As Relcom said, wrong game. Fallout is NOT meant to be multiplayer. At least not a main Fallout game. They can make spin-offs but the main Fallotu games are about being alone in a seriously cruel and harsh enviroment. And to survive of course.

I believe an MMO would work for this though. The world is just perfect.

I mean in both the original games you had companions....Dogmeat, Ian, Marcus, Torr, Vic etc whose to say another player couldnt drop in (a bit like in Fable 2 was talking about?). But then again it was born single player and it pwned single player.

MK a lot has changed since the older games. To say that this is not meant to be a multiplayer is totally ridiculous especially seeing as how it's shaping up, and how things do, and should change for the better. You guys are trying to make something that could only add to the experience a bad thing is beyond me. It's not like I'm knocking the game, but there are always things that can make games better. It's not like I'm saying it should be a multiplayer only either, but that should be an option especially these days this kind of thing should be expected. A good multiplayer=a better value. It's as simple as that.

Closing, I strongly believe that some games are not meant to be multiplayer and Fallout is one of them. Not the main Fallout experience but a spin-off would be more than suitable for a multiplayer. We already have the nice Fallout Tactics which has multiplayer and is rather fun.

And the Fallout MMO is indeed in works by Interplay.

As for multiplayer add value, I also disagree with that but that's mainly because I'm singleplayer fan and usually hate mp.

I just don't understand why it should it be a spin off? They already built the world, and characters so adding something like multiplayer is not that big of a task in comparison. Although I'm still talking about a decent multiplayer or otherwise they might as well not even add it. Thats the future of gaming since single player campaign only games, just as multiplayer only games are a thing of the past, and if you don't like the mp then simply don't play it. It's what the majority has come to expect for the price they're paying, and for obvious reasons. It's like saying for the same price you'd rather have a stripped down Dodge Neon over a fully loaded Cady. Sure you might not use all the features, but it's nice to know it's there, and who knows maybe someday you'll feel like using seat warmers.
