    I found this game much more enjoyable WITHOUT companions

    Melee is just satisfying. Right now top dog is cowboy-based Brush Gun with hollowpoint ammo (ridiculous damage), however, it sucks against 15DT+ targets and ammo is rare as ****. It also is bugged as hell and will miss a couple shots after reloading despite the bullets fired and animation no...

    [F2]Editing few things..

    Hi. Fallout 2 is a very easy game. making yourself level up faster, get perks each level AND have more APs will break it entirely and it will move from very easy to trivially easy. Unless you're also planning to increase the game's difficulty a lot via modding, it's not the best thing to do...

    Killing Legendary Deathclaw (without relying on bugs)

    Gobi is officially dead now, so Riot Shotgun might be a good way to fight. Brush Gun is bugged but extremely strong in VATS, This machine is weaker (and got nerfed) but bugless, however Riot Shotgun seems the best DPS in non-vats now (from guns category)

    The sniper rifles are so powerful it makes me cry.

    Apparently (in your face, NV's poor balance defenders!) I was right. 1.2 patch nerfed both Gobi and regular sniper rifle to OBLIVION. 40 dam and x1 crit chance now!

    NCR vs mr house

    An interesting note from House's death note: "Leadership: Mr. House survived the war, of course, and would later recruit the Three Families, negotiate the Treaty of New Vegas, and rebuild the Vegas Strip. While these achievements yielded many immediate benefits, they were all part of House's...

    NCR vs mr house

    I argued here once that House was the "best" choice. Now I'm not so sure after some time has passed since my playthrough. One thing is obvious, NCR isn't what some people picture it. THey aren't the daddy cool savior of the wastes, much like BoS aren't goody two shoe Paladins of the...

    Is it possible to mod in fleeing into random encounters?

    Easy to fix. Disable save during combat (already done via sfall) and fix combat so that sniper is no longer god mode = problem solved. As for gambling, the easiest way would be to put a necessary skill check there. LK 10 = big winnings possible, LK1 = the game forces loss every time you play...

    Is it possible to mod in fleeing into random encounters?

    Balancing this game seems pointless. It's a system that's not meant to be a stable base for a challenging set of rules. Everything in this game screams abuse. From pickpocketing massive&expensive weapons for ez cash, to badly scaled rewards for super easy tasks (combat shotgun for running...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Do you think APAs should also be customized? By the tribal markings for instance? Not that it matters a lot seeing that there's just one APA for NPCs and that's after you finish the game, but...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    By 10%. However through superior ammunition it's way easier to hit people with Gauss rifle despite 10% lower skill. I still prefer alien blaster because: - Against advanced power armor wearing target Vic with AB does 104 average damage per turn, including critical chance/damage calculation...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    A vest on a power armor wouldn't look too good :) I'd keep the "unarmored" animations for knife then, if someone ever makes a mistake for giving him a knife, he'd be punished by Vic's performance and looks both :D

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Yeah, I agree. I prefer "helmet-less" animations myself thus if I ever make a Vic-PA set of animations he will be helmetless. What kind of markings do you think would suit Vic? Tribal markings are great for sulik and american flag is great for Cassidy, but for Vic? I'm still thinking about...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Unfotunately the creator of custom look for NPCs didn't make PA animations for Vic. So he uses standard ones. I've been thinking a long time for making Vic PA animations myself since it's a matter of copypasting the head and maybe adding some custom armor mark (gear, maybe? Since he's a...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    I could counter argument but I will be a little busy for now so let me summarize my opinion: I don't like NCR. I don't consider them a good option. NCR may be forgiving, merciful, whatever. NCR may change into an Enclave with people electing radicals one day, or may not. What I'm trying to...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    Huh? we're having a friendly discussion here. Just because many people favor NCR doesn't mean I have to? I give counter arguments for everything. Besides it's just a game. If my opinion on a GAME CANON is insulting to you, I'd suggest simply ignoring this thread :) if an admit or mod tells...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    Question is... Why do you consider them needs - for House. With a small community swimming in money he can as well buy the food. What's the problem? Unless you don't want him to feed you, house you or cloth you. Or you pay him money for it. In such case, he has no right to tell you...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    Aww, Eden is Beth's... I consider FO3 non canon :p The game calls him a leader. And what's the difference if he's self-elected or not? The man who decided on global nuclear holocaust (at least the holocaust of China) and Vault's pseudomedical experience was elected by people. Does that make...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    I have no problem with that. However the game leaves a lot of place for speculation since the endings are vague as shit :( Fanboy? Not really... merely thinking he's interesting, compared to stagnation NCR-support brings, from the player's perspective. Monorailed vision mustn't mean it...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    Can't answer - not explained ingame. we can only speculate that most likely he can develop a tech that allows him to find the planets. Who knows, his tech is so outside-real-world that claiming something "impossible" because something is impossible in the real world is rather out of place. If he...

    Mr. House - Saviour or Tyrant?

    I guess it's because the more planets we have, the lesser chance of humanity getting extinct because a nuclear war emerged. But it's the ELECTED GOVERNMENT of pre-war time that built Vaults (with that "social" experiment series, which was pretty disgusting, reminded me of Nazi pseudo medical...
