Me think out loud
« on: January 16, 2013, 08:45:59 am »

Wai done me talk so strange.

Ok guys, I get it. Low intelligence makes you talk like a retard. It adds to the fun (for me personally). But why must it effect your spelling like a maniac on every drug and liquor?

It gust doesn't mace sense. Wai kan't me qnow how to pronounce words like joinj [ed. going]?

My suggestion is, stick with the grammar mistakes and changing words like "I" to "me", "do" to "done", abbreviations like "fa" to "stich me" and leaving out words like "a" completely. I love it. Even if sometimes it makes no sense at all, it's all good fun. Maybe add some more grammar mistakes.
But the spelling errors are just plain annoying. In combination with the bad grammar, everything goes to shit.

I agree. It messes up pvp sometimes.

My only complaint is that in original FO games INT 3 made you a retard and not 4.

Starting from the end - slightly changed chance for replacing single word; compared to previously used, if anyone is curious:

IN 1IN 2IN 3IN 4
SDK100%80%60%30%
223895%80%60%20%

Replacements taken from predefined list (no automatic single-letter changes), with possibility to have few variations of one word, or removing it (used for "a", "an"). It's a tiny thing, so i'd put it on hold for few updates; maybe someone have some fitting ideas/own mistakes in that time, which could get use. Best if posted that way:

burst - dakdak, ratata, pew pew, dakka
train - choo-choo

Maybe at INT 1 occasionally you could add 'YOLO' to the end of their sentences.  I know of no other word that makes someone look like a fucking retard.

Or change 'gear' or 'equipment' or 'armour' etc. to swag.

Might add a bit of danger to having INT 1 though...

This is the scenario I imagine:
Stupid player: "BRB Imma go get ma swag from ma tent. YOLO.
Friend Shoots Stupid Player in the eye for 299 damage.  Stupid Player was killed.
Friend:  "Sorry bro... I just couldn't let you live after saying that..."

And also, how bout a reverse?  8 9 10 int could change normal words to their intelligent equivalent, like "get" to "acquire" or "Go fuck yourself" to "Go fornicate with yourself"

Brahmin = Moo Moo


Should be the most obvious one, also replacing gear for "swag" would be a fun way to make fun of douches and wiggers.

You guys really want devs to implement a word substitution lookup table to the input line parser?  Easily done, but to what end?

It's all really about suppression of dissension, consensus through censorship.  Whether through extermination of those who have different or conflicting viewpoints or subtle spin of available media.  If there is only one opinion left, it must be right, right?

If anything, the word changes are good for spamming.

But anyway, the intelligence having an effect on words is quite pointless feature. Some might consider it funny but with equal chance someone else might think it's dumb, but it's not even realistic. Just think about it like this: If someone is retard, how come his words are idiotic but his actions are not? Shouldn't a dumb guy do something stupid every now and then? Like pay 10000 caps in shop instead of 1000?

Based on evidence collected from various sources by trustworthy attendees it is undisputed veritability that the land ravaged by atomic warfare which caused extreme change of the ecosystem and environmental hazards can be considered unpleasant, rugged and unforgiving.

Makes me wonder what kind of evil experiments you do alone in those Trapper Camps...

Shush, or some crazy dev might implement replacing player actions with idiotic actions for low INT :>
