Fallout New Vegas Official Teaser Trailer [HD]The game is set in a post-apocalyptic, retro-futurist Las Vegas following the Great War between the US, China and other countries, a conventional and nuclear war that occurred on October 23, 2077 and lasted less than two hours despite causing immense damage and destruction. Before the Great War were the Resource Wars, during which the United Nations disbanded, a plague rendered the United States paranoid, and Canada was annexed. The city of New Vegas itself didn't get hit as much as other districts, and most buildings were left intact. Hoover Dam supplies all the free electricity and water to those who control it.
The story will continue some parts of the Fallout and Fallout 2 stories, but will not be related in any way to the one in Fallout 3.
Fallout: New Vegas will take place in 2280, 3 years after the events of Fallout 3 and 40 years after Fallout 2, making this installment set the farthest in the series. The New California Republic will play a major part in the story, in a three way struggle between the NCR, the Caesar's Legion slavers, and the local New Vegas populace.
The player will play as a courier, who was left to die in a shallow grave (Possibly from the trailer), rescued by a robot named Victor, and patched up by a Doctor Mitchell.
Features:
* The gameplay system will be similar to the Fallout 3 gameplay, although some changes are likely to be made (e.g. Damage Threshold might make a return).
* VATS will return, with melee weapons having special moves, such as "Fore!" for golf clubs.
* The SPECIAL system will return, but now it directly influences speech options and quests.
* Karma is back, but now incorporated alongside a reputation system, similar to Fallout 2.
