Why is New Vegas the best Fallout? I wasn't expecting to love it so much.

Better weapon variety with round by round loading weapons as well as magazines, more ammo variety both in calibers and special types, overall solid writing and enough references to F1 and 2 to feel like part of the overall continuity rather than it's own thing.

Personally I play TTW, also like Fallot 3 a lot but 4 really disappointed me. We're not here to have a shitstorm about which is best though, leave that the /vg/

Trying a heavily modded survival run in 4 right now, and I'm actually enjoying it quite a bit. Firefights end in one or two hits most of the time, so sneaking and cover is absolutely essential.

Also, Piper is easily the best fallout grill.

>>30083319
>good perception
>bad accuracy
accuracy in NV is based on perception.

>>30083316
heavy weapons ammo does not infinity spawn like smallarms ammo with settlers, so gg wasting mininukes on single raiders because you were too cheap to build enough turrets to just never get attacked.

>>30083445
the nosave, no fast travel, no dev menu thing is a load of shit that just makes the game take dozens of hours longer, not to mention how crash prone and stuck prone Fo4 is. also the stock damage ballance is trash, 200% dam you-enemies mod is a must.

>>30083500
Pretty much what I thought, that's why I modded it. One that adds an autosave when you transition areas, and another that allows you to fast travel between your settlements that have caravans connecting them, for a small fee. it works out quite well actually.

The no console thing kind of sucks if you get stuck and need to noclip, but hey, there's a mod for that too.

I recommend powered power armor for a mod, it's a highly detailed system that lets you custom tailor your power armor to be capable of various things such as energy discharges, increase your run speed, give you thermal optics, and provide medical attention in battle. you just have to be kind of careful about power consumption and heating or you'll end up up shit creek with no paddle

you need to lurk more, your new is showing. "Stalker Challenge" threads are about going innawoods with goals inspired by the Stalker video game franchise. /k/ Stalker threads, of which there have been many, are about the videogame that hates you as much as you love to play it.

>>30082907
I'll admit, from a purely /k/ perspective, NV was better than 4, definitely in terms of variety of weapons, ammo, and armor. That said, the DLC has really brought 4 to life in my opinion. Far harbor was great, and adding lever action rifles back into the game was a good move. There's just something DEEPLY satisfying about running around with a legendary mare's leg that does 15 extra points of explosive damage. Blasting the legs out from under a charred feral ghoul and then calmly walking up to finish it off fulfills me on a primal level.

Also, survival mode is actually a semi decent representation of what a shtf scenario would look like. Getting shot will actually kill you, need to keep track of your vitals, have to cook food, disease becomes a thing, etc. obviously it's not perfect, but for what it is, it's pretty decent.

I've got a deep love for NV, and I understand why 4 wouldnt be everyone's favorite, but I still think 4 was pretty damn decent, and it's DCL really allows it to shine.

>>30083867
I might give it another look. I was really hyped for 4 when it was coming out, but it very quickly wore thin and left a bad taste in my mouth. It's not the guns as much as it was the repetitive radiant 'kill everything at X location' quests and almost complete lack of anyone I cared about in the setting. The terrible weapons was the icing on the cake but there were a lot of other reasons I went back to Tale of Two Wastelands after playing a lot of 4.

Nice to hear lever guns are back though.

also best ending to far harbor is using the brotherhood to kill Dima and his synth fukkin shits, then kill the children of atom in a nigh impenetrable suit of leaded power armor before mopping up with the nuclear launch key. The whole "hurr appeasement" "everyone is best off if controlled" message left a bad taste in my mouth playing the dlc like they wanted you to. Fuck Dima and fuck cultists. There needs to be a mod to make the game more shades of grey regarding bethcuckda making the "farharbor is for harbormen" gunshop owner such a one dimensional asshole evil goy for not tolerating violent religious extremists and foreigners.

>>30083918
>roboticist did not have Mr. Gutsy as a voice/personality module

>>30083903
My main problem was that they didn't take everything good about New Vegas and keep it.
That and the stupid Borderlands weapons system, the radiant quests and the speaking character with a set background that makes it very hard to roleplay.

>>30083970
That pretty much sums it up, that and how most of the quests only ever had one way to complete them that almost always involved violence, there were only a couple I can remember that had nonviolent solutions.

Oh and how the speech system was ruined and only charisma could ever influence speech ability, removal of any special options beyond persuade, how most of the dialogue options were just the same lines with slightly changed wording, so on and so forth.

I'm not mad, just disappointed.

