What kind of game should I be expecting? 3 was fun in it's own way, but Fallout 2 blows it out of the water (haven't played NV). 2 takes some work to get into though, and it's an older game. If you don't have the patience then you won't appreciate F2 for what it really is. My recommendation would be to get the Fallout 3 GOTY edition for cheap during this steam summer sale, then if you like it, go for NV. If you want Fallout 2, get it from GOG.com. It's on sale for $3 until tomorrow. | ||

Just the few i recommend are "A world of pain", "Mo mod", "Mission mojave" and Project nevada. Really adds some depth, difficulty and variety to the game, tons of new areas and content to explore while getting your ass handed to you. The HD packages etc also are a musthave, but thats a given! :D | ||

These are my mods: + Show Spoiler + I never really got into Skyrim for some reason, and I think that FNV F3 and Oblivion are just better. edit: Also I plan on starting a new game on Fallout 3, this time with mods =) | ||

Im really enjoying the progression and im only level 5. I went for a laser sort of build. Been trying to do some research but I only got the game with no dlc's or mods so its hard to follow what other people are talking about. Any recommended a site to do research on builds n sich ? I wanted to go for some sort of laser rifle/flamethrower build with heavy armor but the walking is killing me sometimes since i only but 4 into agility I have the " big iron on his hip" song stuck in my head and i think its pretty funny lol Mods are 100% free. Get your mods here. You don't really need a build, but my favorite is the 1 charisma build. Basically get 1 point in Charisma (It only affects followers damage.) so you can increase your important stats. Some mild spoilers for better stats: + Show Spoiler + You get "Implants" at a clinic near New Vegas. Their is one for every SPECIAL stat, and two special ones: One provides slow health regen, the other increases your DR if I recall correctly. Be sure to get the perk that gives you an extra special point (Forget the name, extreme training or something) as your first perk. As your second (If you can, can't really remember the level.) get "Comprehension" I believe it is called. Get Educated as soon as you can too. If you have DLC (I only got Old world blues) then you get some extra stuff. Old World Blues adds in more traits, best one is "skilled" (+5 to all skills, -10% to xp growth) and the ability to craft one of each skill book. Lonesome road gives you another special point. I am probably forgetting a ton of things, but here is a list of which starting stats I believe are best: 6 Strength 4 Perception 6 Endurance 1 Charisma 9 intelligence 5 agility 5 luck This isn't what I choose though, but it should still be very good. Early the game you get a follower, Eddie, but spelled odd. His special perk is that you get 10 perception if he is following you. 9 Intelligence is because that is how you get skill points. You can get 10 if you buy the implant. Don't lower luck, or playing the slots at NV will be a nightmare. (Best way to get caps, hands down, and Implants are expensive, so this is the only reliable way to get that many quickly.) I probably forgot a ton of stuff, but oh well, hope that this helps you. | ||

Ive been looking for a game that keeps me wanting more after 2-3 hours and earlier this morning I put about 5 easily.I have a feeling ill be playing this a second time around which is rare for rpgs for me. What builds did everyone have the most fun? I wanted to do a sneaky/dagger type but was unsure of how hard it would be but im having lots of fun so thats what counts right ?Maybe i can save it for the 2nd time around and become a legion :D. I still havent even decided if I want to be good or bad but I have a feeling I'm going to need to make up my mind soon >.< Edit:It seems i have a lot of research to do for the mods, oh and I didnt get the training perk because I thought it would be better to get the 10+xp one as i thought it would pay off in the long run | ||

I did enjoy Fo3 much more than NV though. The atmosphere in that game still gives me chills. I love how every single location on the map had a little story. Dunswich building had that creepy side story with Pointlook out and the cursed book for example. Walking through the DC ruins is incredibly creepy fighting wave after wave of super mutants around the capital building. Three Dog also had much more personality than Mr. New Vegas.It felt way more organic too you would find many small settlements with distinct personalities. Megaton vs. the Republic of Dave vs. Bigtown/Lamplight it felt like every new city had some crazy background and some secrets it was hiding. NV had so many useless marks on the map like one quarry without the Death Claws I was looking for a building to enter or anything that would make it more than just useless filler but thats all it was. It was also to "post apocalypse" for my tastes. Walking into the Strip for the first time was like HOLY SHITTTTTT but after that it was just cheesy the level of desperation you could almost taste in the Capital Wasteland was gone. The settlements were too sturdy and safe for my liking. One thing I wonder about the next games is what they will do about society rebuilding. Eventually it would just be a standard dystopia once they rebuild enough and at that point it really isn't a Fallout game any more. | ||
