The Kings : Fallout: New Vegas

» Sat May 28, 2011 11:19 am

Who's gonna be a supporter of this faction? I knew I was going to be a Kings fan boy when I read this on The Vault
"The Kings are a minor faction located in Freeside, composed solely of ELVIS impersonators. They use The King's School of Impersonation as a headquarters. They are led by The King.

Sounds like the place to get my Elvis suit :drool:

Who needs the NCR or Caesar's Legion? The Kings rule! :rock:

I'm definitely siding with The Kings. Huge Elvis fan here! I would hope more for his Gold Suit or 50's style of clothing. I'm not into his 70's style, but if they put that in as an easter egg I'd be welcome to it.

I have to say this is one of those things that I just don't like the sound of. Of course it will depend on how it's portrayed in game but a gang of Elvis impersonators just sounds way out there for my tastes. I mean... really?

I don't care for his 70's look in real life at all but in game I think it would be funny to run around in that garb. But if they had his 50's clothing that would be amazing too.

@Leinadi it's a Fallout 2 style joke nothing wrong with that

Honestly, the Kings look incredibly lame. I'm probably going to try siding with them as much as a very good character can just so I don't have to kill hundreds of poorly armed Elvis impersonators. It was fun in GTA:SA but I think I'll pass this time around.

I really don't care much for Elvis' music but this gang looks so :lmao: that I'm gonna have to join them.

Elvis impersonators are always lame and ridiculous. It's all for the suit

I just want to bring them to power, and use them as guards at the Hoover dam. Just like I wished I could of brought the Garys to power.

They look like a gang Butch and his Tunnel Snakes will have an alliance, or a "rumble" with... =p

Their quest line

Spoiler

to "crackdown" on a rival gang's protection racket

looks interesting though, so I'll probably side with them as a faction...

The Kings are based off of late 50s/early 60s Elvis since that coincides with the "Classic Vegas" vibe we're trying to hit.

» Sat May 28, 2011 9:56 am

They are interesting. But, I think they will be a weak bunch of self centered guys. They will be fun to listen to, and could have some enjoyable quests.

Anyone know who their enemies are?

YAY!

@Kiebler Exactly what I was thinking. I think their enemies are the MODS. :gun: :cry:

Edit: MODS as in Rockers vs Mods not the Moderators on here

I don't think it's been confirmed.

Never heard of the term MODS, regarding rockers. Maybe I'm a bit slow on the draw today. :shrug:

The mods and rockers were two conflicting youth sub cultures in the 60's. GO ROCKERS! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mods_and_Rockers

Not exactly the most talked about thing in history class, so I didn't expect you to know.

Ah, thanks for that. :tops:

Viva New Vegas!

Are they a joinable faction?

Awesome, looks like I'll be changing my allegiance, assuming you can side with The Kings.

The question is... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPuKoqu6kMk to make the cut? :tops:

I don't know if I will side with them but I hope there is alot more to them then just being Elvis impersonators. I am hoping that deep down they are a faction of spies and saboteurs. Every Casino and bar is going to want their own Elvis impersonator. They are a faction of Elvis impersonators. There could be one in every important bar and casino in Vegas. Imagine all the secrets they over hear when people had a little to much to drink.

» Sat May 28, 2011 9:16 am

Is it just me who sees this gang as some replacement for The Tunnel Snakes (gone pro) as they are at the start of the game and are a goofy gang.

Hopefully the King will have ghetto Elvis power armour or I'm going to mess them up Tunnel Snake style

Tunnel Snakes RULE!

That would actually be a great idea. Like overhearing what the password is to Mr House's suite :evil:

great idea styles

great idea styles

Thanks

, I just hope the Devs had the same idea because it will be to late now to add that side of the Kings.

» Sat May 28, 2011 1:01 pm

I think they are just an element to satisfy cravings for ELVIS and also rival the goofiness of the Tunnel Snakes(who I wish had become a fully fledged gang) x
