I've actually been meaning to pick this one up, especially since the enhanced edition came out. It's kinda become our thing since the beginning that we sit together and play each fallout, but we'll branch out with other stuff all the time. Thanks for the recommend though, I'll deffo be getting...

When the dust settles and we look back, will we be okay with what we see?

Okay, this is pretty interesting at least. So you could pick up something completely at random that gives major benefits, that comes with a serious trade-off and a considerable rad-count (no one ever calls it Grays or Sieverts... although Fallout: Nevada uses the legacy term Roentgen... there's...

I have a few questions regarding this playthrough. * You mentioned before that you lost control of the point after you logged out. Is this a permanent hazard for all occupied zones? Would you need someone in your group logged in 24/7 to retain control of a region? I may be misunderstanding...

Oh, I do agree that the story should branch out a bit to new locations. I think I recall they wanted to take it to other parts of the world at some point. Was it FO-tactics 2 or that Fallout:Xtreme game that wanted to go to mongolia? I forget and am too tired to google. I kinda mashed my words...

I think we project a lot of personality onto characters in Fallout 1/2. A lot of them we don't even get to see their faces. Compare Ian (long hair, biker leathers, loves chems but wary of the stronger stuff, doesn't mind shooting people in the back). Not much else to go on with him, since he...

They aren't pure evil. That is a misnomer. They are a pastiche of what a lot of people thought of the American government, or at least the crazier side of it. You've got secret experiments on people, you've got 'black helicopters' full of faceless enforcers, you've got a batshit crazy president...

Ridiculous cartoon villains are something new to the franchise. In FO 1/2, everyone had a goal, a motive, a point of view. You might not agree with them, but you could, if you saw merit in their ideology. New Vegas got it right. I actually enjoyed talking to Caesar; his ideology was similar to...

I'll admit, I'm also looking forward to Wasteland 3. :ok: Great post by the way.

I think it's a shame that the vast majority of players will remember Fallout for this, and the modern games, rather than the originals. New Vegas is also a write-off, since the buggy gameplay, clunky appearance, and relentless scifi western theming (although excellent) turned a lot of people...

Noticed some of the journalists writing their first impressions also: https://www.trustedreviews.com/news/gaming/fallout-76-beautiful-lonely-wasteland-wrong-ways-3612215 https://www.pcgamesn.com/fallout-76/beta-gameplay Some choice quotes: "Players began appearing as I approach the Vault’s...

Happy birthday Dutch Ghost! Hope you have many more :D

You can mod it pretty well with the included tools that get sorted with the patch. I made a little mod that replaces all the anachronistic kalashnikovs and sig-sauers with weapons from Fallout1/2 and New Vegas. Made deathclaws hard as nails, like they should be. Was pretty fun when I got the...

Oh sure, probably starting with the losing currency. Well....when they get the chance. My courier always puts off the hoover dam until the last possible moment, since it's one-way-ticket-town. "Yeah, I know the battle is about to start! I was just there. What are you, an anchorman now? Just...

Sounds like..... Fallout: Total War. :cool: A lot of the background is shrouded in mystery regarding pre-war events, as it would be. Would be an opportunity to add some story details.

This is also from the wiki, concerning the new vegas treaty between House and NCR: "In this agreement, Mr. House conceded the McCarran Airport to the NCR to use as a base of operations in the Mojave Area. House also accepts that the NCR occupies a small building within the Strip which functions...

Well, judging by the end of Tactics, we've got the Calculator's takeover of the Midwestern brotherhood, so that could put a downer on their efforts if you want to stay true to brotherhood ideals. I think the whole point of the brotherhood rebels were that they were supposed to be different in...

I'm guessing they mean this: http://www.nma-fallout.com/threads/the-ct-phipps-talks-about-things-he-liked-in-fallout-4-thread.209933/ I haven't heard much from the Frontier guys. Their last update I saw was only three months ago, so, that could be good news. One I've been watching is Fallout 4...

Hey buddy! Yeah, I finally joined up. Been meaning to for a while now. Guess I'm learning how to be sociable again :P I would loved to have seen the BOMB001 plotline explored. They also missed out the opportunity for BOMB002, crashing in the grand canyon. Would have been some good salvage there.
