A mutant ! Slow, tough and powerful, that's me !

A ghoul ! Some crazy, slow and highly-intelligent sniper.

A human. A polyvalent char, yes sir !

I would try all of them, I have no favorite race.

I would prefer everyone to play humans characters.

Harold is smart, maybe little ugly, but charisma is not only appearance  
whatever, maybe main skills will be same, but other races can have it different perks.

[Shangalar]

I think there is some confusion about charisma, because people (I mean NPCs) consider you as a ghoul (or as an ugly freak - you choose) when you talk to them with CHA 1.

I agree that you can be an abomination, but a charismatic abomination.

Well making Ghouls and Super Mutants is really good idea but making Ghouls really slow will make them unable to play, nobody will want to play as slow ghoul and will be pissed off. Super Mutants shouldn't have 1 intelligence, most Super Mutants are stupid but not all and giving them 1 Intelligence will make them unplayable too because 7 skill points for level is not that much :/ I think they should have minuses to SPECIAL like -2 or -4 to stats and +2, +4 to others but not like -9 or +9 because everyone is Special

If you'll be a slow ghoul and try to go to NCR for workbench and then to exit grid you can probobly go sleep and then play again when your character is on the world map ....

A walking ghoul is as fast as a normal walking player.

[GRIM]

its not this green abomination slow like hell ? slower than walking people ?

[Lexx]

A bit, yes. But I personally don't think that it matters much. And in emergency cases, we can speed it up a bit.

Anway.. ghouls and mutants will not be ingame in sooner future.

I don't see the problems with ghouls/mutants being charismatic - Harold and Lou certainly are. You just balance it out by having certain places with 'anti-mutant prejudices', like VC. Probably Reno.

I've always wondered why 'civilian' models aren't used as potential player models. Obviously the heavily armoured ones are best avoided to prevent confusion. But leather and below are fine. So long as you tell people that if they're Katja, for example, they can only use spears and smgs  and they can equip no armour beyond leather jackets (and then script it so they can't), what's the problem? Just talk to a guy in the little respawn house. It seems like a very easy way of making the world seem a lot more fresh and interesting.

Don't forget deathclaws! The goris skin would be perfect for hth chars. It has all the animations and has one of the coolest looking animations where he throws down his robes. I think all the followers from F2 should be usuable depending on what skills you have tagged.

[AmneziaHaze]

i think not only ghouls, mutants. you have in game many skins: doctors, warriors, farmers, junkies, prosititutes, kids, merchants, gnomes.. 60-70% of them has full fighting/shooting animations.

actually they don't, most have like 2 weapon animations and lack many of the less obvious animations.

you talking about "junkies, prosititutes and kids" - ok, right. now say something about ghouls in PA

Oh well, Ghouls can be pretty smart but I'd rather take down on their perception. You can say that a good portion of ghouls will be one eyed. The other half just might suffer all kinds of conditions, from having their eyes so exposed into the sun. I'm sure that their eyelids have either rotten away or the little muscle that controls it might be non-functional. I wouldn't be quick to make ghouls sharpshooters. They could have plenty of Endurance, instead. Hit Points is the amount of damage you can take, and ghouls can't take too much, but HP is split into Strength and Endurance. I agree to ghouls having low ST and high EN. They might not be very strong but they sure resist poison, radiation and pain.

This goes totally against cannon since ghouls have always had superhuman perception and very low endurance.

One question - if Ghoul could wear PA, does PA able him to run (and gives other weapon animations)? You know, new, improved "body", new possibilities...
