Hello GUNners!
It's your friend dragbody here wishing you a Happy New Year!!!
You know what a new year means?!? It means it is almost time for the fourth annual New Vegas New Year
As you know, we are starting our play this year on Feb 1st instead of Jan 1st. What does that mean for January though?
It means we can take the next month to some/all/none of the following:
1. build your Courier 2. write their backstory 3. write a short story on your Courier's origin 4. build your load order 5. make a post about the mods released in 2019 you are adding to your load order this year 6. finish some mods you are working on (If your name is dragbody, then that means finishing the Legion)
The rules for the playthrough are simple.
Create a new character and start a new playthrough on or shortly after Feb 1st, 2020.
Play and share your screenshots and/or short stories during the month.
(Optional) Conclude your game by the end of the month.
(Optional) Share a character profile on this thread
If you intend to join, please announce your intention here and I will keep a running list going of participating members.
If you want to share a character profile, you can do so using this template:
Courier Profile:
Also, our friend TheKShow has created an awesome New Vegas video that should serve to get you pumped like it did last year! Have a look:
In case you are wondering, this New Vegas playthrough welcomes TTW players as well. For that matter, any special stipulation about your playthrough that you fear may disqualify you from participating, don't worry about it! Creativity is encouraged! Try a new style of play. Try an alternative start. Make different choices than you usually do. (Play for the Legion! Haha) Have fun and experiment! As long as you start a brand new game on or shortly after Feb 1st, you are in
I hope many of you will join us! I hope you will share your backstories soon. I am going to write a short story and I hope I won't be the only one.
Again, Happy New Year! Happy Gaming! And Happy Modding!

Woohoo! I'm excited for this one. I haven't been active on GUN for a while so this will be the perfect time to get back into the groove of things. I have a feeling this Community Playthrough is gonna be very special.
Oh, and happy new years!

You could play in January and share your images and story just before leaving. April/May will be a little late and this thread will likely be cold by then. But some of us may keep it going so we’ll see!

I definitely will be participating. I just need time to get my new computer running. I'll fill out the template, but do you have any examples from previous years to help me with? I might get way into it and don't want to over do it.

I keep missing out on this and unfortunately, I still can't attend this annual playthrough as life for me is getting busier and sadly more depressing. But as always, I love reading these stories that you guys post. That's one great thing to look forward to.

My computer is in between life and death but it may just pull through in time for the playthrough...
Go ahead and put me down but if I have complete radio silence, then we know she's passed on to a better place

@Karn
Like where to purchase the game? If so, then Steam... Sorry I'm a bit confused I can also PM my mod list if you want a decent list of mods to go through.

Hello everyone!
I'm sorry I haven't posted in this thread a more. Real-life continues to be busy and I'm still plugging away hard trying to finish the Legion mod.
I won't have the Legion completed before 2/1 so I will be starting the playthrough a little late. If you want to wait to start your playthrough until the legion mod is ready too, then that's totally cool. But please don't wait for me if you want to get started!
I'd love to see some courier profiles! I can't wait to introduce you to my Legion courier, Charlie "Calligula" McAllister!

This is amazing, I am already in a new playthrough, I wish I had known about this sooner! I can't wait for your next few mods drag, I am super excited for the raider overhaul and the new leigon overhaul. I am trying to get permission for legion will ryse ASAP because I really want to try out some of your amazing mods.
EDIT: Making my courier profile card right now, it should be done by tomorrow.

Might be able to join in this year assuming I can make the time to stop modding and actually play the game.
