There's No Such Thing as a Cooler RPGFPS!

Yip, enemies run in VATS too. Their attack damage is lowered, and their running time is slower than yours, so the only factual effect is that they aim at body parts in what comes down to RTwP play.

Which boils down to the fact that you can sustain targeted damage, just like you could, albeit rarely, in the original games. That's good, but that's all there is to it.

He quoted this part:
"whilst you target certain parts of your enemies’ bodies and they do the same to you."

Yes, that part is correct.
No, it does not mean the game runs in turn-based.

What'd I misunderstand?

Maybe it was me who misunderstood you. You said enemies run in VATS (which they do) but it's a bit tricky to understand as it can read in two different ways: enemies run in vats and they are slower (as you said) and enemies use vats as well. Both are correct (because enemies also target specific parts of our body) but I somehow got the feeling you were replying as if he was talking about the first issue, while I thought he was referring to the second... Don't know I got my point through...

Hello all,

Seeing as these days its all about taking game favorites and classics into bold new directions me and a friend also have been discussing what kind of direction one of today's favorites; Grand Theft Auto, should go.

Though the game appeals to the action and sandbox crowd I feel that the the turn based strategy crowd is being ignored, a group of potential buyers, therefore I insist that the next Grand Theft Auto sequel becomes a turn based strategy game or have such elements in it.

Also in a way the game is very limited, generally just one city, but instead of just taking it a step further and include other cities why not take it a very bold step forwards; the player should be able to go into space and to other planets!
As long as it includes GTA elements the fans won't complain.

And how about time travel? Wouldn't it be exciting to go back in time and pimp up a horse cart?

And while we are at it, we are now also ignoring the fantasy fans so lets bring in magic, and lets not forget the sci-fi fans so we will also bring in a load of robots, and to make it extreme we're going to combine the idea; magical robots, and to fit the GTA theme; the magical robot mafia!

Last to make the game really epic, we need a villain with status, so how about a warlock was was defeated thousands of years ago by a band of heroes but who know has returned to spread darkness throughout the world, and the player is the only one who can beat him.

Here you have it, the next ultra extreme, appeal to all, Grand Theft Auto that will blow gamers away because it breaks with the old and tired gameplay and goes into exciting new directions; a turn based game in which the player must take on the magical robot mafia while being to go into space and back in time with the final goal being to defeat the evil resurrected warlock who wants to destroy the world.

Trust me, game reviewers will be all over it, and the developers will say that this is the way the original GTA developers had the game in mind but could not realise because of the technical limitations at the time.

Edit: not meant against the GTA fans on this board.

WOW, IT'S COMPLETELY DOWN TO EARTH AND REALISTIC YET COMPLETELY OFF THE WALL AND SWARMING WITH MAGIC ROBOTS!

10,000,000/10! A+++ WOOOOOOO! [/brain damage]
 
WOW! Yet another preview that doens't add ANYTHING new. Just a (poorly) rewritten article about previously known information. Spiced up with a bit of clue-lessness. :roll:
 
Bethsoft is bastardizing Fallout the same way 2k Games and/or Firefly Studios is bastardizing the Civilization game for the console crowd. Have you read any previews? Fuck. One who spent, and still spends, hours and hours playing this game will be so ashamed to even consider this.
 
Didn't we read someplace that Bethesda was flying in people (game magazines) from Asia-Pacific to review the game? If so, perhaps this fellow was flown in to Washington, given the nice tour, saw the demo, and then got stroked?

Don't get me wrong. I am not excusing the review, just trying to understand what's behind this kind of nonsense.

I see. Now let's derail this thread some more, anything is better than mulling over those Aussie antics.

Yes and imagine the graphical and retina burning splendor of spells such as "Atomic Detonation".

By talking to NPCs, shaking their hands, heck, just by looking at them they will explode in the most realistic atomic explosions to grace the screen.
And you will love it!
Because if you are not you are not a real GTA fan, all the new GTA fans will tell you so.

I'm already pre-ordering the deluxe mega editon that comes with a "real" magical robot arm and "life-size" map of the universe! I DO THIS BECAUSE I AM A REAL FAN AND AS THUS I WILL PAY ANYTHING FOR A GAME THAT HAS THE SAME NAME AS A SERIES I PREVIOUSLY ENJOYED!

Wow, yelling that out loud makes me feel slightly better...

Just slightly.

*real denotes it's ability to fire sparks and small chocolate candies.
* life-size denotes that it was unable to fit in the special metal box and was thus replaced with a map to your nearest McDonalds instead, I'm loving it!
 
The Vault-tec Assisted Targeting System pauses the game in combat, whilst you target certain parts of your enemies’ bodies and they do the same to you.

hmm... quite simplified description of VATS, if he is right VATS is just turn base with pause.

The greatest foes in the Fallout series were the mutants, the survivors who had been stuck outside the vaults during the world-obliterating war and who weren’t so friendly to their non-deformed brethren.

There it is ladies and gentlemen, gaming journalism at its best. Hey I know, lets get the most ignorant writter out there and send them to cover a topic that they never heard of or shown and interest before, and so happen that topic(game), has the most outspoken fan base on earth, and when he finish it, lets not check or edit it, and just post the article.

Worse even than them were the super-mutants - enormous lumps of muscle led by an über-super-mutant called the Master.

Oh Gawd, can this nightmore stop? First super zombies, now uber-super-mutants called the Master. Why is this guy writing this stuff?

The best way anyone has worked out of killing them is a bodged-up Nuclear Catapult!

Sad isn't it? I guess if there will ever be Fallout:4 and it is made by old Beth, then I guess the next uber weapon would be Nuklear Minigun. Then Fallout:5 would be super nova launcher. Fallout:6 would be Big bang grenade. I mean, why stop with NUKULUR KATAPUTzzz?
