Don't use 3d Models... Keep it oldskool...

Yup I went thru the wiki and looked at those new 3d models... I hate to say it but as a BIG old school fan of the Fallout series (since its been released) I do not like Van Buren or the 3d models on the wiki, they do not look like they belong or have that "Fallout quality." I'm actually still impressed by how the 2d graphics of Fallout 1 and 2 look highly realistic from the guns to the landscapes to the gore... it's PERFECT. And trying to CHANGE Fallout will not make it Fallout... no offence but you might as well call it something else if you plan on using 3d models since it won't be "Fallout" it would be something like Fall-Out 3d... Sorry again but even the 3d rats and rad toads (and the other new critters) look bad and out of place...

Sorry I know you don't have to take my "suggestion" seriously, but I highly suggest not replacing the skins from the original Fallout to be 3d... Van Buren failed and the coding and work to make it work in the Fallout engine is going to be a big headache for nothing. You guys aren't getting paid for this (it will take years to make this a 3d game) and Fallout Online is great right now (almost perfect!) and I highly suggest simply trying to make the game experiance better and more interesting (more quests, locations, etc expand Fallout 1 and 2) instead of trying to CHANGE Fallout...

The old school graphics and engine worked well enough to make and keep Fallout 1 and 2 a constant hit even in 2010 so yeah it just seems a little like a bad idea to try and do what Interplay failed at: Turning Fallout 3d.... we've all played Tactics and Fallout 3... it just isn't the same as Fallout 1 and 2...  I'm just suggesting to drop the idea of turning anything from Fallout into 3d... it will ruin the game.

Sorry Man, But You Can Always Play the Ol'd Single Player. That isnt 3D, But FOnline wants to go 3D It will be WAY Cooler, But It wont be 2D. I Say we go Ahead, And dude its WAAAAY Too late to be saying to keep it oldschool, The Russian lad's have been working on this for Months.
So Screw you Bucko!

I can understand your doubts about the new critters, it's always hard to accept new changes to a thing you already know many years.
If you ask me, I also like the graphical stlye of the old critters more, but see how much new possibilities could be introduced with 3d/2.5d objects.

If one wanted to implement new weapons in the goode' ol' Fallout 2 engine a whole bunch of graphics needed to be drawn/generated, a whole lot of work just for one single change. With the 2.5d critters, it is really much more easier and opens new ways of adding content to FOnline. ;)

Karpov:
That's why we are trying to make models  look like the ones in fallout. Even if the graphics are in 2d in the original game, they come from a 3d model.

look at this

What if we had access to the original game models and could use them in the game? would it look bad and out of place like you say?

I think it would not. If we manage to create models and animations similar to the one in the game it could be awesome.

And if the guys from the original Fallout team could have used the technology we have today to make the game run those 3d models in real time back in 1997, don't you think they would have done it?

Roachor:
This game can't progress without 3d, it's a moot point.
