Have standards on this forum really fallen this far? I remember a time when bumping at all was just plain not allowed. Intentionally double posting was reprimanded and people just plain didn't triple post. No one posted incoherent blurbs about Newton and the Anti-Christ. I mean have the mods even seen this thread?

Now on topic so I'm not a bit of a hypocrite. Of the ideas you have posted that I can actually read the only one I somewhat like is vehicles and that is a big maybe and more nostalgia for Fallout 2 than anything.
Time travel is a no so that eliminates your first two ideas.
I don't know what a cyco is so I don't particularly want them to have their own land.
The ending should stay definite, in order to pull off open-ended gameplay well it would take hundreds of man hours to implement all of the changes caused during the course of the game and without those the end is totally meaningless.
Underground monsters? We have a little bit of underground and there are already monsters in it. Problem solved.
Maybe some slaves could enslave their slavers but I really don't see why.
I think most of the towns near New Vegas are in or near extreme famine so that one is done too.
Why do you want something to do with cows? There are already Brahmin, aren't they enough?
We already have a forest coming out of nowhere, one of the vaults.
They are probably going to extend the map already to the west a bit.
We should only go to Area 51 if it reveals the government has had no contact what-so-ever with aliens and totally retcons Mothership Zeta.
Operation Anchorage, once again, why?
And the one I have been waiting for: Enclave. NO. They should stay dead and gone. They should have stayed dead and gone after they were definitively wiped out in Fallout 2. Considering what happened in 3 they have been double wiped out and really should not come back. Come up with new villains people! The Enclave were fun the first time around but after that they got stale. A remnant or two was nice and more than enough.

EDIT: I want to add that I agree with TestECull's statements.

There's a difference between a tin man and darkness you know

And you can FT and there is a shorter route if you know where they are. The map you get to the Wayshrines is almost the longest route possible

no more casino bans. i dont care if i dont get money, i just wanna keep playing.

and fix raul

ok nvm you are the dream crushing jerk although inspirational on the new villan thing

I would love to see an alien infested Grand Canyon, perhaps genetically altered Alien Deathclaws, or other animals, make it a complete hellhole...

or a nuke site i dont want to alter the grand canyon but for there maybe giant geckos would be nice and the ability to get dehydrated even not on hardcoe would be coll cuz its hot down there trust me

id like to go to the ncr see all the old places from fallout 1 and 2
its been a long time since then so it would of changed alot itd be nice to see how vault city is doing and what happened to arroyo and see all these long lost places
i totally agree wtih the enclave staying dead i mean cmon you got your ass handed to you two times no need for another one.....
id also like to see something with the brotherhood like join there faction rank up so on so forth
*now dont hate me* but like fallout tactics when you joined you did missions you go up in ranks you know that kind of thing but more developed than tactics
i dunno what else theres lots of things that they could come up with

bump

Dogtown? since when?

bump

more legion quests, and area 51.

ya, i know everyone hated MZ. but thats because it focused on combat instead of exploration. besides, who says it has to be about aliens? they could think of something else im sure.

so more legion quests and area 51, not focused on combat, aliens optional.

We have to have DLC that does 2 major things, its gives us new quests, and also add's new endings, due to this its and the possible varibles that could / would happen, it will make it a "new" game for people and a reason to re-play a different way.

With F3 I think Point Lookout worked well, so a possibilities of that could be fun, as in a new area to visit, with a new group of people and a lot of quests.

But what I would like to see more then anything else, is the fast travel going back to its routes, and throwing you out (randomely) with attacks, like a reson to think shall I risk a fast travel or not.

I would also like to see some more (real world) weapons, and the ability to MOD them further.

It would be good to hear from the developers which areas they wernt going to develop (open up), that "gate" springs to mind, as this would then allow the MOD comunity to develope extra areas in these zones, maybe the way to take this would be to say have a competetion for a MOD for a new area, open it up, and the winner gets his/her MOD converted to PS3/360 and given away as FREE DLC on all platforms?

I dont want "vehicles" as we would then have to have fuel, and that would quickly become the new currency, and it wont massively "add" to the game, but rather make it all seam slightly strange? - But if you want vehicles, then have a new faction as part of DLC that has vehicles, and lets you play with these in this area.

The PODS work well as they allow you to see and do things away from area.

Going into "space" dosnt work for me, and with F3 I never played it, If I want to be in space, ill play ELITE as no other game has ever managed to do space as well, or in such little space (32k) BBC B - for UK people that remember them!!!!!

I think there could be the possibilities of a new faction that happen to live in underwater "pods" like an underwater city, and that could work well, it would involve diving down, and then completing missions for them, and this would fit in with some of the areas that we have now - for this Id want it to be placed into a patch, but we wernt told about it, Tell people "new content" but leave clues about where and what "in game" make people start again, find the clues and find the entrance, this would give a new experience?

Maybe the best thing that could ever happen to the Fallout series of games, would be a complete re-make of F1/F2 with the updated Graphics and programming currently used, as im sure we would all want to take part in them again, all these years in the future, then all you need is a way of makeing all the games work together, so maybe thats what we need........

