Since they don’t have ranged weapons they are weak
Their adorable, and deadly. Would definitely want one as a camp ally in the future.
Hey there wasteland, this is Mr. New Vegas coming to you to give you people another question...
I got one that you might like. What are your thoughts on Fallout 76? Win or Loss?
A loss in the beginning, but a win now.
Pretty much what Pseron said, it’s becoming good for more worldbuilding in general now.
It’s still a bit of a loss with the dropped player base and micro-transactions
Although of course they add micro-transactions because the game is 8$ when it’s on sale
Still I have to imagine the game is doing well enough for it to be continuing after 5 Years, that’s brand power for ya
i like it because fallout, but junk in fallout being behind paid and the lack of text chat are huge huge drawbacks for me
still play sporadically tho
Fallout new Vegas is extremely difficult to mod
It’s really hard to get blender to work with nifs
How the hell do you even move the camera in blender 2.49
You'll have better success posting in #fallout-4-mods or #1067505929534320700
True. If people say a games awful, but it's still being played years later, is it really awful?
Yes because even awful games have fans that will play the heck out of it.. while some cases its ''So bad its good'' in a ironic way making it still awful but enjoyable to a select group... Not saying Fallout 76 is awful but I have no plans to play it as I ain't a mmo or multiplayer sort of guy
The word "awful" is a very subjective word. One player's "awful game" can be another player's "best game ever made."
True that is true
Modern Warfare 3
The replayability of a game and if it is bad or good are completely irrelevant to each-other
RAGE is up too 😂
I tried playing it, it just did not have much to offer
I was shocked when the id guy they were interviewing back in 2014(13?) Said Rage 2 was a thing.
Is there a way I can remove all my data from fallout new vegas on PS5?
You can delete every save
Is that what you mean?
I was hoping there would be a way faster way, but I suppose I can do that yeah
rhode island based fallout game would be so fun. bring back the italian mafia!!!!!! give them back providence place mall and hasbro!!! give the native americans fort wetherill!!! drown westerly entirely!!! get rid of it!!! (except for taylor swifts house that can be its own island)!!! big blue bug cultists!!!! make the wood river junction nuclear accident even worse and make all of washington county either unlivable or completely underwater!!!! underwater vault opportunity!!!
unrelated but i can’t believe the east coast is sinking!!!! now RI towns have to fix all those bridges they’ve been avoiding fixing for decades …. 😞 i hope fallout happens irl soon!!!!!!! i’ve always wanted to live on the beachside ^_^
There wouldn’t be a Hasbro
It would probably be called Fallout Providence and it would extend to Connecticut and eastern Massachusetts
Christ, this fallout lore youtuber I was listening too just mentioned hesitation to like Fallout TV show because of Rings of Power, like goodness gracious man, different writers and different circumstances of production entirely separate with only Amazon Prime Video being the connection.
Btw the writers for the Fallout TV show are Jonathan Nolan who helped write Dark Knight Rises, Interstellar, Dark Knight, and co-created Westworld, so he's got skill with unique and exciting takes on science fiction. And the other being Lisa Joy, also co-creator of Westworld. So it's not a bad writing team.
It appears that Fallout technology is becoming real. Fusion power breakthroughs, nuclear batteries, artificial humans, and even an underground skyscraper and science facility. Should I be worried?
just do what the doom slayer would do
time to begin a survival training....?
and become a courier
We could run out of petrol in 2050. If the UN disbands, then we should be worried.
I am concerned that the bombs will fall in 2027 (or earlier) instead of 2077.
we are dammned then
What have I done? All I did was make a comment on how Fallout technology is becoming real and jokingly wondered if technological advancement will lead to nuclear war, and the next thing we know someone is doomposting!
up here lol
Huh?!
you are talking about the gif up there?
No, you saying we’re doomed/d****d and suggesting I build a bunker.
oh forget. i guess i am lost in the talk then.
i will shut now.
2 things... 1. Does anyone actually use energy weapons? I feel they are mostly weak and I just collect and sell the ammo for bank.
2. I hope any new fallout(I haven't played 4 yet) will start to make missions that are specific to weapons and maybe a bit of planning. I just feel like I'm being rushed by enemies everything except on the odd occasion I get to use the sniper rifle. Bit I'm running around with mines that to be honest. The best time was when I was dropping then off a cliff edge on to some dumb ass radscorps that couldn't get me.. obvs I throw grenades every now and then. I just feel the weakness of guns is on a plateau. I do like the randomness of what you find and when but it seems I'm just using the same weapons all the time really. Fallout vegas even more vague in damage output.. or maybe its possible I'm just not playing it right
Guys, which is the best fallout new vegas companion?
i am currently using E-DE and Boone
Veronica.. give her amour and a rifle but whe will also use ballistic fist which is awesome
Cass
For no reason.
Trying to play Fallout 4 on the pc
suprised to learn it cannot play at 1080p and only loads at 800x600
I don't disagree with you, but even the best writers are still beholden to Producers and Company boards. They need to be given the freedom to make a great story before they can.
I had Cass as a companion....but ehh....she gets unconscious too easily in a battle (i dunno if i am stupid or what).....it remembers the time I was wiping the Van Graafs out of the existence and I stood alone with E-DE fighting 🥲
I guess I have one of the worse gaming setups here
An old dell inspiron 15(?) Laptop, 1tb storage, 4gbs ram and a core I3 processor
, then screen definitions doesn't matter that much for me....
But I wanted to play Fo4 soooooo bad......like REALLY BAD
I can't get Fo4 to run full screen correctly and it is crashing when trying to enter loading screens
I was excited to play it to since I just finished FONV for the first time, but just requested a refund on it as nothing I try is working for FO4
It happens with Fo3 for me
I will try mods
Good luck with that, I went through a whole suite of them, trying every different variation to get it stable
But I guess the problem is me, because NV runs REALLY smooth without mods
I am by NCR's side, hbu?
I went Yes man and talked my way into ruling the strip. Will replay some time with a more fighty character
Oops....got a warning...I'm so dumb
Geoffrey (my courier) is pretty calm, but he wasn't supposed to be like that
Still, I am just happy I found this old DVD of mods for Morrowind. Most of them are not online any more, and I was sad to see Bethesda nuked their forums so you can't see the older stuff there or get support any more
The thing is though is that it’s sometimes a double edged sword
More freedom for creatives? It's a gamble sure, but the odds are much better when it comes to getting a good show that way.
Maybe but I think the line should be drawn to be able to do something new as long as it makes sense and works within the world itself
I'm excited for the show, but I don't have Amazon Prime, just Netflix
Anyone else is?
I have my hopes for the show, but it’s still a few months away
We deleted all threads and posts in 2009, so even if the forums existed you wouldn't be able to access anything written between 2000 and 2009. Some pages are available on the Wayback Machine site though. I believe they have archived pages as far back as 2003.
Is there any way to stop the mouse point to going outside of the game window in fallout? I've never seen a game where the mouse can just wonder off outside of the game once it's locked in properly but this seems to be a common issue in create engine games...
my fallout 3 crashes every time I load it up, I have never played before, how do you fix it? (I also have a no gore mod installed, if thats the issue)
You have to make sure you get all of the unofficial patch mods and stabilizer mods otherwise the game is unstable
its not that it crashes easily, its that it does not even launch
Also, I got it on Epic Games for free
I can't imagine it's going to load then I'm afraid,
Try some of the steps listed here: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/57333
Happens to me too
I forgot to install the FoNV DLC's 
Who's ready for Fallout London??
War never changes, but that sure doesn’t stop Appalachia from mutating! Later in 2024, we’re expanding our map southward, deep into the wooded heartland of Shenandoah. This uncharted, once-tranquil expanse in the heart of Virginia will bring a new questline, factions and rewards.
Wow… never thought I’d see a proper map expansion
Honestly? Likewise, it's a great development though! We'll just have to wait and see if it makes it this year and what sort of scale it is.
That seems to be the implication, nothing about it being an expedition so far, even then I only expect DLC Map size akin to previous fallout games
is fallout new vegas ever getting remastered on fallout 4 and 76's engine
there is fallout 4: new vegas tho
Modders recreating by scratch
NV runs on the hopes and dreams that anyone who had anything to do with Fallout 1 & 2 would ever make a Fallout again.
Yep. And a miracle that it plays with barely no QA and the time they were given.
I think it's only the 3rd game Obsidian has had to fart out building off of an alpha build of an engine.
Make it to the strip alive, then decide who should control it.
