    What's with Advanced Power Armor MKII in Fo3?

    People who praise the inanities of Fallout 3 without provocation bring the level of this forum "waaaay" down *with added a's for effect*. Personally, the design of FoT powered armor (as I prefer to think only of "T-51b" as "power armor") is far superior to the tactically useless and...

    The Real Ending! (joke)

    Bethshit would never post something as original and awesome into one of their crappy games.

    Shouldn't there be kids within the Enclave?

    I think the fact that you miss children in the Enclave Oil Rig is simply because the PC does not get the chance to travel to civilian locations in the Rig itself. Large armored soldiers, military technicians and scientists, a barracks location with all sorts of dangerous materials, and you...

    Questions about FEV in Fallout 3

    Perhaps the "Behemoth" is an Oblivionized term for "Super Duper Mutant" that was found in the covered remains of Mariposa? Therefore, the "Behemoth" is indeed a Super Mutant exposed for a longer time to the FEV. What I want to know is who or what exactly is the brains behind the Super...

    Enclave in FO3

    The new Enclave power armor looked like ass, a mix between Fallout: Tactics (which I loved, but only as a completely new BoS design, which the Enclave would obviously never adopt) armor, and glass armor from Oblivion. It's a fail. Also, doesn't the Enclave have a lasting area of control in...

    Nuclear paranoia non-existent in Fallout's world?

    In the early fifties before the horrors of nuclear radiation were known the people of America romanticized the notion of nuclear armaments. They would consider them to be adorable little tools in which to spread peace. The "Atomic Cocktail", "Atomic Cafe", the many songs with a nuclear theme and...

    The Ford Nucleon, Inspiration for the Chryslus Corvega? I stumbled across this a few days ago and have been wondering ever since, could the Ford Nucleon the inspiration behind the nuclear powered vehicles from the Fallout series? Here's the article from the website "Damn Interesting"...

    Is The Earth Growing?

    That is what happens at the mid-Atlantic trench in the middle of the Atlantic ocean, hot, light rock forces it's way through the trench and cools to form denser, larger rock, forcing the trench to get wider every year. It's a problem for when the rock gets subducted back into the mantle at the...

    Interesting, so you could take two applicable pistols in your inventory and combine them to make a dual set without any outside sources (like a gun broker or smith)?

    Riot shield

    I'm sure you recognized that my point was that dual wielded weapons were not popular in the entertainment industry until surprisingly recently. Sure, a Jew sixty years ago used dual wielding weapons, I'm sure some cowboy did too, but does that mean that they got a lot of exposure in movies or...

    Nuclear WAR - like... right now?

    Looks like a rather decent doohickey. There's also the tried, tested and true Victoreen Civil Defense series of civilian Geiger counters, or even the Russian "RadEx" *smirks* pocket dosimeters that are flooding foreign markets. Can you give me some specs for the RadAlert Inspectors or link me to...

    DARPA Announces Nanotube Anti-radiation Pill

    My biology teacher told me years ago that with twenty-five thousand fire-detectors one could use the radiated particles inside to build a "nuclear waste bomb". Then again, he was a crackpot and stated that by now we should all have died from the Avian flu. Nasty stuff.

    Riot shield

    Sure you could, but I'm sure you'd agree that there is a discrepancy between something as subtle as a pair of sunglasses and a large, one handed shield that would literally cover most of the body's forward position. To stem this much from reality just for a measly AC or damage modifier I think...

    5/10. It's a simple symbol, and thus, generic, so it gets a generic rating.

    Riot shield

    Although dual pistols are cute, they are from a different age, specifically 1990+ action movies. Dual pistols has a very unfallouty feel whenever I think of it, and all that comes to mind is Samuel L. Jackson, Bruce Willis and Jason Statham, in that order. Consider Mel Gibson's triumphant Mad...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    Battlefield 1942. With the BattleGroup 1942 mod version 1.35. Among the best WWII games of all time, considering its versatility. It reminds me of Fallout in that respect.

    I don't see how it could fit the universe, and would simply be more popular tripe like FN FALs and H&K CAWS floating all over the wasteland.

    Nuclear WAR - like... right now?

    I'd go north, after taking the necessary precautions (SuAside's list is impressive, and reminds me of the precautions outlined in the Zombie Survival Guide :wink: ). I would go and collect my girlfriend (if she was alive) so I'd have something to screw up north in the frigid Haliburton...
