While in Fallout 3 this was limited to the creation of custom weapons, New Vegas takes this a step further by allowing the creation of weapon variants based on basic weapons by adding weapon mods. It also brings new weapons lifted from the first two entries of the series, plus Fallout Tactics, into Fallout 3.One of the features added to New Vegas is the ability to custom modify certain base weapons. Energy Weapons Advanced completely overhauls the behavior of energy weapons by tweaking damage, critical hit rate, status effects, fire rate, and more. And we thank them for it! The new weapons have some unique capabilities such as different fire modes, the ability to use multiple ammo types, and a few more features. You get decent graphics, but someone thinks they can do better.

You get perfectly balanced gameplay, and someone changes it up. While the Fallout 3 map is more than decent, it pales in comparison to the new, highly-detail map introduced by the Better High Detail Map and Icons. But sometimes, it seems like developers forget that a well-detailed map only makes the game better. Maps are very important in sprawling role-playing games. This includes new furniture that better matches the new design, and a brand new basement featuring weapon displays, Armory Storage, and all those facilities you expect to find in a post-apocalyptic house.įallout 3 Reanimated adds 80 new animations for human characters that are so much better than the clunky animations of the vanilla game. These range from all sorts of robots to twisted, grotesque…things that are truly the stuff of nightmares. Note this mod is not compatible with others that change NPCs, so make sure to deactivate this to avoid messing up your game if you install some others. Fallout 3 Redesigned fixes the appearance of most NPCs in the game by redesigning their facial structures, and removing the weird skin tone that made humans look like another monstrous byproduct of the nuclear holocaust. Picking a handful for this list was a very difficult task.

Plus the Fallout 3 modding scene is so active, that the game is still receiving mods today that try to keep the game fresh. Gone were the days of isometric views and complex RPG rules, and welcome were the days of first-person combat and exploration.īeing such a sprawling game, there was plenty of room for modders to have some fun.

With the release of Fallout 3, the post-apocalyptic role-playing game series was no longer the same as before. Pb_user_ / Octo/ Fallout 3 weapon mods expanded / comments
