First day of Quake Con

Post » Tue Dec 28, 2010 10:19 pm

So with the announcement that F:NV will be at quake con, what information are you hoping is released or confirmed for you? Or are you just hoping for new information period?

Again, this is just a speculation thread, so just have some fun and dont start a damned argument with anyone please. :foodndrink:

I want to see the Fat Man put to good use on the Strip.

I'd also like to see some play with a mouse and keyboard, but that's just me being weird.

I'd like to hear what the rest of the SPECIAL stats do and if they've all been overhauled like strength.

Looking forward to input on weapons, skills, stats, perks, and traits.

Looking forward to skimming news on NPCs, hopefully avoiding the spoilers that will doubtlessly be abundant.

Looking forward to some screen shots, hopefully showing some of the new Skill/Stat responses.

Those are good wants. Me, I'm obsessed for news on Mr.House, so I seriously hope it'll be confirmed he was a cryogenically frozen man and nothing more annoying, as I say alot, I dont want 'Zax computers' or some ridiculous crap. :cryvaultboy:

I agree. I was rather disappointed when Eden was a computer, if the same trick were pulled for Mr. House I'd be exponentially more disappointed.

Luckily I don't expect Obsidian to disappoint me.

Most likely House will either be stored the same way Braun was or he'll be a ghoul.

Same, I was expecting Eden to look like the man in the 'rebuilding america' posters :c

@Test- To be honest. If he isnt a cryo man, Him being a ghoul is the lowest I want out of him. No robot, no zax, no aliens. Just a pre-war genious, human or ghoul is fine with me.

This. :thumbsup:

I'll be very disappointed if here too we'll see just another patch of combat and scenery.

Maybe I can finally get confirmation if Security, Deception and Persuasion is in the game.
My Norman I really do hope they're in...

Can people record videos of it or not? If not, it'll only be a little harder to find shaky cam footage of it.

Before I answer, Colonel and Smiley, why were you guys disappointed with Eden being a computer? I think that was one of the smartest moves Bethesda did with Fallout 3. A lot of people thought he'd be a man, but instead it's a ZAX supercomputer that's even keeping his identity from his men except for his highest command.

The computer brings in the whole concept of it being infallible as it's not weakened by human emotions, but being made by man it is already a fallible machine. It was very much like Fallout 1 though, but then again I think that was kind of intentional seeing as Fallout 3 was essentially a retcon of the series (take a look at "addition" in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity of Wikipedia to better understand what I mean. FO3 wasn't exactly adding in missing details [that much] like most addition-retcons, but it is essentially adding to the series but through a new medium; Action RPG instead of turn-based RPG).

Now then to answer the OP question, what I want to see at Quakecon is less action and to get more information on traits, perks, new skills/reformatted skills, a look at hardcoe mode in action, and some more information on settlements (both ones already known and ones not yet released).

But it'll probably just be a lot more of the combat system at work. Hopefully a little bit of that background stuff I mentioned too though. :D

More settlements, a very large Vegas, and heaps of colourful NPCs.

What about "We're pushing the game back one month but also advance it one month as well" ?

I would rather they push it out a month late and do it right the first time than push it out a month early and end up dumping a horribly buggy pile of crap on our hard drives.

I'd love it if they released a new gameplay trailer that does nothing more than shows off all the voice cast they recently announced. Hanlon and Raul I'm especially curious to hear.

That's very true. The longer it takes, the better the game will be. The longer it takes, the more impatient I get. :blush:

I would like to know more about: skills ,perks & stats etc.
More in the way of S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats. Are they going to tie in better with things asociated to them & effect things better.
I did'nt like the way they just mainly added a couple of extra points here & there on certain skills....it's still classed as an RPG, so things like special stats & skills should be way more indepth & mean alot more to you charactor.
I would also love to see the hardcoe mode in action too.


PS: A link to a thread or info about S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats would be appreciated, like what obsidian has changed or other people views etc
Thankyou :)

Eh, it wasnt game breaking. I was just sad cause I was expecting this man with a virginia peadmont accent, and all I got was this lousy computer. Nah, it was a nice twist, it was my initial response, mainly because in my first playthrough, I was svcker enough to think they were good guys (I loved his radio broadcasts)
