Roleplay Activities / [Interest Check]Lawyer Poker Game
« on: September 21, 2014, 04:17:30 AM »
-Welcome to the Wasteland Poker Club-

Hey guys, as my name would imply I'm a huge fan of poker, part of my day-to-day involves running/dealing/promoting poker games. As such the love of poker carries over to the post-apocalyptic setting Fallout has set us in.



IF there is enough interest, I can and will setup a poker game for members of the Lawyer faction. There will be an initial cap buyin, and we will play a No-Limit Hold'em Tournament using the PokerStars Home Game client.

I'd first like to see if there is sufficient interest in this to get it off the ground, I already have the club setup and ready to go, we just need players willing to put their caps where their cards are! ;)

Show your interest and we'll be gambling in no time!

**Unfortunately this is only for Lawyers, for obvious reasons.**




How it works:
--------------
1) All players need to download and install the poker client:
http://www.pokerstars.com/poker/download/


Then follow the the instructions below to register to the poker club:
2) You are invited to join my private poker club for Home Games online.

- If you don't already have it, download the free PokerStars software from www.pokerstars.com - Open the main poker lobby, then click on the Home Games tab
- Click the 'Join a Poker Club' button
- Enter my Club ID number: 751903
- Enter my Invitation Code: vault dweller

That's it! Once I've approved your membership request, we'll be ready to start playing Wasteland Poker online together.





3)

The poker club will have multiple HEADSUP (1v1) tables available for ANYONE to hop on a table and start challenging players. However, for full ring games, I WILL HAVE TO BE ONLINE AND COLLECTING THE ENTRANCE FEES FOR THE TOURNAMENT.

Upside: Only SCHEDULED high stakes games will take place, with myself holding onto the bank to ensure the winner(s) get payed out properly.

Downside: Only headsup games can be done without my being online.
----------------------
I hope this interests a lot of poker players to come out of hiding and start wagering those stockpiles of caps. Even if you don't play poker, maybe you'll find a wastelander who is a competent competitor and you could "stake" him in a game.  There are plenty of rich folks out there who may want to put their money on your poker skill!

Roleplay Activities / Old Friends Reunite

Bantz from 2238, Stribe from FO2, and a Straggler new to the wastes! All unite and enjoy a friendly chat! Peace is possible!

I'd like to somehow organize a faction that is a conglomerate of factionless players.

Our goal will be to scavenge and attempt to create a known neutral ground  between this conglomerate faction and all others. (Or just killing and doing whatever the fuck we want) Allowing inter-faction trading/sit-downs/deals/alliances etc.

Perhaps utilizing the sewers to create a safe haven for traders/scavengers.

If there are others looking to take the challenge to slowly unite the wasteland and (more than likely) die trying, show your support here, and PM me to get my voice communication info.

(The sewers will be our home, and the core will be our playground)

Suggestions / [Pipboy] Changelog Screen
« on: September 17, 2014, 07:38:19 PM »
A changelog screen within the game on the pip-boy screen would be awesome. Allowing a more immersive experience without having to minimize to go to forums after every update. Will make the game a more streamlined experience for all players.

Suggestions / Melee Weapons Take Damage
« on: September 17, 2014, 03:00:24 PM »
Depending on the type of armor the opponent has, and ALSO depending on the TYPE of move used with the melee weapon, the weapon will take some damage. Requiring repairs if the damage warrants it.


Example:
A Machete "Swung" at an opponent in Combat Armor will suffer X% damage

A Machete "Thrusted" at an opponent in Combat Armor will suffer (X%-5).

This will breed the need for quick thinking as a melee character, and add a level of thought process not seen in the melee field of combat. Now HtH users will have to be quick in their assesment of the threat to determine the best course of action.

More thought process = deeper levels of combat. Which seems like it's always a good thing.

Thoughts?

Resolved bugs / Drug Effects Last Forever on Death?
« on: September 16, 2014, 05:25:37 PM »
Friend of mine said that he took a "blood moon"? (I've never saw this item) and he died while under it's affects and now he is constantly under the affect.

Giving him more positives than negatives.

Is this an isolated incident?

