mvBarracuda said:If this turns out to be a success they might receive a cease and desist letter anyway. You can hardly label this as a mod! It's a hack that lets you play Fallout online. Therefore it can be seen as a new game and if they use SPECIAL for it the license owner (not sure if it's Interplay or Bethesda) can shut them down. I guess Interplay is not really interested in another Fallout online game while they're working on their interpretation of FO:OL
They can shut them down regardless of if it is a mod or not if they can prove before court that the existence of this mod damages the value of property of Interplay. Which might well be the case.
