(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok Ive found some great info you guys for you Fallout fans .

Fallout: New Vegas is an upcoming role-playing video game developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Bethesda Softworks. While New Vegas is not a direct sequel, it will use the same engine and be in the same style as Fallout 3, and is being developed by some of the people who worked on previous Fallout games at Black Isle Studios. It will be set in and around post-apocalyptic Las Vegas (New Vegas). It has a projected release date of Fall 2010 and will be available on the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It is currently at the top of the pre-order charts.

SETTING

Main article: Fallout world
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic, retro-futurist Las Vegas following the Great War between the U.S., China and other countries, a conventional and nuclear war that occurred on October 23, 2077 and lasted less than two hours despite causing immense damage and destruction. Before the Great War were the Resource Wars, during which the United Nations disbanded, a plague rendered the United States paranoid, and Canada was annexed. The city of New Vegas itself didn't get hit as much as other districts, and most buildings were left intact. Hoover Dam supplies all the free electricity and water to those who control it.


Story

The story will continue some parts of the Fallout and Fallout 2 stories, but will not be related in any way to the one in Fallout 3.

Fallout: New Vegas will take place in 2280, 3 years after the events of Fallout 3 and 39 years after Fallout 2, making this installment set the farthest in the series. The New California Republic will play a major part in the story, in a three way struggle between the NCR, the Caesar's Legion slavers, and the local New Vegas populace.

The player will play as a courier, who was left to die in a shallow grave, rescued by a TV Robot named Victor, and patched up by a Doctor Mitchell.

Gameplay

The gameplay system will be similar to the Fallout 3 gameplay, although some changes have been made.

Hardcore modeHardcore mode will be an optional setting which makes the game more realistic with things such as dehydration and healing over time.

Normal Hardcore
Stimpaks heal instantly. Stimpaks heal over time.
Ammo is weightless. Ammo has weight.
No dehydration. The player has a dehydration meter which depletes over time, and must be replenished by drinking water.
Crippled Limbs can be healed with Stimpaks Only a doctor can heal a crippled limb
Character systemThe SPECIAL system returns, and directly influences speech options and quests. Like in Fallout 3, perks are gained every level[3].

CombatThe Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System, or V.A.T.S., is an active pause combat system implemented in the game, just like in Fallout 3. While using V.A.T.S., the otherwise real-time combat is paused. V.A.T.S. also allows the gory deaths in the game to be shown in slow motion and great detail. Attacks in V.A.T.S. cost action points, and the player can target specific body areas for attacks to inflict specific injuries. Unlike Fallout 3, melee weapons now have special moves in V.A.T.S., such as "Fore!" for golf clubs.

Karma and ReputationKarma is back, but now incorporated alongside a reputation system, similar to Fallout 2[2].

Weapon modding featureThis modding feature allows you to modify your gun by adding things like scopes, expanded magazines, etc. You are able to have a weapon with no more than 3 mods attached to it. These mods will be permanent to that weapon. Whether unique weapons can be modded is currently unknown.
