    Feargus Urquhart on how Obsidian and Bethesda view Fallout

    "Because sometimes, even when the cheerleader is crap in the sack, it's still fun to chase after her." I laughed. Pretty well written. A couple of awkward turns of phrase, but it was a good read.

    Nikola Tesla in Fallout?

    check your pm. He (may have) created an earthquake once, which has some plot possibilities for sure. http://www.excludedmiddle.com/earthquake.htm Absolute best quote from that document: "He put his little vibrator in his coat-pocket and went out to hunt a half-erected steel building."

    Plot-holes and logical inconsistencies of FO3?

    @ little lamplight I thought it was obvious. The enclave couldn't actually consist ONLY of adults, they have to keep the kids somewhere. Why not just leave them totally unsupervised in a hole in the ground? With super mutants. It's like Survivor, only stupider. This would explain how the...

    I Need Your Help, Personally, Quickly, and Desperately

    It's not really long enough to justify going off net for. The basic problem was that recruiters at the time were under heavy pressure to make targets. There was a lot of song and dance about what any given MOS would actually entail, but much of it was out of date or simply wrong. No one that...

    Bethesda going to be as mindful as Obsidian with Fallout 4?

    For the record, I loved fallout 3 even though a lot of it was ridiculous (video game...standard), since I had no preconceived notion of what the fallout universe 'should' be like. I'm late to the fallout party. That said, having played NV and FO2 since then, I can understand some of the QQ...

    I Need Your Help, Personally, Quickly, and Desperately

    This. My experience with mental health professionals actually helped me quite bit, and should probably get at least partial credit for saving both my life and my marriage. Sometimes people just need a reality check and someone to break shit down for them. Better a clinician than a bunch of...

    Falklands

    Damn. That's a hell of a boat. I mean ship, ship. If it's designed for saturation defense, drones are probably of minimal value. In that case...um...sharks with lasers? On the drones, I'd think that having experienced pilots and mechanics, even in a law enforcement capacity, is a lot of...

    Fallout Texas (TDG's take)

    I like this idea. One thing I have to question is: Why would the legion allow a captured slave to keep something as valuable as a functioning pip boy? Even if they're unaware of it's full capabilities, they'd realize it was worth taking. If there's some sort of locking mechanism, they'd just...

    Games You're Looking Forward To

    I know it's already been out forever, but I'm quite looking forward to playing Torchlight. I downloaded it right before all my stuff went into storage last may. Want. Console. Back.

    Are charities that effective?

    2 years mandatory peace corps service for all able bodies at age 20 would straighten a lot of that out. It's too easy to be ignorant and get away with it; Ignorant of the conditions outside our techno-loot bubbles, and ignorant of people trying to address the issues. Shove everybody's...

    Falklands

    Drones. linkie If they're already training drone pilots for paramilitary law enforcement, shifting over to military use is a cinch.

    Bethesda going to be as mindful as Obsidian with Fallout 4?

    Electrical flatulence will only be in the DLC. It won't be canon. Also, psychic mecha is a blatant contradiction. Shadowrun told me so, and Shadowrun is always correct. That said, to answer the OP's question: No. They're going to attempt maxmize profits, like any mainstream developer...

    I Need Your Help, Personally, Quickly, and Desperately

    With all due respect, this was not my experience, nor was it the experience of the vast majority of the enlisted personnel that I discussed the situation with while I was in. EDIT: On further reflection, this experience may simply be less common for recruits interested in infantry MOS's...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    It was funny, I'll give it that, although the parts that make me laugh are probably not intended to be amusing. (lolwut @ tina turners wardrobe, for a start, and where the fuck did all those pigs come from?) It's too bad Mel turned out to be batshit, he was fun to watch. EDIT: Also, anybody...
