... science-skill ring any bells?

I know a math skill'd be a tad unnecessary. And its not like its important....
I just well, you know...
would like to see it.
And, another thing I'd like to see is a transvestite prostitite named susan.

Stick with your groin ointments.

But I am not one of the groin people!!!!

Mismatch, IIRC, to pass the VC citizenship test, you need something like 10 intelligence and perception.

Don't you need some charisma too? For the sixth toe, or something?

[Kashluk]

Nah.

But I think you can pass it with 10 luck, although it requires a very unlikely luck roll.

[Spazmo]

No? Just don't get the sixth toe in the first place. You just need to have the rubber boots in your inventory.

[Mismatch]

it really should be called eleventh toe...

Forum regular <b>brillo</b> let me know that <b>Fallout 3</b> is covered in the November issue of <a href="http://www.pcgamer.com/">PC Gamer (US)</a>. He kindly typed up the relevant section for us.<blockquote><i>While Bethesda is still evaluating different designs and features, Fallout 3 will undoubtedly introduce some changes to the series. Executive Producer Todd Howard wouldn’t confirm whether the franchise’s traditional isometric view and turn-based combat will be abandoned, but he did point out that the strategy spin-off Fallout Tactics retained those elements and still didn’t resonate with series fans. In Howard’s view: “There was so much more to Fallout than the angle you viewed it at, or how combat was resolved. You need to look at what Fallout did for RPG’s when it came out in 1997, and create a game that has the same effect for the next generation.�

Howard thinks the vital, mandatory elements that define Fallout games are “the overall tone and character choices. You could play Fallout in many different ways with different results. And the first game did a brilliant job of putting you in a harsh, unknown wasteland that was full of people who [hoped] humanity would survive. At it’s core, it’s a survival game.� That’s already a fitting characterization for Fallout 3 given that it’s survived considerable adversity and now the follow-up’s back in experienced RPG-making hands.</i></blockquote>I don't read this article as saying "<i>there will be no turn based combat or isometric viewpoint</i>", unlike the <b>GameInformer</b> one, but I do think, if this really is <b>Todd Howard</b>'s view, he needs to take another look at the series. It was the <i>combination</i> of the viewpoint, the combat, the characters, the setting, and the roleplaying system and opportunities (amongst others) that helped make <b>Fallout</b> a cult classic. At least he mentions the fans of the franchise and how we reacted to <b>Fallout: Tactics</b>.

Thanks again, <b>brillo</b>.

Fallout: Tactics didn't "resonate well" with fans because it wasen't Fallout.

Attack of the babelfish-translated poster?

[S4ur0n27]

I'd say babelfish is of an higher quality.

[Mr. Teatime]

"a higher quality", you mean.

[Kashluk]

Susan uses the French-English translator.

[S4ur0n27]

and you use the Finnish-English one. Your point is?

[Spazmo]

The point is that you're both shit.
