Fallout Fallout: New Vegas 10 Year Anniversary

This might deserve its own thread but anywhoo....
Star Wars based NV conversion:

Predictions based on sanity/degeneracy of fan base? Better or worse than New California and the Frontier?

Really don't understand why someone would choose FNV over FO4 for a total conversion mod platform.

Guess it was in the works for a long, long time.

I actually remember seeing Star Wars related armor, face masks popping up in the mod scene late 2013, early 2014. Of course nicely hidden behind a "VIP"-wall at GUNETWORK.

Which one of the two is easier to mod?

FO4 CK has all the changes added during the development of Skyrim plus the ones added during FO4's development + the CK was still being updated until... two or so years ago?
As for the game itself, FNV might have been a step up from FO3 in terms of stability but uh... yeah. Not having to deal with a 32 bit address limit is also a nice bonus.

What does it limit?

What does it limit?

It's a performance thing. Less prone to crashes thanks to more available memory, and less chances for memory leaks.

What does it limit?

it's a limit* on addressable memory

* - not really, there are ways you can get around it but 32bit is dead so long live the 64bit

Must be a big deal, the Daily Stormer is covering it!

Hi, I know there are several overhauls making FNV into a totally new game with new quests and environments etc. same as for example Enderal did with Skyrim. But all those mods I found are in the making. I think there was one that's already finished. Could you please tell me its name. I can't seem to find it.

Fallout: New California?
Fallout: The Frontier?

You're probably looking for New California. I haven't heard good things about it, but I also haven't heard about it being a total disaster like The Frontier.
I don't think either of them are particularly good from what I've seen, though. You're better off playing something like Atom RPG or Underrail if you're looking for a post-apoc RPG.

Thanks for the advices. Damn, I've heard that NC is cool? I must read some more about it before I spend three days modding FNV in vain again

Anyway, Atom's almost finished - great game! But I've never grown fond of Underrail much. Although the atmosphere and the idea is cool, the gameplay seemed too wonky and cumbersome to me

Have you played ELEX? It's something much closer to FNV than earlier Fallouts in terms of gameplay, and is post-apoc.

 

[Yosharian]

I want to buy game on Steam for replay, still can't stand the original visuals. If I'll run my Steam version through Nexus mods launcher, will the time spent in-game be counted on Steam?

Wtf is 'Nexus mods launcher'. Just use MO2 like a normal person.

Yeahhh don't play either of those.

Man, how many Mod launchers does Fallout NV have at this point?

Tbh, if you have no plans on modding the game for the next months, I'd suggest you to go with a basic setup and avoid mod launchers all together (use FOMM for basic mod organisation). But if you're planning to use the Nexus launcher, the steam game time should go increase, since the mod launcher, like all the others, will call the steam Fallout.exe when trying to start the game (or the NVSE version of it).

Also, for a vanilla experience, Vanilla PlusReshade makes the game look nicer without going overboard.

Just install VNV and enjoy Fallout New Vegas as it was meant to be, but with a hundred tiny improvements that make the game a thousand times better overall. Takes like 15 minutes to set up with Wabbajack.

You're right about that Reshade though, that's the one I'm using rn.

Playing unmodded FNV is retarded at this point.

Yep, Elex too. That was pretty awsome. I don't think I've missed any AAA and AA RPGs and FPS/RPG's there are in totall. Having 1000+ games on Steam, waiting for the miracle of Pathfinder: WoTR to happen and to uplift me for another few months :D

Thank's for the notice on the California - there are actually well structured negative and positive reviews saying something totally on the contrary about the same things. I guess, I'll have another (sad) cofee and get back to replaying Borderlands

 

[Alphons]

Just a heads up for anyone wondering about playing New California

Spoiler

Your character is a clone of Vault Dweller, made by Supermutants with his DNA, FEV and another supersoldier serum codenamed Project Brazil.

There's also a meta narrative about your character using GAME SAVES to avoid death.

And then right at the end it also turns out that you're the NV Courier.
And you also survived Benny's ambush and the Divide explosions (oh yeah, you were present right in the middle, your flesh was literally torn off) (oh and btw, you also found the detonator for the Divide in the NC's final location) with your super duper special ability

Ooof. I don't know about that. It's easier to handwave the lore-breaking stuff in NC than its teen cringe, and the leap to make you the courier is indeed huge, but the game world, skill check system, quests and particularly the way factions are handled aren't bad. It isn't stupidly offensive like the NCR questline in 'Frontier' for instance. And it's better than F4 or 76.

I say this hating Borderlands and looter shooter games like it. If you want a NV fix, there are worse places to get it.

Might as well play Fallout 4 or 76 if you have the urge to play Borderlands.

Some stuff is in the endings, but I'm not digging for the rest, have a watch if you dare.




Edit: Also as bad New California is, Frontier is way, way worse.

We're talking a single monologue longer than the entire Fallout 4 intro (from pressing New Game to leaving the Vault after tutorial) level of bad.

Just replay FNV

Don't worry, I wouldn't dare to compare Borderlands to any Fallout game. ANY Fallout game, mwahahaha.

The first thing in my mind with the announcement of Steam Deck is “Portable New Vegas”
