Good timing. I just started playing Fallout 2 for the first time recently. Is Killap's Fallout 2 Restoration Patch well-regarded? I sure hope so because I don't think I can remove it without starting over. I've only got to Klamath so if it really sucks let me know before I go farther.

I dunno what you guys are talking about, Fallout 2 is kicking my rear end right now. I'm definitely experiencing that "wow I suck" feeling. I guess its because I'm only at the beginning, but these golden geckos and giant rats are destroying me and eating whole clips of ammo like it's nothing.

I am at a quandary in Fallout 2. I'm still in Klamath and have yet to kill the rat god or rescue that trapper dude. Problem is I am completely out of bullets. I bought out the two shopkeepers I could find and they have none left. Where can I get some more ammo?

In Fallout 2 is there any way to exchange places with your party members or anything? Vic keeps getting me permanently stuck in narrow hallways and small rooms and such.

drat, so I'm stuck again in Fallout 2. I finished all the sidequests I could find in the Den and went off with Sulik and my new, crappy buddy Vic to Vault City (I'm guessing that's my next destination). The trip there is loving brutal though, almost every random encounter destroys me. The guys who carry Hunting Rifles use them to kill my PC in like 2-3 hits. What am I missing, I have some decent guns (me with a magnum and hunting rifle, Sulik with a sharpened spear - I gave him a SMG but he just kept killing Vic - and Vic with a pistol), I just get hit for 18 damage a few times and then that's it. My armor is a pretty nice leather jacket that I found somewhere.

So in Fallout 2, I just pretty much finished off Vault City and Gecko and got the car from the Den. Where do I go next? I got the location of Vault 15 from the vault computer, I have a couple breadcrumb quests to NCR and New Reno, and also have Broken Hills and Redding on my map.

Do you end up having to go to Redding for the story too or is that just to explore because its there? I really don't want to accidentally trigger some end quest or something. Also, holy poo poo, I just accidentally discovered that this game has music. I'd been playing in silence this whole time. I figured it was a design choice but nope just had to change a couple lines in my cfg and bam glorious old crpg music. Lets Fuck Bro fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Aug 16, 2011 |

I was just playing Fallout 2 and I moused over a npc and instead of saying "You see a townsperson" like it always does it said "You see a male biped of the species homosapien." Awesome.

I'm loving this game but Fallout 2 is so bad for the hoarder in me. I have to loot every chest, locker and corpse of anything valuable or useful. I've been able to stop picking up every gun I see, but I'm sure I have at least ten thousand rounds of various ammo locked up in my trunk. Seriously though - just completed Vault 13, I'm on my way to the military base with my super group of Sulik, Cassidy, and Marcus (gently caress vic, kept getting in my way) and this is easily one of the best games I've ever played. I started the Fallout series with Fallout 3 and after I got past the initial clunkiness this was so different and so much better. Even playing it for the first time in 2011 I can see how magnificent this game is. Lets Fuck Bro fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Aug 24, 2011 |

In Fallout 2, I'm at a pretty high level, and I don't know what to do with my skill points. I've got tagged Small Guns and untagged Energy Weapons both at 100%, but it seems I can go higher than 100% if I want, at an increased skill point cost. Do I get significant returns for raising skills past 100% or should I figure out something else to dump points in? If I should raise it, about where does it stop being worthwhile to raise? (I have a lot of skillpoints saved up)

If you have the Sniper perk and 10 Luck (not sure how that happened actually, started the game with 8) do I even need to use aimed shots anymore? Hopefully not because I just spent all my skill points pumping Small Guns and Energy to 125.

I feel like if you've already bought a game twice it's morally all right to redownload a pirated version. If you had bought the game on Steam you'd be able to do that after all. The fan patches for this game are some of most comprehensive I've ever seen, this Killap guy has worked on his big restoration patch for like 5 years, itd be a shame to miss out on it.

Well I finally beat Fallout 2, way overleveled by the end (30) but enjoyed every minute of it. Every settlement got a happy ending, except New Reno which got destroyed by rocket launchers (whoops my bad). I'm pretty sure that was one the best games I've ever played. It sure was a treat to play such a classic RPG in 2011, they don't make games like this anymore. Thanks thread. Now on to New Vegas or maybe time to try Fallout 1 again.

Rinkles posted:Killap's patch is all that's really essential, and you'd live even without it. Skip the restoration pack the first time. It doesn't add a whole lot, and there are a few QA oversights (mostly typos, occasional poor English). It's perfectly playable and complete without any mods, so just play it as it was released by the devs (sans some bugs squashed in the Killap patch).

Rinkles posted:Might be an old fashioned nonsensical approach, but I feel the game should be first played without the changes from modders. And yeah the minor little changes that must have taken a ridiculous amount of work, like the NPC armor, are just mindblowing. I dunno if I've ever seen such a level of devotion to a game from a fan community. It's very inspiring in a way. Obsidian needs to hire that Killap guy; I read an interview with Chris Avellone and he basically didn't even know who he was Lets Fuck Bro fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Sep 13, 2011 |
