Title: Importing the Fallout Restoration Project into fonline
Post by: Roachor on January 17, 2010, 02:59:30 am
Namely the new locations like the EPA and the various items that were left out of fallout 2. I'm sure there's enough people who would want to be able to smoke pot in fonline and its good background info on the fallout universe for people that don't know.

That would be awesome!
But it could be a big burden to the developers...

Well the fixed quests and everything could be left out since its not relevant, pretty much all you'd have to do is import the items and the new locations. Should be simple enough to do.

Question about the 'why?' stays. Imo there are enough empty locations in the game already.

The EPA could be inserted as a "dungeon" like sierra miltary base in the future, or the primitive tribe as there is no current "town" with tribesmen in there.
But I have to agree - first make the already existing ones, then later there could be the question of implementing new stuff.

Well if there were reasons to go to those places such as quests or possibly hostile npc's(that give xp) guarding the EPA, with the machine in the basement dispensing some kind of reward like xp or maybe items. Something that would require teamwork to get through.

Huh?

Why i don't see the "Burrows" anywhere?

This place was to be ihabited by a tribe of intelligent racoons. They were subjects to Enclave's experiments but 4 of them (2 males, 2 females) managed to escape and later founded this "village"

Because that would have to be made entirely from scratch, critters and all, as there is no Burrows mod for Fallout 1 (afaik).

About burrow from The Vault:  http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Burrows

Developer quotes:
"As for the Burrow, this location was written by an early designer associated with the project. While it was well written, I felt that its content was not appropriate to our Fallout universe, mainly based on its style and feel in the game and not on its artistic merit. So I did not approve its addition to the game, and that Glow holodisk is all that remains of any reference to that area. - Tim Cain
Burrows: I always felt it didn't fit in with the rest of the game. It was a finely designed area, and would have helped the Glow, but it just didn't seem Fallout-like. - Chris Taylor"

creator of F2:RP  was dont have access to orginal sources  sadly ;/

The guys 'making' the Fallout 1 Restoration Mod are reluctant to add Burrows back in because it would kinda screw up the canon other than 'restore' it and Burrows critters would require all new animation sets. Thread on NMA (http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=51475&start=0).

Players had a consciousness? It is laudable

Absolutely agree

I am assured developers will disagree and will tell about the business legal side, not the first case

Good idea.

Well at least a Primitive Tribe location would be good IMHO, because there is no "tribal" location in FOnline.

It would just be PK grounds like Modoc because of weak/no guards.

So?

Since when do all interests and questions relating content etc. just come to an "pvp" point of view? If location xy is interesting enough for people who don't like to PK etc, then tweak it. Isn't tweaking the purpose of a beta? Or is it blowing sugar in a PK-s arse?
Title: Re: Importing the Fallout Restoration Project into fonline
Post by: Reconite on January 17, 2010, 03:28:58 pm
As was said before, there are already too many empty locations, maybe they could add EPA and stuff later on, but now - I don't think it's a good idea.
Title: Re: Importing the Fallout Restoration Project into fonline
Post by: Surf on January 17, 2010, 03:32:51 pm
Yep, that's what I wrote before, on the first page.
First things first! :D

It just sounded a bit, that there will be never e.g. a "tribal location" , because of the PK problem etc. ;)

Much as I love them, I even think that adding the Fallout 1 towns was over ambitious. We don't need to spread the players even more thinly across the world. I'd like to see the EPA etc. eventually, but there's a lot more important stuff to do.
