Ive been playing the frontier just to see the shitty aspects of it so its been kinda surprising when i run into something i like. If i had to pick one thing id say at least the little cut away segment at the battle of helios one was actually kinda neat, although the "execute your men" shit was cheesy

I found out I was lactose intolerant when they did the cheesy climax from CoD: Modern Warfare (2007) where the enemy executes all of your fallen comrades in front of you.

However, credit where credit's due: the firefights were extremely well orchestrated.

I somewhat liked a bunch of the weapons. Some parts of the environment were well-designed as well.

Armors were decent. Environment was also good. The new driving mechanics could have really been the framework for many other mods improving upon it, adding more stuff etc.

Honestly, while I have criticised this mod, I do find that many aspects of it were well-done and well executed. That's what makes it so tragic. If the writing and quest design was on par with the innovations made on a technical level this mod would've been beloved. Instead the NCR writer thought he was channelling Hideo Kojima but came off more like a budget Call of Duty Neil Druckmann, the Crusader writer was a stinky feet fetish weirdo who made a grooming dialogue option and the side quests were filled with all manner of vomit-inducing nightmarish furry fantasy degeneracy.

Armors were pretty great, weapons too. Most of the intense battles were awesome, the technical stuff in general was pretty good, they really pushed the engine (in some cases too much, it looked like the modder was really pushing everything to the limit). The car stuff was great (judging by how they had to use this damned engine), like Heinsenberg said, it could have been a framework for other mods and also it could have been improved a LOT.

The Frontier will become the framework for other mods, the drivable vehicles will become stand along, so will the pipboy, among other things in time. If stand alone mods are not approved of on the Nexus then I am sure they will find a home here or elsewhere.

The side content! Stuff like Irvington, Salt Town, Junkflea! The exploration was great too! I genuinely love just roaming Portland. Vault 6 had such a cool design, I loved the massive door and the sprawling complex, it was SPECTACULAR, it felt like a marriage of all the best Vault designs (a shame the experiment was just Vault 12 again). Also of course, the Pip-Boy, god I love the Pip-Boy so fuckin much.

The companions are cool too (the non-weird ones), I love Hanged Man, Wrench and Bolt, Donovan, and uh the spy lady is cool I just haven't progressed that far with her.

The small bits of characters who've clearly been part of things we hear about in lore, hell a lot of the characters are really interesting, it's just that they're small side characters, not the main cast.

There's a lot of good here, it's just a shame it wasn't all that way.

What sticks out to me are the Power Armors, Demon Crusher and Enclave Cosmic I believe they are called. Honestly, from the screenshots I've seen, they are all that truly interest me. Would honestly love to see a Standalone version of those two PAs in the Mojave.
