Duck and Cover

Gunnez akimboes! I would imagine that that is probably not EC canon either. Not generally, no. Good find, however, as that is also one of the few examples where dual-pistols were not shot alternatively in a Western, though it might have been to make the cover a bit more full of "action". ...

If you're not female, just admit that "Gwenfloor" sounds more than a bit fruity.

To explain my reasoning behind Jules Verne a bit more, in using a familiar concept as a stepping point, is to note the work of "Paris in the 20th Century". It takes what would have been a familiar concept to his readers, in this case living in Paris, and adding changes and sociological com...

Then I would say something like "What about the obvious Road Warrior influence?" to point out that it might not be exclusively styled around 50's EC comics, and then Rosh would say "That is just a small stylistic influence and has nothing to do with the setting." Fallout is very...

Rosh wipe that foam off your mouth coz I'm not fazed by your exasperations, save them for other forum users who actually will engage you in a barking session. Maybe it's just my disgust for yet another presumptuous asswipe that has to spend more time arguing than reading in context. First, the deve...

I donno where it would be any more, but to summarize, Rosh was adamantly against the idea of any sort of dual wielding, pistols, smgs, anything, because it "did not fit the fallout setting, plebian child, et nausea." It was apparently soooo unrealistic that it just wouldn't make sense in ...

What you leave out in this is that the game is 9 years old with graphics as outdated as fallout 1 was. And this has relevance to something? I've entertained your UO bullshit for a bit, but the only thing it really proves is that game concepts are often horribly raped when changed from single-player...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultima_online#Overview About UO's subscription figures: Upon release in mid-1997, Ultima Online proved to be very popular, reaching 100,000 paying subscribers within six months of release. Subscriptions grew for several years reaching a peak of some 250,000 paid account...

Rosh wrote: Then why is Fallout uses a lot of Art Deco; to show the artistic hopes of yesteryear's revitalization through art, in ruin. Sorry what?! Is that your own opinion or can you back it up by some statements from the original Fallout development team??? I was questioning the whole sentence. ...

Look there is a tweak and fix for making all that work well. Of course a "tweak" will make it work, in your tweaked-out brain it does work. However, back in the real world, it doesn't. You can't have condensed time work for more than one mobile, you unbelievable retard. You can't have two...

I'm just curious that has there EVER been anything that Rosh would have been wrong on? Or proven wrong? I fairly sure that there is a condition where a perseon denies every other explanation/truth/idea that isn't his/hers own. It doesn't matter what you tell them, it's always just plain simple wron...

Well i will give up the disscussion cause i got nothing to gain from it. It doesnt mather that much to me. In other words, you ran out of tangents because we expect something a bit more logical. But i still stand by the idea that Fallout world and game mechanics would work best in a mmorpg. And the...

Just a question. When did interplay start first talking about fool? Before or after they canceled Van buren? That still won't "prove" that Van Buren was going to "more MMOG gameplay" because of two elements, or anything else you pull from your ass. It would be like saying that U...

Oh comon, nobody in his right mind would take a look at that pic and say: "Oh yes that reminds me of JA2 crafting system." Quit fooling your self. Another lame-ass tangent because you were proven full of shit about the last thing you were proven to be an idiot about, and you keep dragging...

Sorry but JA2 does not ask you to combine 18 robes and other resources to make 1 combat armor. Ah! So multiple items = MMOG, where single items = single-player? Wrong. Sorry, your continued "logic" still makes no sense. And you expect this feeble shit to validate your last six or so pages...

It wasn't to mill up 100 suits of PA so you can make PA MKII. Again take a look at the screenshot dumbass, what are you blind? A skill requirement, and materials requirements. Both of which fit into the existing setting and mechanics already. There is, however, nothing to support making an incessan...

Now take a good look at that picture. It has crafting tree just like uo and wow has, it has skill requirments just like uo and wow have and resource requirments just like uo and wow have. That doesn't mean that it's a MMOG mechanic, nor does it mean that Fallout was going to become more like a MMOG...

only did that to contrast the modern-looking T-shirt and pants' style with 50's trousers and short-sleeve shirts' style. I was mostly remarking upon the amount of..."research" done for these pieces, and found it to be as expected. Minimal, and what is present, dismal. As for disproving th...

Fallout fans dont get upset, 20 fallout fanboys get upset. Unfortunately, Haris, many people have already expressed their ideals about this subject. There are those who understand game and setting design, and there are the mentally sterile that still try to paste their mental ejaculate around. Yet ...

No, I understood, I was just saying that really few of the characters in the game had any 50s influence in their apperance and costuming, outside of the in-game art(Vault Picture, etc.) It's also "as envisioned by a 50's science fiction pulp artist, in styles commonly used in EC Comics". ...