A Fallout master area, that alows you to play F1, 2, 3 and NV and take items and experience from the first one through to NV - JOKING!

I think what ever they come up with, some will like, some will hate, most will purchase, and we will all chat about it in forums!

I'd love to see scuba suit and some waterlogged vaults. Maybe a vault where your only choice is evade, acomplish your mission, and a side mission or two, and escape (or be killed)... Traps, falling debris hazards, and the like.

Oh oh... maybe an underground railway is discovered, and you have to get it working, and then you can ride it... Hmmm...guess that wouldnt be too scenic... ummm oh well...

Fix issues would be my main concern
Companions dissapearing
ED-E from breaking if he is with you when you go inside tops for benny and get your weapons back after talking to swank, thus breaking ED-E's ability to attack/follow, I know this at least happens with the BoS upgraded ED-E dont think so on the vanilla or was it the followers ED-E....

Ultra Lux, the bathhouse has issues resulting in crashing the game

The Thorn once winning a match going on monsters open side of cages results in crash in game have to exit on the side you came in. Requesting a pre done match breaks the quest line if you want to do it, the npcs/monsters stand in the center of the ring and just look at each other.

Items being swapped around/dissapearing on companions. Like lilly using an assault carbine w/ silencer instead of her sword, or boone using Arcades pistol....
aka more scripts breaking.

A fixed issue with some graphics cards both ati/nvidia causing the game to run at a slow crawl at times.... aka upgrade the engine maybe?

A more powerful archimedes II weapon... Im sorry but if I can only use it once every 24hrs it better be able to just destroy anything I point it at....

Havoc "for some doing strange things" like a random flying car traveling at 200-300 mph at you.... have had that happen once in FO3 and i guess people have had it happen to them in FO NV.... add physx? why? ummmm cloth? breakable glass and objects go and check out mafia II on the pc w/ nvidia cards and you can see all the cool stuff it can do its actually pretty amazing at this point....


Now for the DLC
1, Its bs that its going to xbox first I swear us pc gamers get the shaft alot... what because the dlc was messed up on the xbox last time they get it fist sorry but that dlc was messed up for us pc gamers as well....

2. Area 51 thing would be cool but please dont make it a zeta Déjà vu.... a mech to drive around in would be nice, on tracks or something half to 3x smaller than liberty prime, androids they are in the fallout world after all. Exparimental weapons and armor, ai, tools that can help the main character in his journey auto computer hacker/auto lock pick, The Common Wealth?

3. it shows house in a picture of mr house some where I cannot remember where standing next to a huge huge robot all you see is part of a leg and foot aka one as big as liberty prime.

4. Continue our adventure after finishing the game with changes to the wasteland though our choices

5. Re-open the lucky 38 if the player takes over new vegas for himself, npcs only allowed on casino/contail lounge floors

6. You join all these factions to what end BoS gives you a set of power armor, membership and access to weapons and a safe house, NCR wont let you join them will give you a radio and a safe house, no real exlusive weapons unless you kill one of thier members or loot a dead one.... for their armor aka not being able to get NCR Combat Ranger armor without cfheating/without waiting until end of game.... bites really limited on what factions you join you cannot join any of the main ones.

7. End of game yes man decides to upgrade himself without you saying no thats not a good idea....

8. The Boomers those VR pods they are interactable do something with it.... esp since you can ask to use them and still get turned down.

9. We are talking about MR House how about a mech suit if your doing the area 51 thing.... he owned/controlled robco/repcon his robots in military controlled facilitys he can make killer giant robots a mech suit with missle launchers, gatling guns/lasers, the works is not too much to ask that you have to use scrap parts to repair and burn flamer fuel or energy packs even both to keep it going.

10 Nevarro its mentioned so many times just like the Common Wealth in FO3 you are just going to sit on it? Like any story/movie/adventure everything said has to be made with a sense of purpose in mind if you mention it, in any good book/movie and so on you need to follow though with it or dont even bother mentioning it.

11. The Burned man there are things written about him on bumpers of cars, all over, people talk about him is that just going to be one of those urban legend things you do not see? Or are you going to act on it?

12. Open up the closed off areas you know the ones where you taunt the player and tell us to go away...

13. more npcs on the strip and in the casinos

14. the abandoned BoS bunker any plans for that?

15. if you dont give us #9 how about a motor cycle or a mad max type car

16. A radio station building I have yet to run into mr new vegas...

17. More old songs for the radio? even add ones from FO3, and other great old tunes from the time frame you used.

18. Ranger Combat Armor with the works they say it has all these abilities when you talk to people about it, and look up info on it and the helmet and armor have no bonus stats at all.

19. There is a Military base Fort Irvin West of vegas about a 20-30 minute drive its in cali though=/

20. There is a top secret exparimental air strip in Navada not too far away from Vegas as well, or at least there still was back in the 90's the FF7A Stealth bomber was tested there.

