    Why, god,why

    You know, I don't know if everyone else shares this same point of view as I do, but if they would actually put some effort and thought into the game, even if it is for the console, that it's an action game, and that isn't targeted towards the hardcore Fallout fans, I wouldn't mind. Just as long...

    United Kingdom VS U.S.

    Supposedly the games can't have any blood. For example, in C&C when you run over soldiers, they leave grey little grease stains. Sorta ridiculous if you ask me.

    Favorite minigun in Fallout 2

    I agree with syko... The Vindicator was the shit.

    Gun control

    Gwydion, you also seem to ignore the fact that other countries that have banned handguns have a much lower murder rate than we do in the US. Explain to me, how is burglar going to hold up a gas station if he doesn't have a gun? With a knife? Granted it has happened before, but compared to...

    Empire, Imperialism and other geo-political naughtiness

    Thank god that whole gun rant is over with. It was pretty obvious that Welsh answered it when concerning dictators correctly (IMO) with his first responce. Looks like Gwydion really loves his guns... *pictures Gwydion in bed coddling his Magnum and cooing to its muzzle how much he loves it...

    Empire, Imperialism and other geo-political naughtiness

    Quick question, but is it hand guns that you guys oppose or all firearms in general. I definitely don't mind rifles and the like but handguns really only bring more harm than they do good. As for guns and dictatorships, it really doesn't matter whether they're legal or not. If the people do...

    Unique weapons

    Umm... I meant in real life... and the glass bottles with the little metal tops... not the plastic ones. Just to be clear. :wink: The main advantages of bottlecaps are that they are small, light, finite, and difficult to counterfeit because of the technology needed to process and...

    Playing Fallout 1/2 using Tactics Engine

    About modifying Fallout Tactics What might be a stupid question, but I was wondering if it was possible to mod Fallout Tactics in a way that you could recreate Fallout 1 & 2 on it. To be more specific, to actually emulate the first two Fallouts: rpg elements, conversation paths, Maps and...

    Unique weapons

    "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I personally like the bottlecaps. The whole concept of trading caps goes well with the 50's theme since nowadays it's a rarity to find soda bottles anyways. The barter system would be cool in certain areas that don't believe in currency however.

    Yeah, I read that right after I posted it. Oh well, guess I'll have to eat my own words...

    Empire, Imperialism and other geo-political naughtiness

    Actually, I think Sander is trying to describe something akin to the monarchs and families of old who used their political cunning to sow discord among their enemies and come out themselves smelling like roses. But in a day and age when we even know who the president gets a blowjob from, we...

    Sweet. Thanks for the pic.

    Empire, Imperialism and other geo-political naughtiness

    As I said before, these leadership virtues are impossible in a dictatorship. How can the people be politically free if they really can't have a say in who their leader is going to be and when it is time that he should step down. All leaders, no matter how great, will eventually make a blunder...

    Granted, he did make his vision clear in Mein Kampf, but I'm pretty sure the German people didn't expect he would take it to the extreme that was WWII. The fact is that the Versailles Treaty was, in hindsight, a terrible and unfair burden on the german people. Add to the fact that the French...

    That funny little fellow

    This isn't about pipboy, but would I be able to find that retro TV busy signal that you see in the first Fallout load screen in the \data\art\skilldex folder also? I have an Asus motherboard with the mylogo program and I always thought that that screen would look cool when I load my PC.

    tactics?

    I have to agree with Blade Runner. Fallout: Tactics is a darn good game. I'm a big, squad-based game buff and have played all the JA, X-Com, and Commandos game and I have to say that Fallout Tactics is way up there with those great titles. I don't know why the majority of the forum is so...

    Wisconsin is absolutely the best!

    However, there really isn't any better form of government, nor will there probably ever be any form of government in the future that will be better than Democracy. Any totalitarian form of government, for example, would be a terrible form of government in this day and age, no matter who the...

    "The French are a bunch of surrender monkeys!"

    The stats for Spain aren't exactly correct either. Off the top of my head I can think of one war, the Spanish-American/Cuban War of Independance, which they didn't win. Also, a good book that I would recommend about Nazi Geramany and World War II in general is "The Ride and Fall of the Third...
