I am Caviano.. It wasn't me with a mutant skin.
Yes. It was my character, Saltwater which had mutie skin last session (Thanks, Surf!) and it was in Redding Me, along with other mutant folks was defending Redding.
OK, time to my best memories.
First of all, the best was the begining when I was completely green in this. I was chilling in Dusty's and suddenly stranger told me "hey youngster, wanna know what is it all about?" and he taught me the basics of the game mechanics. It was wonderful time to discover the features one by one. I've also managed to form a faction with my "real life" friends. We were harsh roleplayers and occasionally "guarded" the Gecko mine. Then we established first contact with foreign faction - TTTLA. First - hostile, then we became friends and did some actions together. It was a nice time, but by time, my faction was disbanded because of lack of time to play.
WWP - Wasteland Wildlife Protectors. It was a wonderful time. I remember first time I visited Redding it was for the quest. But I've spotted some guys who's not shooting me. We started to talk. I recognized some of old friends and started to guard town with them. By time, we formed a faction and the project. We've eventually allied with CS to repell attack of Rogues, SoT and their allies. IT was very "hot" time. Afternoons - farming, Evenings - very big battles. Like 40 vs 40 players + mercs in one single map! It was totally ok for me. There's raiders and there's townfolks who want to defend their beloved town. There was a good reason to fight for.
The next stage was Sarmatians. I've been loner for a long time, however I had a good contacts with TTTLA, Section 8 and even some Chosen Soldier guys by trading with them. After talk with KTTDestroyer, leader of TSAR I've joined up with all my resources, bases and equipment. I've gathered a lot of it. We've separated and big alliance was broken. Hawks allied with us and C88, VSB and TTTLA was in other side of the barricade. I've never thought about them bad, they were good people. TSAR's own project in Redding and Den was nice, even so pro-pvp players like Kilgore was impressed because we improved this what we learned during WWP Project. We even had a silent agreement with BBS. We do pvp in the Redding mines and they are not trying to retake town. Also we had secret methods to get i.e. 800hps 75%+ critchance 50% dmg res militia. There was no exploits, just harsh selection of the fittest.
I've also helped Street Queens. It was something extremaly funny and enjoyable to meet these guys, to help the rookies and simply have a good time and unity huntings and centaur safari.
Fear and his friends were also awesome people. I loved this time I've spend on idling in NCR, sometimes going out to hunt down the russian schoolkiddos near Frisco.
Oh and my "race" with John Metzger to get the Ice-Cold Killer award I've finally won with over 20 000 critters killed.
And really, thanks for this moments people. Without you, it wouldn't be the same.
