General Discussions / Re: Organized Groups Playing in Family

« on: September 24, 2014, 03:48:52 AM »

Why don't you make your own "organized group"? Just become one, who the heck cares if some "other-cool-awesome-mega-experienced team of 146% pure pros" plays against you?

We do try to organise, and often succeed in small missions and tasks, it is just when it comes to ZC the biggest numbers I have seen us pull was 15 on a really good day, and only half of that number know what they should be doing in ZC, so it is usually an unorganised madhouse.

Then we lose and the blame games start which divides our numbers further and puts us down on loot,

I know the wasteland is supposed to be harsh, but dayum, it's like genocide when we try to compete for territory.

You shoulda seen the minigun slaughter fields of PV polymer.

They're nice early game roaming around with others and providing light suppressive fire on groups of enemies.  I rather liked the greasegun early on.

There are a few upstart groups in Family, but not any large organization from what I've seen. Family tends to be a lot of solo players who are willing to band together if needed.  I've interacted with and know most people active in the Family faction. It's a small group, but we're all friendly.

Don't retaliate to those games as "Fallout".

Not trying to derail the thread, but I felt NV was a very good tribute to the older series.

You don't even have to rely on fallout lore necessarily to create improvised energy weapons that sound plausible. Hell, even electrifying a nightstick would a cool addition.  The possibilities are only limited by imagination.

However, I doubt that they can handle the pace of Lawyers and V-Tec, which are almost always ready to engage anyone.

While I agree slightly, tests with noobs have proven differently.  Its common to get 7-8 guys together in robes and AK-47s to go kill vtec groups. They tend to be very very disorganized unless there is ZC going on.  Family is growing stronger, and it wont be long before the core is a full blown warzone (more than it already is.)

Suggestions / Big Energy Weapons

« on: September 22, 2014, 11:14:55 PM »

Recently I wanted to make another EW build, as my first failed miserably, and then I realized my options were kind of limited.  for anything other than torsospam or sniping, it seemed like the Gatling laser was my only option for BG-type Energy Weapons.  What I propose is the possible addition of things like plasma throwers, electricity weapons ( e.g. a giant electric arc throwing welder powered by an industrial capacitor or something)
and others. There is a lot of really cool possibilities, and I would be willing to do art for the implementation.

Could just change the name to Crack?   Dunno about REAL drugs in the FO universe, but I'd like me some crack.

Well if any of you want to use this purple currently, just copy this file to your aop folder. (You can backup the original NameColorizing.txt file)

P.S. MARXMAN, I really haven't done anything more then changing couple of numbers in txt file heh....

Well yeah, but you put time into it, which is worth money.  And being the code/script pleb I am, I couldn't figure out colorizing for the life of me.  So thanks.

There's no truce, trust me lawyers were fighting Vtec just yesterday, this truce is BS.

can add more confirmation.   

Lawyers and Vtecs were AT IT last night.

Not to be the doomsday crier...but.......

"hey guys, Lets make it EVEN EASIER to shoot people across the map.  Yeah, snipers are definitely UP" 


Snipers have 0 issues hitting targets across the entire zone atm. It really doesn't need changing.

This has the potential to be terrifyingly bad for smaller factions.   I'm sure all of the Vtecs and Lawyers want this.  Family simply doesn't have enough players to participate in such a thing.

Controlled zone looks so gay on the map, otherwise cool.


(Maybe bit lighter because chat name is too dark)

"Looking Gay" is subjective.   I rather like the shade of purple posted above. 

If not that I'd vote 

#800080 purple

I think a kamikaze like function would be cool. Something like loading yourself with grenades/dynamite and running into a group of enemies and going down in a huuge explosion.

V-Tec swarms with explosives attached?? I dont like it

*Fiddles with timebombs, sets to 5 minutes*



Here ya go, friendly bluesuit, hold onto this.  We'll need you when the time comes.

Make a gecko farming vid, or I claim shenanigans.  And don't edit the fucken thing, I want real time.

or tell me what magical part of world map spawns 40 geckos in 15 minutes.

Im with Faopcurious, I would love to see this.   I've gone encounter farming with a few people, and maybe 1 in 10 had a few geckos, and not always golden.

How the average Family ZC looks like:

Hard odds, but we will prevail!

(we would be prevailing more if we had more people FIGHTING instead of carebearing inside base!)

I would argue against ANY faction being red......red is just bad for everyone.  Players see red they think kill immediately.   


The shade of green you posted, deathproof, would work nicely.  Purple would also be a good choice IMO.
