Fans don't matter So you are complaining that only the press was invited to a press only event? Maybe the complaint is that it shouldn't have been a press only event? So you feel that all decisions made about the publicity of this game need to be checked with the residents of this forum? I am amaze...

You might want to look at J.E. Sawyer's Simple system (which IMHO is too simplified, actually): http://pnp.fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Simple:_Main_Page Since his original site is down, I mirrored it in the wiki as well. I'll mine it for ideas but I think he veered too far from the original, most of the...

After going through the rules the two points I am looking at are the rather baroque aiming penalty for lighting conditions and armour vs damage. The lighting chart can be easily simplified. The armour is another question. Fallout armour has both a flat damage subtraction as well as a percentile dama...

There are a couple of goal for FOPNP. One is to produce some alternate rules that streamline the game a bit for those that want this sort of thing, the second is to introduce new material that would allow using the SPECIAL system in settings other than Fallout, and the third is to try to bring some ...

What you fuckwits dont seem to realize is soldiers dont go running around like cowboys with a mag in the weapon. Too many fuckwits have shot their feet doing that, so the SoP when on base is to have a mag in your pocket or in a strapon pouch (insert strapon puns here) on the weapon itself. Every ti...

There are plenty of TB games out there if you look for them, they just don't sell enough to make an impact on the market. And why is that? Your assumption seems to be that turnbased has a big enough market impact to make the difference between a hit and a flop. Problem is, your argument backing thi...

If there were more TB games TB would sell better. There are plenty of TB games out there if you look for them, they just don't sell enough to make an impact on the market. The latest TB Xcom clone will be out in a few weeks, let's see who well it does. I'm going to buy a copy but will anyone else o...

I'd say the first clue lies in the market. If TB sold well then there would make more TB games. TB games in this modern era fall into two classes: franchise games (Civ, HOMM, etc) or independent/east bloc games (Space Empires IV, Silent Storm, Massive Assault, Laser Squad Nemesis, etc). While all of...

ROFL, yes, because you always get an honest publically stated opinion about a customer demographic from a software developer for a corporation that produces consumer products. This is fun, tell me another story. Oh, and if 4too is old enough to be my father, then he must be on life support and in a ...

What the fuck is wrong with you? I'd say he was pretentious, very narrow minded, incapable of understanding that his opinions were not universal, and is probably about 14 years old (which makes arguing with him pointless). He is typical of the sort of poster you find in isolated, inbred forums for ...

atoga - As far as I know yes on all counts. I even saw a very early version of a Fallout mod but I think it died in the water. There is a Modern Mod pack with modern buildings and weapons (and it may have some sci-fi stuff as well, not sure). As to FO, I saw a FO-based NWN module at NW Vault but in...

Didn't a lot of the Ultima games, hailed as the pinnacle of single player roleplaying games in some circles, have crafting and such? If I am not mistaken, didn't crafting in the early Ultima games inspire crafting in UO and subsequent MMOs? So it looks to me like MMO crafting derived from single pla...

When I was doing research on FO equipment I found that NMA had the absolute worst reference lists for gear of any site on the net. I found little home grown single person fan sites that has better info available. Hell, Gamebanshee has far more complete information than NMA. You'd think that a site t...

The starting locating for the game has to have been the dumbest shit ever, wtf was that and what a waste of time... You mean the tutorial for teaching new players how to play the game?
