Why Fallout 3 is worse:
Worse storyline(God it was like a shitty version of 2's story)
Black and white choices
Less quality quests
Shitty Reputation system
Worse factions
Horrible level scaling
Plenty more reasons but yeah it just didn't feel like a Fallout game, not sure why they didn't just call it something different and leave the Fallout games to idk Obsidian who has writers and people who made the original fallout games....
That said as a game its pretty fun, if you ignore the part about it being a Fallout game, I expect the same from 4 and I expect Obsidian to pick up the slack again that Bethesda leaves.

Its not a thing of better or worse, we are just giving opinions, i get more fun from fallout 3... just that

Thats fine, just not seeing how 3 accomplished more is all?
Comment has been collapsed.
Thats sorta sad but believable...I mean look at the path Bethesda has taken, each game is smaller then the next.
Its madness.
Comment has been collapsed.
I wonder if people who think 3 is better ever ever played the originals sometimes...probably not.
Comment has been collapsed.
I did it, i played the first game and a bit of the second one, its just i get more fun from fallout 3, i liked the characters, the OST, and the story
Comment has been collapsed.
If you played the originals first and then walked into 3 you might have felt like many of us felt about 3, I am not saying 3 is a bad game, hell it might be a better game for some, but it is not a good Fallout game is all.
New Vegas feels more like a real sequel, I and many other people feel like 3 isn't even cannon. Not sure how you enjoyed the story more though, the writing was terrible...but thats just my opinion I guess...

I first played fallout 3 and then played the originals, after that i played new vegas. i think the story may be very simple and the game is very easy but i liked just because i liked jaja
Comment has been collapsed.
I mean, I played the originals years, and Fallout 2 is one of my favourite games. But I adored Fallout 3 all the same, and would put it and New Vegas on about the same level, because as good as parts of NV are, it was severely lacking in some others. I'll never understand the claims of "FO3 wasn't Fallout" or "didn't feel like Fallout". It was a bit different, but I felt like it fit in with any other of the main games in the series.
Now, Fallout Tactics or Brotherhood of Steel? THOSE are games that don't feel like Fallout. They can GTFO.

Don't worry, it will come out a year or so after 4.
Yeah 3 wasn't so great, don't get me wrong, still a fun game in its own right, but lackluster when compared to any other Fallout game. Still looking forward to 4, I am not going in with high hopes, now when obsidian comes out with a new one I will go in with all my high hopes haha.

I am a sucker for New Vegas, Honestly it goes like this for me.
Fallout 2
New Vegas
Fallout 1
Fallout 3
I don't remember Tactics to well, I don't remember being as good as the others, I might be forgetful though...

+1, you're right:
"This date format was commonly used alongside the little-endian form in the United Kingdom until the early 20th century and can be found in both defunct and modern print media (...)"
personally I use mostly reversed version of european format: yyyy:mm:dd, for cataloguing purposes (even with default sorting it will remain in order)
Comment has been collapsed.
yyyy-mm-dd is the standard format here in Quebec (french Canada) and as a programmer it's the only one that makes sense to me. So much easier to do sorting on these without requiring any kind of conversion, even on text fields and file names.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I use that format (y/m/d) when naming work files, but for everyday use I use the standard d/m/y.

Wish it wasn't gonna be on the Skyrim engine, honestly I wish it was a new engine from the ground up but doubt it...
Comment has been collapsed.
Bethesda made their own engine for Skyrim, called the Creation Engine. Fallout 3 and New Vegas used the Gamebryo engine. I'm pretty sure they'll be using Creation for it, with as many optimizations and upgrades as possible.
Edit: They own iD Software, so it might be the iD Tech 5 engine (ala Rage). Not too likely though.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thats what I remember, the engine that wont die, it needs to...
Comment has been collapsed.
Problem with this engine is its bugged to hell and building upon it kinda makes it worse, take Morrowind to Oblivion, I personally know which was more stable.... ;-)

Looking at souce code right now.
These are some comments from it:
--- Flash Window http://www.youtube.com/user/BethesdaSoftworks/videos ---
--- Message DD/MM/YYYY For European and American sites --
--- Countdown --- (there is going to be some sort of countdown there)
Well, and source code has the AgeCheck function.

