Why does New Vegas look exactly the same as Fallout 3?

[Necrobrotent No.]

wait one year, get game of the year edition.

Pay 20 bucks less get almost 100 more content.

[Necrobrotent No.]

>>6332303
Because they used the exact same graphical engine?

All they changed were gameplay elements.

Which from what I've heard a good thing.

They just tweaked it so autistic No Mutants Allowed users would stop bitching about "OUR FRANCHISE!" QQ

Fallout 3 is superior, unless you have the previously mentioned hang-up.

Well, the engine didn't age so well.

It's a singleplayer game for fucks sake, pirate it and all the DLCs.

[Necrobrotent No.]

>>6332366
But if a games good and I have money why not support the studio so they can make more games?

I wouldn't pirate a car (unless it was something like an isuzu gemini which is unpossible to find in the states)

That's funny, it still looks like a first person shooter with 3D models instead of an isometric strategy game with 2D sprites.

Fallout 1 and 2 were great but play either now and the shit feels dated as fuck.

All the great point and clicks are like that.

[Anonymous No.]

I want this game, but there's no way I'm paying $50 for it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332384

Well, yeah, given they're the only people in the world who would buy that sort of game in this day and age. They just added some intelligence checks and fucked about with the lore some, that was enough to sate the greybeards.

[Necrobrotent No.]

>>6332389
If its not then why are you playing it?

Do you really have nothing better to do with your life than play shitty videogames?

i want to know if this shit gets better later on
which so far it doesnt

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332387
When Fallout 3 came out, I replayed both Fallout 1 and 2. Fun games, not dated in the least. They aren't even DOS games, after all. That's dated.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332404
He probably is just playing it because it has "Fallout" in the title. Kind of like how some people will play any game that uses Touhou characters on this board. Pathetic.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332412
If you aren't enjoying the game now you probably won't be later on. Did you even play Fallout 3? It's essentially the same game. However you felt about F3 is likely going to be your sentiments towards New Vegas.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

>>6332376
So you seem to think that a Fallout 3.5 is somehow good using a 2006 engine with 2008 game design, and still being buggy as hell. I mean it's a mess, and seriously I know >NVIDIA but a 460 GTX should run the game just fine on high, but it doesn't it starts to suck ass when a lot of NPCs are around.

NO I DON'T WANT THEM TO MAKE A NEW GAME LIKE THIS. I WANT MY FALLOUT TO BE TACTICAL RPG.

JUST AS I DON'T WANT THEM TO MAKE VALKYRIE CHRONICLES FOR THE PSP.

AND LIKE I DON'T WANT ANY MODERN WARFARE GAMES FUCK THEY RUINED CALL OF DUTY FOREVER.

I don't want games like that, thats why I don't buy them. I buy games like Civilizations 5, Starcraft 2, LEFT 4 DEAD, BLAZBLUE, RORONA BECAUSE I LIKE THEM.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

Also why people are still playing the game even though it's shitty?

Because I want the story. I want to know stuff, imagine playing Fallout 3 and having no idea what the Enclave was/is and having no idea how super mutants are born, having no idea how dog meat is relevant. I want to be prepared for a good Fallout 4 if it comes, I played both Fallout and 2 and Tactics before Fallout 3 came out.

I feel the whole point and click engine is old.

I mean it had tons of amazing games but we can do so much better with current technologies if we would just learn to use what made those games great (You know like an actually half decent story)

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332471
Download the instruction manual, that's 40% of the story right there. The remaining 60% can be found from spoilers on wikis. There, I just saved you from playing a shit game.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

>>6332472
I blame it too. Too many people have a X360. It's just a shooter console and the PC get ports from it all the time.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

>>6332485
It's one thing to see a picture of the Master on the Wiki and an entirely different one to play the game and fight him and hear people ingame chatter about him.

I know this, I read the wiki in hopes I'll get everything from it for Fallout 3, turns out it's not like that at all.

It's the same damn thing as your operating system. Windows 7 doesn't have first person perspective, why should video games?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332493
What the hell are you trying to argue?

BECAUSE VIDEO GAMES ARE MADE TO BE ENJOYED, AN OS IS A FUCKING TOOL.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

Also a game like call of duty modern warfare 2 takes a year to make, but costs like 5 fucking movies.

And I ask myself what do they spend the money on?

Going out recording 20000 gunshots from every single gun, hiring shit ass expensive military advisers, spending shitton of going in the field to drive a tank, doing extra super detailed textures for some teacup on the table.
They make so many unnecessary stupid expenses.

