    Redux mod totally messes up video playback?

    So I decided to delve into Tactics as part of a sweeping replay/playthrough of the series, and I decided to try out that Redux mod. So I installed it on the GOG version, and starting it up it stutters to death and video playback is juttery as hell. Anyone know what's up with this? The BOS_HR.exe...

    Would anyone take issue with the Enclave in future games?

    I have been putting thought into a fan-script that I may turn into a full project to some degree. I was curious what peoples' opinions are in regard to the Enclave and if they would be salvageable as a primary antagonist if good writing and reasoning for their return was behind them.

    So as of Fallout 3, ghouls can be made instantly, huh?

    Originally I thought the whole Moira thing was a one-off fluke in an attempt to be funny. Now in Fallout: New Vegas we have it where [spoiler:840008db17]the Legion detonates a radiation bomb and [/spoiler:840008db17]people are turned into ghouls instantly. What the hell?

    We can't stop here...

    [spoiler:e45f0799ce]I felt inspired by New Vegas. Part of me wants to see this concept turned into a mod, but I lack any of the talent or drive needed for that beyond potential design oversight. I hope someone enjoys it.[/spoiler:e45f0799ce] I stood looking at the old man, his face trembling as...

    Could Fallout survive an urban transition?

    What do you guys think? Can Fallout survive going beyond post-apocalyptica, or would it turn into a train wreck? Or are they just going to artificially stretch the next 200 years of game canon into people still rising out of rubble?

    So... many... references... (spoiler warning)

    I just found this while exploring the desert. http://i.imgur.com/kFa6B.jpg It looks like just another broken down car, right? A random heap put into the environment for decoration? Well, not exactly... [spoiler:f199b88a51]It's actually its own location. The Wrecked Highwayman. In its trunk...

    To anyone still doubting if New Vegas can make up for F3...

    Look at the following: http://i.imgur.com/Jo8q7.jpg Edit: I apologize for the lazy nature of this opening post. I was trying to be swift and to the point. As others mentioned it below, I really enjoy the characterization in New Vegas. There is a radio station in the game that has had be...

    So I just had Fallout: New Vegas spoiled for me...

    Don't expect anything interesting or well-written. The end follows Fallout 3. I'm not going to post it, but I'm relaying a warning to stay away from popular forums or image boards. If you really want details, message me.

    My Psychotic Rambling.

    Okay. I've watched hours of Fallout: New Vegas. So let me mention things I've noticed. 1. Same animation and engine bugs. You can end up shooting an invisible wall. Bodies spin out and ragdoll insanely when killed. You can shove a shotgun up an NPC's nose and not hit them. 2. Possible...

    Should a very smart character have access to stupid dialogue

    Case in point: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyser_S%C3%B6ze (Warning. Spoilers if you haven't seen 'The Usual Suspects'.) Just bringing this up for discussion.

    Warhammer Online leads people into multithousand dollar debt

    Warhammer Online and Dark Age of Camelot have overcharged users, spamming past and present user billing information for amounts up to several thousand dollars. Stacking overdraft fees onto this, the current highest known casualty is greater than $5,000 USD. EA Mythic has come out stating that...

    DRM and You! Thread

    So, Bioshock 2... Steam DRM + SecuROM install limits + Games for Windows LIVE. You are required to pass both Steam and SecuROM checks, and you need to log in to GFWL to be able to even save your game. Also, if you fail any of the checks, Ben Feder and Strauss Zelnick come to your house and...

    Nazis and Dinosaurs

    This has been getting a lot of coverage elsewhere, but I got a chuckle out of the video attached. The Dino D-Day game that is currently a mod and will be hitting Steam as a full game in 2010. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8o00ha17Jic

    Review: City of Ember

    I thought I'd take time to advocate a film which has gotten little love, yet which I found absolutely wonderful. I've decided to post my review here, as it is heavily influenced by Fallout and other post-apocalyptic themes. City of Ember Once in a while, a movie comes along that displays...

    Redesigning the mantle of the Advanced Power Armor?

    I was curious if anyone here with modeling experience would be up to the challenge of maybe adding an actual mantle to the Advanced Power Armor Mark II as seen in Fallout 3 to give it back the heavy duty feeling it had in Fallout 2. Maybe something like this. http://i43.tinypic.com/2n1f2v6.png

    The Commonwealth

    I've been thinking up plot and setting for a mod or semi-expansion (likely will never come to anything due to my own lack of skill on anything past drafting ideas) which would take place within The Commonwealth. I'm in just the first stages of thought, and thought I'd make a topic to keep track...

    Is id's Rage more in the spirit of Fallout than Fallout 3?

    A while back there was some news about id Software, the company behind the Doom, Quake, and Wolfenstein franchises branching out into new territory with a game called Rage, which so far seems like a post-apocalyptic FPS with various nonlinear elements as well as racing content. Now, I'm tossing...

    Throwing, the most hated weapon skill?

    I have noticed there is a serious lack of love for the Throwing skill. I'm not exactly sure why, though. I mean, it is hardly the worst. I fact, in a rush game, I've found that stockpiling plasma grenades makes it so you have very effective crowd control. It's also the one weapon type where you...

    Grim's List Of Needful Things

    Hence in follows is the list of demands that I press upon Bethesda to do with Fallout 3 if they want to preserve the universe and not just use it in a similar manner to the workings of classical nature of Electronic Arts. #1: Do not trivialize atomic devastation. Yes, I'm talking about...
