Fallout: New Vegas

[EliteTerm]

yes but why do feral ghoul reavers have more hp than super mutant behemoths

Oh my god the fucking reavers... I hate those guys.

I think I pumped like 40 rounds of my double barrel shotgun into him and he's still fucking standing.

Reavers are piece of cake... with megaton nuke mod that is...

The vaults, I heard that Vault 68 and 69 are gonna be included.

Vault 68: 1000 men, 1 woman

Vault 69: 1 man, 1000 women
*lucky guy

As you can see, Bethesda did implant the funny "69" jokes from Rockstar.

And area 51....This is what it might look like in a cutaway view






Please note. This came from a downloadable building for the game: Simcity 4 Rush Hour. I did not create the building.

But as you can see, this is what I think would be the best description of area 51 in Fallout: New Vegas

Hardcore mode

Hardcore mode will be an optional setting added to Fallout: New Vegas. It will make the game more realistic with things such as dehydration and healing over time.
   
Normal Gameplay    
   Stimpaks work instantly.
   Ammo is weightless.
   No dehydration.

Hardcore Mode
        Stimpaks take time to work.
        Ammo has weight.
        The player has a dehydration meter which depletes over time, and must be replenished by drinking water.

This is gonna be interesting..

Holy shit! Looks awesome, this hardcore mode, it really adds something to the game :P

JESUS NEW FALLOUT! I can't wait for it to come out. The 2 games I'm waiting for the most are 'Mafia II' and this - 'Fallout New Vegas'. That's going to be so goddamned good.

3 words : Lots of potencial

Information from a 10-page Fallout: New Vegas preview in the German PC Games magazine, courtesy of Rootmars:
Opening sequence: Courier is executed with a headshot. No ambush.
Character look creation: Mitchell holds a mirror in front of your face "I hope I put you back together properly so you recognize yourself."
Character creation: G.O.A.T. is replaced with a psychoanalysis test.
Weapons: picture of a hunting rifle included. Available modifications are scope, larger magazine and a 3rd one for faster load between shots.
Weapons: picture of a normal and a unique 9mm Pistol. Shown mods: scope and magazine enlargement. One gun shown with both scope and enlarged magazine.
Weapons: The unique pistol has a unique skin, engravings and a picture of Virgin Mary on the grip. This could mean that every unique weapon has its own skin. "These rare guns not only look unique, but have unique properties."
Weapons: Concept art of a guy in the trenchoat from the teaser wielding a Fallout 3-style minigun (It's a little bit smaller though)
Goodsprings: When you leave the Powder Ganger Quest unsolved, you'll encounter them later when they are more powerful.
Goodsprings: You can convince Mayor Trudi to ambush the Powder Gangers with a sufficient sneak skill.
Some choices you make during the game reveal their consequences far later.
Some NPC companions will have their own quests too, not only Raul.
Radar: A new yellow bar for companions is added by Obsidian.
"Caps" are mentioned as currency, not poker chips or dollars.
Hint that weapon modifications can be found in the wastes. (May be speculation)
Some statements hint that the NCR and the Brotherhood of Steel somehow work together - you easily gain access to Helios 1 by having a good reputation with NCR and BOS
Dialogue with Fantastic in Helios 1 can be influenced with a high barter skill.
Game world will be as big as the one from Fallout 3.
Chris Avellone on game development: "We are currently working on the dialogues and places. The rest looks pretty good for now."

Thoughts anyone?

My thoughts :

You are killed and a doctor patchs you up to life: Cool
No G.O.A.T : Well it's OK with me, since we are no longer Vault fancy good shoes
Modifications to weapons: Needed feature
Choices and consequences : Good it's going to be there as always
NCR + BOS working together: Holy Alliance! Nice.. i bet later they will break apart and start a war > : D
Gaining rep with BOS and NCR: Earn up ranks in the BoS / NCR ???!!! or perhaps just quests
World bigger than Fallout 3 : More time playing the game, more exciting places to find

Game world will be as big as the one from Fallout 3.

I'm starting to have doubts if these vehicle claims are true.

[cDa]

maybe they will just replace fast travel option with vehicles

[TruthSvensson]

I hated subways at Fallout 3 i hope there won't be subways at Fallout: New Vegas

[Dave]

Game world will be as big as the one from Fallout 3.

That's bull! Fallout 3 was TINY compared to other Bethesda epics by FAR. Even Morrowind outdone it in size. FFS, Shivering Isles, you know, that huge expansion pack for Oblivion? That was probably as big as Fallout 3...
