Yeah but each one is only good for one level. Hence the option to buy 5 at once, I guess.

Yeah gotta say I don't like the season pass business model. Just seems like a waste of money to me.

That shit should be included with CE. If you're a big enough fan to want a Pip Boy, you should be rewarded.
Shelter has turned me into a monster on par with Vault-Tec's experiments. I started well. Suffered through deathclaw maulings, a lot of freakin' molerat infestations (and subsequent electricity shortages because of the little bastards eating through my ample surplus), intentional fires from failed rushes for caps, and through it all, I've achieved a happy vault full of fairly skilled and semi-heavily armed inhabitants. But the damned lunchboxes taunt me. And between the baby factory prompting, the "happy accidents" from trying to get dwellers to dance, then not being able to stop them because an incident springs up and they end up screwing when the focus shifts to the other end of the vault, and the radio room, I am now full to capacity. And there are so many of the "special" dwellers I have yet to collect from lunchboxes. So, I've been sending dwellers off to die in the wilderness... alone, unarmed, unequipped... so that I can remove them from the population so it can drop below the cap and possibly get better dwellers from lunchboxes. If I send off 3 more, I might get someone from this lunchbox... oh, sweet! It's Bittercup! Worth it! I'm a horrible overseer. And it's thanks to the lunchboxes. |

I kind of like that season passes exist these days. Not that I would ever buy them before all the DLC is out, but what tends to happen is that they'll be reduced in a sale and are already cheaper than buying all the DLC separately, so if the content is good, it's good to get at a decent price.

The problem with the Season Pass notion, though, is that it it is usually never "hey, you people like this game? Well, shit, we can make more content for it then, how about that?" and is instead shit they already worked on and just plain left it out to sell separately. Prime example is in New Vegas, Ulysses was supposed to be a follower similar to Boone, except with Legion ties instead of NCR. But they played the "space constraints" card and just tossed him into some DLC. Now, Bethesda has been doing *good* DLC, and usually not blatant cash grabs (except the whole "second ending" for Fallout 3 thing).
Yes, they have a higher percentage of "good" DLC to shit ones than your average game, but you're still being asked to essentially pay $90 for the "entire" game... when the "entire" game eventually reveals itself. and that's pre collectors edition or any other bells and whistles. Or wait about a year and buy the eventual GotY edition you know is coming for the same price the vanilla launched at. |

Most people wait for the the Game of the Year for FallOut DLC anyways right? There will be plenty of shit to do before going for it.

Okay, so what you're saying is, you'll buy the game at launch, play it for a year, then buy it again at full retail just because it included DLC? That's dumber, and more expensive, than buying each bit separately. And you end up with the same game twice.

It's usually 20 bucks by the time I pick it up. Wait til the Game of the Year becomes a Xbox hit.

They only hit the entrance and the rooms on the end once, and every other room twice. Best scavenged guns are equipped on the top of the vault, and with 2 dwellers in SINGLE SQUARE rooms , it makes it easier to stimpak them without 2 or 3 standing on top of eachother, and the menaces hit each room, so more smaller rooms mean more stops. Raiders never make it past the second room. Deathclaws are pretty much contained to the first floor, and wiped out before they make it back to the elevator shaft. |

Those greatly increase the chances, but they still can happen at random in the way random in-vault incidents happen even without a rush fail.

Expectation: Hoping they don't job the Brotherhood of Steel out like they did in Vegas. Hopefully they roam above ground and not in a bunker with crappy fence defense

Brotherhood generally keeps to bunkers, though. They're more or less isolationists. Not as secluded as they were in the first game, but they keep to themselves. Having too many roaming the wastes is like having a roaming herd of hermits... which would stop making them hermits and turn them into hobos. I didn't too much like how they had patrols all over the place in 3. They find prewar tech and hide it away from the world and kinda don't give a shit about the world. Vegas was more accurate.

That's on the West Coast though. East Coast, both Brotherhood and Outcasts roamed the wastes looking for tech. The Outcasts kept to the Brotherhood code of hoarding while the other Brotherhood of Steel decided to become a power in the Capital Wasteland. No word on if we'll see that faction but I kinda want them to have migrated their values and ideals up to the Commonwealth cause I like that version of the Brotherhood.

Sort of makes sense. They have bases of power in DC and are a fringe spot in Las Vegas. Killing them all was the hardest part of the game every play though.

With that said, it *is* nice that they are trying to establish their own canon in the northeast. Vegas was a nice bookend for 1 and 2, and didn't quite venture into Wasteland canon territory of Arizona/Texas.

For those interested in the digital version, need at least 28 GB of free space based on a recent leak by the Xbox Marketplace.

For those that usual dislike console (and retailer) exclusive DLC, Bethesda stated this game won't have any of it.

Should be fine on my PC. Might need to slap some more RAM in there... I have 16 GB (4x4GB) available but whenever I put in more than two sticks it constantly crashes. Not sure if bad RAM or bad mobo

Swap out all the pieces of RAM and power the machine on to see if the RAM is bad. If you hook 2 pieces at a time in the same two slots and it works, swap with the other two slots and see if you have trouble. If you don't have any issues on the first two slots, but you do on the 2nd two, it is most likely your moBo. Pancreas and shaz bagl too. |

1) hopefully, 1 and 2 includes the unofficial performance mods like the Interplay collection did. Didn't have the final versions, but it was a nice gesture to add the fan patches on disc in addition to the vanilla games.
2) is that A-Ha's "Take On Me" in the background? |

Really debating whether or not I should pre-order this... I mean on the one hand I know I'm gonna buy it, but on the other hand I'm a little iffy on buying it only to have all the bugs Bethesda games usually have at launch make me shelf it until the fan patches start rolling out. :-/
