Bethesda can't do a decent FPS. What a surprise. NPCs AI is dumb like hell. An npc that runs towards the player and places himself at a distance of 2 meters to fire an hunting riffle and then reloads the gun in front of the player. Finding a powerful weapon like a powerfist in one of the first areas of the game in a corner of a room in the floor. Another npc fighting a radscorpion immediately in front of him with a firing weapon. Looks like they are still using Radiant AI. The original Fallout had better AI than this.

Saying that this game will play like a good FPS is insulting the genre. Good FPS are games like Quake 4, Halo, and Half-Life 2 and not this boring abomination of action combat.

On a positive side the conversations surprised me. Characters look realistic and the dialogs are enjoyable. There were a few glitches but it's hard to notice. Too bad quests only serve to move your karma meter up and down. No doubt one of the Toddlers concerns to prevent retards from thinking too much to play this game. Oh joy. Can't wait to bore myself to death with this game.

Deleted dupe post.

'delete' function is your friend.

Yeah, but the delete button disappears after a couple of minutes of posting. I didn't check back to see if the post was duped until after that time elapsed, so I merely cleared out the extraneous text.

I still honestly can't believe that the rail gun makes a fucking 'choo choo' sound every goddam time you pull the trigger.

The engineer hat is a nice touch, too.

When I heard the noise in the video I thought "a gun that makes a train whistle noise? That's just stupid," but now I realise it's a railgun and it's supposed to be a joke.

It's a 'rail' gun, and when you fire it it makes a train noise...
It didn't click when I watched the video but I like to think this is because my mind has trouble comprehending things that stupid.

This is their idea of humour? This is the kind of joke an 8 year old comes up with. This is seriously fucking stupid.

Yeah.....Bethesda's humor level seems to be at right around that Epic Movie / Meet the Spartans / Disaster Movie stuff that they keep making.

Except for their dark humor....which I believe involved cutting off an old lady's head, or something like that.

No, it's a ripoff from Painkiller. Beth just added the "I choo-chose you."
Beth's resemblance to Ralph Wiggum is purely coincidental...I'm sure...
