I had this idea for a mod
I wouldn't be able to make this as it would probably involve some kind of scripting so ill just leave it here

You know how in gta5 when your in first person you can switch from iron sights to just zooming in with the crosshairs using the mouse wheel?
That would make a great mod for new vegas
>aim and then scroll up and down on the mouse wheel to switch true iron sights from on to off
And as far as how it would work I'm thinking all you would have to do is bind the ability to toggle true iron sights to the mouse wheel when you aim with none scoped weapons that way it won't conflict with Project Nevadas scope zoom thing

The reason why I think these places will be used in future Fallout games is several fold

1. Even using a Fallout 1/2/Tactics style map that covers a are area of land, we would have needed like 30+ games to cover all the U.S.

2. Now that each game is focusing on only one city at time, it would take even more.

3. While there are plenty of big cities in America, not all of them have the same level of historical or cultural value.

4. Even with many of those that do, they are so close together, especially along the east coast and the eastern Midwest, that it would take forever just to get out of one small area, and all of those games were have such similar style of architecture and culture that they would all be basically the same.

So with all these in mind, the developers have to pick and choose cities of high cultural/historical importance, that are far enough away to be different then other cities, but also close enough.

If we look at the east coast for example
-Boston
-Washington D.C.
-Charelston(Likely the Broken Banks)
-Miami
-New Orleans

Are all roughly equal distances from each other, and cover most of the east coast.

With the Vanilla games they can show these cities, and the wastelands immediately surrounding them, so we can get a picture of what the wastelands and larger cities of the region are like, and then they can use DLC like Far Harbor, Point Lookout, and Honest Hearts to show us what the more backwoods areas are like, and DLC like Nuka world, The Pitt, and OWB to show us how other pre-war locations/towns have been doing since the war.

With all of this we can get a somewhat complete picture of how this region is, without having to actually see it all.

Fallout 4 + DLC covered New England, states like Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New Hampshire.

Fallout 3 + DLC covered Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware.

Fallout 5 + DLC will likely cover the Carolinas + Georgia

>>150985473
Fallout 6 will likely be Florida + Bahamas and Cuba

Fallout 7 will be Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama

Fallout 8 will be Texas, Arkansas, and Oklahoma

with all of this, combined with what we have seen in Fallouts 1, 2, New Vegas, and Tactics, we will have seen basically all of post-war America.

OFC, Obsidian could likely develop Fallout games like they did with New Vegas, on the west coast theres LA, San Fran, and Seattle to explore.

And maybe Phoenix in the Legion's lands.

>>150985626
I wonder how far into the future we'll go in the games, it feels weird to have such a large jump from 1 to 2 to 3 and then have every future game bunched up in a span of 30 or so years, but it'd also feel strange to have people living in the shadow of a war that took place like 300 years prior, especially with how quickly the west coast got back on its feet. The games could always go backwards in time but I've heard NV originally took place between 2 and 3 but Bethesda were against it.

Great posts btw, your predictions make a lot of sense.

>>150987156
>especially with how quickly the west coast got back on its feet
The West coast has always been an anomaly due to the fact it was made before the Vault program got stupid.

Vault City and Shady both come from functional vaults and working GECKs.

Necropolis and most of the ghouls in California come from Necropolis, a Vault that "succeeded" if only in that it didn't outright kill everyone in it.

Not to mention the fact that civilization wouldn't exist on the west coast had the Vault Dweller and Chosen Ones not defeated The Master and The Enclave.

The East Coast on the other hand had to suffer from everything from radioactive fog, the rad storms of the glowing sea, the irradiated rivers of The Pitt made worse by all the chemicals from the old factorizes, and the pervasive radiation of the Capital Wasteland.

Not to mention the fact that the CW has had to deal with super mutant hordes for 200 years, and the people of the commonwealth have had to deal with not only super mutant hordes, but The Institute, who has been semi-actively playing everyone against each other.

Not only that, but that they survived all of this for 200 years without a super magical player character ala the Chosen One or Vault Dweller, is rather impressive.

Hell, from what we are told in New Vegas the state of Utah is nothing but degenerate tribals, and savage raider gangs outside the small town of New Canaan, and their mission in Zion.

