I think over time yes.
It happens when the cells reset.

This never happened in Fallout 3 or oblivion. Once in oblivion I dropped a bunch of weapons on the floor in the forest and then I randomly found it again weeks ago.

Then perhaps the forest isn't a cell that resets. Odd.
Unfortunately in Fallout games, things that you don't need are hard to come by.

What do you mean by cell?

What I am talking about is literally dropping the item with right mouse click.

The game world outside a city's wall is, technically, a cell.
Odd that it doesn't reset.

I know items unpicked from un named NPCs will reset.

Actually, the world is broken up into multiple cells, each is x meters long.
Not sure how long exactly.

It takes a few in game days for a cell to reset, but it only resets if you spent all of those days outside of the cell.

Then all the stuff I leave on the ground in my megaton house would of been gone. Same for all my oblivion houses.

If New Vegas truly uses the same engine as those two I doubt this.

Fallout 3 IMO. New Vegas, if anything, feels more like a child's game because of the vibrant colors. Fallout 3 is exactly how I would expect the land to look after a nuclear war: barren, grey, and irradiated.

Player houses never reset

I believe there are other 'safe' zones as well

From the looks of it New Vegas seems to be more sleazy and violent. The raiders in fallout 3 wouldn't stand a chance to the legion. Oh and there is love everywhere and crazy creepy people, where is the love and crazy people in Fallout 3? It's almost as if no one wants to have love in Fallout 3.

Oh and the best thing of all New Vegas has more unique voices over generic copies. Even raiders have different voices.

It took about 200 years after the big war just to get to where they are now and they haven't even got that far. I guess mankind is not suppose to progress even after 200 years, right?

Bump to say this.

Has anyone noticed that each person with a name has their own unique voice? In Fallout 3 you will most likely find people that have the same voice as everyone else reguardless of their name.

They even gave the unnamed NPCs more than one voice sets so it doesn't seem like everyone has the same voice.

That's why I like New Vegas more.

Voices never met much to me. Really, I wouldn't care if there was a single voice actor for the entire game.
Actually I'd prefer it because it would be hilarious.

I normally skip through conversations because I skim through the text at the bottom and get the jist of the info.

You mean like the brash Irish banter of "Colin Moriarty" as opposed to the average American speech of "Megaton Settler"?

Fallout 3:
>Go to megaton
>Blow it up assuming there will be more towns
>There arent
>Game is ruined
