TheKhoz:
Yesterday, I relized someone could basically make Fallout New Vegas as a mod for Fallout 3. With the G.E.C.K. Lol
DracoSoul:
The ending is only a ploy for dlc. Hopefully the first released dlc.

Best be trollin' nigguh
New Vegas improves over literally everything that I and basically everyone else I've talked to hate about 3. The crafting is actually crafting (though it could easily be better) rather than there being like five things to make, there's more than just one of each weapon in each repair category, stuff is actually DANGEROUS, plus hardcore mode.
There's still a stuffload of room for improvement but as far as I'm concerned, New Vegas is the third Fallout game and Fallout 3 is copyright infringement.
In fact the only thing in New Vegas that I can directly complain about is that Bethesda is still relying on the community to make a script extender rather than fixing their damn scripting engine.
I mean when you go "Okay I'll go make _____" and the first thing you've ever wanted to make is impossible due to there not being related hooks for it, something's up.
FYI it wasn't even something ridiculous - I just wanted to make an armor repair kit that works like the weapon repair kit, but that proved to be impossible because there's no functions to get/set equipped armor condition while there is for weapons.
The way I implemented it is ridiculously hacky (not saying that the weapon repair kit isn't, why doesn't it just show up as an option when repairing a weapon?) and if I'm right about how these things work, it'll make my mod incompatible with anything that modifies any armor repair lists unless you're using a list merging tool. Most people use these but I generally don't like to use tools to install/manage my mods, I just install the things I want and I do it by hand.

FO3 is a disgrace to Fallout 2.