Obv this will never happen but if it ever did I’d be frothing out the mouth
I found the Cottonwood Radiation barrel truck 
Dump it
It did nothing but kill 2 mongrels and piss off 5 Primes
I guess the named character died in his sleep too I guess, cool machete
Also the slaves too but oh well, nobody else knew they were there so my crimes against humanity are hidden 
Maybe we can get a fallout 5 trailer before GTA 6 🤔
Unlikely as GTA 6 is already been announced.
Pretty sure he meant release date
Well a Fallout 5 teaser deadline is June 1st-12th 2024 for the Xbox Showcase
It's what they did for 4 and 76, 3 was July
Rockstar doesn't release a trailer unless they intend to launch a year later. There is no way they will announce and launch a new Fallout in that timespan.
Okay, so you need to read. That's not being rude cause you misunderstand what he posted. He said Fallout 5 trailer.
Were getting TES6 before a Fo5, it's only natural they finish cooking previous projects before moving to the next big one.
A trailer/teaser is a snippet of what's to come and as before mentioned, teaser to a new a game release.
Luckily Bethesda ain't Activision where "Millions must crunch, a new CoD will release", 6 months post-trailer
(MW3 was a confirmed crunch as previous games take 3-4 years to cook, MW3 took 2)
Ok, but a teaser isn't a trailer. And if we get anything it would be a teaser. I just don't see it as likely.
Holy pedantics will you move on.
It takes a day to kill them all off
That's 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 seconds too slow. I will not let the Weathers family unconditional sacrifice be in vain!
It's Barbarian hours and Cottonwood looking like a Rome rn
Just be like Nero and burn the city down
Maybe Khans kill people without looking them in the face, but I ain't a fink, dig?
Wow, so I'm in Vault 34 armory, yoinking everything and then the All American but the unique gun is missing, the Glowing Ones I lured out of the room to avoid them from throwing items everywhere with their aoe and I'm perplexed "did the All american phase through the floor mid-loading in? So as I continue to check, I decide to dump my over encumbered inventory into Boone.. guess what I find in his inventory.
The All American, goddamnit Boone.

Dead Money is a double edged sword, amazing storytelling but the gameplay is so tedious
General problem with the dlcs tbh is that the enemies can be tedious… except Lonesome Road surprisingly
I was surprised how easy Lonesome Road was
💀
Scam link?
yes definately the account has prob been hacked
I like Honest Hearts, didn't played the other ones
I hope Lonesome Road is really that good
I thought it was alright but it’s kinda obvious that Joshua Graham carried the dlc
Get the other ones first and then do lonesome road last
I thought I would het sick of Lonesome Road but it was actually really nice
I made the mistake of entering Lonesome Road with a lvl 5 courier
You already have it
think we will get a show trailer today since its the xbox game event thing?
Any recommendations?
At least on the gameplay, guns....?
The Red Glare is useless unless you have really high explosive
There is Riot Gear around the map
Sniper rifles are your friend also it is easy to get scared
And what are the best guns to use there? Brought from the mojave wastelands ofc
Like a top 5
Carbine Repeater
Carbine Repeater is all around just the best early on weapon
I don’t know if you can beat the enemies with it tho
You can always leave if you are under leveled
Vats + luck + hope I don't screw up, then?
When I first started to play New Vegas I was so dumb....then I learn how to do it right after dying more than 10 times
I love using the Sniper rifle (at least on fallout 3)
Facts, the first part is great but the holograms? Nah.
I'm gonna have a long chat with the Thinktank, propose my scientific thesis.
What does a 12 gauge pulse do to a brain in a jar.
Unarmed build is goated
I tried it with the ranger takedown and I dunno, the whole backstep power attack to trigger isn't exactly easy unless you're used to that style of gameplay, I tell ya, I ain't one to get caught unarmed infront of a deathclaw pounce
As cool as ragdolling it would be
power fist
I cleared out deathclaw valley on very hard with a power fist
I used a gun cause I'm not unhealthy
I used a spoon 🥄
Only a spoon full
wrong server
Clearing out Deathclaw Promontory is hell
I don't wanna use explosives to avoid flinging the prospector bodies and guns so I had to clear it by gun...
i never come close
Well, the 2d20 game is a bit enjoyable.
No matter how many times I play Dead Money, I will always hate the Vault section with a passion
Why? It’s probably the least infuriating part of Dead Money
I need a name for my new character fo4
Speakers and hologram projectors
Homo Erectus
Reject humanity, return to monke
He looks like an ompa loompa and a monkey where fused together and given steroids
Huh.. it was easy, I guess I've grown as a gamer cause that part always felt like 5D chess in the past
Noice, easy win and 37 gold bars rich
As someone who never likes to carry empty handed
Seeing all those gold bars is like torture
The trick is a stealthboy
This is where hindsight and guides will get you. "Why did that seem so much easier than I remember?"
I want a fallout 5 so badly
When?
I wish Bethesda would use USPS and not UPS, those idiots are sending poor Dinky all over the country. He was supposed to arrive yesterday, but right now, he's in Spokane. By the end of this, that Dinosaur will have visited more of the US than I have.
Surprisingly, I've never had a bad experience with the post office, only third party carriers like UPS and FedEx.
You could always try my technique: take bars, load up stairs where Elijah comes down with proximity traps like mines and gas bombs, and continuously walk into forcefield as Elijah comes through, as he steps out, the mines will detonate, killing him, and ragdolling you through the forcefield. It's dumb and it barely works, but it does work.
Same lol
I read somewhere that if you were to get in contact with the f76 support team and asked for something in the atom shop that isn’t in the rotation, they’ll give it to you as long as you have enough atoms. Am I wrong?
OWB got me on that skill check spree
Malice
Ngl I feel evil
I think I just destroyed Dr. 8
Almost as bad as the time I tormented Milly in The Pitt DLC
I love OWB, but it's SO much dialogue.
The dialogue is the best part
Brotherhood > all factions
Overrated imo
Great Khans is were it’s at
Mongol cosplayers with drugs
That’s my kind of people
its a little overrated but still my favorite faction
Hey whats up you guys
Glad there's another Khan appreciator. If only Obsidian had been allowed more time to flesh them out. ||Or given them a DLC instead of OWB.||
People have been complaining about the BOS getting shoed Into all the new games,but no one talks about thesda's real shoe-in: ||nuka cola quantum ||
You're right, though
hi, how are you???? im crying about legendary scripts, why the mole miners that you buy dont give you legendary scripts,,, please todd thing about that,,, see you
Oof the lay-offs
Does anyone have any recommendations for which order I should play the New Vegas DLCs?
Chronologically. Each DLC before Lonesome Road has elements and lore that builds up to it.
So Dead Money -> Honest Hearts -> Old World Blues -> Lonesome Road
Story wise. Honest Hearts, Old World Blues, Dead Money, and then Lonesome Road.
Honest Hearts is stand-offish to the rest because it’s a character-driven narrative based on Joshua Graham.
OWB, Dead Money, and Lonesome Road have an overarching narrative and are “meant to be played” in this order.
If you play it in this order, you are following the journey of the dlc-focused characters and Courier 1
They also get harder in this order
i made things from the fallout cookbook and want to show off where do i post them
Photos can be posted in #screenshots-and-video
🫡
Dead Money is definitely before Old World Blues. Part of Old World Blues is seeing the traces of characters introduced in Dead Money.
You're not the first to find the Big MT.
Thanks for the advice
Why would they do it like that?
That’s just messy writing, you don’t introduce characters and explain their backstory in a different paid dlc
You are following the footsteps of the characters by doing owb first
Simply part of why the DLCs were released in the order they were in, part you can find all the little lore traces in the Big MT that Elijah and the BoS girl offer. And of course some Ulysses lore tied in too.
They weren’t released in timeline chronological order
Yeah, but if you don't play Dead Money first what the ef do you care about these little marks in the world of OWB you find from DM characters? It's like "Eljiah who? What's with this holorifle?"
It’s why Honest Hearts came after Dead Money
I mean, why wouldn't that. Who release a sequel DLC out of order.
Because they finished production of dlcs at different times
It was all lined up to release one after another for like... four months? They weren't punching out a DLC a month. It was all done then dropped a month or two after another. With the GR and other extras being dropped immediately after LR.
There is literally a quest that hints at the Think Tank meeting the characters. You are supposed to care about the characters in owb.
I will remain in disagreement, as is Fallout fan tradition. Honest Hearts could probably go before or after Dead Money though, they're pretty unrelated.
The levels for the dlcs are completely off then
After checking my ass pulls here all the DLCs were dropped over an 11 month period. Still, OWB dropped 6 months after DM.
GRA best DLC though <3
Actually if the suggest level requirements differ I'll defer to that. Probably the best indication of intended play order.
