The Frontier is a DLC(But bigger) sized mod that aims to bring a unique experience to Fallout: New Vegas. The Frontier takes place in the frosty areas of Portland Oregon, where the NCR and Legion fight over the frozen city.
The team behind Fallout: The Frontier has just released a new trailer for their massive Fallout: New Vegas Mod, which can be viewed above. The mod, which moves the action to the snowy terrain of Portland, Oregon, gives players entirely new environments to roam. The team says the landmass equates to 16 square kilometres (larger than New Vegas’ Mojave Wasteland), and features new weather effects that also affect survival gameplay.
The team describes how they settled on Portland as the game’s location:
“Portland, Oregon was chosen for many reasons. I know some of you from Oregon may say, there is no way in hell that Portland gets this much snow and some location in Canada may fit better with the Frontier. While this is true, keep in mind that it would have been even harder to fit the NCR and the Legion that far up north with a reasonable explanation. Right now, the reason for a lot of snow in Portland is, when the nukes hit this location, a cloud of dust and ash went up and blocked the sun. So everything under, essentially froze over.”
The mod’s story sees you trying to survive the cold, as well as threats from the Legion faction and local scavengers and slavers. The team also says the moral choices present in Fallout’s official quests will play a large part in The Frontier’s scenarios, though they’ll be based around the theme of survival against harsh conditions. In addition to the freezing wasteland, The Frontier will also take players into space, where they’ll fight low-gravity battles on orbital platforms
Fallout: The Frontier has not yet been released, but the FAQ estimates work is almost three-quarters done. The mod will require a copy of New Vegas as well as its four DLC packs, since the mod uses content found throughout all of them.
80% people, just 20% more. Lets be patient
Would be a shame, if it become a dead mod.
It's been like that for months, maybe even a year.
But yeah, let's be patient, they said that it should get released by the end of 2018.
They don't seem to be active as much though, last post was earlier in April, you can check their Twitter, no need to create an account, I don't even own one myself and I don't intend to.
All I can see is wait and see.
by the look of the twiter feed its somewhat alive :D
I hope that project is still alive...
Well , even if the mod would release tomorow , i would still have to wait for a new PC to handle it.
will we be able to play as the legion? or is it one of those mods that have you side with NCR?
He said "play as the legion", which means really belong to the faction, that is not the same as just supporting them as it happens in the "FallOut: New Vegas" normally.
-Happens the same for any other faction in the game, as with the N.C.R. with its useless & corrupt politicians.
Wamt to know that too, I'm tired of NCR sided mods, always forcing to ally with the bad guys. :/
Hope you can play as the good guys from the Legion.
Good guys - legion? Then i want a game where i play good guy nazi or soviet? C'mon.
There is a mod which changes the NCR into the Soviets and the Legion into Nazis.
i guess sarcasm is a foreign language to u
Umm... I don't think he was being sarcastic, you know.
In NV you could ally with Legion so I don't get what is wrong.
From what i saw at FAQ, your side is determined by choices in original campaign.
Now adjusting mods to be compatible and starting new campaign, BTW does anyone is the "Fallout character overhaul mod" compatible with Frontier?
Determined by choices in the original campaign?
That seems great since I sure love wearing my skirt with the other boys.
the furry trap made the comment a lot better...
