Fallout Bible
Yes, my favorite RPG would have to be Fallout 2. Why you ask? I think its because of the post nuclear apocalyptic setting and how it is handled so well. No faries, no orcs (well, the Super Mutants COULD be considered orc like), and most importnantly, it has guns and technology, a nice change of pace from the swords and magic. Browsing the internet on the wee hours of the morn looking for Sacrifice (the Interplay game) stuff, I came across this handy thing called the Fallout Bible. It seems to be a little old (well over a year), but I thought I would share it for anybody who hasn't seen it yet and is curious about some of the things in the fallout universe, as well as the lesser known secrets. It has a nice timeline too depicting most of the important events leading up to the end of Fallout 2.
Now, I have to reinstall the original Fallout and Fallout 2, and play them all over again.

Yes actually (I haven't myself btw). Apparently the idea is to get him stuck behind a forcefield in the military base so he avoids all the super mutants and their nasty heavy weapons.
Yeah, I got dogmeat with me too. The pains I took to make him survive <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> The super mutants would tear him to shreds with their nasty auto-weapons.
I've never played any of the Fallouts. :(
Well, I did play a demo of FO:Tactics, but it was horrible. I heard many FO fans didn't like it anyway too, so I feel less bad about hating that one, but still...

Infidel!
FO and FO2 would still qualify for some very good entertainment. Im hoping to see RPGs like that again one day.
But You're ok to not like FO:T. It stunk.
Yeah, tatics wasn't my cup of tea either. Here's hoping to a Fallout 3. Speculation and Rumors have been posted, but nothing confirming the game.
Of course, Im always a lame sniper in the game, but hey, I can still take down a super mutant in one shot to the eyes if Im lucky! W00t perception!!

At least you're not a total blasphemer. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
Yes. In fallout 2 you learn that Richard Grey was originally from Vault City (the most evil place in fallout 2 <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> ) and he was banished because he killed somebody. He eventually teamed up with Harold (talk to Harold for most of the story) and found the military base, where he was knocked into a Vat of FEV by a robot.

Anyone see a connection?
The Fallout universe is one DESERVING of a MMORPG. I think it would be perfect (of course, Im bias), just think, you could make weapons, go out and hunt radscorpians with friends, fight an army of super mutants, get "dipped" if you really wanted to, and there would be one car for every 500 people!

I once killed the fallout 1 boss with 1 critical hit from the gatling laser that did the most damage I've ever seen -- I forget how much, but I think it was over 1000. here's to having seksay stats :>

What's more, I'd love to see a decent movie about it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
no, just raise your luck to 10, raise your outdoorsman skill as high as it will go, and then get the explorer, scout, and other triats that help you find those "special" things
never found the grenade, I met King Arthurs nights who were looking for it. I also found the space whale, the "edge of eternity", the Tin Woodsman, The Cafe of Broken Dreams (DOGMEAT!!), the bridge keeper, and the Unwashed Villagers fighting a Spammer.
Can you please post up this patch and/or post a link to it? pretty please? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
The Holy Hand grenade patch is available at the "Files" link in the Fallout 2 section of Duck and Cover's right navigation bar. Official patches and other files available there too. (I personally used a character editor to up my carry weight to 999...I'm a pack rat when it comes to RPGs, and I figured it'd just make things more enjoyable to be able to play as normal instead of taking several trips just to carry my entire inventory from one city to another).