Could've been DM got dropped first due to the pretty small map.
I think HH is 10, OWB is 15, Dead Money is 20, and Lonesome Road is anything above DM
is there any fallout 76 community discord channels?
I found a few but sadly the invitation links were expired
thank you
Idk if this is the right place, but can anyone help me get New Vegas full screen? I tried changing the FalloutPref file W/H to my screen resolution but it isn’t going full screen
I've finished playing through Honest Hearts, while I felt a bit overpowered as a lvl 40 Courier and an arsenal of firearms, it was the best DLC of the Fallout series, at least so far
Thanks Microsoft!
… did you play any of the other dlcs?
Why is there no Fallout New Vegas chat?
Fallout New Vegas was developed by Obsidian. This server is for games developed by Bethesda Game Studios.
There's no replacing the feeling of Joshua Graham putting a .45 in your hand and asking you to go pop off on White Legs with him.
I made a save and did Daniel's ending first. Kind of cowardly, ngl
Reloaded the save, slayed puss with Joshua, and dunked on Salt-Upon-Wounds with Dinnerbell and the shotgun perks that make shotguns broken
Typically I'm not one for religious fanatics, but Joshua was valid
It felt like the whole point of Daniel was to show that running away from people who really want you dead doesn't work. For better or worse, Joshua's approach is one where the ends justify the means.
I used to be an adventure like you until I took an arro- I mean miny nuke to the knee
Daniel's choice of peace when being put to the sword might be more Christian like but there wouldn't be any New Canaanites left.
I wish I picked up the weaponized racism perk so I could've called Salt-Upon-Wounds General Gobbledeegook
Hey guys, I found a mod for KLEO that so she can be your companion it's sooo awesome
Not surprise, players love KLEO.
Yeah I wonder why sarcastic
There should have been an option to boink KLEO
@river bloom do not put your fingers in the machines incase of injury
During my last Honest Hearts run I wondered why everyone was hostile to me including New Canaan. Then I realized that I had shot off Follow-Chalk's head before he blapped the last White Leg attacking me.
The whole DLC broke because Follow-Chalk ate a stray .357 to the face before doing his scripted kill.

Turns out if you do that the DLC fails to "okay, find this map item and just leave when you want."

Chalk stole my experience even though I emptied my All American into the last White Leg
I still loved his enthusiasm tho
One of the better written companions. He feels like an authentic tribal which I haven't felt since Fallout 2.
Hey is it normal for dog meant to just straight up die
Uh, give us more context.
The man just gave up on life.
Classic Bethesda
I loved him
Now I'm carrying his mantled corpse to Preston as a warning that no other settlements need my help
Aw, dogmeat. I thought you meant Dog from NV.
Im pretty sure there all called dogmeat
Dog in NV is a nightkin.
Oh ok I did no know
The actual dog companion in NV is Rex
Well I only really ever play fallout 4
NV and 3 are more RPG like
So I just didn't know I've been shouting his name for sooo long I just call every dog I see dogmeat
IIRC, every dog companion besides Rex is named Dogmeat
Even my irl dog is dogmeat
I've almost finished my nuka cola T-51 power armour cosplay I just need to tweet the lights a bit and boom I'm done
NPCs dying randomly is why I've only been able to do that quest for the guy fighting the mirelurks once, because he's been dead randomly ever since
My cosplay is now officially done
Nice
Yeah it looks awesome
Wanna see it
Ahhh you can't post pics
Shame reall shame
Well good night
I see you found your way here
😟
Lol I love how fallout games are like:
Fallout 1: Oh hi we have NCR and Brotherhood JOIN US
Fallout 2: POWER ARMOR
Fallout 3: ENCLAVE also SYNTH
Fallout: NV: I remember Sergeant Dornan - Cannibal Johnson also FNV: NCR
Fallout 4: Enclave no longer exists so why is the brotherhood here lol and the minutemen xd who are they and KELLOGG WAS IN NCR?!?!?!
And fallout tactics and fallout: bos are like
“Wait you guys existed?”
Give Tactics some love. BoS is the only one that's generally agreed upon as bad.
Fallout shelter: suffrage and heartbreak
Fallout tatics: no lore just game
are we allowed to talk about fallout new vegas here?
my friend told me he got banned from here for talking abou FNV 😦
You may discuss New Vegas here, or in #off-topic #fallout-lore #1067531111745462282 or #classic-mods I can assure you that your friend did not get banned for taklking about Fallout: New Vegas in this Discord.
i got muted for 6 hours in another server for sending a new vegas meme
so we on here now to talk about fallout
i’m doing a fallout dnd campaign for me and my friends that based in northern nevada in the year 2330 🗣️
fallout tactics got some cool story behind its just almost all of it got retconned
it gave a little back story as to how maybe the bos could of got the prydwen (or however you spell it) and it would of filled up the large void that is the midwest in the fallout universe
the endings are like fallout new vegas were you cna get several endings based of faction, karma and the likes. would of been cool but a lot of the games plot elements are very fallout-y so i’m fine with it not being a part of the current lore
Knowing the big B we'll get a Fallout: BoS remake for 5. 😭
Tactics sucked
To me at least
Not rlly. At least I don’t think so. Fallout 5 could be about like… let’s say a new location… The Sonoran Wasteland. Or Los Angeles.
We’ve had New Vegas. Why not have New Angeles?
Yeah but how did the Brotherhood end up getting Liberty Prime?
In fallout 3 and 4? Because wasn’t Prime contracted by RobCo and the US Army? And if so, that would mean that Mr. House would have been the one who had decided upon Prime’s development (along with the US Army). And if that’s true, why was there no mention of Prime in NV?
There was a non-cannon story for Fallout in which Los Angeles was referred to as "Lost Angeles". Most of the characters spoke of it like it was a ground 0. Which makes a kind of sense.
well i’m not sure, that has nothing to do with tactics. but, if i had to guess, mr house probably never mentioned it in NV because the project never finished/ was scrapped before he went into stasis, so he never would of known about it being used by the BoS in fallout 3.
los angeles is already an established location in fallout, it’s the boneyard in fallout 1
it’s a collection of settlements scattered across the city
Because New Angeles is the Boneyard
True
I’m replaying fallout one, and I’m about to throttle Ian’s neck lol, I got to the ||mutant military base and instead of shoot mutants I’m not focusing, he shoots me in the back, and stays close to me, so he keeps getting gunned down and blown up||… I see why people hate him
Game is fun tho, meele is underrated as heck
Because Fallout 1 was Fallout: Los Angeles. 
Fallout 1 is great, if only because it challenges you. There's no hand holding. Also my Ian happened to catch a burst through the spine after getting me kicked out of the Hub for shooting a cop with a stray bullet.
Ian really asked for it after locking me out of the Hub for the whole run.
Does anyone remember when Forza Motorsport 6 had the rocket?
I find tactics the easiest to play out of the iso games
Bro the action point system in the original 2 was busted
I get the turn based combat style but I could be fighting 2 raiders, fire 10 bullets, miss 8, and then the raiders peel off like 50 shots and miss only 2 times
So true
Just beat one btw, like right now, after owning the game for 3 years I finally beat it
Onto fallout 2!!!
(Would have been more enthusiastic, but the bot flagged the caps lol)
Yea HtH is definitely more fun, cause you actually hit what’s in front of you
Yeah
Ngl I knew how the game ending, I was a lil shocked on how it ended spoiler> ||I wasn’t expecting my guy to gun down the overseer||
Edit: oh man, I got that cause of bad karma???? How?! I went outta my way multiple times to help settlements survive
I've heard that Fallout 1 is the tutorial for 2 and I wholeheartedly agree.
Yea, last boss of fallout 1 < 2 spore plants in the starting town
bros if someone can fallout 3 is $1.49 for and my country banned paying in any non-egyptian platforms, for if someone can gift me the game on steam I'll be thankful, many people told me to pirate it but that's not the right way to play it, anyway thank you
Right way to play it?
yes, it's illegal, it will not be fun
does anyone else hate Yes Man? like i usually think he is very chirpy and optimistic about everything, but then people say he is just being sarcastic? so like, so it was all a lie? i liked him being all happy and go luck with my choices, maybe he sometimes sounds off because he is a robot, but he wouldnt make fun of me with his own words, right? i dont know, people always say he is sarcastic with you and thats why i dont trust him anymore, i cant feel the sarcasm well because he never shows explicit hate, so i dont like him
Yes man is my Pookie, don't talk bad about him.
whos that
Wdym
Yes man is just awful
He’s like an eccentric muggy who’s not obsessed with mugs and he’s too naive to know what’s right
Yes Man is the only faction I have ever sided with
He’s like “if we kill everyone then humanity will have no problems!”