>>30083921

(Spoiler alert)


Lee was right though. He wasn't one dimensional, he was correct about Tektus wanting to kill them all, and the only reason that Captain Avery disagreed with him was because Dima replaced her. I was actually on board with dima wanting peace, and I was hoping the option to kill Tektus and bring back Martin would appear, but when I discovered dima's real machinations I immediately launched the nuke. The children get the grand division that they want, the harbormen no longer have to worry about a cult of irradiated psychopaths, and dima doesn't get to replace all the island's leaders with synths under his control to turn the whole island into Institute 2: Electric Boogaloo

Add to the fact that Longfellow is an absolutely based madman, and I thought the DLC was pretty enjoyable. Not to mention it only reaffirmed my devotion to the BoS by showing that synths are NEVER to be trusted.

>tfw cant get AA work in the game with Nvidia

Fucking white specks on everything.

>>30083970
>>30084007
I totally get it. 4 had a MUCH more linear, set storyline, and role playing outside of it was more difficult than it was it NV. I still had fun playing it though, as it was a story I liked. I do think the radiant quests are dumb, with the exception of tinker tom's because at least they don't infinitely re spawn and they take you to some cool, scenic locations.

My really big problem was the factions. The gunners were just a palette swapped talon company from 3, and while the raiders had some cool lore expansion with the different gangs, we never see that used beyond a few terminal entries. In NV, the NCR and Legion were both VERY well fleshed out in terms of themes and motives, and they both felt like very real societies. And while I'm a whore for everything BoS, their motives were never explained beyond "hurr institute evil synths evil we crush!" Add to that the fact that we don't have anything like the gun runners, the Crimson caravan, or the followers, and it just winds up feeling like I don't have as many characters that I can truly get invested in.

I'm mixed on the guns. There are fewer guns in 4 than NV, but modifying them is cool. Far Harbor adding more was much needed and highly refreshing, but I'm REALLY hoping 4 gets a "gun runners arsenal" type DLC, as that would put me VERY solidly back into enjoying the game.

Overall, I DO think NV is better in a lot of ways, but I also enjoyed 4 as a game.

true, but they did make Lee as much of a cocksmoker as possible to direct you towards the "right" option. But it's blazingly clear that the only way to handle the children of atom long term is the only way they are handled everywhere else.

I was hoping you'd find martin in his hidey hole and he'd give you an 3rd act M night shyamalan twist.

>>30083596
Sauce?

>>30083445
where did you get the weapon mods?

>>30084106
100% true as well.
It's been really, really nagging me that there are very few friendly factions and that pretty much every random group you come across is hostile.
In New Vegas most factions, aside from raiders, vipers and jackals, were only hostile if you'd made them hostile.
Its the same with settlements, every place you come across is deserted, full of bodies or raiders, its depressing.

Having said all that, I've played well over a hundred hours, I love exploring and can't wait for the DLC.

I just can't help thinking what it would have been like if they'd have kept the New Vegas content, if its as good as it is with its numerous flaws, imagine what it would've been like if they weren't present.

>>30084853
I've described Fallout 4 as a mechanically fun, perfectly functional toybox with nothing truly engaging in it. Fun exploration, fun fights, some fun weapons and gameplay, but in the end there's almost nothing for someone who wants to be engaged with story or characters.

And yeah, it really got to me how there were only like 2 maybe 3 actual settlements with any kind of personality to them, most of the Commonwealth was just a great big empty expanse of raiders, mutants, fuck all and more raiders.

I was doing a modded run of NV for a while at max graphics that was great. Then my graphics card shit out, gtx 950, and I got it replaced with a gtx 960. Now for whatever reason I can't run the game much above "normal" graphics setting, and it frequently freezes for 1-2 seconds when opening containers or pausing. That really killed it for me.

story killed new vegas and 3 for me. bout 120 hours on my most recent char and I havent done any main story shit unless it's relevant to the goals and MO of the char. I take the RP part of RPGs pretty seriously and bethesda is great for them seeing as theyre mostly just giant gameplay sandboxes.

new vegas was extremely limited by main story progression, while in 4 the main story is kinda always there in dialog and interactions, it's much easier to ignore and replace with your own.

you get to shoot people a lot
then shoot a lot more people
because that's all I want from my roleplaying games: shooting galleries and endless bland radiant quests

>>30083867
I agree. Almost 570 hours and just about finished with my first play through of 4. Far Harbor was top notch and I can't wait for Nuka World. Playing with a decent PC, I didn't experience many issues that weren't addressable, and few crashes. Getting ready to go back and start playing the series from the beginning again.

