Tale Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) Now I'm curious as to who "he" is. Edited October 19, 2010 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Calax Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I donno, maybe if you post screenies of everyone around I can point you at "him" :D Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Gfted1 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Heya Calax, The following was sent to me by Chris and with his permision, here is his reply! Hey, Fionavar, Bethesda gave permission, please tell him "he" is outside a town called Nipton in the SW region of the map, and he's going to be difficult to miss along the critical path of the game. Please ask him to keep it hush-hush until the day of release, however. Chris with respect, F Just thought I'd toss that out there. *highfive* Congrats! "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Bendu Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) I'm not sure. Did we have that review already? Videogamer: 9/10 Edited October 19, 2010 by Bendu

Enoch Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I think it's part of his prize for winning the fanfic contest.
Lexx Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I don't want to know what "he" is, but what the question was. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
taviow Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) Didn't leave Goodsprings yet, did the Ringo quest with the battle in the end, however the game stuttered BADLY during that battle, which is pretty sad, especially considering it was just about 10 NPCs together at that time. Worries me. I have a 8800gt, surely it was supposed to be running better than this? Other than that it's great. I really like it so far. Playing on Very Hard + Hardcore.

Try to turn the water multisampling down.

WorstUsernameEver Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Just read my digital copy of All Roads. Nice. Super tiny spoiler: weren't horses extinct in the Fallout universe?
Calax Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) I think it's part of his prize for winning the fanfic contest.There was a fanfic contest? There was. I'd have to dig it up in the WOT board, but basically there were two contests, one was a caption contest, the other was a fanfic competition. Everyone's favorite hentai-loving kitty won the caption contest, I won the fic contest. Prizes were a shirt, signed copy of Storm of Zehir, and then I got to have my name inserted in game (which is the "he" being referred to here). Found the final thread http://forums.obsidian.net/index.php?showtopic=51855 Edited October 19, 2010 by Calax Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Gfted1 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Also, "2" can't be used as a hotkey for weapons, can't for the life of me figure out why. Am I missing something really? Per the manual linked above: Hotkeys In the inventory menu, define hotkeys by holding one of the number keys (except the 2 key, which is used to switch ammo types)...

Per the manual linked above: Hotkeys In the inventory menu, define hotkeys by holding one of the number keys (except the 2 key, which is used to switch ammo types)... Oh, thanks. I wish it was "1", though. Would have made been better imo. Also I just figured out the game performs exactly the same here (20-30fps, single digit during larger battles) with or without AA at 4x. Delightful. Also, water multisampling on low didn't really do anything. Edited October 19, 2010 by taviow
Gorgon Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) You couldn't remap the most useful keys in FO3 either, like the pipboy and such. Well you could, but it would revert after loading a game. I recommend a gaming mouse with lots of buttons you can assign to any key you like. You would think full functionality of key remapping would be the worlds easiest job for the coders (not that I really know anything about it). Lots of games these days are just lazy about it.

pmp10 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Gamespot commented on the game in their podcast. Apparently it
C2B Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Was it really that hard to top benthesda in storytelling?For me the plot was the most important selling-point. Most other reviewers praise the storytelling including Daniel Vavra. Lead Writer of Mafia 1+2 And the ones that don't praise it speak about FO3 as if it was a philosopical masterpiece.
Thorton_AP Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Just did tutorial stuff (at lunch while at work). So far I likey!
Syraxis Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) After playing for 2 1/2 hrs (had to stop, at class): FNV is better than FO3 in every way imaginable. Take notes, Bethesda. Edited October 19, 2010 by Syraxis
Tale Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Take notes, Bethesda. I swear I read an interview where they stated they were doing just that, learning a lot from Obsidian. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Sannom Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) A guy on a french forum just reported a weird bug on the PC version : apparently, the quicksaves and autosaves are erased after he exits the game, even if he makes a 'clean' exit. Nobody else got that problem? EDIT : no relation, but he also says that Bethesda should put a lot more effort into the localization of its games. There is no coherency, the meaning of the sentences is sometimes inversed, and there are parts of the time entirely in german (yeah, that one is random). I swear I read an interview where they stated they were doing just that, learning a lot from Obsidian. Obsidian probably learned a lot too with that project (completely open-world game? Bethesda surely helped with that!) from Bethesda, so I wouldn't be surprised if it went also the opposite way. Edited October 19, 2010 by Sannom
Tale Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've heard it's related to the Steam cloud. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
C2B Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I've heard it's related to the Steam cloud. Steam Cloud and Nvidia Driver issues. Anyone up for some more conspiracy disscusion