NCR is the best NV faction imo
They still resemble somewhat of a government similar to prewar society
The NCR get annoying though
They’re the most organized when it comes to politics
I'd rather side with mr house than the NCR
The remnants are just bad and the legion is pure evil and yes man is just… like what kind of name is “Yes Man” anyways
He can only say yes, that's his name
Right
That’s his weakness; he is too naive to know what’s right for everybody so he just says yes to everyone
Besides I don’t think I would murder a however old inventor, genius, and someone who actually tried to save Las Vegas by firing counter missiles at the nukes
That's how Benny programmed him
Benny didn't like being told no so he made Yes man only say yes
Yea, and that's why I love him
I’d rather be iron-clad in a cool looking suit of armor than having Swank play checkers on my chest
I like talking my way out of situations
Lol
And talking my way into situations
I always level my speech and bartering first
You're dumber than air
Lol
And you make a normal conversation sound like a hostage situation
Xd but somehow passes all speech checks with Lanius
Lol
courier: explaining quantum physics
Lanius: visible confusion
I love it when you make the most stupid character, but they end up becoming op
Yeye
I want a NV remake
I want a Bethesda one. Not a mod
Still
I doubt Bethesda will return to NV bc NV wasn’t even their original idea
It was made by Obsidian then Bethesda practically bought it
Yea, poor Obsidian
And it was originally called Fallout Sin City. You can see that in the NV guidebook where it includes “A map of Sin City”
Never knew that
That's weird
Ik lol
I thought it was always New Vegas
Nope
Does Obsidian still make any games?
I don’t know
yes
They might have went out of business bc of NV. Idrk
Oh srsly?
or...i think i read somewhere not long ago that obsidian was currently making something
Cool
just checked, seems they are working on Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed
They announced Outer Worlds 2
Cool
I just started playing Fallout New Vegas My Arc 770 graphics is up to date windows10 up to date. It just keeps crashing when I'm in the game playing.
I fixed my crashing by installing an updated d3d9.dll available on GitHub for download, here: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases. Scroll down to the file named dxvk-2.3.tar.gz, and download it. That file contains d3d.dlls for all the various .dlls (9, 10, 11, etc.). You want only the d3d9.dll for NV, because it's a d3d9 game. You install it in the location where the existing d3d9.dll is located for NV. Rename the old d3d9.dll to something like d3d9OLD.dll, in case the newer one doesn't work for you. In that case, you can then just remove the OLD part and go back to where you were before. The download is a compressed file, so you have to uncompress it. The new .dll may still crash the game, but not nearly as much, at least that's the case for me. It makes the game playable.
I'm unable to find the existing d3d9.dll
Is it in redists Folder?
My Fallout New Vegas is installed on C:\Program Files (x86)\steam\Steam\Steam apps\Common\Fallout New Vegas -> It's in here. Yours May be installed elsewhere, depending where you bought it. I'm on PC running Win 11. If you still can't find it, use Search. After you install the new .dll, it may run jerky for minute or 2 until i your computer gets adjusted using it. I also have an Arc 770 graphics card.
OK, I'm at the Fallout NV folder. downloaded the dxvk-2.3.tar.gz extracted, I see the d3d9.dll. so I just dropped that folder in Fallout NV folder I still don't see the existing d3d9.dll😅
Install the normal DirectX runtimes from Microsoft's site. Also use the NVAC plugin because New Vegas loves to crash regardless, Intel GPU or not.
Plus this GitHub release is designed for use in tandem with Linux, not Windows. A hacked up .dll meant for Vulkan support is probably best avoided.
Thank you. This way is simple.
Is it DirectX 11 ?
DirectX And doesn't need to be in the same disk Where the game is at?
The Microsoft DirectX® End-User Runtime installs a number of runtime libraries from the legacy DirectX SDK for some games that use D3DX9, D3DX10, D3DX11, XAudio 2.7, XInput 1.3, XACT, and/or Managed DirectX 1.1. Note that this package does not modify the DirectX Runtime installed on your Windows OS in any way.
You need to install d3d9.dll, because it's a d3d9 game. Yes, it needs to be installed where the existing d3d9.dll is installed. You need to find it, the original one, and rename it, as indicated. You shouldn't have two d3d9.dlls installed for the same game, in the sane place. The d3d9.dll you downloaded works just fine, because I'm using it. You don't need to avoid it. It's made to work with Linux to run Windows games, so it also works in Windows. Get it? Try it. If it doesn't work for you, don't use it. I have no idea why you can't find the d3d9.dll that came with the game. Maybe you're not looking in the right folder?
The .dll still depends on the whole runtime in the background. The .dll is not DirectX.
I got it downloaded. That's it Don't have to do anything else with that?
having issues in new vegas, am i in the right place for that?
Run it of course, when it finishes reboot because old software loves that, then try running NV again. If it whines about the .dll being missing again you search your PC for wherever the redistributable put d3d9.dll then copy it to your main NV folder where the NV .exe is.
DX9 has gotten to the point where it's old enough to be getting troublesome.
Which, the NV .exe, like @snow merlin said will very likely be at C:\Program Files (x86)\steam\Steam\Steam apps\Common\Fallout New Vegas for you.
Is it bad that I like Fallout 3 more than MechWarrior 5? Too many bad design decisions in MW5, requiring a bunch of mods to make the salvage and reputation systems sane.
Naw, Fallout 3 is still a solid title even if it lives in the shadows of NV and 4. Mechwarrior hasn't been good since the original Mercenaries. 
If you are having issues with gameplay, this is a good place to post. If your issue is hardware related you may have better success posting in #fallout-support
Question from an outsider: do you think that the ability to summon any non weapon, fusion core powered or living thing from Fallout is useless?
As in thru the use of console commands?
Cause if that's the case, then yes for the average user, but if you're a modder or use mods alot, then no, as it can help diagnose issues when making or using mods, and having access to everything under the sun can help immensely
I mean irl
I know, stupid question.
As in some sort of superpower to summon fallout items into IRL.
Like snappin' your fingers and a nuka cola appears at your feet.
Don't worry, rads are cleaned by the summoning process.
No
Yesn't
Nup.
favorite ghoul charcater
in all fallout
Probably Gob. He has a remarkably cheerful outlook on life, considering that he is essentially a slave. I'm also tickled by the fact that Mike Rosson, who voiced the character, based his performance on Patty and Selma from The Simpsons.
mine are xerxo and zao
Dean Domino.
I’ve been looking all over the internet for the code of Fnv blackjack. I love the blackjack in Fnv and wanted to bring it with me when I wasn’t at home playing Fnv. I can’t find it tho. I’m hoping to get the code for it so I can put the code into notepad++ and then play Fnv blackjack on my pc. Anyone know where I can find it?
how is summoning nonviolent non power core objects from fallout into IRL is not a useless superpower.
Fusion Cores
That's what I mean by power core
Hancock
He is by far the coolest ghoul
He’s so laid back
How is that useless?
Hancock is the best ghoul, I change my answer
I stated those were excluded, same as weapons "Question from an outsider: do you think that the ability to summon any non weapon, (non, should have put another non here) fusion core powered or nonliving thing from Fallout is useless?"
I still wouldn’t get how that’s useless
Mr. Handys, Assaultrons, Power Armor, Liberty Prime , Vertibirds
How would those work without the cores?
Spawn the cores
Oh I got what you mean
We recently got nuclear batteries
Also you can spawn microfusion cells
Microfusion cells for what exactly?
Just imagine how fast you'd get snatched by Uncle Sam for summoning Fallout items out of thin air.
Homie would spend the rest of his life spawning Vertibirds and power armor for the military.
When are they going to update falllout
Someone said that fallout 5 was being worked on now. I know they're obviously gonna make it cause of how popular fallout is. But is it true they are working on the 5th game now? Or is it still in the planning or waiting phases?
I heard that they’re not developing fallout 5 until after they’ve released TES VI, which is going to come out after Starfield (which has already been released)
But that’s only what I heard so it may not be true
Wait they planned for tes6 after starfield? Does that mean we not get any new bethesda game studio games for a long ass time?
I think
FO5 has probably been in pre-production for a bit. If not in full. This kind of thing is never released to the public though. Just look at the number of posts asking about the next-gen update for 4. There are proably even a couple of games we don't know about in pre-production as well.
Still
This is probably accurate. According to recent interviews about half of the team is still on Starfield (as of the date of the interviews). The other half is hard at work on TES VI. But it's almost certain that a few people have begun to draw concept art and come up with preliminary ideas for factions, NPCs and storylines for Fallout 5.
