First - forget about FALLOUT, Tactics is not Fallout no matter how many weird explanations the one comes up with! FOT has good art, good story and hard as hell to beat missions - what it doesn't have is anything that resembles the Fallout universe! Weapons are wrong, story is wrong, god damn items don't work the same (damn stimpacks no longer loose HP!!!). But it's still a good game - just make it something different!

When Black Isle put out "Ice Wind Dale" they didn't try and call it "Baldur's Gate. Split Faction" - nobody quiestioned the artwork being the same or combat system identical! Why not make a "Blank.Tactics", some other name!!! No BrotherHood of Steal, but something else - that's what progress is all about, coming up with new things! FOT's BOS is like Jar Jar Bings in the Star Wars prequel - it sucks, it ain't it and wtf were they thinking???

Argh!

Stuka!
 
FO1 and FO2 - all your weapons are more "Phantasy like" - 10MM pistol, SMG (looks like MP5K but not), Assualt rifle - all the weapons that are retro futuristic style things. FO2 tried to implement something that was very close to FN-P90 and something closer to real weapons.
FOT "rusts" weapons of our world (and a bunch of them :)) - and that doesn't fit into the Universe! How can you explain California living in Retro Futuristic Style and Chicago living in the world we all know? Cars in FO anc FOT do not match, items work differently... Same with weapons - they are of two different universes...

I like FOT weapons better - I would also like the TACTICS game not called Fallout anymore...

Stuka!
 
Shurg.

Like the Final Fantasy games then FF tactics...

It tried. And it wasn't to bad at first.

I noticed a pattern in games now.

X-wing, Tie fighter, Xwing vs Tiefighter

Xcom Xcom 2, Xcom A,

Fo, fo 2 FOT

first two are fun to play, thrid one...well they change it and well it sucks at the same time...it's fun because it is in the spirit in the first two...

Mech warrior, Mech warrior 2, Mechwarrior mercs....
 
I liked very much Mechwarior Mercenaries.

I am wondering however how in the heck did AK-47's get so prolific in America???????

I do not mind so much that the weapons are more from the real world now although I would prefer them to be more like the ones in the first Fallout games just with more models. My problem really comes when I see weapons that have no place in a give setting.

what was wrong with FFT? Now that was a great game. The music was memorable, the story was interesting, the actual 'tactics' part of it is unparalled. There are so many options in the game that you can replay it over and over just so you can try every different character class. IMHO, only FF1 & FF5(jap) were as good in terms of quality. FF678 sure looked good, but they were just more of the same.

Furthermore, there was JA1 (awesome), JA:DG (same, but customizable), JA2 (the epitome of tactical combat), and JA2:UB (had it's failings, but still worthwhile). So not all 3rd or beyond games do poorly ; )
 
Are you talking about Fallout tactics? Did you even play it? It came out a week ago and you are already talking as it's a thing of the past?

When compared to Fallout 1,2 and JA series - Fallout Tactics blows big time as a Tactics game and nowhere near being RPG. Nobody here cares about sales - JA series are the poorest sales in US but it's the greatest tactical combat game by far! FOT will sell many more copies because it's a sellout game to begin with!

FOT is a good game but it's not worth the hype, it's not worth expection quality of Fallout or JA (it's just average!)

I'm getting sleepy

Stuka!
 
final fantasy tactics ; )

but yah, i played through FO:T and finished it in a couple of days. Got angry at how much time I wasted on it, so I loaded up a previous save, went into the BOS bunker delta and wiped everyone out clean. Satisfied with my own ending to the game I wrapped it back up and returned it
