thepixiesrock Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Yeah I'm playing it right now, it's really fun so far. It's hard to say much about it really until I've finished it since I've only put in an hour or two.

Malcador Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I have tried a few fan made mods with VO and every single one of them except ONE had so bad voice acting I honestly couldn't play them. My recommendation, forget it. The mere idea of fan VAs scares me to no end. Then again, people make all kinds of worrying mods for Bethesda's games. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepixiesrock Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Dead Money not the main game I mean.

cronicler Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I've been fiddling with the game mechanics a lot and I found a few nice tidbits that provide some nice gameplay changes; -You can assign multiple skills to any item but normally only 1 governs an attribute (decay rate, damage, spread etc). However you can force 2 skills to the same pool by adding a little bit of chooser code to the beginning. Example: Use Meele or Survial (whichever is higher) for combat knife. Use rifles or Close combat for certain shotguns (my modpile in progress) -adding a couple of new explosives to the crafting list (pipe bomb(fuse), satchel charge (fuse,remote, prox), claymore (remote,prox), Molotov coctail) makes the explosives skill a viable choice for front line combat.

GreasyDogMeat Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Ok, I've got my 800 MS points for dead money. Thing is, XBLA is having a 'secret sale' leading up to new years where every day they unveil a deal on a game. Am I going to hate myself in a couple of days if Dead Money ends up being one of the games on sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tale Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Brand new releases almost never get sales. With the exception of how Best Buy marks down movies for the first couple of weeks.

GreasyDogMeat Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Brand new releases almost never get sales. With the exception of how Best Buy marks down movies for the first couple of weeks. Normally this is true, but a number of the deals look like fairly new releases, like Undead Nightmare. They probably wouldn't give a price reduction to Dead Money a couple of days after release though... they better not anyway! All right... will download...

thepixiesrock Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Wait when did Undead Nightmare go on sale and for how much?

GreasyDogMeat Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Wait when did Undead Nightmare go on sale and for how much? Its on sale for 600 ms points instead of 800. The other two Red Dead add-ons are on sale for half price at 400 ms points. Its todays sale and I don't know if it is today ONLY or if these daily sales add up.

Gorgon Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Why the need for the virtual money. Tax evation ?. I remember I had to buy some for Dragon Age to unlock a DLC, ended up having 50 to spare which I will never be able to use since I'm on a PC. It seems completely pointless. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreasyDogMeat Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 (edited) Why the need for the virtual money. Tax evation ?. I remember I had to buy some for Dragon Age to unlock a DLC, ended up having 50 to spare which I will never be able to use since I'm on a PC. It seems completely pointless. I don't know but I fricken' hate it. Every time I want to buy something over XBLA I have to do a conversion. 80 points = $1 (Would make more sense to just have a dollar = 100 points if they don't want to use a monetary system) 400 points = $5 Undead Nightmare @ 600 points = $7.50 etc. You can go to a store and buy cards that give you a code that you then implement to get your money's worth of points. Minimum being $20 dollars (1600 MS Points) or you can use a credit card to buy points. I've avoided this as I've heard that hackers might get hold of your card # so I just buy the cards in stores.

Labadal Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I forgot to mention that someone at Microsoft really messed up yesterday. This has now been fixed. What happened was that the DLC was put up for free and many gamers downloaded it. I saw it myself, but it didn't help me, because I do not own the Xbox version.

I'm really enjoying Dead Money so far. It has the most interesting Super Mutant in any Fallout to date and I'm interested in discovering this resort's secrets. I'm especially interested in finding out what the deal is with Christine. I've finished gathering the team but I'm a bit too tired to continue any further tonight.

Lexx Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 (edited) I've figured that Fallout: New Vegas modding is pretty much like Fallout 2 modding, when it comes to feedback. In most cases, you only get feedback, if your mod has somehow to do with clothes or boobs or both.

Tigranes Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 That's how the modding world is. I've installed it now, but haven't started my new playthrough yet, hoping to time it so I can play Dead Money on that one.
