5-6 hours straight of New Vegas

Oh dear god. That game is AMAZING. I've taken a fond love of my modified 9mm and modified Varmint Rifle xD

So far, I've encountered no real glitches beyond Grimy Pre-War suit and Dirty Pre-War suits using the same skin (Both are white pinstriped) and a little lag once in a blue moon.

All in all, I am very impressed. And that one song about the Ranger is catchy as hell. Bravo on such a top notch game Obsidian :D


What platform did you get it on?

I'm super excited about the hollow point/armor piercing rounds. And all the tactical advantages of customizing your weapons. I have a scope and extended mag on my 9millimeter. Does anyone know what the numbers in ( ) next to the reload options mean. I thought it was the potential number of rounds to be broken down or so forth.

I have not run into any glitches. Aside from finding a wandering gecko embedded in a hillside. I really like the characters I run into and voice acting is WAY better then FO3. And all the details rock. Like I was getting shot at and hide behind a billboard and then from the other side I could see the bullets striking the sign and I could hear a metallic "Pling pling!" against the steel. Also no longer do I notice voices in buildings that sound like they are next to me when the guy is one floor up from. I can't wait to get rex to point out all the cool stuff... and Raul to slow my weapon decay. I'm not playing on hardcoe though... it's a nice option but I'll stick to being able to stockpile raw reloading supplies.

As soon as I saw you could get 200 pieces of lead from scrap metal I was super excited. The reloading bench is integral instead of a passive part of the experience. For me anyway. But I'm not sure how to switch what ammo I am using.

*yawns* Just woke up from playing all morning haha. Didn't get all that far but I stole and scavenged a lot of things lol.

Definitely a game of epic scale :) I'm not rushing this either; doing hardcoe mode as first run and will definitely be exploring. It's all in the journey not the destination heh

You people make me jealous. I went on the forum at 10AM (2AM ish in the US) and you were all playing - which is some dedication. :P At least Play emailed me saying it was posted, so I'll be joining you all on Thurs/Friday.

Been playing it all morning. Definitely a different beast then Fallout 3. The hardcoe Mode's surprisingly enjoyable while not being a major hamper on things, The only thing that bothers me is dealing with Crippled Limbs. I was all the way out by the Nevada State Patrol Station and had to go back to Goodsprings to get patched up.

The Desert Setting is slightly "meh" if I'm going to be honest. I preferred the constant Metropolis scavenging of the Capital Wasteland, but at the same time it makes it more exciting when you do come upon some decaying ruins.

I'm not very far at all, but I do like the dialogue options for certain factions depending on your reputation with them. I just wish I could find one town that isn't under siege. I've got loot to sell!
