This game is so satisfying, and runs at my full 60FPS on ultra, yay! (I think even the original FO3 was shoddy and low FPS in places!). Very fun exploring non-yellow places - mountains, nice caves, lots of places with water too...

Apart form looking nice though, it is very fun I've found. Got my compadre; and am finding the battles fun if sometimes mean - Deathclaws still kick my ass (as it should be! I wasn't even level 10) and the skills I'm using, perks I'm getting are all okay - I just meander along with some neat equipment slowly progressing - no major leaps like FO3 and no need to really REALLY plan ahead skills, since you get perks every other level so skill requirements are like "Oh, I'll get that soon, better level up that skill first" - my initial choice of skills helped early on but barely affect my current play - which is mainly based on my ammo or equipment to hand, aiming at all this cool energy stuff (including nice flamers).

Man the game just does so much more with exploration, just finding things (like some of the FO3 wasteland mind you, but better - it's not all just flat), and I've not even entered Las Vegas yet Looking forward to it! I'm so glad the plot isn't immediately "GO GO GO NO REASON JUST GO GO GO GO GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS VAULT GOOOOOO QUICK FIND YOUR DAD YOU ASS" or anything, I took most of my time just exploring the south Not even sure what I'm going to find in the big city...also not even found the Brotherhood yet, who I've heard are around. I want my power armour but man, a simple justification for me not using any yet is not finding any! In the original game you could find (but not wear) some in close to an hour from the start of the game!

Hardcore mode also is nice - companions can die, even though I die more often then not first, and so some of the companion perks help (meaning fights are more fair generally). Ammo having weight is a nice burden, although 3 of you helps somewhat. Eating and drinking are great to a degree too - while sleep doesn't come around seemingly often enough (chugging down the nuka colas) it gives you a nice reason to keep some of the more random foodstuffs, and not allow me to carry absolutely everything I can to sell. Not too annoying (and I don't bother crafting food really) but adds enough of an edge to keep it interesting.

Perhaps worth looking up FO3 itself/FO3 GOTY? - much cheaper and it's very much more of the same.

That's what I'm playing currently. Usually I like more straight FPS than RPG, but I like this very much (reminds me a lot of Stalker, but a bit heavier on RPG elements in regards of skill sets). A bit clumsy in regard of combat, but than again the enemy AI is not exactly too challenging either.
But if you consider this do yourself a favour and purchase the GOTY edition. The addon missions tie seamlessly into the main missions and - I think - you can go back and forth between them.

I again mention fallout wanderer's edition set to vanilla mode as a pretty great adjunct to f3. It makes supermutants tough enough that you don't want to fight them unless you really, really have to. And event hen you don't want to, because you probably won't get as much ammo as you expended trying to kill them.

Keep getting raped by cazador? waspy things. I guess this is the game telling me DO NOT GO THERE YET.

Yup, I'm about level 20 and I'm still getting fucked by those cunts. The hunter perk helps, but any more then 3 at a time and I just get bummed.

[Finaldeath]

Flamer man, makes them go all crispy or snipe them from afar with long ranged stuff; getting their wings makes them go all crazy and stuff.

At least they're more interesting then the FO3 stuff, which was mainly molerats or deathclaws, heh.

[Brahms]

Don't forget the fucking bears.

I remember my first encounter with one of those..

[claws]

Spent much of the evening butting up senselessly against invisible walls, and doing that weird combination of scrambling, turning and jumping that you have to do in these games to climb up stuff any steeper than /

Ranger station foxtrot I hate you

Fallout: New Vegas – Enter the Anthill

[Finaldeath]

I did read that earlier today. Funny, because I've rarely come across bugs, especially considering Bethesda's engine I should have encountered more. *shrugs*

Guess I'm lucky?

Ranger station foxtrot I hate you

I think I had to check the wiki on how to get there, that place is a bastard!

Also Final, the bugs get worse and worse as the game goes on I've found; it started out ok, just the odd wierd thing, but the more I'm playing it, the more I'm seeing.

[claws]

I mostly get crashes. Flying animals clipping into the ground and slowing the game to a crawl is a pain in the arse too, although at least it stops them killing me.

Still an awesome game though. Assuming some peoples have finished, what level were you?

[Hzza]

I just hit 29 and unlocked the option to go to the endgame so will definatly be 30 by the time I finish it.

PLAYTHROUGH 2 GO GO GO!

Don't spoil me, but is the ending less of a massive letdown than FO3 was?