Fallout 5 in 2030...
Eewww
No ew wtf
Yesh
I mean it will be published during that time...
If we get ES6 next year that would track.
Day 1 on gamepass and year 2 on playstation I think
Isn't that good...
Only bad if you have a playstation
I play on Series S
But I have an idea, what if Covenant designed themselves around Tranquility Lane?
The premises are almost identical; small communities of people that are seemingly nice, but there’s more than meets the eye
Working on a mod for FO4
HEY guys, im currently going to play fallout with the fixt mod for the first time, im hyped XD
Y’all I’ve got a question
You know how you can see CHIP cars in FNV
I wonder what cop cars in fallout 4 would look like
What’s CHIP
okay so i only got to the first town yet but i stop there since i want to go back to one of my fav game haha
California highway patrol
CHP for short but Californians call them CHIPS
California Highway Interstate Patrol
Yup

For real!
I like Fallout 4, but it’s just too weird for me. Like, I can’t even join the army irl even if I wanted to because I have hearing loss, which makes it a little strange to dive into because I cannot relate. Fallout 3 is neat because I’m pretty sure you can have hearing aids as ‘jewelry’ on your character.
That’s just me though.
Wow Pseron, you must have a deeply rooted hatred of Tactics to rate it below Brotherhood.

Fallout Protagonists Be Like
Vault Dweller: I battled a ghoulish mutant machine thingy
Chosen One: I fought the Enclave’s biggest, baddest guy
Lone Wanderer: Well I single handedly destroyed the Enclave
The Courier: The dam, you idiot!
Sole Survivor: Codsworth go brrrrr
Fallout 2
Fallout: New Vegas
Fallout 4
Fallout 1
Fallout 3
Fallout Tactics
Fallout: BOS
Best to remember that 1 is the tutorial for 2. Playing 2 first can be a rough beginning. Plus the Fallout 1 manual is 121 pages long, pretty much a huge lore document.
Where is Shelter?
Fallout New Vegas
Fallout 3
Fallout 4
Fallout 76
Not played any of the others at this time.
The best things each fallout game has imo:
Fallout - Best style/graphics
Fallout 2 - Best characters
Fallout 3 - Best DLCs
Fallout: NV - Best story
Fallout 4 - Best quests
(Or well up until fallout 4)
What I want Fallout 5 to have is a race selection system. So you aren’t forced to play as just a human. You could be human, ghoulish, a super mutant, etc
Okay got it, play 1 first
If it has microtransactions it is dead to me.
Imao
It does
My favorites in order:
- Fallout 3 ‼️
- Fallout New Vegas ‼️

- Bos this is the only one I really dislike
Tactics exists as well
I never played it so that's why it is excluded
Will you ever try it?
Yes I think it deserves a chance
Hey just wondering does anyone know how to help fix the bug that keeps you 70% on the castle mission fallout 4.
Fav order is:
- FO4 fan edited
2.FO2
- FO3 and NV get the same spot with Tales of 2 Wastelands
rest dont exist in my eyes xD
or never played them
like FO1 , never got to play that one
Cant rate what i never played
Lol i liked how the game started with the intro scene
Very Enclaveish. very US military ish. Hu ah
My favorites, from the ones that I have played

Fallout 1 imo had the best style/graphics
I'm playing fallout new vegas rn
Nice!
no fallout nv chat 😢
The mods need to pin the thing about this being the BGS Discord in this channel.
As Deaus mentioned, the Discord server belongs to Bethesda Game Studios. Fallout: New Vegas was developed by Obsidian Entetainment. But you may post about New Vegas in this chat, in #off-topic #fallout-lore or #modding-general
how do i equip a power armor skin in fallout 76
Whats the strangest place in a Fallout Game you have turned into a temporary player home/base?
When i was doing my netural/evil run of Fallout 3, I didn't want to destroy Megaton so I could use blowing it up to get evil karma for each achivement. So I was living out of the Super Duper Mart for the entire playthrough. Slept in the women's room and stored my items in a cash register.
Lmao mine was probably in my first FNV playthrough. There was this lake with like a boathouse in front of it and the lake gave you hella rads but there was like a bed by it. I slept on that bed for ages and kept my stuff in the toolbox/footlocker or whatever it was next to the bed
But yeah I got into Fallout 2 about 5 months ago, started playing for 2 weeks and then I haven’t returned to it since lmao
Alr ima get back to playing fallout 4
My next fallout 4 playthrough will be when next Gen releases
That’s like 2 years from now
Was that confirmed? I thought they said Fallout 4 next Gen update was coming at some time this year?
Fallout 3 ... bruh ... that low ?
They did ... lol ?
It will probably come out ... when the TV show releases it seems like a perfect time
I mean it says in the announcements of this very discord that there will be a return to the commonwealth in 2024
Arcade Gannon
Wait what
Will there be a channel for the fallout TV show, i am so excited I can’t wait 😔
Probably not because this server is for Bethesda games but like fnv you can still talk about it here or in off topic channel !!
Technically, The Fallout show is treated as Fallout 5 😂
Does anybody use the vault 88 mod?
You'll have better success posting in #fallout-4-mods or #1067505929534320700
Interesting so because BGS was the publisher and not the developer they don't own rights to New Vegas?
Funny you chose there instead of Tenpenny Tower
A correction: Bethesda Game Studios did not publish Fallout: New Vegas. Bethesda Softworks published Fallout: New Vegas. They are diffent companies. This is not the Discord for Bethesda Softworks, the publisher, it is the Discord for Bethesda Game Studios, the game developer. There is no chat for New Vegas on Bethesda Game Studio's Discord server because Bethesda Game Studios was not directly involved in the development of New Vegas.
@turbid cairn i couldn't use tenpenny without blowing up Megaton. Which I did each time I needed to go evil karma for the achievement
ah I read that wrong. So you were doing a neutral fallout 3 playthrough?
Yes but I also wanted to get the evil achievements. I already had the good ones and didn't feel like doing a third playthrough for them lol
true, but I can't relate with the playthrough aspect. I think I've done 10-15 playthroughs of fallout 3 lol
Oh I've done like 5. But most of them were good lol. I hate being mean
can't relate I love being evil. sometimes that feeling of guilt gnawing at me is so unique. certainly not something I feel in real life.
Evil, are we being evil?
that's why I'm a little disappointed Starfield puts a lot of emphasis on being a "good" character.
My power fantasy is being able to save people and stop bad guys lol
my power fantasy is having few that adore me and will do anything for me and have the majority of people hate me for my actions.
Pretty much lol
I like seeing the smiles of people I've helped and know that my actions brought some peace to someone
So more like spider man. Batman cares not for peoples smiles
No he just needs to solve his own sadness by punching people senseless
I like Batman because he saves people with no superpowers and just pure fortune, cunning, and fighting skills
Yeah, because batman doesnt "kill" people
There is this video I like, where Alfred is revealed to be the one behind the villains. It's all a ploy to keep Bruce districted so he doesn't spiral about his parents deaths
Realest facts 💯
I miss Kevin Conroy.
I've tried a few times to get the neutral achievements in FO3. Somehow I always end up stuck to one side or another just before one of the levels the achievements pop at.
Anyone know when next gen update is coming or has nothing been said
He just beats them up close to death
… that’s what they said last year
does anyone know if fallout tv show will have a disc collection too so i can play it anywheres. im a big fallout fan since 2020 id like to be able to watch fallout tv show anywheres without the use of a streaming service after its done airing whereever it will air.
I dont think we have announced anything officially
but I would imagine its likely to be available physically in the future
only because most shows are
Can I get an opinion on something?
yo guys should I buy fallout 4 or 76
Both can be fun though I find myself only briefly coming back to fallout 76 compared to 4. 76's map is one of the best I've ever seen from BGS and walking it is a pleasure. But there is something about the single player experience that pulls me in more
What i wouldn't give for a full offline single player game set on 76's map.
Bro play fallout 4
Have you played the other fallout games?
Worth getting all of them imho. the OG ones are rather fun once you get out of the first person shooter mindset
id sure hope so thatd be greatly appreciated!
its good.
