If nothing, it was one hell of a technical achievement. I never thought I would see vehicle mod surpasses XRE Cars which was astanishing marvel as well.
I think it's very amusing that this was pretty unanimously surpassed by Fallout: London. The Frontier never let go of New Vegas, while London began again, in a completely different part of the world.
I know a lot of it was cringe, but I loved the worldspace, and the cars, obviously. As long as you don’t expect it to be a fallout experience, it’s well worth playing for the cars alone.
the only thing cringe about it is how they treat the courier like hes a "legend" and suck up to him, everything else is completely fine im not sure how it is "edgy" i guess thats just you being soft and biased instead of going off of the facts because it has the same sort of content a call of duty game like mw2 would have. and im sure all the lizard stuff and those deathclaws i heard u can do stuffs with are completely optional since i havent ran into them yet so they arent a problem at all and any mentions of them to make a claim how the mod is "cringe" or "edgy" is instantly, invalidated.
If you ignore the NCR main quest, perhaps doing the Legion one instead, and focus on pure exploration, it's a decently solid experience. Slave Harbor is also quite enjoyable.
People shit on the mod and to some degree deservedly so, but really the only issue is the writing for the most part. This mod is a technical wonder on all other fronts.
Flaws and all, the NCR campaign was something you HAD to experience at least once. Such a crazy acid trip of movie/game tropes in a 20-ish hour experience. The map was cool too and the original weapons, vehicles, and armors were awesome too.

