fallout 2 replayed - my stats

anarki2

First time out of the vault
WARNING: this post contains a lot of spoilers!

so after my f1 replay, i did one for f2 too. what can i say? it's still a fukin great game, of course! this is my most complete gameplay, it took about 2 weeks and i've completed every quest which i'm aware of and which can be done without karma loss. i also killed each and every evil party. as you can see, my player was a really kind one (2933). i'm idolized everywhere except for klamath and redding, where i'm "just" liked.

i used the latest revived installer, so it's f2+killap+hires patches.

other than that, i specialized on criticals (critical chance 31%!). my gear was adv. power armor mkII, turbo plasma rifle (for distant enemies) and an alien blaster (first bought from willy). sometimes, just for fun, i also used to use the gatling laser. i found the yk42b worse than the plasma rifle due to its shorter range.

as for random encounters, i didn't get too many: crashed whale, federation shuttle, bridge. i killed the guy on the bridge (with criticals), so i got like 10k xp, and his great robes with stats of a combat armor.

my 3 alien blasters were given to vic, cassidy and myron. cassidy was quite good, but vic... that bastard always hit some of us instead of the enemy. myron was completely useless, he always ran away so i usually left him somewhere. i also managed to save the AI into a robot in the sierra army depot. i gave him a gauss gun, and guess what, he was great at it. i also got 2 robodogs, one from ncr and one from sierra. that's a total of 6 party members, which i obviously couldn't "carry", so i always left some of them at a town. speaking of sierra, this was the first time i realized there's a ufonaut in there:

at some point (like at lvl30) i realized i should've been specialized at small guns, since the gauss rifle has a range of 50, and it seems to be better at criticals as well. additionally, you get a lot of "guns" magazines which will improve your skills, but for energy weapons you only get the cat's paw limited edition, once. but it doesn't matter now :)

since the character is gifted, with the power armor and the memory modules (used for surgeries), plus the sunglasses, it has great stats. yet, sometimes i had to use mentats or other drugs to be able to get certain quests or rewards, like becoming the captain in vault city.

in the military base i killed all the company of the supermutant which gave me a huge xp boost (well, at least at that level it was huge), but it required a psycho, otherwise it would be next to impossible.

in reno i got golgotha and the stables on the map, and i digged out the ghoul from the grave. i killed all 3 evil families, but only after compliting their non-evil quests. the bishops are a special family, i accepted mr. bishop's mission, but only to be able to get out after making love to both his daughter and his wife. that way i was able to save them both from turning hostile when i began to kill the family.

interestingly enough, his wife will accept your such requests even after the slaughter, but his daughter will only say "i know it was you!". thanks to my high charisma and high speech level i was also able to get laid with miria in modoc several times without getting married, and thus became "gigolo" and "sexpert" (it took like 30 times though).

in the den i could never complete becky's quests, for some reason fred would never talk to me, but whatever.

i made it into the toxic caves storage room and killed all the raiders too.

in sf i killed the hubologists. in navarro i completed the "quests". that is, i managed to "secure" the fob for the captain, got the vertibird plans by making the 2 maintenance guy to fight, then i killed the doctor to get the robodog, then saved the deathclaw by killing everyone in navarro before he got hit too much (that was *really* difficult!).

in the enclave, i also killed everyone who didn't reduce my karma. so i spared the vice president and some engineers/doctors. interestingly, they usually turn hostile when you initiate attack in the nearby, but if you left the map and return, they will talk to you again. again, i took a psycho instead of pumping myself with stimpaks.

yet, even with 90% damage resistance and an armor class of 50 it was quite nasty when i got 4 guys at once with gauss rifles (plus a blinded turret and a guy with minigun, but they were negligible), all shooting twice in a round... when i completed the slaughter, i talked to the doctor to release the fev, and then exploded the reactors on my own (that is 5000+10000 xp). if i talked to the engineer to explode the reactors, i would only get 12500 (none of these guys will talk to you after you talked to the another, fixed by killap i guess). i also got the easter egg from the "electric floor room". my speech is tagged and over 100% so i got another alien blaster. with the tool i could also disable the electric shocks completely.

my biggest shot was 511 HPs, which is inferior to my all-time shot, which was achieved with bozar to a guard in the ncr bazaar (yes, i killed him with his own weapon, but it was just for fun, i reloaded then).

the funny thing is that i was specialized with energy weapons then, too.

i had some gear in the brotherhood outpost in sf, but after the endings i moved all my important stuff to new reno to the bishop house, so there's all my party and the whore who will always be glad to get laid with me. happy ending!

now, i'd be curious whether's there's any special/rare/hidden quest which you know of and i might have not completed. please let me know! :)
 
Because for reasons known only to Darek and a few other elite gifted ultra NMA forum members you commited some cardinal sin against the Fallout franchise as envisioned by Black Isle!

Probably.

Good read dude, you took a similar route to my last playthrough (moral alignment with energy weapons). Will do another at some point but with big guns. I don't think you missed any particuarly important quests/missions but I'm no expert.

Dude, it's a pirate version! So yeah, basically what you said. ;)

Isn't the revived installer just a means to install on newer computers?
No, it's the full game and that makes it warez.
Or wait... I see that they have split the master and critter dat to a separate download (to make updates smaller).
But they still have a torrent link for the dat files on their homepage.
I tried downloading only the installer part and it told me in big letters that I need to download the data files as well.
Anyone who have done a manual install knows you can just copy those straight over from your CD so there is no need to put them up for download.

While I suppose it's possible to use only the installer bit with your own CD, I doubt that's the case most of the time.
I didn't see that mentioned anywhere and it sort of don't seem to be the idea in the first place.

so, um, if i own the original f2 cd (which i do), but i

1) don't want to go through all the hassle of patching f2 so much that it would finally start on my win7
2) don't even own a cd drive anymore

then i become a bad, evil pirate, right? please don't judge without a clue. even if i pirated the game, it wouldn't render my thoughts worthless anyway. IMHO.

i only mentioned the revived stuff so that you know the patch level of the game. it affects gameplay pretty much.
 
or u can get the Gog version of FO2 which needs no patching, works flawlessly in a modern OS and not feel like a douchebag pirate :clap:

your post is quite offensive, especially coz you're wrong.

1) i don't feel like a douchebag pirate coz i'm not. you should mind your attitude. like i said, i do own the game. it's like saying i'm a pirate if i rip my music cd and listen to it from my hdd, not from the cd. that's just plain wrong (dumb, shortsighted, etc).
2) the gog version does not work as flawlessly as you may think. and why would i pay twice for the same thing anyway ?!
 
I download every game i own....
Because im to lazy to get up to the attic or open all those boxes..
 
Meh I bought them both at least 3 times. Installs from disc fine on x64 vista. I have been lazy enough to do the above post though. It would take between 5 minutes and 2 hours to find them now depending on my luck stat.
Thanks for the runthrough/screens. Two weeks seems like a short time, my last playthrough took like a month and I diddn't even finish the game.
 
thanks!

anyway, i've been informed about a place i forgot to visit, it's the hidden place in the mines of broken hills. i'm gonna try to get there sometime :)
 
What's so hard about copying critter, master, data, and the program and just running it? Does gog or whatever revived means not allow that?
