Speaking of the Mutant mission in St Louis, how the hell do you get inside the base to save Barnaky. I've done it before. I ages ago but I can't remember how and I am playing on toughguy mode so I keep having to start the level over again. Please help me if you have any ideas.

Having tested my theory, with the help of Welsh, I now understand the technological mystery of the PM thingy. Hazaar!

I got into a huge argument with Rosh about this. I liked the game despite the various mistakes that were made. It was not exactly Fallout but it still had a fallouty feel (not the real thing but it tided me over in lieu of Fallout 3 making an appearance)

Err, hello. I just wanted to apologise for the fact that I think some of you may receive multiple messages from me, because I couldn't understand the PM thingy. I know I have used it before but I thought that when it said the messages I wanted to send were in by 'outbox' but not in my...

Gabriel listened to the mysterious mortician talk with the girl. It was curious. The assassin thought he now understood why the mention of her parents had spooked her during his earlier encounter. Her brother had been taken and Gabriel assumed the Rogue’s parents had been taken with him. That...

Yeah, Fallout Tactics messes about with the Deathclaws too much for that particular incarnation to remain relevant to this discussion.

Okay I will rephrase my point and hopefully end this ugly argument, which I admit I think you won. I agree that it was not a great Fallout story, but I also don't think it 'pissed all over it' as you said. The point I have been trying to make but I kept getting sidetracked by trying to...

Oh dear, I have a feeling that comment was directed at me.

OOC: Bloody Hell, I hadn't realised how long it had been since my last IC post. I better make time. IC: Backup’s here and it’s a ragged bunch of slavers and some crazy ghouls. Fantastic, thought Gabriel. Any help was welcome but he would have preferred a detachment of Slayer troops...

Hehe. Insane Rosh (sorry, one must occasionally indulge in childish pleasures, like laughing at Rosh). He does seem to know an unhealthy amount of stuff about the Fallout Universe. He is very, very, very protective of it. Still can't say I'm not impressed with his encyclopeidic knowledge...

Good point. I forgot those big bastards wer genetic creations rather than mutations. They are incredibly likely given a little more research and funding put into genetic engineering.

No, you are perfectly correct. Discussing the realism of a totally unrealistic creature seems a tad stupid. However, details are the heart of a good setting, hence the continual search for knowledge.

Well said, Welsh. Sorry I'm a tad busy at the moment but I will try to post soon.

I just watched the Tactics opening story again, and you are right. The original Brotherhood is presented as much more aggresive than they were in the 1st game. THat is a discrepancy. Still, I will stick to my point that despite the inaccuracies and places where it deviates from the old...

I found the talking Deathclaws a little hard to take at first. The doctor at Vault 13 mentions that they talk like parrots, just mimicing speech they hear (no vocal cords). I think that fact was supposed to suggest that the FEV wasn't the direct casue on their ability to speak, but that it was a...

My point, the one I tried to put forth in my last post, was that I liked the story even though it did not, as you say, exactly fit with the old games. I was exaggerating about the old Brotherhood hating outsiders with a vengeance - I was tryin to understand why you think taking in recruits...

Indeed, I concur with Rogue. Excellent new avatar, Gunslinger.

Okay, I will take your point about the timing of the game - between FAllout 1 and 2. Chasing the master's army does give an indication. I missed that. THe place where we diverge appears to be, that I don't care that the robots looked different and that the cars sounded like gas driven...

Really? The closest of the Indo-European languages, eh. I was not aware of that and I am English. I hail (dear lord, I hope this is the right 'hail', it would be such a pity to use incorrect spelling in a post discussing how great the English language is) from the home of our great and glorious...
