Your info to New Vegas is here.

Since the teaser was released many were wondering when will they get details regarding Fallout: New Vegas. Well that ends today as we have details from The Vault (Fallout Wiki Page).  There’s a lot of new things awaiting in Vegas and here’s what we got summed up for you:

There is an optional hardcore mode, the character needs to drink water, ammo has weight, healing isn’t instant etc. Normal mode is more similar to Fallout 3 gameplay.

Vegas didn’t get many nukes. More intact buildings, as well as desert vegetation. Vegas itself is mostly intact.

The storyline is focused on the New California Republic vs. Caesar’s Legion vs. New Vegas residents.

You are not a vault dweller but are given a Pip-Boy by someone who is one. You are a courier, left for dead and saved by a friendly robot.

There is a screenshot of a vault suit as well.

There is an assault rifle looking like the M4, as well as a new machine gun that shoots grenades.

There are special moves for melee weapons in VATS – specifically a move for a golf club called “Fore!” which seems to be a groin shot.

The Hoover Dam is in the game and is supplying electricity to the city.

There is a quest to rescue a ghoul from some super mutants. The ghoul can then become your companion (more…)