Raul states before The Legion came, Arizona was so thick with raiders one couldn't trade even two miles down the road.

In Colorado, Denver was entirely abandoned and left to be overrun by dogs.

And Vegas itself sat as nothing more then a ruin with the various tribal groups roaming through it until a mere 7 years before New Vegas began.

By compare, the East Coast had established Megaton, and Diamond City, 100 years ago, other towns like Rivet city, Underworld, and Goodneighbor have been around for 40 years.

>>150988118
Not only that but the east coast has trade routes going hundreds of miles up and down the coast, from Boston to the Broken Banks south of D.C., both on land and sea.

By what New Vegas tell us of the western U.S. outside of the NCR, the east coast is the most developed area post-war, outside the NCR ofc.

>>150988118
>Super special snowflakes

I never implied it didn't.

I was simply stating the East Coast did not have any until long after the west coast had gotten their to save them from being destroyed.

You're right the west coast really is a bit of an odd one out, I supposes its prominence in the games really colored my thoughts on how the US in general should be, I never really took the number of advantages it had into account. Tthe games taking place well into the 2300s makes a lot more sense than I originally thought.

>>150988517
I'm pretty sure fo3 was supposed to take place after the bombs fell. That's why it looks like shit. They got bombed harder is stupid because the more radiation the faster it dissipates
>Inb4 it's not supposed to make sense!
While fallout does have different rules from real life a lot still applies. For example, if you don't turn into a ghoul and stand in radiation for to long you will eventually kneel over and die.

>>150989076
>I'm pretty sure fo3 was supposed to take place after the bombs fell.
Nothing suggests this.
>They got bombed harder is stupid because the more radiation the faster it dissipates
Fallout is not real life.
>While fallout does have different rules from real life a lot still applies.
And obviously this part does not, as we see it in Fallout 3, its DLC, Fallout 4, and its DLC, and even several places in NV have radioactive water as well.

>>150988118
Have you ever considered that over parts of the country are doing as well or perhaps better than the west coast, and the east coast exists as it does because Bethesda can't write for jack?

I want a game where it takes place on the fringe of the NCR. Like maybe the westernmost settlement is Junktown or Hub, and here we see that since the NCR was formed, you see traders working in suits instead of rags, the streets are clean, buildings refurbished, cars and buses taking people to work, and police officers, and the further away you get the heavier gang presence there is and the police officers turn into soldiers, crop farmers are wearing overalls and are protecting their homesteads from Raiders.
That, or I'd rather see Denver or somewhere. I really don't think a location like Miami would feel right in the Fallout universe, considering all the tourist attractions and landmarks came AFTER the Communist revolution in Cuba, which was roughly post-timeline divergence.

>>150989731
Other parts* ahem
Apparently I can't write for jack anymore.

Except we know they aren't.

New Vegas tells us that Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah are mostly just spear chucking tribal groups, and raiders. Most of which have been conquered by the Legion, who has no civilization arm, and just sort of rules over what few civilized communities there were..

Ending slides for New Vegas tell us that Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana are mostly wildness, and that the northwest is in ruins. The only sign of any civilization up there at all is the small coal mining town the Drifter came from, and he even mentions he and his mother had a hard life.

The fact that the Great Khans can build a vast empire out of the northwest in one of the endings shows us there must be no powers of note in the region. Which is backed up by the fact that the White Legs can retreat to Wyoming after getting their asses kicked by the 80s, which also suggests theres nothing up there to mess with them.


The Midwest is likely only so-so given that the destroy the Calculator ending is 99% likely to be canon. The fact that Caesar has captured BoS scribes on hsi eastern border, and not suffered any sort of MWBoS counter attack, along with Rothchild's comments on the Chicago BoS being a small group, suggests they have devolved into something akin to Lyons or Maxson, a small roaving group that kills what raiders and stuff they can, but ultimately doesn't rule over the land.

Its easy to go

Bethesda didn't care and wanted a main goal/something cool. Moving water and soil would eventually filter it out and plants would still grow. Look at Chernobyl or Hiroshima some years after they had their land exposed to radiation.

Most of these seem to be puddles of non moving water with a lot of trucks with barrels in them. Since these barrels can be found across the wastes it safe to assume the barrels contaminated the water.

