I have to agree with everything Colonel Mustard has said. The bugs really were minor I've found, and I've rarely come across any big ones; but the patch they did do fix them was spendid.

The DLC are incredible. It really is great value for money smile.gif

Steam glitch problems, huh? Well, I feel for you son. I've got ninety nine problems, but a glitch ain't one.

I've heard the GOTY version is very buggy though... huh.gif ...Something about framerate problems...

It may be worth getting an old vanilla version and then getting the DLC on top...Other than the PS3 freeze thing after a good couple of hours of playing...I've never really had a problem...And like I said eleswhere, I've not played it intensively since 2011, so the later updates may have cured all that...

In other news...

Pffft...

You people...And yer...Yer...Words...And distracting...

I had a plan!!...And...Kinda...Sort of a schedule!!...And now...Pffft...

*Points*...If I wasn't so fond of you all!!...Aaaaargh!!... dry.gif ...

No, I believe what he's saying is that he won't buy the game because of Steam.

I wish they'd put the SKS in a Fallout game. There are just so many mod options for the SKS that it'd be a great weapon to include.

Plus it'd add to the short list of semi automatic rifles in Fallout.

Is this a mod I see before me?

I'm stuck on the 360 unfortunately. I wish they'd add an SKS to a future game and allow it to be modified in game to take it from this:

Just thought I'd voice my love for the Gun Runner's Arsenal weapon pack. Adds a bunch of fun new stuff to play around with. In general I actually enjoyed all of the new weapons/armor from all the DLC but for the price of the GRA pack it is a pretty good deal that can give a breath of life to the game.

I agree. I think GRA brings a lot to the table. I especially like the weapon mods it adds.

Oh and the interesting new ammo types, I forgot to mention that.

I especially like the timed grenades, mirv style mini nukes, explosive .50 cal, and the dragon's breath 12 guage ammo.
Colonel Mustard
The Gun Runner's Arsenal gave me Pacencia. I dropped 17,000 caps on that weapon and it's worth every penny, and I loved that DLC for Pacencia alone.

And the 12-Gauge Dragon's Breath shells are absurd amounts of fun; after all, they combine two of my favourite things, fire and shotguns, so what's not to love?
Kiln
I guess nobody else is still appreciating Fallout NV? Oh well.

I still play it occasionally but after investing somewhere around 350 hours or so into multiple characters, there just isn't anything to do but farm bad guys for caps, of which I have more than I could ever spend.

My favorite thing to do now is to go to Vault 3 with a stealth boy and lay down enough C4 to kill all of the fiends there at once and watch all of the body parts fly through the air while high off of Turbo.

New Vegas was a lot of fun but since there isn't going to be any more DLC and I've conquered everything the game has to offer, I've basically stopped playing it.

With my last character I collected every unique item in the game (weapons, armor, and misc items) and stashed them neatly in separate containers at the Lucky 38. I even used the Wiki with this one so I know for a fact I've hunted them all down.

Why? Canīt you run around and live your life like in Fallout 3, Oblivion and the likes? I ran out of really fun things to do in Fallout (exploring, that is) a long time ago but I still think itīs entertaining to run around, collecting ammo and caps until I have enough to buy the whole goddamn wasteland biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Nah, itīs all good. Iīm always on the lookout for unique items in FO3 but I havenīt resorted to the wiki. Iīd like to stumble upon them and those I donīt find, well I guess Iīm not worthy to find them then laugh.gif

Funny enough, Iīve never hunted for unique items in Oblivion. Not once. In Fallout 3 though itīs my main quest besides amassing caps and ammo. I canīt help it, I love finding them in FO3 happy.gif

Well I usually sink several hundred hours into the game before I resort to the wiki. Basically when I go to the wiki to check for unique stuff I only actually have to find 2-3 things because I've scrounged nearly everything there is to find but missed a cave or building somewhere...or I just walked right by it and didn't notice. embarrased.gif

Well I've officially accumulated two million caps (no glitching) and explored everything there is to explore in NV. It is a very fun game but I've pretty much exhausted the possibilities for entertainment at this point.

A simple thread where people can post what they love about New Vegas!

Fond memories?

Current play through stories?

Funny anecdotes?



The only thing that sux is that there is no vehicles by default... you gotta get you some mods to get bikes nd stuff biggrin.gif

But its an awesome game as always smile.gif

Ahhhh.... what I would have LOVED for some vehicles in the game tongue.gif I'm not sure about lore and stuff but I think the war left vehicles unusable, hence why there aren't any (I don't know)

Maybe Fallout 4 will give us some kind of vehicle option. Would be cool.
Colonel Mustard
Either vehicles would be cool (all you'd need to do is hook up a fission battery to a motor or something to make it work*), or horses; wearing power armour and rocking a laser rifle on the back of a cyber-horse like the Man With No Name of the nightmarish future is too damn an idea to not happen. Plus you could play 'Wanted Dead or Alive' as background music and you would be a cowboy on a literal steel horse!!
