Aliens in Fallout: New Vegas

So you'd have no problem with MW3 featuring Gundam-style mecha, laser guns, samurai and American ninjas? I mean, MW2 completely disregarded any semblance of "realism" and "consistency" and just went with what is cool.

I must be lost. I thought we're in Fallout forum.

Maybe some Area 51 1950's-esque snippets.

Fallout is a great concept for a game why do we need aliens for anything other then easter eggs? or any other crazy crap like Gundams? we have ghouls, Two kinds of Super Mutants, Raiders, Slaver, genocidal Enclave, Power armoured Jar Heads, Robots and many other factions like the Reavers from Tactics, NCR and the Shi from Fallout 1/2 and many more. Why do we need aliens as another faction? or crazy Gundam anime ninja crap?

Aliens should stay as an Easter Eggs Nothing more! and they should be dead if they are as an easter egg.

But people still keep saying they don't want to see BoS or Enclave in NV. They ask for new enemies. Why aren't Aliens adequate for a hostile race?

Because they are alienz!!!!11!!!ELEVEN!!!!!111!

Anyways, aliens would be nice if they have a small side quest dealing with them. The BOS and Enclave are too....boring now....

Modern Warfare is a whole different franchise, so it doesn't matter what it has, we're talking about Fallout. The aliens have been in the game, so they are canon now, no questions asked.

Aliens are to powerful. If they have big ass motherships they can take over earth easy and it will make the game a "War of the Worlds" deal. It will turn fallout into "Resistance" but with mothership zeta aliens. Why do we need new bad guys when we can revamp old ones like the Shi? Or new human races. Bring back the human Reavers from Fallout tactics. Aliens will change the game and make it something completely different from the apocalyptic wasteland.

I agree, still BOS and Enclave should be represented (so I can steal their stuff) but preferably with a more laid back role so that some new or old enemy can step up and take the spotlight this time.

No Questions Asked My ass! Most Fallout fans don't count "Brotherhood of steel" we can remove Mothership Zeta from it as well. Read all the posts we have talked about that alot. Fans make the canon and more fans say that Mothership zeta svcked because it messed with canon. Aliens have never been anything more easter eggs a damn JOKE! and should stay that way!

Yeah nobody likes it, neither do I, but they made a DLC for aliens, and whether you like it or not it's canon now, at least in Beth's book.

Once again, I liked Zeta. Most people that liked Zeta do not show thier face here because of all the Zeta hate.

Who said they are going to conquer the world? It's up to the developers what they do. And besides in case you didn't notice Mothership Zeta gets conquered by Lone Wanderer and the other ship is blown to pieces.

Fans don't make canon. Developers do. FOBOS is not canon because it has so many inconsistencies with Fallout lore.

Bethesda made a big mistake like black isle did with Brotherhood of steel we can forget about it. Mothership Zeta takes away from fallout. If you want to play alien shoot them up war of the world games like Resistance then play that and stay way from fallout.

who is to say those are the only two there could be thousands, earth could be in the center of an alien empire. If we do go down the mothership Zeta road that is were you end up.

FOBOS because of it inconsistencies with Fallout lore well Motheship zeta should be for it's inconsistencies with Fallout lore like having ALIENS!

I don't see why you hate it so much, I mean I don't like it much but I don't hate it like that. But I want to play Fallout and in a world of lasers, mutants, zombies, etc. aliens aren't much of a deal. If they make a whole plot for the aliens I wouldn't like that, but if they are just an easter egg in the game, that's cool.

There have always been mentions of aliens in the games. Even before Beth took over. Conclusion? Aliens are in the lore.

No one has ever said, in any Fallout game, that Aliens don't exist.
Thus it can't be inconsistent to have Aliens.
At best, it can be "not fitting" or "unrealistic". But then again, this game has super mutants made by a virus and ghouls made by radiation.

Easter EGGS ARE JOKES PEOPLE! The aliens were special encounters, there to fill the space between towns and the aliens were dead. Aliens on the scale of mothership zeta make the game something that it's not! We have super mutants and ghould and alot more earth based stuff. why do we need Aliens to fight. If we count Zeta and demand aliens then we will see alien cities and bases/space ports. that is not fallout. why do people want to fight aliens in fallout? why can't you be happy with the rich world there is already? if you are bored with Bos and Enclave demand better writing and story that fallout 3 lacked. We don't need to fight alien motherships and have a "war of the World" going on.
If we count aliens from special encounter then STAR TREK IS CANON TO! see what happens when you take speciel encounters as canon?

We never said we wanted any of that. But some living aliens in a few places wouldn't hurt. Just as another easter egg.

Or in this case, lore.

I can see aliens as an easter egg special encounter but not another mothership zeta or aliens on that level! that is what I am so mad about the people wanting them back as a faction to fight.

If we count aliens from special encounter then STAR TREK IS CANON TO! see the problem with that?

Easter Eggs are Easter Eggs, people.
If you take them as lore, than Monthy Python is canon. And Godzilla. And Star Trek etc etc. There is a reason why easter eggs should be considered nothing more than jokes and tongue in cheek references.
Aliens do not need to be included for the sake of variety, it doesnt make any real sense in the grand scheme of things.

Fallout is about humanity. Even ghouls and super mutants are part of humanity. Fallout is about our struggle, not some bloody aliens'!
