They can't even use that excuse because Fallout 3 is an extensive overhaul mod of the Oblivion engine to begin with, so it has no excuse for being poor story-wise.

Okay, so, today this girl I know-Lauren, just took a sudden dis-interest in talking to me. Is she just on her period or something?

I'm just saying that if i shot them in the arm and their arm kinda went back every time you shot them it'd be easy because they couldn't aim at you. If more realistic death shots are what you're after then i'm going to chase you with a pitchfork because I LOVE THEM XD

The thing is, that'd also apply to you, making not getting hit an important aspect.

Now add vats, and you can shoot and ragdoll effect 3-4 enemys at once to get behind cover. :P

Ah well. Imma just call the idea not to my taste from here on in and leave the argument alone XD

I don't hold with enemies ragdolling the instant they're hit (although you'll recall that in FO3 they do flinch occasionally). I'm fine with Critical Existence Failure provided it's not exaggerated or overused. I probably should have made that a bit clearer considering the fact that I didn't is what sparked the discussion.

Yeah, I got it after i posted twice and was like "Hh SHI-, that's what s/he meant."

If they do realistic ragdolls though, I want at least one weapon so overly unrealistic that one shot from it would send them FLYING.

How about the Heavy Offensive Low Yield Sustained High Impact Thunder gun?

Sounds good. Or they could just keep the fat man and make the ammo more common. That'd work.

OH! Make the gauss rifle have another appearance.

The Fatman is almost NEVER a useful weapon. Most of the times when your in combat, enemies are too close. Not to mention problems with using it while you have followers. It's a fun weapon, but not a useful one. Gauss Rifle would be much better if the reload were a bit faster, or you got at least 2 shots per microfusion cell.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

The ammo mechanics of the Gauss rifle confused me.
So a "standard" plasma rifle or whatever,you could fire 12 shots then put in another micro fusion cell.
The Gauss rifle,you can fire one shot before reloading a brand new cell in.Yet,it doesn't use 12 rounds,it uses 1 per shot.so if i have 48 micro fusion "rounds" for a Gauss rifle,i have 48 individual cells,but if i'm using the rifle,i somehow lost all but  4 cells,since you only reload after 12 shots from one.

Must.stop.trying.to make sense.out of fictional world.

Oh, that ones not to hard. The Gauss rifle was made years before the laser rifle, its less efficient.

The fat man? You can only get like 108 shots for it anyway, i can think of 108 times i could have used it.

I just liked shooting it at such an extreme angle that it made a 'ding' sound just before it hit the ground. That always gave me a smile.

Also, nobody got my joke. I'm sad now.

Unless you go into vats and get the 9/10 damage reduction. Then it becomes hax on a level with Pun Pun.