Fallout is based on 1950's scifi b-movies and nuclear paranoia which often depicted nuclear war as destroying the world and making it radioactive for freaking ever.

>>150992561
>Rigging a purifier to explode with radiation is not irrational
A. It doesn't explode normally.
B. It releases radiation as a failsafe to prevent people like the Enclave from using it as a weapon. Given how needed clean water is in D.C., anyone could get thid hands on the purifier and use it for personal gain, rather then the benefit of people, without a failsafe.

>Enclave following a stupid A.I. is not irrational
The only people who knew Eden was an AI were autumn, and his father. And given how low the morale of the Enclave must have been after getting their butts kicked, it makes sense he wouldn't reveal it as it could split the Enclave.

Not to mention Autumn betrayed Eden once Eden went full batshit and tired to kill everyone with FEV.

>Vault guards that attack you with pure malice despite knowing you all your life is not irrational
They never liked you or your father because they were brainwashed fgts who saw outsiders as evil.

>BoS needing to take GNR despite it having no tactical advantage is not irrational
Actually it does have a tactical advantage, it serves as a base within the ruins of D.C. they can use as safe passage in and out of D.c., and three Dog is a propaganda icon that can get people to join the BoS so they have ore soldiers to throw at the super mutants

>Two groups from the west coast just so happen to be in the east coast fighting for a purifier they don't need isn't irrational
Actually they both do need it. The BoS, even Lyons BoS were dying off, as were The Enclave, the water purifier was the PR tool they needed to get the masses behind them in order to sustain their failing regimes.

The fact that the Great Khans can build a vast empire out of the northwest in one of the endings shows us there must be no powers of note in the region.
You're saying that as if the Great Khan/not dying at Hoover Dam ending is definitely canon. For all we know the canon of NV could be that the Courier is black female who murdered everything but Yesman.

And even then, you've still got the Great Lake states and literally every state that make up the south. There is still room for other places to thrive.

>>150993189
>Ur just mad
Nice argument kiddo.

>>150993423
To be fair, most of his counter points are correct. Most of the Enclave had no idea Eden was a robot, and the GNR building is a decent stronghold in the middle of the city. It's mainly just raiders behind them and they are pushovers.

Really though you shouldn't even be arguing about this shit. If the writers don't care why should you?

>>150993316
>You're saying that as if the Great Khan/not dying at Hoover Dam ending is definitely canon.
No, I'm saying the fact Obsidian decided to write that as a possibility shows they are accepting of the idea. And the other bits of information we learn support the idea that it is indeed empty wilderness with little in it.

>And even then, you've still got the Great Lake states
What is Fallout Tactics for 500?
-The MWBoS have bases, and have explored, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Michigan.
-We have seen Pennsylvania in The Pitt
-We know about Ronto up in Canada
-New York proper gets a mention in Fallout 3 with its Abbey of the Road

>and literally every state that make up the south
The south is literally the only region left to explore, but given we know the Broken/Crater banks are south of D.C., the southern east coast does appear to be doing any better.

Only the cities of Texas and NEw Orleans have even the slimmest possibility of having formed any sort of civilization.

Literally, the only Great Lakes state not either part of the MBoS's territory, or visited/mentioned in some way, is Ohio.

>>150993737
That's why I'm not. I could refute his points, but I'm tired and just want to enjoy a thread about games I like.

>>150993834
Pretty sure Tactics isn't canon anymore, and even if it was, what's the time difference between Tactics and Fallout 4 (presuming of course that Fallout 5/spin off takes place after 4)

>>150994056
>Pretty sure Tactics isn't canon anymore
Its mentioned in Fallout 3, NV, and 4, and Bethesda has said the highest level events of it are canon, and OBsidian said they considered it canon as well.

>what's the time difference between Tactics and Fallout 4
About 89 years.

Though part of Lyons mission when heading east was to make contact with the "Eastern Brotherhood", and bring them back under Lost Hill's command.

Lyons apparently met the Eastern BoS, but they told him to fuck off, so he continued on his journey to D.C.

According to Rothchild, the BoS detachment in Chicago is small.

What are some good names for a Leigonary?

All I can really suggest is the most basic troubleshooting method of uninstalling the stuff you got between your last save and now, checking the save and if it's all good reinstalling them one by one.