Fuck.

It's funny all that time spend with gun and they make a shooter that let's you reload in a second, guns have no recoil so you can sprint and fire or have a fucking tripod and you have the same accuracy. Also fucking UVAs, Helicpoters, Nukes and shit.


Battlefield Bad Company 2 is decent, but it's a long shot from the good old BF2,CoD2 day...

I bet BF3 is going to be shit too.

An interface is nothing more than a tool that helps you interact with the game, it is the same thing. The game itself is what is fun, not the GUI.

[Anonymous No.]

Anyone who thinks Fallout 3 was better should be shot on sight.

If only it didn't use that shitty engine.

Good.
Now you have Valkyrie Chronicles.
See no need to turn it into a FPS.

>>6332531
Nevermind, it's just a fucking HUD mod and some guy who's good at working the character sliders, I guess.

[Anonymous No.]

Am I the only one actually having a bit of fun with this game ?
Sure it's not worth buying but still pretty enjoyable, particulary with that so called hardcore mode and all the little references from FO1&2.
I really wish they would get rid of gamebryo though, horrible engine is horrible.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

>>6332549
The story is okay, the voice work kills it. The engine too kills it. The bugs too.

On paper it's pretty good and fun.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332387
I played FO2 a few weeks ago for the first time and I'd say it kicks the shit out of most modern games.

If modern means lame ass ragdoll physics and horribly generic FPS action instead of the kickass unique death animations and strategic battle system from FO1/2, then I'll stick with my dated games.

[Necrobrotent No.]

>>6332540
In the end its all about personal preference.

Honestly if fucking bioware had made fallout 3 instead of bethesda no one probably would have bitched and they would have probably done it as a third person kotor jade empire esque. But the huge shift from, Point and click to FPS ruined the fallout experience in alot of peoples opinions (I'm surprised fallout 3 still managed to get released after brotherhood of steel flopped so hard).

I ended up enjoying fallout 3, yes it lacked in the story elements but you got to see alittle more of the world and watching a raiders head explode is always fun no matter how its animated.

[Anonymous No.]

You make it sound like people don't complain about modern Bioware.

I remember fallout 3 ran fine, super ultra settings, with my 8800GTX. This game I can't do a fight with more then 5 npcs with out it sputtering to shit. What the fuck happened.

[Anonymous of Croatia !na1byG1GU. No.]

>>6332674
Good question. I had a 8800 GTS it run just fine... 460 GTX and it can't do shit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332688
I guess I'll buy another 8800gtx and sli them maybe. Or just not play the game, I can only play video games on weekends anyway. Maybe not worth it.

[Necrobrotent No.]

>>6332644
I was just using it as an example becuase they used make their games more RPG'ish and closer to the original formula.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6332674
My PC runs every game out there with max settings on everything. But New Vegas lags like fuck, more than 5 npcs on screen, like playing on a 5 year old machine.

[PRINNY !.rEDaBGktE No.]

I enjoy this game, but I don't really want to bum rush the ending because after you do the main quest the game ends.

[Snork !IR7ogMhC0s No.]

Make her in Oblivion. She'll be uglier.

[Anonymous No.]

It really is a glorified mod of F3 with the same bland landscapes. They even managed to make the Vegas strip bland.

I wonder how long they'll recycle the same shit from 5 years ago without even trying to improve upon it. It's 2010 and this game has no environment shadows. No wonder it looks so bad.

Anyway I got bored of it after a couple of hours and started to replay STALKER. I'll wait for mods.

I agree with you, prerendered deaths have the potential to be a lot more gory looking than a ragdoll with joints you can sever. However I do like tearing apart rag dolls as well, if I got tired of hacking heads off I can start removing limbs instead.

I reckon incorporating prerendered (or maybe preanimated) deaths with ragdolls would be best. Like, you can rip arms/legs/heads off with total freedom but a critical hit that does enough damage triggers a sequence where the death is more detailed due to being prerendered.

Really, I just miss seeing bones poking out of flesh like in F1 and 2. But I'll never get my dream, why bother animating and modeling a unique death when ragdolls are more flexible and thus cheaper? That's why F3 has a shitty ending, no boss that breaks apart painfully before your eyes. You cut Frank Horgan in half then cut his goddamn head off for fuck sake, The Master bubbles and explodes while his lieutenant's life support armor breaks down and he chokes to death! Fallout 3 failed us in that department.
