Fallout Online is online!
 

Can a mod please ban this obvious spammer.

Heretics.

In a post-apocalyptic world, lulz are enhanced by the immediate death of the troll.

Is there a way to perma ban Oerdin for that comment? http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif

It's not. The site was temporarily down due to huge number of visitors.

Now it's ok.

Whats fallout anyway? You must be sh!tting me, right? It is the best CRPG ever created.

Second best. Planescape: Torment is the best CRPG ever.

PS:T is the second best. Fallout forever!!!

"It was not possible to connect to the server"

Probably too many users. I'll try later.

I tried that now... can't connect. If most players are Euroasian, then now is their prime playing time. Perhaps I should try during work http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/wink.gif

I did manage to connect yesterday... but the game crashed while I was still inside the building you "materialize" in.

Btw, have you seen the intro?

I remind you it's purely fan-made non-commercial project.

How big is the MMORPG map? The entire F2 world or only a portion, or different locations entirely? Entire F2 world with major locations a bit modified.

Is combat turn based? Not exactly. It's not possible to have TB combat with so many players involved. The combat is sorta real-time like in Fallout Tactics.

What is the status of the project with regards to legality? Absolutely legal.

If the images and sprites from F2 are copyrighted, then can this game use them legally? Yep. It's non-commercial project. The authors don't make any proffit at all. Basically, in terms of legality it is just a MOD for the original Fallout-2 game which allows multiplayer.
Mods are legal.

Tried to play a bit today. Disconnects me often. Where in the PIP boy is the radio?

I love this gamehttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif




What a battle.

It's not a soundtrack. It's a fan-made video made by one of the local "nazis" (Enclave, the ****ers who stormed the Broken Hills to eliminate the so-called "mutants" (anyone who isn't Enclave). Their attack have been repelled.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif Enclave are stiniking nazis of the 23rd century, so no wonder he chose that music for his video.

And how do you imagine a turned based combat with so many combantants involved? Such battle would last a month in TB mode.

It uses the same combat system as in Fallout Tactics (for actions you use action points that regenerate over time). SPECIAL still works fine that way. Though you can switch to complete TB mode when you are fighting vs. NPC you encounter on the global map.

FTW? WTF is FTW?http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

Enclave was a bunch of crazy nazis. The local Enclave maintain the tradition of genocide. They are completely sick bastards.

I have no idea. Must be very boring.
Anyhow, there are only a few players in a Civ game (and it's a strategy game when you need some time to think your next move anyway) and there are hundreds of players in Fallout Online (and it's RPG, not a strategy game).

Would you love to wait for your next turn (that would take only a few seconds of your time) for several hours, while you have completely nothing to think about? You don't have to calculate industrial output of your city X or cultural impact of the city Y - you just need to pull the ****ing trigger to kill that son of a b!tch who is standing against you.

I am a hardcore TB fan, but the way how they did it there... I don't use TB mode anymore in the game, even when I have the possibility to do so.
