...as the other fallout thread was closed: http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/index.ph...;#entry10312450 lol, Fallout 3 with Oblivion-like dialogue tree...

...this is quite silly

I think that looking at the best examples of any implementation gives you an idea of the upper potential of a concept. We all know that any idea in the history of the world is going to be terrible if it isn't executed well. But that doesn't give us an idea of how good it could be. Looking at the best examples of any concept tells us more about its potential and/or its limitations. Take first-person melee. I think it's fundamentally problematic because even the best examples of it (Oblivion, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic) still have a lot of control issues. Some people accept the control trade-off because they enjoy the more immersive experience. But I don't think anyone is going to use Trespasser or DTUM as a starting point for talking about first-person anything because it isn't really indicative of the potential of the concept; they're just fundamentally flawed. psst! that's the cursed word!

true

'Make love not war!' would have a totally other meaning.... *shrug*

totally original: and the new 'gag':

eh?

You scored as a Balder Odin 70% Balder 70% Thor 60% Freyr 50% Frigg 50% Tyr 50% Skadi 40% Njord 40% Loki 40% Bragi 40% Heimdall 40% Freya 30% Hel 20% Sif 0%

I suggest we should look at the list of recently registered members then. You think we find a 'Judge Sand' or a 'Sandes'?

I mean mainly the original developers! You do realize that of all the people that worked on Fallout, not very many are working at Obsidian. As far as I know, the only one who is is Feargus. Among those not working at Obsidian are the lead designer, lead programmer and lead artist. wow! you forgot about Sawyer, Monahan, Chris Avellone, Chris Jones and the others?? also don't forget that when Troika died some from there joined Obsidian too (like Chris) EDIT: ah forget Chris, he left the sinking ship in time

yeah, but i guess I overdid that one with the lights EDIT: ahh... the original is that in Gorth's sig, but i guess you talk about the one on the top of this page, right?

ah, btw Gorth (and anyone who is interested) i have a new version ready of that too: i think this style looks nicer then the one i used before EDIT: and here is a totally new one, had inspiration for it

I mean mainly the original developers! Gorth's sig = truth

k, as majority here and at home likes it, i start to make different configurations for the map (alliance/nation/race/technology level/trade/pirate activity/the most important galactic systems with name/ age of stars showing ones) EDIT: uhh, what kind of color/style you say it could have? i thought about something a bit transparent and neon-like

What is no suprise, knowing what kind of avatar you asked for PS: you better save it now on your own PC and maybe at the Obsid archieves, because i had to format my hard disk thus the original is not aviable anymore in the case something happens and you would need it

Go Bethesda!

Isn't it a record of the amount of registered users simultaneously online? it is and 'activeness' count was trippled by the fallout fans in only 2 days

It looked like an appropriate teaser. Though some people are complaining about tiny details, the overall style, mood, and atmosphere are solid. It would have been nice to have some more solid info, but I wasn't really expecting to get any of that at this stage. I think the teaser shows the 'cannon' of Tactics is included This should be the way anyway, do you also agree? PS: also how are the talks going on? any results on some future....games there?

what we know of it: DC is walkable there are guys in power armor (noone said they are BoS guys just because they wear the armors) you can find a working radio in a buswreck

Hungarian 'War of Independence' http://software.filefront.com/1848_Informa...nformation.html

teaser is out and already downloadable in a lot of places ...just slow

exactly I always say 'There are no adults, only old kids'

more of them are adults, and having kids themelves, instead of being kids (other than in heart i mean) the majority of hardcores is there now, and they aren't really kiddos

and now the oblivion fans came to the counter-thread to say 'its not because the fallouters that the records were broken'....riiight
