book.
- NCR base is the McCarran Airport, Caesar's Legion is based in the Vegas Strip, while super mutants are based in a place called Black Mountain. There is also a town called Fremont and another called Primm. A topless reuve is mentioned as being in the latter. Area 51 also appears.
- NCR Ranger armor is similar to a brown combat armor with sleeves, there are concept arts of a Ranger.

i for one never experienced ONE single bug/glitch in Fallout 3, but i heard there were tons and a patch from Bethesda was long overdue, likewise New Vegas has some of its own probably wont be fixed, just hope theres no glitch to do with maps, saving and gameplay, idc about the animations on a character (which seems to be the bulk of the glitches/bugs)

I only experienced one glitch on Fallout 3, it was hilarious. I took an aimed rifle shot at a Deathclaws leg, and when it hit, he LAUNCHED INTO SPACE. Straight up in the air, never coming back down, at least no where near me if he did

Most of the glitches seem to be on PC and PS3

[Awd-Tsi]

Just downloaded this last night I'll try it out and see how it is

[Redlined_8000]

I got a couple of glitch's for PC already. My character is stuck in a super slow walk mode. Im not sure how to run faster.... (And no im not crouching)

Also got a bug with aiming down the sight with a right click. It turns the whole camera in a different direction when i try.

edit: Figured out taping the cap locks makes you run.
