No point in getting the classic DLC : Fallout: New Vegas

» Sun May 29, 2011 2:55 am

Look closely at this page, their are two armored vault suits, look at the numbers on their backs, one says 13 and one says 21, wich means youll be able to get an armored vault suit in Vault 21!

The point of the classic one is that it's Vault 13. Armored vault suits were never exclusive to the pack.

Changing the 21 to 13 is only 8 minutes work.

It's all just modified gear.. the equipment will be slightly better (supposedly) then you'd find in the wastes.. but all the bonus pre-order stuff will be available in game for you to find.. it'll just have slightly different stats and you'll get it right at the beginning of the game instead of having to search for it. A little modding with the GECK and you can have all the dlc bonus material at start-up. Doubtful that I'll even use the bonus gear my first time through just so I have that sense of really starting with nothing.

pre-order stuff is something they gave the new guy to do in his first week on the dev team.
Dunno why everyone is makin such a big deal out of it.

If my PS3 was connected to the net, I'd DL the Classic Pack, sadly the code shall sit until that time comes. But the whole point of Classic Pack is that it is an homage to Fallout and Fallout 2. The suit, canteen, and the pistol are things you start out with when you leave v13.

Oh the irony.

I rather the classic pack then no pack at all.

You're forgetting the unique Vault 13 canteen which is the only actual canteen in the game. Others are attached to armor only, and they may just be cosmetic.

4 minutes thank you, :touched:

And im not sure if the armour is better then the other armour, but ethier way i got the pre-order classic pack cause i wanted the game. The Canteen in the class is about the most unique thing you can get that you wont find in the wasteland. Yes you can find Canteen's, no they cant be used on any armour, they can only be used on the armour they are built into. Also the Withered pistol is a better pistol then your basic 10mm pistol. Tho after an hour or so of gameplay the gun will become outdated i highly doubt that the canteen (Reason i wanted classic) will be out dated for a while, or ever.

Possibly... but I liked the whole 21-8=13 thing. :lol:

Most people are getting the packs as mommentos, becuase even though you can get similar things in the game, they are slightly different. They're collectables

actually the Armored Vault 13 suit is fom the final cutscene of Fallout where theVault Dweller is walking away from the camera in ARMORED v13 jumpsuit

Yep, no Armored Vault Suit appeared as in item in any game before Fallout 3.

actually all pre order bonus items are added directly to your inventory, so the second you have control you can equip them.

Why would your character have nothing? (mild spoiler)

Spoiler

He came from the wastes, and it's not like this is the beginning of his life. he's had years before the beginning of the game

At a guess probably as everything was looted when you were stuffed in the shallow grave, barring the set of clothing you're found in possibly.

Actually, that's a good point that i hadn't thought of.
I will still wear my leightweight leather armour however, because i really don't like vault suits...

wait you got your code already? when i pre-ordered from gamestop i didn't get a code from the clerkie i just assumed it'd be in the case when i got the game like they did with assassin's creed 2

It appears, but not as an item. Hence why I said "appears as an item"

Uh there is a point, if you don't have it on pc, you can't modify it.

There's already an http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=301 for Fallout 3. It would be trivial to convert that (for personal use) to Fallout: New Vegas.