Suggestions / Updates Not Affect Hotkeys

Everytime we get an update, our hotkeys get reverted. Is there a possible fix to this?

Suggestions / Can't See Player Names, N of Junkyard
« on: September 14, 2014, 07:01:52 AM »
I think this should be fixed? Perhaps by adding a wall north of Junkyard? Unless this is purposeful? But I can't imagine why it'd be hard to see someone whose standing right out in the open.

General Discussions / Question Regarding Platoons:
« on: September 13, 2014, 06:27:02 PM »
Can platoons own both base types? Or are two separate platoons required, one name per base?

Wondering because it would be mighty useful to have 2 bases to separate different ranked members.

Game Tips & Guides / [Lawyers]New to Fonline? OPEN THIS
« on: September 13, 2014, 03:55:17 PM »
For those who don't know me, I'm Jack. Been playing Fonline for a few years since Fonline2238. I typically play the loud-mouthed good samaritan, and this season will be no different. I open my arms to the new players of the wasteland. Knowing just how hard it was to play such an unforgiving and harsh game, I want to make that transition easier for the many of you who may be for the first time touching your feet to the wasteland sand!

If you're new to the Fonline world, or maybe if you're just new to this iteration of the game, I'd like to welcome you to my squad of Fluent English Speakers.

If you'd like some help getting started, and like to learn the ropes with some other friendly fellows, please, feel free to join us on my mumble server. A few requirements must be met however:

-Must be FLUENT in English. (Accents must be understandable)
-MUST be on mumble to take part in our endeavors, this makes it much easier to carry out missions and tasks.
-Must maintain a friendly and warm attitude, we will not tolerate anyone making our wasteland time any more stressful than it is! :D

Please message me here in order to get my mumble information. Hope to be of help to you new players out there!

Suggestions / Voting System In Order to Ruin Rep of Teamkillers
« on: September 12, 2014, 05:05:50 PM »
SUGGESTION AT BOTTOM


Friendly Players shooting OTHER friendly players, just for being around during town control...

With current system in place, a larger squad can wipe out any other smaller friendly squad without losing reputation. See below:





Windrunner and her group here seem to have no problem killing new friendly players for no reason... or rather (for being bluesuit during ZC)

I die because I defend the new player of course (Of course this is a logical thing to do apparently)

SUGGESTION:

NPC in base that will take votes to kick a volatile member of the faction. Enough votes, and maybe that person goes back down to 0 reputation? (This will only hurt everyone but the richest of players, so even this is only a temporary "fix" )

Suggestions / Checking Player Inventory In Core
« on: September 12, 2014, 01:27:50 AM »
I'd love to see the ability to check inventory implemented while in the core (AND ONLY IN THE CORE TO NON-TEAMATES).

I've successfully robbed 3 people so far, but can't be sure if they shortchanged me... as a robber, I'd like to be thorough in my investigations to make sure I'm not letting them get away with a lethal weapon or valuable relic.

What are we supposed to do about it?

I lost 8k reputation trying to kill 2 teamkillers.

Suggestions / Disable Faction Chat When Dead
« on: September 10, 2014, 05:08:46 PM »
I feel that when you're laying on the floor dead, you shouldn't be able to use the faction chat to relay your death, enemies, location etc. In my opinion you should have to wait until you respawn to explain your death to friends and potentially organize a loot-rescue mission.

I understand while the most organized players will be in voice chat and will be coordinating their efforts better than any random using chat... This should also be a setback for playing a loner. You're unable to communicate with anyone until you respawn.

No backup can be called, giving the attacking team about 1 minute of radio silence about their actions.

Any thoughts on this guys?

Events & Politics / A Proposed cease-fire Between Lawyers and V-tec
« on: September 08, 2014, 05:55:00 PM »
As it stands right now, V-tec seems to have the most population, mainly of new players, many unarmed, and lightly equipped.. Easy bullet fodder for most other factions.

Brahmin Boys have been packing a whollop into Lawers' Gate during peak hours almost all day.

Suggestion: V-tec and Lawyers cease fire until there is a balance in Phoenix or a more formal alliance can be arranged.

Responses?
