Duck and Cover

Here's hoping we'll soon have something to focus on other than FO3 (R.I.P.) Seriously, I think Fargo is old enough and wise enough that he will deliver the exactly what the fans want (Bard's Tale notwithstanding). The guy is old school. I played Wasteland on my Commodore 64 for chrissakes. He is not...

That is without a doubt a brotherhood helmet on the corpse. The rest of the outfit looks like garbage samurai. Im more than willing to bet that the brotherhood will make an appearance on this coast as well from this picture. I'm wondering more if we're not going to see the Enclave in the game. Afte...

It seems you do not quite grasp the full extent of your rampant tooliganism, my dear philowar. :drunk: Yes, very vague and so very wise, aren't you? It's real easy to be clever when you toss out some glib, hazy statement without explaining yourself, but then you're such a drunk, insouciant sage, to...

EDIT: Oh yes. Fallout 2 is fun to play. Don't listen to that idiot. The setting is kinda lame and some of the dialouge options are cheesy, but it's still definately worth a playthrough. Yeah, one play-through, whereas FO1 is worth 100. If you're a moron who likes a bastardized, campy, fucked-in-the...

lolz, thanks for clearing that up fellas Fuck is up with the lol shit? Just how old are you anyway? philowar, please dont try to take the moral high ground on the issue of flaming after calling someone a twat and telling them to fuck off (maybe you should have used a PM, laffo) And what exactly wou...

do you even know what this thread is about, mr dumb

If you want to flame, asshole, maybe you should take it to PM.

Do you have any suggestions for me Beware the shitty inferiority that is FO2. Bad writing, stupid plot, idiotic locales. FO1 I have built a shrine to. FO2 is good for going around and blasting everything in sight, being careful to avoid reading any dialogue that pops up on the screen. Oh, and get t...

But they fooled me with that FO3 E3 poster from last year.

SuperH wrote:The music is so road warrior, why do you guys have such a problem with it?

Because Fallout is not Road Warrior. Fallout music is ambient and 1940's. It is not "suspenseful and thrilling Hollywood action movie." How can you not understand this?

From a post-apoc view it's pretty cool art, but it's way too modern looking and doesn't seem like Fallout at all. But between the art they're throwing up and that turgid music, what does?

The new concept art is up over at the FO3 site. Slick, professional, and boring. No real style or coolness at all. What is this? The Day After? The Day After Tomorrow? Could be promo art for any big budget Hollywood end-of-the-world movie I've seen. Man, the guys at Beth really don't get it, do they?

I like Liam Neeson alot. He was good in Batman, Schindler's List, Darkman, and I think he could fit into Fallout perfectly. The dad thing is a little corny. If I don't have the option of killing him right off the bat, its just not a Fallout game. I like Neeson as an actor, but how much further away...

I usualy skipped arroyo as much as I could. It was lame and didnt really adhere to the FO setting in my mind. Hell, I did that with a lot of locations in FO2: Arroyo, Vault City, Broken Hills, etc, etc, etc. But shit, most all of the locations sucked in FO2 (that is, they were not true to the spiri...

The music starts off... well, it kind of fits the setting. It can work as long as the tone isn't that for the rest of the game (lets have some 40s/50s songs please!). Man, I know I'll get flamed for this, but I really don't understand how someone who has little or no understanding of the retro futu...

Two words: Basil Poledouris

This is so depressing.

God forbid Feargus ever gets his shitty hands on another Fallout game. He butchered FO2 enough as it is. What a hack.

I didn't say it did. I said it was OK, as in so-so, then proceeded to say this one will suck.

I don't think it's an absolutle must have for the game, but if the entire feeling of people doing what they do to survive (cynthia from Junktown for example) get the kiddy treatement, then it'll feel so very very shallow. I think it was the over-the-top sex, drugs, and stupid jokes (that and all th...

You also shouldn't expect the lewdness of Fallout 2, as Hines reckons it got "a little too caught up in trying to be funny or controversial or whatever."

My God, Hines actually said something I agree with. There's hope yet.
