This might belong in the Off-Topic section, but I don't have posting rights in there...(Dev's you forgot to fix that)
Anyways a friend of mine is interested in making something like a 4 person co-op Fallout Server and is looking for people to help him do it. It's not a big project, but he is looking for people who share the same interests. I'll quote a few of his ideas...
Storyline:
You start out in a village (with four other people) While one day out hunting for geckos/brahmin, a veritibird flies over your head (scripted hopefully) and you rush back to your village only to find out it has been destroyed by the enclave. Those who did not put up a fight were taken (To the oil rig to be used to expand the Enclave army. Brainwashed and implants of course.) You take the tribal scared weapon (unique on depending on what you tagged. SG, EW, BG, Melee. Highest %) Ambushed by raiders they take your unique weps and you're saved by a faction(New reno,NCR,Bos,VC,more will be added as we find it fitting.)..depending on karma you earned in the village. You'll have to work off your "debt" you earned from them saving your life.(bascially just quest that'll be more than helpfull giving you a starting gun..food, water and such)The quest will be like hunting gecks bringing in brahmins delivering stuff. After you pay off your debt they'll set you off with quite a bit of caps and then you start your journey to finding the enclave.
**IDEAS**
* long range healing(needler ammo. only can be used on leather and skin armor.)
*Option of making a small settlement in your base after your influence and power grows.
*Mercs become your personal army to help you push back the enclave(once your base and influnce grows)
*In game Faction resource control.(Sanfran has control of oil but doesn't have to power to keep it as BOS and NCR come knocking)
*Hunger and thrist
*Set number of enclave, Stop them from gaining more soldiers by protecting villagers.
*You can ally your group with a faction for benefits but prepared to go to war when they do.
*Harder human NPcs tactics will be a must when defeating human NPCs
*Upper tier armor gets a drastic boost
*added weps(use same skins as some weps just different stats)
*There MUST be a leader char for each group
*Making a group of BGS will just get you picked off by snipers. Deversifty your group to live.
*Reputation plays A GRAND part of this game
*Enclave will be able to take over cities in the west (san fran modoc klmath) you can stop/slow their progression by fighting back.
*Enclave invading force will be captured villagers controlled by brainwaashing/implants
Sounds cool eh? However it's a lot of work that requires a larger team. So far he is by himself on this one, and a bit inexperienced but is passionate about making this into a reality. IF you are interested in working on this or something like it and are also looking for Programmers to help you make a server, might as well post it here.

Add some npc-pks here and there to up the difficulty.
Oh and don't forget thieves.

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.

Avv, PK is going to happen in this game, but it won't be the mindless slaughter that happens here. Reputation is going to play a heavy part of this game, example: You attack a group that is allied with the NCR expect your Rep to go down and to be attacked on sight. All trade from NCR and it's allies will stop until you go through the necessary steps to raise your rep with them. Oh and stealing...Since we're limiting four people to a group and you WILL need to be in a group to survive. I'm sure no one would waste points in a skill that would have very limited role in this game. Sorry for my unorganized sentences.

Stealing would be a great addition to any party, imagine all the "quest related stuff" you could steal instead of work for... Maybe even make the stealing skill affect the Con Artist skill or something

Okay then, let me correct myself then. People who are caught stealing(from people, Not NPCs) will be tagged(name color changed, title change.It's In discussion.) for the reminder of the game to discourage stealing from players but we won't completely nerf the skill. It will have a role in the game like all the others.