Just a reminder that Bethesda made superpowers and alien artifacts canon.

>>150997028

If you are referring to Lorenzo's crown, that wasn't alien. Jack himself mentions that green men from outer space are nothing but popular hysteria.

No, but then again.

The psychic nullifier in Fallout 1 was made using alien technology, as was Skynet AI, and the biomed gel, in Fallout 2.

When it comes to "magic powers" Psykers and the like have been part of the lore since Fallout 1.

So I don't see how anyone can claim Bethesda made either AYYLAMOS or magic powers canon.

About 6 or 7 hours into my TTW playthrough, specializing in energy weapons and melee. Melee is tricky though, because I picked weak limbs and the Capital Wasteland doesn't seem to be properly populated with a supply of doctor's bags, so my recharging rifle and laser pistol have been carrying me through. A healthy supply of frags doesn't hurt, either.

Thinking about finally giving Fallout 2 a proper go, never got very far in it.

>>150993884

Unlike what the other anon says, devs should try to explain things.

Them waving out "well, this particular radiation lasts forever" feels stupid and tacked on.

Particularly when "muh radiated DC" is literally "I don't get any rads unless I get into the water".

So much for "it got blasted really hard with bombs, I swear!".

We'll have to agree to disagree, friend. I only ever beat 3 once while blazing through the story, never gave it a fair shake. Playing through it through the lens of NV's superior character building and stability has been fun for me.

I also have well over 100 hours in Fallout 4. It's fun.

I don't care where it will be next. If I want a new area I'll make it, like I'm doing with upper Florida. Now if only if I can get the fucking heightmap geck importing to work...

I'm having some trouble with F2. Just started trying to do a INT, CHA, and STR build with energy weapons, speech, and science as tagged skills. Problem is, I can't hit anything in the starting dungeon. My hit chance unarmed is in the 40's and with the spear is in the 30's. I even tried tagging melee weapons and my chance with the spear didn't go up any. Any general character building tips for F2? It seems really tough to get what I want out of the character. I don't even recall having this much trouble in F1 when I played through it.

>>151001558
have you tried combat mods? project nevada comes to mind, but there are much, much better ones then that.

>>151004819
>starting dungeon
You can just run past all the enemies in there. Also, tagging Small Guns would be safer than Energy Weapons. Mostly since you won't even see an Energy Weapons until at least a third of the way through the game.

>>151004819
You should honestly just run through the temple of trials, nobody likes them. Run past the ants, close the door behind you, sneak, exit combat.

Run by the next set of ants (wait for them to walk to convenient locations), sneak and grab the explosives, proceed

Skip ants like you did before, convince Cameron fighting is pointless or steal his key

It should take all of ~3 minutes to do this, then you can actually start having fun

>>151005013
Since this is my first "true" playthrough, I'm keeping it light on mods. Just some bugfixes, DarNified, and JSawyer Ultimate.

>>151005217
>I'm keeping it light on mods
why

>>151005114

So I've learned through a bit of googling. That's lame. I like energy weapons, but I'm sure as hell not gonna tag it as a skill if I only have one or two specific ways to get one early on. Almost seems like a pointless skill.

One of the things I think F4 does better than the others is dropping the segregation between energy weapons and ballistic weapons. A rifle is a rifle and a pistol is a pistol, it shouldn't be an entirely different skillset.

>>151005121

Thanks. I'll just have to do this.

>>151005509
Like I said, this is my first full playthrough of the game. I want to at least beat it once before I mod the shit out of it.

>>151005535
>One of the things I think F4 does better than the others is dropping the segregation between energy weapons and ballistic weapons. A rifle is a rifle and a pistol is a pistol, it shouldn't be an entirely different skillset.
>actively supporting the dumbing-down of RPGs
It's a game, why do you have to drag realism into it?
Did you enjoy that they removed skills, too, since leveling up and progressing is too hard?

>>151005535
Your best bet would be to tag Small Guns instead, then later in the game when you start finding Energy Weapons, dump all your skill points into that.
That's what I would do at least.

