Modder funkySwadling has created a mod that brings the Fallout 76 experience to Fallout New Vegas. The best part is, you can help test it out: the team behind New Vegas: Multiplayer is accepting applications for beta testers over at its official site.A Fallout New Vegas mod has recreated the MMO experience by adding NPCs who sound like "spammers, raging squeakers, and zergs." Even something as simple as pick-pocketing (a feature that some players choose to ignore entirely) could end up changing the world in big ways. Over on Reddit, the team spoke about how multiple players could influence the world for everyone - for instance, if someone killed that NPC you need to talk to, you won't magically find them alive and well. What's even more impressive is that New Vegas: Multiplayer isn't just about getting a bunch of players together in the same world.

(the game's slow-motion aiming system) has been completely disabled. For instance, in the core New Vegas game, bringing up the Pip-Boy menu freezes the world around the player - considering how obnoxious that would be with so many people trying to use the menu at the same time, opening the Pip-Boy only affects the player using it, not the world around them.

It may sound like a nigh-impossible feat, but the team behind the mod has already made some serious progress: while some major changes had to be made in order to get everything up and running, the modders behind New Vegas: Multiplayer already have a working prototype:Īgain, some major changes had to be made in order to get New Vegas: Multiplayer running properly.

The aptly-named New Vegas: Multiplayer mod is trying to do exactly what its name implies: bring multiplayer gameplay into the world of Fallout: New Vegas.
