Hello Fallout 3 players. If I write anything incorrect about something in Fallout 3,just let me know. I'm not particularly a noob,but I'm kind of new to it(level 10). I play xbox 360 fallout 3 by the way. My gamertag is Pro Android. My idea was,to create a forum-based RPG based on Fallout 3. I've never played Fallout 1,or 2. I bought Fallout 3 last week. I know there is quite the DLC for xbox live marketplace,but I want more already,although I havent played through Fallout 3's main story yet.The idea is still in brainstorming,but just like Fallout 3,you would be able to create your character,have your S.P.E.C.I.A.L,perks,karma,experience levels(speech,barter,big guns,etc.).You would begin at the end of Fallout 3(I havent played all the way through so let's just keep it there). I'll have to play through it first,so I'll stop there for right now,but hopefully you guys get the jist of where I'm going. Me,and fellow creators(i'm about to get to that) will make up quests,towns,characters,etc. for you to enjoy while playing. Now,incase you don't know,a forum-based RPG is not like an actual "VIDEO GAME" it's run off of,well,a forum,just like this one,but in instructed formats and forms.If you don't enjoy text-based,forum-based games,or don't have the pacience for them,you probably won't like this one,unless you're just a hardcoe fallout 3 fan(like meh ). This is still in brainstorming,obviously,and since I am still new to the Fallout universe,I'd like to ask you more educated players to help me out with this project. If you would like to help,or give any quest,character,city, or just basic HELP suggestions,then feel free to in a reply. I really would like to do this project,and am not the most educated player,so if you would like to help in on this project,please reply.

Hmmm #1 this topic needs to moved to the Fallout Universe area. If you wanted this to take off better, then quests probably wouldnt be the best thing.

I now realize it should be moved. my bad lol. I'm not sure what you mean by quests being a bad take-off

I mean, a forum based RPG seems hard to do unless its like the Werewolf Appalachia thing in the Community Section. It just seems weird to me for some reason.

It wouldn't be too hard to have a form-base communication of quests set-up. I understand how it sounds like it would be hard. I'd be able to set it up well,all I need is the knowledge of a Fallout expert player. I need the knowledge of pretty much everything,so I'm looking for someone,or maybe a few people to help me with this.

What do you mean by knowledge? Like everything involving FO3 including enemies, NPCs, locations ect. or the Fallout Universe in general?

Locations,Weaponry wouldn't be too hard to find out(internet). But it would still be nice to have a list somewhere. I would need basicly the complete History of Fallout so I don't make any errors,considering it takes place after Fallout 3.Determining on the more history I know,I might change the time the RPG would begin.I plan on,if I get enough help/publicity,to make it big. In this RPG,there will be people playing some of the popular characters in Fallout,like
EXAMPLE: Three Dog,Lyons),or,you could play a brotherhood of steel,or become an enclave soldier,or so many more (wastelander,bounty hunter,vault dweller,ghouls,raiders).You wouldn't have to JUST play main characters either,you could make your own name and character,aswell. There are so many possibilitys a Forum RPG about Fallout would have.

Sounds like an Rp and probably should be in the Fan Fic section.

Heres the timeline of the Fallout Universe. It covers all of the games, and what happened in between each game. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline

Thanks Bro. Once I get this set-up,would you like to help out further? It would be much appreciated . If not,once set up,I'd like you to try it,if you don't mind. Thanks a ton man. Just notify me on here if you ever end up wanting to try it out. It won't be ready for a while,butI'll post a thread when it's ready. Thanks again .

I guess I could give it a try. Ill help you out more as well. What other help do you need?

At the moment I'm all set,If I need additional help on stuff I'll let you know. What I meant though is when I get it running,that if you would like to help me run it.

Oh. Sure.

Cool. Since you're like the only one who seemed to even acknowledge my thread,I'd like to get into further discussion with you about this project later tonight and within the next couple of days. My E-mail is hauntted@live.com but if you have AIM I'd much rather you AIM me at NeoAX77 or my MSN LIVECHAT is halo8586@hotmail.com

Hah I dont really do IM. I never see the point in it, since I would only talk to people I actually know. But, email me at jdc_506@hotmail.com if you want to talk about tis project or something, or send me messages through this board.

Alright will do. Sorry for the spaced-out responses,for I am reading the history you linked me to.

Ehhh im responding alot to my MW2 thread in the Community Section, so whatever.

Now that I think about it,It will be very much like a RP.

What you're thinking of is a long-term RP


Those are fun as long as you abide by rules that limit the players abilities.




Either way, it doesn't really matter.


We have tons of RP's going on. I suggest you try and join two of them before starting your "project"

I looked,all are currently filled up :'[. The next one that opens I'm sure to join no matter what. I'll just have to wait. :'(