It really comes down to your individual approach to a game. How much you want to imagine scenarios and RP in your head vs. letting the story lead you in your RP. Each game has its own atmosphere that makes me feel a certain way and I love the series for that. Sometimes I want to roam the Capitol Wasteland and leave supplies for imaginary travellers, other times I want to build and purge settlements.

anyone else find far harbor much more "fallout" than FO4?

For one reason
>the world feels smaller
you're one guy acting as the pin to the grenade of a struggle between at most 100 people, with the option to bring in an outside group (BHoS) and fukkinReck one of the major factions in about 5 minutes right at the start. It's "believable" that you can kill far harbor by shutting off the fog condensers, nuke the children of atom/power armor your way through all 30 of them, or cheeki breeki the 20 people in Arcadia with half a dozen dudes with rifles.

In FO4 you're a man trying to find his son... who because reasons becomes the most important person in massachusetts around which EVERYTHING depends, even the day to day operations of EVERY settlement in the game. You get no sense of living in a functioning world. FO is about being a guy with a mission you can choose to ignore, exploring the wild wasteland of 22XX, not being it's jesus allegory messiah.

>>30084853
>>30084892
>so many fucking raiders
this is one of the most retarded things in FO4. In real life, and every other fallout game raiders/bandits are realistically rare or are organized groups with infrastructure that explains their longevity. in NV the jackals and vipers number less than 10 members on the whole map and are purposefully waiting in ambush with the fiends based out of a vault with vault resources supplemented by le cannibalism and being methzombies. everyone else is either a town or a faction controlling territory
>inb4 but named raiders and those eternally respawning locations
so like 95% of the commonwealth is controlled by cannibal raiders who war amongst themselves and normies, with the fluff terminals/notes saying they all are weeks old at the most. it's like a bethesda world designer jacked off to Crossed too much before deciding npc spawns

The damage mod is just one that makes survival mode have a 2.5x(or 3x?) multiplier for everyone, not just enemies. Piper mod is called Loving Piper IIRC

>>30084831
The weapon mod is called Modern Firearms Gunsmith edition. It adds the AR/ACR/MP5/HK416(417)/G36/SCAR L&H/Sig 55x series/and the AK platforms, with all the mods you can build being different barrels, grips, sights, stocks, etc. It's really cool, but has a few issues with buggy and/or half finished mods, and since the mods don't effect damage values, they are all tuned for late game damage by default. Also, default FO4 animations aren't really made with real world guns in mind, so get used to this kind of thing until someone starts making different animations.

Had a lot of fun using the T-800 terminator mod. Full on endoskeleton with a china lake 40mm and minigun. Leveraction shotty for trifecta

What mod, OP? I desperately want more assault rifle variety in NV

>>30086088
Millenia's Galil. All his weapons are glorious.

>>30086096
Is there any weapon overhaul mod that adds a bunch?

>>30086123
There is a big compilation of all his guns, but it's not got the latest ones. I think the compilation has them integrated into vendor lists and some spawn lists. Powder Gangers with Mac 10s and the like.

>>30086148
thanks famalam

>>30086165
Yeah, another one you should look into is Heffy's AR15 and AK47 modpack.

Introduces a metric ton of guns to the game, with vendor and level lists it seems.

Also, the CaliberX mod is a must before all others, as it puts in all the proper ammo types for the various guns.

Gives an interesting bit of forced variety as far as having to switch over from your AK74 because you're out of that caliber.

Then of course you get into changing reload animations, Heffy's pack has anims for the weapons it comes with but personally the 1st person stuff isn't my favorite, so I use other animations pulled from various sources for AR animations and 1st person AK reloads.

There's also a mod I can track down that makes jamming more realistic, as in it happens while firing rather than only when reloading.

New vegas was only good if you modded it.

>>30086225
Which greenery mod are you using? The couple I've tried made the mistake of adding way too much grass, so much that there's grass clipping through floors in most of the living areas, making it look horrible.

It's not even close to best one. That honor goes to fallout 1 or 2. NV vanilla was painfully boring walking through endless barrens with flies attacking you. It all felt very static. Also, the game kept hyping up New Vegas. When you finally get there it's a couple of casinos and a tower. Boring.

I've had fallout 4 since day one and haven't played more than 10 minutes yet.

