Huge DLC announcements by Bethesda

... You're blind, aren't you?

For one, the barrel is too long. The Hunting Rifle has a shorter barrel, and the wood goes further up.

But, if you add a stock to the Sawed-off Shotgun, and extend the barrel, it looks almost exactly like the one in the screenshot.

I swear to god.

First of all, it's impossible to tell. You can't even see if there's a second barrel on it, so who the hell is blind again?
Second of all, that could be a new rifle. It looks a lot more like a rifle than a shotgun.
And third of all, why is it even a big deal if there's a double barreled shotgun? Who the hell cares? It's just a more accurate sawn off. I'd rather use the Combat Shotgun anyways.

It looks more like the rifle that was in GTA: SA. I can't believe I have to wait till August to get that disc. Right when I go back to school I can get it. ;__; If that was a shotgun, I wouldn't use it since shotguns aren't very good. If you use short range, it would be Unarmed skill based or Melee skill based.

The internet does a lot of things to pictures. The size is completely different than from in the game, so who cares. And Cybernetic, you obviously don't get the avy, either I'm the only one who knows what it means or Animefreak does too. By the way did you get your last ingot?

I still can't find it. I've checked every location the guide says and still can't find it.

Did you get the one next to the Man Opener?

Check this guide. It claims that one of the three in number 14 are often missed.

Yeah that one is easy to miss. It is on the dresser next to the bed.

Thanks for telling me about that hard to find one, that was the missing one. It blended in with the rocks so it was very hard to find.

Point Lookout takes place in the Fallout equivalent of Point Lookout State Park, a new swampland area filled with a main quest, and several sidequests. Its incarnation in the Fallout setting is supposedly more of a "seaside vacation town with a boardwalk" and said to have a larger landscape where "the bombs didn't actually fall, but the world has left it behind". Being designed by Joel Burgess and Nate Purkeypile, it has been stated it will have a "swampy-horror vibe" and will be the most open-ended of all DLC packs.

New features:

Weapons:
Double-Barrel Shotgun
Hatchet
Shovel
Punga Fruit

Armor and clothing:
Civil War Hat

Locations:
The Duchess Gambit
Point Lookout
Mansion
Trapper Shack

Characters:
Tobar

New perks
New enemies.

I believe I won, Loony.

Edit- Forgot to mention it's being released on June 23rd.

Yay info is now up on it. Civil War Hat = amazing. A hatchet will be awesome too.

Nice one Animefreak. That's it! There better be something better than a Civil War Hat. I mean come on I was expecting something better for the clothing/armor. The double barrel and the hatchet will be nice though. And what the hell is a Punga Fruit. Maybe something poisonous or some type of a grenade.

I honestly wouldn't mind a Civil War outfit, to go along with my handlebars.

When I read it, I though the Punga Fruit was under the items category, but when I re-read it, it was under weapons.

Maybe a new grenade-type fruit? I dunno. Interesting though.

Also, have a trailer.

No, you still lose, because no one cares about the double barreled shotgun. Wow, two barrels? Awesome! I can use it as a club to play golf after I kill all my enemies with the Terrible Shotgun. Besides, you're the only one so devoted to proving that one gun is coming out in a DLC pack that you'd hunt down the statement like a wolverine just to prove some guy you've never met that he's wrong about a video game. Nice work.

I'm just waiting around until August so I can actually get Point Lookout. And Broken Steel. Awesome.

No word on Fallout: New Vegas at E3 yet. Bummer.

I haven't heard any news about any Fallout at E3. I want Broken Steel a lot more then Point Lookout. I'm tired of having a lowish Science and Lockpick skill. I also need that Grim Reaper perk or whatever it's called so my AP fills after I kill someone in VATS. The Point Lookout info is available on the Vault so not really hunting it down. Also It said the shotgun would be pretty awesome even though I'd rather use my Gauss Rifle.

I think double barrel would be sick. They will probably make a special one that does more damage than the standard. I bet it will do more damage than the Terrible Shotgun too. And Loony I believe Anime won because the only thing that is looking good on this DLC is the double barrel and the new quests and perks.

Did you see the crazy looking mutant holding the hatchet?!

THAT is the coolest part of Point Lookout. Screw a stupid shotgun. Good with the fruit and a hatchet.

Come on it's a hatchet. And that guy looks familiar I think I've seen him. And what is up with the Punga Fruit. Are you going to ask people if they want to touch your Punga Fruit and if they do they die? Oh no it's a trap, but I can't resist!

The dude looked like Sloth from that one movie(think the Goonies but not sure). I see your character doesn't go for melee. Well my doesn't either but I've moved more towards melee lately, but the problem is that I have after I reached the level cap. They should've moved the level cap to 40 instead of 30. (Well then again, I don't have Broken Steel so I'm not sure if 30 is good enough.)

Once again: Double Barrel Shotgun = Sawn-Off Shotgun. If it truely is more powerful, then it will probably be a slightly more accurate version of the Kneecapper. I prefer the Terrible Shotgun. More rounds before reloading, quick shots, powerful.

Obviously you've never played a Fallout game besides the Bethesda one. The Double-Barrel Shotgun is more for nostalgia, than anything else. Now, go play Fallout 1.

Actually, they showcased it on E3, along with Todd Howard announcing it's release date, and the wiki article was posted on a different gaming site I go too.