Here’s my Opinion: Most of the side quests are good. The Legion questline is good, Brotherhood questline is boring and the NCR questline is an abomination.
@@admirajachas8058 I think it was fair. I personally enjoy more combat and it IS just a mod. It’s not like it got completely turned into modern warfare. The fallout stuff was still there
I personally had a really good time with it. I think the best of it was up until the outer space stuff and ending I could have gone without. Technically speaking it was a technical masterpiece with some of the scenes and the vehicle combat and there was a LOT to play through, I was on it for about 30hrs
The frontier was directed by someone who doesn't understand Fallout and is very immature. I know this because if you gave Fallout to me as a young teenager I would have made the same kind of shit. Maybe a bit better though, but as an adult I would never kn a million years dare to make this garbage and tarnish Fallout.
"they don't understand meh fallout!!!!!!!" you can fuck a deathclaw "please don't get your filty claws on my fallout1!1" you could fuck a ghoul, now you can fuck a deathclaw. same idea, major improvement
If you dont care about morals in a game where there are plenty of options to not care about morals then its good. The most spectacle out of any mod on nv. The fact they got it to work with everything in it is crazy. Tldr Hey man when in Rome
I played it heavily modded. With low health navigating through the city is tense and exciting. I never played through the story but I liked what I did play through.
The legion campaign is actually really fun in The Frontier. You get way more freedom and the legion campaign exclusive content is cool. Also cool talking robot :D
i kinda enjoyed it tbh because i never touched the NCR campaign, did Crusaders but the best storyline has to be the Legion one, also after so many times it's refreshing to play another big mod for a game you played so much time, even if it's not the best Frontier was at least interesting in environment, location and side quests too
@@nickjaywalkerbe careful bcs you can lock yourself out of the questline if you proceed to archimedes with the ncr, and if you support the crusaders in the early stages of their quest it will lock the ncr. Unfortunately I locked myself out of both after deleting all prior saved so my 40 hour play through was stuck in the frontier
Legion Campaign: OH MY GOD this is everything I wanted and more NCR: Oh my god its SO BROKEN I can't even SetStage it to work Templars: Almost as broken as NCR SPOILERS AHEAD BE WARNED My favorite thing about the Legion path/Ending is with a a speech check I could befriend the man I supported the whole way through, RANCOR and in a Sirree madre style ending we absolutely rule the wasteland together
No, absolutely NOT hahaha! But as someone who's still playing this stinker, it's a fucking trip, brother. He said it best, it's an entire Call of Duty campaign shoved inside Fallout. It's as insane as it sounds hahah! The NCR campaign was just one Hollywood set piece after the other. Hardcase's last stand was straight out of Band of Brothers haha!
all i'm saying is the fact you can play caravan against the final boss if you have the wild wasteland trait is the funniest thing ever. i've never played this mod but that fact alone makes me want to try it at least once
lol the first encounter with the mad scientist was exactly the same as wolfenstein the new orders very first mission, in the castle at the end. has the big mutants and the choice of who to save
Gonna be honest loved very major parts of the mod for example the three main factions i think had great concepts behind them especially the Northern legion i love the theme of them and that their leader isnt blind to what the legion is which made it even cooler. On a side note id love a mod thag adds the northern legion armors brought in to the mojave
I love this mod tbh, the drivable vehicles and the story was decently good plus how you can drive tanks was badass. Despite all the bullshit criticism of the sexual content or whatever, I can care less about all that. I love the dark gritty snow atmosphere that just nailed it with true post apocalyptic grim atmosphere I was aiming for tbh. Minus the horror part where the spider shit and the overall thing was sort of overwhelming and rediculous. I liked the horror aspect of the hanging bodies and the mannequins chasing you, it was creepy but cool but the dogs chasing you and the spider including the big ass black figure was lowkey annoying. and that last thing where you have to fight the bot thing was RIDICULOUS I wasn’t a melee build so my character was fucking weak when it came to hitting it with melee weapons since I was a strong with guns.
It’s such a shame all the talent of those programmers had gone to waste all because they trusted the writing of this mod with literal psych ward patients. I refuse to believe the people who wrote these dialogues and orchestrated the cutscenes are real because I was crying laughing when I first saw parts of this clusterf*ck.
To put it lightly, I was more or less on board all the way up to Hardcase. THEN BLACKTHORNE TOOK ME TO SEE THE AVENGERS HELICARRIER! At that point I knew this story was going to be ass. But god damn it if it didn't entertain me.
Having played the "current" version not too long ago I can truthfully say its not. There are good parts, the worldspace is amazing, the vehicle driving is cool, and it was relatively stable for me (years and years after it launched of course and using a bunch of NVSE fan fixes for stability) but having played the version without all the "smut" drama it just makes the problems with the base game all that more obvious. The NCR questline in particular was bad, cut scene heavy Call of Duty ripoff that just plain doesn't fit the Fallout world. The Crusaders were boring as a faction. The Legion at least looked a bit cooler then the Mojave version. Horrible weapon designs, masks from Killzone in the game, missing icons (though there is a mod for that), an entire companion silent from the voice actress asking to be removed, and some really bad creative decisions, its not a great mod. Which is sad, what is good like the worldspace and driving is downright amazing.
Until recently the Internet Archive had multiple versions of the original uncensored mod, which while yes full pf absolutely bad things, at least had the comedy factor
(sorry if i reposted but my comment got deleted) Man, it's kinda depressing most people only talk about Frontier because of the D E G E N E R A C Y and the controversies and ignore everything else. I mean I used to laugh at the g00ner cringe but it's been years..I'm tired of hearing about snakes and deathclaws and Blackthorne's intense Courier s1mping. So frustrating how some promising modders and left NV completely because they'd be associated with the sh!tshow or were entirely burnt out. Some didn't have anything to do with the project and contributed genuinely good features, only to just up and leave in the end. Honestly maybe trying to make such a huge-scale project was a mistake. I liked Scrapz at least.
I played through the Crusaders and honestly just found it a bit boring, especially compared to how you go to fucking space in the other two. Nope, just send a missile, problem solved.
It was a technological breakthrough and paved the way for KNVSE as well as bringing actual driving mechanics into fnv, but do to the absolutely god aweful petty bullshit from some of the authors and the complete mismanagement of the mod as a whole, we will never see the driving mechs as a fully polished standalone feature and the mod requires a completely outdated version of JIP or ROOG that it is essentially unplayable at this point.
Played the later released censored version. There should be some of the original versions online, which have all the comedically bad things, such as the sewer lizard alcoholics
This! Ive always had the opinion that while there are many mods much better in terms of writing, The Frontier is still something to be looked at and expericenced. too many people dont even play it because of what they have heard.
they did go beyond in the technical parts, but the writers really went way too far with the forced fetish crap and star wars sci fi crap. the frontier couldve been a winter wilderness survival story mod. this is more of a reason why not all modders need to work with bethesda, they go too far with stuff and add in stuff which breaks lore and ruins the setting. its like if the modders get work on elder scrolls 6 and for some reason, there's a settlement full of dwemer who somehow invented gunpowder and made a dwemer musket.
It's a great mod. Enjoyable, however Id change the liberator being planned for the legion so General could finally send the ncr boys home. Rancor plan is to use it against the NCR and betray the general. Id also add a focus of the Crusaders Joining the NCR Exiles and alliance to rebuild the frontier to a thriving civilization.

Patrolling the Frontier almost makes you wish for a Mother Deathclaw Statcheck.
I think it's very amusing that this was pretty unanimously surpassed by Fallout: London.

I'll have to play though London! It's on my radar.

I'll have to find the garage and try to fix up the car! I love that kind of stuff
It’s cringe, it’s edgy, it’s not very well written… but it sure does look good. Hey! Bethesda made a New Vegas mod!
it might be all of those bu it was fun like hell
Legion stuff is actually decent.
Nah. As incompetent as Bethesda is, they would've definitely made something better than this.

As call of duty ? Its really fun game. As Fallout rpg ? It sucks

Totally! Part of me wishes it would've ended after the space mission.
In the wise words of a funny singing rotating man... "I'm only human after all, don't put the blame on me".
The frontier was directed by someone who doesn't understand Fallout and is very immature. I know this because if you gave Fallout to me as a young teenager I would have made the same kind of shit. Maybe a bit better though, but as an adult I would never kn a million years dare to make this garbage and tarnish Fallout.
