I hope that Rex is like Dogmeat and has a lot of health

Yeah, I was wrong about the lil fella. He's actually pretty adorable for a big metal mutt.

Hahaha yeah me too... I think it was because he whimpered.

But, also wth is with the running animation on the female 3rd person, it looks worse than fallout 3.... or is that sped up or something????

I like how a lot of the weapons are held whilst running. the revolver is held upwards which is a good change to a "cocked 90o angle of the arm" in FO3.

Built to Destroy and Trigger Discipline look cool, but I wish there was a LOT more traits, Go MODS!

Did I miss one? I recall one mutie talking that had a lip sling that was not Michael Dorn, and also of course Lily. :bolt: But no Marcus... I thought I saw all of them... :confused:

There was just a brief scene of him before it skipped to (I think) some ski resort. Not sure what vid it was in, Characters or Locations maybe.

Same. I saw marus being talked to for about 2 seconds but you couldn't hear him. Then we saw the camera approch him in his ski resort but no dialouge?

You have no idea how much I want to hear lily's voice. Ahhhh must not look.

Did anyone notice in the second to last video how something was blurred out in one of the clips. It was an indicator for something and the speculation is driving me mad. It had the present icon! :shocking:

just 1 week now..... damn this preview. i was trying NOT to get too hyped until like 2-3 days before release but after watching this the next 7 days are going to be torture. i dont know what to do w/ myself for a whole week....i guess i can just keep watching that preview since its on my DVR

» Fri May 27, 2011 10:41 am

So should I watch the Quest Walkthrough vid or continue holding off from watching it? As to not be spoiled because obviously it was really good

» Fri May 27, 2011 4:34 am

I seriously can't wait for this game to come out this week is going to be hell.

For those of you chomping at the bit for the next week, imagine if you will........
You're an American trapped in Europe, thus your wait time will be even longer, the 22nd for the locals and if you ordered it from the states prior to arriving here.... you have to wait for the US postal system(+ 1 or 2 WEEKS).
I'll reading th boards and gnashing my teeth WELL after you've completed your first playthough.

I'm surprised that some of the most useful traits in Fallout 2 won't appear in FO:NV - Gifted & Skilled. So, what do you guys think about it?

» Fri May 27, 2011 12:26 pm

You have no idea how much I want to hear lily's voice. Ahhhh must not look.

Well i can tell you how it sounds in the spoiler below.
Look at your own risk:

Spoiler

Lily sounds like a smoker who is near death she sounds rather dopey to me also. It kind of bothered me because marcus and neil sound half way normal and somewhat smart. However i am going off the 5 seconds of dialogue that i actually heard.

Oh Grrtt, come here and give your grandma some sugar! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

» Thu May 26, 2011 9:04 pm

yeah but Lily was an old Grandma BEFORE they Supermutied her, so she is going to sound a bit... like that Gwanny off Tweetiepie.

» Fri May 27, 2011 2:54 am

oh and thank you thank you thank you for showing a FEMALE courier in those preview shots. Didn't hurt too much, did it? :goodjob:

» Fri May 27, 2011 7:44 am

wow!

» Fri May 27, 2011 1:15 am

I don't really understand how Strength affects weapon effectiveness, I understand how it would affect melee weapon damage but it seems to also affect small guns, Perception specifies energy weapons only. I liked to make my small guns character not very strong but perceptive and agile, now it seems that will make my small guns usage worse I don't want to have to be strong to be good with a pistol or rifle, makes no sense.

I also wonder what "nerve" is because it says Charisma affects it.

Would have liked to see some more none combat traits but its nice that they are back anyway.
