Yay, ain't that cool. And because of that our export trade sucks big time.

But anyways - if you can make that Nuka-Cola decent enough, bottle it and send it over here, I'll buy it... Not much, of course, but propably fair enough.

I believe they were talking about my giant tank avatar. You're fine, I'm sure

How do you plan to distribute this drink within this community, let alone this world? Just curious, don't take offense please.

(1) What's going to be in the Nuka Cola? Is it just a slightly altered Cola recipe or what?

(2) How the hell are you going to advertise / package this thing?

I've been thinking about what it should actually taste like ever since I came up with the idea, I'm thinking generally it should just be another cola product, I have been able to get a hold of the coca-cola formula and I was thinking a slight variation of that would be ok, or I could just buy off the shelf cola mix, but that isn't really too..well... good. That's why I want to dabble in diffrent variations and send them to people to test, so I can get vital feedback to make it a drink that all can enjoy, and at a price I think is reasonable. I'm going to look around and see how much it would be to make.. say... 100 bottles of the stuff (8 oz a bottle) and come up with a final cost, so you can tell me what you think a fair price is per bottle/6 pack/case/whatever. Distrabution can be easy, if I just get someone in (insert continent name here) that I can ship stuff in bulk too, and then have them ship it to people around that area. Packaging is another easy process. After the final mixture is made (soda syurp and soda water) you put that into a bottle, cap it, and bam. soda. Then just put a label on the side and sell it. Advertisement may be a bit more tricky, and rely on word of mouth more than ad campaigns. If this thing gets big, I might just have to get a website made and soforth, but for now, it's just a cure to my boredom. =)

It would be really cool to just have a nuka-cola bottle with all those printed labels and stuff. I'd buy an empty one for decorational purposes if you will have some of those for sale

Remember the description in the original Fallout games? Warm and flat...

Are you aiming to make the drink like it was experienced in the Fallout world after or before the War?

Before I would hope. If it were warm and flat, I would have no interest in actually drinking it. Still having a bottle would be cool of course. Nuka, you should try making maybe a stronger cola flavor than the popular brands, or maybe something a little less sweet like afri-cola. Just try and make it unique.

What happend to the arabian Cola? It was supposed to arrive here like last year.

I have to go away on biznezz, so I'm afraid I won't be here to answer your questions for about 1-2 weeks, sorry.

I wouldn't have thought they'd have labels on the bottles, just the words printed on the glass.

I think you could make a good Nuka Cola with:
Carbonated Water, Ink (Blue), Cocaine

Can you dig it?

Nuka-Cola was clearly a brown cola, it just looks slightly blue because of the bottle. I say he takes the Coca-Cola recipe back to its roots with plenty of Coca leaves and Kola fruits. Now thereÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s a drink that will put a bounce in your step.

Blue ink looks black though. I imagine taking a swig of nuka cola and having your mouth turn blue would be SPOOKY!

When your currency is strong, it's good for import, because the same amount of money is worth more and therefore can be used to purchase a larger quantity of units. But this is what's gonna hit us big time, because when you just buy buy buy and don't sell sell sell at all, you're doomed.