>>151005806
You don't have to devolve all discussion into shit, he was just expressing something he liked

>>151005806

At what point did I say leveling and progressing is hard? I enjoy a good RPG, but the distinction between energy and ballistic weapons was always foolish and arbitrary. You can still separate it out into pistols/SMGs, rifles, automatics, big guns, etc. Still plenty of options and not dumbed down, but a bit more logical.

I know suggesting that F4 improved upon any of the other games in any way is heresy, but calm that shit down. They're just video games, man.

Pillars had this problem in reverse.

You spend 99% of the game not really learning anything about the badguy besides the name, and the fact hes blaming everything on the Animancers, only to reach the final dungeon, and suffer through two massive as fucking info dumps from ghost lady and thaos himself.

Obsidian just really fucking sucks as story pacing sometimes.

Van Buren was going to do the same thing.

Honestly, Energy Weapons being different only makes sense in a few ways:

-maintenance
-laser rifles shouldn't have recoil (though they do in Fo4, for... some reason)
-ballistics (or lack thereof)

Grouping weapons into rifles, pistols, big guns, and explosives would be better, but I still think skills are better than mediocre perk trees

Before I played Fallout 3, I played New Vegas. When I saw those shitty "le tunnel snakes" meme videos, I though the tunnel snakes were like a faction or something that lived inside a vault and all wore a specific style of clothing and The Boomers. Little did I know that 3 sucked and didn't have factions like "what the fuck are tunnel snakes if the game doesn't have factions". Turns out they are the fucking school bullies of the guy you play with like "what the fuck?" What were Beshitha thinking. That's mad dumb.

Hi, drunk anon. Yeah, Bethesda is pretty braindead retarded. It would actually be pretty neat if the Tunnel Snakes were a full faction, but 3 has none. And of 4's are garbage. 2 and NV did factions the best. 1 didn't have much there.

I dont think survivng a bullet in the head is common

I just beat Lonesome Road and now I'd like to try to summarize the plot so that I can wrap my head around it.
So, You, Courier, the player was originally a prospector(?) from further west from Vegas before the events of New Vegas. You foraged a way(built a road?) from the west coast to the Vegas area. You and Uylesses who apparently hanged out with you discovered a pre-war military complex and Yulesses developed a sort of one man religion for the sugar-sweet kiss of American heavy ordinance and started to obsess over symbolism of the current political situation in Vegas.
Because of reasons, you come back to the Divide with a detonator of sort (ED-E?) and triggered a few nukes in there, killing everyone except you and Ylessus and making Ulyssus mad as hell. Ulysses, true to Caesar (why does he pronounce his name wrong, isn't a Frumentarii a high enough rank to know the real pronounciation?) thought to himself, "Fuck Vegas, imma jump ship to join the "Old, Nuked America"-faction!" because The Divide still apparently has live, working nukes.
NCR and Legion sometime afterwards both try to recon the area (how does the Legion manage to do this when the whole of NCR is between them and the Divide?) but they die from sandstorms, the tunnelers and the radiation(which keeps them alive because reasons).

Odysseus now wants to exact revenge on you but doesn't want to admit it, so he waits for the Mojave and its inhabitants to kill you, but it doesn't. His plan B is now to make the Courier, you, come to back to the Divide for the third time and remind you that you nuked the place for a reason never explained and possibly have the Divide kill you on the way if that's all right for the Divide. And if(when) that doesn't happen, he tells you about his attempt to nuke Vegas because you nuked the Divide, NRC first because of his Legion bias. And also kill you right after launching the nuke because the two things happening at once is pretty neat, actually
So his grand master plan basically boils down to channeling Senator Armstrong and just nuke America again so that from the ashes a new America will be born etc etc.

In conclusion: Fuck Ulysses. He's nothing more than a glorified whiner with access to nukes. Nuking NCR is not a good way to fix the political situation of Vegas

The NCR had a big military presence in the Divide which was becoming a home for Ulysses, the wanted to destroy the nuclear weapons in the Divide so you (still a Courier) brought a nuclear detonator (the one you use) to set of large amounts of nuclear explosives and fuck up the Divide. You come back on request of Ulysses so he can receive answers from you and get revenge.

Airborne FEV is one of the only reasons humanity is still doing as well as it is. More adaptation, more biodiversity.

Only drawback is it makes everything else bigger and scarier.

