<p>We'll start out with <a href="http://www.gamereactor.eu/grtv/?id=7935" target="_blank">this video interview</a> Gamereactor conducted with Obsidian Entertainment's Larry Liberty.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Additionally <a href="http://www.gamepro.com/article/previews/215673/e3-2010-fallout-new-vegas/" target="_blank">another preview surfaced</a>, this time over at GamePro.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong></strong> Certain things I experienced during my hands-on time with Fallout: New Vegas were impressive -- such as the fully-functioning casinos on the strip that you can explore (and gamble in) and some of the improvements to combat like the bullet cam and the new weapon modification options -- but I walked away from from my brief hands-on demo a little worried that it might play a bit too much like Fallout 3 for some tastes. Of course, that's not necessarily a negative thing. For instance, I felt that BioShock 2, while not dramatically different from its predecessor offered up enough new gameplay elements and improvements to make it worth it for fans to come on board for a second time. And with a series like Fallout, it's really difficult to gauge what to expect from the full game after getting a 20 minute crash course through a handful of different sections of the game.</p>

and some of the improvements to combat like the bullet cam

Do they mean the way the camera ocasionally follows the bullet in VATS mode? Not only that's not a real combat improvement as it was also in Fo3.

edit: Yeah

•New Vegas introduces a new bullet cam, which will sometimes follow your guns' projectiles as they pass through the bodies of people you fire them at.

They mean it can be turned on to happen in realtime too

Gives the player more feedback in realtime mode.

 

[Melcar]

So much innovation.

 

[bhlaab]

It isn't seen after every kill and it's optional.
[..]
I believe it is only triggered when you kill the last hostile within range. So if you're in an extended firefight, it's not going to go off until the last target drops.

 

[Mangoose]

Appealing to true Fallout fans, I see.

 

[bhlaab]

Appealing to true Fallout fans, I see.

Well considering everything else that's been said about the game, yes they are at least attempting to.

 

[MasterSmithFandango]

At least they can't fuck up the camera in a FPS, right?

Right?

right?

 

[Berekän]

Well, the VATS camera was seriously fucked up sometimes...