TFW over 5000 hours on fnv, and close to the same on fo3. I have customized my NV so that all unique characters, and almost all random characters have their own appearance with lore friendly outfits and weapons. Backpacks, lots and lots of extra gear Fallout left out. I used resources gathered from other mods to make my own so I could never release much because no models are mine. I have a few base mods I released on the nexus, only one that I'm pretty happy about but that's it.

Anon I am ashamed.

Mods really do make this game so much better. I still have mad love for the vanilla, but man mods are great.

>>30088800
I agree, the texture especially looks terrible today, but I think that retex did a pretty good job. I think I had to manually install the textures though because I play TTW, and it runs off of New Vegas, and those mods were for Fallout 3 and never were ported over. Modding my Fallout has been a long and arduous project I think I might be seeing the end of soon, even did a few things of my own, mostly just playing with other people's assets.

>>30088810
Fallout 3 was one of the few games I've ever truly fallen in love with, and my introduction to the franchise. My love for Fallout is why I'm so careful to keep my mods lore friendly.

Anybody else kill these fuckers on sight?

I got a little ways into NV and finally got fed up with their snarky fucking comments telling me to watch myself and such that I did just enough storyline to gain access to Caesar's camp and murdered every living thing on his shitty little island.
Best part is, there was a glitch that reloaded everybody's belongings in his compound when I exited and re-entered, so I pillaged all the bodies like 6-7 times before I got tired of it.

Never really looked into what Caesar's storyline yielded, but don't really care. It was super satisfying killing all those fuckwads.

>>30088847
I like fallout 3 but I haven't gotten it for PC, so I only played vanilla. I like it, but I like new vegas' story/setting better and I like actually having sights and reloading. New vegas is in my top 3 games I'll always play.

Caesar's Legion always struck me as just another wasteland gang breaking things to feel good about themselves, subscribing to a bullshit ideology based on nothing but self gratification and fanatical service to a man who himself only created a nation so he could have a sandbox to play in. For all his big talk Caesar acted more like a spoiled child, with the kind of oily non-charisma of someone who's convinced they're charming and intelligent, then breaking down into a hissy fit the moment he didn't get his way.

They had a fucking neanderthal in charge of guns I swear. I had to play melee only with some of the fantasy weapons because those get a pass for being completely fictional. I could not so much as look at any of the guns that resembled a real life gun. I'm gonna have to wait a year or 2 until I there are enough quality weapon mods out for me to never see a vanilla weapon from that game again.

there was probably a planned joinable bandit faction, considering they're the damn society that seemed to pop up in the commonwealth due to semi annual institute purges of large organizations. I'd much rather have shot preston in the face and gotten into a fistfight for dominance with that raider boss you minigun down, then have him become your evil companion and introduce you to his raider buddies to raid all the 5 person farmsteads you annex as "da good goys"

but as per usual, bethesda games have no "hard" DRM so pirating is easy and mods will eventually fix everything.

>hardcore is in any way hard

Food isn't affected by hardcore mode apart from removing hunger and such, even mid tier food is gonna heal for about 8-9 health per second once you're just half way into survival, and the effects stack from multiple food sources. Eat three different steaks and a couple of different old world foods and you're easily looking at 40 health per second.

Imagine you have toughness, skin implant and rad child on critical rad poisoning and high endurance, cram a ton of food in your face and you become very difficult to take down. Start doing drugs and shit gets really crazy.

I barely even notice I'm playing hardcore mode, because most games I just fill half my carry capacity with food and drugs and then one or two kinds of ammo, and usually not a whole lot.

More than I make shooty, choppy or talky characters, hardy is what defines most of my Couriers.

All the fallouts except 1&2 are barbie dress up games designed for men.

But anon he has stuff he isnt even allowed to sell. How will you get it now?

>>30082919

Because it feels more like a virtual world than game. The courier is part of the world, the world doesn't revolve around the courier. Every decision you make has consequences and everything is somewhat connected. The towns feel more real, and the NPCs that inhabit them feel like real people with real woes and ambitions.

As for the actual gameplay, I love the western feel. The gun selection was diverse and neat. NV gets criticized a lot for being boring with the walking through empty desert, but I feel that it added to the atmosphere and I liked not having to fight something every 10 feet like FO3.

New Vegas is probably my favorite game of all time.

this

worst part of FO4 is that overland map travel is constant fighting unless you've mopped the exact route you took in the window before the mobs respawn. it especially makes survival difficulty bullshit when you've killed 60 people every time you want to go from sanctuary to diamond city.

