Yeah I'm a bit confused wrt this graphics criticism. Far Cry 2 is being given as an example frequently, its just got the AA and the bloom turned way up. Handy effects to have to blur and hide whats underneath. Its physics engine is arguably more impressive with leaves blowing and branches...

'Hoof' Come on folks, does anyone atleast know why this happens? It seems its basically the same issue as the Cathedral level 3 loading bug if that helps. Was it ever established what caused that? Was it the 'carrying too many items bug' and if so do you simpily not carry as much to avoid...

lol! You can get dogmeat to follow you around!? Was that a possibility in Vanilla Fo2 or is it a Restoration project thing?

The potential is there, I mean there is no denying the fact that Beth's engine could be used to make a fantastic Fallout game. They just managed to forget about the depth, humour and human element that characterised Fo3's predeccessors. Some guy on the Bethesda forums put it perfectly...

Or maybe he just pre-recorded the broadcast like many DJ's do? :P

Aye this is one of the most glaring faults. You can partly attribute it to the fact that Fo3 is a snapshot of one area, rather than the entire Western seaboard. I mean the first two games had so many towns because it covered a vast landmass, Fo3, while being enourmous is on a much smaller scale...

Well atleast we can agree on that. I can't bear to play Oblivion without OOO, MMM, Francescos and FCOM installed. I've been using Oscuros Oblivion Overhaul since it was released in 2006 as it basically turns it into a different game in a very subtle fashion. Soto really did save Bethesda'...

Yeah, I guess that must be it tbh. Damn sure I didn't but meh, it is late at night.

edit: Problem solved, lock if you need too.

Sent, cheers in advance for whatever you're planning on doing. :)

Exactly the same problem in exactly the same place with exactly the same patch installed. Anyone?

It's basically Oblivion, vast openworld sandbox full of things to discover is actually an enourmous void full of emotionless encounters. It's still worth playing in its own right and is more fun than Oblivion was on release but in no way does it do its name credit. I think the modders will...

I find myself sharing the sentiments of most of the veterans here although I can agree with Freudians observations too. He speaks the truth none of us particuarly want to hear. I was one of the rabid minority that berated Bethesda on their forums for turning Morrowind into Oblivion. Many of...

The game is already very easy and VATS only makes it easier. It's actually quite difficult to die which isn't exactly consistent with the first two games. In short, VATS doesn't suit an FPS. The game would be more fun if they'd spent time making it a comparable FPS experience to HL/Stalker...

Short review of PC version. [spoiler:549704c273] If anyones bothered, I've been a silent observer of this website for many years although I've not had reason to post until now. I bought Fallout 2 about 6 months after release and then Fallout roughly a week later. I've played both games...