Thats why its still awful, they keep building on top of it, it seems lazy to me, I mean its been used since Morrowind....lets let it die now lol.
Comment has been collapsed.
No, I am not.
Everyone knows that its just built upon the Gamebryo engine...they can say all the bullshit that they want.

Final update:
Well, that's all folks. As you can see on survivor2299 website, this was all a hoax. All I can say is that it was fun to watch this develop, and give credit to the maker of this for making it seem so believable. It's amazing how much free time some people have on their hands. Despair not, because we all know Fallout 4 is in development.
Clarification video by Brodual.
Hoaxer revealed himself at reddit/r/Fallout.
Teaser site - thesurvivor2299.com
Info
My body is ready. Unless it's an iPhone game, MMO or MOBA. :P
UPDATE 1:
Kudos to NIKENIT for discovering this (quote):
Looking at souce code right now. These are some comments from it:
--- Flash Window http://www.youtube.com/user/BethesdaSoftworks/videos ---
--- Message DD/MM/YYYY For European and American sites --
--- Countdown --- (there is going to be some sort of countdown there)
Well, and source code has the AgeCheck function.
UPDATE 2:
Countdown has started, check the teaser site.
UPDATE 3:
This may be a hoax, however Bethesda declined to comment on all of this. (Thank you ifthisthenthat)
Script also cotains /radio/bridgeport-5284ec0d1b93c.mp3 and /radio/fall-river-6191da7f11n.mp3, which may suggest that the game may be set around Bridgeport, CT and Fall River, MA.
UPDATE 4:
Links to hidden images have also been found in the site's code, pointing at prepareforthefuture.com (which redirects to the official Fallout site.)
UPDATE 5 (Thanks to MegaGiga):
As The Vault reports, Bethesda has filed for Fallout 4 trademarks with the European Office for the Harmonization of the Internal Market. The filing shares Nice classes 9 and 41 with the filing for Fallout: New Vegas, which was made about four months before the teaser trailer was published.
Is this the same situation? Or is it just a gaming company covering its intellectual property hide? Mysteries.
Mysteries everywhere.

UPDATE 6 (Thanks again ifthisthenthat):
Erik Todd Dellums, the voice actor of Three Dog in Fallout 3, commented on the tease on his Twitter account.
UPDATE 7:
Site updated, lots of interesting things found. Check out this video from Brodual for more info.
Also, make sure to follow Reddit Fallout section for the latest news and updates (The Survivor 2299 Speculation and Hype Megathread).
UPDATE 8 (Thanks ifthisthenthat and frankyboy for these updates):
This post pretty much confirms that this is real! :)
New text showed up on the teaser site:
"VGNR [CAP] - ***? - LET- GRZ XJG XRS FWZZR GOS UIEG SII GZVZI || GRZ SAW XRS SAZZ XJG DZVB GRZ XUJIZ"
Which translates to one two two seven two zero one three || one one two five two zero one three. Those can be interpreted as the dates 12/27/2013 and 11/25/2013.
UPDATE 9:
Possible map (thanks frankyboy)
New messages and translations december 1st (thanks Mallorn):
THE INSTITUTE IS SEALED. THEY WON’T HELP US I’M HEADING TO BLACK ROW. -TBNLS 5120-
Another Institute reference (the MIT of Fallout) and the introduction of something called Black Row. Nobody seems to have convincingly figured out what ‘TBNLS 5120′ means just yet.
New morse code 1 "Calling all stations, this is overseer 119 emergency enemy unknown, SOS. Vault 119 Quabbin 7667, repeat, SOS, Vault 119 Quabbin 7667 enemy unknown"
New morse code 2: "Calling all stations, this is Vault Overseer 119, anybody near Quabbin? SOS Vault door breach, repeat, SOS Vault door breach, enemy unknown, level 1, 2, and 3 gone, survivors on (service lift? sealed? secure location?) level 4"
New morse code 3: "Calling all stations, this is Vault 119, SOS, Level 4 is under attack, Overseer is dead, repeat, SOS,Level 4 is under attack, Overseer is dead. (We want Mark I? We won’t make it?)"
Check out this Google Document, it contains everything we know so far.
Also Austrian store gameware.at offers Fallout 4 for pre-order for PC, PS4 and Xbox One! (thanks Silvero_Ceriano for sending me this)
Update 10:
Bunch of new stuff, watch this video for more info.
