Fallout: New Vegas E3 previews

[alec]

Shut up guys Fallout 2 is an expansion.

Well, all I know is that Fallout Tactics was definitely a spin-off of the original Fallout game which already had an expansion. And what's more: it almost gave birth to an expansion of a spin-off of the original game which already had aforementioned expansion.

Phew. Thank God that didn't happen. I mean: seriously. Phew.

 

[Kerr-Plomb]

Well, people just say this, because the graphic doesn't look totally different. Graphic whores, everyone. :>

Exactly.

And really, in the end I don't care if it's a 10€ sequel or a 60€ expansion, or whatever it is called then. If I get content worth the price I'm happy.

NV to FO3 is what FO2 is to FO1.

Same engine, shitloads of new content and improvements.

example of what FO2 improved over FO1 - the NPC follower interaction.

Same thing here.

I would call both NV and FO2 expandalones.

It already looks miles better than Fallout 3. Fuck, even the backstory sounds better than the plot of Fallout 3. Find your daddy, fight enemies you already fought last game, and give free water or kill people with water vs. two warring factions with morally grey motivations and their interactions with eachother and an independent party in Vegas itself.

Not to mention they're bringing back a lot of stuff from 1 and 2. Hey, Bethesda! What's your excuse? You had more time to develop your game, and yet these Obsidian guys are adding way more stuff than you.

In all fairness Bethesda had a huge world to create too.Being that NV looks just like FO3 ,i expected nothing more. With that said ,Alpha Protocol is a (except the rpg part) broken mess! I'm happy they didn't the build the game from scratch .

Er...and Obsidian hadn't?

I think he means it more concerning textures, props, items, npcs and so on.

I think something's wrong with your quote button, Cunning. It's showing up weird.

Anyway, I'll see you guys at 5:20 PM at the IGN demo, which should be 20 or so minutes long.

Is IGN really having a live 20min demo in an hour?

OH ign is the same as the youtube channel. Well it's 5:20 pst so around 8:20 est and god knows in engloid and beyond

Yes, but that's not stuff that concerns the designers.

 

[Eyenixon]

I'm pretty sure it is considering it's necessary to have all that stuff to put into the world in the first place.

Sure, but it's not like a designer can't think of gameplay mechanics because the graphic for Megaton wasn't ready, isn't it?

They are showing Brink now, so New Vegas is in 3 hours. Or something like that.

 

[Crni Vuk]

Oh sorry guys. Lemme be more specific. If it looks exactly like the last game and is made by the same dev or a dev with permission from the original dev, then it's an expansion.

epic

As far as I saw now, the IGN presentation will be like 8 or 10 minutes long. Rest of the time will be some other stuff... So I'll say the "20 minutes preview length" is bullshit. :>

yeah, I've been watching the IGN channel on Youtube on and off since last night and there's lots of random stuff thrown in between the previews. it's likely not gonna last from the scheduled time until the next item on the schedule.

they just previewed Hunted: The Demon's Forge btw. only caught the end of it, but it looked somewhat entertaining. for a dungeon crawler.

 

[OakTable]

I'm confused. The IGN live feed is showing what happened Tuesday. Get your shit together, IGN.

 

[Lexx]

Yeah, I am waiting too. Checking it out since hours and now they show something else.


I hate E3. Bleh. Should go to bed instead...

IGN apparently does not know what livestream is.

 

[Lexx]

And again, no New Vegas. I am too lazy to wait now any minute longer... some day, there might show up something on YouTube, for now I don't care anymore.

NMA you've done it to me agaiaaaaaiiinnn