Get them both
How come pip-boys display up to date maps with post-war damage that vault dwellers couldnt know about despite being created before the war
Perhaps they update data in real time?
were is fallout new Vegas I couldn't choose it
Huh
Well in fallout 1 and 2 the pipboy has an automap feature that kinda acts like a map from Minecraft
How come there are Enclave members still remaining in Appalachia despite the last of the Enclave being destroyed in FNV?
looks like this room for new fo4+ kids , ahh good bye then
ahh a
Yeah
i am already ended it in xbox then pc so i played it more than you bro just the story and the engine not works like fnv that was a nother novel back then so it made me go back to it again have more that 1500+ hours in it then still build a nother one soon to a new play through
made fo4 open sours (i mean let anyone mod) like beatheseda stand and sit then say her you go built your own game
that was a bad move
i love mods i am even a moder but it was still fallout new vegas that made me like to have IT degree then bee a programer
that was sad that when i join in ther were not new vegas
ow THANKS mate it is a great work
Wait, so basically, according to this server, FNV never existed. But it does exist on the other server?
I don't know what you mean by "other servr." Users are free to discuss Falout: New Vegas in this chat, or in #off-topic, #fallout-lore and #modding-general
The fallout universe trades out microprocessors for advanced nuclear technology, did they really have the tech for that kind of stuff? In lore they only invented microprocessors 10ish years before the great war
I think Fallout 4 might have retconned that with some random terminal entry but Im gonna ignore it
well wait a minute
GPS requires a network of satellites
Given the fact that the Pip-Boy was made by RobCo and Mr. House is the owner of RobCo, he might have researched each major location and programmed each map into each Pip-Boy
That makes sense, right?
I believe both the satellites that transmit the GPS signal and the receiver both require microprocessor components
Mr House barely has control over the area surrounding the strip before you choose to help him or not help him as Courier 6, why would he be concerned about other places
He did try to save Las Vegas
Im more concerned with the live updates to the pip boy map not them being able to map it lol
And he might have been concerned about other places because he had a worldwide distribution system
If the maps were programmed in before the war how do they update to display post war damage
Bc he wanted to save his tech in other places
Maybe the pipboy is a robot o.o
There is no internet in fallout afaik
Then again how does the pip boy biologically seal to you
Like in fallout 3 and nv, you couldn’t get the pip boy off after putting it on
Ignore that part in fallout 4 where it is held on by two tiny metal clips lol
Lol
They just said that in the earlier games for plot convenience
Ah
It’s alot easier if it’s just stuck on you than for your character to be pulling it off and putting it back on when it is your inventory and everything
Right
You never take it off after putting it on in fallout 4 for that same reason probably lol
Then again how would you equip it in your inventory when you need the pipboy to access your inventory lol
In fallout 3 there’s the part where you get kidnapped by the enclave and they take everything but not the pip boy
How do you explain that unless it’s stuck to you if you get what I mean
Right
And with Gary 23 in Operation Anchorage where the BoS outcasts tried to get his pipboy off and severed his arm
At least I think they take all your stuff
Yeah I was thinking of that too, I think someone threatens to cut yours off at some point in that dlc’s intro
But then again if it’s biologically locked to your arm how in the world did Doc Mitchell get his off lmao
He’s a doctor, he just cut his arm off and stitched it back on good as new
Lol, the Modular Man
Right through the bone and all
That should be a new marvel character
How come we never see anybody but vault dwellers with pip-boys if they were also used for an unrelated military simulation program
Maybe they’re all dead
Surely that means they were just a product you could buy pre war
And it’s not exactly the pip boy, the BoS outcasts say “we need a computer interface like that pipboy you got there”
Actually I just remembered that shopkeeper you can buy a modified pip boy from in new vegas
The 3 million
Does anybody else do the ammo glitch in fallout new vegas where you can run any ammo in any gun
I'm trying to pre order the Fallout special edition from Bethesda site. I'm in the USA. But it is telling me that they can't ship to my address. Anyone know whats up?
Do not press the switch ammo types hotkey while having the wrong ammo typed equipped to a gun
On xbox backwards compatability it just crashed my game and I had to redownload my save data
oopsies
Never done that glitch just do dead money take all gold buy anything I want lol
This would never happen but i would kill for a fallout:china game
Like the retro futuristic look but with commie bloc aesthetics would be dope imo
Alteast for even a DLC
Playing Fallout last night while high was both confusing and slightly terrifying! At one point I felt like I was my character in the game and I was running out of breath as my character was running! Another part my heart was actually beating while creeping though a hospital as I sniped Scorched beings around corners.
A Scorched in a nurses outfit coming at me with an axe was crazy terrifying! Like I felt I was gonna feel it when she hit me! Finally the best part of the night if I recall was one one point I felt like I was in a Tim Burton movie where I was made of clay and I was doing those weird stop motion and bending actions like in Coraline or Nightmare Before Christmas and bending! So friggin weird! But now I need sleep cause I m sstasing to spelll baddlly and mmnot knowing forthat I ta prideee int miiii wriitonmdf like si ncakjon see Im spppllijmng bvad and\sfd I xcnnt fixds it casues it fells likkee m ty hands arae maded of meltikng rujujbber, this sis gotna be sooooioioo funnmny toraead im rhe morning! nioght!
Not many people get the gold in dead money because it's so heavy. I got half way to the exit moving slower than mold. And just dropped it. To much weight.
I always take all the gold
Someone knows if the Fallout shelter Vault 33 suit ever returns to the Game? Did'nt even know it was in and now I want it
Didn’t know they still update the game.
You may need it, but where do you want it to take place?
i got the official drink of Maine
aka the real life version of Vim
It’s pretty accurate
He doesn’t go into too much detail but he summarizes enough.
Hopefully it doesn’t ruin the game
Mhm
enclave were really dumb in that scene
or they were written to be dumb xD
Rule of thumb. Always take blood samples to check radiation and all that wasteland mumbo jumbo
unless EDEN knew the protagonist was not a true dweller and a wastelander.
but back to the pipboy thing. I dont think anyone would want to remove their pipboy due to the many stuff it offers , like the inbuilt Geiger counter.
very usefull for pretty much anywhere
Oh silly me, I could have just done the most annoying dlc ever made
The glitch is more useful for just doing more damage with your favorite guns
I don’t think it annoying actually I like it far better then the other it my second fav
I don’t think they were written to be dumb, I just think they were written dumb
The Enclave are supposed to be dumb caricatures of American patriots turned ethno-fascists but they aren’t meant to be “revolt against the president because you want to commit genocide a little bit differently” levels of foolhardy.
Henry Eden based his personality on all of the U.S. presidents?
I don't see how that is possible, since each US President has a unique personality.
I mean I think that it was said that Eden scanned each and every one of the United States’ presidents’ personalities and combined them all or smth and became President John Henry Eden
“John Henry Eden is not a human being, but an artificial intelligence in the form of a pre-War ZAX supercomputer. The ZAX that was located deep within Raven Rock was loaded with data about American history. Eden's personality is based on a combination of the personalities of all of the past presidents of the United States. For instance, he states he "grew up in rural Kentucky," a reference to Abraham Lincoln. Eden also states that he roamed with his dog Honey, "from Knob Creek to Hodgenville," areas close to Lincoln's birthplace.”
Ah. I see what you're saying now. That makes a bit more sense.
Yeah
Hi. I am still fairly new to the game so excuse my ignorance but are there any player factions or clans where people of one faction or team help each other.
I am asking because I am coming from such games where factions or clans exist. The system build and loot as to what to keep and what to discard simply is overwhelming me. 😕
Yeah
There’s literally the Minutemen, the Institute, the Brotherhood, and the Railroad
You don’t need to care about building or looting that much
i feel like a dum dum but i had no damn idea there was gonna be a fallout series until 2 days ago
Lol
i guess the algorithm failed to reach me til now
Xd xd
I just did some research and Fallout 76 is a trash trove. Not counting Hiroshima or Nagasaki, an area where a nuclear detonation has occurred will take about 3,000 years to become safe again (according to studies on Chernobyl). Then again, if that is true, ALL the Fallout games make no sense. But Fallout 76 is the worst case. You’re entering a wasteland that was hit by multiple nuclear warheads 25 years after they fell. Now tell me how you won’t get radiation like that. I mean, yeah, in the other games, you get radiation, but only from barrels/food/areas/water. In Fallout 76, realistically speaking, you’d receive mega rads the second you leave Vault 76.
Do we know if Bethesda still has the talking head clay models or the 3d scans of them somewhere?
???
“Not counting hiroshima or nagasaki”
It does not take 3,000 years; youre probably thinking of nuclear waste
Hiroshima and nagasaki are our best examples, kinda hard to ignore them
Chernobyl was a nuclear detonation (yes, it wasn’t a bomb, but it’s still radioactive)
Chernobyl is bad because all the radioactive materials have soaked into the soil of the surrounding area
Its harder for that to happen even with many nuclear bombs afaik
Nukes dont really leave alot of solid waste behind because they kinda blow it all up lol, the worst thing is the radioactive dust aka fallout (
) which gets picked up by winds and scattered around in a matter of weeks
If there was a ton of them though I think it would probably take alot longer
Chernobyl was the equivalent of many nuke detonations. I think it was 1 bomb for every hour the area was exposed. i read it was weeks soooo yeah, chernobyl was a huge exeption when it comes to nuclear exposure that stays for a LONG time.
