    Is there a way to view ALL the possible endings in F1 or F2?

    Re: Is there a way to view ALL the possible endings in F1 or There is a time limit on different places, i.e. if you go into the Hub after so many days, you get the "scattered before the mutant army" ending, etc. You can check Per's Guide to get the actual time limits for each spot. The...

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    Cool, now I know how to do those quote pyramids I've read so much about! :wink: But, back to the bodies in the Glow...I went by there with a character the other day and checked, there are at least two that are identified as "vault dweller", a couple of "pesants", but I didn't see any...

    Damaged Armor?

    When I first started FO, the armor repair thing was one of the things I worried about (with my Diablo background). So I used to watch my AC like a hawk, constantly afraid that my neatest new armor would get riddled with bullets or clawed to pieces by a deathclaw or something. Once I figured out...

    a hypothetical fallout universe question

    I agree with what you are saying. From what I understand from the game background, ICBM's don't play a part...I thought it was all still in the 50's mindset of atomic payloads delivered from aircraft (which would mean even less target impacts). Still the east and west coasts would bear the brunt...

    How Old are you (revisited)

    I tripped over the game a couple of months ago, but then I don't play a lot of computer games. I'm an old-time RPG geek, I started playing Diablo II a few years back because a buddy told me "It's kind of like D&D solitaire." and I really liked it. Then the same buddy gave me the FO1 CD and told...

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    Naw, it's not a UFO base, that's Area 51 in Roswell. Twenty-nine Palms is a mofo HUGE military transportation hub and training ground used by all branches of the US military (but primarily the USMC) in California. In strategic importance, it would be a primary target for anyone shooting nukes at...

    a hypothetical fallout universe question

    Chem and Bio weapons obviously played a part, as well. Going by FO1, I don't see how it could have been a massive nuclear exchange...California is a target-rich enviornment, in a massive exchange the "Glow" would be an overlapping feature across the state and not a single spot on the map. Jay

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    Isn't the Glow the same location on the map as the 'real world' Twenty-nine Palms Base?

    Various FO1 Questions

    I did mean that AP ammo glitch. Kinda annoying. I always play with luck from 2-4 because seriously I have never found any actualy use for it. Yea, before I got ahold of Per's Guide, I was shelling out the extra cash for the AP ammo every chance I could, thinking it was "better". Doh...

    Children Patch to Fallout 1?

    There are children running all over the place in Shady Sands, and at least one each in the Hub and Boneyard. Some random encounters include children, too. As far as the Glow, all of the bodies there (except the one in power armor) are piles of ash. I guess one of the smaller piles of ash...

    most newbie-thing done on fallout

    Another thread reminded me of one... FO1- Didn't use the "steal" on NPC's because I didn't want to tick them off...so every time I gave them something to carry I had to buy it back from them (usually with ammo for their weapon of choice). I think that at one time I had Ian packing around...

    Various FO1 Questions

    Never complain about the cranial-ocular shot...art in it's purest form. As far as firearms, the 223 pistol is the best weapon in FO1. When it comes to energy weapons, the turbo-plasma rifle only surpasses the Alien blaster because of the range. I have never ran into an ammo bug in FO1...
