Five Essential PC Mods For Fallout: New Vegas

RipTen: Even though it’s been less than a week since the release of Fallout: New Vegas, the PC modding community is already hard at work making the game better. Being an experienced G.E.C.K user and Fallout/Oblivion modder myself, I decided to head over to the New Vegas Nexus and bring to you five mods that I feel are essential to improving your enjoyment of Fallout: New Vegas.

why didnt the devs do this ?

Corepred44960d ago

Wow, mods on pc games are crazy. I would love to try pc gaming out but i don't feel like replacing my laptop, that and the deusche bags on there put me off.

Kreyg4961d ago

Nice. I needed that first mod. I was getting crappy framerates and poor performance. I didn't think I should either. I was running it on high with no AA and AF @ 8x. Was running on a Core i7 920 clocked @ 3.2 ghz, GTX 295, and 6gb of ram.

Once I installed it though, it worked like a charm.

AMAZING, I tested it out and went to the true fps droppers in this game, the vicky and vance casino, the first section in the vegas strip. And entering and seeing the main lobby on casino floors, all fixed because of the first mod! PC gaming ftw! can't wait to see what the community churns out next!

I was in the same boat as you, I have cpu clocked at 3.4ghz, ati 5870, and 4gb of ram. I was confused cause I can put crysis warhead at max settings, and here I am with the fallout engine getting fps drops. but it got fixed :)

multipayer4961d ago

I wouldn't call that a mod, we are only using it because the game needs official bug fixes... Infact all these are lame compared to what Fallout 3 community currently has.

ZFGokuSSJ14961d ago

Love when people do essential mod compilations for me!

jaredhart4961d ago

Pretty sweet. Wish they had something like this for the console versions.

wakash4961d ago

Yea, it would be dope if we could easily modify our consoles without breaking our warranties smh haha

multipayer4961d ago

Like plugging a usb in the front? Unheard of.

Sigmarue4961d ago

Makes me wish I had this on PC instead. The improved lighting looks so much better. Makes it less... Dirty. I like a sunny wasteland.

soundslike4961d ago

I found a quick and dirty way on consoles to make things less...dirty. Just turn up the saturation/color setting on your TV about 20-25 percent. The colors were desaturated in Fallout, now you are essentially bringing it back to normal. Its not perfect, but I think it looks A LOT better.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7221d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii21d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast21d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM21d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife20d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit20d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife20d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

-Foxtrot43d ago

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

ocelot0741d ago

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

FPS_D3TH41d ago

I want the first two games to come to iPhone/android

Friendlygamer41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot

saint_seya41d ago
