Dude this was in one of my previous posts. What else is there to know about the Fallout System. You got your attributes, skills, hp, Feats, etc. And Basically your attributes dictate how good you are in their given general area. You then have skills to fine tune how good you are at different...

I am curious would Fallout 3 be good if the engine was similar to that in NWN? Because like in another topic I posted in it seem many were steadfast on keeping it exactly like fallout 1/2 (ie 2d engine).

On a brighter note, anyone else want to make a list of what we would like in Fallout 3. Where we can debate whats in, whats out and get Bethesda involved? This way we can attempt to get a clear concensus of our suggestions and make it easy for Bethesda to see it? IMO this would be the best...

THIS was shown before the really long one, sorry if I sound rude . . . I am not trying to weasel myself out, there are plenty of storytelling games (most modern games IMO). I am saying that most games that use player stats, like fallout, have their base in D&D. D&D was the first game to do...

If you read nothing else, read the last paragraph! This is a rebutal to the 2nd post by Roshambo, you can skip it because I wrote this other one to the first but then my internet went screwy: It is amazing what, dont worry Bethesda will do fine, give them some time, lets us (the...

I can not win, can I? As to the view, I just do not think a Publisher or the financial people at a game studio would allow a game of this size to not be in 3d, like in NWN. And what I meant by using the old engine is the view. You can not have a set view in a modern game. You need to...

Yes that is true, they share the names of many attributes and and skills. I would also assume that strength interacts with the engine similarly in both games. IE effect melee damage etc. Sorry if the above was not directed at me but I KNOW I clearly stated they were similar and not the same...

Not sure if this was directed at me, but since it seems like everytime I reply to a message there is another I might as well go another round. I think the majority of Fallout fans, myself included, would welcome the isometric view in Fallout. However in todays gaming market, you can just not...

I am being hit from all sides I am not JeffK, and if you are implying that, "I also do not understand you great disrespect for me, what have I done?" is the reason for disrespect then you have not read the multiple posts clearly at me. They did not even consider the possibility of me being...

Yes but I believe many of the biggest complainers want Fallout 3 to look like Fallout 2 (use the same engine) and not go full 3d like NWN. Granted it would not bother me, but they need to make money and only 3d like in NWN would work.

The experience and skill rules do not take a long time, it combining that with a current game structure that would be difficult. Say you make rules.h file that would contain all the stat objects and how things are rolled. IE: Have a function when you attack, with separate variables/functions...

The view I am refering to is not the 3rd person crap in Morrowind, but the one NWN. And please do not say because they did in Morrowind they will do it in the new Fallout game. Sigh, you guys are too close - minded. I said that that Morrowind used special but things were different. You...

Well if you expect a big game to be released in 2D like Fallout 1/2, then you are delusional. The game will be 3d, accept it because there is nothing you can do to change that. Lets just hope it has a view like in NWN (option 1st person fine), and not the crappy 3rd person as there is in...

Depends on what you mean by "Isometric View", I can almost guarentee how they will do this. option of 1st or 3rd person with a 3rd person like nwn. This is what they are doing in Vampire TMR: BLoodlines and it is turnbased to my knowledge. Morrowind used the special system. Although the...

First off I have been a long time Fallout fan and would have to call them my favorite games. I will also say that Morrowind is also one of my favorite games. I think many people are being way to critical of Bethesda and believe they can get whatever they want. Let me first discuss Bethesda...