More pressing is that food in Europe still needs to be checked for radiation due to Chernobyl. Even countries as far as Norway.
There is like only one nuclear crater in WV. The area wasn't bombed like other states becase it's very rural
Or that West Virginia is basically anarchy irl
Lol
do you think ohio would be nuked
europe needs to check what they eay lol
fun fact, Ukraine is the major exporter of many foods like olive oil into EU.
Spains oil is the best but Ukraines is cheaper xD
and if its safe, that means Fallout wasteland food shouldnt be "iradiated"
unless its the FEV.
if so , everything in fallout is mutated
Oh my! Time to get your flamers ppl! Its muty purging time!
Bruh. Food is going to be contaminated
I just started playing Fallout: New Vegas again for the 21st time (no joke) and I’m actually playing it slow and steady instead of speedrunning it, and I’m noticing so many more details!
- If you listen closely, sometimes in the adventuring OST you can hear the classic music from Fallout 1&2
- The Combat Armor, Reinforced is modeled as a reference to the Hardened Combat Armor from Fallout 1&2
- I completely forgot that Fallout 1&2 took place in California lmao I’m dumb
i think the fallout tv show is taking place in los angeles for sure
or in the mojave desert
Boneyard! Boneyard! Boneyard!
Yeah
Took Bethesda years to finally get their grubby fingers on the West
Lol
i mean i honestly wanna see a fallout game in a rural canadian province or something
No
In fallout new Vegas you know how you can use weapon repair kits? Well my plasma caster just broke and I have to pay 14000 caps to get it fixed and I really don’t want to do that and I have too many weapon repair kits that I need to use but all my other weapons are between 75% and 100% condition
Fix plasma caster
I can’t
Youre meant to use them before the weapon actually breaks
Load a save or get a new plasma caster
Vanilla? No.
Try to find the least experienced repairman in the game.
I dont recall the name but there’s a perk that lets you maintain weapons with weapons that are kinda similar
Idk if the plasma caster lets you use plasma rifles and pistols but i would assume so
Might be something to look into if thats your main weapon
No, not likely. But I would invest Jerry rigging perk.
The best time would be when it’s at like half durability
And then you want to maintain it before it goes past the maintain mark because repairing is harder than maintaining
Not harder its just more resources i think
Im torn between Mr House and the NCR
The NCR is a proven government that can survive the death of it’s leaders and carry on but Mr House is technically immortal
The biggest problem with the non ncr factions is whenever the leader dies theyre gonna collapse
I would go independent TBH. Since you can always pass the leadership down.
Maybe to the Courier 6’s child. Or someone else’s child.
Well I can’t, bc I got the tons of weapon repair kits after my plasma caster broke
Who’s the other parent then?
That is a good point.
Like I had said before, try to find the cheapest repair guy in the game.
That's how I would get it repaired for cheap.
Also, Jerry Rigging Perk also helps.
Apparently the plasma caster was created by Winchester lmfao
Not some madeup fallout company but the actual Winchester repeating arms
Yeah, although I haven't tried to repair the plasma caster with plasma rifles.
But I highly doubt it would work.
Then again, I have Fallout TTW installed. So it might not work the same way as vanilla.
Who is that
Also it’s Jury Rigging not Jerry
The g86/plasma defender was made by Glock 😮
You know what I meant.
I honestly don't know on the top of my head.
Ah
Hi
Plasma pistols are made by glock
In fact you can still see the Glock manufacturing staples on the plasma defender in New Vegas
It uses that classic glock receiver design
He said plasma caster, not plasma pistol
I know
The plasma caster is a heavy weapon with a weird trident barrel thing
I was just listing another example of a weapon made by an irl company in fallout lore
I said that
Right here
And?
I expanded on that by listing how they used the Glock receiver in the model work for the defender
I’m just confused on what you’re saying here, did I do something wrong?
who here cant wait for fallout 5?
Well, since it’s coming out after TES 6 and it’s like 7-8 years of waiting
I hope for the next game, they ditch the settlement system. I rather have a premade one or player home with purchasable furniture or upgrades
Like Home Plate?
I have the exact opposite opinion. I love Fallout 4's settlement system. It feeds my creative urges. I love being able to change the gameworld in ways that reflect the character I'm playing. It's one of the funnest parts of Fallout 4 to me and what keeps me returning to the game after so many years. I also love seeing the creative ideas other player come up with for their own settlements. Frankly, buying homes and enabling home additions made by someone else is very uninteresting to me. I see it as a primitive way of doing things, one that began with Morrowind way back in 2002, and I'm glad they improved on that model.
I'm kind of in the middle. People really like the settlement system and see great benefit in it, so it should stay. I'd like if it was separated from core game mechanics so it was opt in/opt out. It was always kind of disappointing in fallout 4 how many landmarks were just kind of usable settlements. I'd like the landmarks and points of interest to be mostly able to stand on their own and be interesting without my intervention. That said, I'd be happier with the camp system and one "apartment" type place with the old pre canned mechanics.
Hell no
Yes, because for so long we were like “ew these setups suck!” and finally we’re like “hell yeah we can make our own houses!”
I'm head over heels for the settlement system, though I do agree with some others that the individual locations / the system itself could do with some more fleshing out.
If every settlement in Fallout 4 had a quest like 'Out of the Fire' at Finch Farm, I'd have nothing but praise for it.
I might be in the minority, but I really really like how 76 does it
I’d love to see New Vegas come to switch
Are these real?
It's a real MtG fansite, yes
Tracking MtG cards (and their secondary market prices) is what the site is for
Come for the apocalypse, stay for the FALLOUT. Official trailer NOW, all episodes APRIL 11.
💖 52 🔁 13
New trailer 
Looking even better
Oh the entire series is dropping at once? Well these goes my life that weekend lol
I'll need to see if I can find the ingredients for some home made Nuka cola. Though I would prefer sugar and caffeine free these days lol. I used to make it with 1 part cola, 1 part mountain dew, and 1 part Cream Soda
There's also Fallout coffee from Bones Coffee
https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/F980E026-E9F3-4E5B-8E09-6F9192A07C49
ased on one of the greatest video games of all time, Fallout is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have. 200 years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the incredibly complex, gleefully weird and highly violent universe waiting for them above...
Hmm, that's one thing we don't have much of in the games. People are way more acholic than caffeine nuts. There's only the black coffee in new Vegas and the coffee added with the donut shop creation I think?
Then again, given the world they live, I understand reaching for the whiskey and vodka instead of coffee
Wow everything does look great. Even though I am a bit salty that the Brotherhood are there.
to be fair, we get the NCR
Yeah but we already have the Brotherhood in California, we didn’t need the Prdywen (and the entire Maxson Brotherhood).
its not the prydwenn, its the cassahan, a sister ship. my guess is the maxson broterhood is going back west to either reunite with remnants of West coast brotherhood or to finish off the NCR-Brotherhood war from fallout 2. in fallout 4 its confirmed that maxsons brotherhood reunited with the western brotherhood, it makes perfect sense for them to return
What
not tryna be snarky but im a lore FANATIC over this stuff, and im telling you, the show lines up, everything that we see is well within the realm of possibility
?