21. As for someone who posted upgraded FO 1 and 2 would be nice on this engine if you upgrade the engine... hell you guys have ID Software now they are always doing something....

22. I am still looking for the lasters and what not on top of the lucky 38 I even went up there with tcl and nope no where to be found lol.

23. More Mods for weapons as someone mentioned, kind of bites you cannot mod named weapons at all too. And other weapons only have 1-2 mods.... and even none...

24. Make old military armorys more jaw dropping, you go into these places find one or 2 named weapons, some ammo and thats about it, the vault armory I think has been the best one in awhile that I had seen. But you go into alot of these other hidden armory places, or armory places in general and its a big let down.The best weapons are normally just found in random places for the most part=/

25 ED-E there needs to be some great significance besides getting him for a companion and tossing the information to the brother hood or the followers. He has some great super secret information and it just stops after unlocking a couple things with keywords then its a hand him to the brotherhood or the followers for an upgrade.=/

26. The NCR trying to muscle their way back into vegas after you kicked them out, even though they pose no match with the allies you have made.

27. A player home that has everything and anything you could possibly need? Yes modders do it best one I have seen is the camp one on FO Nexus.

28 if you have companys offer special in game items for pre orders make sure they follow though with it.... I pre ordered the Collectors Edition from GameStop the second it was available for pre order I didnt get my pre order bundle kit and was given a bs answer why I didnt get one.... funny thing is steam I pre ordered it the night before it came out as well and got my bonus pack from them....

29. A game that takes place in the Common Wealth its supposed to be in boston mass right?, How about New York would give you alot of options

30. a wild wastland goofy thing spaceballs/planet of the apes with a liberty head by some water with rabbid mutated monkeys

31. As for the point lookout thing yeah it worked, but I have been up to the DC area and you dont get crazy scary hillbilly stuff like that unless your in the deep south like GA/MS/Alabama/LA there is this long stretch of road if when your traveling between alabama and mississippi and you can swear its like going though a deliverance town.... not a place you want to break down lol. Was during the hollidays only saw one gas station in this old ran down town and most of the pumps had old plastic bags and duct tape on the pumps..... If you guys can do that then I want the common wealth.... if you can transport a player on a river barge from the DC to LA's deep south... with mutated hillbillys from hell and voodoo magic.

32. As for the Enclave I have to agree they are done. Having a Rement here and there that you can get to help you out is fine. But as for them being the bad guy they are done. Already foiled and beat down by the vault dwellers in past games, NCR, and BoS. Notice how old the rements where in FO NV most are old and just trying to make the best of the time they got left, and in NV they came in to show NCR, Vegas, and the Legion they are a force to not be messed with even when they are old and fading away.

As for the contest thing for the mod, that is their work in the engine if they have gone that far, done the steps, modeling/texturing extra scripting if it is to add thier mod officially to the game they should be paid for it... as well as given credit if its going to be shipped officially with the game or as a dlc.... because someone is going to make money off it regardless and it wont be who created it.... thats why blizzard has opened up their engine with mods so the creaters can make money and get credit for their work. For a winning complex mod like that for FO NV it is a ton of work in the production pipeline for someone.... they need credit as well as compensation for their work... if they put in enough for it to win and get published as a DLC. There is a mod site already for FO NV/3 the Nexus.....

As for the guy saying he never played F3 your missing out.....

Mass Effect 2 is probably poised for GOTY.

if FA:NV didn't release so buggy it would have beat it tho.

I want Area 51 DLC, NAOW.

That is all.

New content I can imagine:

- A big Enclave "invasion" from one of the northern / southern regions, or maybe east if it's assumed that the player did(n't do) certain things in FO3. Maybe a change in their politics so they aren't so..."angry" like in FO3. It'd be nice to work with them as player.

- Some kind of Strip extension, maybe underground.

- Totally new worldspace as seen in the FO3 DLCs "The Pitt" and "Point Lookout", however with a more "sandbox-like" mode. "Operation Anchorage" was rather linear and "Mothership Zeta" is more like a nice gimmick for you.

- More quests / locations within existing worldspace.

Now, some might argue about the Enclave thing but hey...never say never. I'd like to see it, but I don't know if it would make sense canon-wise.

wow those r some big posts

we couuld go to new cannon up in utah every one seems to be talking about it. go tucson or two-sun like the locals say colorado ncr chicago pretty much anywhere

I hope we get a Area 51 DLC for the BoS.

i like to see crossbows or bow n arrows added surprised they never thought of that yet

Continuing play after the MQ would be logical in this game since the main character is assumed to have lived unlike in FO3 where before Broken Steel the LW dies from radiation after turning on Project Purity.

I think that making the BOS sim should be The defense of Hawaii or The Gobi desert campaign (So I can get a little insight to the Gobi Desert sniper rifle you can find at the snipers nest near cottonwood cove).

Ideas:

-Quest to help form an elite "Secret-Ops Ghoul Squad" in the NCR.
-Poker?
-More weapon mods
-A quest to discover Android spies in the NCR/BOS/Enclave.

Enclave! Oh how I miss you..
