Fallout Fallout: The Frontier - New Vegas mod set in Portland and full of prosperous content

[Sweeper]

Is Dust like Dead Money without the story?

It's Dead Money meets Lonesome Road and it heavily limits recourses while increasing enemy damage.

What Is DUST?
DUST is a Post-Apocalyptic survival simulator with an emphasis on lore and story. DUST completely overhauls nearly every aspect of the game to better represent an apocalyptic survival-horror atmosphere. Combat, weather, perks, loot, enemies, you name it. Some areas have even been visually overhauled. All vanilla NPCs have either been killed or changed beyond all recognition. You will not be able to complete quests or join factions. There is but one quest in DUST. Stay alive.

Best part? No questing. Just combat.

So basically

Only if you let it. I don't judge.

Can't comment on this because I don't even know what you're talking about. Arguments had to be made thorough and not missing much details because MATN video is full of self-created strawmen, lies and things he got wrong but thinks got right. And they were. The linked video is a revised version of video that also was 2 hours long and also covers MATNs responses too. Voice is a personal preference, for me it sounded perfect for a background listen.

I'm watching MATN's video at the moment (since it is essentially the video that prompted the response).
I'm ten minutes into it so far, and this is basically what he's said and why he's wrong:

"People pretend Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel don't exist."

None of them were mainline entries, and they were made by the company as opposed to the dev teams that worked on Fallout and Fallout 2. Essentially Interplay was pulling a Bethesda there.

"What devs choose to tutorialize first is what the core gameplay is about."

People who played Fallout didn't need a tutorial on dialogue choices because it was a cRPG. Fallout: New Vegas was sure to receive an influx of both classic fans (see previous sentence) and Fallout 3 fans (who already knew of dialogue choices and skill checks). So the game focuses on introducing the new gameplay mechanics:

• Iron sights (Sunny).
  
• Survival crafting (Sunny).
• Ammo benches (Sunny).
• Weapon mods (Chet).
• Ammo types (Chet).

I would also argue that New Vegas introduces very early on the idea that anyone could possibly die. If you do Sunny's quest first, there's a chance both Cheyenne and the Goodsprings Settler fetching water will both die.

Strawman about how if a Fallout 3 quest does something he can't think of the other games doing, then it HAS to be a good RPG.

Strawman about how Fallout 3's introduction to the wasteland was so good that the games that came later copied it, even though Fallout 3 literally copied Fallout's except with higher production values.

That's it. In 10 minutes the guy said some dumb shit, but I didn't need 30 minutes of video to explain why.

Alright guys, I'll solve it for you. Uninstall Frontier if you have it installed and just go play Dust.
The big dick combat only mod.

Whatever fags, have fun with your gay highschool bickering.
I'm off to install Dust again and have fun with my big dick energy combat mod.

Hmm...

 

[Sweeper]

Well it's better than a small dick.
No one likes a small dick... well except the Ancient Greeks I guess... and the renaissance fags...

Spoiler

Based Romans though.

In 10 minutes the guy said some dumb shit

It gets better though. And by better I mean dumber.

The way he talks about "THIS ONE QUEST DOES THIS, ISN'T THIS WHAT YOU FALLOUT FANS WANT" is insufferable. It's the attitude and the way he says things, confidently (dumb) about being in the right.
Yeah, I blew up Megaton and people died (except Moira, because Bethesda really wanted us to complete her shitty quest). I can still finish the game because my dad doesn't give a shit about me being a murderous psychopath. Some choice and consequence™ there.

What must one do to achieve such form?

 

[Lagennagen]

Have you guys seen that the same guy that made the only sprint + bullet time mod they recommend using is a Russian national that is also the one making the mods to attempt to "fix" some of the problems?

 

[RangerBoo]

LOL! Call me incel yet is acting like a butthurt incel.

Sorry, my life doesn't revolve around a fan mod that I shit on constantly while praising a mod I have yet to release (and will probably never release).

I haven't even praised my mod. I have stated many times that I am a amateur and that even I know that you don't write the kind of tripe you see in The Frontier. I don't say I am Shakespeare just someone looking to entertain people and give them something to enjoy. Not looking to get my foot in the industry (fuck no!). You on the other hand have been acting like an ass mad sperg, constantly belittling and shitting on anyone for posting stuff that either triggers you or disagrees with what idiotic beliefs that you have. Such as you saying that modders and developers should accommodate everybody that has a fucking phobia. Why don't you go back to Twitter. I hear that they love to have mentally ill idiots use their site. Because from what I've seen people here seem to enjoy my shit posting while they have been annoyed with you being a retarded cuck and ruining a thread that should be filled with fun and laughter. Not retardation.

Ah yes, strawmen. The classic butthurt sperg's last maneouver.

I'm sorry that you are offended by strangers on the Internet making fun of you. I couldn't care less if "everyone" (i.e. you) made fun of me.
But please keep replying to my posts if it makes you happy. It's healthier to direct your butthurt at a person than at a mod.

Spoiler

You can tell me the truth now. Did you want to join The Frontier and the scalies rejected you?

Funny. You got ass mad and started spreging at me after I posted one of the writers rape fetish fantasies. Got something that you want to tell us? I get the feeling you aren't well liked on the Codex. At least judging from all the cuck, eye roll, begone thot, stop posting and retard ratings you have stacked up. Also:

I'd rather have devs think of those things themselves than demand them not to include an option they want to include.
Plus the same could be said for the opposite side: first they demand you take out X from game because they find it annoying, and then you find yourself having to take out Y and Z or else they will pirate your game and review bomb it on Steam (and send a few death threats since they may as well).

Grade A SJW strawmaning.

You can find endless places where there are people not criticizing the mod at all. What are you doing here??? I'm here to try to enjoy it my own why by making fun of it.

Same as me. What question is that?

So, do you enjoy arguing with people over things you have no fundamental disagreement on?

Doom 3 pentagram. Imagine copyrighting a mod that steals assets from different games.

I heard about this but thought people were just pulling my leg. They do know that you can't copyright something that has other copyrighted material, right? Oh, who am I kidding? Oh course they didn't!

 

[The Jester]

U.

NO U.

 

[eXalted]

I remember my surprise when I saw this as a kid playing the game.

Ah, innocent and pure times. Now we sniffing smelly legs of brainwashed slave girls.

 

[Malamert]

What a time to be alive!

I'm playing it right now, on very hard anything so much as sneezes at you and you're dead.
On normal a throwing spear or tomahawk punches your lights out in two hits.
It's really fucking good. This is the closest we get to a CoP Misery equivalent for Fallout. It ain't high lethality, it's fucking EXTREME lethality.

You can't detect enemies on your compass, enemy melee is improved, the stealth system is actually a stealth system instead of standing in front of the enemy and being [HIDDEN]. And you're constantly scrounging for recourses. I'm constantly paranoid about running into Tunnelers. I ain't big on mods but this one is probably the best NV one.

I'm just saying, if you guys wanna play a quality mod instead of this Frontier bullshit.

Jesus Christ... Why in God's name would you ever want something so wretched?
