I played through last time as pure unarmed on very hard. Totally doable and deeply entertaining.

Lazlo - I'd definately be interested in doing some helping out here, but I am an intermittent worker. Would it be possible to simply PM you some quests should I think of anything worthwhile? And regarding starter quests - does everyone spawn in the same place when they die or is there a good...

It's perfectly possible to play a sneak/melee char on the hardest difficulty levels. That's what I did last time. Sneak 100 is ridiculous. If you don't move, you're effectively invisible - you may get detected but not into danger. I recall trying to take out my first deathclaw - he would walk...

Just want to say killap, I'm grateful for what's already been done and I can't wait for what's coming! :)

That sounds cool! :) Thanks for your sprite editor and tips, by the way, it's been invaluable to me.

Well, if you dl his sprite editor it becomes pretty obvious. However, you'll find that you'd have to modify at least every player character model, and those sprites are pretty hefty in size, making the mod a bit large... To give you an idea, my mod stands at around 26MB - half of which is...

Looking cool - but lets see a trailer of what the mod is like currently! And show us some more gameplay and less trailer. ;)

Why not seriously ramp up the realism? Ditch the negative numbers and vastly increase the ranges?

I've been playtesting further, and there's a few niggles for me - A) the insane ACs means sentry mode and overwatch are very strange. The game thinks that 0% chance to hit actually is 0% chance to hit and doesn't fire when it could. B) shotgun ammo in the 100s? I know it fires 25 "shells"...

I've got to say, post apocalyptic permadeath just gives me (good) shivers. What's better than PA? Scary PA where your character feels in danger when he's in the wastes/jungle... I played Ironman FO with a friend once, and I haven't really had anything in any other RPG that really matches...

I agree with you on most levels, but for me it's just too odd an anomaly to bring into the game. I don't want to have warn players to not shoot people at point blank, and I feel it spoils the immersion - I might consider this for a heavy machine gun/autocannon firing "explosive" rounds, that...

Wow! Quick work - makes a change for this forum. :P Let me test this and I'd be very interested in including this feature as part of my mod projects. Thanks for the upload and great concept. :) I look forward to seeing yours too, Gunner. Any release date yet for the mod? Screens look...

I hadn't heard that, but luckily I've actually got 3 installs of Tactics between 2 computers and another on an external hard drive. That could be seriously annoying if one had to reinstall and repatch though... >.<

Am I crazy, or does running the Awaken uninstall actually delete the vanilla BOS.exe? I don't know who to facepalm, but that's a bit of a faux pas whether it's my fault or theirs... :crazy:

http://members.fortunecity.com/onthebounce/fot/ammotable.htm Just to check - do these figures work? How does penetration work? Also, some weapons have a "default ammo variant" - does this mean all damage from this weapon takes on the properties? Thanks again, guys. :)
