Fallout 2 1/2 by Dolo is not being made, if you missed the news a while ago.

You might want to check with Dolo before crossing it off your list. I think he is still working on it regardless of what was said in that post.

I figure that it is dead though, after looking at his website his last update about his campaign was Feb 18.......

:idea:

Hey Flamescreen, if you've got the time, you could always link the titles of the campaigns to their respective websites, you know.

Provided the author of the campaign has the ability to make one, of course...

Hey, nice idea! How come didn't I think of that?

I will have that fixed shortly.
Fixed. Ask and you shall receive.

No, that's not true. If you checked Dolo's news he got back again to his project, immediatelly after he's withdrawal. Updates don't mean anything if one doesn't have a firm denouncement of the project by creators. You should check my GSI relative thread to further see what are my comments on that.
To tell the truth if he didn't deny it, but I knew first hand he droped I would still keep it, just in order to keep things flowing and hopes up.

Guess I'll file myself under "Supragenius" then.

GJ, Flamescreen. This'll make a good basis for a "Links" section when the time comes.

Hey guys I just noticed that some of you are talking about Fallout 2.5 so to set the record straight, I have been mapping out the thread to the campaign this whole time. It will be in the oven over the summer and if all goes well I will have a test map released soon so you can see the style for single player.

I have heard word from Chris Avallone that there will not be source code (just *because*), so there will be no conversation or bi-directional speech in the campaign.

I've been playing a lot of Dungeon Siege and Arcanum lately to sort of get a feel for the two extremes of 'rpg'. I wouldn't really call DS an rpg but Arcanum is one of the nicest RPG's I've seen in a while.

This is going to take a while to get done, and that's okay. I'm having a blast making up characters and stuff. You might also have tried my fallout tactics speech editor at dteam, which I have greatly improved and modified for my campaign. The new speech editor handles much more than the old one at Dteam, so it's making the descision tree process much easier.

To make a long story short, I was upset before by the reaction from certain community members to my campaign, so that really put me off from doing one. I have not killed the project -- I'm just so damn afraid to release a substandard product, so I am going to spend more time on it than I would have originally.

I'm sure you all understand and I look forward to giving you something that will soak up a few hours of your time -- for fun.

Well, I was wrong.... but at least this means that another map/campaign will be coming out.

Thanks for verifying me Dolo. Good to see you in New DAC.

Hey good to be here. Let me know if you need any help with php or mysql. Did you guys split from GSN?

Max-Violence · Post by **Max-Violence** » Sun Apr 21, 2002 6:28 am

Yep, they did.

Long story short: Those with power got PO'd when Killian (now Killzig) posted info about Fallout Fantasy, so Killian/zig was booted from DaC. And since, in Kreegle's words, Killian is "indispensable", DaC said hasta la vista to everything GSI.

Anyway, when you say "there will no conversational or bidirectional speech", do you mean answering yes/no/maybe to NPCs and the like? If that's the case, why not? It is entirely possible, as shown in Endocore's "What is Honour Amongst Thugs?" and "Quagmire" maps, as well as my Jailbreak Part 1 map, all available from (the old) DaC and NMA.

In a nutshell, the technique (that Endocore thought up) involves using "clones" of the NPC that pop up when needed.

Or do you know all this, and you don't like it?

Well, anyway, it's a damn good thing to hear yet another FOT SP campaign is in the works. Good luck with it! :mrgreen:

I wouldn't mind reading a story about what exactly happened to push DAC off the Gamespy Network.

I think I'm going to side with GSN on this one. It's not that GSN hosted sites have to walk on eggshells over everything, it's just that the tone of DAC has been increasingly antagonistic and vile. GSN is a business and has a corporate culture. It seems that they just got tired of yet another angry post from the drunken dwarves over at DAC. Good for GSN!

But I can remember when DAC wasn't like that. Perhaps it was during a time when Killian was getting laid? Zzzzing!! I can remember a day when DAC was actually a fun place to visit. I just hope that the new DAC will go back to those days and try to have fun instead of bust people's bubbles. C'mon guys... games are supposed to be fun.

Like when I had cancelled Fallout 2.5 I got applause from DAC.

http://www.forumplanet.com/RPGPlanet/fa ... tid=542713

Fuck that man... that's a shitty thing to do. Most likely what got the negative karma going to make DAC on GSN's hit list. This is much like the stuff Avallone is going insane over. I'm for one tired of hearing flak from the fallout/BIS community about BIS. Games are supposed to be fun and the developers have every right to make whatever kind of game they want. Let's face it, Interplay is in trouble (have been for some time) and they need product that sells big volumes. PS2 is the only market that will help Interplay get out of the rut it's in.

If you guys want games that are true to the root rpg, I have been having a lot of fun with Arcanum (by Troika ... many of the guys who made Fallout), and although it's not post nuclear hollocaust stuff, I can really get the same feel that I got from Fallout when I first played it (not Fallout2).

Anyway, all this animosity between the fallout community nazzis and BIS is really why I've been dragging my ass on Fallout 2.5... like I feel that I might as well have fun with it because it's only going to be ripped on when I release it, right?

As for Fallout 2.5... there are a few yes/no/maybe things by using the ol' IF IT'S IN THE INVENTORY gag. Basically, you can bring an item to an actor and it will answer a question he has based on the item you bring.

I've worked with clones and I must say it makes sense to use them when you want them to react differently, or perhaps have different items/rewards/skills. You can have a lot of fun with it.

Anyway I just hope that DAC's quality level improves. If DAC wants to bash interplay or BIS, could they at least balance it out with some positive good fun posts about other game houses?