Far harbor is pretty good though.
>small world, meaning your character having an effect makes sense.
there's less than 50, maybe 60 people on the whole island; your guy turning the balance is realistic, unlike the "you are the most important person in all of massachusetts and no faction does a thing without your direct involvement" bullshit on the main map

I thought New Vegas did a good job handling how important the PC was. You decide the fate of the Mojave, but because you're in the right place and time to tip factions and leaders one way or another in a situation that was already primed for rapid change, and you happen to control a maguffin which can give your chosen side a strategic advantage.

Fallout 3 did it decently too, making it clear that you were one strong asset who can make a lot of difference wherever you happen to be, but the legwork of a large campaign requires a lot of other troops and assets doing their thing alongside you.

>>30092900
FO3 has a small goal, only problem is that the water purifier storyline is retarded when you pay attention to it for 5 seconds. You're fighting over who gets to flip the switch to turn it on (that some fag from the enclave wants to poison), yet water is the least of the DC wastelands problems.

FO:NV and your merc work helping what's already happening along is pretty much perfect.

>>30092984
I think the purifier is a pretty big deal. Clean water means no more people dying of contaminated water, which is a somewhat common element with water beggers and Rivet City chatter. It also means crops, agriculture, an end to just surviving on scraps and monster meat, real civilization.

Honestly between turning on the clean purifier and encouraging the spread of Oasis' plant life, the Capitol Wasteland might not be a Wasteland for too long.

Though personally I chose to believe in my longstanding headcanon of what happened after the game rather than the implications Fallout 4 brought around.

>>30093025
isn't the FO4 canon that the BHoS went all poorly written allegory for the iraq reconstruction/old school BHoS dealing with tribals after turning on the purifier and fucking the enclave in the ass?

>>30093088
Not exactly an allegory in my opinion, but the more openminded leadership died off and the chosen heir that replaced them was a lot more rigidly dogmatic and traditional.

The thing about the Brotherhood is that their methods and ideology made sense when they were founded, when the wastes were ruled by nothing but raider gangs and lawless survivors. But they never changed with the times.

The NCR completely curbstomped them in the end because the BoS never treated them as anything more than wasteland savages to be beaten up and looted for shiny tech. It's a mistake Maxson repeats in FO4 by not even recognizing the Minutemen as an organization worth mentioning, let alone a threat, but who can potentially deliver a one sided massacre to his entire force in one of the endings through logistics and artillery and numbers.

Really the BoS make me sad, hoarding the shiny tech away for some never-to-come day when they will rebuild the world, meanwhile the people upstairs are rebuilding the world already without waiting for their permission to do it.

the lack of gunner faction options pissed me off. I'd like to see them duke it out with the BHoS in more than random spawns aggroing each other. You should be able to act as BHoS recon and call in like 5 mininuke armed vertibirds and 20 Knights to wipe quincy instead of 2 knights and a vertibird aggroing and dying after killing 1/4 of the gunners. Or join the gunners and start hunting BHoS squads for their powerarmor.

also gunner howitzers instead of those godawful minuteman ISIS propane tank mortars.

I'm from Vegas and I couldn't get over how poorly they designed the areas. Red Rock doesn't look like the Grand Canyon, retards. That was the worst one but literally every part of the game looks nothing like what it is in real life.

>>30095237
red rock looked pretty similar actually
I'm from Fairfax and FO3 DC didn't look anything even vaguely like the DMV IRL. Just be flattered that it was vaguely similar. the fact that Fairfax was in FO3 made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

>>30095036
It is my favorite mod, with the no AP drain on the jetpack as a close second.

>>30093156

Same here.

The DC Brotherhood was what the Brotherhood should have ended up like: using all that tech to actually help people. Literally the rest of the Brotherhood are just a bunch of laserniggers bent on killing and looting everything in their way as they forcibly confiscate and hoard anything more complicated than a socket wrench. Fuck them. I raped the NV chapter with indoor nukes and sent the Prydwen down in goddamned flames. Fuck the fuckers.

This guy has the right idea. NCR need to go back to cali and the Legion needs to fuck off and die.

>>30095979
My problem with the NCR was that they just rolled in like they owned the place, and for all their talk of liberating the locals only just wanted to do an Empire expansion and claim the resources for themselves, they didn't care about the Mojave, only how they could profit off of it.

They have the same feeling for me that Manifest Destiny America had, civilizing the savage natives at gunpoint if needed.

>>30095812
Until they returned to the traditional ways after Lyons died and fell prey to the exact same flaws as the original.

>>30096092
The FO4 Brotherhood is still recruiting. Just less altruistic.

