Since Bethesda decided to make Fallout 3, we figured we might as well have a forum about it.

unarmed weapons should be kept to a minimum. all the new ones in tactics were a bit crap. instead, pugilist characters should just be able to learn new unarmed moves as they level up. there should be plenty of new perks, fighting styles, roundhouse kicks, and whatnot. :salute:

Right, but then you aren't unarmed. You're armed with brass knuckles, powerfists, etc.

"Speaking in tongues"?

Brilliant idea, Frater.

Brilliant.


A Babel-virus that makes it so people can't understand each other.

So you have all these speech minigames to navigate the dialogue trees.


Great Fun!

They still utilize the unarmed skill? Not the brass knuckles skill eh?

Change skill name to pugilism? Pretty gay.

steel-toes boots would be a welcome addition to the leg "arsenal" it would function as the leg equivalent to the spiked kuckles, but obviously a lil stronger since legs - i believe - do more dmg than fists
For now i have none...but i will soon....

All jewish lies!

I would like the possibility to tape and weld (sp?)
pieces of metal and barbed wire etc. onto baseball-bats, hammers and brass knuckles.

I want to play my own story path. I don't want to crawl a dungeon, have something happen, crawl another dungeon, have something else happen, etc. The linear stories in oblivion/morrowind were pretty awful.
The answer to your first question is shaddup.

Here are my list of weapons:


Riot Shield

Could be interesting. It would make gameplay even more diferent. The Riot Shield add to your DR and AC, and it would even bounce some of the bullets from a burst. And then, you could have to use a Pistol, SMG, grenades, knifes and all the lot of one-handed weapons. Of Course, the shield don't is all that mighty. AP bullets could penetrate it. A very powerful shot would thrown your shiedl away. A well-placed melee/unarmed atack could thrown your shield away. A powerful burst could knock your shield. Someone sneaking could shot/hit you from behind, and all the bonues from the shield would be bypassed. And maybe some shields could be easily penetrated by a energy/explosive/flame atack. But the shield would be very good, anyway.


Flamer


No, don't thrown me stones. I KNOW that the flamer exists, of course, but WHO even used a flamer on a serious way? Give the flamer a BIGGER range, like 14 or something, and give it the ability to set things afire and possibly harm people. And make the ammunition a little lighter. You could wield a flamer as a great weapon this way.


Sonic Gun/Rifle

Tipical 50s classic! A Sonic atack could stun, knock and even kill you! Being stunned reduces your chance to hit, AC and even DR, so that means you're more vunerable. The Sonic boom could do some evil damage!!

Blow-dart pipe or gun, 3 types (crude, regular, and ultra-laser-powered).

To knock out guards and momentarily stun opponents so you can run away or get past them using a Diplomatic/Stealth character build. There are way too many megaweapons for the grunts and not enough stuff for the footpads.
