    Moments: Becoming A Wasteland Warrior In Fallout 3

    I get what this guy's saying. But it seems unworthy of front page NMA. I was freaked out the first time I saw a super mutant... And then I gunned him down with the Chinese assault rifle sans-VATS... Ok, not so scary any more. Coming out of the vault being stolen from FO 1? I will echo the...

    Voice acting in RPGs may be more trouble than it's worth

    What I'm getting from this is 'Voice overs are hard, lets not do them.' I have a lot of problems with this. I'll agree that the main character in an RPG that is meant to represent 'you' should not have a voice. I'd take it a step further and say that any character whom you take the reigns...

    Contamination Europe: a PAARPG

    I almost agree. I like the idea that it is a while after the bombs fell so things are making a comeback. But I will continue to criticize setting games about a post apocalyptic wasteland in places that were already wastelands before the war. For any sort of North American themed game, the...

    Contamination Europe: a PAARPG

    There's always a first. But I wouldn't complain if post apocalyptic RPGs become a trend rather than first person shooters about war in the middle east. Considering how many Fallout games failed to capture the fallout feel by not quite getting it right. I imagine it's pretty hard to make a...

    Contamination Europe: a PAARPG

    Sounds to me like a bunch of people who didn't like the way Fallout 3 and NV were handled decided to do something about it, other than complain on forums. While I'm sure they are heavily inspired by fallout, fallout's setting wasn't exactly original. Hulking green nuclear mutants, giant...

    Diablo III proves old-school Fallout can do well today

    I personally don't care what view it's in as much as I care about the feel of the game. Story, aesthetic, fallouttyness. Isometric did not make it a fallout game. The ability to hit rats and children in the balls with a sledgehammer made it a fallout game. Fallout 2 did something that few...

    I want to hear ideas for new factions/organizations

    It's not too much to ask in this day and age of video games. We need to demand more content in games, otherwise it's just going to remain a race for better graphics.

    Play As Yourself Challenge - With Realism

    I'll see what I can do if I have time. I'm running on a pS3 right now, so I can't play with the mods yet. But I really want to get a decent computer before long. Especially now that I've seen everything that's available for NV. If anybody finds that mod though, post it here, please. I...

    Improvements on combat/companions/skills in the next game

    I definitely remember having Myron contribute in fights. He seemed to favor that needler even when I gave him something I thought was better. He'd pick one of the ground and start using it. But that could just as easily have been a bug as the fact that at some points in the game, all my...

    Improvements on combat/companions/skills in the next game

    The companions need combat improvements no matter what system they use. I would definitely like to see some companions you can take really early on who, if your character isn't combat oriented at all, can effectively hold their ground and yours. Just as a device to get you through areas...

    I want to hear ideas for new factions/organizations

    Maybe a break away faction from the followers. Same general idea, independence, helping others to help themselves. But not as passive. Social anarchists fighting to ensure no form of government ever takes hold in the wastes again. If this is in the future of NV, then maybe they were associated...

    Play As Yourself Challenge - With Realism

    Is there a mod that would let you fine tune your stats? I mean, I'm perceptive visually and able to connect seemingly unrelated dots to form a picture in a variety of situations. That doesn't mean I'm as good at everything an above average ranking in Perception grants me. Or a trained...

    Your Favourite Fallout game?

    Fallout 2: First one I played, I was able to dive into the story which helped to build up the legend of Fallout 1. I enjoyed how massive the world was and the variety of weapons. It truly was sandbox. From the start, if I wanted to, I could go down to Redding, sign on as a caravan guard, get...

    Anyway to turn in snowglobes after killing Jane?

    Yeah, thankfully the the 125+ rocket toys are weightless. The Ghouls at the test site only take five. The only other way to get rid of them seems to be to give them to the Boomer children. Not sure if handing them toys filled with radio-active chemicals is going cause any ill effects in the...

    PipBoy make and do?!

    If you're still working on it, I'm working out a design for one myself. I'm using 3" ABS pipe as the largest section of the wrist. You might be able to use a combination of ABS and PVC pipe/couplers to get the approximate shape. I'll probably cut it down the middle and use nylon strap as a...