It's also the reason why most Super Mutants are fucking retards.

Exposure to airborne FEV inoculates the patient to the original strain, so it screws up the transformation process. This was a major plot point in FO1.

Can someone help me with character building in Fallout 2? Started playing this morning and got about 3 hours in before realizing I didn't have enough strength to use a rifle. What are some of the minimum stats you need to make life easier?

>>151042541
A frumentarii sounds like the more interesting build, I don't know if you plan on using melee or guns but thrown weapons seems like it would be a cool backup to have.

>>151042541
I don't know which side a super strong idiot would go?

Yesman and House offer basic services (power and money respectively) yet their grand visions and manner of speaking would but an idiot off.

Legion and NCR would appeal to a persons basic sense of morality, even if the NCR are corrupt and the Legion are fighting for "the greater good". The player would have to decide if their character is "stupid but with a heart of gold" or "stupid and likes smashing things"

>>151039356
both Avellone and Tim Cain have expressly denied the existence of airborne FEV.

And Neither Fallout 3, Nv, or 4 work on the premise that it exists

>>151038894
Mississippi has never been visited or talked about in Fallout.

Out of all of the post-war U.S., everything from the states of Texas and Oklahoma, all the way to the Carolinas and Florida, represent the last unvisited, or talked about, frontier of Fallout

>>151045331
Not entirely true. North Carolina was hinted at in Point Lookout, but this is purely based on speculation.

Then you have the canceled BoS sequel set in Florida, of which the only image we have is of a deadclaw like alligator.

>>151045548
> North Carolina was hinted at in Point Lookout, but this is purely based on speculation.
I've also seen some pretty good speculation that the Broken Banks are actually in south Carolina, as it fits more with Fallout 3 and Fallout 4's locations, among other things

Its not mistaken, no one knows were it is.

Most people assume its in north Carolinas due too
>Broken Banks = Outer Banks

But theres also some speculation that its in Charleston South Carolina, as Charleston is
A. An old city(like D.C. and Boston)
B. Full of historical landmarks(like D.C. and Boston)
C. Somewhat centered on the lower third of the east coast(like D.C. was to the central third, and Boston was to the upper third)

>>151006767
Going to have to agree with this guy. As a Philadelphian, I feel Philly needs more representation in games and media in general.

>>151049414
-LA became the Boneyard

-San Fran is the home of the Shi

-Las Vegas became New Vegas

-Salt Lake City was destroyed entirely

-Denver was abandoned and overrun by dogs

-Tuscon became Two-Sun

-Phoenix isn't really mentioned except for in one guys name, and an offhand quote from Graham about it just being metal and stone

-No one knows whats going on in Seattle/Portland

-Chicago is the home to the Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel, who managed to reach St Louis, Indianapolis, Kansas City, and most of the Midwest in general.

-Minneapolis was apparently destroyed by at least three massive nuclear bombs.

-Washing D.C. became the Capital Wasteland

-Boston became The Commonwealth

-Toronto became Ronto

-Pittsburgh became The Pitt

-Philly and NYC are described as being in ruins, "that dump", and seemingly infested by raiders and mutants of all kinds.

-No one really knows too much about whats going on in the south

There, most every major America city post war

>>151050149
Sounds to me that there really isn't any place where the land is desolate and lifeless, except maybe the Pacific Northwest (before it was settled by Khans) and that Post-War America is really just in a state of anarchy as opposed to being archaic.

I'm new to the fallout generals, why is there a /cfog/ and a /fog/, was there a ton of infighting like how /gsg/ has had over certain games being talked about so much they should have their own generals, or was it all civil?

>>151050149
I know you said major cities, but give a shout out to Reno and Flagstaff,

>>151050342
Well
-The NCR controls California, southern Oregon, and north western Nevada, as well as parts of Baja.

-The Legion controls Arizona, New Mexico, most of Colorado, and parts of Utah.

-No one is REALLY sure on the state of the Midwestern Brotherhood, though hey still seemingly keep their patrols across the Midwest, and likely have tamed the region since they defeated most of the raiders, hostile super mutants, and the forces of the Calculator back in Tactics.

