Subject: ODST=Fallout 3?

Shameless plug for my blog:

Check it!

By the sound of it, it is going to be an open world, character-based (possibly conotates RPG) FPS which requires stealth and rejuvination of health via a Doom-style, stimpack system.

To me, this sounds a lot like it is going to be similar to Fallout 3 in design and playability; which, for me, is surely going to be interesting and most probably awesome.

Any thoughts?

P.S - this isn't a 'Fallout 3 is betr then Halo 4eva' thread or vise versa so just chill it.

P.P.S - seriously guys, chill it.

Well it won't really be a RPG that's for sure, I guess the most similar game I can name would be something like Assasins creed. Rather open world, and with missions around in that will lead the story.

ODST is going to resemble Halo: Combat Evolveds style

Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

No. Fallout 3 is a real time game that's best combat is turn based [V.A.T.S., the rest is very cumbersome] and Halo 3: ODST is an open world Halo game with Health Packs and suppressed weapons.

And it most certainly is not a character based RPG, if it is then you can say the exact same thing about every game where you play as one character.

Simple math, really.

LOL!
I THOUGHT THE COMPARISON FROM HALO TO CRISIS CORE WAS RIDICULOUS!

Wow. The ignorance of your post is really unbelievable. Fallout 3 is NOT an FPS. It does NOT require stealth. Healthpacks/stimpacks were around BEFORE DOOM, believe it or not...

I love how everyone gets all high and mighty on the goddamn internet. Just chill the f*** out. I said Doom-style retard, does Doom use stimpacks for heatlh - YES, would using stimpacks for health in another game be similar then - YES. My god you are retarded.

Fallout 3 IS an FPS, you shoot things from a FIRST PERSON PERSPECTIVE, yes, you can choose 3rd person but most people play FIRST PERSON, what does FPS stand for? FIRST PERSON SHOOTER. Are you first person? Yes, are you shooting? Yes. First person shooter. Admittedly it doesn't require stealth in some parts, but if you want to stay alive on higher difficulty versing large groups of enemies and if you want to steal without being caught then you need stealth.

All I said is that it could be similar and I get a bunch of high and mighty people who can't bloody read coming in and telling me it is ridiculous! It is open world, it is FPS, it seems MORE character based than the other Halo games; here are the similarities.

Oh and I seem to remember saying chill out, so why don't you all CHILL THE FU** OUT!

(Irony intended)

Oh and P.S. major-league irony on your behalf for calling me ignorant! It takes some common sense to make the links I made, it takes a fricken retard to condemn someone for wanting to have a discussion about the possibility of a game being similar to another game. I'm not looking to give people solid facts, just to have a discussion; this board is so fricken uptight, everyone has a goddamn pole rammed up their arse that seems to obstruct their brains in some way..

wow, my dick broke so i ain't getting it for a while!

UPDATE: Defnop552 has confirmed he has fixed his dick.

If ODST is going to be somewhat like Fallout 3 (With the open world design) I think I will love it.

Uhh, you don't even have to use a gun if you don't want to. It's an RPG. Just because a game is in the first person or has the capability to be in first person and you can use a projectile-weapon does not make it a first person shooter any more than Gears of War or Oblivion.

Admittedly it doesn't require stealth in some parts, but if you want to stay alive on higher difficulty versing large groups of enemies and if you want to steal without being caught then you need stealth. You don't have to use stealth at all. Not once is it required in the entire game. Also, but if you want to stay alive on higher difficulty versing large groups of enemies

Since when did "versing" become a word? I don't see it in my language.

Your use of swear words and bad grammar is spectacular. I'm so glad to see you gained so much benefit from graduating Primary school.

Everyone needs to chill out, seriously just because someone decided to make a thread about how Fallout and ODST might be similar doesn't mean you have to totally flame him and tell him he's wrong.

I mean seriously GOD FORBID SOMEONE SAYS ODST WILL BE LIKE FALLOUT!.

I really hope it's nothing like Fallout 3 - I can't stand that game. Either way, I'm in the clear, because it looks nothing like it, and the combat is way more solid in ODST - because it's Halo, and it doesn't have RPG elements like skill progression.

ODST will be a shooter at heart, with an awesome story, gameplay, and environment. Fallout 3 is an RPG that tries to be a shooter, but is still an RPG by design, and therefore it doesn't appeal to me whatsoever. ODST may appear to be similar to Fallout 3, since it is set in a desolated, open-world environment, littered with enemy combatants. However, unlike Fallout 3, it's focus is entirely on combat and story, rather than RPG elements such as moral choices, skill progression, and finding and upgrading weapons.
