AFAIK it gives a +20 boost to Sneak. It has its own energy consumption bar, kinda like the Geiger Counter.

I think its worth noting that modern guns are mostly polymer and plastic, and in a oil scarcity scenario, making your guns out of things whose main materials are oil-based, is not a good idea. Then again, there are non-oil based ones, but I suspect these would go to more important things, like...

Hell yeah, now that's some quality Enclaving alright! I like the way you think. Imagine the Commander at Navarro telling his last remaining mad scientists to "go nuts" and unleash every single insane toxin, bio-warfare agent, cyborg, robot or monster they have or can cook up in time. Suddenly...

You know, the whole jump from "NCR has no idea about the Enclave" to "NCR hunts anyone even remotely connected to the Enclav e like they are nazis" is actually a question worth exploring. Why is the NCR so afraid of the Enclave? Also, pretty sure a scientist in Navarro talks about "other...

I know its restrictive, but honestly we never a main series Fallout game where the protagonist is a member of the Brotherhood of Steel. Not someone who joined up I mean, someone who was born there. Game would need a strong and consistent "Brotherhood" atmosphere, where the player really feels...

Re: On Big Guns I like the idea of the Guns skill and gating Big Guns behind Strength. An Explosives skill mixing use of explosives as weapons and the old use of Traps is interesting, a combat skill with an active non-combat use. That would make it very unique. Seems like worthy trade-offs. I...

Some ideas for mutant animals: Mutant Bees: Bees are such interesting creatures. I'm surprised they haven't been given more love. I like the idea of bee creatures which attack as one large swarm. And that's the big challenge: The individual bee is not very big or powerful, but there are lots of...

Fascinating, thank you, burn! Definitively going to use this for my next playthrough of Fallout 2.

I think NCR/Shady Sands in Fo2 is kinda weak, looking back at it. Its the capital of the most developed nation of the Wasteland, its said to be a big city, and it looks smaller than Vault City. There just aren't many quests, and the map design is just bad. It really doesn't feel like what should...

Personally, I think the big issue is that most Fallout games are really light on Big Guns and Energy Weapons in general. FO1 and FO2 are devoid of energy weapons and big guns until the mid game. I understand it might be a design approach, because by that point you have already liked maxed out...

Personally I'm not a big fan of Fallout 3 writing in general. Feels stilted, and often nonsensical. Haven't played for over a decade, but I remember having a pretty bad opinion. Indeed. Its just too much "Egoist, mean Outcasts" vs "Noble good aligned Lyons' BOS" to me. Also the whole reason...

First off, @Jogre this is a fantastic post. I have even saved it for reference when I revamp the brotherhood in my own mod. I feel like opinion I make about it would pale. I shall try. I have been playing the original Fallout with Et Tu recently and I agree with you. The Brotherhood as...

- Dark-skinned, be it black or amerindian ancestry. Both are good too. Mixed race is best race. - Beautiful curly hair, black like the night. Idk why, its what I think its the most beautiful. Never found the appeal in blond or red-heads. I mean, straight hair is all fine and dandy (especially...

I will send you some through my mediafire when I get the time. Fallout: The Haunted Bike. I thought that was partly intentional? Partly to save work and partly so that party members stick to the weapons they usually in the original game - so no Cassidy with Turbo Plasmas or something silly...

Funny, I am doing a similar premise (well, me and a guy) over at another forum, except its not the main villain (yet, its more like something in the "background"). My take on it is that the vegetal intelligence is a rising "god", a "god-in-waiting" akin to the Master - as in, its a...

Hey Lexx bro, I got the bike and noticed a few bugs: 1. That bike is haunted and once you get it, it follows you no matter what, as long as it has fuel. 2. Even if you have more people than it can take. 3. I finished a caravan route from Hub to Junktown, left Junktown and there it was again...

Possible? Yeah that's the kind of thing I was thinking. Fighting mutant strongholds, and holding the mutant armies back. Perhaps have radios play a part here, and being able to use them to intercept mutant transmissions and know where the attack is going to be. The more transmissions, the...

I like the concept of the Mutant Invasion myself, but I can see why they took all but the Necropolis invasion out: It really doesn't play well with player agency. The player can't do anything against the Mutant Invasion, aside from actively attacking Mariposa and the Cathedral. For one thing...

Its bizarre how Chris acted like an immense push-over here. He should have lawyered up. Yeah no. Normal rape victims don't scream on twitter that they were raped. They call the cops, lawyer up and invoke you to court. Anyway, I can no longer see any famous person being denounced as a rapist...

This is a cool idea, and I am all for making sneak more useful.
