    Dungeon crawler

    Ever since meeting dad in the game, I have been doing quests that involves dungeon or fighting or both. I am so tired by those now. I am at the "point of no return" (i.e. game ends if i continue), and trying to rack up all the side quests. The only breathe of fresh air I got recently was the...

    Dungeon crawler

    Does anyone feel that the game was made into a dungeon crawler? A lot of the content was made around the destroyed metro system, caves, hostile installations, and rundown vaults. Most of which contain non-negotiating enemies. In both F1 and F2, you can negotiate with raiders, infiltrate most...

    Charisma

    Is there even any use for this stat now? Considering it is not used to determine number of companions anymore, the only other useful use is Speech, and for that we can just spend some points leveling it up. I don't remember any real useful charisma checks in the quests either.

    Inflexibility of Main Quest

    I am an old schooler who is not bothered by the aesthetics or mechanism changes in Fallout 3. What I am upset about is the inflexibility compare to original Fallout particularly the main quest. I remember Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 each had only 2 main quests. For Fallout 1, the two main quests...

    Chinese patch?

    UK version doesn't work either. Applying the US/UK patches caused the game to turn off Chinese enconding, which made all the words unintelligible ASCII characters. I found out that I can load the save files from US version of the game, so I assumed the game is patched to the point that the...

    Fallout 2 crashing in XP

    i can tell you i see something like what you describe (pixelated image) when i tab in and tab out. The instant i tab out, I see pixelated screen until the other program fully loads. You should try to make sure that no other program is trying to display on top of the fallout game screen. You...

    Chinese patch?

    I can post some screenshots if you like. The game was published by this Taiwanese company called Interwise, which did the translation. Apparently, their website has no mentioning of the game at all. As far as I know the regular US/UK/other patches are just Winzip extractors. I would not...

    Chinese patch?

    Are there patches for the Chinese versions of Fallout 2? Where might I get one. It would be also nice if you can direct me to a Chinese Fallout forum.

    Making gambling more useful

    Gambling can take many forms. To the extreme, we can even say that taking risks are gambling. In Fallout 1 and 2, there were card games, casinos, and slot machines. However, there was no boxing bets, fight bets, or lottery. Even though some cities might not allow gambling, there could be...

    Food in Fallout world

    Here's my idea of incorporate food and water into fallout gameplay. Pretty long read, so bear with me. Tell me if you are for or against it. Please justify anything you say. The player will need food to survive. There is a hunger stat, which decreases as the character moves about. Its...

    FN weapons are more realistic..

    In the wasteland, there are so many different guns from "the War" that I think we should just generalize, eg sniper riffle, assault riffle, etc. There is going to be thousands of different models that no one can list them all. Fabrique Nationale (FN) is Belgian and Kalashnikov (K of AK) is...

    How do you Ban weapons in Multipalyer?

    People are expected to be honest when playing MP. For those commonly banned items, you can tell if they are using them either by there animation or there damage. Bring a guy with Awareness will also help. So far I haven't met too much lammers in this game.

    I still can't aim, and no fast shot trait

    actually you do get it in CTB. You click on the circle to aim, right click to set where to hit.

    quick pockets

    In the good old days of FO1&2, anything you did in the inventory will only cost a total of 4AP (2 with quick pockets), so you can do everything in inventory if you have quick pocket. Now it doesn't, it counts the number of action you did, etc. Quick Pocket should reduce the AP required for...
