And how would you do this? We can't limit the encounters in amount, as it wouldn't need much time until some players would have killed all of them and the next 100 players will wonder why there are no encounters on the whole gameworld.


--- Quote from: Solar on February 22, 2011, 09:34:01 AM ---Because they originated in the Master's Vault, so any remnants would logically eminate from there.

Like before, I don't really agree on that. It is true that there have been super mutants in the masters vault, but it wasn't a lot. Mariposa got much more mutants, becuase that's where they have been produced and not in the masters vault.

And agreeing with Lexx also, the 'masters vault' blew up in what I can imagine was a somewhat large explosion.  I remember seeing windows break honest.  So it's much less likely they stuck around, and centaurs and floaters? Weren't those later and more north?

Sadly Surf the game is about what you can farm and where.  I know it's a lot of work, but until there are real consequences for actions in the game, people who really want to go out and enjoy the games quests and such are going to be hunted and abused by people who are out farming encounters, bluesuits, stealing in towns, bombing/shop shooting.  It's all reward to those type of people with little to no cost.

Solar:
I'm at work, so I can't get to the Vault to check. But I'm pretty certain Floaters and Centaurs are the results of the Master's experiments ... conducted in his Vault.

Also, you then have Mutants - the Encounter is the Remnants of the Master's Army. They were created in Mariposa, but it wouldn't have been much of an Army if it was created somewhere and then remained where it was.

We know the Master was based in the Cathedral, so we know where his centre of operations was.
We know Mutants were near V13 because that is an ending.
We know they came into contact with the BoS, because the BoS were fighting the Mutant threat.
We can presume that as a rising political power, the NCR army would have come into contact with them - depending on the exact history of what happened to the Master and the rise of the NCR in the 2238 universe (We are obviously not just a carbon copy of Fallout 2 canon, given that just doesn't make any sense).


The only sure things about it are that if there are any Remnants (there are, they are on the map) that they would logically cover the region in which the main base of operations of the Master was and the region in which Mutants were created - Mariposa and the Cathedral area ... and they would diffuse away from that central region of activity.

Eternauta:
Dop not forget the (maybe less important) operations in the East. If you decide to follow Fallout Tactics a bit (which might be questionable), then you got quite some mutants there.

And these operations are mentioned in Fallout 2: Marcus said he was in the East when the Master died.

EDIT: East East East! East! Sorry I repeated that word so much. Gonna edit to make it a bit more confortable to read :P

Right now there are no repercussions (Reputation is a joke) and there are no choices&consequences.

There already is - you risk your stuff in order to gain XP or loot. Moreover, theres reputation, which you cant omit.

Thats MMO - grind, grind, farm ,farm.