The Cassahan threw me off
yeah they confirmed in an article from last november, its not the prydwenn, its the cassahan, sister ship
looks exactly the same tho lol
Would make sense. They only had so much resources on hand. It would be easier to make two identical ships than two unique ones
That’s the thing, I don’t think the show should be a major part of the Fallout universe. It’s probably my disdain for the disconnect with mediums of art.
i was pretty scared too but after this trailer im alot more hopeful, ive read a ton of articles and interviews from the writers, they seem to get it
yeah, and theyre appearance in this show basically all but confirms they won in fallout 4
so of course theyre next big bad guy whos abusing technology is also in the same spot as their former founders
It’s one thing to say that the Brotherhood win in Fallout 4 (which is disappointing to me, a fervent minutemen) but that the Brotherhood is going to go to war with NCR
they have always been at war, since fallout 2
Full on going to war
Like the actual might of the Brotherhood, not a single chapter
it kinda entered a stalemate because the western brotherhood went underground, but now im assuming that becuase the east and west are reuniting, its going back to full war
Honestly? I doubt they have the numbers for a full war even with the East Coast on side.
i dont know, only 1/4 of fallout new vegas's endings really give them any hope, and we know that the eastern brotherhood is propsering in fallout 4
Also it’s kinda weird that the same Brotherhood chapter who harasses settlements and genocides people is also the same one in the show
makes perfect sense to me, the show is not making them out to be a good guy, the writers have talked all about how messed they are
Hopefully they acknowledges something because that was always a weird aspect of the Fallout 4 brotherhood compared to every other one
eh, it kinda makes sense, they had okay intentions but descended into facism essentially in 4
the way i see, no faction is perfect, thats what all these games try and show us, that humans will always resort to war and greed, brotherhoods a perfect example
seems like the NCR has gone that way too
Definitely but what I’m saying is that I don’t think spin-offs of franchises should try to be grandiose because it alienates people who cannot watch it and it’s a completely different style of media
i get what your saying on the larger scale, and hopefully they can strike a blend of both, but for me, this is basically christmas
I kinda just want an adventure show like Walking Dead
fair enough, id be happy with both, im just glad a series i care so much about is getting proper treatment unlike halo
Explores the aspects of Fallout for a new audience rather than showing something for die hard fans
i think itll do both, nolans great at adapting series
Nolan is great
the show looks SO GOOD
I'm waiting to see the trailer for my lunch break in an hour
We only have like one mention of the NCR in the entirety Fallout 4: when Kellogg mentions that he didn’t want to stay in the NCR
Yes, Dogmeat is the German shepherd
Oh hell yea
Anyone know if they restocking that Nuka Victory Soda?
Whether you're facing off against wastelanders or wandering the post-apocalyptic ruins, you'll need a tasty refreshment to keep you going. To celebrate the series premiere of Fallout on Prime Video, we invite you to enjoy a Nuka-Cola Victory SPECIAL RELEASE from Jones Soda! This peach mango soda is the ultimate thirst-quenching flavor for any Fa...
That'd be a Jones Soda question
Aye, that's always been the case! The NCR had already gone to war with the Brotherhood and drove them underground long before they encountered the Mojave Chapter.
Well yes?
How much
$25, that includes shipping
Glad they didnt go to Target again, employees would buy them up then sell them overpiced online
I only got a Nuka Quantom one because my Uncle worked there
man that new show trailer was nice!
and that "Everyone wants to save the world, they just disagree on how." I could not agree more.
Enclave wanted to save humnanity and the world, its just the real humans and the old world they wanted to save. Still heroes. Same with the BoS. Pretty much most factions. Love it!
Damn, $25 for a pop Jesus
It’s a shame they didn’t make the bottle like the one in the game
I honestly liked the FO4 pop bottle more
That’s what I’m saying
That’s why I was saying that it was a shame that they didn’t make it with the rocket bottle
yeah i agree
If it’s not in a rocket bottle than its off brand nuka cola
would be to expensive i guess.
It’s like dr. rads or smth
could be a new brand or something
lol yeah i will make a dr. Rads
but sadly , they went with nuka xD
Well for 4
Yesterday evening I come across my first snailygaster and managed to kill it with a suppressed pipe rifle. Not alone though as I got the help of scorched.
An enemy of my enemy is my friend, well temporarily... Lol
Ah
The Fo76 alcoholic one was far worse
Nukashine?
Nah, Nuka Dark
It was like $80, and it just had a plastic cover, not even a bottle
https://silverscreenbottling.com/nuka-dark-rum/
Oh you mean the promotional drink, yeah that one blew
They should have done Cranberry Nuka for 76 and Sunset Sasperilla for the TV show,as it actually takes place in the West coast for one
It is what it is
they should release Nuka Cola My Blood's In It next
The Fallout TV trailer looks like the series is going to deliver! I was hoping that they'd capture the personality, the design aesthetic (music included) and the dark humour that defines the Fallout world.
I may have ordered a Vault 33 t-shirt already...
Roll on April the eleventh!
https://x.com/Uniedgee/status/1766245585978319186?s=20 I went to the Fallout event today in Austin, it was such a great time! If you live in Austin or near you should go 100%
Learnt anything interesting about the show that us lore-fiends here might be interested in? 😛
This fallout 76 music is giving me slycooper vibes I absolutely love it
The unsmooth framerate always annoys me though, when I try to play 76
I have a 6900xt shouldn't feel kind of laggy
Excited for the show, not going to hype it up because that never ends well but feels like a fallout game in move form
Why is there not a new vegas chat?
This Discord belongs to Bethesda Game Studios. Fallout: New Vegas was made by Obsidian Entertainment. However, you may discuss New Vegas in this chat, in #off-topic #fallout-lore or #modding-general
Ooooooh damn why was new vegas made by a different company?
I think this video from the 25th Anniversary of Fallout explains that well:
Between Bethesda Game Studio’s work on Fallout 3 and Fallout 4, a studio by the name of Obsidian Entertainment was tasked with their own version of Fallout. A huge Fallout fan, Josh Sawyer and the Obsidian team brought their own flavor to the Fallout universe with Fallout: New Vegas.
Official Site – https://fallout.com

new vegas remastered tho ?
Adding the after-Hoover Dam game play would be great
Man the fallout dust ending for NV was better for the NCR than what the show has for em
Honest Hearts ending spoilers
||I chose to have Joshua execute Salt-upon-Wounds because I though it’d be more in-character for my courier to finish off the last remaining threat and send a message to the remaining White-Legs and anyone else (like Caesar’s Legion) that dares to attack Zion, its inhabitants, and its visitors. As Jesus says in Matt. 26:52, “for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword”. That and given all the atrocities Salt-upon-Wounds has committed he seemed beyond redemption.
Still super sad though that Waking Cloud never reconciles with Daniel about hiding her husband’s death and thus never truly at peace even after the defeat of the White Legs. Both her and Daniel meet the short end of the stick in this ending which sucks.
Legends of the Burning Man become more intense and widespread though. So that’s pretty cool. ||
Okay, so dumb question... But can I ask for help in Fallout 76 in this chat?
You should ask in #fallout-76-chat
There's a chat for the game? Why can't I see it? :/
Maybe I'm just blind as a bat. 😅 Thanks! :D
It's possible that it wasn't activated. You check this by navigating to id:customize and clicking on anything you want to see (such as the Fallout 76 section, for instance). On that page you can also hide anything you are not interested in.
Yeah, that's what it was. :) Already got it set up. But thanks! :D
That fallout controller is so cool looking
Not sure if I should've said that in off-topic but whatever
Hm? Which controller?
Ah, interesting
I got banned from the tops and gamorahs lmao 10 luck is crazy
nice
i’m going to real life fallout new vegas location today guys 💗💗💗💗 i’m going to do a joshua graham into the grand canyon
Bro boutta lose all his money to the casinos
I think another New Vegas day has already been confirmed for November in Goodsprings.
Gotta make that return trip later this year
Totally worth it
Anybody interested in fallout ttrpg?
Yo that's a thing? Cool.
I had a friend who made a roadtrip to Las Vegas via the most-commonly-used-route from New Vegas. Idk if it was intentionally in honour of New Vegas but he found it cool.
The last 2 years they held an event in Goodsprings which is about a 20 minute drive out of Vegas right off the highway, cute little town but there's not really much as far as amenities. They have a couple of tents you can rent or camping lots but most people just drive in from the city
hlep, i cant paly fallout nv
Are you still having this problem?
hey guys i am new infallout 76 and have no idea what to do i started the questline in the wayward but i need for everything a higher level or construnction plans can someone help me ?
You'll have better luck asking in #fallout-76-chat
okay thanks
Yes. i tried contacting bethesda support but they arent very helpful
I'm assuming you are on PC, New Vegas is straight gonna crash if you play Vanilla Unmodded. Look up the Viva New Vegas Guide for the Game. It guides you into installing mods but they only aim to restore cut content and Fix Bugs, and give a crash free experience. I know this sounds like I'm being paid or something but it really is the best way to play the game without any issues.
They have a Discord Server for Support aswell
If you decide to follow this Guide and you need help DMs are open and so is the Server for this Guide
What is the problem exactly
the game crashes past the into cutscene every time
Are you using AMD?
like
in the loading screen
yes, gpu and cpu
but i disabled all advanced features in the driver
Doesn't matter unfortunately, latest drivers for AMD GPUs will cause the game to crash, you'll need to downgrade if you want to play
that is very inconvenient.
I know it's stupid and I'm still not exactly sure why it happens. New Vegas and 3 may be updated soon so it could be fixed then but I wouldn't know fs
i cannot play it at all. i have a 6950 xt on a windows 11 system. the drivers arent old enough
