In the normal version of FO2, Cassidy can use pistols, but not SMGs and neither can Vic, which means neither can use the big pistols. I hope this sticks to it. The B-Team Mod looked good until I realised that it let any NPC use any gun, which was rather cheesy.

That's already an option. Install the B-Team Mod from the Restoration Pack installer. However, the B-team mod is far from perfect. It lets any NPC use any weapon, screwing with the balance, and it replaces the NPC skins with generic armoured guys Changing conversation lines is a fair bit of...

Yeah, but that would break compatibility with other mods and the great thing about this mod is you can run it with others. As for the CAWS change, you'd have to swap it with an uncommon mid-game weapon really, and the only other choices seem to be the Needler and the Sawnoff. The problem with...

@Glovz I know enemies will pick up "dropped" weapons, including even thrown weapons that hit them. However I've never seen enemies looting bodies. I'd suggest a simpler way of reducing some of these. Set the merchant's AI to "abject coward". Currently they will charge in with their club then...

There should have been. Look at the RP and you'll notice that EPA has a +1 agility increase as a reward for one of the quests. ...and a bunch of the mobsters in New Reno. I don't think the base Raiders carry them actually. You said before on how the Grease Gun fitted in with New Reno's theme...

A reduction of the weapon prices would help. Save making the usual round trip to different doctors and trading spare guns for his entire stock of chems just to keep the weight down. As for the armor piercing on the Mauser, it doesn't matter for the sniper tactic anyway. You load a Magnum with...

Yeah, I'll agree on the "replica weapons" thing like for the Tommy Gun. As for the power, I figured it'd have to rank under a 10mm pistol because of the smaller bullets. But then, the P90 does way more than the 10mm off the same ammo. If you've already made the changes, fine. It just seemed to...

That'd be a big change. I figured the Mauser was just an Easter Egg, a nod to its appearance on Gizmo in the original Fallout rather than a "real" weapon. I only mentioned it there as a bit of a joke. :) It's an antique gun, using older, smaller, less advanced bullets than any other...

There's also the Mauser, AKA the Puny Pistol of Pathetic Pointlessness (TM) :P. What with it being low damage, found next to a .44 Magnum, and only having about 30 poor quality rounds available throughout the entire game. Pity they didn't put it in the Rat Caves instead of the 10mm Pistol...

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Slayer The description is fixed in the unofficial patch, or maybe just FO2. Slayer actually upgrades ALL HtH hits to crits. so More Crits is useless. *Better* Crits, however, is very useful with it :)

Abandonment of 50s sci-fi? O.o Go have a look at the concept art and screenies. That says 50s sci fi to me. Heck, it got linked of www.boingboing.net (not a gaming blog at all) as a great example of retro-futuristic 50s styling. Like I said, I'm not going for the hype from either camp here...

The Savatore reward scales depending on Mason and Salvatore's respect for you. Minimum reward is $50 and a Laser Pistol. You probably just didn't notice it, especially if you already had a loaded Laser Pistol. @Killap. Unrelated question. Did you use the Enviro Armor models from Fallout...

Hieronymos: If you want to play FO2 how it should have been if they'd spend a bit more time testing it, F2RP and Weapons Redone. That way every weapons skill is finally useful, most of the big bugs are fixed, and a bunch of plot holes are closed. For a lot of new content in the original, and...

Nice work with that by the looks of things, and thanks for running with the single shot mode for big guns. I've been playing a Big Guns char to test out the new Bozar, but even if you can carry another Big Gun, you end up taking a Small Gun or Energy Weapon instead so you you didn't waste ammo...

Sure I don't want a discussion. That's why I'll admit I'm wrong on the P&P RPG base for the original, and bother to address stuff directly, rather than just shouting down "OMG OBLIVION WITH GUNS TEH SUXORS". As for wanting to prove bias, I'll own up to that. I don't like the attitude of "I;m a...

Oh, yes. I find that putting in one thing I know will act as flamebait to a classic fanboy but not someone looking for a genuine discussion helps me pick them out. If he'd bothered to discuss any of the other points I made, or discuss it reasonably he'd have passed. Besides, I stand by that...

Hey, there's a slight bug with the Trigger Activated Dynamite. If you "use" it, it spawns another copy each time you click. Only the first one you drop will actually detonate though, the rest just disappear.

Why not? If it makes a good game, it makes a good game. So long as you get the choices, the consequences, the humour and the complexity that made fallout a good game, it's fallout. Combat in Fallout was so bugged anyway (AP ammo, bad AI, explosive induced crashes) that it's the plot and...

@feeltherads. Wow, fanboi fishing is easy. I KNEW if it put that in there it'd get quoted and flamed. :P Thing is, you can't tell until you've got sales figures and history for both. If Oblivion's still attracting modders to develop it after 10 years, it's just as enduring a game as FO2. I...

Oh, really? Neat. I've only ever seen it in San Francisco. Either way, it's not got a night sight, but it is rather more powerful than the standard FN FAL, and it also fires a 20 round burst (the whole clip)
