sonsism Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Had a go of the 76 trial but all it’s done is make me want to go back and play through 4 again. I don’t think I finished Far Harbour so going to go through the main quest line and choose a different endgame then head back to FH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Went back to play it a bit and found out I had some brightness bug. Everything was white! Managed to find a mod to fix it, then slogged my way through some more of Nukaworld for a bit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I didn't mind Nukaworld tbh. It defo could have been better. I bought 76 for a tenner a few weeks ago. played it for 10 mins then juked it. wanna play 3, NV and 4 again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I've gone back to this during my summer off work (and to take me away from FIFA). I'm delighted that I have chosen to have another run through, totally engrossed again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightscamera Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I bought this for 3 quid... Probably one of the best 3 quids I've spent recently. 3 and NV were 2 of my favourite games.. Only a short way into 4, level 17 and just cleared the warehouses in goodneighbour, but there's still so much to explore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the minority view (and for about the thousand-th time on this thread) probably because 4 was my first experience of Fallout but I think it shits all over 3 from a great height. Haven't started NV yet, will really need to soon. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike most other fallout fans I want a South America sequel..tha t should be fun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't really enjoy all the stuff in the tunnels that seemed to be a big part of 3. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I tried 3 at one point around 5 years ago, played it twice but just couldn't get into it. 4 I found easy to get into. Maybe I just had more time to enjoy it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think 3 has aged particularly well but, as someone who played it on release, its still my favourite. 1 hour ago, Estragon IS NOT a fud said: I found 4 woeful. The story is tragically bad. I never even finished it, it was that bad. NV is the GOAT and always will be. 3 isn't as good, but still miles better than 4. NV is hugely over rated. Its not as good as 3 or 4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeAreElgin Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I was quite fortunate with 3 and 4, but the amount of game breaking bugs I experienced in multiple plays of NV put me right off it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel your pain with NV, usually can't be arsed going back to it for a while after an autosave is corrupted and I haven't manually saved for ages. I still eventually go back to it though, and when it works it's a brilliant game. Still need to remember to save frequently, especially when you're about to head into a new area/enter a building. It's the same with Skyrim, to an extent. On topic, I still play 4 every so often, and I always seem to work with the Railroad. In my second playthrough I've ditched Preston at one of the settlements and can't remember which one, at the moment I'm cutting about with a robot as a companion/storage compartment (can't remember where I left Ada). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I loved them all. I also recently bought 76 for a tenner, Haven't played it yet but will give it a go. Bit of a fan boy since I first played 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 The combat mechanics in 3 are just really poor. Character interaction in 3 isnt as strong as in 4, although Preston's endless regenerated minutemen quests are a pain in the hole. 3 was a decent enough pick up for a few quid via a Steam sale several months ago but its nowhere near as good as 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was nothing wrong with the combat mechanics with 3 when it was released. As I said, it hasnt aged that well, but comparing both on release, 3 wins for me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you enjoyed the collecting/building element of 4 then you may like 76 but even that wasn't enough to hold my attention. I might go back to it now that they've done some updates but not sure if it will ever really compare to any of the others. In fact the best advice I can offer you is to try to not class it as a Fallout game at all to avoid disappointment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a really fun survival shooter and has a great map to dive around in but the writing is so shoddy and half-arsed that it does a disservice to previous Fallout games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion of course. 3, 4 and NW clearly all have their own attributes as there does seem to be advocates for all of them. I'm going to give 76 another bash this week and if I can't get into it I'm going to play New Vegas. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to fit in as much as I can when I’m not working or cycling. You know how it is. ETA - you’ll enjoy this. I can’t remember when I first mentioned downloading monopoly on the Xbox, think it was around April or May. Anyway, since then my total time spent playing monopoly has been 138 hours. Playing digital board games with virtual friends. *since 16th April, so roughly 6 and a half days totally gone in the last 4 months.
