    Assault Rifle designs.

    Personal opinion ahead: I just disregard any FO4 'design' concepts, to me, my head-cannon firmly places that the USA was using what we see now as current 'real' modern weapons there is no viable reason the technology of weapons design and manufacture should deviate too far into the Fallout...

    I just finished Fallout 4 and I have questions about the Institute

    What did the institute want? "Yes", [Sarcasm] "Synth's are people too", "Yes", "Well duh, how do you think babby is formed" </snark at INT 10 conversation in a game with only 4 static responses which commonly are all exactly the same outcome or utterly redundant comedic responses> Real...

    Should I... Play Fallout 4? [Details in body]

    Just to be utterly clear: No weapons, at all just unarmed fists. Not even grenades... No mods, vanilla game only. Additionally, I decided to go back and do 1 & 2 before I even contemplate this ... I think Fart-about 4 might just be too bad for me to even really consider adding it to my 'no...

    Should I... Play Fallout 4? [Details in body]

    I think Black Angel has the best idea, go back to roots! It's been a moderate amount of time since I last played either of the classics, so heck, why not! ^ nail, head, apply force.

    Should I... Play Fallout 4? [Details in body]

    Some interesting points raised, but the polling currently sits on the side of sanity suggesting I avoid the ordeal. As to the comments, I honestly never found FO4 to be anything other than annoying, not 'hard' I played the entire game on Ultra-survival Mo-fo mode and it felt like the most...

    Should I... Play Fallout 4? [Details in body]

    So, I have a strange question of NMA, and I trust you guys and gals, so here goes. Some of you may know (but unlikely) I took a grudge match against Failout 3 seeing what, if anything, the potential limits of just playing the game in a self-restricted way would present. Admittedly I went into...

    Resource War was fought over oil but cars ran using nuclear power

    To follow what @CerberusGate has written, I seem to have my brain lodged with the information that the majority of mechanical (vehicular and otherwise) engine power was still based on fossil fuels. It's one part of the lore that FO3 and FO4 fail to deliver is that 'the average joe' was, by the...

    Fallout with the best written dialogue? (Please provide a quote from your choice).

    Fast travel in continuous gameworld

    Here's how I see things; If you sit at a table, with character sheet infront of you, some dice and your chosen snacks... You turn to the Games Master and say; "Okay, I think we should get back to town now to sell this sweet loot we have" In almost every game... the GM will most likely roll a...

    Oh Lord, why has this not already been posted?

    Yup agree with you, The movie itself was a solid 5/10, certainly not as fun as the trailers make out, but not a waste of time watching. I chuckled a few times so I'm not afraid of the few bucks I spent renting it on Youtube. And @Risewild I'd agree the Apple character was well done, honestly...

    Oh Lord, why has this not already been posted?

    Turbo Kid; Honestly, this looks like a tongue in cheek B-movie style film which captures what I see as 'classic' fallout. It's got OTT blood, silly humour in a horrid wasteland and 'fun' characters to explore the post-nuke world. EHR MEH GHERD I'm so watching the whole thing... another bit...

    The Legality of Using S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

    ITT: People that recommend GURPS http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/ On a side note: I'm sure whatever you're dreaming up, as long as you're not planning to sell, market or widely publicise your 'thing' then it's unlikely that Bethesda will ever even be aware of you or your use of 'SPECIAL' Just...

    How many of us actually finished FO4?

    I finished it in every possible solution (with save game abuse...) ... and I've spent time 'enduring' most of what the game offers in it's game world. I can honestly say, the game offended me by becoming progressively worse the deeper I went. The main quest line is an abuse of human intellect...
