There's already a place like that in the game called oasis full with tree loving elves.

It really is. The designs are pretty unfaithful. They need to look at some cheesy sci-fi fifties flicks and facepalm themselves into oblivion.

Gauss rifle seems a bit... altered... too. Did the length of the barrel have that electric glow before?

It was already mentioned that the glow effect was unwarranted. Bethcocks can go fuck themselves.

Yeah, I don't know what the problem is with just copying and pasting the past from 2d to 3d. As long as it isn't excessive, it doesn't hurt

I'm drunk here so this might make no sense at all

at one point I heard "This is how BI would've done it if they would've had the techonology" or some such thing -

Let's see here - Bethesda cut the number of skills, made it an action FPS pseudo-RPG counterstrike look alike Elder Scrolls look alike PoS look alike - Then made a Halo map complete with no multiplayer....

Does anyone think Black Isle would've made an option for MP in Fo1, Fo2, or campaign for tactics if they would've 'had the technology'?

We have the technology. We can make it faster, stronger, better.
Also, the assmonkey you quoted can be ignored

What a joke. They turn Fallout into an fps shooter and now we can encounter the red army. This game sounds more and more like call of duty only shittier.

Why aquire the licens for a post apoc rpg and turn it into a modern time fps shooter? WHY?!

hopefully it'll show people just how crap the combat engine is.

Dogmeatlives wrote:As far as DLC goes, this is pretty shitty. It's not even an expansion onto the FO3 world, but just a mini-game inside the game. And who wants to bet that they had capabilities to put vehicles in before the game came out, but instead left it for the DLC.

And yet IGN, of course, fails to bring up the eerily close proximities with the DLC and original game. Its clear they were working on extra content while game was still in production.

I feel like ranting some more. Not many people really have a problem with all this shit but it bugs me, because it is obvious that these people are just scheming to pump high school kids out of their money. Obviously the most desired DLC would have to be the levelcap at this point, allowing one to more fully enjoy the game. Is it not entirely possible that the main character was killed off just so they could say "Hey, buy this and you can continue with the game!" Which actually just repairs a numb skull move made by Bethesda in the first place.

And people eat it rght up!! If you go to ign, you will find tons of comments about how much these fucktards love Bethesda! Love?!? Bethesda?!?! Can one truly love a corporation run by greedy fucktards? I guess one must lack the initial common sense. Ok, so it isn't even like they do away with the level cap on the first DLC to give the gamers a break in these difficult financial times. NOO!! That would be too ethical. What they will do is release two mediocre DLC packs, and then a final, really awesome one that repairs all the shitty design flaws the made in the first place, and then they will make all of them mandatory.

So you have to get the first OK ones in order to get the final awesome one. MArk my words, the first two DLCs will be recieved by fans in a so-so way when they come out. Bethesda is saving all the really good stuff for the end so they can maximize profit.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts about DLC. I'm surprised nobody's going up against that shit; instead everybody seems to think it's great and they're buying it. It's like MMO just got into your singleplayer games : you have to continue throwing money through the windows in order to fully enjoy your game.

The thing that really bugs me the most is the fact that more and more the devs don't even bother hiding the fact they worked on the DLC during the actual game's development cycle.

I mean, we used to get expansion packs for singleplayer games, but at least a year later. In this case, the game wasn't even out and they were already talking about the DLC. It's been less two months Fallout 3 has been released!

They seriously want PC gamers to pay for that shit? Suckering in 360 gamers makes sense, but I doubt any PC person would even consider buying it.

Yeah, usually retards are pretty cool, but when they dictate industry, you've got a problem.

DLC = episodic content. Like it was said before, quite the failure that refuses to die.

well most people who own fallout3 and love it never played the first two fallouts and then they pick up FO3 and say hey this looks fun but in truth most people who play FO3 do not understand the concept of a realistic nuclear RPG and they are suckered in to download or buy the expansions but only thing promising is the Guass rifle but from that it just looks lke a very long mission in fallout 3