-Maxson and his BoS chapter have taken control of The Capital Wasteland, and have been slowly spreading their power across the eastern seaboard since them. They likely control Baltimore as well, given its literally right next door.

-And OFC as part of Fallout 4 you help one of the 4 factions bring peace to The Commonwealth.

So its not really THAT bad off.

The northwest is kinda empty, but everywhere else has some form of order and control to it.

Except the south, since we have no idea whats going on there

>>151050627
To keep it brief, yes their was infighting, games are divergent enough that we're better off seperate

>>151050627
What happend was a lot of New Vegas people didn't like Fallout 4 so they left FoG and made threads on /v/ every day to the point the mods got angry and made them thier own general so they would stop spamming /v/

>>151050627
-NVfags aren't happy with how /fog/ was, and made fairly regular FNV threads on /v/
-/v/ mod just says "fuck it" and moves one of the threads to /vg/
-Everyone here just decides to make it an actual general
/fog/ is old, /cfog/ is only a couple days old.
NVfags and 4fags hate each other so there was tons of fighting/shitposting before, and some autist who made /ifog/, but it's pretty good at the moment.

>>151050627
/fog/ became about mods and waifus instead of actual Fallout discussion.
/cfg/ is for people who prefer the older fallouts (Fallout, Fallout 2) and New Vegas (developed and written by members of the original Black Isle team)

>>151050627
This is the sewage runoff receptacle. It's working well so far.

>>151050627
Generals only talk about the newest or upcoming releases of the franchise they are attached to. /fog/ is not exception to the rule, despite being the "Fallout" general.

For about three months there has been daily threads on /v/ discussing New Vegas, and each time these threads clocked a shit load of responses. Last week a mod moved the unofficial NV thread over to /vg/ and thus, /cfog/ was born.

There wasn't any infighting. /fog/ is happy in its own little waifu world, and we are happy here. Ever so often you'd get some F3 shitposter, but thats inevitable.

>>151050883
On 4chan, the best way to get what you want is to spam a board until someone quarantines you. Seemed to work pretty well for /vp/ and /mlp/.

>tfw I get sad about Van Buren again
Fuck this

If I made a Fallout game, I'd have it take place deeper into Legion territory. The NCR captures the Dam, Mr House still maintains control over New Vegas, and Caesar lives. The story would involve the NCR creeping ever so closely to the Legion capital, Flagstaff, where Caesar decides to make a last stand, summoning members of every tribe under his iron fist. The Westernmost side of the map would have NCR CP's and patrols, while the Easternmost side of the map would have Flagstaff, which will have statues and coins with Caesar's likeness on them.
I'd do away with the stupid settlement building mechanic and other wastes of disk space so more resources can be devoted to having a larger map and a bigger and more populated Flagstaff.

>>151051043
>each time these threads clocked a shit load of responses
I think this was my favorite thing about those threads. Almost all of them hit bump limit and got archived. And the ones that didn't hit bump limit still got about 300+ replies.

>>151049856
I very highly doubt we will see Philly in a Fallout game.

According to Fallout 3, Philly is "in ruins" and "that dump".

And when Lord Ashur of The Pitt compared his city to the other large cities of the post-war east coast, he compares it to D.C., Boston, and Toronto, making no mention of Philly.

Philly is seemingly just ruins, and nothing more.

>>151050149
Didn't lonesome road confirm there was a Enclave Outpost in Chicago?

Here's how it goes;

The Divide had a lot of resources and towns, so NCR and Legion wanted it. NCR looted Navarro (Enclave base) and discovered some kind of device that matched the markings of the military bases in the divide. You, a courier, deliver it and hundreds of nukes that failed to fire during the war detonate, turning NCR/Legion into Marked Men and raising the tunnelers from underground (They had already existed before the second nuking).

Ulysses, believing the people of the Divide could become greater than the Legion (His former faction) and more powerful than the NCR, became obsessed with symbols and pre-war America, as it was medical Eyebots bearing the flag that saved his life.

>>151054714
Depends if you roll with companions and hardcore mode. It's a point dump personally because I don't normally have high strength, because it makes the game too easy and too unbelievable if I have a high carry weight.

>>151054714
While speech and barter are important, you can easily have those both at a relatively high level early on, and that'll let you get the ball rolling for energy/melee/guns.
