There's No Such Thing as a Cooler RPGFPS!

Morbus

Sonny, I Watched the Vault Bein' Built!
Australian Gameplayer has published a new Fallout 3 preview, with a somewhat silly title: "Fallout 3 - The most Highly Anticipated RPGFPS there is!". Here's our highlight:<blockquote>The game will be using the same engine as Oblivion, though it’s been substantially altered to reflect the game’s focus on mid-ranged combat rather than beating goblins to death with broken twigs. However, the combat isn’t simple first-person combat, despite appearances. The Vault-tec Assisted Targeting System pauses the game in combat, whilst you target certain parts of your enemies’ bodies and they do the same to you. (...)

The greatest foes in the Fallout series were the mutants, the survivors who had been stuck outside the vaults during the world-obliterating war and who weren’t so friendly to their non-deformed brethren. Worse even than them were the super-mutants - enormous lumps of muscle led by an über-super-mutant called the Master. The best way anyone has worked out of killing them is a bodged-up Nuclear Catapult!</blockquote>Link: Fallout 3 - The most Highly Anticipated RPGFPS there is!

Shit man, who is this guy? He doesn't know jack about Fallout. Mutants are survivors?! WTF?! Hasn't he hear of FEV or something? I mean... huh...
 
I predict the heat of the thousand suns to descend upon this thread.

Seriously, "best way"?

I though the best, if funniest, way was to sneak up behind Grundel with the anti-FEV serum.... :roll:

Weren’t Ghouls people who mutated because they did not make it into the vault?

I belive they originated from Vault 12 under Bakersfield when its radiation shielding systems got damaged.

Also, I think I'll add "kangaroo preview" to my thesaurus, just right there next to "kangaroo court". Short, pointless and with absolutely no fucking clue as to what is going on.

It wasn't damaged, it was designed not to seal up properly, thus leaking an amount of radiation, which resulted in the ghouls.

Hey! No spoilers!

Well it seems that our current contestant; Australian Gameplayer is in the lead, anyone wish to add something to that?

When you design your character he will remove his mask to reveal a face curiously similar to your own. You’ll get a book from him, as a child in the vault that sets your primary aptitudes in the game. Then, as you age (rapidly) in the vault you’ll be tested in various ways that set your other attributes. This is most certainly a role-playing game disguised as a first-person shooter.
Well see he almost came to the right conclusion.
 
Is this some kind of twisted joke? Just after mega preview with flowers like "Oblivion 5" we have something like this.
Is there some contest to write the most stupid FO3 preview you can? If there is, this guy's certainly winning.
 
I guess we got a real potential winner here, Australian Gameplayer has managed to piss of or irritate most of the Fallout fans here without any apologist appearing so far but we are still a year from Fall 2008 so its still everyone's game.
Stay tuned.

Is that true? I haven't seen that anywhere else, that would make it turn based wouldn't it?

Plus, I wonder if Ron Perlmans war never changes bit would sound better with an Australian accent, it would be more MadMaxish.
