    Tim Cain on Fallout and Fallout 3

    Now to play my asshole card: Um...what else good could you say about Oblivion, aside from the graphics, which I think would have lost Tim a lot more than by saying Oblivion was a boring nightmare once you rubbed the hooker make-up off. He is held as an authority in the CRPG genre, and may...

    Nuka-Cola Addict Found

    Hehe...permission to add it to the gallery, or I'll just approve it if you want to add it yourself. :D

    Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

    No, because this sad troll attempt is about to end. Now you're a liar, because I did not change that rule, nor was it edited. The wording of the rules also state that just flaming for the sake of it, like your earlier post, is bad; smart remarks are okay. I know the rules weren't edited...

    Is the BoS an anarchist group?

    Sure, let's completely forget about Fallout 1, and completely adopt the bullshit of FOT and F:POS....and Van Buren. Seriously, go back and play Fallout 1 and learn of their involvement with The Hub and other locations, mostly independent and isolationist save for their attention to that which...

    Oblivion's (lack of) AI

    And simple to load into the cache file as a few background variables that don't really take up much space. Portraits will be for notable NPCs, much like Ultima VII. Some generic NPCs will have portraits as well. Animations will be left for a few special NPCs and joinable NPCs. For the...

    Unable to run FO2 after its installed.

    It has something to do with your path. This problem usually results from using the CD in a different drive than the installation, or a bad manual installation. Now pardon me for asking a semi-redundent question, since without my magic mind-reading cap I can't pull it directly from your...

    Women! Know Your Limits!

    "Over-education leads to ugliness, premature aging, and beard growth." So that explains a few people around here. :D

    Oblivion's (lack of) AI

    Well, it's a curse of knowing design, in seeing how it was made. Being familiar with every aspect of putting together a game also doesn't lend well when you see people making a mess of it. You can see cut corners, sloppy design, and the simple lack of noticable effort; it's a curse that...

    Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

    Aside from that bit of amusement, I have to point out that said rule about flaming is a guideline, and Netiquette *hardly* restricts flaming. It only restricts flame wars, but only if they don't serve any purpose, and giving negative psychological reinforcement to improper behavior is a common...

    Glow Question

    Yup, they wanted me to go nuclear, but I told them to go fuck themselves. About your friend, a true seabee, so prideful about themselves they think they're separate from everyone else. Well, yeah, so were the deckapes, but they didn't boast about it. Much. ;) :P

    Glow Question

    They're both Navy, Seabees are simply the construction workers. "Seabee" is simply a phonetic derivative of their rate initials, "CB". CB = Construction Battalion I was aboard ship, my training including EMP, Radar, Communications, Micro-Miniature, logic gate engineering, and a few...

    Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

    No, it's more like disrespect these forums, we have no obligation to show respect back in turn. Who says rules apply to admins? Hello, we run the place, we decide what goes. Get a clue. I've tried that in the past, yet it's nowhere near as amusing. Now you're presuming to tell us...

    Glow Question

    I believe in that case, they would use in-line expulsion fuses, to both catch the surge and also act as a void for any potential arcs. 50kV/m surges are nasty, but they can be handled. Zax is a mainframe on a military installation, and if it was intended to be nuke-proof, then they would...

    Oblivion's (lack of) AI

    And give me about 3-4 years on mine, but maybe longer, as we're taking the Origin approach to it. It's done when it's done, and we want to make a complete game, I'd even be pleased if takes 6 years to make a brilliant game. The script and design docs alone took about 3 years of writing and...

    Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

    So the fact that someone neglects to follow the rules, netiquette, or persists in logic fallacies, means that I am not to be rude IN RETURN to them? What an amusing little world you live in. Wah. Go emo somewhere else, kid. And with that, I'd advise you to not go the same route of...

    Serifan: That is Bethesda's target audience. Those stupid enough to buy shiny crap, and too stupid to care.

    Todd on FO3:'Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead.'

    One paragraph of dozens others in this thread, and one that was in context of personal interest and the presumption or aversion to arguing about said subject in relation to that degree of knowledge or the lack thereof. To put it in deference to you, since I doubt you would have the patience...

    Glow Question

    Nope, dormant circuitry can still pick up the power, much like how aiming a radar feedhorn into a building at night can uh...be illuminating, with fluorescent lights. The power, at the right levels, can make the lights look as if they are on by feeding power through the gas tubes. A 50kv/m...

    Glow Question

    Elevators are more "electric" than "electronic". Electronics are fine circuitry that will pop when the voltage potential creates amperage sufficient to overload and pop components. Elevators don't have fine components like that. An EMP pulse would likely just be absorbed by the elevator's...

    I need help with keys

    Yeah, looks like it would be cake to replace, a standard keyset and faceplate routine. I found someone selling compatible replacements online, and that keyset doesn't look like it has much complexity to it for installation. At least it isn't a Vaio.
