Skills will also effect weapon useage. S.P.E.C.I.A.L will have an effect on what weapons you can equip. Also have a low strenght trying to fire a minigun will make the bullets spread out hugely, where as a higher stat will make it easier to manage.

There's something very ye-old Fallout about this.

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiceee

There's something very ye-old Fallout about this.

Main reason I'm looking forward to it. I brought FO1 and 2 after getting FO3. Admitly it took me a while to get into them, but now I really enjoy them and have wondered why beth took some things out in FO3.

I'm going straight in HC when this finally comes out. I always take the RP bit in RPGs seriously, and hardcore just adds to it.

[VioletZer0]

Huh, at least now I figured out where those thoughts came from.

After doing some digging, a good portion of the dev team worked on the first two games.

[EG NeoMorph]

I'm definitely going to be playing this on Hardcore as it builds onto the immersion factor. One of the things I didn't like about FO3 was the fact you could carry tons and tons of ammo. I just hope they don't go the other way and make it so you carry too little.

[Guyyug]

If it's like what it was in FO1 and FO2. I could usually carry a large amount of extra ammo, but I had to remember where some was because I would need to go back, but only in the most extreme cases.

[andar815]

I like the option between hardcore mode and normal. Its something I thought The Elders Scrolls should do when a bunch of people were complaining that you could hit stuff and actually know where to go.

On the weighted ammo, I remember the time in FO3 were I looked at all my ammo and found over 100 missiles. That was a good day. I'm glad hardcore mode is adding weight, as much fun as it was, it was ridiculous.

[VioletZer0]

Hardcore mode is what FO3 should have been on normal mode.

[EG NeoMorph]

I remember looking in my inventory and seeing enough ammo to fill a bloody warehouse... including 10 mini-nukes IIRC.

I don't think I used a mini-nuke once would you believe... waste of a weapon imho.

If you were to look at the stuff in my game, you'd think I was preparing for another war. I have at least 45 mini-nukes, 350 missiles, 12,000 minigun rounds, 1300 .44 Magnum rounds, and some other things. Basically, my character can resupply the entire Brotherhood of Steel and have more than enough to exterminate all life in the wasteland.

*topic* I'm definitely gonna play this game on realistic mode. Carrying an entire armory can get a little boring.

[Guyyug]

I don't think I used a mini-nuke once would you believe... waste of a weapon imho.

I used them on Behemoths, and large numbers of enemies in a pinch, having three deathclaws on you calls for one!

Though I rarely used the fatman, because I restricted myself on how many weapons I can use, two primary, a side arm and a melee weapon.

Fallout: New Vegas Preview

[Guyyug]

Textures look slightly better then FO3 did. And I'm going to get myself a NCR uniform, they look really nice. 

[VioletZer0]

Hardcore mode, the addition of iron sights, hopefully a ''no HUD'' mode, this game is shaping up nicely.

Might be a PC version making the textures look nicer.

Fallout: New Vegas - E3 2010 Gameplay Trailer (HD)

New Vegas E3 trailer. Shows some of the gameplay. Looks like they are adding more real weapons such as the thumper and the M16. And a large oversized ram as a creature.

[BAB3r]

I might actually get this Fallout..these are the same guys that made Oblivion right?

[EG NeoMorph]

Nope, this is done by Obsidian (the ones who did Neverwinter Nights 2 and KOTOR2... They specialise in doing sequels it seems... When they do new IPs though THEY SUCK!

[BAB3r]

Oh ok, gotcha..i want an elderscrolls V!!!!

[Guyyug]

I believe beth are working on the next ES, most likely won't get infomation until next year.

[BAB3r]

Nope, this is done by Obsidian (the ones who did Neverwinter Nights 2 and KOTOR2... They specialise in doing sequels it seems... When they do new IPs though THEY SUCK!

Are you sure it's made by Obsidian? It says Bethesda on the box art haha

Who is developing the game?
In conjunction with Bethesda Softworks, Fallout: New Vegas is being developed by Obsidian Entertainment, the creator of award winning RPGs such as Neverwinter Nights 2. Obsidian is also led by the founders of Black Isle Studios - the developers of the original Fallout and Fallout 2.

[BAB3r]

so they're BOTH making it? guess we're both at fault here

[Guyyug]

No beth is publishing it. There will possibly be some employees from Beth to help develop the game as they are the ones who made the engine NV will be using. But NV is mainly an obsidian devlopment whilst beth work on other projects namely ESV and hopefully the start of FO3.

I was actually slightly disappointed that nothing of ESV was said at E3.

[EG NeoMorph]

Yup, Guyyug is right... It's like Brink is also being published by Bethesda but is being developed by Splash Damage. Remember that Beth is a media company so they also publish other developers titles.

But on F:NV it's an Obsidian developed title...

Oh and Guyyug, I think they finished FO3 already. Do you mean FO5 (as NV will be classed as FO4 because it is like Treyarch's WAW)

[BAB3r]

ok gotcha haha

[Guyyug]

Not 3, I hit the wrong key, I was supposed to hit 4. But all FO games developed by Beth or in the past black isle always had a number. All spin offs do not use a number.

FO1 and 2: Black Isle
Van Buren (Canceled FO3, VB is just a nickname) Black isle

FO: Brotherhood of steel tactics was by Monte Cristo
FO: Brotherhood of Steel was by Interplay

FO3: Beth

NV: Obsidian

See Pattern there.

See Pattern there.

Yeah, they can't count!
