[Fafine]

think i might pick it up since gt5 got delayed

[jbsali]

fallout 3 was great! can't wait for New Vegas

[JHatta]

what do you need to run it? i worry my laptop will not be powerful enough, F3 at some times got laggy

[Hondaracer]

before i upgraded i played through like 75% of F3 with laggy graphics

if i knew how amazingly awsome it was going to be running a decent rig, i wouldnt have even played it like that lol

[JHatta]

yah low graphics suck.

Is this a cd-key mandatory game? as in you are required to register it online before playing?

[whateverman]

I play fallout 3 on the ps3
Great game with lots of stuff to do
Can't wait for new Vegas

Sweeet.... Fallout 3 was awesome.

I wish they would release a new Oblivion game too.

[ForbiddenX]

Anyone know if it's a steamworks game? I wanna get it but I might not be able to purchase right off steam because they don't accept PayPal instant transfer and I have no CC :(.

Would buy the retail if I could get it to work on my steam account like CIV5.

[jbsali]

don't know if you guys knew this already but the game has quite a few celebrity voice actors. The new DJ "Mr. New Vegas" will be voice actor "Mr. Las Vegas- Wayne Newton."

Thought that was pretty neat! lol

[nabs]

is the game pretty long?

[ForbiddenX]

^I think fallout 3 is about 40hrs long but don't quote me on that.

Definitely worth it for the price.

And to answer my previous question, Fallout New Vegas does require steam to play. Which means I can buy it anywhere and just pop it into my steam account. Hooray!

[Hondaracer]

fuck i got a test on Wednesday, and i plan on grabbing it tom after school lol

gotta resist installing it until i get some studying done

[ForbiddenX]

^yea I have one tomorrow, quiz on wed, another one on thursday. Won't stop me from picking it up though lols

Whats the benefit of running this game on steam?

[ForbiddenX]

For me, I like having my PC games all on my steam account, it gives me access to it in the future and it doesn't require me to have a physical copy of the game.

You get the steam overlay and stuff in game so you get to chat and do all that stuff. You get the steam achievements too I think. Not sure if you'll get the Live ones. But I'm not much of an achievement whore anyways.

Some people don't really like steam as they find it just to be another DRM.

[mrks]

Fallout 3 had 5 killer DLC story add-ons.
Can you imagine the DLC for New Vegas? I hope they will have the Ninja armour again.

[twitchyzero]

i'll just wait for the PS3 GOTY version with all the DLC's that'll come out probably in a year..

i bought the ps3 GOTY for Fallout 3 and I didn't even finish 10% of that game yet lol

[TekDragon]

don't know if you guys knew this already but the game has quite a few celebrity voice actors. The new DJ "Mr. New Vegas" will be voice actor "Mr. Las Vegas- Wayne Newton."

Felicia Day is apparently one of the voices as well.

[!oHenry]

WHOOOO its out!!!

[ForbiddenX]

How is it so far? Can't wait to get my copy tomorrow!

[Hondaracer]

Picking it up after school ohhh shit

[VeeDubya]

Just picked up the last of two copies for PS3 at EB coquitlam! Now have to wait until work is over...:(

[FishTaco]

looks kinda glitchy.

one thing i didnt like about the 3rd was when someone goes through a door, the door doesnt open, they just appear.

[6insomnia9]

I can't wait to play it, Fallout 3 was awesome.

[nabs]

Blockbuster is taking my pos moh for 54 bucks, trading for this game.

[Fuhrër-Z]

Went down to EB and traded in Bad company 2 and demon's souls. Stupid CSR tried to convince me to get that $3 disc protection, and then lied to me about pre order DLC, which I didn't get... So lame. Can't wait to play :D only 10 min left in class hehehehe...

[ForbiddenX]

Just got it but can't activate it cause I can't get onto the steam servers :S

[mrks]

I hate radscorpions.

The new trait system is interesting a whole play on the "you win some, you lose some".
What traits did you guys pick?

[Fafine]

u guys playing on computer?

[Hondaracer]

yea computer, suprisingly it's slowing down my comp a bit, when i played F3 it never lagged at all, might have to lighten up on the ultra high settings even though thats what it set it on itself

so far pretty fun

[Narayan]

What do you guys recommend PC or 360? My pc is powerful enough to play at max settings but these type of games tend to be better on console no?

[ForbiddenX]

^I'd say these type of games are better for PC. I did play Fallout 3 on the 360 though.

If you're PC is good enough for it then get it for PC. Mods and stuff will eventually come out for the game which is a good advantage for PC gamers. And it is an FPS so mouse + keyboard ftw.

edit: just finished my install yipeee

[Hondaracer]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

i was clearing up space and deleted a game that had some files installed at C:

i managed to fuck up a shit load of programs including steam, CS5, etc. now i gotta fuckin reload everything and i lost my save :(

buddy i love this shitttttt

[mrks]

Playing on the 360. I played F3 on the PC. The one thing I miss from the PC version is the "auto walk" button.

[TekDragon]

Yeah, unforgivably epically hard.

[tegz]

Yeah, unforgivably epically hard.

but very rewarding! jeez you die and lose all your exp, so what =P

[Cman333]

Yeah, unforgivably epically hard.

Heh Demon's Soul

I remember I went through hell to find that game. I got the first batch that was released and played for an hour....I've never been sooooooooo frustrated in my life. The more you die, the harder it gets. It's not a forgiving game. Definitely not recommended for the casual gamer.

I can't say I enjoyed it, it definitely didn't live up to the hype for me either. I hate the rag doll effect of the corpses. You walk over them and it's like you were punting them for a field goal.

