do these dlc open up the world and let you play past then ending? kinda like a broken steel type dlc?

Blacktric4930d ago

Nothing else but their names confirmed so far via trademark filings by Bethesda. Honest Hearts will probably focus on the story of Joshua Graham, aka The Burned Man. Who was the Legate of Caesar's army during the first war of Hoover Dam and he held responsible for the crushing defeat of the Legion and right after the war, he covered in pitch, set on fire and thrown into the Hoover Dam as a punishment by Caesar.

Scotty0564929d ago

No, the deva have stated that there will be nothing like Broken steel, because the changes at the end would be too drastic to show.

outwar60104929d ago

they said the exact same thing about f3 and then ....... they charged for an update that allows you to play beyond the end with a level cap increase

dragon824929d ago

Well to be fair Fallout 3 only really had two possible outcomes. New Vegas has five possible outcomes and they all pretty much end in mass destruction to the area. I can kinda see their point on this one.

Scotty0564928d ago

It'd be too hard to align everything to the changes, IMO. Dont get me ring, I'd love to see a continuation.

the_union_of_PS3604929d ago

@outwar6010
i hope their is a DLC pack that continues the story which takes place in a small area of California (similar to Point Lookout)

but one thing I'm pretty disappointing in is that fallout 3/NV has not had an actual expansion pack like oblivion and morrowind

thorstein4929d ago

Does it come with a patch so I can start playing the game?

dragon824929d ago

How are you having trouble?? I played and platinumed New Vegas in the first two weeks it was out.

thorstein4929d ago

I wasn't aware of a newer patch than 1.01....

dragon824928d ago

It was more than playable on day one. Like I said, I played it and platinumed it in the first two weeks it was out.

Fallout: New Vegas Director Happy To Make Another Fallout Game, But There's A Catch

Josh Sawyer, a Fallout series veteran, has certain conditions to be fulfilled before he could potentially start making another Fallout.

RaidenBlack40d ago

Microsoft ... just do one thing right?
You got Obsidian. You got Bethesda. Just make it happen!
Give free reign to Obsidian with higher budget and no restrictions (i.e deadline, metacritic score or wokeness)

just_looken40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

This would be nice but they are trying to pass Avowed as a next gen rpg while at the last minute doing a gut job and a large delay
https://www.ign.com/article...

https://www.ign.com/article...

Then on the back burner they still got outer worlds 2 3 yr old trailer:
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

avrowed from 4 years ago
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

they said there working on both games years ago 0 have come out which is not good.

I would love it too we got the las vegas team on the fallout ip again but right now it seems there is something bad going on over there.

Now larien studios right now was kicked out of hasbro the whole wizard coast situation so give that team the fallout ip.

Sciurus_vulgaris40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

@just_looken

You are trying to trash Obsidian, yet want the studio to work on New Vegas 2 ?

just_looken40d ago

@Sciurus_vulgaris

I know it hard for n4g users but read my links they themselves based on feedback delayed the game for a whole combat over hall

They even said after 4 years the graphics we saw are not finial they are "alpha stage"
https://x.com/klobrille/sta...

So i did not trash them i stated a fact this team has 2 games in the works one that is hidden and the other is currently getting a new combat system and graphics overhaul like halo got after that game play reveal.

Go ahead and say its a good thing after 4 years to redo the graphics/combat on a AAA game with M$ backing because to me that is showing there is something bad going on behind the scenes.

That being sad yeah i would love to have the fallout nv crew make another fallout game because outer worlds one was short but still a solid fun title.

DodoDojo40d ago

Won't happen, it makes too much sense.

@RaidenBlack

"Give free reign to Obsidian with higher budget and no restrictions"

It´s not that simple. Fallout is a Bethesda IP and Todd Howard´s creation.

Free reign means that Sawyer could do whatever he wants in that universe. Such freedom could put both studios at odds given different creative views.

I don´t think Swayer would like MS giving unrestricted freedom to other teams to mess around with his Pillars of Eternity´s universe either, so I think it would be nice and respectful if he´d approach Todd himself first and share some of his ideas for a possible sequel to New Vegas, before going out making demands on the internet to make somebody´s else game.

porkChop39d ago

Fallout is not Todd Howard's creation. Bethesda bought the Fallout IP. Josh Sawyer also isn't making demands, he's just answering a question.

RaidenBlack39d ago (Edited 39d ago )

You got very little idea regarding gaming before Xbox 360 era.
Fallout is the spiritual successor to 1988's Wasteland, which came wayy before Todd Howard started making games (1995) and was created by Interplay, which later spawns Black Isle Studio, creator of Fallout 1 & 2, where Josh Sawyer also joins few years later. Black Isle Studios becomes Obsidian and Sawyer goes to direct Fallout New Vegas, arguably considered the best Fallout game.
"Free reign means that Sawyer could do whatever he wants in that universe."
~ Yea that's exactly how we got New Vegas, and we want that to happen again. Period.

victorMaje39d ago

Take a moment to appreciate the wisdom & history porkChop & RaidenBlack have kindly imparted upon you despite the amazing ignorance of your statement.

TheNamelessOne40d ago

It wasn't bad, but I didn't like the direction Bethesda took the series with Fallout 4. New Vegas is definitely my favorite in the series (Followed by 2), and would love to see them do another game. Another thing is Larian also spoke interest with the IP and that would be awesome.

shinoff218340d ago

Larian would do it so much justice, obsidian as well. I'm the same. I liked fallout 4 but holy hell was it dumbed down. Some stuff just wast interesting enough ie settlements.

RaidenBlack40d ago

An isometric spin-off from Larian and a New Vegas sequel from Obsidian will just be too good to be true ... and it all depends on Todd Howard

just_looken40d ago

Fallout 4 is also way worse on the base version when it was first tossed out beyond the bible of issues those dlc's made the horrible drop rates go away.

I had ammo factories on each run the you got the custom robot's that made packing these so much easier.

Still so dam sad that the starfield robot's even the ai path finding is way worse than F4

-Foxtrot39d ago

I’d love to have seen what New Vegas could have achieved if it had a proper development cycle, it had a better budget and Obsidian were supported more by Bethesda

The game was great regardless but seeing they had to cut content because of time constraints along with all the idea they talked about concept wise, it would have been even better than it already was.

Microsoft need to put Obsidian on Fallout, Bethesda just don’t have the time anymore.

Demetrius39d ago

Microsoft won't allow that smh, they'll can it after a reveal trailer then cry how they have no games lol. Seriously tho that would be dope, they should give vegas the fallout 4 treatment update visuals a bit and a 60fps patch I'd definitely play that too. Fallout 4 has been hella fun

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits142d ago (Edited 142d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv72142d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii142d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast142d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM142d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife141d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit141d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife141d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
