I think the game has some political comentary too, since it comes from latin america: [spoiler:ab8ac624c0] In argentina entire families of political dissidents where "disapeared", i.e. taken to secret prisons and tortured to death. Their children where mostly adopted and raised as wealthy...

A lot of that stuff exists as mods... when I get home I'll post you some links so you can have a fan made version of some of the stuff you want in the meantime. I'm working on my own hunger mod which is really nice, I'll have it released once I get it so that you dont starve in VR simulations...

I had thought about a few options when I planned my Boston mod and I came up with other ways a non vault dude can get one: Wastelander: given to you by the hermit guy who lives in a junkyard and is constantly repairing stuff. He found it on a skeleton long ago. Raider: comes attached to...

Start out as a Tribal, Vault Dweller, Raider or Wasteland Settler. Each origin offers up a couple of unique perks and a different skill balance. More importantly each origin has a different main quest, all of which take you to New Vegas. As a Vault Dweller you are looking for parts for...

Yeah, I know what you are talking about now. That's one of the problems I guess, how to incorporate what is interesting about a setting without breaking the rules of our world. It would be like having a gang of Elvis impersonators when there has never really been much in the way of Rock and...

What's the cliff notes on New Reno and peoples objections with it? I havent played Fallout 2 in like 9 years so I dont remember what issues the place had.

Nice, I never saw that image. I'll do a search when I'm not at work (very limited here). Another couple of things: * Non lethal combat: very rare in games since it is always about killing foes, but I would be glad to knock somebody out and depending on how evil I am either turn them in...

Yeah, I researched that once when I was wondering why they never did it. That is why I refered to it as anti-cannon, but if somebody pulled a jurassic park and put some in the game I wouldent cry over it, especially if you can shoot from horseback.

A whole lot of stuff above has been addressed in mods, so I'll stick to the more hard coded stuff they should do. * Gambling. I always get sucked into gambling in RPG's. * Complex Karma, as is it is too simple. Make it so that you can lose karma while performing good deeds by taking the...

For me it is easy to guess that some gambling and crime will be involved, although I dont necesarily recomend bringing back the gambling skill, maybe a Perk would be nice though. You know, something that helps you a tiny bit outside of gambling but is great when you sit down at a card or...

My g.f. is not very patient when it comes to just watching me play, so I've been doing my gaming in 30 minute sessions before getting ready for work. I just passed the boat sequence and went back into the crazy folk forrest. I'm still really enjoying it, but does anyone know how far into the...

Ok, what I can say is that it makes one hell of a first impression, and in a day or two most people should be able to tell you how it is overall. But I'm still loving it.

That's the beauty of Half Life 2, sometimes the path gets wide and sometimes it gets narrow but it is only one path, therefore they can really control the experience and make sure it is cool. Making things wide open and random is cool too but it does not lead to "emergent gaming" so much as...

Yeah, there was a talk elsewhere on the forum if the fallout series has too many firearms. Like personally I would prefer small weapons (rifle, pistol) paired with rocks, bows, machetes, axes, crossbows and stuff like that. Now the philosophy that I think 2 & 3 took was "well there is a variety...

I agree with that, at the rate you currently level I think every stat would be 100 by level 30. I'm using a re-balance mod though so my stats are now lower than what the designers intended.

Some really masochistic part of me * wants to play tactics again. Maybe this will be my excuse. * It is the part of me who loves games where you control an entire party, customizing and leveling each individual player. In those games I tend to download mods or cheat so that I can get rid...

Fallout 3 has kept pretty much parallel with the weapons in 2, if anything it has less variety. I'm glad to see that ending wiped away though... originally when they started out they said the game was going to have a ton of endings which made me think "wow, mini epilogue for every action"...

Same here, I've played the free week that most games offer and never ended up buying a month because In a week I feel like I'm done killing different colored versions of the same monster again and again. Heck, I'm a huge superhero fan and even City of Heroes (which is quite excellent and...

Has anyone used one of these patches with Gametap? That is the version of Fallout 2 that I'm playing right now and I would not mind adding a few luxuries to it.

Personally I never have but I know for sure that you can shoot 'em down, I've read a lot of strategies on taking 'em out but personally I cant be bothered, I'm not the type of guy who carries heavy weapons.
