Re: FO:E RP Season 2: "Electric Scootaloo"

[Aonee]

((Its pretty much both. Thus why no one is quite sure what to call it. ))

[XT Vengeance]

((Alright then, lets try this.))

Lug Nut spends several minutes in deep thought after Major departed. After a while, he gets up and begins to wander the town, walking quite normally, despite his inebriation. He sees a workshop in the town, and decides to investigate.

Lug Nut walks in through the front door, and looks around.

[Aonee]

*Opens the door* Yes? What can I do for you?

[XT Vengeance]

"You have a nice variety of machines here," Lug blurts out, startled by the other pony. "It kind of reminds me of the shop I had back...well it reminds me of long ago. It is good to see that at least some of this type of equipment survived."

[Aonee]

Thanks. I've been mostly making sky-wagons, tanks, and the like, but I've been able to start looking into other things as well. Some robot repairs, terminal upgrades, things like that. *Steps aside* You want to come take a look around?

[XT Vengeance]

"Sure, do you have someplace I can hang my cloak though?" the large pegasus asks as he takes it off and folds the tattered grey cloak. "I'd rather not get this thing ripped up by moving parts again." His hoof-crafted armor, weapons, and saddlebags are now plainly visible, covering up large portions of his two-toned fur.

"I'd love to see what other kinds of machines you have here," he says, clearly in a better mood.

[Aonee]

Sure, there's a coat rack right to your left inside the door.
*Walks inside, to the garage. Dominating the view is a massive, half-built skytank, most of its frame is intact and several large guns have been mounted, but it still lacks in armor plating. Off in a corner is the remains of some kind of robot, that has clearly seen better days.*

[XT Vengeance]

Lug Nut hangs up his cloak, then trots to catch up to Aon. He stops when he sees the sky tank and lets out a low whistle. "Boy, I remember working on tanks back in the corps. Never saw that particular model though. I did overhaul some tanks though. Usually they were part of the convoys escorting us to our objective," he says wistfully. "I've always had a soft spot for complex machinery."

[Aonee]

You've probably never seen it because I have to build most of these things from scratch. If I'm lucky, whatever they're ping to be used for is simple enough I can modify a wagon or something, but normally I just have to plain build my own.

[XT Vengeance]

"Well back in the corps we didn't have time to do that kind of thing, as we were getting shot at almost constantly, but I have had a lot more time for it now. I've always preferred inventing over improving."

Lug looked around the room, his bright blue eyes memorizing all of the visible components, his mind already working full tilt coming up with ideas. "With tools like this, and a steady supply of scrap, there is almost no limit to what you could make."

[Aonee]

Yup. Still, most of the demand is for vehicles, so that's what u wing up making most of the time. Still, with all the caps I've made off of the whole war with Japony, I should be able to do what I want for a while.

[Aonee]

((I'm getting off for the night, cyall. ))

[XT Vengeance]

((later))

"You have to make money somehow to keep a shop like this. I probably would have had something like this if it hadn't been for the war," Lug says, shrugging his shoulders. "But I guess I'll just leave you to it then, I'm sure you've got your hooves full without me poking around and wasting your time."

[CamoBadger]

(( still no robo...))

[Tytan]

((I don't know 'bout you mountain peoples Camo, but us low landers got a fuck ton of snow... (Non asshole translation, Robo's replacement got snowed in and he has to work late now.)))

[XT Vengeance]

((That sucks. I know I will have to get rides to places when it snows here. Motorcycles don't exactly agree with snow and ice. Rain isn't much of a problem though. anyways, I'm free for games or whatever for a bit longer, if anyone wants.))

[Tytan]

((I was thinkin' of playin' Metro on hard. That make your weapons do more damage right?))

[CamoBadger]

((We didn't get a LOT of snow, but we did have a blizzard most of the day. 30mph winds, 15degrees not counting windchill, everything fun.
Also, you people outside the mountains need to learn to deal with snow.

Also also, damnit.))

[XT Vengeance]

((I really want to play that game, but these strange black bars keep appearing over the whole screen. Like a barcode or some shit got mixed into the whole game.))

[Tytan]

((I got it for Xbox... every problem solved.))

[XT Vengeance]

((I know that I can just check the steam forums for a fix, but I am lazy, and I have a strong urge to play morrowind again. Now if I could only get it to fraking install properly. Damn old games.))

[Guest]

((Okay, I'm writing a short epilogue for Major, and I realized that he'd need a job. Mr. Blues' seemed like a good fit.))

((Neon also runs a repair shop. It focuses on clocks though.))

[Orm]

((I was thinkin' of playin' Metro on hard. That make your weapons do more damage right?))

((Yes it does, you also find less ammo and filters.
Though if you have 240MS points I'd recommend getting the Ranger Pack.
It adds Ranger Easy and Ranger Hardcore.
RE gives guns the most damage, and you find the least ammo and filters.
RH is the same, except you lose the HUD.
You also find 2 more guns in the game.))

[Tytan]

((I... think I'm okay holding onto my money.))

[Orm]

((Okay.))

[Guest]

((So, it's five dollars to change a few settings?))

[XT Vengeance]

((Yeah. I think that is kinda dumb.))

[Orm]

((My bad it's actually 240 points.))

[CamoBadger]

((That's why you get it on PC and those difficulties come already in the game...))

[Orm]

((Yeah it was an update on PC.
I still think it was worth it.))
