PRiME 1 Posted October 1, 2002 I would like to see the game FALLOUT remade with the OFP engine. I would do it myself but then everyone would dis me because I be spending too much time "Playing Games" you know how people are. PS. Underwater is possible, just have set the vehicle so it don't get harmed by water and also water has a bottem try crashing into the occean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satchel 0 Posted October 1, 2002 Considering the current game physics, Flashpoint would be well suited for a low- or zero gravity environment somewhere in space on a small planet or moon, or an underwater scenario. Seriously though, something like Starships troopers would be funny, problematic are animations of Bugs.... without proper tools to construct own animations for OFP you can forget about that.

Stag 0 Posted October 1, 2002 Anybody here remmber the old tabletop RPG called 2300AD? seems to me the situation there would be near as dammit perfect. Set after WW3, Mankind has regained and surpassed 20th century technology, but not by much. the big difference is the political picture. Ran would love it; France finally gets to be a superpower. The main action is set on a planet called Aurore, at the far end of French expansion. the enemy is a race called the Kafers. They live for violence, in fact it's the only way they can become more intelligent. when not in a combat situation they appear to be retarded, but once the shit hits the fan, their equivalent of adrenalin hits the system. They are already strong and fast, so this particular potion enhances intelligence instead. All in all, one of the coolest alien species I've ever come across:) You can imagine this makes things a bit brutal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruskiesrule 0 Posted October 1, 2002 Warhammer mod, its set really far in the future, but after a great war, and lots of technology has been lost! Imperial gaurd are armed with laser weapons, But the Space Marines are armed with weapons that fire a sort of explosive sabot bullet. It has a wide veriety of tanks, only problem is alot of them have more than 1 turret! They are alot of different weapons, they have 4 bolters alone, Bolter, Bolt pistol, Heavy Bolter, Storm bolter. Bolter and bolt pistol according to game rules are exactly the same, cept bolt pistol only takes up one hand! Heavy bolter fires a larger shell And storm bolter (maby fires the same cal bullet as bolter, but i expect smaller) fires at a very fast rate! They also have aircraft, some that could be classed a chopper (low flying hovercraft) and proper fighters. Sombody made a dorp ship that actualy costs Å200!

nuddicrous 0 Posted October 2, 2002 </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">What about a V-Mod? You know, that tv series. Mankind against The Visitors. White shuttles and red/black-colored troopers with laser guns. Huge burger-like motherships<span id='postcolor'> Actually that's one of the mod ideas that I was considering, but thus far the only movie inspired things I've actually worked on has been for a non-sci-fi 80's flick Red Dawn where Patrick Swayze decided to forgo a career in cheesy dancing movies and fight off the communist invasion of north america. But a V mod would definitely be neat... now that I know how to retexture... ooh... ooooooooh!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HellToupee 0 Posted October 3, 2002 What about dune, have big sand planet and lotas def vechicles and sides to make, u could base it on the game series or more on one of the books, i havnt read em tho so i dont know much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HellToupee 0 Posted October 3, 2002 Hey this is a real old thread wasnt me who respawned it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadWolf 0 Posted October 4, 2002 No, you didn't respawned it. Anyway dune would be nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuddicrous 0 Posted October 4, 2002 I respawned it with my timely referral to a V mod. Nevertheless, Dune would be an excellent mod... the soldiers are mostly just soldiers, the tanks are tanks and the planes are planes. Of course simulating a sandworm attack would be a sight to see.

cassandra 0 Posted October 5, 2002 what about a mod pertaining to the conspiracy theories of area51/s4/papoose-lake(a good reference is robert lazar who claimed to work in this facility for a short amount of time)? it doesn't sound all that unrealistic to me either. it would be quite modern and in a sense, futuristic.. thinking about it, you'd have alot of modern (and controversial) options involving very high tech or 'top secret' weaponry, aircraft and soldiers. I beleive those stealth bombers were developed at s4 and were top secret for 'many years' before it officially came into the public eye. there's a thought anyway.

DragoFire 0 Posted October 9, 2002 I've posted a simular topic in the O2 part of the Forum. My idea was to base most of the units/vehicles/etc... on the art-work from Masamune Shirow's Appleseed/M-99(Blackmagic)/Ghost in the Shell/etc... As these are set in the very near furture. It has Landmates (exosketons) (smaller versions of the HeavyGear), Multilegged weaponplatforms(able the size of a 50ton+ Mech), no antigrav devices, cars, motorbikes, copters, jets, and loads of gunners.

skibei_neko 0 Posted October 21, 2002 Sorry to resurect this. I have 2-3 things to say. 1. Fallout-inspired game would be perfect for OFP cause it would mainly be new skins and static. 1950's style propaganda posters. Bombshelters w/underground complexes. Bicylces and 1950 T-birds. Post nuclear fallout games could combine some of the simplicity of WW2-era weapons - everyone uses hunting rifles, pistols, "zip-guns" (rubber band powered pin one-shot pistol), moltovs. Players could fight over control of water resources. 2. Someone posted a pic about the Steve Jackson game Ogre. It was my first board game after chess that I played everyday. Also doable with OFP. 3. Although not Sci-Fi, but a Jagged Alliance mod would be cool. 4. I'm new to this community and OFP. I just ordered the game cause the demo was cool (and although the FPS wan't great...I cant run any newer game on my system). Question - Why BIS not release animation tie-in tools?
