lol, no problem. And topic derailment in my opinion is almost unaviodable. It seems that every thread evolves to a different topic over time no matter what.

Such is the way of all things, they are born of other things, the grow and evolve but eventually they die as do their fathers. What the crazy game was that form?
anyway i liked what i played of tactics. it is very diffrent though. whatever.

Thats exactly the way I would describe tactics, not better or worse, just different...

DID SOMEONE SAY MILKDUDS! I LOVE MILKDUDS NEED MILKDUDS TO ARGUE PROPERLY, SUGER GOOOOD!!!!
Im ok, Im ok, Im ok.... But I think the arguing stopped... In fact, it almost looks like we are now discussing the virtues of Tactics. Amazing how quickly conversations turn due to new members such as scottaran and myself. Especially if the new members have too much free time like me.

Yeah, well, we love to have new members here.
Now for some input from me on the matter: I still don't like Tactics. I will agree that, as ONLY a tactical combat game, it was alright. However, it has the 'Fallout' name on it, and as I argued before I felt that Tactics wasn't nearly Falloutish enough. Also, this is only my opinion for the sake of saying it only, and not for the sake of debating. *looks over at rad *

Yeah, I somewhat agree that it does not feel as fallout like as the other games. It felt like the combat system was almost the same but the extra members that you actually got to control. It was very falloutish however if you thought in the context that fallout is not just an RPG anymore since tactics. Even before tactics however, some people may agree with me, Fallout is a way of life, tactics just enhanced that feeling for me... Whatever, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

Yeah i guess thats pretty accurate. Its an ok game, a good tactical game but a shithouse ambassador of the Fallout series. The only reason it felt like fallout to me was organising weapons and stims and armour like you did in 1 and 2.

yeah... the CTF system needs some polishing up, it was good, but the origional turnbased was much better.

I think that fallout was on the title simply becuase it was from the time period.

Yeah, but still, a lot of people (like me) preordered the game. However, after the first week or so when word about what Tactics was like got around, sales dropped a lot.

HAHA HAHA HAHA I just think that tactics is really fun but there is one major problem with it. All it does is branch off of the main fallout storyline. In the RPG fallout games I was always really pissed because the people in my party always got in the way, so I never got any CHA... In fallout one since there were so few... it pays to be able to move people out of the way...
