they fucking got a british dude to voice the the president of the US

They also got british dudes to play rick and the governor in the walking dead

So what?

I think we should be complaining about Tenpenny, who seems to be the visualisation of stereotypical british people. Or moriarty for irish people.

Plus no real explanation for how Moriarty got there with his terrible accent.

Lockheart has to be the best British guy in Fallout though, Tenpenny I think is hilarious as a posh stereotype rather than a British one.

Loving how DICE can't win on MP/SP.

Have SP? Obviously the reason why MP is lacking and alienating the MP crowd (See: BF3/4)

Have MP only? Obviously losing content and alienating the offline crowd.

I mean, sure DICE can be a sack 'o' shite at (a lot of) times, but this time they're trying to redeem themselves back to the old days that everyone apparently loved and fans are going batshit, when they're the ones who asked for it.

Not sure about Day 1 DLC, but usually I'm against it.

Lol ok.

Try flirting, hell, learning Russian or Japanese.

"Oooohh, tak tak tak"

The Outcast BoS actually behaved like the BoS at least. They're supposed to be enormous assholes. At least there was a proper reason why their ways changed in Chicago.

They outlined why the East Coast BoS changed after the first settling in the ruins of the Pentagon (essentially Lyons was a softy)

Well whadd'ya expect.

Enclave at the start are supposed to be more of a myth than a presence (apart from the eyebots), and people think it's just a looped POS radio from the past, which is perfectly justified by the presence of other pre-war radio signals (Those radio tower beacons and that American Communist radio).

I concede though that they should had more America-music.

Spoiler

heh, now I'm laughing more at the irony of Liberty Prime steamrolling them.

But they SHOULD be a myth.

Yeah... yeah they should.

I give it a mild pass though given that they are on the other side of the US, and that it was the first of the re-vamped series and it needed material for a good action-packed story. As flawed as it is in the whole canon, they couldn't have a boring story of... I dunno, just you fighting supermutants or having slap-battles with the Outcasts.

It's like a race for me to press the logo and check my messages before the next page loads.

Why do th call it Greenland if it's covered in snow year-round?

Because people like to fuck with each other.

Didn't the Vikings do that to confuse people or something? And Iceland is the nice paradise.

I remember watching something about it, it was apparently done to get people to move there

it was all one big scam

Some Scandinavian (either Swedish or Norwegian, can't remember) got exiled for murder to an island (Greenland) as it was barren and wasn't expected he'd survive. Somehow he passed along a rumour that this "Greenland" was a lush paradise, enticed people to move there and IIRC raised a family there.

But we are waaaaay offtopic now.

I get a challenge with a box as a reward about once every two days or so, but I've had to cycle through a lot of minor challenges to get them.

Also, through cruel fate the rewards inside have been crap, i.e. free resources and some caps when I don't need either.

It's a minor nuisance for me but I would never consider it a problem I wanted to be fixed.

Eh, consider this passive support of the motion.

Like hell am I answering one of those.

Knowing my "healthy lifestyle" I'll get something like Roy (go to 0:49)

A reminder that Obsidian didn't let NCR and Brotherhood of Steel get along because they'd think players would choose that path over all else.

But they can though... at a slight cost to your reputation with the NCR, but it can be done.

You mean siding with House? He's the only one who actually has no option to side with the Brotherhood (apart from I assume the Legion, who are just shit).

Anywho, I've always had a bad feeling about Mr House. He virtually ruled pre-war America what with his technology industry so I'm surprised he didn't join up with the Enclave when it decided to go like Poseidon Energy and other undisclosed parties (...or perhaps he did and distanced himself, I dunno). Now that he survived the Great War, he wants to rule post-war America too, although in the short term he's only concerned with New Vegas and the surrounding area.

That just screams hidden evil at me.

Well, House was only active in the years since the first NCR scouts arrived. I think it's implied he was in some kind of stasis in the intervening 200 years. Because organising the Families, sending out the Securitrons, sealing off the Strip from Outer Vegas and so forth only occurred around the time the NCR got to the Mojave.

If you talk with house, he says his systems went into "safe mode" essentially putting him into a coma after his defence system ran overtime without the platinum chip when the bombs fell.

At best, he's a diplomatic mob-boss. At worst, he's an opportunistic self serving strategist, making sure he comes out on top.

EOD bot MCOM camping is bliss.

*clears throat for David Attenborough voice*

"A lone enemy thinks the MCOM has been cleared of campers, but they fail to notice the little robot watching his movements in a clearing by some cardboard boxes. While the enemy arms, the EOD "pounces", spearing whilst also cooking his prey. Hunting season is every season for this EOD bot since all the experienced players have moved onto BF4 or Hardline, leaving only the young, the old, and the sick for easy pickings"

I've been banned a few times on rented servers because of this... a bargain for every kill. I wonder, does the EOD bot have a mastery medal like other weapons on BF3? I will find out soon enough...
