Oddball_E8

First time out of the vault
1: fallout 2 weapons balance mod:
simple really, just re-balancing the damgage of the fallout 3 weapons to fit in with the damage of fallout2 (ie. the damage range, not the actual values)

2: fallout 2 weapon sounds mod:
this is even more simple... just using the sounds from fallout 2 for the appropriate weapons in fallout 3... i personally think this would be a great mod... i just dont know how to extract the sounds from FO2
 
There's a weapon balance mod, and a mod that has better weapon sounds. But neither of them, except maybe the balance mod based on principle, adhere strictly to Fallout 2
 
Until we figure out how to change the accuracy of a single weapon and reduce the cheat in vats, the first mod will pretty much be overkill for the game.

the second mod I would support, but I don't know how to extract the sounds and some of them would not fit.
 
The real problem here is that odds are weapons are done the way they were in Oblivion. That is to say, they won't do a damage roll, they simply do a flat number based on skill, condition, and enemy damage resistance. It might be possible to script but personally I think it would be a messy prospect. You might be able to rebalance relative power of weapons to be more in line with the original games but I don't think you can really bring back the old systems.

But I'd love to be proved wrong.

Thats what this game needs. I hate the laser weapons, the orginales were so much better, I wanted to shoot the plasma in 3D, but...
 
actually, i kinda like the lasers... they look very 50's to me... havent seen the plasma yet...
 
My gripe is that the laser weapons availble in DC look like homemade ones and i hope I do not need to explain that anymore, given that it should be basically impossible to do that.
 
it'd be great to have new energy weapons as it feels they're really limited, a more homebuilt laser pistol for example and the proper ones u find in downtown dc

The old ones kicked ass because they were massive. The new ones are too modern like in Fallout Tactics.

And yet, there is no Bozar :(
