Fallout 3 Teaser Up

Since 6577 Days

Bethesda put up their teaser for Fallout 3 and while not confirmed for the 360, it will almost certainly be there:

My impressions? The Oblivion engine is showing its age big time. Those interior bus textures look awful.

The setting seems decent and there is a fallout feel to it, but its Bethesda so hope only goes so far.

Yes that teaser brought my hope back to this game :D

There was pip boy poster on that bus too. Oh man this is going to be great.

Fall 2008. I expected that so not disappointment. Take the time to make it good and I am happy.

I don't care about graphics. Fallout is about something else, at least the olders were. I hope they won't use same levelling as in Oblivion...

Looks great, don't see the problem with the textures. And there is no "Oblivion engine", they use Gamebryo.

Yeah but I am not that sure if that was even realtime graphics. Maybe this is some sort of intro video or part of it.

Power armor looked cool too :D

It isn't real time, and thats the bad thing. Whats bad? The steering wheel area, the seats, and worst of all is the air vent thats a painted tile.

Now this means little for the final game, its more that I think the engine has to be dying when they can't even get those up for a non real time movie.

I thought first that you were talking about Forza 2 :P

It is (maybe) fall 2008 title so there is long way to final version.

I think it looks great especially considering the size the final game will likely be and that that is likely just a random bus in the environment.

It's going to be extremely hard to please the fans here.. this has the potential to receive more hate than Shadowrun. Hopefully Bethesda can break away from the "Oblivion with mutants" that everyone expects.

Wow, its a bus(part of one anyway), a VERY minor element compared to the rest of the landscape. They obviously used the ingame engine and assets to make this(realtime cutscene) as they wanted to show what the game looks like.

Its just amazing at the stuff people bitch about these days.

You may think that Oblivion was crap but most (hardcore)fans were pretty positive about it.....

When i say hardcore fans,i dont's rpg players,but players who had finished three or four times the previous Elders Scrolls games(Arena-Daggerfall-Morrowind).Like me...Oblivion was much different than Morrowind/Daggerfall(no comparison with Arena).It had not their depth of gameplay...It had an arrow as a compass...

So you one of those players who likes to walk everywhere in a map ? (boring) Do you also like searching for hours on end for a stupid doorway in the side of a hill ? (boring) I think these things which mean you can get on with the actual gameplay and story are fantastic. Personally I would not play a game where you had to do that stuff. If thats what you like fair enough. Look at it this way. They can sell to people like that and make money. Or they can make the game more fun and sell to a lot more people.

I didn't meant that either, i meant people who have followed the Elder scroll series for years.... And if you are really "that" hardcore u would've known that their are a ton of mods available that even enhances the game further (including removing the compass)

Cause u have to be honest all the die-hard fans play Oblivion on the pc for the extra content and mods :)

Well.. plenty of people do prefer Morrowind. I still think Oblivion is a great game though, and the PC version (which is the best version) has a killer community to back it up. Great mods for that game.. users have done their best to restore many aspects of the game. Like removing the world leveling, fast travel, etc.

I hope Fallout is like Fallout. I haven't played STALKER yet.. but it looks nice. I would like the game play to be sorta like Fallout though. Action combat and a different perspective will make it feel like a completely different game.

The problem if you move it from turn-based to real-time is two fold:

1) It screws up the SPECIAL system. Players hate not hitting thins in the reticle and so basically you'll end up losing the trade-off between combat and non-combat skills.

2)Maybe someone can find one, but I have yet to see a game in real time that can balance between ranged and melee combat well. Either one or the other tends to be really powerful in comparison.
