Fallout Series - Megathread

[Murkling]

I don't like the idea of Fallout Online. A couple months after its release when the playerbase begins to grow large, it will ruin the feeling of the world having been torn apart by nuclear war. What little remained of the world's broken population scattered across the world and formed small pockets of civilization, desperately yet fruitlessly trying to grow. The drastically shortened life expectancy due to the many dangers of the nuclear wasteland kept the population sparse and isolated.

Then you throw in a million player characters. Suddenly it seems like Disney opened up a post-apocalyptic theme park.
It'd ruin the desperate solitude of wandering the wasteland.

The only fix for this is if they somehow made the game take place across the whole of America, a potentially memory-draining feat calling for a massive game world of 3,794,101 square miles.

Dont forget about servers.
Im sure there will be more than one.

What part of Post-Post Apocolypic do you not understand. The world is improving people are remodernising and governsments rising. The best example would be the NCR starting from 1 small farming community, into a alliance of several towns, then into a small territory, and then a small super power with most of the Territory of California, Washington, and Seattle. If you don't like the concept of change then stick with the first fallout, or that copy-cat called Fallout 3 and just rant about how you don't like turnbased gameplay, or you could play Rage. However this doesn't mean I will be for the MMO, it will probably be generic and bring nothing new to the table.

Get the stick out of your ass.

You have no idea how stupid you sound. You tell him to get used to change, or get out, but you then criticize Fallout 3 for being different.

Sorry, but that stick is a Tree.

[Man 2]

Sorry, but that stick is a Tree.

That sounds horribly painful.

[Harm94]

That sounds horribly painful.

Yes, but that is not the subject of the topic. So order to keep the train from going of the tracks. I would like to bring attention to Fallout Online 2238. It is a mod for Fallout 2. Currently in development and has gone from a Multiplayer game on Faction warfare to a changing game that offers slighty more than its Russian counter part. So far the Devs have added a few quests, added crafting system(removing cool-downs next update), and roleplaying. So far there are to modes of combat Real Time(still glitchy and laggy) and Turnbased. If a player who has turnbased and runs into a group with real time. Who ever attacks first is engaged in that form of gameplay until the other guy dies. The game is harsh so if you die then you are dumped somewhere naked(wasteland is harsh afterall).

Don';t loving bitch about this you loving classic cigarette.

The tree thing grew between fallout 1 and 2.
It made perfect sense for it to grow and overtake him in Fallout 3.

He traveled across the damn US on foot, that takes a lot of time, allowing the tree to grow for a lot of time.

[Murkling]

Harm is making me angry :(

[Domidore66]

Does this mean Harold is coming back as a Sequoia in Fallout 4?

[Scream.]

Poor harold

:(

Assumeing the tree minders manage to keep him watered then yes.

[Eeposs]

classic cigarette.

Bethesda did not make fallout. they bought it.

The final boss Colonel Autumn was the most disappointing. One frag grenade and boom. He and his body gaurds were dead. I was expecting some sort of long battle like the one against Frank Hoorigan.
