Quote from Luke.S :
Although in real life the moron engineers wouldn't have left the fuel tanks full when they were unsecured on display

You DO know that engineers and amount of fuel have absolutely nothing to do with the retarded scene you linked to?
Just a hint - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y92vsiap0a4 << I doubt those 2 racers brought THAT in their pockets


@Devildare - You haven't seen the horrors I've seen... Driven is at least tolerable

Quote from BigTime :Ken Block Wannabes = talentless, overpublicized, will never do anything worth while in their career, people...

Yeah, that pretty much sums up Ken's career.

Are you actually saying that a guy who can control a 500 bhp awd car sideways with quite a nice precission to it is "talentless"? Talentless would be somebody like me, who wishes for damn parking sensors on his car, so I could remove any challenge from doing that simple task.

Anyway, a way too obvious troll attempt, Nolan. More subtlety next time, or try to take some high ground where your position can't really be questioned. My favourite tactic is bashing videos by nitpicking them to death (as i am sure you know).

Quote from RasmusL :The new Hot Pursuit JUST came out, and they're already on the new one? No wonder these games suck.

I see some education is in order.

Shift 2 is by Slightly Mad Studios, the guys responsible for original shift. This year's NFS is by Criterion, and the next years is promised to be by black box (get ready for crapfest) meaning Shift2 could be a year in development already and 2 years from release.
I'm pretty sure that 3 years is a sufficient time to make a good game, besides, not all "NFS suck" like you've put it.

Quote from -NightFly- :Definately, i didn't like the side lines and backlights also, overall, i think the design is a bit messy. Now to think about it, the front part of the car was ugly also.

You can copy-past this to every post e39 BMW IMO

Quote from FireMike15 :Our Weekend-Car.
I'm going to make a whole Presentation Video of it, but I only released a short teaser of the cockpit view for you.
Later, if the sun comes out, I'm going to make some Scenes with the whole car.

Judging by the video it's not going to be a looker... XD

Quote from AtomAnt :No, why...you need a sick thread...hope no one picks you to do the same to...but just go to CBC.ca or any news site and you'll see they pulled the site down...as it should.

Ehm... I like to witness sick shit firsthand, not take people's word on "omg it was so sick", so I can make my own opinion on how sick it actually was.

Also, don't worry, I doubt somebody would go kill me for being a sexy beast that I am... prolly cause I'm not.

Quote from jibber :Stop trolling and start doing something useful.

Humping a meat grinder or eating wallpaper paste would be an improvement IMO

Quote from sil3ntwar :NFS:3 wasn't a sim but this is far too arcade.

You prolly should try NFS3 again to actually remember how arcade that was...

Anyway, anything NFS that isn't from blackbox is a welcome improvement IMO

Quote from DieKolkrabe :Silenced varmint rifle works great with the scope, I keep it handy to get the first shot and then break out a gun.

Keep a scoped 9mm or sell? I keep a melee weapon handy at all times
Something about the Kings makes me laugh.

I like Varmint's scope cause it's got night vision Also keep it handy for some ninja occasions. Fifty ammo is for sale at Gun Runners (expensive though. It costs 14 bottle caps to make a shot, so I try to make it count)

Scoped 9mm is good if you need to remove coyotes, dogs or other small pack animals. It's got rapid enough fire, shoots straight, and with extended mags you got 20 shots before a reload.

Quote from DieKolkrabe :More damage (one shot Nightkin with it with guns maxed out), can't mod it but ggoing by stats it is pre modded

Service rifle's okay, full auto please

If it's not quiet then there's no real point in having 2 loud scoped rifles in the inventory I'll stick with 50 cal for going loud and silence a regular sniper then.

Thanks for the info.

Quote from Osco :Maybe my character isn't awesome enough yet. The biggest I could buy was the service rifle I think.

remember, it's called antimaterial rifle, I didn't find it at first too. Service rifle is s**t, dont even bother :P

Quote from Osco :When (or where) can you get the .50 cal sniper. I think I've seen it in the shack at the Gun Runners, but no option to buy it.

there IS an option to buy it. A VERY VERY useful purchase by the way. Could do with the "Jury Rigging" perk too, so you can repair it with regular hunting rifles and similar stuff... Just search for "Anti - Material rifle" not "50 cal sniper rifle or anything similar sounding" :P

Zeug, how much is your guns skill? I do feel a bit of sway (tiny bit) at a 100, but it doesn't really bother me (I only use it for medium to long distances)

On topic of fun times though, if you stop by 188 traders (or something like that) GET VERONICA AS A COMPANION! Great character with awesome dialogue XD


P.S:
Quote from DieKolkrabe :Grab the Gobi rifle

GMG (Grenade firing MACHINE GUN), ammo, armor

I've left it at the sniper shack, how much better is it than a regular sniper rifle, and do mods from sniper rifle fit the gobi?

Aaaaalright... first thoughts were "meh, it's good enough", now I'm holding off what I suspect is the end game mission (I'm not going to Hoover dam before im done with everything)...

I must say, this is pretty awesome. Use hardcore mode (it's not that bad as some people make it sound) + wacky wasteland perk (also not as goofy as they make it sound) and just explore stuff at the moment...

What I noticed instantly though, it's that the developers definetly played through Fo1 and Fo2 before making this one, many monsters re-appear (geckos, spore plants, mantis, nightkin) you can even have a talk about the Fo2 protagonist with one of his companions (makes an appearance here)

Best moments I can remember so far

1. Figuring out what happened in Vault 11. << SRSLY, one of the better vault tec experiments stories IMO
2. "Well, I might as well test you before handing you over" line when programming the protectron for James Garret from Atomic Wrangler. << I laughed my a** off at this one.
3. Being chased through Freeside by a mob of angry grannies wielding rolling pins. You have never heard so much profanity towards an untimely broken minigun, I guarantee.

There were many more good ones, but those are more "awesome long range '50 cal headshot" and "yeah, this is pretty cool/funny/good" moments...

p.s: I Like how they re-balanced the combat, I remember taking on a pack of deathclaws in Fo3, this doesn't happen in FoNW.

try disabling AA and forcing it in your graphics card settings.
Also night mode IIRC Isn't a vob mod, but a texture mod, which are pretty much legal.

if you haven't yet played Star Wars : Knights of the Old Republic, it's time to get to know that game. Also try Fallout 1 and 2. Graphically challenged they may be, but beats most of the other RPG's out there.