>>30084180
Pic related and the ghoul merc would be 10/10 companions, but betheada dropped the fucking ball again, now mods have to fix their bullshit

>>30096137
They roll up in their flying base, and immediately act like they're in charge of the place, 'requisition' food and supplies from the locals at gunpoint and still walk around like they're the big damn heroes and everyone should be adoring them.

They still openly recruit, that's true, but they've gone back to being an insular, stuck up secret club with no interest in helping people or actually improving the world in meaningful ways, other than taking over.

Sounds like a personal opinion because it never felt like that to me.

>>30097187

iron sights are used because they are simple, rugged, and don't run on batteries
if the gun itself is complex as balls and runs on batteries it stands to reason the sights would too

>>30097239
>objective gameplay facts
>S-SOUNDS LIKE A PERSONAL OPINION

a fully repaired 9mm pistol does 13 points of damage, iirc. A starting character is guaranteed to have over 100 hp. (it's 95 base plus 20*END). Human enemies scale to have about as much HP as you.

There also isn't much cover in the game, so firefights are pretty much as static as it gets.

>>30097262
>laser rifles categorically CANNOT have ironsights because something that runs on batteries has to have no non-powered parts to exist
>but somehow a laser rifle that can put out enough energy to incinerate people can't power its own sights
you are dumb as fuck

also there was a planned reflex sight for the lowest level AR variant so fuck you double

and GRA added iron sights as an aftermarket mod to the laser pistol, and the rifle can adopt a scope in the base game, so fuck you quadruple

>>30097187

New Vegas is only /k/ if you mod it, in particular damage mods. I remember ghouls taking a sneaking headshot from a hunting rifle and not dying. And another time I ambushed a legion patrol from a cliff with a grenade launcher and it would knock them down but barely did any damage.

>>30097351
There is very little level scaling in nv unlike 3 and 4 most npcs and enemys have a set level.

Also again I never had any problems finding cover, mostly used corners and doorways if I was going in guns blazing which was not very often because maybe a third of every quest needed many people or things killed so most can be done with speech or stealth
.

>>30097371
It sounds like he is confusing 4 with nv because everything is very bullet spongy in 4 and very few quests don't have you killing those raiders or ghouls in some plant you have cleared 5 times before.

>>30097371
>Camp McCarran,
"pls kill that raider over there" t. a ptsd'd up dyke slut with fake hair
>Gomorroah,
"pls kill my boss" t. a terrorist
>The Ultra Luxe,
"pls kill that delicious child" t. mortimer or whatever that fuccboi's name was
>Crimson Caravan,
"pls kill literally every1" t. cass
>Novak,

>BoS,
literally the only one with no killing, but it's just a garbage fetch quest for garbage items. or still just
"pls kill my boss" t. ultramarine
>Freeside
"pls kill 8 cazadors and bring me their butts" t. some slut that's probably into banging gekkos

everything that wasn't "pls kill so-and-so" was just a simple speech option. there's no other gameplay than either shooting people, or clicking the "i win" button if you had one of the perks that gives special speech options (and of course damage boosts because perks that don't affect combat are wastes of slots because 99% of quests are "pls kill so-and-so")

NV fucking sucks.

>>30097440
Enemies have a minimum level, not a set level. It's only noticeable if you go out of your way to try to kill deathclaws at level 1, but if you're level 50, the shitty Jackals you find around will suddenly have 200 HP and be armed with grenade launchers and 10mm SMGs across the board.

>>30097536
All of those can be done with no killing or very little and you have the option on how to do it compared to go kill 80 ferals in this old fish plant for the 8th time in 4 where your only option is shotgun or rifle.

yeah they're called "Black Widow" and "Lady Killer".

>fucking shit fallout 1's whole story was just an elaborate fetch quest
F1 also sucked and wasn't exactly the /k/-est game either. So did F2. Same for F3.

NV just happens to have dogshit gunplay on top of the bad quest design and nonsense plot. At least in F3 there was cover around to use to make firefights at least slightly dynamic.

>>30097713
>yeah they're called "Black Widow" and "Lady Killer".

okay

>>30097799
>>F1, F2, F3, F:NV all were shit
they were

F1 and 2 were clunky and terrible even by 90s crpg standards

F3 is okay at best but at least keeps itself reigned in enough to be simple fun

FONV is just a shitty F3 mod except somehow with WORSE gunplay because everything takes longer to die and there's no fucking cover anywhere and there's 9999x more inventory management and endless fucking backtracking and schlepping around for everything. and the centerpiece location of the game is only like three blocks

>>30090925
