Suggestions / Needler Pistol fix *Input wanted from all players*

« on: September 25, 2014, 10:57:29 PM »

Currently, The needler pistol has a broken perk "More Bleed". As you may know, The needler pistol doesn't actually do bleed damage, So this is a wasted perk slot. The admins said if we get support from other players, It's likely to be changed.

Here are my suggestions, Either;
 1) Make needler pistol actually do bleed damage, Somewhere around 50% chance for 50 bleed damage
 2) Swap the More bleed perk with something like Bonus rate of fire.

Currently, This weapon is extreamly lacking in terms of damage output and useful perks.

How would you suggest to fix this gun? Post below and share your ideas

1) Make everything with Needler in it scale from Doctor, just as sneaking weapons.
2) Give it Limb Shredder or it's alternative, i think that this gun has to be a "shit in everything else, but in one thing it exceeds everything else".
3) Give it poison effects, which is the best IMO. Or make it a non-lethal poison one, which won't do damage, but will work similarly to stun grenade (short period disoriented and winded).
I really hope my suggestions 'd help some1, or even improve theirs.

Currently, there are not "support" weapons in game. Giving the needler an alternate mode that shoots stimpacks could be a lot of fun, and make combat medics more relevant.

In this scenario (AoP) I imagined it would be a very high bleed/winding but low damage/knockdown sort of weapon for hitting and running.

The idea of linking it to doctor is interesting, as it's main skill would still be small guns and the doctor side would just be the perks, surely that would require some new and interesting weapon perks to fit the theme though, and then you'd might as well add other "doctor" weapons to attach these new perks to.

Different ammo types for the needler could be interesting too, if you could attach effects to ammo like say an AP draining poison cartridge (over straight up stunning people).

Shooting stimpacks just seems incredibly overpowered to me, and everyone would be carrying one around for ranged healing shenanigans at all times. Healing from first aid and stimpaks is already so strong.

Shooting drugs into your friends and enemies from a distance however, could prove both useful in terms of support and hilarious in terms of trolling enemies.

Suggestions / Brief case

« on: September 19, 2014, 07:52:24 PM »

Brief cases should be able to be opened or traded to a NPC for things like, 1k exp or 250 caps...

Or maybe random useful items (Not crappy items)

Maybe even a type of lottery ticket item... Ranging anywhere from 10 caps to a tier 3 gun

Suggestions / Traps are too expensive.

« on: September 07, 2014, 01:46:32 PM »

Traps are a one time use deal, Unfortunately They require more parts than a tier 2 gun.

Please lower the resources, Springs and oil cans are not easy to come by, Especially when your using them to craft a one time use item, I don't think it should be so cheap that everyone would spam them 24/7, But i think they should be cheap enough where you can actually use them realistically

Here is my proof

General Discussions / Traps and lockpicking as the same skill?

« on: September 04, 2014, 09:49:33 PM »

It doesn't make sense to me, I hate to complain about things i haven't personally experienced, But it seems to me , Most people will have lockpicking already, And That just gives them defense against traps automatically...

Meaning "Trapper" type combat style is thwarted by a lockpicker...

It's like... Why call the bombsquad in when everyone can disarm the bomb?

I was looking forward for teamates counting on me to trap the enemy, and disarm/scout the enemy traps... Seems like everyone can do this on their own now though.

Again, I'm just complaining about something i've never experienced.

Game Tips & Guides / I'd like to be a sniper. Help?

« on: September 02, 2014, 04:51:45 PM »

Hello, I have never played Fallout 2 on the PC. I'm currently downloading it now, I would like to be a "Sniper, With sneak skills, And lockpicking skills"

I'd like to know a few things.

1) Is this even a viable setup?

2) is there a perk that allows me to see farther, For example, Could i see an enemy that couldnt see me ?

3) If my teamate is between my target and myself when i shoot, Will it hit my teamate, Or do i have to click a teamate to friendly fire?

4) Could you give me some examples of good stats / perks for a person specializing in snipers?

General Discussions / Hello, I'm looking forward to this.

Recently i was laid off work, So being broke and all has lead me to searching for new games, Unfortunately the current generation of games cares more about graphics, and less about game quality, This game seems to be the opposite, and i love it. I'm looking forward to the release date, Unfortunately as i mentioned, I am broke, I would love to donate money to the game, because it looks amazing, I just cannot. I guess this leads me to my question, Is this game free? I've searched and all i could find is "You need fallout 2 downloaded". Will they provide a download link, or would i need to buy fallout 2 to play this game ? I hope this is not the case, As i cannot afford it.
