Title: BO3 or F4?
Post by: JohnPC on November 06, 2015, 04:26:00 am
I was just trying to figure out which one to buy first.

I was wanting Black Ops 3 for the zombies and [IMO] awesome multiplayer, but on the other hand I want Fallout 4 because...well, Fallout! This really has been bugging me lately and I was wondering if you guys could perhaps help me settle this little dispute. Eventually I will want to get both but which on to get a weeks head start on has been a question of mine.

So type away and give me suggestions!  ;D

In the long run black ops 3 will be a better choice with upcoming dlc maps and possible mod tools . But i would look at your budget and consider this time of year steam has sales ( a lot of them ).
If you are buying on pc shop around for the best price of each game , sometimes the disc is the cheaper option or from a store like g2a.
I never play solo campaigns so this choice would be bo3 for myself. But even though i have the £ to get the game i will wait for sales as i want 3 copies ( local play ) . And if i get it before christmas i will probably hammer it so i have to wait.

what you should be asking is bo2 or battlefront ::)

But honestly if i had too choose between the 2 id choose fallout 4 over bo3. fallout will give you hundreds of hours of gameplay. and will probably keep you going for a while. where as BO3 will probably give a a short 2 days before you chuck your controller at the wall and have a very manly nerd rage. because some 12 year old, ripper knifed you acrossed the map, or time glitched behind you and then shotgunned you in the back. seriously call of duty just isn't the same. the only reason i would buy cod is for the zombies, and even those can only keep me busy for so long, before they get old. i mean the multiplayer is fun sometimes until that specific person, who has no life and plays cod all day, and throws your whole game too shit with borderline hacking skills. At this point Treyarch should just release two games, and make one game for zombies and one for multiplayer/campaign. they would make so much more money.

OMG xDDDDDD Fallout 4 has auto generated quests, a massive story campaign with hundreds of side quests and it is open world. It is getting DLC too and modtools have been confirmed for ages, and that the mods will work on console. So for the long run... fallout 4 will last you multiple weeks before getting old where as BO3 will just be days

As we are all here to mod a 8 + year old game anyway , BO3 may be days for you but for me it will probably be years  :) . Each to their own , considering F4 is a single player game only personally i would never play it . When i was saying "long run" i meant more than 3- 4 weeks :D ( more like 3 - 4 years )

I think games are turned over too fast these days , where more time and effort put into less more quality games would be a better way around it. Simple fact is most games are designed around how to profit rather than how to play well. Seems only a few weeks go by before another mainstream 80 % movie 20 % gameplay offer is shoved down our neck.

There are as many if not more people who simply watch games on youtube rather than playing themselves , they watch it for the entertainment and commentary , and have little interest in actually playing the game .

I was unaware of fallout 4 having mod tools tho so that would change my first response for longevity of the game F4 . And of the mod tools are compatible with console and PC then that is a step in the right direction, i can only hope ( If BO3 has tools ) that they are playable on console , for cross platform co op play and also wider audiences of maps.

I am surprised you say 3 - 4 weeks of black ops 3 when i am sure you will enjoy the custom maps it may offer too Andy.

I type a lot when tired for some reason but i think is all good :D

Lol, I actaully forgot to consider that custom maps would add extra hours lol (GG to me). But still, modtools final release wont be for a while so to the OP, get Fallout 4 then earn money for BO3

I have never played any of the Fallout series. Are they similar Black Ops, and are they as fun?

Fallout is completely different from Black Ops in almost every aspect. Fallout is an open world survivalist kinda game, search it up and read/ watch some stuff.

Fallout sounds like Dead Island? Is it cooperative like Dead Island? I was under the impression it was a single player game.

It is a single player game, no co-op but is still believable fun. And Dead Island isn't really something to compare it to

Let me apply a more serious answer than my previous, kek.

Fallout 4.

While Black Ops 3 is a very enjoyable game I very much love the Fallout franchise, Fallout 3 and NV are both well in my top favorites and I am still playing them to this day proving the replay ability in them.

Black Ops 3, unless it gets Mod Tools, simply won't give the me that same amount of play time as Fallout 4 would, assuming Fallout 4 follows 3's and NV's style of being able to do whatever you want, tons of side quests etc, good and bad roles and so on, then I would go with FO4. :)

EDIT: Of course, this is my personal opinion, Fallout is a game you really need to be into, some people may like Call of Duty.

I feel you can't compare them, as they are 2 different games, but like I said, for me, FO4.

Sounds more like a FPS vs RPG/FPS argument to me, but fair point

I don't understand what's so "great" about the fallout series to be honest. Played New Vegas for about 30 minutes and stopped playing cause I wasn't having fun with it. Mind you, I do love RPG games like that but just didn't find the game "enjoyable".

Maybe I just didn't give it enough chance, IDK.

Yeah I really couldnt stand New Vegas, but a lot of people have told me that its predecessor fallout 3 was much much better

NV - all i thought was - terrible voice acting, a story i didnt follow at all from the minute i put it in the console to 4 hours later, and horrificly stiff animations

I noticed you can search just about everything - then realised you will find nothing tho,

bookcase! empty
pot! empty
crate! empty
Bin! has rubbish in
Desk drawer! plant...

felt more like a exploration game, so i wandered... into a area im guessing i wasnt meant to be as i got absolutely pwned by the first enemy i saw, and i was never able to get back "out" of that area, nor did i really understand where i was meant to be going anyway lol, so just gave up

Too much of what i can only describe as "work" for people who are not already in to the series like ourselves I think

I usually love RPGs too, I have spent 1000s of hours on em, but not this, oh no lol

I guess I just got unlucky by playing the worst game in the series first then, lol.

Why not both?
Fallout 4 for it's in depth story and immensely improved gunplay over it's predecessors.
Black Ops 3 for Zombies and the Multiplayer (Specialists rock). I can't vouch for the Campaign though :please:

It doesn't really bother me, I have both regardless (thanks EB games for a ripper of a deal on both).
But, I've put almost a week into BO3 (in-game time) and haven't regretted it for one second, and I've put about 2 days into Fallout 4, and I've been enjoying roaming around and exlporing, and blowing a Deathclaw to Smitherines with a Mini-Nuke or my Legendary 2-shot sniper Rifle.

So, it all depends on your playstyle really.
if you like to fuck shit up by throwing a hissy fit and slamming some sticks into the ground and kill everything, then play Black Ops 3.
If you want to feel like a badass, and look like one in the process, then play Fallout 4.

Call of Duty games are the most "bleh" recreated money bag games in existence. The only reason to buy a CoD game is for zombies, and considering you are on here and probably play tons of custom Nazi Zombies maps already you don't really need the new BlOps 3. On the other hand Fallout 4 is an amazing game with a whole new world to explore and as you find your son, and by find your son I mean build giant houses and bars and fortresses from the scrap you pick up around you when traveling.

Fallout 4 for sure.