I ended up selling it for exactly what I paid for it because it was so high demand.

[tegz]

Oh btw, anyone having FPS lag issues on PC try this fix:
http://forums.bethsoft.com/index.php?/topic/1123822-potential-fix-for-npc-slowdown/

I was running FO3 at 60 on max settings with an overclocked GTX 460 and I was getting 30 FPS is NV which made no sense... then realized the graphics rendering was buggy as fuck in NV... This has already been fixed for FO3 but not NV.. retarded Bestheda!!

Anyway the fix worked for me, 60fps on max =)

[jasonturbo]

I bought fallout when it first came out and only finished it last week lol I never played it till i read about new vegas and was like "Oh shit I still havent finished F03" hahaha

I've been fallout fan since first ones on PC... New vegas should be awesome

[hal0g0dv2]

thought it was gonna get a better review

[LUUUUUUUU]

is the story related to fallout3? or can i just start playing new vegas?

[!oHenry]

^^ Completely new story

i dont have a /common folder in my Steam folder?

[tegz]

i dont have a /common folder in my Steam folder?

I just installed it to the FO:NV directory as I didnt get the game thru steam..

Try looking for C:/Program files/Bestheda/Fallout new vegas/(put the file here)

[ForbiddenX]

try Steam/steamapps/common

thats where mine was

[Fuhrër-Z]

why would you trade demon's souls!! that game is epic!!!

Cause I beat it, then I beat it again, then I tried to fuck the disc, but that didn't work, so I decided to trade it in. Fallout: new vegas is pretty epic so far though.

DISCLAIMER: ANYONE WHO'S THINKING ABOUT GETTING THIS FOR PS3 AND HAVE AN XBOX OR PC, GET IT FOR THOSE INSTEAD, THE PS3 VERSION IS OF LESSER QUALITY.

I love these games but this game isn't as technically sound as fallout 3, this isn't the same developer, and the game isn't as well optimized, as stated by a user a few posts up. It's using the same engine, but requires slightly more horsepower to run.

[Hondaracer]

I'm enjoying it thoughroughly, I'm reading on other forums alot of people complaining there's no innovation between F3 and this, I don't know what the big suprise is, I think it's great so far

Got the sniper companion whatever his name is, he's pretty bad ass lol, although I'm not feeling how good I've been lol

[UnDeadMage]

just think of this as a expansion. fallout 3 was an amazing game to boot

[!oHenry]

Anyone else having game crash issues?

[ForbiddenX]

^No crashes here but I haven't been playing really long.

Love the game so far though. I don't feel like I need to beat it anytime soon so I'll take my sweet time with it.

[Hondaracer]

Yea fuck this game is so much fun, played it 2 days now and have 8 hours logged lol, I'm in freeside right now but I think I might leave and go explore more before going to the strip

Anyone else having game crash issues?

My 360 copy has crashed twice. Once during the main menu and once on the loading screen, while entering a building.

[!oHenry]

NOOOOOOO I lost all my saves....8 hours gone =[

Now i found out they released a patch for it. A little too late

[ForbiddenX]

^dang how did you lose your saves? Did it just overwrite? I thought they were saved in the steam cloud.

Can't wait till I get home tonight, will be playing a lot. Don't have anything to study for on monday.

[Fuhrër-Z]

I've crashed twice, in about o, lets say 5-7 hours of gameplay. Had to press power on the PS3.

[Hondaracer]

no crashes so far on PC

[!oHenry]

I dont know. After the crash the only save I had was the one I made really really in the game. Gah! it's so frustrating.

[Hondaracer]

damn killed the leader of the fiends without the quest, weak

[Fuhrër-Z]

froze again, this time wiping my autosave file, damage wasn't too bad as I have no trust in the game and save every 4-5 minutes.

Restart steam and get the update. It fixes the issue. It disables the steam cloud and the autosaves work

[Hondaracer]

17 hours logged over 3 days lol fuck

game is awsome though, so many more consequences for your actions than F3

[Fuhrër-Z]

I got it on PS3 shoulda mentioned.

[Lyzic]

mine has only crashed once on the ps3, but on reboot i still had the autosave which was only a couple minutes of playing lost.

so far i've been running wild on unarmed, my spiked knuckles are far more effective than any gun, even if they are half the dps of my 10mm smg.

i'm not too far though, just met the legion guys at nipton or wherever

[6insomnia9]

I have 55 hours logged on game and still going, loving this game to bits and no crashes on pc :D

[aznrsx1979]

Only crashed once so far, been busy with work or else I'd have played more. Thoroughly enjoyin it so far.

[Hondaracer]

Ive probably enjoyed this more than F3 so far, I'm in the position to beat the final quest but probably wont until a new DLC comes out to extend the ending

So much shit in this game though there is so much more emphasis on the side quests it seems

[Lyzic]

I'm at about 30 hours or so. Most annoying thing was when Ed-E somehow got lost. Took me 3 hours of retracing my steps to find him just hanging out in the middle of a room.

[mrks]

I lost Veronica. Told her to go to the Lucky 38, but I was all the way out at the snipers nest by Cottonwood cove.
She's either lost or it will take a month or more for her to walk back to the strip on her own.

[nabs]

crashed once. but loving it so far, first time im playing fallout.

[6insomnia9]

So im hated by NCR and Legion :C

[aznrsx1979]

I'm only hated by the Powder Gangers so far...we'll see how long this lasts lol

[!oHenry]

Boone + ED-E + Sniper + Legion area = Sniping fun time =D

[Nicotine]

no crashes but a lil lag here and there. but overall i lov eit.


pick pocketing + insert frag mine = bloddy fun time :thumbsup:
