Fallout Comic

Or would it not bother them if I write it a time for Jinx, to say become a Kama Sutra Master without actually dedicating my level 6 perk to it?

Doesn't matter, because putting a "Kama Sutra Master" Perk in a Fallout 1-based story already jeopardises the gameplay-oriented accuracy ;)
 
I was thinking of giving Jinx animal friend after he gets dogmeat, and tossing him swift learner, because ... well he is. Also once I get my combat armor on, I will have Ian hit Jinx on accident a few times, and therefor jinx will get the dodger perk because he learns to expect getting hit.

Dobbs: your absolutly right. I will end up getting the chip with like 75-80 days left, I will need to go back and over dramaticize the times after I know exactly how long it will take me.

Glad you guys like it still!
 
I'm enjoying the comic too. Great job!

I think it would be better if Jinx gets the Perks that you assign to him in the game and at the time you assign them, but that's just my opinion.

Another possibility to draw things out so that there is less time remaining when Jinx returns with the water chip is to take one or two side trips. For instance, after leaving the Hub he could go to Lost Hills or the Boneyard before visiting Necropolis. That could eat up a huge chunk of time.
 
Yeah but if I spend to much time, Necropolis will be overrun by mutants.

But necropolis is going to be a huge problem anyway, as you can see from the scorpion caves, "dark" places don't appear well. One step at a time I suppose.
 
Cheat the game, give him the nightvision perk or something. The content of the game you play for your screenshots isn't as important as the comic, unless you're planning on showing the whole character screen. Even then, just create another savegame and then cheat that for the screenshots, while having your "real" char. untarnished so to speak.

:idea: Just an Idea, there's got to be at least one random encounter sometime.
 
Yeah I have had a few already, but it's just rad scorpians. No story telling. So I ignored them.

Nightvision is an awesome idea though! I never even thought of that. It would really help the dark places. But for my perk question I was actually planning on adding perks, that represent game mechanics. Like my quick pockets perk. Or an example I am planning, tagging the pack mule perk once I get a backpack from killian. Since the bag will allow him to carry more stuff.
 
Hey guys sorry for the long absence. Good news is I have actually begun re-making my site, instead of just talking about it. This is good news because not I am motivated to get my comic done. I don't have anything new to share yet, except that my website is back up, and the link to the comic has changed slightly. I have updated my sig so it's correct.

So fix your bookmarks!!!

I will shoot for a new update for the end of this weekend. I will need to do some experimenting in Junktown to see what quests I want to do and which to ignore.
 
You are great!

I read it quickly and it was very inspiring. Now i think about made similar one but with different, fiction story (because based on mod, not original game)

Do you used "golden oldie" fonts?
 
Not sure what you mean by Golden Oldie fonts. I used the fallout fonts I got from this site, and all the speech is in Digital Stripe a comicish font.
 
Hey, two Russian websites have featured this comic!

http://wasteland.ag.ru/gallery/waterchip.shtml
They even translated this into Russian!

That's so awesome! Escpecially considering I am Russian, so being featured on a Russian site makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! I can almost read the comments too. I can even make some of them out.

Ok as promised. Chapter 7 is all done. Lots of action, lots of speech bubbles, and some gunshots. CHECK IT OUT.

Seem like exist few similar comic fonts around, already i use "comic book" fonts which could be download from here for free.

Probably you will need one thing in future: program which could capture screenshoot from movies (pressing F12 seem not work there because give black screens) I think i seen such stuff before, but i must check it again. TeamX have best progs, so it could be there. You may use it at begining to shown vault corridor or dead city with tv for book cover.
 
I must say, that out of the post-apoc comics, yours is very original, because, it's... Fallout! :P Good job so far, can't wait to see the next installments.
 
Very nice work with this comic. It's entertaining and I greatly enjoy it!

Be sure to make comic 7 link to comic 8 though. Currently at the bottom left of comic 7 there is no link to the next comic. 8 links back to 7 though.
 
Haha so I was just running through the Skim Pit battle again and I have to tell you about how funny it is. First I talked to Tyco and got him to join. Then i talked some shit to the thug and he attacked me. He critically missed and shot the bartender "aggroing" all the bar patrons. Then the woman with the knife critically missed twice, crippled her arm and dropped the knife. Dogmeat attack and crippled both his front legs. Ian shot the bartender on accident, and Trish (killing her). Then I finally swung and critically missed, skipping my next turn. Then Tyco shot-criticalled and killed Ian. The bartender shot the thug with the gun and killed him. Tyco shot the last thug and killed him. The baretender shot tyco but hit me instead, then tyco shot the baretender and hit me instead and I died.

Funniest fight I have ever had.
