Even if everyone is only on the basic membership they're making 3000 dollars a month. And you can't tell me they spend it all on this shitty mod.

This is also ignoring the fact they have both a Kofi for donations and a merch store. (And also a trademark on the term "FOLON" I guess?)

For anyone curious, the Devs are keeping reddit at "arms length" because redditors have turned against the Devs, even the expected shill posts aren't doing well compared to the complaining posts. Shame that when(/if) the mod releases everyone will go "Oh, I was never against the devs, I thought everyone else was being stupid and mean!"

I took a look again i was wrong, only a few hundred are actually paying. I have no idea why patreon has it where free and paid are counted as the same number. But either way, they're making money off it.

He doesn't, you can easily still beat him without a single kill or combat skill specced to your name.
Tell me more how much you never played the game. I see you've written more, but I don't think I will read it.

I think he has like 70% resistance to bullets, imagine using finesse you would deal 90% reduced damage to him lmao but outside of that is a pretty easy fight even with the turrets on as long as they don' randomly crit you
 
The mod I constantly sperg about in this thread was updated yet again with over 20+ changes, some huge ones include being able to increase the space of your car using the repair skill, being able to craft more items and lots of balancing and class changes.

my head canon always was that the leveling up in skills is just the courier getting back to his "pre-shot in head" awesomeness. like how if you wake up out of a coma you literally need to relearn how to walk or even talk, but eventually you'll end up back near 100%; the fact that a badass like Ulysses is a co-worker of the courier and presumably was not shot in the head, but clearly wasn't training before you meet him in lonesome road proves just the level of badass you need o be a courier.

If you talk to Old Ben at the Vegas gate about life as a courier he's completely unsurprised you got shot in the head and are still walking around.
Courier? I used to be a courier before I got shot in the head.

Exactly one of the reasons I got out of that job. Too many shifty characters looking to have someone else move their hot items.

To be fair, wandering around the desert all by your lonesome delivering packages while dealing with everything from radiation to trying to find food and water to cannibal raiders to the mutant wildlife isn't exactly a soft life.
 
I don't really know where else to put this but I got recommended an article about Tim Cain and holy shit he sounds like such a pretentious faglord.

Tl;dr: He talks about how he was asked apparently multiple times to not only return to Fallout but also to helm other people's games and his reasoning for rejecting all of them was literally "They're not original enough for me!"
Actually felt secondhand cringe reading it.

Sounds like FOLON counted on some other people's mods that the NextGen Update broke and that the mod authors aren't fixing.

That's the thing, All of the mods FOLON required are fixed, so the hold up isn't with needing mods to update. Next gen isn't even hard to downgrade at this point, all you need is a new EXE, F4SE, and a single plugin that lets the old EXE read the new PAK files. The issue holding up FOLON surely isn't one to do with requirements at this point, if it was the Devs would 100% be talking about it, (Assuming the NDAs they signed for some reason don't prevent them from talking about it)

I can actually understand both points: That other studios begged him to come on and help them(because the AAAA gaming industry is creatively bankrupt and using already established IPs/veterans is the only way to ensure people buy the product) and that he didn't want to(Gaming industry rarely creates anything new anymore in the AAAA space, it's iterations of iterations without any soul.)
Good for him for sticking to his guns on this. I would rather see something like Outer Worlds, that despite failing tried to be original, rather than something like Starfield that is utterly soulless, unoriginal, sterile and only made as a vehicle for Creation Club/merchandise shilling(which failed, so it's even more pathetic)
Better to be involved with something new and original over being known as a hack and a liar and being involved with the same two increasingly awful franchises like Todd Howard(and then shitting yourself when you try to make a brand new title for the first time in 20 years)

I've met people who will die on the hill that London is not complete and that what they showed off was what little they've done just for the trailer purposes, and that they're now grifting people for the patreon bucks. Even if Next Gen update didn't come around, they would find a way to delay it and turn it into Duke Nukem Forever long development to get as much money as possible, idea is that people would keep paying for it and defending it as long as gameplay vids and independent preview mods kept flowing.
I dunno how much I believe that, but if they're not grifters who either intentionally or unintentionally didn't finish the promised product, they're at the very least incompetent retards for not taking the update into the account for their big launch when every other big Fallout 4 mod did(even the trannies over at Fallout 4 New Vegas)
 
Are the takes me back to the days when I was still working on fallout mod content as a writer which is the easiest job by the way writing is simple as.
These people mod developers are some of the most egotistical idiots you ever will have the displeasure of working with the only fun ones was one guy I worked on a project with who is a Nazi he was fun.

Also Nexus is cancer

I followed his youtube channel for about a month, and he seems absolutely insufferable.

I thought they were bitching about XDI, which is still having bug issues.

Eh, sounds like you know more than I do.

I've Seen Some More Shit said:
Weird news, pretty popular Fallout: New Vegas modder Someguy2000 - creator of the New Vegas Bounty series and "Bad Mothafucka" - has completely purged his Nexus account as of last month. This was after he had vanished for some several years, his last appearance being giving Roybatty hisb lessings to remaster New Vegas Bounties 1 into New Vegas Bounties LE.
The mods themselves are still available, but it seems like he chose to wipe himself off the internet. Probably got tired of trannies asking him to make New Vegas Bounties 4: Steven Randall Sodomizes Russell. According to fellow modder and the one behind the NVB I LE remaster of New Vegas Bounties 1, Someguy2000 either died, or he's just being dramatic about a retirement. Someguy2000 was a self-admitted obese alcoholic, so that could easily have been what did him in.

When I first started reading your comment my heart skipped a beat because I thought his mods had been completely removed from Nexus as well.

Still, that’s a damn shame. Dude made some real quality NV mods. I’ve been on a real NV kick lately and was wondering if he was ever going to come back.
