Things are going slower due to the 1.5 fiasco and BS. We're trying to figure how what needs done and if we're going to make this 1.5 compatible or not.

That's not true. Quite frankly, I couldn't give a rat's about 1.5 compatibility, if it means I will have to redo all of the references in the mod, I'm not even going to consider compatibility.

It's been a while since updates because I don't want this so hyped that people get irritated when it takes time. The BETA will come as soon as possible, and is nearing completion over time. This is a very large project, and it won't be built in a week. If you want some more pics, I can take some in a few hours and update this thread.

I am not trying to offend you by any means, and am merely just stating actual facts in the following comment. Anyway, did you not say that you were giving the player an overly ambitious quest # of 20, with mutliple ways to complete them. Did you not promise top-grade, customizable defence units, over the top choices, new items, detailed and voiced NPCs, and to top it off the BETA over 2 months ago?
Overhyped? You have 1 thread that contains 10 filled pages, and another with 4, and you are stating you don't want it over hyped?

Some would say you are hoisted by your own batard.

Hoisted on my own petard. If you're going to critisize me (don't worry, I'm not offended) at least do it properly :P

And yes, the mod was most definately over hyped (mostly my own fault) which is precisely why I want to let it die down know. Over ambitious? Maybe. Only time will tell. At the least, I would like to release an engaging quest mod which will be enjoyable to play. Better to start big and then reduce than vice versa. Makes it much more smooth and coherent if it ever does become a large mod.

In my defence (for what it's worth) I have been asking for ideas, suggestions and feedback the whole of the past thread and a half, and so far that feedback is proving extremely useful. So there was a point to those massive threads. I'm content now to let this die down until the beta has been released.

Damn, didn't anyone ever teach you not to bite the hand that feeds you?

And, most of the time it was not Attentater doing the hyping, it was us, the fans who were excited and made that thread 10 pages long. I for one am glad he is holding back the BETA so we get something good, instead of a pile of rubbish labeled bar (although in the Wasteland that would be luxury :P) And I'm also glad he is giving us information instead of keeping us in the dark thinking we will never get any good quest mods.

Don't come in her and tell him flame while saying your not. Its like saying "No offense, but your ugly" lol

Sorry, I needed to loose a little bit of aggression today, and I don't like it when people insult my friends.

Another thing people need to realize is that all of the scripting and GECK work rests on Attentater5's shoulders. All I'm good for is testing, input/ideas, voice acting, audio editing and texturing/modeling. All most the stuff I do won't be needed for some time. Have patience and I can promise you that you will at least get a great quest mod :)

Oh yeah, forgot to say that, be patient and you'll see how great this mod is.

And Drag0nTamer, you may not be able to help in Scripting and World Building but what you do do (haha I said do do jk) really helps Attentater and the Bar. Btw, I love your Scorpion Armour and the billboard outside of the bar, they are amazing.

He didn't sorry, I was doing a little Pre-Beta testing for him, just to check out the bar and Holloway's speech to get more feedback on them, and it was all amazing.

I understand it is a rather large mod, which, in turn, created the hype. I am completely aware as well, that holding it back could easily mean a better BETA, but only as Attentar said,"Only time will tell."

I apologize for the anger I gave off throughout the post, and whether or not you believe if I intended to provoke you is your choice, but posting without proofreading seemed like a good idea around 12:00am last night.

I also had reason to let loose some steam, because missing an A by 0.1/2 points doesn't exactly put me in a happy mood.

Anyway I am greatful for the mod Attentar is putting out, no matter how I may act.

The time aspect is one I can relate to as well, because you are obviously busy at hand with a rather large mod, as well as real world responsibilities.

I do hope, however, that it finishes as quickly as possible, for it is not my impatience driving me, but the hype.

An npc approachs you and engages you in dialog, if you refuse or dont have the cash.. the debt variable is increased (perhaps even have a vig?).

Next week(month, or whatever) the npc approaches you again. Perhaps this time with several goons, if you refuse bad things happen(Maby the goons break the players legs?). They could also steal some stims if the player owns any ;)

Anyhow just a thought :P


That would be hilarious maybe you could also make the player crawl around until they heal their legs. :biglaugh: by the way this mod looks freakin sweet

MadMax - First of all, what I am about to say is just a concept, and there is a high probability that it will never happen. Just so you don't het your hopes up.

Anyway, for one buildable upgrade for the Bar, I am considering adding a buildable radio tower, with an associated radio station. I was wondering... maybe I could use some of your music for the Bar radio station? The DJ would say something along the lines of "Now, here's another song by Mad Max!" Perhaps there could even be a character in game...

Just another idea thrown into the mix :) Actually... what do you guys think? Would you listen to a 500 Rads radio station?

yes,yes I would :drool:

Man, this is shaping up to look like better than any F3 DLC packs right now. Too bad I'm on 360... :cold:

Hey, since it's looking so good, maybe you can submit it to Bethesda as official DLC? Then us Xbox users would get it and that's another way for PS3 users to suffer!

should put out a geck for xbox lets say 800 microsoft points

I know what I'm about to say is pretty pointless this late in the mod, but it would be cool if you could sell robots and trained animals to people as companions.

Very quick update:


Exams are approaching rapidly, and my parents will blow a fuse if I don't get straight A's, so very little progress has been made. However, exams finish soon, and I should be able to get straight back into it :)

White Reaver: Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not quite sure what you mean. Sell animals/robotic animals to customers?

That's the least of your worries. Don't make me fly down there and whip you into shape -I can, I will, and your parents would probably foot the bill happily :D

Good luck on your finals. Get rested, we can easily wait and besides -no brainer coming- the 500 rads bar would only be a factor next to getting good grades if this were your chosen profession and there was:
a crunch/shipping/deadline looming.
and I don't see one.
Besides, if you flunk out you'll be in summer school -or whatever- and it'll take even longer before release
See, only love 'round here homey :D



Acolyte cringes whenever Bossman tries to sound 50 yrs younger. It's just really harsh on the ears, you know?

Andy/acolyte/bossman, your posts never fail to make me laugh (occasionally nervously :P).

These aren't actually my finals, just my year 10 exams, so don't worry, I won't be going to summer school any time soon :D

And yeah, translations will be fine. I might even have a go at doing a german translation myself sometime :P

Yes it would be spelled "das Vault" if "vault" is a proper noun. The correct german translation is "der Bunker". I am german speaking coming from Austria.
