What music would you like to hear in FNV?

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 7:38 am

I would be horrified if there was super new music in it. Makes no sense, doesn't fit. Why put new music into it? I love a great variety of music, and probably listen to nearly every genre. Even if I get tired of F3's soundtrack, I still put the same variety on, so that it feels authentic. Blast your iPod or whatever if you want different music. Just don't unnessarily(sp?) pollute Fallout.

Ambient would be great.

Personal suggestions: Sinatra and Tony Bennet.

Along with the '30s--50s music they used in FO3, I'd like some '50s-'60s country too. For example, Hank Williams Sr's version of "Lost Highway" would be a perfect song for Fallout.


It would but Hank Sr`s raspy voice might would become annoying considering the style of singing he does.

On a side note since were in the desert we might as well have country western music.

I know I have some pretty much unknown songs that are country/western in theme but I am pretty sure they are too knew. For instance some of them are from the 70`s but I will post them anyways, they are mostly comedies of other songs or just songs done up ment to be funny.

C.B. Lingo Dictionary - Cledus Maggard & The Citizens Band
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7bXa0RPWys

Along Came Jones - The Coasters (I prefer the George Jones version over this one)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-timQghfQI&feature=PlayList&p=FD05E09BC8A6A523&playnext=1&index=33

Move It On Over - Hank Williams Sr.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Lza3NVH6Ig

The Deck of Cards - Hank Williams Sr version
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gib-V-FQAT0

When you look you can find some very rare or very obscure songs easily, if you are into the older music and know the names of the bands and performers to do searches for the music by band.

I say there needs to be more old time music but more cheerful and something you can really get into when your murdering robots and things of that sort.

I'd like to hear some judas priest classics while I'm in vegas, even though it would break the 50s theme.

Night Crawler-when hiding from a deathclaw at low level(gulp....)
Breaking the Law- Breaking an entering and gunning and looting some NPCs in the casinos.
Living After Midnight- enjoying the nightlife of New Vegas
Electric Eye- using the Helios ll laser......... its a satellite
The Sentinel- lyrics remind me of a wasteland setting

Saxon songs too

Fire in the Sky- just because
Power and the Glory- CL battle music!
Warrior- pillaging a small settlement
Dogs of War-NCR battle music!

Griet- I'd love to hear that song in NV, always like hearing it. But it would feel to obvious, yet I would love it in there.

And on a completely not serious note, how about this for the National Anthem of the NCR? :mohawk:

Edit: first Elvis song was from '68. This one is from the 50's.

I'll leave it up to them. As long as I can charge into battle with it blaring in the background, armed with one of those automatic grenade launcher thingies, with a squad of NCR rangers at my back. Once. Just once!!!

Metallica. Disturbed. Alice in Chains. Breaking Benjamin. These are just a examples of the music I'd love to have in game. And then there's the YTP/other memetic stuff I like, such as Still Alive, Jeremy clarkson Beat Box, Chocolate Rain Anon Mix, all sorts of Bonk songs, things like that.


'course they don't exactly fit in with the timeline, plus I'm sure it costs a fair bit to license their stuff in games, so I'll just have to settle for putting the good stuff in myself. I swear to god if I hear Butcher Pete one more time.....

We'll probably hear Part 2. Remember when at the end they say "flip this record over, you ain't heard nothin yet!" ? Well...Part 2 isn't much more interesting.

Last time I had Galaxy News Radio going Three Dog lead into Civil War - Guns 'n Roses, so I wouldn't know. And right now, for some odd reason, Three Dog is completely off the air.

From the first trailer, I'm sure that confirms Frank Sinatra being in. It would also be a large slap in the face if Elvis isn't on the soundtrack. Then again, rights for Elvis music probably has a large cost to it.

I'm also picking up Mafia 2 later this month. I guess I'll be hearing a lot of 50s music for quite a while.

Or a bunch of drugs, on a toilet.

Anyways.. Why do people insist on requesting music that makes no sense for the game? If you want to kill the atmosphere, do it yourself. Let them give the game the right feel. Thanks. :(

the great, Bobby Darin!!
and lots of jazz

finding records in the ruins and selling them to the radio stations to increase the number of songs would be a good quest and source of income
and DLCs could add in more records hidden around the map
and then the music wouldnt be the same throughout the whole game as youd keep extending the playlist

That's what I think.
When I saw this title I was like, "Uhh, the kind of music that was in Fallout 3... plus maybe some more Western stuff to fit the theme of the desert.".

http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1418&navtag=file/images.php?id=1418&tab=3 50s music went out of style for a pretty good reason, it's to be expected people will want other genres and bands in game, even if those bands may not satisfy a fallout purist. I, personally, don't think it breaks the atmosphere of the game one bit to have Metallica playing Turn The Page while I wander the wastes aimlessly.


What gives the game it's fallout atmosphere is the radioactive junk laying around, the massive amount of rubble, mutated critters, the PipBoy, things like that. You know, the world itself. Having Alice in Chains playing where the Ink Spots used to play does nothing to 'kill' the atmosphere of the game for me.

This could also be utilized as a way to easily allow players to add their own music to the game. The player would put MP3s in a folder before they launch the game. The game would then generate records found throughout the wasteland that you could turn into your favorite DJ. Then, once turned in, that radio station will start to play those songs as well as whatever songs it already played. I suppose you can steal the crappy records you don't like if you wanted. It's not at all hard to code, Audiosurf can generate an entire map based on a song in about 30 seconds, I'm sure Gamebryo can randomly pull a location from a table, spawn a record there and reset a quest script. The engine already does the first two things every time it fills containers and inventories on cell load anyways.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone figured out how to do it through FOSE and tweaked Fallout 3 to behave that way, it's got to be much simpler than some of the crazy scripting that has been done for it.

If people want to download Metallica and crap like that from websites for mods, let them. But the factory shipped game, I just want Songbook America styled music, It suits the atmosphere and I prefer it to 90% of the music I hear in todays world. I'd REALLY like to hear a little Django Riendhardt, but I think Gypsy Jazz may be a little out of place in what New Vegas seems to be going for xD, so maybe a little Kay Kyser or Benny Goodman would be great.

Well, a mod is all great and dandy. But it does nothing to change an opinion. You have to realize, a consistent theme is hugely important. Mess with the formula, and you'll have a bunch of angry people beaming hatemail to devs. Do I think a couple newer songs could fit the game? Yes. Would they fit the theme and stay consistent with the idyllic 50's nature?Not at all. I like new music, like anyone else. But, you can't wreck the charm and style of a game just because someone wants to hear "nu moosicz". Believe me, there will be a mod. Enjoy it. And if your on a console, listen to your iPod or something. Not difficult. Just don't pollute the vanilla game needlessly.
