    What did you NOT like about FO 1 & 2?

    I've just busted into FO2 (yep, that's why I disappeared)...I have to say that I don't like the Temple of Trials or any of the "primitive" scenarios. If I want a character poking critters with spears, I'd play Diablo. When I play FO, I want Road Warrior, not D&D. Jay

    Various FO1 Questions

    It has only happened to me in V15 (with the hunting rifle) and the basement of the Maltese Falcon (with knives thrown by Decker) *that I know of*. It is possible that I have missed a lot of things, because I have always looked at the screen for the item to highlight when the cursor moves over...

    Various FO1 Questions

    Bingo! And I figured out why I couldn't find it before, I wasn't watching the scrolling text... I found the rifle, but I can't pick it up, and I can't see it on the screen. For some reason, it does not highlight when the cursor goes over it. The only reason I know the cursor is pointing...

    What would Fallout mean for your home town ?

    The radioactive particles of matter (dirt, buildings, people, etc) that are vaporized by the explosion and carried into the air on the thermal wave. They get caught by prevailing winds and carried for miles before settling back to earth. Jay

    What’s the most disgusting thing you’ve ever eaten?

    Gotta put my vote in for kim-chee...I've eaten a lot of strange things, but kim-chee was the worst taste of the lot, and it lingers for days... Jay

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    I have been trying to trigger the "Billy" quest every since I saw your mention of it in your guide. Went in with a high speech & INT, tried all the conversation options, no luck... Once I get out of my first conversation with him, all I get is floating script. Jay

    Fallout: A Post-Nuclear Movie

    Something worthwile could probably be done with picking up the Vault Dweller's story after he is exiled from the Vault at the end of FO1... Jay

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    *SPOILER* No scorpions, you have a random encounter with a guy standing in front of a shed with a "Bob's Used Cars" sign and several rusted-out vehicles scattered around. The guy is nuts, tries to sell you a car. Pick the door on the shed, there is a crate in the upper right hand corner that...

    How Old are you (revisited)

    Keep my beard a 1/4 inch all the time...have not shaved since I got out of the army, just mow it every two weeks. Now that Kotario just HAD to do the research, I guess I'm stuck with being a boomer... Thanks a bunch... :(

    For the Baptists, that would be best... Hickory flavor would go better with JW's, though... Jay

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    All I have found on the kids at Shady Sands were rocks and a BB gun (but not the cool LE one). Certainly no energy weapons. The best weapon I found in the whole town was a hunting rifle (carried by Seth). Jay

    What would Fallout mean for your home town ?

    Not much in my area worth bombing back in the 50's, unless cow pastures and pig barns were high on the target list. With prevailing weather patterns, though, we would suck up a lot of fallout from oil field strikes in Texas and Oklahoma. I would be a definate "ghoul" candidate... Jay

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    I'm an old RPG'er, found myself having schedule problems for table games. A few years back, a buddy told me about Diablo, said it was like "D&D Solitaire". I got ahold of the original Diablo, wasn't too impressed, but it took the edge off my gaming jones. My buddy said "Get the new one, much...

    FO1: Putting armor on Ian/Tycho

    For the Cathedral I really like the "sneak in & arm the nuke" method. My worst problem with dogmeat is the Military Base. I tried to pen him between forcefields, but when I go down to the next level, he still gets off the elevator with me. Jay
