I always pick up cigarette packs and cartons, they don't way much and sell for a good enough amount. And since this thread is almost 100 pages it doesn't really matter if we go a little off topic. |

Fallout: New Vegas should be called Fallout 3. Fallout 3 does not even follow remotely close to the original Fallout storyline. |

I makes more sense for it to be an East coast setting anyway. Considering that's where the capitol is, it's also where the capital is. |

It shows that the United States are not as humble as a superpower as they should be. My God, just setting it in the United States Capital makes it a deep statement against nationalism! :O In other news, I have in front of my character a metal box. While containers of this nature seldom have inside them more than mundane odds and ends, this box in particular is locked with an average lock. Curious. Let's see what we have here... ...Six pulse grenades. Perfectly useless. I find myself rather ashamed at my own curiosity. I have found a note left for one "Bob" by his colleague "Frank" in a functional terminal in an adjacent cubicle explaining our rather uncanny receptacle. It seems the pulse grenades were left there by a paranoid worker("Frank") wishing for protection against the various remote turrets scattered across the facility. As the federal government suspended worker's compensation as a part of the war effort, our prosaically-denominated proletarian could not afford a turret coming unhinged and brutalizing his person, an occupation at which turrets are more than adequate. Frank also wishes for Bob to stop lobbing staples into his cubicle. A sensible desire, considering Frank adds that he enjoys doffing his shoes during the day. |

Here is a big wall of comparisons. In the first game you are exile from the Vault because the overseer was loyal to the Enclave plan and was afraid that everyone would leave. In Fallout 3 you are exiled because people will get "angry" if you stay. In Fallout 1 you are hunting for a Waterchip to save your vault, and Fallout 2 a Geck to save your Village from a Famine. In Fallout 3 you are buisy looking for your father and Geck to make a river drinkable. In Fallout 2 the Enclave wanted to load a modified version of FEV into their planes and fly over the wasteland spraying it all over in hopes of killing anything mutated to recolonize. In Fallout 3 the Enclave some how ends up on the East Coast with a computer and a general with plans to put a vial with the same virus into the water to kill everything just because. In Fallout 1 Super Mutants are a mix of dumb and intelligent sterile people who worship a man who wants to make the world equal for everyone. In Fallout 3 super mutants are giant yellow uniloveual sterile freaks with guns that want to expand their numbers and kill everything. In Fallout 1 the Regulators were corrupt gaurds who claimed they were protectors, but brought terror to the citizens they protected. In Fallout 3 they are good guys who pay you bottle caps for fingers who bad guys. If anything Fallout 3 gave people slightly more info on the back story of life before the war. I will admit it gave a slight fresh breath of air on the series, but way to much that it got rid of what made it Fallout. |
